WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Senator Lodge
of Massachusetts, has returned to the
city from Canton, where he visited
President Mckinley. In an inter.
view he said:
'sThere is no place in the gift of the
president that would tempt me to give
up the position of senator from Massa-
chusetts. The very fact that went to
Canton would indicate, it would seem
to me, that had no application on file.
AS matter of fact, I would not permit
anyone to say anything for me. There
is no place desire other than the one !
now occupy"
Further than this the senator would
not talk concerning his visit.

has been in the East for 10 days, con-

has returned home and announced that
he had called meeting OF, the execu-

policy decided upon.
