Their Talk at the Capitol Was En-
tirely Frfendly-JudEe McComas
I'm the Cabinet,

In conversation with a Star reporter in
reference to the versions published of a
reported interview between himself and
Senator-elect Wellington. Judge McComas
said: Il have held several conversations
with Mr.. Wellington this winter, but all of
them were Of friendly character the last
quite as much as the first. 1 did not
talk with Mr.. Wellington and DR.. Booze in
the corridor of the Capitol. and, in fact, 1
have not seen DR.. Booze during the past
year.
The statement is false on the face of 1t,
for 1 would not have suffered any one to
address me in the manner reported without
swift and proper reply.
Il am bound to assume that DR.. Booze
whom l have not seen for year. and Mr..
Wellington, with whom 1 have each time
conversed in private. either when he came
will denoCnce this fabricated interview as
false in general and in its details. 1 never
heard Mr.. Wellington or any other person
else make any one of the unfounded state
ments attributed to Mr.. Wellington in the
publication
Regarding the discussion in which Mr..
McComas' name was mentioned for a cab
iEet position, the judge said:
"All my friends know that I am very
agreeably occupied with my duties on the
bench and that I ought to consider well
before leaving them for the cabinet. but
there is, of course, no occasion for ME to
consider the subject. The 4th of March is
near. We will all be pleased with the cab
met which Mr.. Mckinley is evidently Sc
lecting without dictation from anybody. /
have hoped and still hope he may select
good man from my own state. We have
a number of them there. and the people of
our state, including myself, would he graf
ifed II President Mckinley should select
any one of them.
"A little good humor, little judgment
ard little patience would be helpful, per-
haps."
Mr.. WellingtOn'a Statement.
Senator-elect Wellington is quoted as say
Ing to reporter at Cumberland in regard
to mis- meeting with Judge McComas: "Our
talk was of a confidential character. vet
altogether friendly, and did not treat of
matters Of interest to the public. 1t is
true we referred in an indirect way TO
questions which in tine future may be of
public interest. Some people are always
