M'KINLEY TO SAMPSON.
Gives the Impostor Credit for the San
 tiago Victory

Washington, March 23.-Admiral Sampson has received from the president the follow ing reply to his letter of March g, 1899: Executive Mansion, Washington, March 1S, 1S99
 My dear sir-I am in receipt of your very considerate letter of the 9th instant, in which you express desire that, without reference to your own interests, the other naval officers ho rendered such conspicu- ous service in the naval campaign in the West Indies may have the advancement which you recommended for them, and in which you ask nothing for yourself. I highly commend this disinterested action on your part. Let me assure you that l have the highest appreciation of your ser vices as commander-in-chief of the Atlan- tic naval forces during the Spanish war, in blockadng Cuba, cooperating with the army, directing the movements of the great number of vessels under your orders, and at last after the most effective prepara- tion, consummating, with the gallant off, cers and men under your command, the destruction of the Spanish fleet. It as in recognition of your services and of your great skill that I recommend you to the senate for the advancement which you had earned. Very truly yours,
 VIM. MKINLEY.

THE NOMINATION
 OF GENERAL OATES As a Delegate to the Constitu-
 tional Convention HE RAISED THE QUESTION Of His Candidacy for President of That Body-He has Received Letters
 Asking that He Allow His
 Name to be Used.
HE RAISED THE QUESTION

Montgomery, March 23.-The nomination of General ". c. Oates as delegate to the constitutional convention from the Twenty third senatorial district by a large ma jority vote brings his name forward as candidate for president of the convention. The representative of The Age-Herald called upon General Oates this evening and asked If he would be a candidate for the presidency of the convention. General Oates replied that he had received a num- Der of letters from nominees to the con- vention, asking him to become a candi- date and that while he had not fully de- termined to enter the race, he thought it probable that he would. This announce ment from such a prominent figure in state politics gives new interest to the proposition of who will be president of the convention. There is probably no strong CT constitutional lawyer in the state than General Oates He was a leading member of the convention of 1876 and since that time has served several terms in the na- tional congress. He was elected governor in 1894. His services in these positions and his long study of constitutional law espec- tally fit him for the position of president of the convention. KERSH.

 Trip to Cuba.

Talladega's Delegates

To the Editor of Tine Age-Herald:
 There is statement from your corre- spondent here in yesterdays issue of your paper I desire to correct. It is in reference to the list of delegates to the constitutional convention, and is as follows: 'The other nomination Is between Cecil Browne and pr. John w. Heacock, with chances favor- able to MT. Heacock." It was at the time your correspondent wrote this almost uni- versally conceded that MT. Brown would share the honors with MT. Whitson at the state convention and he has today been elected. pr. Heacock did not appear be- fore the convention at all. The vote is as follows Browne SEA-; Whitson, 107. List of delegates: J. H. Johnson, J. H. Dona- hoo, T. P. Johnson, A. O. Riser, J. C. Will Hams, w. T. Campbell J. l.. Wilkes, J. F. Reynolds, J. K. Divon and J. O. Adams.
