port. Is that true?"
Il won't say a word about it, was the
reply.
According to dispatches from New York,
Mr.. Van wyck has also refused 10 talk
about the alleged conference. According
to the employees of the City Hall in New
York, the mayor was there Friday efter-
noon until o'clock, and during the time
the conference is said to have occurred.

the Admiral.
He declined TO give the names Of the
friends with whom he intends to advise or
TO say whether or not he had seen any
politicians while in Philadelphia.
The flood of letters and messages con-

in favor of the admission of Arizona, be

Mckinley would be willing. Mr.. Wilson
said. t. see the State admitted during the
