"TEDDY" DOES NOT WANT 1T.
Gov. Roosevelt Says He Is Not n Vice
Presidential Candidate.

Albany, N. Y, Feb. 13.-Gov. Roose-
velt yesterday gave out statement
relative to the vice presidency, in
which he declares that he will not ac-
cept the honor under any circum-
stances. His statement follows:
I'm view of the continued state
ments in the press that 1 may be urg-
ed as candidate for vice president,
and in view of the many letters that
reach me advising for and against
such course. it is proper for me to
state that under no circumstances
could l or would I accept the nomina-
ton for the vice presidency. 1t IS
needless to say how deeply L appre-
ciate the honor conferred upon me by
the mere desire to place me in SO high
and dignified position. But it seems
to me clear that at tbs present time
my duty is here in the state whose
people chose me to be governor. Great
problems have been faced and are be-
ing partly solved in this state at this
time and if the people so desire hope
that the work thus begun l may help
carry to a successful conclusion"
The governor in giving out his state
ment said: "And / am happy TO state
that Senator Platt cordially acqui-
esces in my views in the matter"

Refuse to Try McGinert.

New York, Feb. 13.-The New York
presbytery yesterday decided not to
try DR.. Arthur G. McGiffert, of Union
Theological seminary, ON the charges
of heresy preferred by Rev. G.. w.
Birch, the clerk of the presbytery, at
the January meeting. A resolution
was adopted declaring that the action
of the presbytery in December, when
it decided not to try DR.. McGiffert for
heresy, but to disavow his teachings,
was sufficient under the circumstances
and that the charges should not be
considered
