Useless to Laurin'S

Columbus, s. C., June 5.-Senator Tillman, protesting against the Gov ernor's right to reject the Senatorial resignations, tonight withdrew his resignation. In his letter to Governor McSweeney, Senator Tillman says: II have Senator McLaurin's communica- tion in V hich he graciously consents at your request to hold onto his com- mission as United States Senator and continue to serve the State as he has done in the past to the best of his ability
 This leaves me one of three alter natives: To appeal to the Democratic Executive Committee to take up the matter and determine what the best interest of the party requires to be done; to appeal to the Senate itself to determine the question as to whether a resignation from that body to take effect at some future time is binding, or withdraw my own resignation.
 There are no precedents on this subject, because in the hundred and twenty-five years of our national life, with more than two hundred resigna- tions from the Senate, no Senator has hitherto been willing to occupy the despicable attitude now assumed by Senator McLaurin and forced on me.
 Game of Opera Bouffe.
 T am certain of one thing: That the Executive of a State has no authority to decline a resignation that has been rendered, and I am equally certain that your Excellency confined your ac- ton within legal bounds. that your ap- pointees would be seated in the Senate when that body meets in December and hold their seats until the legisla- ture should act in January. My chief regret is that I am forced by your action to engage in what the outside world will consider a game of opera bouffe, by withdrawing my own resig- nified and puerile action; but the pur- pose for which 1t was rendered has been thwarted by Senator McLaurin's s precipitious acceptance of Executive advice.
 Bob Acres has been outdone for once. I have already said I had no motive or purpose in resigning except that to force McLaurin's and there Is nothing for me to do but accept the situation and withdraw my own resig- nation, if it be lawful to do so."

MRS. EDDY WINS OUT.
Judge Orders Verdict for Defendant
 in Famous Libel Suit.

Boston, June 5-"I have examined this libel with great care, both while the ar- guments were going on and during the trial. I think the plaintiff has sustained her case, as I have already intimated, upon the matter of publication. As re- gards the publication, in the church, there is no evidence that any one there understood the alleged libel as applying to the plaintiff so that she cannot re- cover damages upon this count, because she has shown no injury from It.
 'I shall therefore be obliged to order a verdict for the defendant"
 With these words Judge Bell this after noon brought to a sudden end the famous Sl5OOOO libel suit brought by Mrs. Jose phine Curtis Woodbury of Boston against Rev. Mary Baker Eddy of Concord N. H., the founder and present head or the Christian Science Church.
 Judge Bell ordered the jury to fnd Tor Tor inc defendant, which it accordingly did in the usual form.

 William L. Wilson was devoted to lofty ideals. Although a man of great learning and pronounced literary tastes, he actively participated in pub lie affairs and gave to his country his best service. Those who were asso- ciated with him learned to respect him for the purity of his motives and the sincerity of his nature; while his ad- vocacy of measures of legislation was so able as to win for them the fullest hearing from their opponents"

CUBAN coNVENTIoN.
Instructions from Washington Have
 Not Yet Arrived.

Havana, June 5.-The official in structions from Washington regarding the PIatt amendment have not arrived.
 The conservatives are not hopeful of holding the fifteen who voted in favor
 of the resolution adopted the Platt
 amendment.
 At several meetings there has been
 discussion tending to embitter the dei- egates who insisted that they voted
 in good faith and with the understand
 ing that the United States would ac- cept the amendment as passed. The first draft was not sent to Washing ton.
 At the request of President Capote,
 General Wood asked Secretary Root If
 the amendment could be accepted with
 the explanations added to the clause.
 Secretary Root wired, No, better &C.,
 cept it without
 The report was then changed, the
 original amendment being accepted
 with the understanding that it would
 have the interpretations given by Sec retary Root. General Wood wired
 the report to Washington Sunday, 1t being the first full report sent out. | Secretary Root telegraphed Tuesday Just after the Convention voted, that Washington could not accept the in- | terpretations and explanations. At meeting of the fifteen last even
 ing it was said that General Wood | told the committee up to the last mo-
 ment that the United States would be | satisfied.
 General Sanguilly said at +oday's | meeting of the convention that if the Instructions specifically stated that there could be no interpretation or ex- plantations added. the convention should
 vote for or against accepting the
 amendment without further argument. There seems to be feeling that, if | the instructions are in the form of an
 ultimatum. the Convention will unani-
 mously refuse to accept the amend
 ment and will then dissolve.

 Had you read carefully my letter addressed to you and to Senator Mo Laurin, you must have seen that I did not express any desire to compel a member of the United States Senate to hold his commission and exercise the functions of that office If he choose tC surrender it.
 My sole purpose in returning the resignations' was to ask you gentle men to consider calmly and thought fully the consequences to the people of what judged to have been nasty act and what you admit to have beer a hasty act, and I must confess that am somewhat surprised at the tone oi your answer 10 my request. I consid- cred the course which I took in this matter to be for the best interests oi the people of South Caoflina, and I am responsible to them alone for my action, and furthermore, I still believe that my course has met the approval of majority of the citizens of the State. nor do consider them unthink- ing citizens. but men who know and recognize as fully as any people on earth the rights and duties and re- sponsibilities of citizenship and who do not need the services of any one to tell them their duty.
