NEWS OF THE WORLD.
Mckinley Stops Third Term Talk.

OF late, there has been some talk IN po--
liticaI circles, in which Senator Depew and
Representative Grosvenor have taken part,
in favor of renominating Mckinley for
third term. The president on Tuesday
put an end to such a movement by issu,,
ing signed statement in which he SAID
in the most positive manner that he is not
and will not be a candidate for third
term and will not accept if it is rendered to
him. He says his only ambition Is TO
serve through the second term to the ac-
ceptance OF his countrymen and then do
with them his duty in the ranks OF private
citizenship. He thinks it best to speak
thus early in order that his silence may
not be misunderstood, and because there
are now matters of the gravest Importance
before the administration and country,
which might be preiudiced by even the
thought of a third term.
