MIR. BURToN's POSITION.
Tells of the Squabble Among the
 Cleveland Republicans.

Washington. June 6.-Representative Burton of Ohio today gave out state ment as to the present controversy in his district in which he says
 Notwithstanding a statement of the position of the Republican candidates at Cleveland has been clearly made. 1t seems to have been very commonly mis- understood. Their protest against the seelction of a chairman at the dictation of federal officials did not originate from a desire to dictate party management nor to assert any peregotative of theirs. They recognized that the party at Cleveland was divided into two factions. The pre- sent candidates are not identified with those factions and they earnestly desired to select for the head of the party com mittee a man not identified with either. They chose, after consultation with men of all factions, MT. Rowland, young lawyer of excellent standing, who met the demands of the situation. The action of the candidates was thought to anord the means of entering the campaign without the handicap of party division, hut their wish was rudely disregarded. The course of these officials we feel sure, was a very grave error"
