UNEXPECTED HAPPENED
McLaurin Declines to ST. on the
Court of Claims and ROOse-
yelt is Surprised.
Special to The State.

Oyster Bay, l.. l., July 21.-
The greatest surprise prevails in
official circles here tonight over
the refusal of Senator McLaurin
to accept the appointment of
Judge OF the United States court
Of appeals
The most surprised person is
President Roosevelt himself. 1t
Is said on the highest authority
that when Senator McLaurin
was the presidents guest at
luncheon here last Saturday a
week ago he assured the chief
executive that he would accept
the Office if offered him.
The president, it is said,
thought nothing more of the
matter as, according to a high
authority, &cLauriu had given
the president his practical assu-
rance that he would shortly
resign the son&tor~hip III order
to accept the now Office
1t is also stated Oh the same
high authority that TilIman's
proposed fight to prevent Nc
Laurin from accepting the office
would not have materiallzed if
McLaurin would have decided
to accept the ONCE
The president earnestly hoped
that McLaurin would take the
judgeship and he would have
helped to repudiate any effort
to prevent MCLaurim > accept
ance Tie opiulOu prevails in
official circles here that the chief
reason McLaurin had to refuse
the Judgeship was to continue
and even make more severe his
fight against Tillman in the
senate and will also make trou-
bic for those who circulated the
story that he sold himself for
the judgeship.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF 1T.
By Associated Press.
Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 21.-
President Roosevelt is in receipt
OF letter from Senator John l..
McLaur.n OF South Carolina decli-
ming the proffered appointment
to the vacancy on the bench of
the United States court OF aims.
The president, it can be said,
much regrets Senator McLaurin's
decision, as he believes that Mr..
Laurin's senatorial. experience
and his career AZ attorney general
Of South Carolina would have
rendered him a particularly good
addition to the courts of claims.
The president now is uncertain
what he will do about Senator Nc
Laurin. 1t is understood that he
Is anxious to appoint him TO some
position In recognition OF what
The president regards as his SER
vice to the country and his dem
onstrated ability in public life.
Senator McLaurins letter is couch.
ed in the most positive terms and
evidently was based in particular
UPON A NEWSPAPER ARTICLE
which accompanied the letter.
The article stated that the sena-
tor had sold himself for the pros
pect of getting such an Office as
that offered TO him. 1t can be
said, however, that the president
regarded such type OF accusa-
ton as beneath notice and sim
cerely regrets that Senator Nc
Laurin should have deemed
it necessary to pay any attention
to it.
Senator McLaurin evidently
has changed his mind about ac.
cepting the proffered appoint
ment since he was in Oyster Bay
on Inlv II At that ti,,,a ha IN

PRESSMEN'S UNION CONTEST
IL II for the Position OF Delegate
to international Con-
ventiOn.

A contest is being waged in the Press
mans union Of Omaha for the position OF
delegate to the international convention.
The candidates are E.. A. Willis Of the
Omaha Printing company and Ed NJ. Birch
OF the Rees Printing company. More than
local interest centers in the contest on
account Of questions which are to com
up in the international convention. The
press feeders. who are now a part Of the
pressmen's union, desire to form a sepa-
rate organization and carry into the new
society the platen pressmen. The cylinder
pressmen object to the division OF the
union and Mr.. Birch is an avowed opponent
Of the plan. while the position Of Mr.. Will
lis is not so we'll defined. For weeks the
campaign has been carried on, and the
result is so much In doubt that the friends
of both candidates claim the leading posi-
ton. The election will take place the
fourth Monday in April.
