eome the Nominee of His Party for the
once.
New York, Nov. 2T-Grover Cleveland
has sent the following letter to the
editor Of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle:
Princeton. Nov. rs, 1903.
stMy dear Mr.. McKelway:
81 have wanted for long time to say
something which I think should be said
to You before others.
.sYou can never know how grateful
am for the manifestation of kindly feel
ing toward me on the part of my coun-
trymen, which your initiative has
brought out.
"Your advocacy in the Eagle of my
nomination for the presidency came to
me as great surprise; and it has been
seconded In such manner by democratic
sentiment that conflicting thoughts of
gratitude and duty have caused me to
hesitate as to the time and manner Of a
declaration on my part concerning the
subject-if such declaration should
seem necessary or proper. /. ..
I'm the midst Of 1t all. and In full
view Of every consideration presented,
I have not for a moment been able, nor
am now able, to open my mind to the
thought that in any circumstances. or
upon any consideration. should ever
again become the nominee of my party
for the presidency. ~...- IT,.
MY determination not to do so is un-
alterable and conclusive. x.
"This you, at least, ought to know
from me: and should be glad If the
Eagle were made the medium of its
conveyance Ito the public.
every sincerely yours,
Signed: Grover Cleveland.
s.st. Clair McKelway, LII. D.,
Brooklyn, N. " .,t
The Eagle announces that It will now
support the nomination Of Judge Alton

LARGE SOCIALIST GAINS.
Partial Elections In Berlin for the
Municipal Council

Berlin. Nov. 27.-Partial elections for
members of the Berlin municipal coun-
Gil to-day resulted in large socialist
gains The voting was done exclusively
by electors of the third class in about
one-third of the wards. Out of sixteen
seats socialists were elected to twelve
as against seven in the present council
and they will partake in the second bal
loting in one ward.
The elections. like those for members
of the reichstag, indicate that the. poor
er classes of Berlin are rapidly desert
ing liberalism for socialism.

dinner which was given him at Young
hotel in Boston on Nov. 20 on the oc.
casion of his resignation from the super
intendency of the Concord reformatory
to become the head of the New York
state reformatory at Elmira. Over 200
friends were there, including some of the
leading public men of Massachusetts.
Among the speakers was Col. Josiah H..
Benton who presented the greetings of
the 600 members of the Vermont Asso-
citation of Boston. Mr.. Scott was
presented with gold watch, chain and
locket and responded very gratefully to
this gift from "a few of his friends" He
briefly sketched his career from his boy
hood in Vermont to the present time and
said he was going to Elmira because it
offered broader field for his life work.
