after being notified of the agreement
between swisher and Scherr to with

An Associated Press telegram sent
out from Milwaukee reads as follows.
Judge Con- declares that he will
not reconsider his determination not
to become a candidate for governor.
His kilograms to leaders of both fac
tlons are clear and to the point and
leave no possible room for misinter-
probation.
Chief among his reasons for. de-
clining the honor is the present con-
dition OF his health"
