Rear Admiral Schley a-rrived
in Chicago on the 25th amid im
mense, popular enthusiasm. It
was a splendid ovation from his
entrance to the city to the en
tertainments by the vaiious com
mittees. He put at rest, how
ever, ati idea of his becoming a
candidate for the. presidency.
He feels and wisely, too, that to
enter politics means to divide the
populor love and esteem that the.
American people bear for him
and this would bo a sacrifice he
would not make for the presi
dency. He prizes these manifes
tations of popular favor for what
they are and dobs not let them
turn his head '" The hero of Ma-
