FUX JUST BEGUN.
Senator IHcLiauriii Intimates
That There i Diversion
Ahead.
Washington, June 10. Senator Mc
Laurin, who has just returned from
South Carolina, was a caller at the
WThite House this morning. He declin
ed to discuss the political situation in
the Palmetto State and his controver
sy with Senator Tilman further than to
say that he proposed to continue the
same line of action which he had been
following for some time. He intimated
that the fight was not yet over; in fact,
that it was only just beginning. He
would not, however, state what he in
tended to do, because it would give
his opponents an advantage which lie
did not wish to allow them .
When asked concerning Senator Till
man individually, Senator McLaurin
said: "He has called me a manly dog.
and there the matter rests. That was
his first argument and it is his last. I
must decline to discuss his attitude."
Senator McLaurin said that he has
business in Washington at present in
the interest of the Charleston and
West Indian Exposition, which begins
in Charleston in December. The gov
ernment has agreed, in view of the fact
that an appropriation was made by
Congress, for the exposition to loan a
portion of the exhibit at Buffalo, if the
Charleston people provide a suitable
building. This they intend to do. The
matter of allowing certain goods which
came in bonded for the Pan-American
Exposition and which the Charleston
directois wish to secure, is still unset
tled. Secretary Gage has the ques
tion under consideration at present.
If there is found to be no legal hin
drance some of these goods, especially
those from the West Indie and Cen
tral American countries, will be per
mitted to go to Charleston.
NARROW ESCAPE.
Small Boy Has a Close Suave for
His Life at the Depot Today.
A small boy, walking carelessly along
the platform at the Southern depot at
non today, had a narrow escape from
death. A shifting engine was backing
towards the west, and the boy was
walking in the same direction. The
engine bell was ringing, but the boy
seemingly did not hear it, and was only
warned by the shouts of a bystander,
and the friendly hand of the man on
the rear of the tender who reached out
to shove him away before the engine
should strike him. He did not seem
scared at all by his narrow escape,
but continued unconcernedly on his
way.

M'KINLEY WANTS
NO THIRD TERM.
MAKES A PERSONAL STATEMENT
SAYS THAT HE DOES NOT
WANT IT AND WOULDN'T
HAVE IT.
Holds A Long Formed Purpose
to Retire to Private Life When
His Second Term is up Great
Interests of Administration
and Country now at Hand.
By Wire to The Telegram.
Washington, June n.-
The following personal
statement from the Presi
dent was given out at the
White House today :
" I regret that the sug
gestion of a third term has
been made. I doubt
whether I am called upon
to give it notice.
But there are now
questions of the gravest
importance before the ad
ministration and the coun
try, and their just consid
eration should not be pre
judiced in the public mind
by even the suspicion of a
thought of a third term.
In view, therefore, of the
reiteration of a suggestion
of it, I will say now, once
for all, expressing a long
settled conviction, that
not only I am not and will
not be a candidate ior a
third term, but would not
accept the nomination for
it if it were tendered me,
My ambition is to serve
through my second term
to the acceptance of my
countrymen, whose gen
erous confidence in me is
so deeply appreciated, and
then with them to do my
duty in the ranks of
private citizenship.

A Man and Wife Found Dead
in Bed in a Chicago Hotel.
Chicago,June 10. Side by side, each
with a bullet wound in the temple, the
dead bodies of L. Hartman and his
wife were found in their bed at the
Great Northern Hotel, this evening,
The room showed no evidences of a
struggle, the covering of the bed well
tucked about him, but the revolver
clutched in the right hand of the hus
band told the story of the double trag
edy. Of the pair that courted death so
successfullynothing is known by the
managers of the hotel, beyond a report
that the man has wealthy connections
in New York, and that the woman ap
parently was once an actress under the
stage name of Rose Wolet. From in
formation given by a woman who in
quired for them this morning, it is
supposed that the case is one of a run
away marriage with death as the re
sult of despondency over the obduracy;
of an unforgiving father.
Hartman and his wife registered at
the hotel on June 6, giving as their
addressNew York, Both were stylishly
dressed, and appeared to be persons of
means. They did not mingle with the
other guests and spent most of the time
in their rooms They were reserv
ed in manner, but it Is surmised that
they were on their wedding trip. Early
Sunday nightj they .retired to theL
apartments and nothing was seen of
them until this evening, wbjen they
were found dead in bed. The chamber
maid tried to gain entrance to the room
but was unable to do so. Later in the
day she repeated the attempt with the
same result. Repeated knockings fail
ed to obtain an answer, and the hotel
office being notified, the room was
broken into tonight, and the discovery
was made of the double tragedy.
Several Wrong Doers.
The mayor had several cases yester
day afternoon at his matinee. Two
cariage drivers were made to disgorge,
because they went off, leaving their
teams in the street. The liquor casea
growing out of the arrests on Sunday
were dismissed, the crippled negro,
Wharton, being warned that if he was
again caught he would be sent to the
poor house. A white man from near
Jamestown was fined a small amount
for being drunk and down.
Sample Cups of Coffee.
The Sculls Perfect Coffee Company
have an exhibit of their coffee in tho
store of Messrs J. W. Scott & Company.
The exhibit is in charge of Mrs. DeWitt
and she takes a deal of pleasure in
serving coffee to any person who likes
the drink. The coffee she makes is
very fine, and well worth a trial.
A handsome thermometer has been
placed in front of the store of J. W.
Scott & Co. It is an advertisement of
the Santiago Cigar, and is a good thing
on a. hot day.
