INDi.NAPObIS ( , Sept. 28.-Colonel John
C. New , \ho managed ex-PresIdent Horrl-
\ son's campaign for the nominaton for the
J presidency , and was consul general 01 the
Unite States at London during the Harri-
son admlnlslraton , In an authorlzell Inter-
view with a repreeutatve ul the Al'Joclted
press today Eald :
"General Harrison does not desire to run
for the presidency , and Is In no lens ! a

drawn In the Interels : 01 anyone are with-
out foundatIon In tact. Were hIs advice
solicited he would select neither Mr. Mc.

. "
dldate for president.
Colonel New declined to stale whom Gen-
oral Harrison woull , refer as a candidate.
The Intervl9w Wa called out by the pub-
ilcatlon 01 a dispatch Irom New York under
Icaton
date at the 25th Inst. , which made the following -
lowing statement
It Is said upon the authority at n repub-
Ican Iradcr or national reputation that
Benjamin Harrison has withdrawn from
the prlsllental race. Ind hal named 'VI-
lum McKinley lS his reslluary legatee.

DISCOUNTING THE INTEltVIEW.
INl\NAIOI.IS , Sept. 28.-The News edi-
torialy considers Mr. New's statement
highly II/nlfc:1t owing to New's clul'J re-
Idtons with Mr. HarrIson. I says : "New
prefaces his sweeping denial at the story
that Harrison hal withdrawn In the Interet't
. that Harri-
at McKinley with tle statement -
I son docs not deslro to run for the presi-
dency and Is In no sense a candidate We
be1eva that this II an alogether exact l'tate.
ment 01 Harrison's position , so tar as It
goes. He Is not a candidate , and has not
heen a candidate , In the sen' ; that McKinley
and Je d and others are candidates. At the
same time , HarrIson has felt and , has said
that Ir the party believes ho Is the n1 : to
i bear the presIdental L'tandarll : next year. ,
his scsc at duty and loyalty to party and '
country will not Permit hm ! to refuse the
party's mandate. Mr. New's statement
' o leaves him still In 11reclsely the < ' .me posi-
. tion. He Is not seeking and he will not
seek the nomination . I the party nomi-
nates him he will obey the pty's call. That
being Harrison's position , It would naturally
follow that he could not withdraw , In the In-
' terett at McKinley or any other man. "
The News thinks that Ir Mr New's state-
, mont that "Harrison would select neither
Ieed nor McKinley as the republican candi- :
11ato" Is Interpreted as meaning that the ex-
president Is opposed to beth Reed and Mc-
Kinley It Is untrue. There can hardly be a
doubt that tll daclaraton will have Its elect
on the candidacy at both these men. The
sItuatIon then Is just thIs :
"Mr. HarrIson Is not a candidate fo ? the
4 nomination , and so or courSJ has not wIthdraw .
draw In the Interest of any other cmdldate.
_ lie would not - advl e the nomination of either
Mr. Hert or Mr. lc1lnley , He stalls now

WAShINGTON , Sept. 28.-Tomorrow Lieu-
'tet.ant General John M. Schofeld retires
from active service and goes on the retired
list , after an evcnUul career In times of
war and p ace. 1.01 more than seven years
he has been In command at the army , and
since ebruary last he has had the rank
ot lieutenant general by specIal act of con-
gress.
General Schofeld was born In Chlutauqu :
cccnty , New York , September 29 , 1831 , and
was avnolnled to the military academy from
-
Illinois In 1849. Entering the artillery
18&3 the
branch as I second lieutenant tn ,
outbreak ot the civi' war found hIm a cap-
tnln at the First artillery In 18tH. lIe was
In active service In the west throughout the
actve
hostilities , and In 186 was a brigadier [ gen-
eral , In command at the Army of the Cum-
berland. During reconstruction tmes he was
In command at the First military district
( state ot VirginIa ) , for a little over a yer.
and for ten months was secretary 01 war ,
from June 2 , 1868 , to March H , 1869 , In
which later year he became : major gen-
oral , and after commanding several of the
army departments he became communder of
the army II 1888 upon the death of General
Sheridan.
General Schofeld Is one 01 the few
surviving veterans at the war who I
commande\ an army , who fought a
battle himself as such , and the
record of his actIve service In the field Is
full ot brilliant achievements. But In addition -
dlton to these he has accomplished In an
admlnlstratvo way muters of such sub-
staritial bereft to the ( army that his reputa-
ton might safely rest alone on them.
First of all , ho has been an artillery of-
fleer , and has kept constanty In view the
Importance ot bringing this arm at the serv-
lee up to perfectIon. As the senior member
at the fortifications hearth sInce its creation ,
he hs lost no opportunity to encourage In-
vemitlon and the development of modern
venton I
ordnance anti , \ coast detense. lie has In- ,
angurtld a system or higher education '
mong the younger members or the ordnance
and artillery branches that las nat remark-
ably successful resuls , iouiig officers who
showed special aptitude In the schools have
been sent to the arsenals by his orders.
Lyceum Instructon ! has been afforded others ,
and a complete instruction In spoclal
branches bas been gIven noncommissioned
officers and men by means at pamphlets prepared -
pared under the direction of General Scho-
field by experts In each branch.
In the wIder field at army reorganization
the general has played an Important part.
lie has for year been an earnest advocate
for the three-battalIon organization , and to
him Is owed the adoption at tie polcy at
concentratIng trool1 : n the great railroad
centers and at exposed points on the coasts ,
and the aban onment ot small posts. I Is
also a notable tact that under his admlnlstr-
tlol' of the army bas come an end at the
Indian wars that haye ravaged the western
country since Its settlement , which be at
least In part atributed to the skillful I hand-
lng or troops that has made It manltest to
even the Indians that their struggles would
he hopeless.
In the hour or civil dIsturbances the
general hu showu himself a most wise amid
discreet commander. Ho Is largely respon-
slblo for the admirable construction at the
posse comiatus laws which have never
been disturbed bY the courU ! , ; and Ilurlng time
great labor strikes at last summer In Chicago -
cage I was hut Iemonstraton , at' the law
that prevented any serious conc\ between

pursue a quite different policy.
In other words Spain Is to be given one
more chance to demonstmte her ability to

chances arc the United States wIll take the

SAN 1 IANCSlO ( , Sept. 2S.-An evening

In the opinion or many members at the
local bar the counsel for the dolense has
opened a door for the the admission at all
the evidence In the Williams' case at the
present case for the murder 01 Blanche La-
mont. During the examination at Sergeants
Hoynolls and Durke , who were called by lie
deCtun' , lue 'tons were naked concerning t

In the pastor's study. The prosecution may
claim the right to demonstrate that the
stahi on the shoe might have resulted tram

I ( ) at a person enterIng tt getting blood on
the re : t. The defense will fight any prop-
osiion that has for Its object getting befOre
the jury any tact regarding the Williams
murder.
The dIstrict attorney says he Is satisfied ho
has put In a very strong case , and does not
like to take the chance or Introducing the
testimony that might ue declared irrelevant
by the supreme court.
The defense does not seem to rely 80 much
on the alibi now as I did a few days ago , and
their efforts are now being devoted to an attempt -
tempt to fnl flaws In the prosecuton , Not
one ot Iimrrant's seventy-five classmates will

ho was there every member at the class
would know It. anti dozens wol11 ! appear and
tel at little Incltents that happened during
the icctumro whereby the presence at the accused -
cused was impressed on their minds. The
Elmplo fact that nobody recollects his pres-
enco Is proof positive to the prosecution that
he was absent.
If Glnerl Dickinson fails to put the students -
dents emi the stand , Mr. flames will cal them
In rebuttal . and although theIr testimony to
'
the effect that they do not Imow' whether or
not the defendant was at the lecture will he
negative In character. It will thorouphly Ils-
slpato from the mlnls at tie Jury any Impression -

which the rcc"rd 01 attendance at the college -
lege I kept I will be shown that hardly
a student has not at some tme or another
had the roil falsified by his classmate answering .
swerlng for him.
Durrant's hopes now rest on the ability of
his lawyers to so manipulate proceedings as to
creata a doubt In the mind at a juror , also as
to secure a disagreemnent. He can bull on
nothing more substantial , and I seems Im-
possible at the \ Ient writing that ho can
