AT ' O r\ AT IN b U IN Senator McL'aorin Withdraws Resignation He will Use His Own Judgment In Voting Upon National Questions and Will Not be Bossed by Any One, Etc. Senator McLaurin, in response to the chiding of Gov. McSweeney, has withdrawn his resignation. This will now no doubt, befollow3(1 by a similar action on the part if Senator Tillman, who has already declared that he would not withdraw his resignation until McLaurin had done so. There is some speculation as to whether or not Tillman will resign next summer in order to meet McLaunn and try conclusions in the primary. Governor McSweeney yesterlay received the following letter from Senator McLaurin: Hcnnettsville, S. 0. .June 1, 1901, Governor M. B. McSweeney. Dear Sir: Your letter of tho 31st of May, in which you decline to accept my resignation as Unitad States senator, is received. The grounds upon which your Inclination is predicated aro, that the people are entitled to one year :>f peace and freedom from political battles and bitterness," and that a campaign this year would he "a calamity to the State to be torn asunder by a heated canvass in the off year in politics without iny possible good to come of it. As an* additional reason you suggest that any disturbance of the Harmony of the people in their work for the advancement of the material prosperity of the State might rosultin retarding this progress. I appreciate fully the force of the reasons given by you, and the effects upon the people of the State of a heated and strife-producing contest for United States senator this year. For the sake tlf t,hft nrnunarilu __ , , O..M happiness of the people of this State," I am willing to bold 60 to my commission as United States senator, and to continue tc serve the State as I have done in I CASH R YOU W1 he cash buyers v daining ol dull li i Ties. lous husines.

Your suggestion that it is no your purpose by your officii) action "to prevent the fullest an , freest discussion of all publi questions and the education o the people along all politico lines" is in accord with you patriotic course in reference t the resignations.

Basis of Indemuitv Arrangement Practically Settled Washington, June G.?Ambassadors from most of the European countries were in conference with Secretary Hay today, mainly because it was diplomatic day, which afforded an opportunity for discussing the State of the Chinese negotiations. Jt is understood that middle ground on Ihe modus Vivendi, as it is referred to, concerning the form of payment of the indemnity is likely to be settled by a joint and several guaranty. This will be in complete accord with the American view that there should bo no joint guaranty, in tho sense of binding each government to securing the payment of the entire $337,000,000. It will be joint, however, in the formal aspect of being executed by all of the powers jointly, at the same time and probably in the sauie instrument. This instrument doubtless will include a provision by which each government is to assume no liability beyond the amount of its own share of the indemnity, in tho ease of tho United States, is limited to $25,000,000.
