McCULLOUGH OUT OF RACE.

Statement.
Joseph A. M(i('ulloiiuh, of (Jroenvi
1 If, has decided to withdraw from
the race I'or I lie scnafu. His reasons
for retiring are set I'oiTh in the following
announcement, which lie <;ave
to the press this afternoon:
"When I accepted the position as
one of the receivers for the dispensary
fund I did not have time to consider
its hearing upon my candidacy
for the I'niled States senate, hut I

in no wise a political one. I do not

Richmond is a question asked, but
not answerable here, and speculation
is busy with the suggestion that lie
received some message while on the
train which caused a change in his
destination. That the cause was some
matter connected with the South
Carolina dispensary case is not
doubted, because on .Sunday when lie
left here he stated, as ho had stated
a week before, that lie was going to
Richmond to preside over the circuit
court of appeals. Yet on Monday ho
arrived in Washington. In view of
the announcement made in open court
the day before by Attorney W. F.
Stevenson for tin* commission, that
ils members would refuse to turn over
