WEST VIRGINIA AND TENNESSEE have received larger proportionate amounts than any other states, because they have made more effort to foster and promote & public school system.

The article in the Cibeinnati Gazeite repeating this story Which {s said to have been inspired by Mr. Blu‘ord Wilson, gives him the credit for making the discovery. and alleges that tha President was made aware of all the facts. Yesterday morning ex-Attorney Geueral Williams called at the White House and sbowed the article in question to the Presi- dent with the proceedings bad in committee on the subject. The Presideat nounced the insinuations against Mrs. Williams to be entirely devoid of foundation so far as any knowledge of his was concerned, and said it was untrue that any evidence to tnat effect had ever been submitted to him.
