The Idaho senator left the White House at 10:556 a. m.. and refused to add to his earlier statements that he would not accept the nemination at the hands of the Cleveland conven- tion. Diseussion between the president and Senator Borah was at considera- ble length. The senator declined to go into any details. “My position in respect nemination 1s irrevocable” Borah said. “It has not changed and it will not change.” Senator Borah said he had sent a Lelegram to former Senator Beveridge of Indiana, to be read to the conven- tion if by any chance his name was placed in nomination.
