New Youx, Nov.30.—[Special Telezram to T Bre.] —Chauncey M. Depew has for the third time denicd that he was present at ary wceting at which the railroad clearing house was discussed. I was not present at the conference,” he said, “and know nothing aboutit. No road in which [am interested has angthing 1o do with it. We are not in- terested in the matter of the rumored clear- ing house, and 1t only concerns some of the southwestern lines. No trunk line and none of the northwestern line: far as T know, have been consulted on the subjeet. Un: doubtedly a clearing house is formed or is being formed for the southwestewn. roads, but that is all I know about it.” ““You are also reported to have held amys- torious conference with President Roberts of the Pennsylvania road,” was suggested. ““Mr. Roberts and myself certainly con- ferred together recently, but we only talked over matters rolating o the traflic arrange- ment affecting our roads, and our conference had nothing to do_with the formation of the clearing house you roferred to, or to any 100l, trist or anything else except what T Luve mentioned.” L Anarchists Not Thankful.

The National and State Tickets, Des Morses, Ta., Nov. 30.—[Special to Tis Bre.)—The ofiicial canvass of the votes for state officors shows but little variation from the vote for the national ticket, despite the threats of the railroad men that they would cut the whole state ticket. Secrctary of State Jackson runs only 21 votes behind the national ticket, while Attorney General Stone runs 902 alead of it. Auditor Lyons falls behind 507 votes, but_that is chiefly due to special effort made by his opponent, Swede, to get complimentary votes from his countrymen. Judge Granger, for the supreme court, runs 1,493 behind the’ national ticket, ind that shows about the extent of the rail’ influence in that_dircction, as he was singled out by the roads for special cutting, not_ being thcir favorite.

The subject was introduced, 8o General Chalmers says, by himself. He said to General Harrison that all he desired to ask from the new adminis- tration was that it provide for and insist on a fair election and a fair count of the votes cast n the south. This brought from Gen- eral Harrison the foljowing direct statement, spoken in a forcible and carnest manner: It is a fallacy to recoznize such a thing as asouthern question, While I am president 1 shall only demand that the veople of the whole country shall obey the laws of the na tion without reference to the section in which they may live.
