Vilas Won’t Vote for McKinley.

Milwaukee, special: Senator Vilas spent Sunday in this city. He was asked by a Journal reporter: ‘‘Did you see the report in the Chicago Tribune ’that you said you would vote for McKinley. and that Mr. Cleveland would also? Is it so?” ‘‘Yes, I saw the statement. There 1b not a word of truth in it. I have never entertained such a purpose and I never heard Mr. Cleyeland say a word which would give the least suspicion that he had. The story is fiction_pure and simple, an election canard, when everything goes.”
