"NO PERSONAL ISSUE" IN MY FIGHT ON TOLLS, SAYS CLARK -- Speaker Dramatically Declares That His Fight for Exemption for American Ships Is Made on Principle. NOT SEEKING PRESIDENCY; FOR WILSON IN 1916. Refuses to Be Made the Goat.and Will Not Whimper if Retired From Pub lic LifeVote on Bill To-Night. By Samuel M. William. (Staff Correspondent of The Evening World.) WASHINGTON, March U. Spe.tker Clark, closing Hit debate against the Panama retval hill his afternoon, Jisappolnted those who expected him to attack I'resident WiNon. He disclaimed any personal issue with the I'resident, declared lie believed Mr. Wilson was actuated by the highest patriotic motives, and that there was no breach in the Democratic party. He Wglkfd at lenjrth aiiainst the President's con tention and declared ih.it "ihe amaiiiK request of the President tor the repeal, like the peace nl God, passeth all understanding." Me added that it the President had reasons "which are not utterly untenable and 'which compel him in make this request," he had not fivetl them in ihe lliuise. The Speaker differed with the President that bill exemption ;is "g mistaken economic policy, but admitting dispute on that point, proposed tha! the exemption be suspended two years. He oontenvled that the President was mistaken in his view that the exemption was repugnant to the Hay-Pauncelote treaty.

He attacked the attitude of House i Democrat who have led the Presi- ' dent's fight for ths toll exemption repesl. Referring to published dee- , larstions that his opposition to tha I Pretider.t was "tha opening gun ef his fight for th nomination in 1916," th Speaker declared he had told all to whom ha had apeken about tho 1416 situation that if tha President's 1 Administration were a aueoeaa Mr. Wilson would be r elected, and if it were a failure "ths nomination would not be worth having." As to his own future, the Speaker insisted he could be happy without the Presidency, th Speakership, or even with retirement to private life should his constituency ao determine. "There is no personal issu be tween the President of the United States and myself." he said. "I trust thr never will ba. I have at no time uttered one word of criticism , of the President. At no time, ao far as I am informed or believe, has tho Presidsnt said ons single word of c, iticism of me.
