why CROKER RETURNS
Danger from the Sugar Trust In
vestigation Has Passed
Suggestion that He Sailed to Get
Out Of the Jurisdiction.
Dazed Politiofhs Can Only Guess
What 1t al Really Means.

Politicians are as deeply puzzled over
the announcement of ex-BosA Croker's
unexpected return from Europe AS they
we're over his sudden departure. Cro-
ker's actions during the past month
have been a mystery to the Tammany
followers who are not in his confidence.
and those who know the secrets OF the
jaclt-in-t The e-box-movements OF their for
mer chief keep the people guessing
There have been so many contradic-
tory statements made by Croker and his
friends as to the real cause OF his hasty
departure and return that It is doubt
full now II the people would believe the
real version OF the affair If 1t was made
public.
An entirely new theory was advanced
this morning. A man prominent In
political affairs and who Is well in
formed on the politics OF the city,
State and nation, said that II Is his
opinion Croker went to Europe not to
escape the Lexow Committee. but the
United States Senate Sugar-Investi
eating Committee. 1t was understood,
according to this authority, that Gro
ker's visits to Washington, which were
heralded to have been in the interest of
the Tariff bill, were really made to in
fiuence Senator's votes on the sugar
schedule in the interest OF the Sugar
Trust.
The same gentleman surmises that
Croker may have got wind that he
would be summoned to testify in the
himself beyond the jurisdiction Of the
Committee. When he went away 1t
vas the intention of the inauisitors to
sit two or three months, and now that
they have adjourned Croker may. feel
safe in coming back, so 1t is thought.
Another, and what is considered n
plausible explanation, is that Croker
Lexow Committee would adjourn at the
end of this week. and that he might re-
move the unfavorable feeling towards
him in the organization because he ran
