ANOTHER ROOM LAUNCHED.
PARK COMMISSIONER WOODRUFF MEN,
TONED FOR NOMINATION FOR
CE-PRESIDENT.

a new political boom sprung In Brooklyn
yesterday. 1t that Of Park Commissioner
Timothy L. Woodruff for Vce-President.
Strange TO say. 1t was sprung almost In the
presence of Governor Morton. A Brooklyn paper
yesterday contained the announcement that the
state Club had. at a meeting on Thursday even
Ing. Endorsed Mr.. Woodruff as a good running
mate for Major Mckinley. When Mr.. Woodruff
read the reports OF the Endorsement. he sought
the proprietor OF the newspaper. and said that
he appreciated the joke highly. The newspaper
man. however assured the Park Commissioner
that it was no joke, and that he was a sure
enough candidate In the sense that he had been
Endorsed by strong Republican organization.
a private dinner was held last night at the
Union League Club after Governor Morton had
left the city after reviewing the Sunday school
parade and taken luncheon at the Union League.
President William Berri. Of the Union League:
Mayor Wurster. Colonel George w. Price and
several others The subject OF Mr.. Woodruffs
proposed candidacy for the Vice Presidential
nomination was freely discussed and each OF
those VINO spoke upon II commended 1t In the
highest terms. Mr. Woodruff somewhat
overwhelmed by the manifestations of frendli-
ness toward him in that relation. He had been
assured OF the united Endorsement OF Brooklyn
Republicans for the Lieutenant tiOvernorshIp
and II had not entered his mind to look for the
National honor. notwithstanding the fact that he
had received letters from two or three Of his
friends, suggesting that while he was getting he
might as well get all he could. and that his
chances for securing the second place on the Ma
tional ticket were fully as good at the present
time as Mr.. Arthur's had been in 1880 or Mr.
Wheeers in 1876
When seen by Tribune reporter las. night
Mr.. Woodruff refused h speak Of himself as
candidate for the Vice Presidency. lie said that
the matter had been thrust upon him withou.
warning and that he needed TO consider the
matter a little before he declared his willing
ness 70 enter the field. His friends, however.
especially those who had had dinner with him
a. IN" Union League Club said that they were
thoroughly in earnest In their belief that he
would make strong candidate for the Vice
Presidency 1t IL apparent that II Mr.. Woodruff
Ihould abandon his search for the Lieutenant
Governorship and work for the Vicc-Pr,sidcncy
the field would be cleared for Mayor Wurster's
COvcrnorshp aspirations.
