The bosses Of the Citizens State party began
TO murmur yesterday against Col. Roosevelt.
They circulated their murmura by means OF

they said that though they were the first to
offer a nomination to Col. Roosevelt they
now feel toward him as toward an
opponent. because. although he Endorsed
their preliminary declaration Of principles with
the words These are all right. he had declined
later to accept their nomination. and that
therefore they felt that he was not the straight

The facts OF the case are. SO Col. Roosevelt's

that Col. Roosevelt distinctly told the Citizens
people when they made their first advances to
him that he did not commit himself in any way
TO accept their nomination.
With'that understanding they WOre informed
they were perfectly welcome to put out any
declaration OF principles they pleased. They
sent to the Colonel q preliminary copy OF their
declaration with an inserted statement under

Frederic R. Coudert was asked yesterday
by q reporter for H Sun whether he was
still a sound money Democrat, notwithstand-
Ing his support OF Van Wyck for Governor. and
II. considering that the present Democratic
Congressman from this city voted unanimous
ly for the Teller bill. and considering also that
the next Legislature would select a United
States Senator. he would also support the
Democratic candidates for the Senate and As
sembly and for Congress.
MI, Coudert answered that he was. most
decidedly. as much Of a sound money man as
he had ever been. but that he did not consider
the money question an important issue at pres
emit, and thought that 10 might be a wholly
dead one by the next Presidential election.
Sound money. he said, was certainly not a
State issue and was not referred to in the plat
form; therefore he would vote the straight
Democratic ticket.
To the second question he made a similar
the straight ticket. including the candidates
for the Legislature and Congress without re-
gard to their. attitude toward the relatively
minor money issue.
