New York, May s.-Cio vernor Roose-
Welt STATED that he would leave Albany
for Washington today and would re-
main in the national capital until SAT-
5urday While in Washington he will be
the guest Of his sister Mrs. William
scowles.
Republican state officials make no
disguise Of their belief that this visit of
Governor Roosevelt 10 Washington is
primarily for political purpose and
they say that the governor has admit
tied that some political subjects would
be discussed while hesis there. Indeed,
the governor in converse ton with the
newspaper Correspondents last Week,
when he first stated his intention of
Visiting Washington. said that he had
no doubt that some political matters
would be considered by him while in
Washington.

Ilican politicians here that Governor

1.-The national leaders of the republican
party that he should be nominated for
governor of New York rather than for

Governor Roosevelt's personal friends
say they believe that by making a most

can win thousands of votes for the re-
publican ticket, and there might be
danger of these votes being lost If some
Republican not Identified with the meas

Further, they Say that it is already

dream of carrying the electoral vote of

therefore are making efforts to concen-

upon its state ticket. If the democratic
campaign is one devoted to winning the
state upon the democratic state ticket,

publican state ticket must be submitted

Chicago. May S.--Tne strike on the
Northwestern Elevated road, which has
kept construction work tied UP for more
than two weeks. was called OF yester-3
day and the union men will return to
work this morning.
Under the terms OF the settlement the
work on the structure. equipment and
stations is TO be pushed rapidly toScom-5
9pletion. so that regular schedule of
passenger trains may be inaugurated
June ], as is specified in the ordinance.
Officials Of the road says that with the
large force of men which is to resume
work today everything should be fully
finished by the end of the month, and
that there is hardly chance for any
further delays in opening up the sys-
TEN to the thousands of north siders
who have been waiting so long for rapid
transit
President D. II. Louderback, who has
just returned from Europe, brought
about the settlement. The strike was
called in his absence and he hurried
back 10 Chicago in the hope of patching
5upsthe differences and having the road
in running order before the expiration
of the time limit, which is set for May
3l The extension Of the ordinance pro-
vided that time should be taken out for
strikes, and this might have been a
protection for the company, but Mr..
Louderback was anxious that the people
and prospective patrons OF the road
should not be disappointed again.
Business Agent Frank NJ. Ryan, Of
the structural iron workers and Bust
ness Agent White of the carpenters had
a conference With Mr.. Louderback at
his office yesterday morning in regard
to the cause OF the trouBle. II was ex-
planned that the union men had been
called out because there were nonunion
carpenters working for Angus & Gindele
in the construction Of the stations. AS
these workmen had finished up the ma
Itcrial on hand and work was stopped, II
was pointed out that this grievance had
been removed and the business agents
consented to send their men back to
work.
TO hasten the work $50 structural iron
workers will be put on the various Sec
tons of the structure. thirty sheet metal
workers. fifty carpenters and a large
number OF painters. If necessary the
different forces of workmen will be In

boards OF registration are composed al-
together of members Of the national
party. In nine other wards the mem
sbers of the national party have repre-
sentatives on the boards. The union
democrats carried the entire boards In
two districts, while the republicans
elected only one member In the entire
city. In the country districts. however.
the republicans had better luck, and in
Matanzas they swept the whole city.
The representatives from other
provinces have not made the nationals
lists very jubilant, but still they say
they are sure to win every citysoffice,
as the registration boards, which are
sworn to perform their duties honestly,
will act also as election boards. The
result is that there is a great strife for
the national party nomination for
mayor OF Havana.
Estrada Mora, who resigned as act
ing mayor ostensibly to retire to pri-
svate life, is making strenuous efforts
to secure the nomination for mayor.
Miguel Gener, Civil Governor Nunez
and Ruis Rivera, the former secretary
of agriculture, who was practically
compelled to resign because OF politi-a
cal letter which he issued recently, are
also in the race for the national nomi-
nation. The chances seem to favor Ge-
sner, who says he will run whether he.
gets the nomination from the nations.
.alists or not AS 1t takes only 250
names to be nominated by petition, it
is likely there will be more than one
candidate from the national party. The
convention Of this party will be held
this week.
The republicans have decided to run
no candidates in this city. and they
will throw their whole strength to the
national party The union democrats
are still undecided as to candidate,
but the probabilities are pointing more
and more to the nomination of Carlos
Garcia Nelez. son of the late Gen.
Calixto Garcia.
Much interest is being taken in the
election all over the island, but every
thing is quiet. In most of the munich
palities the present alcalde is a candi-
date for reelection. The interest that
the people are taking in the elections
is shown in the falling off OF the corre
spondence received AT division head
quarters, which is usually enormous,
and covers all sorts OF subjects.
