NEW YORK, Feb 11.-That Gov. Odell
has since the November elections, if not
before, been prosecuting a systematic
campaign for denomination, is manifest,
politicians say, to everybody who has
been in close touch with him and his al
lies. Politicians further declare that he
expects a denomination with or without
the cooperation Of Senator Platt.
OdeIPs denomination
Gov. OdelI counts among his support
ers President Roosevelt, former Governor
Black, Congressman Littauer and Emer
son, Comptroller Miller, Collector of the
Port Of New York to be Stranahan, State
Committeeman William C. Warren, the
Republican leader of Western New York;
Superintendent Of Public Works Boyd,
and if the patronage of the charities de-
partment is added to that of the lunacy
and other departments before the legisla-
tive session ends he will have at his back
far more help than had Black when, with
Plat against him, in 1893, he mustered
nearly 800 delegates in the state conyen-
ton.
PrO-BOer Campaign
Within a few weeks a great impetus
has been given to the movement to bring
about action by the United States govera-
ment in the direction Of ending the war
in South Africa. Strong organizations
having this object in view have been
formed in various parts Of the country,
and preparations are under way for an
imposing demonstration in behalf of the
Beers to be made in Washington in April
or May.
The New York society is cooperating
with the American TransvaaI league Of
Chicago and various other societies and
committees. Already the work has been
started in thirty three states, and with
in a short time it Is hoped to have an
effective committee at work in every con-
gressional district in the country. Web
ster Davis, formerly assistant secretary
Of state, is taking an active part in the
work in the West.
No Cabinet Place for Taft
Gov. Taft says the suggestion Of his
name in connection with any cabinet 20
fered a place in the cabinet and does not
expect to receive such an offer He eE-
poets to resume his work in Manila by
the end of May.
Raines Law Ineffective
That less than one-third of the Raines
law hotels in Manhattan and the Bronx
conform to the requirements of the liquor
tax law is the assertion made in COM
municatdon sent to Gov. Odell by the so
ciety for the Prevention Of Crime.
Prince Henry at City Hall
Prince Henry will be received at the
city hall and presented with the free
dom Of the city on Washington's birth
day, instead Of on February Is. This
change in date came yesterday as
result Of a communication from Secre-
tary Hay to Mayor Low. Mr.. Hay
wrote the mayor that February Is, the
date originally set for the reception,
was the day the yacht was to be launch
ed, and the prince would probably be
unable to get to the city hall
Some Old Masters
Very rarely do the people OF New
York have the opportunity to see so
good a collection Of pictures as that
which Mr. E. f. Milliken has placed
on exhibition at the American Art gal
leries, to be sold at auction on Friday
evening, February IA. at Mendelssohn
hall. It contains only twenty-six works
Some OF these are of great value, and
not one Is bad. trivial or dun. The list
is as varied as it Is dignified and inter
esting; Titan and Degas, MiIlet and
William M. Chase. Psayls do ChaYannes
