to be deplorable in respect to sanitary

of that institution. He says:

WANT SWANSTROM AGAIN.
His Secretary Visits President
Roosevelt at Oyster Bay.
LOWS RENOMINATIoN PROBABLE

LOW hENOMINAI1ON PROBABLE.
Close friends Of Mayor Low say that President
Roosevelt wants the Mayor to accept a renoni-
nation the fusion standard bearer next fall
Mr.. and Mrs. Low were guests of the President
and Mrs. Roosevelt at Oyster Bay last Satur-
day 1t was learned yesterday that the Presi-
dent and the Mayor talked over the local polit-
ical situation In all its important aspects Last
night the interesting fact became known that
Justin Mccarthy. secretary to Borough Presi-
dent Swanstrom. went to Oyster Bay yesterday
to see the President. It is said that the Presi-
dent and the Mayor regard Brooklyn as the
pivotal factor in the mayoralty situation and
that strenuous efforts will be made to get Bor-
ough President Swanstrom to reconsider his de-
clsion as announced recently in The Tribune,
to decline denomination. II is understood that
Mayor Low has urged Mr.. Swanstrom to re-
consider Mr.. Mccarthy, who was an Albany
correspondent when the President was Governor
was called to Oyster Bay, IT is assumed to
tell the President about the situation in Brook
lyn- 1t is thought that the President wants to
know more about Mr. Swanstrom's attitude
Mr.. Swanstrom. when seen last night by
Tribune reporter, declined TO discuss the visit
OF his secretary to Oyster Bay. In his Tribune
statement six weeks ago he said that he would
not accept denomination as he could not af-
ford to neglect his law practice another two
years. Mr.. Swanstrom's friends say he would
like to be nominated for Justice of the Supreme
Court, to succeed Justice Goodrich. who retIres
from the bench this year on account of the age
limit
If the Mayor. as alleged, has tried to persuade
Mr.. Swanstrom to reconsider his decision not
TO run again, It will be regarded as strong evi-
dence that the Mayor viii accept a renomina-
tion, provided the fusion forces are formed and
supported as they were in 1901
Mr.. Lows denomination is at this time re-
garded as practically certain. In the opinion of
the fusion leaders can run on the record
of the Low administration well as Mr. Low
himself.
President Fornes Of the Board Of Aldermen is
likely to accept a denomination if it is proffered
Borough President Cantor his friends say Will
decline denomination. Controller Grout is
going to Europe next week, to be gone till Sep
tember 10. Not until he has consulted mem
bers Of his family, the other side will
he decide on his political course in the next
mayoralty campaign.
City Chamberlain z. R. L. Gould. one Of
Mayor Lows closest political friends, when
asked yesterday about the Mayors intentions
said:
Mr.. Low has not conaded in me- Generally
speaking, think that the situation is substan-
TALLY as il was two years ago at this time"
