STODDARD CASE AN ENIGMA
Ari1ons's Secretary Strongly Supported The
 President Is Annoyed

k WASHINGTON, October ?. Special to the Arizona Republican, The ru- nor became current today that PreSi- dent Roosevelt was ready to make q decision in the case of Secretary Stod- dard of Arizona, but an inquiry at the White House this afternoon failed to elicit any information.
 The most notable feature of the case during the past few days has been tine earnest support which Secretary S,od. dard has been receiving from the lead ing republicans of New York. Senator ThoS. c. Platt, Gov. Der jlmin B. Odell, Chairman Dunn Of the state committee, and Judge Celora Martin of the court ufappeals, Mr StOddard'S fIher-in-law, have Signified tO the
 president that they have looked into the case and understand all the m0-
 lives back of the charges against the
 secretary, that they are confident that
 he has been guilty of no wrongdOing,
 and that they wish him retained in of
 flee. It has never been doubted how
 ever, that the president would follow Governor Brode's recommendation
 aud Mr. StodGlrd virtually admit ts that the governor has recommended
 his removal Ohi3ials at the depart
 mcnt of the interior and at the White
 House have steadily declined to say
 what action the governor has taken,
 but for week the general under
 standing has been that Governor Bro
 die has dehniteiy ranged himself on
 the side against Stoddard.
 Politicians familiar with the Situ- atiOn in New York say that the case is full of embarrassment for the presi dent They do not intimate that Mir Roosevelt would dO other than the right ching as he saw ir, but where ] there is 80 much conflicting assertion l and so much conflicting influence, he | would be heartily glad to be pleasantly | free of the entire matter. There Is no | disgusting the fact that the president l has been annoyed by the presentation | of the StOddard charges at this time. | He is one of the Shrewdest politicians | in the country, and he is not losing | sight of the probability that in the . campaign of next year the state of | New York will be closely contested, | with the possibility that the demo cratS may carry the state should there | be seriuvS divisions in the republican ranks. Nobody from New York would | think of suggesting that the StOddard case could reach enough import. auce to cut any figure in the New York campaign, but it has it's importance in the possibility ot creat-
 in some degree of friction between Mr. Roosevelt and the New York leaders on whom he must rely next year for the management of his cam paign.
 A new complication lies in the Sug gestion that Judge Martin may be the republican nominee for governor. It Is pOin ed out that should this be the case it would be very T, r,grcttable were there cause for cuolueSS between the two leading candidates on the ticket.

lJ is common thing to speak of a legislature which has adjourned as "the late legislature, signilying that it is no more. As matter of fact the legislature does not become "lato'' until the next one has been elected or uatli the two years for which the mem bers are elected expire. The Twenty second legislature is therefore as much in existence as it was year ago. There iS a vacancy in it which will have to Os filled by special elscOion, for which Governor Brodie has issued a proclamation. Capt. F. s.
