Mr.. CORTELYOU IN TOWN.
President Not to DO Any Cam pa'gn-
ing-Chairman's Plans.

George B. Cortelyou. chairman Of the Repuo-
Ncan National Committee, arrived in the city
Yesterday on the same train from Oyster Bay
that brought Senator Fairbanks from the home
of President Roosevelt. He is staying at the
Hotel Manhattan, and will remain in the city
for two or three days. He will then go TO Wash
ington for about the same length of time, at
the end of which he will return to New-York.
with the purpose of remaining for longer
period and consummating some Of the prelimi-
nary plans OF the campaign
THE conferences of the last few days at Oys-
ter Bay" said Mr. Cortelyou at the Manhattan
last evening, were necessary without, at the
same time. being productive of much that is of
real interest to the public.
The New-York and Chicago headquarters
will be opened simultaneously about August
1. Just what will be the location in the two
cities cannot yet be announced. The same thing
may be said concerning the personnel of the
executive and advisory committees"
Contact with Mr.. Cortelyou even thus early In
the period preliminary to the real activities of
the campaign makes it clear that he will not
forewarn the opposition by taking the public
prematurely into his confidence the plans
which the contest will be made and the battle
the committee will not be doubted by those who
are in his confidence. The President, 1t may be
asserted on excellent authority. will conf1ne his
attention to such cooperation with the COM
mittee will be in harmony with the dignity
of his office. He will not make campaigning
tour of the country, will he plan TO receive
visiting delegations either at oyster Bay or IN
Washington. Senator Fairbanks. however as
the Vice Presidential candidate, will actively
participate in the speaking programme of the
campaign. Action, rather than the indulgence IN
boastful prediction. will characterize the pro-
gramme that will have the sanction and support
of the national chairman
