STILL MUCH JEROME TALK.
"Cits" Nay Force Him to Make a
Definite Statement.

Following up the statement made on Monday
night TO Tribune reporter that the Republican
county organization would have TO run its cam
patgn without interference from the State or
ganzation, State Chairman Oden yesterday said
that he would not stand in the way of the in
dorsement of District Attorney Jerome for re-
nomination II the Republicans think it desirable
to indorse him
His statement interpreted in Citizens
Union circles as commttal TO Jerome for the
Mayoralty nomination. It had reference 10 the
possible denomination OF Jerome as District At
torney The Republicans fully expect that the
Cluzens' Union organization, in view OF the prob
aOie denomination OF Jerome and the indorse-
ment Of him by the Republicans will cheerfuIly
support and cooperate in bringing about the
nomination Of Republican for Mayor
The Republican leaders assume that Mr.. Jerome
is sincere in his repeated declarations that he is
candidate only for the District Attorneyship.
Mr.. Jerome is reported TO have said TO a friend
this week:
The only people who want me to run for
Mayor are my fool friends who don't believe
what 1 say about wishing to be reelected Dis
trict Attorney and those who want to get rid of
me- The only Job I after and the only one
shall seek this fall is the one I am holding
now"
State Chairman Oden continued his talks with
loCaI olstrict leaders yesterday. When asked
ABOUT his alleged hostility TO Jerome as a candi-
cate to be indorSed by the Republicans, Mr..
Odell said:
II Jerome seems TO be necessary to the sue
cess or the ticket supported by the Republicans
l, as loyal Republican, would be willing do
anything for the success OF my party"
The nominating committee of the Citizens
Union will meet on Thursday afternoon at the
oftice Of R. Fulton Cutting. in the Mutual Life
Building. Probably what the committee recon-
mends will be accepted by the union a whole.
Mr.. Cutting last week said that the Mayoralty
nomination probably would be offered to Jerome.
Mr.. Cutting has had no assurance from the Dis
tr1ct Attorney that he would accept such nom
ination. The action OF the committee is likely
TO smoke out" Of the District Attorney an ex-
plcit declaration that he will not in any crcum-
stances accept a nomination for Mayor. He has
said about the same as that already, but until
he explicitly declines TO be considered a candi-
date the Jerome enthusiasts In the Citizens
Union will keep up their propaganda in his be-
half.
State Chairman Oden attended the annual out
Ing OF the Republican organization Of the 9th
Assembly District. President Halpin of the
county committee is leader of the district. About
seven hundred and fifty went on the excursion
on the Valley Stream, and the State chairman
distributed the prizes in the athletic games.
He returned to town about > O'Clock.

Mr.. CONGER RESIGNS.
He LeaUes Diplomatic SerOice-
Not Going to China.

oyster Bay, Aug 22-Edwin H. Conger. OF
Iowa. has resigned his post as American Am
bassador to Mexico to take effect october Is
next and President Roosevelt has accepted the
resignation.
Mr.. Conger's retirement from the diplomatic
service has been expected for some time. When
he visited Oyster Bay last week 1t was sug-
gested that he might be sent TO Peking as a
special commissioner to adjust the differences
which have arisen between this country and
China over the boycott Of American goods by
some of the Chinese commercial guilds. While
official statement is obtainable here regard
ing that mission. there are reasons for the be-
lief that IT either has been abandoned by the
President or that it has been declined by Mr.
Conger At any rate 1t is believed that Mr..
Conger will not go TO China
1t has not been determined definitely yet who
will succeed Mr.. Conger as Ambassador 20
Mexico. but, as heretofore stated, il probably
will be David z. Thompson, OF Nebraska, now
American Ambassador 10 Brazil. 1t is known
that Ambassador Thompson desires the Mexican
post. In connection with the appointment
Francis B. Loomis. Assistant Secretary OF State.
has been mentioned. but il can be said pretty
definitely that Mr.. Loonis will not be appointed.
His resignation Assistant Secretary OF State
may be expected at any time. II is certain that
he is to retire from the State Department. but
that he will receive appointment in the
diplomatic service has been suggested. is
thought to be somewhat problematical.
The President tonight authorized the publ
cation of the correspondence which passed be-
tween him and Ambassador Conger with regard
to the latter's resignation. The letters follow:
Washington. August 16 1905.
The President
For reasons pertaining to my private business
and personal affairs. I have the honor TO tender.

traordtnary and PlenipOtentiary TO Mexico. TO

or at such other date as will suit your cOnven-
fence.

esttng and IN which / have received so many evil
dences of your confidence. and such invariable
courtesy and kindness at your hands. of which
I shall always cherish most valuable and pleas
ant recollectiOns, for all of which l thank you.
Mr.. President, with all my heart, and have the
honor to remain, Your obedient servant,
Z. H. CONGER.
Oyster Bay, August 10 1905.
My Dear Mr.. Conger
! have received your resignation, to take effect
on October IS 1905 and accept it for that date.
In thus accepting il I desire to express 10 you
have performed in China, as previously in Brazil.
In zeal, efficiency and single minded devotion TO
public duty. you have been the kind Of official
of whom Americans have right TO feel proud
and congratulate the country upon having had
your services. With all good wishes for your
future believe me- Sincerely yours

cans who were yachting Kiel that he would some
time see the United States again.
