Int rested observers In Washington are

nent Republican whose position Ia such
that he would probably hear at frat hand
Of any attempt to bring the President
INTO the municipal campaign admitted
hi. evening that he had heard that Re-
publicans in Washington had been APP
preached by Republicans In New York with
a view 10 having them seek Mr.. Roose-
vet- assistance In the pressure that Il
beng brought to bear on MIR, Hughes, and
the President had actually been approached
or the men asked to see him had agreed to
do so. His opinion was that the President
had not seen anybody who came as an
emissary of those who want Mr.. Hughes
to accept the Republican nomlna ton. Two
other prominent Republicans, one Of whom
Is exceedingly close to the President, ex-
pressed the belief that tho effort would be
made simply because 1t had become
habit OF New York Republicans since Mr..
Roosevelt entered the White House to try
to bring him into party contests preceding
State and municipal campaigns in his own
Common wealth. But apparently the ap-
pelauts may spare themselves their pains.
oDELL FORCE PUMP AT WORK.
NEwBuRGH, Oct. S.-Chairman Odell Of
the Republican State committee is anxious
for personal reasons that Charles Z. Hughes
shall accept the nomination for Mayor Of
New York city. Since Mr.. Odell returned
here Friday evening he has sent many
messages to his friends In the State urging
them to communicate with Mr.. Hughes by
telegraph and assure him that it is his duty
to accept the nomination. Mr.. Odell is
gratifed tonight to learn that in many in
stances his wishes have been complied with,
and Mr.. Odell is now almost convinced that
Mr.. Hughes will give these communications
such grave consideration as shall lead him
to say yes to the notification committee
tomorrow.
Mr.. HUGHES KEEPS HIS RoMIsE OF SILENCE.
At noon to-day at his home in West End
avenue Mr.. Hughes Is to tell the notification
committee appointed by the Republican
city convention what his decision is in re-
gard to the nomination offered him. He
refused Yesterday to give any indication
Of what II was. He spent the day with his
family in town. The politicians did not in
trude upon his Sunday. but some friends
and neighhors called in the afternoon.
When Mr.. Hughes was asked by reporters
Yesterday if he was going to accept or
decline the no minaion, he gave out this as |
su he had to say:
In accordance with my agreement with |
The notification committee, shall not make
known my decision until I meet that COM
mee tomorrow. The committee has
RETAINED from calling on me, and 1t Is only
'ai to them that wait until our arranged
NEE ting before saying a single word on the
subject. During the last two days have
received very large number Of kilograms
and letters from friends and from men OF
Prominence. Some Of them have urged me
to accept and others have advised me to
Decline"
In Mr. Hughes's parlor there was huge
stack Of the kilograms and letters to which
ne n'erIcL. The kilograms had been COM
ns in all day.
WHY opRLL IS 80 EAGER.
The Efforts to induce Mr.. Hughes to
accept Chairman Odell's SNAP" nom
nation were universally accepted yes
efaay by Republicans not of the Odell
afpe to mean that Mr.. Odell Is fear
iul OF important disclosures concern
@s himself and Edward H. Hartman
saould MIR. Hughes stick to his work as
e'and lnquisitor for the Insurance In
'e'ugating Committee. Mr.. Hartman de-
eafed over and over again early last sum-
nef that the Legislature would not be per-
ln1ted TO investigate the insurance COM
panies' and as to the Equitable, why, he
you'd spend half his fortune to prevent
sHe legislature from amending It's charter
n n order to mutualize the company. Ex-
.ts'dent James W. Alexander Of the Equi-
" soe according to his friends, has insisted
