MIR. HUGHES KEEPING QUIET.
Trying to Catch Up with His Correspond
enoe-Politics Barred.

Charles E. Hughes, Gove~nor-elec spent yester-
day at his home trying to catch up with huge
mass of correspondence which had accumulated
during his week of rest in the Adirondacks after
his campaign labors He spent the evening with
his family The few visitors he saw were personal
friends
Mr.. Hughes expects by next week to have fin
ished with the batch of letters on which he Is
working now. Then he will turn his attention to
closing his legal practice and arranging his pri
vate affairs so that ho may give his entire atten
ton to public from the tine he takes office
as Governor on January /.
Since his election Mr. Hughes has given much
thought TO his work at Albany, but cannot ba said
yet TO have formulated any course OF action win
regard to any specific cOnditon-in fact he has nor
yet evolved d general policy of administrator Po-
save anecdotes OF the campaign recollections Of
former campaigns which might be considered mn
morous Mr. Hughes did a few occasions talk
over IN a general way the problems likely 10 con
front him as Governor, but has not gone beyond
that stage yet in forming his policy.
senator r: G. Stevens, of Attica, called last even
Ing 10 see Mr.. Hughes. Senator Stevens failed or
denomination this year because of the reapportion
tnent. which cut UP his Senate district baAiy He
felt that this was done to favor the Wadsworths

Wadsworth, throwing his strength to Peter a
Porter, who was elected. Because OF this the re-
port went out that Senator Stevens might have

FAVORS NEGRO TROOPS.
Republican County Committee
Pleads for Dismissed Battalion.

The Republican County Committee, at its
meeting last night passed q resolution intro
dueed by Gilchrist Stewart, a Negro, Of the
18th Assembly District. calling on the President
to rescind his action in dsoharging dishonorably
three companies Of the 25th United States In
fantry. In speaking for his resolution, Mr..
Stewart declared that the Presidents action had
been denounced all over the country likely
to introduce into the American army the spirit
of prejudfce which resulted in France IN
the Dreyfus affair.
His resolution was as follows
Whereas. There has been issued by the War
Department of the United States, acting on the
Instructions Of the President as commander In
chief Of the army and navy, an order disoharg-
ing dishonorably without trial or discrimination
three companies of the 25th United States In
fentry; be IL
Resolved, By the Republican County Com
rnittee of New York County that we deplore
the sacrifice Of this battalion, and that we re-
spectfully ask the President TO rescind said
order Immediately. and that a copy OF these
resolutions be sent to the War Department ana
that we request due representation OF this 40
ton TO be made by the Republican congress
men OF this county to the War Department i'm
mediately.
In his speech Mr.. Stewart referred TO the gal
liant conduct of this Negro regiment for forty
years. He declared that 1t had won laurels IN
the Indian wars when It played a leading part
in chasing Geronimo, and had kept UP that valu-
able service down to the Spanish war when 1t
captured the stone fort at FL Caney, Cuba. He
said that the terms of the Presidents order for
bade any member Of the three companies from
holding military or civil place under the federal
government
Then Stewart read from a speech made by
President Roosevelt at mass meeting when he
was running for Governor IN which he told Of
his regiment of Rough Riders charging side by
side with company of Negroes and living in
the trenches with them for a day two. He
paid high tribute to their conduct in battle and
told of the affection which his Rough Riders
developed for them.
James Yeareance moved that the resolution
be referred TO the executive committee, but the
motion was voted down, and after few changes
had been suggested by President Parsons it was
adopted unanimously.
Congressman w. S. Bennett presented resolu-
tions providing for the appointment of a
mittee Of fifty to investigate transit conditions
in New York City and make suggestions for
their betterment which adopted. w. II.
Wadhams, chairman of the committee
tests, reported that the election had interrupted
the work of that committee but that report on
the various district contests would be presented
at the next meeting

MEYERS LIKELY TO SUCCEED GoFF.
Leader Of Republican Aldermen Strongest
Candidate for Vacant Place.

The chances for Alderman James Cowdn Meyers
to succeed Recorder Cot, who has been elected to
the Supreme Court bench, seem brighter the
time for a choice approaches. The Thaw trial is
TO come before Recorder Goff, that his presence
on the bench at the Criminal Courts Building Is
assured for the greater part OF the month Of De-
cember.
The decision of Corporation Counsel Ellison that
the Board Of Aldermen has jurisdiction in choosing
successor 10 Recorder Goff makes it certain that
the
Mr.. Meyers is the Republican leader of the board
ana MS record as an alderman has been eminently
satisfactory His fairness and ability have won him
the admiration OF many of his Democratic col
leagues, so that, while the Republicans do not
command majority vote In the board, Mr. Meyers
stands much better chance of election to the
vacancy than either the Tammany candidate or the
Hearst candidate. II is understood at the CITY
pledged and that the three additional votes neces
sary to elect are within reach when he wants
them, These three votes will be .cast either bv
Hearst men or Tammany men. The Hearst men
probably will vote for Thomas Gileran. The sew
enty nine votes In the board normally divided
as follows: Republican, 81; Democratic 81: Mu-
nicipal Ownership. II. Four of the Municipal own
ershlp men have left the Hearst ranks FOR good
and these. with TWO others pledged to MIR
get the three necessary votes when the time comes
If Mr. Meyers is chosen for the vacancy II is
good guess that he will be the Republican candidat
for Recorder next fall. The vacancy caused bv the
resignation Of Justice Morgan j. OBrien will he
filed at the time. "
