the train increased. assisted by the Pull

him. Finally the helpless man released
his hold but the conductor held 10 him.

President Roosevelt yesterday CONSOLE
dated the two internal revenue districts
Of Tennessee. and appointed Robert S
Sharp. Of Chattanooga, the new col
lector, with headquarters at Nashville
In the Judgment Of Tennessee politicians.
the appointment will have but one ef-
feet other than the incidental saving Of
$4,000 or $4,000 annually to the govern
ment, viz; The strengthening of the
third term movement and the recognition
Of a faction outspoken for the selection
OF a delegation to the next National Re
publican Convention. which viii be In
structed for the denomination Of the
President.
The appointment OF Mr.. Sharp is made
upon the recommendation OF II. Clay
Evans. Newell Sanders, chairman Of the
Tennessee Republican committee. and
Representative Hale. Of the Second Ten
nessee district. All three are the most
persistent thlrd-termers 10 be found in
the Volunteer state. and are frequent
subjects OF interviews bearing upon the
availability Of the President to again
serve his country.
Representative Brownlow, OF the First
district the absolute boss of Tennessee
patronage until about a year ago, could
not save the two districts presided over
by collectors named by him. Messrs.
Coldwell and Butler, the Browulow

as Tennessee politicians declare II is use
less to start an organization which is
even suspicioned of being against the
third term.
The most ludicrOus feature Of the

claims that Brownlow is not sincere IN
his professions Of fealty to Roosevelt
and Taft, so there are a few who believe
that such stories have reached the ears
of the President and persuaded him that
Mr.. Brownlow is possibly allied with the
conspiracy.
Mr.. BrowniOw, who. until a few min
utes before the Presidents appointment
OF Sharp, thought he had succeeded in
preventing the consolidation Of the two
districts. left Washington for his home
last night He has thought of making
an affidavit to the effect that he is in
favor of the third term. but is said to
fear that even this would not be suf-
fciently convincing TO the Presidents
referees in Tennessee
In announcing the appointment Of Mr..
Sharp, the Commissioner Of Internal
Revenue gave out statement. basing
the consolidation of the districts upon the
fact that ninety-two Of the ninety-six
counties in Tennessee having gone dry.
there is room for but one district.

CONFERENCE CALLED OFF.
Wise Ones Say Woodruff Was Not
Invited to white House.

While there is no official announcement
on the subject. there IS reason 10 believe
that no political conference will take
place next week in Washington between
President Roosevelt. Timothy L. Wood
ruff. and James J. Wadsworth, jr.
The names OF Mr.. Woodruff and Mr..
Wadsworth are not on the Presidents
engagement fist for any day next week
or any other time. Furthermore. the ex-
PLANTATION is made in politely guarded
terms that conferences Of the character
which Mr.. Woodruff has in mind are
never held except at the Presidents sug-
gestion. or with his acquiescence.
Republicans here contend that he will
maintain his present attitude OF reticence
until Secretary Taft gets back to Wash
ington.
