DICKINSON
AND RECORD.
Great Political Opponents II
Hudson County Reports to
Have Had Conference.

JERSEY CITY, Feb. 11:--Colonel
Samuel D. Dickinson, secretary Of
state and republican boss of Hudson
county, and Corporation Counsel
George L. Record, chief adviser to
Mayor Mark M. Pagan, of Jersey
City, and one or the leaders Of the
new idea faction of the party, have
come together for the purpose Of dis
cussing plans for harmonizing the
warning factions of the party.
This is the news which came to
Jersey City yesterday by way of New
ark, but in such way as to leave
doubt as to its authenticity, and it
will be big surprise to both the fol-
lowers of Colonel Dickinson and May
or Pagan. The meeting at which ov-
ertures for peace were made took
place last Friday afternoon at the
Lawyers Club in New York city, this
place being selected in the hope that
the matter could be kept secret Tor
time at least. Mr.. Record is a mem
ber of the club and so is Colonel Dick
inson, although he is not a lawyer.
Several Newark members happened
to be in the club that evening ana
it did not take long for the news to
reach the Prudential Insurance Com
pany, which has been the dominating
force in republican politics In New
Jersey, and in due course the news
reached Jersey City.
Dickinson Made Overtur.es.
Now that the secret Is out, there Is
much speculation as to how the meet-/
ing between Colonel Dickinson and
MIR. Record was brought about and
what the next move will be. 1t iB
known that the first overtures were
made by Colonel Dickinson, either
directly or through trusted lieuten-
ant Mr.. Record was asked whether
he would agree to meet Colonel Dick
inson at "quiet little dinner over In
New York and talk over things at
fecting the republican party in New
Jersey" Mr.. Record, after consid-
ering the matter for some time, came
to the conclusion that he would not
be compromising himself by meeting
Colonel Dickinson, as suggested, and
that there would be no harm in hear
ing what Colonel Dickerson had to
say. The dinner had not been under
way long before Colonel Dickinson be-
gan to call Mr.. Record George" and
Mr.. Record, not to be outdone in the
amenities of the occasion, returned
the compliment by addressing the
secretary of state as colonel" 1t
was like old times.
Now that the ice has been broken
and these hitherto bitter political enc
mics have come together, a speedy
settlement of the trouble that has d.
vided the party in Hudson county is
looked for. The friends of Mayor Fa-
gan and Corporation Counsel Record,
both of whom have bitterly opposed
Colonel Dickinson for the last year
and half, will be inclined to look
upon the overtures made by Colonel
Dickinson to Mr.. Record as a vic
tory for their side.

CUBA IN SENATE
Members Want to Know When Our
Troops VIII BE Withdrawn.


WASHINGTON, Feb. IL. - For the
first time since the fall of the Palma
government the Cuban question was
brought up in the senate. Several
members tried to draw out some au-
thoritative statement as to when the
United States will withdraw its troops
from the island and when an election
will be held This information was
not Forthcoming
Senator Warren. chairman of the mil
itary committee, who was in charge of
the military bill under debate, and
Senator Cullom, chairman of the for
eign relations committee, admitted
they had no official information as to
the purpose of the president. Their
manner indicated their perfect willing
ness to leave the matter in the hands
of President Roosevelt.
Senator Bacon started the debate by
asking Senator Warren il he had re-
ceived any word from the war depart
ment as to increased expenses for the
army due to the Cuban crisis.
The attitude of the United States,
Mr. Bacon said, was not a matter
which rested solely with the executive,
and while he was not unmindful of the
fact that congress was not taking the
part in the affair it should 1t appeared
to him that the United States was es-
tablishing in Cuba government of
unlimited power.
A Havana dispatch says that negro
generals, representing so per cent of
the Liberal party. hotly denounce the
party leaders for the lukewarm recep-
tion of their demand for larger rep
resentation of negroes on staff and file
when the orders from Washington to
increase the rural guard are carried in
to effect.
General EstenoZ says the jobs and
claims OF the committee of the party
are as bad as was the Palma govern
ment the negroes getting nothing. He
declared they were ready to take up
arms. Is they were being driven to
fresh revolt. Their policy. he said,
needed changing by the old method

ly constituted tho Cuban people.
