will endeavor to control the New York

this IS the fixed political policy of

firmly centered on two points:
First-That. he will not accept a

8tional convention.
In conversation yesterday the presi-
dent reiterated his unalterable deter

another public announcement to that
effect for political reasons.
IT is admitted by. politicians here
that If the president should again for
mally announce his refusal OF a nomi-
nation in such manner as to con-
vince an those who now favor him, his
strength would be gone. He could
not control states for Mr.. Taft. The
only practicable way is to secure the
