personal abuse and professional criti-
cism. The dismissed or reduced hur-

As they formed considerable portion

now urging the Cortelyou boom more

favorite candidate by making common
cause for the time being under the
Hughes standard have been disconcert-
ed little by the general acclaim in re-
cent days for the Secretary of the
Treasury. His star has been rising since
he displayed such a mastery grasp Of
of the financial situation during the
panic. Bankers and business men have
encouraged his Presidential ambition by
some substantial declarations. Should
his candidacy grow much beyond the
dark-horse stage, he and those behind
him would sooner or later have TO turn
in and try to win a substantial follow
ing of delegates in his home State of
New York.
AT present the Huges and Cortelyou
workers are in close sympathy. They
want to keep the President from nomi-
mating Taft, however much or little
Hughes or Cortelyou may be interested
in that effort. The same is true of the
Cannon workers. who have been show
ing new life the past week, and now
promise to come down to Washington
early in December and "whoop it up
for the veteran Speaker.
Secretary Cortelyous friends are now
going to exploit the friendship of or
ganized labor for him. He has sided
with labor on some important issues
1t is claimed he will have the solid sup
port of the labor forces that have al
ready opened their guns upon Secretary
Taft. His record as Secretary of Com
merce and Labor, especially his insist
ence on separate labor bureau in the
Department and as Postmaster-General
is being gone over in detail and pre-
pared for political distribution. Capital
is very friendly to him; labor is friend
ly; Roosevelt enthusiasts would not op-
pose him. The Secretary's boomers ar

Winter, if President >2ooseveIt continues
the warfare that is now expected of him.
A few little things have occurred the
past week which the friends of other
candidates attribute to him, and which
indicate more than ever hot, hard
contest for delegates to the next Ma
tional Convention.
If incidents are correctly Interpreted,
the President has begun an aggressive,
determined fight against Gov. Hughes.
A few days ago it was intimateG that
Gov. Hughes should be held response
BILE for the Parsons-Hearst fusion in
New York City This intimation came
from a source that strongly suggested
the White House. and at time when
there was renewed clamor for the Pres
ident to make some declaration that he
was not responsible for that fusion.
Cannon, Knox and other Republican
candidates have men here watching
every development. They insist that the
President himself knows how that in
timation originated and also that he
knows why Senator Scott, of West Vir-
ginia emerged from the White House
offices a few days ago, suggesting that
Secretary of State Root should be nomi-
mated for the Presidency. Mr.. Scott
greatly surprised his political associates
by that declaration. He has given nu-
merous interviews, first and last, from

fidential conversation only a few days
ago he said he had been for Fairbanks
all along, but now that the Fairbanks
boom seemed to have collapsed sup
