BURTON MAKES DENIAL.
Taft Did Not Ask Him to Eliminate
Foraker.

CLEVELAND. Ohio, May u-Repre-
sentative Theodore e. Burton gave out the
following statement today:
IAN erroneous report has gone forth to
the effect that Secretary William H. Taft
has said to me by telephone that he desired
the elimination of Senator Joseph B. For
aker from politics.
HE has never made any such statement
He has conscientiously refused. however,
to enter Into any deal under which he
should have the support Of the republicans
for the presidency and in consideration
therefor Mr.. Foraker should be Endorsed
for the senatorship.
Such an arrangement would SAVIOR of
political bargain and would awaken criti-
cism because the two are supposed to rep
resent different ideas. especially In regard
to the policies OF the administration of
President Roosevelt.
$50 far as l know none Of the friends
Of Secretary Taft has advised or asked
him to take any part in any contest for the
senatorshlp in the state, nor has he ex-
pressed any intention to do so..,
