Loeb Taft's New Manngers
Rumor had II yesterday that William
Loeb. jr., the Secretary 10 the President.
might succeed Mr. Vorys, but nothing
that could be regarded even remotely as
confirmation of the rumor WIS obtain
able in the proper quarters.
1t Is declared by some well-lnformed
people that in determining 20 end all
uncertainty as to his attitude President
Roosevelt was actuated largely by knOwl-
edge that the Roosevelt supporters in
several States. while honestly anxious 70
have him renOmuAted, would break to
Hughes. Knox. or Cortelyou if the Presi-
dent withdrew from the contest
The President, il is declared, has come
20 the conclusion that he could best Offset
this tendency by retiring now from the
race and devote his energies to lining up
his forces for Taft. Anything to beat
Hughes" seems to be the wGtchword OF
the Roosevelt forces.
All these various circumstances con
tributed TO the Presidents determination
10 speak now on the subject Of a third
term. instead of waiting until Secretary
Tafts return or until some State con-
vention forced him 10 declare himself by
electing third-term delegates 20 the ma
tional convention.

Therefore the mere taking Of a little
jaunt to the other side or the world
doesn't bother them. They don't let
down their hair a little bit
Not that these naval wives propose TO
stay on the Atlantic coast while hubby
bouts ship at San Francisco. Half
dozen clubs are already IN process Of
formation. composed OF officers wives
only. They plan 10 obtain reduced rates
10 the Pacific Coast. and go in body 20
Frisco to meet their husbands Some OF
the more enthusiastic are even talking
OF chartering a special train all the way
through TO the coast. Others. who are
particularly congenial, are planning 10
live together during the winter until the
time comes 10 start for the other side.
Mascots Are Popular.
One would think that mascOts would be
frowned on by the officers. Necessarily
they are mussy, and a domesticated pig
is far from the ideal pet But it appears
that mascots add immensely TO the happi-
ness OF the men.
THE very best sailors we get" said
one officer, come from the farming
States Of the Middle West In fact. most
of our men are inlanders, and few are
enlisted on the coast.
Now. these men take to animals nat
urally. Maybe il recalls to them the
happy days down on the farm. Maybe il
is simply that every one must have some
fad.
"At all events. experience has proved
that the more mascots q ships crew has,
within limits the better behaved and
more cOntented are the members 90 that
crew. The one thing we bar is drunken
mascot.
Some time ago we had bear on one
Of the ships OF the fleet. As a cub. his
antics were ludicroas. and doubly so
when he had been given lot Of grog.
The men enjoyed him so that they took
every risk To smuggle liquor on board
not for themselves, but for the bear.
by and by. the bear become a con-
frmed topper. lie ceased 20 be funny when
he was drunk for then he was merely
in his normal state. But when he was
sober and remorseful he was a terror.
The end came when he laid for the
officer Of the deck. who had taken bot
tie away from him. and tried 20 knock
his head of We got rid Of that mascot,
and only sober ones need apply now"

first. he said. and handed a letter of
resignation 10 the President Whereupon
the President il is related, told Mr. Ca
pers that he did not know whether the
letter a. resignation was a bluff or not,
but If il was blum and Mr. Capers
persisted in advocating Mr. Roosevelts
denomination, he (Air. Roosevelt would
cali the blun by accepting the resignation.
The curious thing about the Presidents
attitude in this connection is that Mr.
Roosevelt must have been aware for a
long time that the third-term movement
was very strong among Federal office
holders In the South These Southern
Federal Office holders are powerful factors
IN politics in their States and many OF
them win be delegates to the national
convention. 1t was understood among
the Presidents friends that he did not
stop the activity in his behalf among the
Federal Office holders, because so long as
there was uncertainty as 10 whether he
would be a candidate, Just that long
would those within the party who are 0p-
posed 20 his policies be kept from con-
centrating on any candidate who has no
sympathy with the things which ne advo-
Gated.

The understanding now is that his sud

as to his attitude was due in large part

was being injured through the creation of
a belief that the President wanted the
nomination himself. This he regards as

he was Withholding 10 throw confusion

Republican party.
TIE Taft supporters claim TO be jubilant
over the Presidents announcement but
their JOY is not wholly wclouded The
Presidents unwillingness 70 come out

political activity in behalf Of Secretary
Cortelyou worries them. Mr.. Cortelyou il
