PoU0uKkEPsGE. March IA dinner was
given for Gov Hughes by Francis q.
LandOn at the Nelson House tonight and
he subsequently, made a speech TO the
Dutchess County Republican Club at Column
bus Institute. The subject Of wine at the
dinner was preached by the caterer to
Mr., Landon. who held up his hands and
exclaimed:
Just plain water for us. Remember tho
fate OF Fairbanks." SO water was the only
liquid served.
At Columbus Institute no men gave the
Governor a warm greeting lie spoke
for forty minutes and at times was i'm
passionsd in his plea for a high moral re-
sponsibility on the part of the New York
Executive and the Republican party. which
latter, he declared, under the indom!table
influence Of President Roosevelt, still rep
resents the conscience Of the American
people.
This Ia no country for vagaries,' he
declared; what 10 to be done must be done
in a way that can be demonstrated az wise
to the intelligence of thinking men, This
is, no time to throw out catohwords nor TO
attempt to attract votes by measures III
devised for American enterprise" lie
continued:

their merits, according to mems convictions
ard on their oRths. even against their good
friends. don't think much OF men who talk
of their friendship and what it implies. al
though friendship Ia the best thing on earth.
II is a different matter. however. when you
sit in the Executive Chambers. Then your
friends are citizens. 10 matter who they may
be.
| don't think much OF any Republican who
comes to me and talks about any interests
OF the Republican party standing in the way
Of reforms. II We allow ell that II would only
be little while when the Republican party
would only bc q name on the ballot II we
give the people what they want the party will
be invincible in New York State.
We have now one measure that goes 10
the heart OF things nd this Is the bill to abolish
this iniqutous racetrack gambling. The
Republican party in this state cannot adord,
for the sake of gamblers. To- turn down the
Constitution of the State. Prolonged Ap-
plause.l l-hGve said that We are party Of

that II will 70 steadily into decline. We
must save the thousands Of men who are now
going TO their ruin by way Of rscetrack
gambling. The Republican party cannot
ahOrd TO dodge this issue.
The Governor then spoke Of the aw-
ful farce presented in the liquidation
of failed banks with the needless expense
accompanying il. He made a plea for bIlsi
ness like procedure which will pat stop 20
iQuidations by receivers with large legal
expenses. and he Expressed the wish that

MRS. BELL TOO I'LL TO APPEAR.
she Went out IN the Rain to Find Her
PAwned Jewelry.

Mrs. Evelyn Bell did not appear in the
Jefferson Market court yesterday to press
the case against her friend Mrs. Jeanette
Newman, OF the Hotel Stratford, whom she
accuses Of having stolen jewelry from her.
The Detectives who arrested Mrs. Newman
on Friday told Magistrate Corrigan that
Mrs Bell was i'll in her apartment at SO
Central Park West ns a result Of exposure
TO the weather on Friday while visiting
pawnshops in an effort to identify some
Of the jewelry which the tweuty-three
tickets found in Mrs. Newman's possession
called for. She spotted seven pieces,
which had been pledged for S7lI.
p. j. McManus, counsel for Mrs. New
man, said in court that the fact that his
client had kept the pawntickets showed
that she intended TO return the jewelry.
She took the property, he said. because
she was in temporary straits and needed
money to keep her ffteen-year-old son
Edgar at boarding school. Mrs. Newman
was dressed In black and heavily veiled.
Magistrate Corrigan set the hearing for
Wednesday afternoon at O'Clock. The
detectives meanwhile are looking up the rest
Of the iewely.

No UNION on HAYWOOD.
Socialist Party Rejects the OVertures Of
the Socialist LabOrites.

The proposition made by the Socialist
Labor party. the DE Leon Socialists, some
months ago 70 hold a conference with the
Socialist party to unite on one set Of candi-
dates from President down has been turned
down by the national executive committee
Of the Socialist party. The official an
nouncement Of ts decision was made yes
terday. The action Of the national COM
mittee precludes the idea Of the Socialists
uniting on Haywood as Presidential can
didate.
The De Leon Socialists were very angry
yesterday at the refusal Of tho executive
committee Of the rival faction to accept
the proposition aud denounced them un-
sparingly. They say that there is nothing
left now but TO renew the fight. A resOu-
tion carried by the executive committee
OF the Socialist party to invite the De Leon
ties to leave their party and join the rival
angered them still more.
The national convention of the Socialist
party will be held in May, and some Of the
De LeOnite leaders said yesterday that the
convention would probably set aside the
decision OF the national committee. The
leaders of the Socialist party on the other
hand declare that there is no chance that
the convention will disspprove Of their
action.

CALLED TO THE WHITE HOUSE
SENATORS WHO DON'T FAVOR
THE ALDRICH BILL.

President Takes Flight OF Them IN Hand.

how, He wants Lhe Measure Passed.
WASHINGTON. March president RoOse-
welt has taken q hand In the legislative
situation involved In the consideration
Of the Aldrich currency bill. Western
Republican Senators who have expressed
opposition to the measure or desire to
have II amended. either through addition
or elimination, and other Senators from
the West who are suspected OH looking
askance at the bill are being called to the
White House and told that the President
hopes they will not oppose the financial
legislation.
A group OF them went there to-day by
invitation and the President talked 10 them
separately. OF eight Republican Sena-
tors who were at the White House seven

Borah OF Idaho. Bourne Of Oregon, Burkstt
Of Nebraska. Dixon of Montana, Flint Of
California, Piles Of Washington and SmOot
Of Utah. Mr.. Smoot has. made a speech
In favor of the bill.
It is understood that Mr.. Roosevelt said
that in spite Of some opposition that had
developed 10 the Aldrich bill he thought
il should be passed by the Senate. Some
financial legislation was better than no
legislation at all, and in the Presidents
opinion the Aldrich bill was the only measure
thar had a chance Of enactment. The
President Ia said 10 have confessed that he
had not mastered the financial problem.
but as far as he could see the Aldrich bill
was the most acceptable Of the various
measures proposed.
While the President is credited with
having made some votes for the Aldrich
bill he heard arguments against that feat
ure Of the measure which authorizes the
acceptance Of first mortgage railway bonds
a. security for the issue Of emergency
currency notes.
IL was understood TO be the Presidents
desire that the bill be passed by the Senate
substantially in its present form. leaving to
the House the right TO make amendments.
He Indicated. IL is understood. that the
House should have an opportunity to act
upon the proposition for legali1ng clearing
houses and clearing house certificates and
90 determine whether the amount Of Circu-
increased from five hundred million to one
thousand million dollars.
The President Is represented TO have said
TO at least one Of his Senatorial visitors
that no hoped the railroad securities fea-
turs Of the Aldrich bill would be retained,
because he was anxious to rehabilitate the
railroad industry.

DALLAS. Tex. March THE anti-Bailey
faction Of the Democratic party held a
State convention OF State mass meeting
at Waco to-day. The avowed purpose o!
the meeting was to develop plans to pre-
vent il possible the sending of Senator
Bailey as o delegate at large TO the national
convention at Denver by the State conven-
ton TO be held at Fort Worth ON May 26
Il has been planned by the Leaders 10 name
Senator Culberson and Gov. Campbell as
two Of the delegates at large that they
would put on their ticket. Their plan
became public. however. about a week ago
and Culberson and Campbell made 1t known
that they would not permit the Use Of their
names in any factional connection or out
side the regular State convention OF the
party.
The mass convention to-day cannot in
candor be characterized as a success. There
were not to exceed 500 delegates from the
State at large. There were present in the
convention hall 800 or 1000 persons, but
four-fifths were spectators from the city
OF Waco and vicinity. Dallas county, the
storm centre Of the anti-Bailey movement
sent less than 100 delegates, Notwithstanding
a special train had been chartered and the
round trip fare fixed at a low rate.
Speeches by Judge q. B. Gerald and
Cullen F. Thomas Of Waco were extremely
bitter against Senator Bailey, and other
OF his old time enemies spoke in terms of
censure similar TO that INDUCED in during
the last year and a half. Resolutions OF
similar tenor were adopted by the meeting
and declarations made against sending
senator Bailey or any Of his political friends
to Denver.
An exciting incident at the Waco meet
ing to-day was q flst fight on the floor OF
the rOnVantiOn. III farnaa ~ Wano
attempted to pin an anti Bailey badge on
the coat Of A. VI. Kennedy. also Of Waco.
The fight came OF at once. Kennedy was

for Speaker Of the House OF Representatives
