Special to The Washington Herald
Chicago. June S.-A tall, smooth-faced
young man, walking briskly through the
lobby Of the Annex this afternoon.

the attention of the throng. Republicans OF
more or less prominence in the States
they hail from watched him with re-
spect and difference that closely ap-
preached awe.

sphynx-Eke expression. 1t was obvious
Of all eyes.
A Senator bowed to him rather coldly
and received a cold bow in return.
At the desk the young man was Joined
by Harry S. New, chairman OF the Re-
publican National Committee, and they
exchanged a few words. New, who IS
anything but loQuacious. did most Of
the talking
Then Che young man, whose every
movement was eagerly. respectfully, and
awesomely watched by politician and
lobby lounger alike, strode swiftly to
an elevator and vanished therein. In
stantly the hum Of conversation was re-
sumed
The subject Of all this attentior-the
tall. smooth-faced, sphynx-nke-expres
stoned young man-was Frank H. Hitch
cock, who, few years ago. was but a
humble department clerk in Washington.
To-day he is the cock of the walk in
Chicago. Possibly when all the big men
get here he Will not occupy so conspiou-
Gus a position In the Imelight, but now
he is the whole show, and knows 1t.
The only information Hitchcock vouch-
safes in newspaper quarters is that Taft
is as good as nominated right now. and
figures are at his tongues end to prove

ticket. 1t is a fact that he does not fur

ally averse to It; but his devoted follow

sound good to all the incoming delegates
They are asking why it is proposed to
break away from tradition by ignoring
New York and the East, but they are as
sured by those favoring the combination
that Fairbanks is strong among conserva-
tives Of all sections, and that geographi-
cal considerations will not count this
year. anyway.
Nobody here believes that Taft's speech
about Grant is going to ALLEVIATE any large
number Of old soldier voters, but It is
generally regretted. To his best friends
It is inexplicable-all the more so because
ii was a set speech.
Some little distrust of the Hoosier crowd
is felt in inner Taft circles. A suspicion
has taken root that Indiana, as here rep
resented, is waiting and hoping and
quietly encouraging a Roosevelt stam-
pede. That would mean the old ticket
again-Roosevelt and Fairbanks. But If
Taft be the nominee. when it comes to
