PLATT WILL RETIRE.
Announces Winding Up of, His
 Public Career.
DECLARES TAFT WILL WIN.

Regrets End of Connection With Poli- tics That Began With Birth of Re- publican Party-Wsrns Writers of Autographs.
 New York, May 23.-Basking in the warm glow of his vindication in court, United States Senator Thomas c. Platt paid his compliments to Mae c. Wood and incidentally made the positive an- nouncement that he will not be can- didate to succeed himself at the ex- piration of his term year from next March.
 T am winding up my public career" said the senator, with deep note of sadness, "and cannot tell you with what regret I shall retire to private life. But 1t is decreed." The senator made interesting cem- ment, too, on various other matters of Import in which women and politics were curiously intermingled. About Taft, for instance, whom he believes will be nominated and elected without difficulty; about Bryan, ''who will run ls well as usual;;" Roosevelt, who twill probably be a candidate to suc- ceed Depew in the senate;;' Hughes, "who is out of touch with the Repub-- licans of New York;" and Cortelyou, than whom there is no better man in the Republican party for governor of this state"
 Warning For Autograph Writers.
 Of particular semipolitical interest is the reflection of Senator Platt on the habit of statesmen in scrbbling their autographs on blank sheets of paper for all corners. A sheet of paper which the senator declared he signed in blank, but which turned up at the Mae Wood trial at the bottom of an &C., knowledgment of his alleged marriage to the lady, furnished the text for his sermon.
 ''I'll never do 1t again as long as I live" declared MT. Platt. Tt is bad business, and any public man who thoughtlessly obliges an autograph seeker by putting his name on sheet of paper in that fashion runs the risk of being trapped, just as she attempted to trap me-"
 The talk shifted to politics. A hint of the old Platt instantly crept to the surface.
 'I haven't had much time to think about politics."
 But you have some views on the presidential canvassT
 "Oh, yes! I can't see that anybody has a chance but Taft He will un- doubtedly be nominated and elected"
 That eliminates Hughes?"
 "Yes," was the brief reply.
 Speaks of Bryan's Chances.
 "And about the Democrats. What of Bryan's chances?"
 Hell probably run as well as usual" said the senator, hls eyes twinkling.
 And yourself, senatorY'
 "Oh, I'm out of it all" was the re- ply. Clasping his hands over his knees, he seemed to turn his eyes back into the past. "I'll not be candidate for reelection" he said, 'and I can't tell you with what regret shall retire to private life"
 'You have been in public life long while," was suggested.
 Since the birth of the Republican party" he responded. 'I have known every president personally from Lin coin to Roosevelt, I have associated in- timately with every public man in the intervening period, and I have partici- pated in every history making event since the days of John O. Fremont"
