DUBLIN. April 27-Richard Croker
talked politics. racing and prize fight
ing. ending with a thrust at Governor
Hughes anti-gambling activity in the
space of one short interview here to-
day.
What he said about Hughes COM
prised. In fact the whole of his politi-
cal comment. He prefaced it by a re-
fusal to discuss presidential possibili-
ties. then volunteered the remark that
he considered New Yorl's Hughes en-
dorsement as a mere compliment. and
added:
His action on the race matter should
iniure lis politically. Isn't Hughes
politics a gamble? Yet they accept the
pleasant part OF the gamble and pro-
pose TO penalize II. America needs a
quiet president-a long rest under
such a statesman as Mckinley"
Then the former Tammany chieftain
denied that he and Jem Roche. who
failed so dismally in the fight for
which Croker had backed him with
Burns. had had an encounter after the
mill.
"I was interested in the fight" said
Crocker. but I nsver met Roche in
my life and he never saw me unless il
was from the ring"
