LA TOILETTE DEFEAT
SURPRISES NEW YORK
Indicates to GothamiteS That the
Conservative Element Is
Gaining in Wisconsin.

NEW YORK. Sept 2f.-The news tom
Wisconsin. that in the State convention
of candidates 10 draw up a platform
for the Republicans. the La Toilette
planks were rejected, and that Senator
Stephenson controlled and made a con-
servative instead Of La Toilette plat
form, caused much comment
1t was entirely unexpected. for La
Toilette was supposed TO be strong
enough IN the state to dominate the
platform. The defeat OF the fighting
Senator on the platform issue. following
the complete rout Of his faction IN the
primary fight over the Senatorial nomi-
nation, means that the Stephenson or
conservative element is firmly in the
ascendant
The fear is that the La Toilette fol-
lowing will bolt the legislative and
State tickets. and that the national tick
ct also will suffer severely by their
course. The STATE was regarded In
pretty good shape for the Republicans
until this latest development. Now IT
is recognized that unless La Toilette
makes a sincere and determined fight
to save the situation. the Democrats
will profit heavily by IL. The State is
getting careful attention at the hands
of both national committees

No AnSWer to Be Made
To the Haskell Attack

With his scathing arraignment Of
Governor Haskell and Bryan. the Pres
ident will decline, for the present, at
least, to be drawn into making replies
to other challenges. and probably will
ignore entirely the reply of Governor
Haskell. issued TO the press today.
Secretary Loeb said that Governor
Haskells open reply had not been Of
fcially received by the President, but
that no Executive answer would be
forthcoming Nj Loeb designated
Governor HaskelIs attack as "ram-
bling" saying that it's contents had
been brought to his attention through
the press. He made II plain trat be-
yond reading the message. Mr.. Roose-
welt would pay no attention TO Il.
Secretary Loeb said that the Presi-
dent had received no telegram from
Judge Taft anent the Bryan Haskell
reply. II has been expected in some
quarters th8 Mr.. Taft might express
his satisfaction over the turn affairs
have taken.

issues from some of the men who are
continuing the campaign.

all parties and always will be. and IL it
IS found that Governor Haskell Is IN
worthy. he Will have to 90. 1 see that
the President has rather evaded the

devotes himself TO the Oklahoma end.
That is the first thing which I noticed
about the reply which 1 see in the

much TO add to what 1 said then. In

the affair I soid then that the Presi-
dent had concluded upon the unsup-
ported testimony of Hearst, whom lie
holds partially responsible for President
McEinley's assassination. that Haskell
was guilty OF dealing with the Standard
Oil Company. and II these things were
proven. then Haskell's connection with
the Democratic campaign COMMITTEES
