fair idea OF what shape the Aldlich

committee believe this figure not too
high for time of emergency when a

After nearly three hours debate

Frequently cheers, Kisses and cat

taken with nothing more than routine
business having been transacted.
A vote on the straight question of
endorsing Hughes or any other nresis
dental candidate was never reached
There was no doubt of the veiled is
sue, however, and the outspv<en sup.
porters Of the governor lined up
squarely against those who are either
friendly to the candidacy of Taft Or
'opposed to any endorsement by the
committee at this tiir-.
AT its meeting in December theI
committee tabled resolution endors-
ing Governor Hughes as a candidate
before the Republican convention. ItI
was then understood that while itssl
opponents believed the launching OF
the governors candidacy. il not IN
was at least premature, AMI
that definite disposal OF resolution
would be made tonight. Preceding
