IBy Morning journal Special Leassd Wire.
Hot Springs, Va. July 30.-Candi-

afternoon that he felt somewhat tired
from the rapid evolutions ne mas been
going through the past eight days.
He reached the Homestead here
shortly before II o'clock today from
Cincinnati. accompanied by Mrs Taft
and General and Mrs. Corbin.
After passing on an accumulation
of correspondence, he went over The
four mile golf course with Senator
Bourne, of Oregon, as an opponent.
Upon returning to the hotel he casua =
ly remarked that he believed the
change from the heat of Cincinnati 10
the comparatively cool air of the
mountains produced feeling of ia
tigue.
Al Covington, Va, the ear which
the candidate party occupied was
switched to the branch line. Mr.. Taft
was greet by quite a crowd and shook
hands and chatted for some minutes
through the car window.
The engagements during August are
to be very limited if the wishes of
the candidate can be realized For
next Wednesday he has accepted an
invitation to address the annual meet
ig of the Virginia Bar association to
be held here His speech will be non
political A horse show to be held
at White sulphur Springs, Friday and
Saturday next week to which Repres-
entatiye Gaines, of West Virginia, has
extended an urgent inyit9 lion to the

tempting to Mr. Taft. He says he
would like to go. especially as the trip
would be made over mountain roads
in coach The proposed rally Of
VI. ginja republicans which Is being
arranged 10 take place here at date
in August yet to be fixed, will afford
an opportunity for what Mr.. Taft eX-
poets la be his only political speech
that month
Frank II. Hitchcock. chairman of
the republican national committee, is
expected to have a conference with
Mr.. Taft here, probably shortly after
the New York headquarters have been
opened on August 1 and Arthur l.

is expected to be a frequent visitor
here during August
Aside from somewhat extended
talk with United States Senator Scott,
of West Virginia. on the train this
