John Hays Hammond, president of
the national league of republican
clubs, joined the president here to-
day and will make the remainder of
the trip with him. The fact that Mr.
Hammond took an active part in the
last campaign has given rise to the
report that he would do some work of
political organization on the trip. Mr..
Hammond is going, however, only in
the capacity of a close personal friend
OF the president, does not intend to do
any speechmaking and will devote him
self to having a good time alone with
the president. AS material part of his
contribution to the journey Mr. Ham
mond has donated his yacht steward
and cook to the presid mt, giving as
surance that the culinary departments

thence. The original program was in
creased by two speeches and an ex-
ira supper. Taft attended all, but
when the train arrived at Anaconda he
kept the local committee waiting an
hour before taking the long tour of the
