Several members of the delegation de-
clared today that Col. Roosevelt would be
consulted not only In regard TO the ssleo-
ton OF a candidate for Governor but THAI
he would participate actively in the oam-
paign. probably delivering at least ons
speech.
Several members of the New York
delegation said to-day that the colonsl
had made plain % them before he Ian
the White House that he did not inksn1

in the political affairs Of his own SeAes

II in believed here that senator Root
and other members % the New York dels-
CATION were convinced they could rely
on Mr. Roosevelts efforts in New YORK
state in the fall before they urged Gov
Hughes's name upon President Taft for
the supreme Court appointment Tbs
New York Skaters here believe that the
withdrawal OF Hughes will be conducive
to party harmony in some ways. while az
the same time they look for no retrogrea-
SION from the political standards that
have been established by Gov. Hughes
Several 90 the New York Republican,
here expressed the opinion to-day that tho
elimination Of AIR. Hughes had avoided a
very real possibility Of friction bstweea
the Governor and Col. Roosevelt in regard
20 party affairs in the Empire STATE. 10
il well known that Gov. Hughes and Col
Roosevelt have never hitched very well
together. The Governor insisted On hOeing
his own row at Albany with considerable
indifference to the views OF President
Roosevelt. Mr.. Roosevelt in consequences
said some disDaraGing things about Gov
Hughes and apparently had no very great
concern about keeping his sentiments
from the Governors sars.
New York Republicans here believe
that IL Gov. Hughes had remained ae the
helm and had taken an active part In next
falls campaign there would surety have
been friction between him and the Colonel

Democrats ia Washin gton declined 20
follow the lead OF William J. Bryan In
opposing the Hughes nomination. In
private Conversation they did not hssi-
tate TO condemn Mr.. Bryan's criticisms
~ in extremely had taste. One of tho
eadink Democrats in the senate said;
What Mr. Bryan thinks about public
matters has more weight with the news-
papers than with the members Of his
