WASHINGTON, Feb. Batter a quiet
morning in New York, President Taft re-
turned to Washington tonight to find that
his speech last night before the Repub-
lican club at its Lincoln day dinner had
kent national legislators busy talking the
whole day long. The President had
planned the speech week or more ago.
1t was one of the longest he ever made
and covered his attitude on practically eV-
cry issue pending in Congress or that has
come up since his administration began
Mr.. Taft felt that a statement or MS
views was wanted Now that he has had
his say, it is declared his purpose is 70
get to work on Congress IN the interest,"
OF measures he has recommended. IN
fact it is said that in connection with ms
speech and his plans for the immediate
future, the President today quoted say
ing by JeWett, head master Of Bahol at

News reaching Washington of the con-
ference Of the Republican leaders IN New
York yesterday, participated IN Dy Wy
President and by Governor Hughes, Ienus
to confirm statements of last night tldU
possible candidates for governor OF tHe
state did not enter into the discussion.
It is said the President and Governor
Hughes occupied positions that are al
most Identical, in that both are deeply IN

that neither will take an active part IN
his selection Neither Mr.. TAFT nor lh5
governor, it is positively stated mere mas
C;oTeTnor Hughes assured the President
that the outlook IN the state, as ne view
ed it, was not SO bad as had been PIC
tured. He declared that the scandal al
Albany must oe gone through wllH -, 80
that excelsior must be made of any can
cerous growth in the party. WITH this
done the governor thought the people
would rally to the party, and he so de-
clared in his speech last night
Are Waiting for Roosevelt.
Much sentiment was found in New
York that nothing should be done IN tue
way Of settling possible candidates unOI
the return OF Mr.. Roosevelt. To many,
il was said. this would mean a strong
boom" for Collector William Loep,
whose candidacy would undoubtedly CAL
Mr.. Roosevelt to the stump.
When in New York President Taft con-
suited Mr. Loeb regarding plans under
way for q homecoming reception TO MI
Roosevelt His cablegram to the Re
publican club of New York, which had
undertaken the arrangements Tor re
ceptiOn to the former President stating
that whatever was done should be done
on the day Of his arrival, concluded with
the advice: See Loeb"
Mr.. Loeb told President Taft positively
that no arrangements so far had been
made, and that none would be made until
after MI RoOsevelt's arrival in Europe,
when there viii be plenty Of opportunity
to consult his wishes President Tafts
participation in any welcome to the form
er President viii be decided upon later.
It would be a surprising thing if any
