ROOSEVELT STARTS
ON HIS TRIP
Leaves New York City After Hur.
ried Conference With
Friends.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-When Col.
Roosevelt departed from the Grand
Central station at 1890 this morning
on his western tour, he left behind
him the most muddled political situa-
tion that has prevailed in the repub-
lican party in New York state since
the commencement of the stalwart-
half breed fight years ago.
The letter of President Taft to
Lloyd Griscom, repudiating any in
tention of the president to fight Roose-
velt, and his statement that the old
guard forced the selection of Sherman
over Roosevelt admittedly changes
the entire complexion of conditions
confronting the party
Just before his special car pulled out
for the west today Col Roosevelt
called a hasty conference with Girls
come, Collector VIM. Loeb and his
son-in-law, Nicholas Longworth. and
for the first time publicly announced
his purpose of going to the republican
state convention to fight.

Twenty-Five Thousand Visitors in st.

vcntion.
THE POLITICAL BATTLE
Nearly Every Large City in the coun-
try Wants to Entertain

Year.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 23-With the ar
rival OF majority of the delegates
to the Grand Aerie of the Fraternal
Order of Eagles, which is now in ses-
sion in st. Louis. the political battle
became strenuous The Bell-Hering
and the Grady factions drew lines
and entered the contest with a vim.
Vice President Thomas F. Grady's
personal popularity, according to gos-
sip around the Planters Hotel head
quarters, is so strong that an attempt
to prevent his succession as grand
worthy president will result in defeat,
and the Bell-Hering forces are be
Heyed to be planning to make the
fight for the vice presidency should
the attempt to change the clause Of
the constitution making the automatic
succession to the presidency of the
vice president prove abortive The
test of strength will come this morn
ing, when the graft charges are
brought up by the report of the
grievance and appeals committee
and the supplementary report OF
PRESIDENT Frank E. Herring.
Fully 25,00o visitors are said to be
/ in st. Louis already, and the regis
tration at the hotels would seem to
bear out these figures. Throughout
the day delegation after delegation

Taft and former President Roosevelt
are again fellow-workers in the same
political field. The threat that they
might pull apart has been forfended
by full explanation on one side and
an unreserved acceptance on the
other.
The president made it plain in let

republican committee, how the mis-
understanding arose. He explained
that he never took any part IN com
mittee cabal to defeat Col. Roosevelt
for temporary chairman of the coming
republican state convention. On the
contrary he explicitly deplores the
result of the committee meeting which
chose Vice President Sherman; he re-
Dukes the party leaders who have per-
mitted it to go abroad uncontradicted

States was behind their factional pre-
