ROOSEVELT IN
FULL ACCORD
WITH TAFT
STATEMENT OF GRlSCOM
AFTER TALK WITH BOTH
Former President Declines to
Be Interviewed After Con-
ference With Chairman Of
New York Republicans.

oyster Bay. n, y. Aug. 15.--No
tidings went forth from Sycamore
Hill today at the conclusion of the
conference between Theodore Roose-
welt and Lloyd c. Griscom, chairman
of the New York republican county
committee.
The county chairman Is known to
have been the bearer of a message
from President Taft and It was gem
orally supposed that the message was
sent in the hope of obtaining Colonel
Roosevelt's outspoken support in a
move to obtain harmony within the
republican party.
But when Mr. Griscom went away
after talk which lasted most of the
day, the only thing he was willing to
speak about was the New York state
situation. He said Taft and Roosevelt
were in full accord in that regard.
In spite of Colonel Roosevelt's re-
ticence, il is believed here that he has
out program which does not
include, for the present at least,
definite endorsement of the Taft ad-
There Is good ground
for the belief that the visit of Mr..
today on his return from
Beverly. has not caused him to alter
his opinion
Mr.. Gr1Scom was not anxious 70
make it appear that he had come 10
Sycamore Hill as an emissary of the
president He not only said that the
president had not sent him but, added
that Mr.. Taft did not know today's
was to be held.
How do the views of President
Taft and ex-President Roosevelt coin
,ide in reference to national politics z?
Mr.. Griscom was asked.
The county chairman replied.
Il did not not discuss national poll
-ics to any great extent with Presi.
lent Taft.
Are they agreed as to the New
York situation p
Yes. | have discussed candidates ana
and the whole New forh
tate situation with both Of them and
heir views coincide"
MIR. Griscom said that no names
lad been mentioned prominently for
he gubernatorial nomination, al
hough good many have been con-
idered. f4 ersr,
