PRESIDENT TAFT MUCH ELATED
REPUBLICANS NEED HIM IN
NEW YORK CAMPAIGN.

Washington. - President Taft late
Monday received from Gov. Charles E.
Hughes of New York letter accept
ing a rendered appointment as an as
sociate justice of the Supreme Court
OF the United States.
Five minutes after the letter was
handed to the President the nomina-
ton of Gov. Hughes was on its way to
the Senate. That body had adjourned
Tor the day when the papers reached
the Capitol, and so the Senate will not
hear officially of the designation of
Gov. Hughes to succeed the late David
]. Brewer until Tuesday.
While it is expected Gov. Hughes
will be confirmed with little or no de-
lay, it is understood here he will re-
main as the chief executive Of New
York until next October and will not
Gilpin observer., 1910-04-28

take the oath of his new office until
the fall term Of the Supreme Court
opens, the second Monday in that
month.
There has been much speculation
ever since it was first intimated that
Governor Hughes would be rendered
place on the Supreme Court bench as
to whether his appointment would
take him out Of the fall campaign in
the state Of New York, where. the
Republican leaders say, he is sorely
needed.
President Taft would not discuss
this phase Of the case in any way to-
day. He has been anxious to secure
the best man he could for the SUI
preme Court vacancy and he feels that
he has done SO. He was much elated
over the success Of his tender to
Governor Hughes.
