went forth from Sycamore Hill last night
at the conclusion Of the conference be-
tween Theodore Roosevelt and Lloyd c.
Griscom. chairman Of the New York re-
publican county committee.
The county chairman is known to have
been the bearer Of a message from Presi-
dent Taft. and it was generally supposed
that the message was sent in hope Of
obtaining Col. Roosevelt's outspoken sup
port for a move to obtain harmony with
In the republican party. But when Mr..
Griscom went away. after q talk which
lasted most OF the day, the only thing he
was willing to speak about was the New

There is good ground for the belief that

IL appear that he had come to Sycamore
Hill as an emissary from the President.

"Yes. I have discussed candidates ana

Several delays have occurred in,moving

Ucker to Direct Fire-dghting.
Because Of the serious forest fire situa-
tion in the new Glacier National Park
in Montana, Acting Secretary Pierce OF
the Interior Department today requested
Chief Clark Clement s. Ucker. who now
is in the Yellowstone National Park on a
tour OF inspection, to go to the new park
to assist Supervisor Logan in handling
the situation.
Because Of the extensive acreage OF the
Glacier, il Is difficult for one man to
supervise the fighting Of the fires.
Cost is $1,000 Daily.
The cost Of fighting the fires on the ma
tional forests in the Missoula district,
comprising Montana, northern Idaho and
Wyoming. is $1,000 a day. according TO
estimates. which have been received oy
the fores service here. This will create
a deficit in the appropriation Of $l35.0U
made at the last session OF Congress for
lighting forest fires during the current
fiscal year.
II Is not believed here that the situation
will be materially relieved until the ad-
vent OF rain In the regions where the fires
are the most serious.
