Taft's Political Game Is
To Be Played In West
While the President Will Not Talk Politics He Will Send
Murray Crane Through the West to Find Out
How Strong the Party Is For Com
ing Elections

Washington, July 31.-(Special.)-Co
significance is attached in Wash
ington to the decision of President Taft
to send Senator Murray Crane out
through the west to. feel the political
pulse of the country. Tt is regarded as
showing that no matter how improper
the President may deem 1t for the Pres
ident to talk" politics, he by no means
considers 1t wrong to play politics, and
the utilization of Senator Crane as a
presidential political emissary is looked
upon as an unmistakable indication that
he is concerned over the political situa-
ton.
The friends Of Mr., Taft realize that if
the next House Of Representatives should
last chance to make good" He Is ex-
ceedlnsly anxious to avoid any such con.
tingency as that which would send his
name down In history as "one-term''
President who closed HIS administration
with neither his party nor his country
behind him.
IT Is supposed that Senator Crane, one
of the men who, some time ago, urged
Mr., Taft to assert hinpself politically
and check the tendency to regard Colonel
Roosevelt as the real leader Of the party,
will visit the big pivotal states In the
middle and far west to ascertain Just how
the Taft administration Is regarded there
and what are the chances for n,alntafn-
ing the present republican representation
in Congress from these states, IT Is
also limited by sonae of the politicians that
Senator Cranos tour WIN be IN reality

FIGHT TO BE MADE
AGAINST HORNET

New Orleans, July sl.-The converted
yacht Hornet arrived at New Orleans late
today from Norfolk, Va, and fight al
ready precipitated to prevent its depart
ture from here for Bluefeds Nicaragua,
is expected to reach climax tomorrow
when the owners propose to clear the
Yacht. Representatives of Madriz allege
that the Estrada government proposes to
purchase the Hornet for use as war
vessel. 1t is stated that the Hornet
will take IN a cargo here, Including a
ouantity OF arms, ammunition and sup
plies for the insurgent forces.
Formal protest against the sailing OF
the Hornet for Bluefelds was presented
to the departments of state, justice and
commerce and labor at Washington yes
teroay by Madriz adherents. Previously
the collector of customs at New orleans
had been officially advised that the carr
rvinr of arms and ammunition by the
vessel would not furnish suHlcieht
grounds for refusing clearance papers to
the Hornet. The United States district
attorney here, who it was reported, was
advised by the department of justice 70

demand said tonight that he mad no
statement to make in the matter 1t Is
reported that legal proceedings Will be
filed in the federal courts tomorrow III
an effort to restrain the departure of the
Hornet
While no official statement was given
out by the customs department 1t was
learned tonight that representatives OF
this department had made a thorough IN
spection of the proposed cargo of the
vessel and the result of this inspection,
IL is said, was report that the cargo
is subject 20 clearance. Customs en-
ployes will personally inspect the ioaa-
ing of the Hornet tomorrow. Nathan ..

states that there has been no transfer Oh
the ownership.
More than half of the men who manned
the Hornet during its trip from norfolk
tonight signifed their intention OF re-
turning to the port of clearance Ihey
will be substituted by other men mere
tomorrow. The Hornet is in command OF
Captain Moon, who was in charge or one
of the press boats during the spanish

confer In each state with the big party
leaders whose influence must be Sc
cured.
Coming on the top of the Ohio indorse-
ment of Taft for 1912, the announcement
as to Senator Cranes visit lends con-
siderable color t. this suggestion. The
President has felt keenly the criticism
of himself and his administration: but I
Is said he thinks that the people will
back up his course, notwithstanding the
intense feeling aroused by reason of his
bargain with Aldrich and Cannon on
the tariff law and because of his per-
sistent defense and whitewashing of Bal
linger, The selection of Senator Crane
as his representative indicates clearly
that the President proposes to maintain
his alliance with the standpatters and
that the insurgent leaders are not to
be considered.
Senator Crane is Senator Aldrich's right
bower In the Senate. He Is close to the
big interests of the country and one of
the leaders of the Aldrich organization.
Friends of President Taft here are not

eression omination in New York of
