but little more than a week before the
actual shock of conflict with the old
guard in the republican state conven-
tion at Saratoga.
He returned to New York this
morning from Syracuse, where he
sharply joined issue yesterday with
his critics in his speech at the state
fair; rapidly motored from the city to
Sycamore Hill, where he arrived
shortly before noon and spent the
rest Of the day with his family
The colonel refused to discuss his
plans for the fight al Saratoga and to
say whether he believes he will be Sue
cessful. His references to Mr.. Taft in
his Syracuse speech, in which he
gave his approval to "A number of the
most important acts of the adminis-
tration are regarded, however, as
throwing some light on his attitude
toward an endorsement of the adj
ministration by the Saratoga conNen-
ton.
What action he will take in case an
attempt is made to endorse President
Taft for denomination in 1912 is
subject on which he remains resoute-
ly mute. Reports that he would re
sist such an endorsement have brought
forth no statement from him, except
that he will have nothing To say on
that point unless the question be rails
