New York, Sept. 20.-Roosevelt DE-
MES today he had gone to New Haven
Conn.,, to seek the help of President
Taft in the New York state fight,
and that the president had refused
his request. 1t was pointed out to
Col. Roosevelt that the impression
had been given it was he who sought
an interview with the president, to
obtain the latter's aid, and that Mr..
Taft had let him know he would add
nothing to what he had done in sup
port of the RoosdYelt Hughes ele
ment in it's tight for direct nomina-
ton.
Colonel Roosevelt denied that, and
said Lloyd C. Griscon, president of
the New York republican committee,
had arranged the interviews between
the president and~himself. Mr.. Girls
com confirmed Col. Roosevelt in this.
Colonel Roosevelt gave out this
statement regarding the inetrview
without any suggestion from me If l
would be willing to meet the presi-
dent, and l said that of course |
would. He had at first mentioned
New York as the place of meeting,
but wired me at Syracuse Sunday
that it would be New Haven and
thither l went accordingly.
Il sought no help from the presi-
dent and made no request from him
directly or indirectly, and had no
request to make. Our interview was

SHERMAN FORCES.
SAYS COUNTRY MUST BE WARN.
ED AeAINcT POLICIES OF
Ex-PREsIDENT.
REAL CONTEST At SARATOGA
WILL BE IN COMMITTEE ON
RESOLUTIONS.
Bv Associated Press.

Albany, N Y, Sept. 2O.-A clear
majority of SIS votes for the selection
of Vice-president Sherman as tempor-
ary chairman of the New York state
republican convention over Roosevelt
was claimed tonight by VIM. Barnes,
Jr., as a result of the upstate pri-
maries today.
Mr.. Barnes, who has been leading
the fight of the "Old Guard" declared
the real contest at Saratoga will be
in the committee on resolutions. This
committee will consider the question
of direct nominations.
The result OF today's primaries
ends the contest over the temporary
craftsmanship and gives Vice-president
Sherman clear majority of SIS votes"
said Barnes tonight. Interest natur'
ally centers in the political element,
but there are involved two principles
of great Importance to the republican
party. The first may be called or
derly political management. Mr..
Roosevelt was defeated in the state
committee by vote of 20 to Is, and
then Mr. Sherman was unanimously
CuOScu DIS Iuc lcuApOI dIy " colulL6 VI
fcer of the state convention, and to
question that determination on the
floor of the convention is equivalent to
boiling a nomination. This is known
as political welching, and had Mr..
Roosevelt defeated Mr.. Sherman in
the state committee, that would have
been the end of that controversy. Mr..
Roosevelt has not acted as Mr.. Sher-
man would, have done in questioning
the unanimous action of the commit
tee. They are equal before the party.
Mr.. Roosevelt has no superior rights
as man to any other man.
SECONDLY, the real contest at Sara
toga will be in the committee on reso-
lutions. There the party creed for
two years will be proclaimed. There
must be determined whether the party
is to be turned over to my policies,
borrow from Bryan. or to remain
steadfast in the faith which has CIV
en- solidarity and victory in the past.
| have done what l could in the pub
lie press to warn republicans of the
Roosevelt danger. and at the prim-
aries to secure delegates who will not
rush madly to the worship of false
gods. We have won."

fort and was listened to by the as.
sembly with a great deal of interest.
Mr.. McHugh is very interesting
speaker and has a way of putting
facts before his audience which
makes a deep and lasting impress

his hearers from start to finish.
In the evening the delegates as

cost, if there are any, will go towards
defraying the expenses of the con
vention, which are quite heavy.
There will be an excursion to the
fort and penitentiary Thursday af-
ternoon. 1t is quite fortunate that
the regimental band has arrived at
the fort as the excursion will be
scheduled now so that the delegates
and their guests will be there at
the time one OF the concerts is given
in connection with dress parade.
Word has been received that Gov.

work for the Baptist church.
