was this:

IL has been only-in the last fort

served for many years, became
known soon after the Roosevelt let

The relations between Col Roose-

served as secretary OF war, were ex-
ceptlcnally close For months Presl-
dent Taft refused TO believe that Col.
Roosevelt would oppose him for re-
nomination, and that he was con-
WINGED the colonel would turn a deaf
ear to all urging that he himself be-
come a candidate was known TO all
Mr.. Tafts friends. These friends
have pointed out that Secretary OF
War Stimson, who ran for governor
OF New York with Mr.. Roosevelt as
his most conspicuous hacker, and
also Secretary of the Navy Meyer,
who was in the Roosevelt cabinet
and one of his chiefs closest coun.
sellers. were In the Taft official
family
It has been a matter of everyday
comment that Secretaries Stimson
and Meyer have been frequent visi-
tors to Col. Roosevelt's Offices In
New York or his home at Oyster Bay.
These visits were accepted as proof
that Taft and Roosevelt were not
wholly estraBged.
There is a great deal OF specula-
ton here tonight as TO the probable
altitude of these members OF the cab
met. If their support is given TO Col
Roosevelt their designations may be
expected.
