NOTHING but DEATH
CAN STOP MY RACE.
CREDITED TO TAFT
Roosevelt to Be Conceded
Nothing by Present 0Ccu-
pant of Presidential Chair,
Taft'S Friends Declare

WASHINGTON, JAM s.-"Nothing
but death can keep me out of the fight
now"
President Taft is reported to have
made this statement to White House
callers today and to have added that
he had no objection to the statement
being made public.
1t undoubtedly was intended to set
at rest all reports that Mr.. Taft might
withdraw from the race for the Re-
publican nomination for president In
favor of Col. Theodore Roosevelt.
The president is said to be thoroughly
aroused to the gravity of the situation
in the Republican party and determined
to let his attitude be generally under
stood. He has declared that under no
circumstances will he withdraw his name
from consideration by the Chicago con-
vention next June. and has asserted that
his position with respect to the nomina-
ton has not changed in any particular
since he first entered the White House.
OBLIGATIONS TO PARTY.
Mr. Taft has told friends and party
leaders from the first that If he should
be called upon to stand for reelection
he would be glad to do so; that he felt
under obligations TO the party for having
made him president. and was willing to
abide its decision in the convention. He
adheres to this position, according to
announcements today. and win not quit
the race until the nominating ballots are
cast at Chicago
The president was urged by a num-
Der of his closest friends to make def
mite statement as to his position and
agreed to do so in the language quoted
above With this. statement as their
inspiration, it is said. Taft supporters
VIII begin an active campaign In his be-
half at once.
WON'T CHALLENGE ROOSEVELT.
1t was stated today that some of Mr..
Taft's friends have gone SO far lately
as to advise him to break openly with
Colonel Roosevelt and to challenge the
latter to make plain his intentions. The
president has declined to do this. The
White House has been fairly flooded with
callers lately who have brought word
to President Taft that Colonel Roose-
welt so far has declined to say that
he would not accept the nomination II II
were rendered to him.
1t also has been reported TO the White
House that Colonel Roosevelt believes
an organized effort is being made %
"smole him out" aid that he declines
to be smoked either by the Taft or
LaFollette forces
The president has listened to all Of
these reports with an indulgent smile,
but has refused to indicate whether or
not he believed them. It is .vehemently
denied at the White House, however,
that Mr.. Taft has sent an y"messengers"
to Mr.. Roosevelt, "on any subject what
soever.
The president. has been urged for
weeks TO make a more progressive cam
paien IN his own behalf He has re-
piled that he did not think political ac-
tivity eomporte dwith presidential digni-
~. He now has consented that his
friends carry forward the fight as Wig
orously as they desire and he viii lend
what assistance he properly can.

WAR-RIVEN CHINA HAS
SMALL HOPES OF PEACE
Imperial Soldiers Ordered to
Resume FTghfng as SoonaS
ArmitSice Ends

SHANGHAI, China, Jan. 1.-The i'm
perial government in Picking has sent
orders today TO all the generals in
command OF the imperial troops that
they are to resume hostilities at o'clock
in the forenoon OF January 8. unless they
receive notification in the meantime that
theN armistice between the two forces
has been again renewed.
This step has been taken, It Is assum-
ed here, as a result OF a refusal of
the revolutionaries to continue the nego-
tiations with the Picking authorities by
telegraph in accordance with the demand
negotiations are regarded by both DR..
Sun Vat Sen and WI Ting Fang as UNI
satisfactory.
President Sun Vat Sen yesterday in
structed DR.. WI Ting Fang to telegraph
to Premier Yuan Shi Kai at Picking.
asking him to come to Shanghai and
negotiate personally with the president
of the new republic.
The fact that Premier Yuan Shi Kai
is now in possession OF a considerable
sum of money which he received from
the empress dowager to repress the re-
bellion and with which he can pay the
imperial troops has, It is believed, in
spired him with fresh confidence in his
power to check the revolution, as he is
aware that the republicans lack re-
sources.
There are said to be about 5000 I'm
perial troops in Han Yang and the vi
cinity and clash with the revolution
aries, whose force is said to be almost
equal, is possible at any moment.

ROOSEVELT ALREADY
HAS ENTERED RACE,
PARTY LEADERS SAY
Intimate Friends of Former
President Declare He Ad-
mitted to Them That He
Would Become Candidate

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 4.-For the
first time Col. Theodore RooseveIt's po-
sition was made known today by per-
sonal friends in legislative life in this
city.
They declared that Colonel Roosevelt
is in the fight for the nomination and
admitted that they personally waited
on Colonel Roosevelt several months
ago for the purpose Of ascertaining his
wishes in tile matter.
They say that they then declared to
Roosevelt that in their opinion Taft
could not be reelected If renominated.
They went over the ground with Roose-
velt remarlxing that the presidents
reciprocity measure had been very in
furious to the Republican party, espe-
cially to the farmers in the states from
Maine to California on the Canadian
border
These friends Of Colonel Roosevelt said
further today that they left the ex-
president with assurances that they
could go forward in their work Of or,
ganization in his behalf, that he would
not interfere with their work, but that
they did not expect from him any posi-
tive declaration, to his own candidacy,
that he would merely "sit tight" using
one of the ex-president's favorite ex-
pressions.
Do IL may now De SclQ llldl fNOOSe-
welt movement has not been haphazard,
without direction, without head or tail,
but from the start as had formative
and determined purpose and moreover
that the ex-president has, been fully IA
miliar with what has been going on
and that he acquiesced in it and sane
toned it.
1t is suspected today that President
Taft and several of his advisers have
been well aware all along of the un-
derlying features OF this Roosevelt
movement AM that knowledge of it, to-
gether with recent events, induced the
president to make his declaration for
publication this afternoon.
Representative Calder, practically the
head of the Kings county Republican
organization, returned from New York
today and was in earnest conversation
with a number of his Republican con-
gressional brethren j the New York
delegation.
Representative Calder has no hesita-
ton in telling his New York brethren
that Colonel Roosevelt is a candidate
for the Republican nomination for presi-
dent and added that certain business in
terests did not believe that President
Taft could be reelected.
