OLD PLAN FOR DELEGATES
To Be Chosen for Republican
Convention as Last Year.

The special committee OF the Republican
State Committee appointed recently to con-
slider the provisions Of the primary law
and it's application to the Republican party
in the state is not expected to make any
specific recommendation for amendments TO
the law. but instead will denounce the law,
point out its defects and leave It for the
Democratic party TO initiate any improve
ment that will make the law II passed
workable
The call for a special meeting of the state
committee to hear the report of this spe-
cial committee will go out from headquar-
ters to-day. The meeting is to be called
for Saturday. in this city. at II o'clock.
The special committee met on Friday at
headouarters and favored recommending
that In view Of the defects in the primary
Iav the delegates to the national conven-
tion he chosen this year the same as in
past years. That plan has been to have the
delegates TO the state convention from each
Congress- district meet in convention and
select two delegates and two alternates to
the national convention Under the new
nrinarv law this method may be used, or
candidates for the place OF delegate TO the
national convention may have their names
nIacad nm the primary ballot by petition OF
the marty committees. To have each dis
,r,c, soIact its own method would lead to
much confusion. 1t was said last msht'

ok AND LEADERS CONFER
Governor and Murphy Disagree
on Appointments.

At the end of a conference lasting for
several hours yesterday afternoon Nor
man i. Mack, chairman Of the Democratic
State Committee: Charles +. Murphy the
state "boss," and Governor Dix failed TO
agree as to the distribution Of several ap-
pointments that the Governor has to make
and the craftsmanship OF the state COM
fnittee.
1t was said that Governor Dix could not
announce his appointments to the Public
Service commissions. the Health officer of
the Port to succeed DR.. Doty and a Su-
perintendent Of Insurance to succeed Su-
perintendent Hotchkiss until next week at
the earliest. AS for the calling Of meet
ing of the state committee to select a new
chairman, that is entirely indefinite. IT
would be called before February 8. and
that was about as far as Chairman Mack
cared to predict
Governor Dix had expected TO 30 back
TO Albany yesterday morning, but Mr..
Murphy asked him TO stay over and talk
over the appointments. They got together
at Delmonicos in the morning and did not
get away until late in the afternoon. The
more they talked the more mixed the stu
alton got and it was found impossible to
reach any agreement
William II. Fitzpatrick, the boss OF
Erie County, was in the conference some
Of the time and took most active part.
He opposed the idea Of Chairman Mack TO
make Herbert p. Bissell his successor. He
also got up and paved the air when II
was suggested to him that the member OF
the upstate Public Service Commission TO
be appointed before February go to West
chester County Mr.. Bissell is anxious to
get that place, and, If he does not get it,
Mr.. F4tzpatriclS has number of other

but from the fog in which the entire sitn-

PRESIDENT BELIEVES
Mr.. HITCHCOCK LOYAL
Denies That Cabinet Members
Have Urged Him to Dismiss
the Postmaster General.
GOSSIP WITHOUT EFFECT
Mr.. Taft's Friends Working for
Instructed New York Delega-
tion to Chicago-Talk
of Fighting Barnes.

Washington. Jan. 22.-Twice to-day Presi-
dent Taft denied emphatically to White
House callers that he placed any credence
In reports that Postmaster General Hitch
cock had been politically active to prevent
his denomination. Once at least the Presi-
dent denied that Cabinet officers had urged
him 10 oust the Postmaster General from
his official family because of alleged anti
Taft activity. and visitors who talked with
the President gained the impression that
he had not the slightest doubt Of Mr.
Hitchcock's loyalty. The President was
reported tonight to have said that II his
Postmaster General were proved disloyal
he would be the most badly fooled man in
the country" He was willing that his at
t.tude toward Mr.. Hitchcock should be
made public.
Some of the Presidents advisers were
inclined tonight to the view that a con-
certed effort was being made to force a
break between Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Hitch
cock, so that the latters service and his
political advice might be removed from the
Taft camp. Friends of the President did
not discount the worth of the political as
sstance the Postmaster General might
give Mr.. Taft Although Mr.. Hitchcock
has declared himself out Of politics, It was
said that there were few Of the Presidents
advisers so we'll qualified at present to give
political information that might be useful
to Mr.. Taft's supporters. With the Post
master General eliminated from the Cabi-
net. this information would not be avail
able.
Many of the Presidents close friends
hold the same view that he takes as TO
Mr.. Hitchcock's loyalty. Several Of these
men. II was said tonight. would not hesi-
tate to go to the President and explain
their attitude If they found what they con-
sidered reasonable ground for believing
Mr.. Hitchcock disloyaL So far they have
discovered no such evidence.
According to friends of the President to-
day, a determined effort will be made in
New York State to send an instructed dele
cation 70 the Chicago convention. Accord
ing to reports that have reached Washing
ton. William Barnes. jr., the Republican
state chairman. is opposed to an instructed
delegation. and wishes the New York Re
publicans TO decide on a platform on which
they can stand. rather than on a man whom
they can support. 1t was said tonight
that Mr. Taft's supporters in New York
City intend to make fight on Mr.. Barnes
in the state convention if he will not con-
cede the necessity of an instructed deega-
tion.
Several New York Republicans have said
recently that the President will get the
tire delegation from New York City, and
that his supporters will control the state
convention.
Just how the President regards the de-
termination TO force Mr.. Barnes to consent
10 a pledged delegation was not disclosed.
It was said that he was told the effort
would be made by New York City Republi-
cans. but had not gone into the situation
himself. .a.....

however. that under the law any one could
force his name on the primary ballot for
national delegate and then demand creden-
tals, which would result in contests.
The special committee is composed Of
Chairman Barnes. Abraham Gruber, Speak
er Merritt, William l.. Ward, George W.
Aldridge, Jacob Livingston and Samuel s.
Koenig, all "Old Guard" sympathizers ex-
cept Mr.. Koenig. They hold that the best
direct primary law is the one that does not
exist, and therefore are not anxious to
place the Republican organization IN the
position of recommending amendments to
the present law. II the Democrats want to
fuss with II, all right.
