as Il topic Of conservation for a time
today when a report became persistent
that Senator LaFollette had held &
long conference with William Jen
nings Bryan after the latter's reversal
i'll the temporary Craftsmanship fight
in the convention yesterday 1t was
sad that the Senator, who slipped in
to town from Washington without her,
aIdlng his arrival, had discussed in
detail the third party movemers and
fad invited Mr.. Bryan to cast in his
. fortunes with the new progressive
movement. An air of mystery peryad.

quarters, it was acknowledged that
| the Senator had been here and that he
would return today 1t was explained,
however, that the supposed conference
with Mr.. Bryan was unlikely because
Mr. l-aFollette in the past had always
held that differences in the Republi-
can party should be adjusted within
the ranks.
As MIR. Pryan left his headquarters
today, Elisha Garretson of Madison,
handed him what has been called the

Ea, for three-quarters of an hour.
Heney and Crane reached Mr.. Bry-
ans apartments by a private elevator
and were gone again before their
visit became generally known. No
one could be found who would discuss
the incident tonight.
In connection with the Heney-Crane
visit tonight it was learned that two
representatives of the outlook, one of
them, Carl Howand, who has been
close to Colonel Roosevelt since his
return from Africa two years ago,
We're in town. Both put up at one of
the headquarters hotels. They We're
anxious regarding the possibility of

Oyster Bay, y. Y. June 26.-'I'm
going to make good deal more trou-
BILE than they Think" said Colonel
Roosevelt.
1T is perfectly surprising to see the
amount of support which | am receiv-
ing. For every man who was for me
to the close of the convention and is
now leaving me | am getting two men
who We're against me at Chicago"
A good many men, the Colonel ex-
planned, opposed him at Chicago be-
cause they thought an honest majority
was against him, but these men, he

the safety of property.
This is the lair of the anarchist, y
he said, pointing to his house as heI
stood on the lawn outside. when II
passed through the village this morn,

and shook my hand. 1t was most
touching reception
