TAFT SEES DANGER
IN ANOTHER PARTY
Does Not Consider Chances of Dem
ocrsts with Either Conservative
or Radical Candidate.

President Taft was keenly interested
Yesterday in the rumor that Col. Roose-
Welt might throw his support to Wood
row Wilson, II the latter should be nom!-
mated at Baltimore. although he was not
inclined to pin too much faith to It, ac-
cordlng to some OF his callers. The
President ever since the termination OF
the Chicago convention. has regarded
the nomination OF Wilson or some other
progressive as favorable to him believ-
ing that he would win easily next fall
The progressive, according to his idea,
would lose a big conservative vote to
him. On the other hand, II a conserva-
tive should be nominated, Col Roosevelt
might get enough Of the radical vote Of
both parties to give him the election.
The President. according to this, recog-
n zes the danger OF the third party
movement, and does not take into con-
sideration the chances Of the Democrats
with either a conservative or progressive
candidate.
Yesterdays rumor concerning Col.
Roosevelt's attitude interested the Presl-
dent principally through the suspicion
that it was either cooked up by Wilson
boomers, or. II true was n trick on the
part Of Roosevelt to prevent the Demo-
Gratis making Taft's election certain by
nominating a conservative. The Prest-
sion for publication OF either the Flor
entine" movement or the possibilities at
Baltimore, as calculated to affect his own
candidacy.
Secretary HiIles returned to the White
House Yesterday, and each congratulated
the other upon the results at Chicago.
Mr. Hllles was accompanied by Charles
P. Taft, Of Cincinnati, brother OF the
President. and they were with him at
luncheon. The President is understood
TO have urged Mr.. HIlles to accept the
chairmanship Of the National Committee.
Members Of the committee have inform
ed the President that that body will
gladly name Mr.. Hilles as his choice.
Some Of the members Of the subcom-
mittee OF nine that were appointed by
the National Committee to confer with
the President next Monday, wired yes
terday that they could not come at that
time. The conference, accordingly. was
postponed until July g.

AUTO ENGINES FOR CAPITAL.

The 80 horses now in the service OF
the District Fire Department are to be
gradually retired to private life. They
will be replaced by motor-driven appa-
ratus motor truck and one comoina-
ton motor engine and hose wagon are
among the items Of the District sppro-
priation bill. and Chief Frank ]. Wag-
ner, after having witnessed a test OF
the vehicles in New York. has decided to
recommend TO the Commissioners the
purchase Of tractors so that some Of the
steam engines now drawn by horses can
he converted into motor-driven vehicles.
Motor fire engines cost about $4,000,
while a tractor can be purchased for
less than 5000 As there are many en-
gines now n use good for several years
of service. Chief Wagner believes that
they should be equipped with tractors as
the most economical way OF increasing
the efficiency Of the department.
