self has nothing to do with the gossip
but the Speakers guests are the basis
around which many theories are being

The luncheon presumably was given In

daughter of William Jennings Bryan.
Others at the table were Representa-.
tive Sulzer, of New York; ex-senator
Pettigrew, of South Dakota; Cotter Il.
Bride, and Edward A. Newman, or Wash

upon Wilson as the bright light Of Democ-
racy for the Presidential nomination.
The former Senator from South Dakota Is
an avowed follower OF Champ Clark.
The political affiliations OF the guests

months ago was a Clark man, but VINO
later appeared to favor Wilson as the

SWAIN NOMINATION
RECALLED BY TAFT
Investigation of Alleged Political
Corruption in Delaware I'm
expectedly Ends.


President Taft yesterday Withdrew the
nomination Of Cornelius P. Swain TO be
United States marshal for the district OF
Delaware. The action came as an unex-
pected climax to an investigation of al
legged political corruption In Delaware
politics Neither Swain himself, his coun-
sci, nor Willard salisbury. Democratic
national committeeman for Delaware, who
was prosecuting the case, had the shght-
est intlmation that the nomination would
be withdrawn until a few hours before
the Presidents official act was communi-
Gated 10 the Senate. The Withdrawal
came as the result Of a request by Sena-
tor Du Pont to Attorney General WICK
ersham. While it was agreeable to Sena-
tor Richardson and Representative Heald'
who had indorsed SWANS application Tor
appointment, neither Of them knew any
thing of the agreInent TO abondon Swain.
The first intimatlon of the withdrawal OF
the appointment came yesterday at noon
when the subcommittee of the Judiciary
Committee met to hear SWANS state
ment in defense Of himself. Instead OF
allowing Swain to go on with his story,
the committee called Willard salisbury,
the prosecutor, and Judge Hastings
SWANS counsel, into secret conference
Following this, Senator Sutherland, the
chairman, announced to the expectant
audience that "fUr reasons understood
by counsel in the case" the committee had
decided to indefinitely postpone further
hearing.

rancement being made only on grounds
Of meritorious service.
The Sulzer measure provides that the
President shall make all appointments

sular services to grades instead Of places,

BUSINESS MEN
LOOK TO TAFT
They Believe that His Administra.
ton Means Stability and
Confidence.

Perry Heath, OF Indiana, former AS
sIstant Postmaster General for many
years. and who was prominently identi-
fed with the Mckinley and Harrison ad-
miuistrations. has returned to Washing
ton after visit through the West, dur
ing which he visited about twenty
states. Mr.. Heath saw the President at
the White House yesterday and Informed
him of political conditions in the West
Mr.. Heath made the trip at the request
OF manufacturers and business men who
do millions Of dollars Of credit business
in the West and not in behalf Of any po-
Iitical candidate.
Business men generally said Mr..
Heath, ARE simply awaiting events
They have been in a state OF doubt and
unrest for some time. Business every
where is about 3 per cent below normal
conditions. This will not improve much
until there Is a better understanding Of
the purposes OF the men who will be
placed at the head OF the great political
parties in the approaching political cam
paign. No matter what anybody says,
the waiting attitude Of business is due
TO the apprehension and doubt as to the
political future. Agitation is present on
all sides. The insurgents and progress
sives try to teach that everything Is go
Ing to the devil UnQer all tne CarGuul-
stances, business is hoping for a change
of some kind that will bring stability
and opportunity to resume operations
with a prospect OF being undisturbed for
a while. The business men are uncertain
as to just what they want.
What hostility has been directed
against President TAFT, believe, is due
to misunderstanding as to his policies
and purposes, but since have finished
my trip I have observed that business
is beginning to look to him as the man
whose attitude toward business promises
more confidence than any other person
now talked of for the Presidency. What
has been needed has been a brushing
away OF this misunderstanding as to Mr..
Taft, and think this is now taking
place. 1 believe Mr.. Taft will be renom-
inated and reelected, but there must be
hard work to- convince the dissatisfied
Republicans that they have more to hope
for from Mr.. Taft than from a Demo-
crat"

Witnesses Before Senate Committee
Descry Downward Revision.

Witnesses Before Senate Committee
Descry Downward Revision.
The Senate Finance Committee yes
terday morning resumed its hearing
on the Underwood steel revision bill'
with c. c. Ramsay, of the Pittsburs
CrucibIe Steel Company on the witness
stand. MI Ramsey explained that his
company manufactured the highest
grade of steel products and that labor
entered into the cost of production to
an extent of from so to 80 per cent Of
the total cost. Mr.. Ramsay objected
to the reductions proposed in the Un-
derwood bill on the ground that the
difference in the cost of labor here and
abroad would not warrant such re-
duction. He cited figures to show that
the labor cost to the Crucible Company
was twice as much or more than 1t was
to foreign manufacturers. Ramsay said
the Crucible Company employs 10000
men. Its profits last year were, he
said, S25OO,OOO. He estimated that the
cost of its finished products was So
cents on the dollar.
Fred A. Geier, of the Cincinnati Mill
ing Machine Company, was the second
witness. He was introduced to the
committee by Representative Nick"
Longworth.
Mr.. GeIer declared that there were
225 manufacturers of milling machin-
cry in this country. He had been au-
thorized by all of them to represent
them at the hearing and protest
against the proposed reduction in tar
In He added that the output of these
225 concerns was S40O,000,0O0 annually.
He added that the business of manu-
featuring milling machinery is highly
competitive in this country, the 225
concerns being scattered over eighteen
States. The witness declared that the
cost of American machines to foreign
consumers was higher than to Ameri-
can consumers. He declared that the
proposed reduction in milling ma
chInery would be blow at the indus
try in this country.

WANT ROOSEVELT
TO SPEAK 1T ONCE
Progressives Say that While
He Is Silent the Taft
Movement Grows.
LA TOILETTE rs ACTIVE

Col Roosevelt must speak quickly. The
progressive Republicans are not even
willing to wait until he addresses the
Ohio constitutional convention on Feb
ruary n. They realize that the Taft or
gsnization is making headway, and that
| it will continue to develop as long as
nobody knows whether Roosevelt intends
to accept a nomination The, ,progressIves
think that II he win make this affirma-
ton, even il he does not declare himself a
candidate. he will sweep the country.
Senator Borah, of Idaho, who Is count
ed a near-progressive. and who was in
New York yesterday. may bring some
word from Roosevelt. In the meantime,
there is a sentiment among the progress
sive Republicans that the Chicago Roose-
welt organization is not sufficiently ma
tional in its character. Chairman Alex
ander H. Ssyell and Secretary Edward
II Sims being Chicago men, The former
has had some prominence in national
politics, but not as a progressive Repub-
lican, and Mr.. Sims has come into recent
prominence by virtue OF the fact that
President Taft refused to reappoint him
as United States attorney for the North
ern district of Illinois. The present idea
is to accept the Chicago organization as
the Western headquarters. working under
the direction Of the national organization.
La Toilette stIn Active.
Senator La Toilette, since his cam
paign, has received additional financial
support, and is resuming active work,
and although his friends insist that he
must rest for several weeks, assuring
messages are being sent out daily to
his followers in the West and Middle
West asserting that he wifi be in the
field again in a few days. His secretary,
John Hannah. said yesterday that Sena-
tor La Toilette would renew his speech
making within a short time and that he
was as much in earnest as ever in his
candidacy.
Representative John J. Esch. OF Wis
consin, made statement yesterday He
declared that while Senator La Follette's
Illness eliminated" him as a candidate,
that the State of Wisconsin would in
struct its delegates to vote for him "'as
a matter OF State pride" Mr. Esch said
that he was not prepared to say how
these delegates would vote after they
had complimented Senator La Toilette.
This view seems TO be shared by most
OF the Wisconsin Representatives in
Congress.
Republicans are now awaiting with in
terest the speech OF Col Roosevelt at
Columbus next Wednesday. The accent

sttutional convention in Ohio, coming
