viouslv Declared No An
nouncement Until March

Trenton, n. j., Dee. 2l.-William Jen-
nings Bryan called upon President-elect
Wilson at the State House here to-
day.
Il am so glad TO see you" was Gov
ernor Wilson's greeting to the visitor.
When met at the train, Mr.. Bryaa
declined to say just what the subject
of discussion with the president elect
would be nor did he know how long
the conference would last.
Whether Mr.. Bryan will be appointed
to any portfolio. the president-elect let
it be known last night, will not be-
definitely known until few days be-
fore inauguration He said that very
likely he would not make single an-
nouncement of Importance until about
March ].
Scattering announcements will be
foolish he said, "eyen ii | had them
to make I'll wait until pretty late
The time will depend somewhat on
the number of written communications
received. All these letters recommend
ing individuals for office are being
grouped ard will be taken up separate
~"
Mr.. Wilson indicated that he would
not feel at liberty to make final de-
cision until the merits of all possible
candidates had been set forth to HIM
what | am sincerely trying TO do
he added. SIS to see the field of choice
ard try to get as many opinions as
possible that are worth WHILE
The president elect likewise made
it clear that though gossip may be
heard far and wide. he would main
tain policy of silence and nothing
would be definitely established until
he had made the announcements over
his own signature.
Mr. Wilson was asked if he believed
he would encounter any difficulty in
getting the men desired for cabinet
portfolios to accept, II had been sug-
uested to him that in the case OF the
attorney -g-reralship, noted lawyers
lften had been reluctant to leave their
practice. and that for this reason the
candidacy of many able men was not
pushed by their friends.
THAT has not been my experience
.hus far replied the governor with
imile. I've asked some people and
hey have been quite ready with their
names.
