COMPACT WITH ROOSEVELT
SEEN IN BOOM FOR ROOT
Washington Leaders Believe First Effect Will BE to
Prevent Declaration for Hughes-Root, in Capital.
Declines to Discuss Move.

said this Senator THE sd.rN senator
expressed the opinion that alter MI.
Root the state would probably favor
Hughes and Burton In the order named.
Some Senators we're OF tho opinion
that the Root movement In New YORK
had deeper significance. They believe
that its first effect will lie to prevent
any declaration for Justice Hughes. thus
preserving the status to further Root or
Roosevelt as the situation may be DIS
closed by the evolution OF the campaign.
See Root and r. n. Combine.
1t Is hard 10 convince some OF the
leaders here that Col Roosevelt and en-
Senator Root are not wording alons
harmonious lines and will continue to
work that way. The faNoritr Sons are
somewhat exercised over the political sit
uation that has been developing SINCE the
luncheon given by Robert Bacon. They
are laying plans and cooperating to pre-
ven, Roosevelt. getting the nomination.
according TO reports.
Senator t.a Toilette to-day issued a
statement III which he announced tina;
he had baggcd sixteen OF the twen'y-siA
delegates in Wisconsin, majority
and that his advantage would lie used
to prevent Rooseyelt's nomination. The
Missouri State convention yesterday 500
iected a mixed delegation. from all ac-
counts received here, senator Week
apparently has more delegates than any
other single candidate In Missouri. Will,
Roosevelt, Hughes, sherman and FAR
banks each will have few.

this was seconded by Senator brown

Brown said ;hat he had learned for the

said that 40 far as he was concerned
he would certainly have II in the future.
Senator Wad~worth said that he thought
1t had been good thing for the party

clear the atmosphere and urged that

Cheers interrupted tho reference OF
Mr. Tanner to the nomination of IA Re
publican and there WAS no room for
doubt that the committee is practically
solid against COL Roosevelt. Mr.. Tanner
WAS asked later for u definition OF Il
Republican. lie replied that such man
must be enrolled as a member of the
