Mayor as Booming Former
Senator for White House.
ROOSEVELT SAID TO HAVE
SPOKEN WORDS OF EULOGY

Chicago, June 6.-Elihu Root Is Col
Roosevelt's choice for the Republican
Presidential nomination, according TO a
story told here today with a great deal
of cIrcumstantiaI detail The story was
brought to Chicago by Mayor Raymond
OF Newark, n. j., and was related to
several leaders.
Mayor Raymond's story is to the effect
that he recently met Col Roosevelt in
Jersey City. and had a long talk with
him on politics. In the course Of the
conversation 1t was suggested by Cob.
Roosevelt that the Republican party
should nominate this year a man who e1-
pressed strong views on the subject OF
preparedness.
We'll, you and Elihu Root are the only
men named for the Republican Presi-
dental nomination who have come out
with the flat footed declarations on the
question" suggested Mr.. Raymond.
And Leonard Wood too" returned Col.
Roosevelt
Then the former President went on to
say that Mr.. Root would make a fine
President and that he would like to see
him chosen. The former President did
not say that he would take any steps
to help Root get the nomination, but
he made it clear. according to Mr. Ray
mond. that he had no hard feeling for
Mr.. Root because of Roots opposition to
him in 1912.
In the course of this same conversa-
tion, according to Mayor Raymond, Col
Roosevelt said on the question of pre-
paredness there was little to choose se-
tween Justice Hughes and President Will
son. This, Of course, was before the
speech on the flag delivered in Washing
ton yesterday by Mr.. Hughes.
