 New York, June 12.-Charles E. Hughes re-ehtered politics today, ap- parently with abundant zest He reched the city early in the day, estab- lished temporary headquarters at an uptown t1otel, and virtually held open house until nearly midnight. Scores of persons on various missions hocked to his rooms, mostly who had known him back in the days when he was campaigning for governor of New York. There was also sprinkling of party leaders among his callers
 Mr. Hughes issued no statement to- day and expects to issue none until he is formally notified of his nomina- tion- The sub committee to confer with him as to fixing a date for the ceremony probably will wait on him in a few days, and until then, it is un- derstood, he will allow his telegram to Chairman Harding of the republican national convention to stand as his declaration of principles without fur ther comment.
 Plans Are Still Unsettled.
 Although the nominees plans are still unsettled as to virtually all the details of the campaign, it is likely that he will remain in New York until 1 June 20, when he expects to attend reunion of the class of 'S1 of Brown | university at Providence He probably | will remain there for the commence ment exercises the following day. By \ that time, it is believed. his plans in- solar as they concern his summer res- l idence and the chief details of his cam paign, will have assumed a more set- | tied tone.
 Throws of Air of Reserve.
 To those who knew the nominee as a supreme court justice there was a marked difference in his bearing to- day. His air of studious reserve ap- parently left him with the robes of | his office. His eyes sparkled with enjoyment, he had a hearty hand-clasp and a smile for every man he met, and seemed enthusiastic in his welcome o1 old friends who came to see him after intervals of years.
 old SehooIma4e Calls. . They came in droves. One man. al old sehoolrnate, ''ttwno used to call hin Charley dropped in after an absenc, of nearly forty years. Another, wht said he had not seen him for fftee1 years. waited an hour in the anteroon to remind the nominee of the day. when he taught a Bible class in tllt Fifth Avenue Baptist church, of whicI the caller was a member. The class, he said, '.that John D. Rockefeller. Jr | taught afterwards" A Texas repub lican leader, J. E.. Lutz, of Vernon trailed him from Washington merel. to shake hands and say Texas vii be with you.''
 Robert Fuller. who was this secretar. when he was governor, spent the af teTnoon helping him receivei callers and Major Crossit, who was his mill tary aide in 1910, established himsel at the door to the inner office. .
