understood to be a gathering of the
anti-Wilson, anti-McAdoo forces. with
view of discussing means of op-
posing the McAdoo candidacy at San

The New York delegation is almost
unanimously against Mr.. McAdoo.
Mayor Lunn, of Schenectady, was the
only member of the delegation who de-
CARED himself for Mr.. McAdoo at the
Albany conference of the delegates
several weeks ago. The delegation at
ohat time refused to go on record for
any candidate. 1t adopted the unit
rule, but Mayor Lunn and three or four
others declared they would not be

WASHINGTON. June s.-The Per-
shlng-for-President boom took now
lease OF life to-day when the Genera,
himself reiterated to friends his dec
iarat'on that he would accept the Re-
publican nomination if tendered r.
him.
AT the same time Secretary Baker
cleared up any misapprehension that
might have existed as to General
Pershings intention actually to retire
from the army. The Secretary said
the Generals letter was subject ~
only one Interpretation, and that was
that the commander Of the American
Expeditionary Forces desired to return
to civil life.
While denying that Pershing's let
ter was timed for its psychological ef-
feet upon the Chicago convention.
friends of the General admitted TODAY
that they had not lost sight of the
value that the declaration might have
at that time.
ne General nlmself declined to DIS
cuss politics further than to indicate
that he remains a receptive candidate.
He insisted that his resignation had
nothing. to do with the possibility that
he might be selected as a candidate,
saying he had planned to retire for
some time.
My duties were to be entirely nom
lnal, said the General, in discussing
reasons for his resignation. e" had
planned retirement for some time, and
had talked it over with Secretary
