FULLER POSTPONES
SACCO MEETING
Decision in Staying Case Is
Due to Be Announced To-
night, However.

by tHe RSSOcldleU fFPsS
BOSTON, August 3.-Gov. Alvan T.
F'uller's meeting with his executive
council, which was to have been held
today, has been postponed until 10
morrow at noon, 1t was announced
this morning by William T.. Reed, the
governors assistant secretary.
Although no explanatory statement
was made, it was surmised at the
State House that the delay was to
enable Gov. Fuller to submit to the
council his findings in the case of
Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti,
radicals who are under sentence of
death for murder.
/. Announcement Due Tonight.
Gov. Fuller had announced that his
decision on the case would be an
nounced tonight between S ami 9
o'clock. If he chooses not to interfere
with the execution of the sentence
the council has no jurisdiction, but in
the eventuality of a pardon, a COM
mutation of sentence or a reprieve he
must obtain the approval of a ma
jority of the council of eight members.
It was said at the State House that
the postponement of the meeting
would not delay announcement by the
governor tonight. Mr.. Reed said that
Gov. Fuller telephoned him this morn
mig to postpone the meeting because
he would be occupied all day and that
he wanted to sit with the council when
it met.
The governor did not appear at the
State House during the morning and
it was assumed that he was engaged
in writing his decision at his hotel.
The two prisoners met the day.
which is likely to be one of the most
momentous in their seven-year-long
fight for liberty, as they have the
past several days, even though they
awoke in the death house, to which
they were transferred last evening.
Sacco entered upon the eighteenth
day of his hunger strike by refusing
breakfast. Vanzetti, who began eat
ing on Sunday, after two weeks of
fasting, had a hearty breakfast of
dropped eggs on hash, with bread and
coffee.
Both radicals and Celestino Ma
deiros, whose execution for another
murder has been several times de-
layed. because of the possible use of
his testimony in connection with the
Sacco case, are sentenced to die the
week of August 10.

Opinion Is Divided.

Senator Smoot of Utah, an admin
istration stalwart. thought he would,
although he would prefer not to.
Others said he was definitely out
of the race.
Still others said the issue had been
nut I'D to the Republican party, with
the President now in position to
cast his line into the quiet pools of
Black Hills streams and await develop
ments.
The thought which was persistently
expressed in the Capital was concern
ed with the course now to be taken by
the friends OF the President who have
insisted that he would be nominated
whether or not he chose to serve for
another term. Persons wise in the
ways Of politics do not expect the
answer to this question to be i'm
mediately apparent.
The gossip here long has been per-
sistent that with Mr.. Coolidge
eliminated Secretary Hoover might
feel himself free to get into the race
along with Vice President Dawes,
Frank o. Lowden. Speaker Nicholas
Iongworth, Senator Borah and the
others who have been classed as
eligibles.
Whether Mr.. Hoover would inherit
the Coolidge strength has been an
other subject of much speculation.
The Commerce Secretary has sided
with Mr.. Coolidge on many of the
fighting points of his administration,
including the vetoed McNary- -Haugen
bill, some of whose features were in
dorsed by Mr. Dawes and Mr.. Lowden.
No Indication on Hoover.
Notwithstanding the persistent
Hoover talk in Washington. there
has been no indication from either
Mr.. Hoover or the White House that
he was being groomed as the admins
tration candidate. Several months ago
reports gained currency that there
had been a rift between the President
and Mr.. Hoover over talk that Mr..
Hoover was to succeed Secretary
Kellogg.
At that time a statement by the
President about that subject was in
terpreted in some quarters as a re-
buke to Mr.. Hoover, but the President
removed that idea by sending forth
word from the White House which
was highly laudatory to the Secretary.
On the surface. with the exception
of the Lowden candidacy, the actlV-
tiles OH behalf of the other Republican
high lights have been unostentauous.
MOST OF IneSG men lidNS btEii ~
TO remain silent on political develop,
ments. and none of them has issued
any public announcement of De
sire to enter the White House. Never.
theless there are groups in and out OF
Congress who are in sympathy with
programs to throw the nomination
their way.
There are many politicians in Wash
ington who are waiting TO see whether
president Coolidge will amplify his
statement of yesterday. but they con
fess they have little reason 10 beileVe
he will do so. Thy concede. however,
that political developments pe.Msen
-, nd convention time may bring a
t,,rtber announcement from him.
Meanwhile. those who have pride pride
a. tbeir reputation as political fore
nasters' 40 are saying little openly as to
nossible happenings in the next ie"
months.
