There 1 considerable talk to the effect that Postmaster-General Hitchcock mv bo chosen a eam raign manaa-er for President Taft. bat the report thus far lacks official con firmation, and In some quarters Is re garded with a irreat deal of suspicion. Whatever tbre mar be to the report. It la no secret that a Bomber of the moit loyal friends of the President frown upon this proposal, and are very much opposed to placing the manage ment of the President's campaign In Mr. Hitchcock's bands. This la but an other way of sarins; that som of the President's ac. nowledged friends ques tion the loyait- of Mr. Hitchcock, not withstanding he himself has come out flatly in favor of Mr. Taft's renomina ting Ability Is Vaqueetloae. If Mr. Hitchcock Is aa loyal to Presi dent Tsft aa he professes to be. and, If h should. In that event, be given the management of the campaign for re nomination, he would unquestionably be able to do much to strengthen the Presld-nt. particularly In the South, where the Roosevelt managers are now at work with some signs of success. From his experience as campaign man ager four years (o, and as chairman nf the Republican National Committee then and later, he has become closely affiliated with many of the Southern Republican leaders, and haa much In fluence anions; them. In that respect Hitchcock has more Influence than the President himself, for the: leaders have always conducted their political business through Mr. Hitchcock, and not direct with the White House. It ran readily be seen, therefore, that If Hitchcock Is loyal and should be placed In charge of the Taft campaign, he probably could head off the plan of the Roosevelt managers to prevent the Instruction of Southern delegates for Tsft. and. on the ot.-ier hand, could al most guarantee a solid Southern dele gation for Taft. It may be thla la one or the things that has led to the re port that Hitchcock will be made man ager. Move Peesaea Cawtee. But while there Is all this to be 'said In Hitchcock's favor, political friends of the President think It would be un wise to place Mr. Hitchcock in charge. Aside from their suspicions that be is not primarily favorauie to Taft. they point out that at the Chicago conven tion, when the supporters of Mr. Taft were working to place Albert J. Cum mins, of Iowa, cn the l.rt as Vice President. Mr. Hitchcock yielded to the Influence of the opposing faction the allies, as they were then called and rr.ale possible the nomination of James S. Sherman, of New Tork. whose nom ination was desired neither by Mr. Taft nor by president Roosevelt. These men claim that Hitchcock, by standing pat. rould have forced the nomination of Cummins, and need not have opened the way for Sherman. But he gave in. so It Is charged, and Sherman went on the ticket. And this one act Is the single thing held up aa an Indication of Hitchcock s political weakness. Dlaleyalty ot Charged. By all oods It is to be presumed that a man of Mr. Hitchcock's prominence and high standing would be loyal to President Taft If he ahould undertake the management of his campaign; It would be Insult to Insinuate) that he would attempt to sell out when the campaign was In his hand. And this thing is not charged. But the doae friends of the President do maintain that a more suitable man can be found to conduct the campaign one who Is above suspicion. For It cannot be denied that Mr. Hitchcock's loyalty to the President Is suspected by a great many Republicans, The publication of his Government ownership of telegraph lines. hea be knew the proposal was disapproved by the President, is pointed to as one thing. His queer conduct during the meeting of the Republican National Committee lxst December la another. Maay Aetlema ITaexsIalaed. Added to this are his secret trips to New Tork: his alleged visits with colonel Roosevelt: his conferences with financial men who are known to be behind Rooeevelt. and a. number of other Incidents are all combined la the minds of those who are opposing Hitchcock aa Justifying suspicion of his loyalty to President Taft. Many who suspect him are not ready to accuse Mm: In fact, it Is doubtful If any would rise In their places and de nounce him; but thoe who advise against bis selection are a unit In de claring that a man absolutely above suspicion should be given the manage ment of the campaign.

INSURGENTS AID MEASURE By Coalition Willi Democrats They Defeat Efforts to Amend Fate in Senate " Which Eagerly Await) Action Is Problem. WASHINGTON, Jan. it. The Demo- cratlo metal tariff revision, to make reductions averaging 35 per cent from the existing steel and Iron duties of the Payne-Aldrlch law, passed the House today by a vote of 210 to 109. Republican efforts to amend or de bate the bill were brought to a sudden end when Democratic Leader Under wood refused to permit the offering of further amendments and forced the Honse to a final vote. Twenty insurgent Republicans voted for the measure, while the Democratic delegation from Colorado, Representa tives Martin. Rucker and Taylor, dis satisfied with the great reduction pro posed in the lead tariff, voted against the Democratic majority. Maay Insurgent Favor. Tbe Republicans who supported the bill, all Insurgents, were: RenresentaXivea Davis and una- bergh, Minnesota; Haugen, Hubbard and Woods. Iowa: Helgeson, North Da kota: Jackson. Murdock and Toung, Kansas; Kent and Stephens, California; Klnkaid. Norrls and Sloan, Nebraska; Lafferty, Oregon; La Follette and War burton. Washington; Lenroot, Morse and Nelson. Wisconsin. The Insurgent Republicans wno voted against the bill were: Anderson, Miller. Holstead and Bteenerson. Minnesota; Cooper, Esch and Kopn. Wisconsin; French, Idaho; Good, Green. Kendall. Kennedy and Pickett. Iowa; Hayes, California. Defeated repeatedly In their at tempts to force amendments into the measures, the Republicans raiiieo xor the last attack upon the motion of Representative Payne, of New York, former Republican chairman of the ways and means committee, to recom mit the bill to that committee with In structions to hold until the tariff com mission made a report on the metal schedule. This motion was defeated. 20S to 108. The regular Republicans protested to the last against the application of rules closing the debate. Mr. Under wood was charged by Republican Leader Mann with the "ruthless appli cation" of the force of the Democratic majority. Many attempts to strike out sections of the Democratic free list were made, but amendments by Mr. Mann to restrict the Democratic free list which Includes typewriters, print ing machinery, machine tools, sewing machines and other articles to coun tries that do not discriminate against American cottonseed, live cattle, meats and meat products, were defeated. Senate Await Bill. The bill will face a stormy reception In the Senate tomorrow, where it will be sent to the finance committee. Both Republican and Democratic Senators have been deferring other legislation with a view to concentrat ing attention on the tariff measures as they emerge from the House, but no course of action haa been mapped out. Democratic Senators expressed hope today that the progressive Republicans would Join with them in the same co alition that enabled tbe Senate to put through the tariff bills at the extra session and to leave the Issue squarely up to the President. WATTERS0N HEAPS SCORE (Continued From First Pare-) fused my offer ss tp the Issue of vera city be has raised between us to sub mit proof of the truth of my averment to party associates competent to Judge bot"i of Its chsratcer and the expedi ency of Its publication, I shall bring this most distasteful episode to a close as far as I am concerned. Governor Wllsoa Dared. "The claim that I must rush into print with this proof emanates either from the perverse or the malignant. I bave It, am ready under proper su pervision to produce it, and can be asked In reason to do no more. If I should publish It the very men who are demanding that I shall, would be first to accuse me of reckless dis regard of what they-would call party prudence and private rights. "The sole Issue Is whether I bave lied, as Governor Wilson says I have, or he has lied, which I have engaged conclusively to show. He dare not face the facts. "During the early Summer of 1910 I was passing a week-end with Colonel George Harvey, an old friend, at Deal Beach, his home In New Jersey. There arrived for dinner Dr. Woodrqw Wil son, then president of Princeton, and James Smith. Jr.. late a Senator. Dr. Wilson I had never met before. "The talk of the table was mainly about the prospective nomination of a Democratic candidate for Governor of New Jersey. Drawn into the conver sation. I ventured the opinion that If nothing more thao a Governorship was In sight it would be a sacrifice for Dr. Wilson to quit his exalted station at the head of a great university and get Small Space AST A BIO BUSINESS has been built by aJ ver- . . a.

"That was probably what Colonel Harvey, who seemed under some spell wrought by Dr. Wilson, had planned. Mr. Smith declared that he wanted nothing for himself; only to see the state redeemed; that no one but Dr. Wilson could redeem It, and the like. In due" season Dr. Wilson was nomi nated and elected. Wattersoa Draarooaed, He Say. "The Presidential campaign, to which the gubernatorial election had served as a prelude, began. In a man ner I had been dragooned. I will not say decoyed. Into the service of Gov ernor Wilson and Colonel Harvey. The succeeding ten months brought me Into confidential relations with Governor Wilson. Letters passed between us. Upon his invitation and on his busi ness I visited his home In Princeton. He waa good enough last Winter to come to the steamer to see me off for Europe. "1 found him a man of polished man ners, scholarly attainments and unde niable talents. "On my return from abroad the Gov ernor met me In New York. Again in November and December we fore gathered there. In short, nothing waa wanting to the most cordial and un-i restrained Intimacy. "The fortnight immediately preced ing the interview at the Manhattan Club, of which I have been at pains to say as little as was needful, to do Justice between man and man and men and men. I had done what I could in tbe Interest of his campaign. "I was met on my arrival In New Tork by a most urgent appeal for money from a gentleman of distinct ion, closely associated with, if not actually directing, the Wilson organiza tion, and In answer to this I was able at once to secure considerable money. The meeting at the Manhattan Club was designed still further to push for ward and perfect the work of organ ization. Else why and for what waa the Governor there? Cloud Ins; of Issue Resented. "To confuse and mislead the public, he has latterly adopted a policy of al ternate silence and sneering. Giving the He direct to my statement that I was asked to help the financial end of his campaign and declining my offer to submit- tbe proof of its truth to a body of gentlemen and Democrats equally concerned with ourselves for the well being of the party, he thinks to cloud the Issue and escape its men ace by turning upon the Irresponsible chatter of a literary bureau which claims to live off the immaculate con tributions of subscribers having wings, harps and halos, and which ha been for weeks flooding the country with every manner of falsification. "The Ryan story, which has made such an Impression upon the more knowing and reflecting, was. as far as It related to Colonel Harvey, a lie out of whole cloth. "Though Governor Wilson knows this, be has allowed it to circulate without contradiction. The attempt which followed Its exposure by me to make It appear that I have intimated that application was made to Mr. Ryan, is a cuff of the same cloth and Is char acteristic of the duplicity which at taches to the entire proceedings of the Governor and his publicity agent. "The action of Mr. Ryan was eagerly caught up by these agents. Fancy a political promoter refusing money from anywhere or body. But when I spoke to Governor Wilson about it, he said some uncivil things of Mr. Ryan, expressing a fear that if the knowl edge of such a contribution got abroad It might do more harm than good an opinion with which Colonel Harvey promptly concurred and the matter went no further. Certain it is that Mr. Ryan never heard of the matter. Neither I nor anyone eld spoke to him on the sub ject. "The effort' of the Wilson promoters to revive It and bring it to the front is simply an unprincipled attempt to divert the public attention from the fact that Governor Wilson has been rattling around as a hero because of his Indignant rejection of Ryan, the truth being that Ryan was never pressed upon him at all. "His courageous repudiation of Har vey, which has put such a feather in his cap, was of a piece with this. Whilst Governor Wilson was receiving popular applause because of his sacri fice of private friendship to publlo duty he was grovelling at Harvey"s feet after pardon for the shameless and heartless treatment he admitted hav ing bestowed upon Harvey at the Man hattan Club. If he possessed a spark of honorable sensibility, he would at once demand and require the publica tion of the abject letters he wrote to Harvey when he was made to realize he must square the account of Ingrati tude or take the consequences. "Meanwhile, let me say that whilst the Governor's tardy repentance may placate the forgiving Colonel Harvey whilst It may even satisfy the suscep tible Mr. Bryan I refuse longer to fol low a man whose nomination would In my Judgment be a disaster and whose election a calamity. He who could show Himself so disloyal to private friendship cannot be trusted to be loyal to anything. "Within a single year Governor Wil son's radical change of base, his re alignments, his readjustments, personal and political, his offenses to some and apologies to others, have been exactly concurrent with his selfish alms. There seems no abasement into which ho Is able to descend with equal facility and grace. May God protect Democracy from such a leader and such leader- "The niche vacated by Governor Wil son I shall not undertake to AIL I hold nothing in reserve, am backing no other aspirant, advancing no other Interest. I shall go to my Winter home in Florida, beyond the reach even of the telegraph, sure that in this matter I have done my duty alike to public obligations and private friendship and having not a care beside."
