There was no definitive Issue in eight when the President wrote his last message. Both parties seemed likely to appeal to the country to uphold general righteousness, and discriminate solely between the candidates. But through his message, the President, acting doubtless In conformity with Mr. Taft's Judgment, blazes an entirely new trail. win rait be nominated? Mr.

Harvey was asked. Almost certainly. And for the Vice Presidency? Hughes probably," replied Mr. Harvey. The President might prefer somebodv else, but Mr.

r- WALL' STREET SENTIMENT Hughes League. Leader Confident the -Governor Candidacy Growing Stronger. In the view of Gen. Stewart L. Woodford.

President of the National Hughes League, th opening of Taft headquarters tn this city, indicates, first, that Wall Street favors the nomination of the Secretary of War, and second, that the Taft forces are scared. The statement that the financial Interests wer swinging around to Taft, as published In Thb Times on Feb. 20, bas been corroborated, he thinks. Gen. Woodford, who will probably be one of tha Big Four from this State to the Republican National Convention at Chicago, said last night at the headquarters of th Hughes League, BOO Fifth Avenue: I am not much surprised and not at all disappointed at the opening of Taft headquarters here.

Th Secretary's friends have set a danger sigmal on a craft that Is evidently in distress. Everybody knows thst the plain people of New Tork are for Hughes. Everybody knows that Wall Street wants Taft. fearing that If they don't get him they may have Roosevelt for another term. Of course this does President Roosevelt a great Injustice, because he bas said and repeated in the strongest possible language that he will neither be a candidate nor accept renomlnatlcn.

I am sorry that my Wall Street friends have such a poor opinion of the President's veracity. I know Roosevelt to be a brave, truthful man, and will never do him the Injustice to believe that he Is deceiving the American people. He Is not. The people may rely on his assurances. Wall Street need not be scared, nor give to Taft'a candidacy the money the Street has not yet tendered to the candidacy of Gov, Hughes.

My friends the enemy must be badly scared." It has been known for some time that the financial district had Taft sentiment to snare, but the manaaers of the Hughes campaign have not been worrying aoout tne tact, oeiievinc mat in tne ions run would do Mr. Hughes more good than harm. It is the general belief among the Hushes men that the Bis: Four from this State will all be dyed-in-the-wool Huehes men and that, with the other delegates from the State pledged, the Governor's own State will be sate enough, at least until Just before the convention. The Hughes League, In consequence, is devoting most 01 its energies to omer States, and some surprises for the Taft people are promised before April is over. JOHNSON OPENS QUARTERS.
