NEW ATTACK LOOKED FOR Governor-Elect Ready to Charge That Smith Gave Hie Pledge Not to Run for 8enator. Woodrow Wllaon of New Jersey held an all-afternoon conference at a hotel here yesterday with aeveral newly elected New Jemey Democratic Assemblymen trylnc to brtnr them over to his point of view that Jamee E. Mar-tine rather than James Smith, would be the more satisfactory -representative of Xew Jersey In the United Stataa Senate. Five of the men he labored with were Aancrnblymen from Euai County, all of them strong- Smith adherents. -Neither Mr.

Wilson nor any of his confreres would fclve any indication, when the meeting was over, aa to what the outcome was. it waa the general opinion, however, that not one of the five fare Mr. Wilson any hope that tbey would support his candidate. He also had a Ions talk with two other Assemblymen-elect, Charles H. Meyer of Sussex County and Eugene Burke of Morris County.

Mr. Meyer said after the conference that Wilson had used many excellent argument, and that he had come to the conclusion that the Democratic Party of New Jersey could not afford to make any misstep In the matter of choosing Its public servants. This waa taken to mean that Mr. Meyer had been brought around to Mr. Wilson's mew of the situa tion.

The five Essex Assemblymen with whoin the Governor-elect argued were Harry T. Bacus. M'chael Leveen. John J. Kracken, M.

A. Phillips, and Frank P. Shalvoy. M. J.

McOowan, had been asked to atterl. but did not appear. He Is looked upoa as a stalwart Smith supporter. Mr. Martine called at the hotel, but did not see Dr.

Wilson. He said he had been In the city and Just dropped In to have a talk with the Governor-elect, whom he found too busy to Interrupt. There are eleven Assemblymen from Essex County all told, and Dr. Wilson talked with five of them Mylod of Glen Ridge. Brown of East Orange, and Boeth-ener, Macknoy.

and Ballantlne of Newark for three hours on Wednesday at Princeton. The entire Essex Assembly delegation. It Is falil. have been pledged to Mr. Smith already.

Within a few mlnutea after their conference with Dr. Wilson thy met Mr. Smith In this city. lr. Wilson very little to say regarding the conference.

When he went Into the hotel all he would say was: I am here to confer with a number of Assenv blymen, but not with a view to reaching a conclusion. We merely came together for discussion and Interchange of opinion." When the conference was over ha refused to make any comment whatever. If was said, however, that he Intends to give out a public statement, his second on the Senatorvhlp. this afternoon. In this statement it is said that Dr.

Wilson will review the situation up to datesnd again point out the necessity of the "Democratic Legislature selecting Mr. Martine because he was the candidate of the people at the primaries. It will also contain. Is said, a direct attack upon Mr. Smith, accusing him of breaking his alleged promise that he would not be a candidate for the United States Senator-ship if Dr.

Wilson would accept the nomination for Governor. Dr. Wilscn. it is said, told his friends that he would never have taken the nomination If he had tnougnt that Mr. Smith would have Insisted upon being a candidate for There are still several members of the next Lecislature with whom Wilson has yet to talk and another conference will be held within a few days.

Friends of Mr. Smith asserted yesterday that the ex-Senator Is sure of thirty votes. Up to a day or two ago the greatest number the) (laimad was twen- iy-iiv. Robert Davis, the leader of the Hud son County Democracy, reaffirmed vester day his intention to support Mr. Smith, and he has called a meeting of the Hudson County delegation for this afternoon at the Davis clubhouse in Mercer Street, Jersev City.

Two of the Assemblvmen freni Hudson County have Intimated that will te against Air. Smith, and Mr. Davis is anxious to line them ud so that he will be able to carry out Ms pledge that he will deliver the whole thirteen members from hi county to Smith wrn the question of selecting a nAw Sen atot comes up before the Legislature for vote on jan. To-day's meeting will be In the nature of a preliminary local caucus, and when It Is over Mr. Davis expects to be able to announce that both the Hudson and the Essex delegations will be solidly against Mr.

Through his newspaper In Newark last nignt Mr. smith madi the first announcement of his strength on the Joint Senatorial caucus of the two houses of the Legislature. It Is made under cover of a special dispatch from the State capital, and said that thirty-six of the fifty-one Democratic members of the Incoming Legislature have given positive assurance ttiat they will vote for him. Forty-ono are needed to elect. An anti-Smith newspaper In Jersey City announced last night that Ita poll of the legislators snowed that Mr.

Smith will have thirty-one votes In the Joint caucus, but declared that the twenty other Democrats will refine to go with the caucus or be bound by lta findings. Thua far only seven of the fifty-one Democrats have declared specifically for the Senatorial referendum aud for Martine. Of these Senator Osborne Is from Essex County, Smith's home. Wilson will regln his active campaign apainst the candidacy of Mr. Pmlth In Jersev city on the night of Jan.
