they are told to vote by .Murphy and

fact. The delegates have not been

fa.t will be llryan uml Taft.
The Outlook for Taft.
The reKirt Is current here that
Secretary Taft will resign from tho
war department as soon as congress
udpourns. This wll not be a shock
to the war department. He has prac-
tically ceased any work In connection
with that detrtmen for many
months ist so that a recent picture
of Secretary Taft at his desk mih.

I with great Incredulity by public men
Jhere until it was discovered that It
had been taken nearly three years ago
Ml the same us a politician Mr Taft
Is making headway. As what might
1h willed u secretary of political;
war he is a complete success. It may
be doubted whether even If Presi-
dent Roosevelt started now to stam-
pede the convention against Taft
which is wholly unlike ho could sue
coed. State after state bus declared
for the secretary of war. And while
It Is true that the ''allies" In the
senate aro antagonistic to him nnd
that contesting delegations will be
sent from most of the southern statc6
yen no one wh regards tho political
battlefield from n detached nud dls-

passionate olnt of view can doubt
that Taft today tins tho nomination
In his grasp. Ho linn had tho cnor
nioiiH ndvnntngc of presidential sup-
lKrt and the necessary support there-
fore of nil the federal otllceholders.
Ho has had tho aid of more money
than wan ever before expended In u
uuupalgn for tho nomination more
even than i.inrk llautia spent In be-
half of McKlnley. The Tuft headquar-
ters swarm with workers none of
whom aro working for fun nnd the

Dear Sir:
In tho Washington Post ot Friday.
April 17 appeared a dispatch from
Detroit Mich. headed "Hryan Repu-
diates Abbot." The paragranh nrlnt
ed under this head was obviously In
tended to arouse antagonism between
two frlomiH in the democratic party
of long standing. It described me as
an employe of Mr. llryan which Is a
statement wholly without foundation.
In response to a telegram from me
Mr. llryan answers from Rochester
X. Y. as follows.
"PnKrs havo misrepresented Inter
. ' '
view. No reflection on your news
service. 1 said that 1 had not author-
ized any criticism of any one and
that no one speaks for me 11m 1
am always glad to commend you and
your bureau as carciul conscientious
and democratic. W. J. 1IKYAN."

made in the Washington Post and
