HAVANA, Cuba, February 13.—New- ton D. Baker, a possible Democratic candidate for the presidency, came and went within the space of & few hours yesterday and hewed to his intention not to discuss politics. On his arrival fram a vacation trip to Mexico with Mrs. Baker, the former Secretary of War again had his atten- tion called to the fact he had been prominently mentioned for the Demo- cratic nomination during bis absence. “It's queer how much more so many ple know about one's affairs than e himself knows,” was his only com- ment, adding that he had been too busy “absorbing romance” in Mexico City to think of politics. Neither would he express an opinion on the recent announcement of former Gov. Alfred E. Smith, whose state- ment he carried in a paper under his arm. He visited Gen. Enoch Crowder, who is improving from an illness. Mr. and Mrs. Baker salled for the United States aboard the Ward liner Qrizaba last night. ORDER NOW!
