Was Drawn In Reluctantly. Mr. Taft was drawn into New York politics reluctantly. He was glad to see the various leaders as they called anad he urged upon all the importance of trying to bring about an amicable adjustment of affairs prior to the state convention. This, it appears, was impossible and now the fight goes to the convention. Mr. Taft will keep “hands off.” Feels Keenly the False Light He Was Placed In. According to recent callers at the summer white house, the president feels far more keenly than he let ap- pear in his letter to Mr. Griscom the false light he was placed in by anony- mous statements issued from Oyster Bay and New York. The president had every reason to believe that leaders close to Colonel Roosevelt knew ex- actly what his attitude was and what his actions had been. They had first hand knowledge of the fact, it is said here, that Mr. Taft had done none of the underhand things that were charg- ed against him. OBITUARY. Prof. William James. Chocorua, N. H.

Reuther testificd as to the organiza- tion in 1906 of the Osterman company, & Chicago concern, to which Illinois Central cars were sent for repairs.

Reuther testified that Osterman told him of presenting Taylor with 2,000 shares of the Osterman company stock, adding that he would give a similar block to Rawn, at 'that time vice presi- dent of the road, Harriman, Baker and Renshaw. Reuther testifying further said: “One day I was walking through the yards with Osterman when wz came upon a huge pile of lumber. “He said that the lumber was worth at least $15,000 and said he would get the money to pay for it. A while later we came upon many tiers of brass journals and other brass car parts.
