He gathered about him a group of W1 close

uation which la beat expressed in the re
ports that relations between President Taft
and htlhself -are strained co the breaking
point. . . N
William J.. Loeb Jr.. collector of the port
of New Tork; Lloyd C. drlscom, chairman
of the New York republican county com
mittee Representative William M. Calder
of Brooklyn, Frederick 1. It Knacke of
Brooklyn, and Representative ,W. W. Cocks
of Colonel Roosevelt's ho.no distract took
part In the conference.
From what was said by some of the visi
tors It was learned that the colonel and
his friends have agreed on a plan , of action
which will hold ui.tll the situation shapes
Itself mora clearly. Briefly staled It Is this:
Colonel Roopevelt la to stand aside In the
New Tork state campaign and let the "old
juard" fight Its own fight and thua shoulder
all the-responsibility for, the conduct, and
result of the campaign. He is neither to
indorse nor criticise the Taft admlnistra
tlon. , He la to keep out all around it he
can.
'Visitors Give Reaeons.
Through some of today's visitors It was
learned why the colonel had deolded to keep
his hands off. He feels that the republican
atate committee in refusing to Indorse him
for temporary chairman of the Saratoga
convention a position he had agreed to
accept much against hla will, with cne
knowledge that he would be responsible for
election results acted in a manner that
would make further activity on his part
look aa If he were leading a factional fight
the administration.
was said that Colonel Roosevelt does
not deem It either wis or proper to permit
himself to become Involved In such a fac
tional fight, and that hla present decision
is that he will not go to tha convention or
take any part which would render him re
sponsible. He has come to no definite de
cision, however.
, Mar Entter Fight.
One Imia rtant provision was emphasised
at today conference. Those with whom
be talked were made to understand clearly
that Colonel Roosvelt reserves to himself
the right to enter the thick of the fight at
any time, If. he believes that the policies of
which he Is an exponent are in Jeopardy
Hut he let It be known that he would do
so with extreme reluctance,' for he feels
that In such a contingency ha might be led
Inevitably into a controversy with the Taft
administration.
From what was said After the conference
it was gathered that Colonel Roosevelt be
llevea the present attitude ot men who are
Influenced In the national administration Is
hostile to him, and that an open rupture
may result. In such' oase the colonel feel
that he may be compelled at some Juncture
to exert his Influence against the adminia
tratlon,
Those 'who are closest to the colonel be
lleve that he will do everything In his
1 power to avert suoh a crisis during the fall
campaign. ' It lr their opinio that If he
should decide to fight, he prefers to post-,
, pone' the struggle until the 1812 campaign,
when the question of the nation's policy
for the next four yeare is to be brought
