Doctors had warned mem bers of his family that his heart was weak and did their best to prevent him from over exerting himself. Father in Grant's Cabinet. Mr. Fish, whose father, Hamilton Fish, served as secretary of state in President Grant’s cabinet, was for many years a forceful and picturesque figure in finance, while his wife, until her death a few years ago. ruled New j York society as a leader of the “400. j The climax of Mr. Fish's career as a railroad man was reached in 1900, when one of his lieutenants, James Theodore Harahan, went over to the J Harriman side in the controversy over , control of the Illinois Central and re- [ placed him as president of the road.

President May Delay Trip West Harding Is \ exed at An nouncement Placing Him in Altitude of Avowed (ian didole for Re-Election. Firm cn Court Issue I5> L'nlvernal Service. Washington, April 10.—President Harding is considerably vexed over | being, placed in the attitude of an avowed candidate for another term. This was made emphatically plain today at his first direct contact with newspaper nepresentatives since Attorney General Daugherty’s an nouncement that the executive would stand for renomination. Mr. Hdrding also was greatly per 'urbed because of the widespread an J growing attack on his proposal for American participation in the inter national court as a “back door” en try into the league of nations. Finn on Court Issue. The Wh te House statement left no doubt of the president's determin ation to press the court issue. His inclination, it was disclosed, is to fight back at Senators Borah and Johnson and other leaders in the party who differ with the Hugh's Hoover view rather than seek to avoid th*» i arty split which re garded as certain if the court plan is nut abandoned. On the question of his candidacy for reflection, Mr. Harding, it was said, feels that he has been placed in a very embarrassing situation, in vf w ofsh!s con tern ulated trip to Alaska, wltich would carry him across the continent to the Pacific roast. On this part of the trip, he had planned to make a series of speeches. But the president, it was vigorously asserted, will not permit himself to be placed in the attitude of making a “swing around the-cirruit" as a can- | didate. He wi>l forego the trip en- j tirely. it was added, unless this phase ■ of the matter is cleared up. No Reference to Daugherty. No reference was made In the White House statement to the part ■ 1 layed in the situation by Attorney j General Daugherty, who made the original announcement while the , president was vacationing in Florida. The appeal was to the correspondents to set the president right before the country. Considerable speculation was arroused, however, as to whether or not Mr. Harding's displeasure p*r- 1 force did not extend to the attorney general. President Harding, the White House ! spokesman pointed out. has “insist ently adhered” to the proposition that now is not the time to discuss can didacies for 1 f#24. The president hi s work to do, to which he is commit ted.” it was stated. "He has duties w hich ran not l»e escaped.'* No Tour as Candidate. It was then recalled that Mr. Har ding has planned a trip to Alaska ever since his inauguration. He wants to go this summer, it was added, but: “He can't go without crossing the continent. He will not cross the con tinent this summer as a candidate, even if he has to forego the trip en tirely. The president is not going to be put in the attitude of making a swing around the circle as a candidate. “It is a very embarrassing situation. There would be, of course, a great many requests for speeches, and naturally the executive would t>e in clined to yield o some of the demands and make a few remarks touching on public questions. “But he will stay here and work It < lit with Laddie Boy before he will be put in the attitude of swinging across the country as a political con dition. A man ought to 1** able to be president for at least three years without being drawn into the political w hirlpool.” No Plan for Speeches. The president. It was stated, has ' no Idea." at this time as to what will be the subject of his addresses in the event he makes the western trip. There are a number of topics, some (-unpolitical and nonpartisan, which he believes could tie becomingly <l.s cussed. Nothing is so Important in tlie president's mind ns the rnllrond problem. With regard to (“ports that Chair man banker of the shipping hoard Is slated io direct the approaching prcsl dentin I campaign, it was declared never to have been "discussed, hinted (, or even surmised" except in the press. Mr. Harding Is devoted lo Chairman banker and is grateful to him for a "gnat, unselfish service ns head of the shipping board." He re gards tlie chairman s record ns "clean as a hound's tooth." hut the question of directing the political campaign lias not been broached.
