WASHINGTON, I). C, Jan. Ti.
Thc.rtcpuhllcnu political waters have
been furthered muddled by tho en
trance as a Presidential aspirant of
Senator Albeit ll.ilrd Cummins, of
Iowa. Ho had been leunlug In that di
rection. for some time, but finally came
out 'willi n flat-footed announcement
that ho was ih wlllin' Ilarkls. If tho
" pcoplo of Iowa desired to present hli
name lie would Hppicclatc It as a
great honor and aid them all possible
In making the venture succcsiul.
; Tho genoral Impression prevails
hero that Ciiuinilns and li Folletlc,
both Prngiosshcs. hato a thorough
iindeirtandlng and will work In per
fect Jiarniony. Otherwise, the pro
gressives will be spilt In two minor
factions nnd be unable to accomplish
much toward the defeat of Mr. Taft
for reniimlmiilon. It Is believed Cum
mins nnd I. a Follct'o stand ready Id
throw tbclr forces to each other In the
Chicago convention of Juno ID, or' will
both combine In c luting their ttrcugth
to Colonel RoomivqK if u stampede to
him becomes the nuler of tho 'da. At
tho same time Mr, I.a Kolletto has re
fused to cimment In uny way on tho
candidacy of Mr. Cummins.
Get Taft Support.
Tho chief effect of Mr. Cummins' en
trance Into the Republican raco Is to
take away from President Taft all or
a part of tho Iowa delegation to the
Chicago convention. This means
twenty-six votes. It Is certain Mr.
Taft would have received the support
of Iowa but for the candidacy of Mr,
Cummins, Senator Kenynn, the col
league nf II r. Cummins, has been tho
head and front of the two Progressives
that favor his lenomlnatlon. Tho oth
er supporter Irr that faction Is Senator
Urqwn, of Nebraska. Mr.tKenyon has
not yet Indicated IiIh attitude fowur.I
tho changed conditions, but llio Im
pression prevail tint he must nf ne
cessity stand by Cummins. At tho
best there Is a strong supposition that
n,'-fflw of trio ,(uwn ilolegates will sup
port Mr. Taft and Mr. Cummins can
not go Into theionventlou with a solid
- delegation from his own State. In
such an nvent no great harm will re
suit to Mr. Taft,

Trouble In Ta(t' Family.
Tile domestic troubled In the official
Inmlly of President Tuft cutitlnue with
but little abatement As for himself.
tlio President did not euro for Post
master General Hitchcock's sudJcu' because the stork Is preparing to dc
nnd unexpected announcement that heUcend on tho household of Dr. Hav
wnuld ask Congress to purchase all tho Jvcy W. Wiley, tho pure-food expert
telegraph companies nnd mako them a'and chief administrator' of the law In-
part of tho postal system. Ho was
ready to drop that matter when tlio
charge of political trcachory wan pre-
'crrctl against Mr. Hltchrock. It was
declared that tho Postmaster General
was seeking to round up all the dele
gates from the Southern Stales and
Ive them to Col. Roosovelt. This camo
is a scvero shock to the President. At
I ho sumo time, two members of tho
Cabinet, both In high favor, went to
the President and denounced .Mr,
Hitchcock as a traitor in their own
camp. They attempted to produco con
vincing ovldcnco of their allegation')!?
Coincident with tho admonition from
two of his own official family, John
Hays Hammond, who dislikes Mr.
Hitchcock vehemently, called at tho
White Iloiiso and scnt tlireo solid
hours In reeking to establish the polit
ical trcachory of tho Postmaster Gou
erul. Tho President Is Htrongty disinclin
ed to punish Mr. Hitchcock. Ho docs
not desire to request his resignation.
He does not believe ho Is corrallng
dolcgates for Colonel Rooacvclt. He
believes the wholo ugly affair is based
on misunderstandings and mlslnfoitna-
tlon, The outcome of Uio trouble Is
problematical, Tho breach between
ho President and hla Postmaster fjou-
eral Is likely to reach such vide pro
portions at any time as to result In
tho retirement from tho Cabinet of
Mr. Hitchcock.
Wilson In a Pickle.
The quarrel between Governor Wil
son ami Colonels W.itterson and Har
vey also continues to merrily bowl
along without an end being In sight.
Friends of Governor Wilson have
rushed to tho front, headed by Sena
tor Gore, and declnro he should not
bo punished for telling the truth. In
the midst of tho controversy camo tho
astonishing declaration that the real
basis of tho quarrel was that Col.
Harvey Insisted that Governor Wilson
should meet Thomas Fortune Ityan,
tho great Trust mngnato, and have a
conference with him. It la said the
Governor oslt!vcly and emphatically
refused to huvo any meeting whatover
with Mr. Ilyan. The anger and re
sentment of tho Colonel Is said to
have followed.
Colonel Wattemm declines to say
whether this new phase of the row, Is
true or not. He maintains sllejice
and will nay nothing until Governor
Wilson makes u statement,
The situation so far as Governor
Wilson fs nffoctndj thus remains with
out material change. He has been'In
Jured fomewhot by the disclosures bf
Colonel Watterson, but not enough to
prevent him from being far and away
in tho lead as a Democratic candi
date, The talk among Senators nnd Rep
resentatives here Is that n brand now
Democrat must bo discovered ngalnst
whom tlm charges and fallings attrib
uted to others now In the race cannot
bo made. They want a man who Is
magnetic, patriotic progressive nnd
without blemish. If such a man bo
found there will ho n general huHtln

HAWAII CENTER, OF WAR SCARE
OVER JAPANESE SOLDIERY HERE
BY C. S. ALBERT.
(Special H u 1 1 n 1 1 n Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. D. C, Feb. 1. Ha
waii has been the storm center of sen
sational publications during the past
few weens. This bus been especially
'true throughout the Kustern portion of
tho' 'country. These followed the dec
laration of 'Major Gcncrul William II.
Carter that more than 30,000 trnlnod
Japanese soldiers mru now In the Is
lands ns laborers and ready to sclie
tho Territory whenever the word come
from the government ut home.
Tho publications, with streaming
headlines and astounding dltrcgurd of
truth, asserted that tho proposed con-
ccntratlonof troops In Hawaii and tho
visit of the Pncllle tlect iietnciiiiiciii
was all due to the panic regarding u
possible nttnek by JapHiieso. It was
declared that 13.&O0 American troop
are being rushed to the Islands In
readiness for conflict with the Japan-
cse and tho warships aro present to
protect this force.
Major General I.conard Wood sought
to allay the cNCltcment by saying the
plans now announced have been un-
dor consideration for years, that the
total poslblo military strength In Hn
wall was fixed In order thnt the eon-
traction of quarters might proceed nnd
the warships would soon return to their
station for n practise cruise. Sccrc-
tary Sthuson assisted Gcncrul Wood In
denying that apprehension of tho Jap-
iineso had hastened military preparu-
lions or iiiai an
enormous garrison
would lo maintained for that reason.
Uoth of these ottlcluls said tho War and
Na'y ilepnrtmenti were proceeding; In
un orderly and regular wuy to carry
forward plans for a naval baso and
military garrison In Hawaii,
No ii n
lusuat hnte was being manifested und
" Infonnatlon was ut hand to Justify

nepresentatlvw Fltxgerald. ehalrmnn
of the House upproprlatlons committee,
catalogued tho sensational publications

"Whllo somewhat curlier than usuiil,
the annual war scare has nevertheless
appeared," said Mr.' llUgerald. "If an

could ns accurately predict tho first

pence by eliminating the greatest dan

Declaring that predictions of war l
tween the United States und Jap in
were absurd nnd thnt the best proof of
their absurdity lay In the fact that they
had been repeated again and again by
Representative Hnbrnn and hud never
materialised, Dr. liinzo Nltobe. presi
dent ,nf the First Imperial College .of
Japan, who Is here to make nil address
.before the rational Geographic Society.
"Japan has. all It can do to look lift
er Its present war debt," ho said. "In
addition to this there Is nothing In the
suggestion that Japan desires to nc
quire the Philippines or Hawaii, ( Wo
have enough to do In caring for our
own land and for Korea.
"For u man to bo hn' American Is nil
