Washington, D. C, April 10. Seri ous dissension regarding the menage ment of the Taft campaign, which ha e been rumored for some time became mmediately acute when the Taft cam paign failed to annex Illinois in the pri maries. , From the day Congressman McKinley was p'aced in charge of the Taft headquarters, there have been grave concern among theTat backers The situation was made vaitly worse by the development that Mr. McKinley was to be chairman of the national com mittee if Taft was nominated. Atop of this came the mismanaged Taft campaign in Indiana, which not only cost Taft half the delegates, but convinced the country thai peculiarly coarse and objectionable methods were being employed methods oortain to in jure the cause. Some of the big men behind the scenes of the Tat ', campaign. such as Root, Crane, Smo t, Penrose and others, appreciated the dangers of such a situation. Moreover, these em inently practical gentlemen early be came convinced that the tai.U was prov ing rather too large for the McKinley plans to cope with. They recollect with misgiving that two yeara ago Mr. Mc- K nley man lged a Republic in Congres sional campaign, and List the House by in overwhelming majority, the firsi time any Republican manager hai -suc ceeded in losing it in 16 years. This co sticuted a unique Distinction that did not h'gh'y commend Mr. McKinley tj politician j, w.iodd one concern was to get results. A favorable report has been made by the Senate Committee on fisherieion senator Overman s ti 1 to establish a fish cul ure station in western North Carolina The fish commission has ex perienced much difficulty in finding pure atur for fish, and they believe this p oblem can be solved by establishing cuTiure stations and tish hatcheries in the wettern part of the Slate, wher. tie water is sail to be the purest in the world. George Whitlock, of Ualtiimre, Md., Secretary of the American liar Associ-4 anon, in a letter to Attorney General Wickersham sharply criticizes the course taken by the latter to have Wil liam H. Lswis, of Boston, the negro associate attorney general, retained as a member of the asaociatten. Asso.: -ate Attorney-General Lew.s' applica tion for membership wa.i favorably paused upon, but the governing board later rcinded his election t the bur a - sociation. This will be a Roosevelt week.
