Charles William Anderson reports on several members of the New York Republican State Committee’s opinions of President Roosevelt, Governor Charles Evans Hughes, and Secretary of War William H. Taft. The majority of the members have indicated that they would support Hughes’s run for president over Taft’s should Roosevelt not seek renomination, although Roosevelt would be their first choice. Anderson has heard some rumors among financial circles about an unnamed fourth potential candidate, but has not seen any support for him among the actual State Committee members.
