Tho announcement by Colonel ltoosovclt

"We talked fully1 over all matters nnd

been a very pleasant one."

at exactly 7130 o'clock, tho tlmo set for
the dinner. A crowd which had collected
In tho street cheered him. He was dressed
In a dark cut-away suit and wore a
n.namo hut. The most prominent thing
about him was the broad .Roosevelt smile.
He appeared to be In vigorous health.
The Colonel found Mr. Hughes awaiting
him In tho room on the eighth floor, No.
802, Where the dinner was served.
Every lhase of tho campaign, Including
tho Mexican situation, the Roosevelt poli
