For several months It has been known that political differences exist'd between Governor Odell and Senator Platt.

They grew out ol (date ap pointments originally, and it is stated practically were confine. I to state as- Fenred National Row. The fear was expressed by some friends of President Roosevelt that the trouble between the governor and Senator Platt. 'oner or later, might include national political features, but It can be said au thoritatively that at no time has either Governor Oddi or Senator Platt waver ed in his loyalty to President Roose- Yesterday Senator Platt returned from New York to Washington, accompanied i.v Colonel Dunn.
