New York, Dec. 17. Charles - P. Taft will have to fight hard to be elected United States senator from A Ohio, if Theodore Burton can add to the obstacles in the patch of the Cincinnati editor. The announcement was made last night that the offer of a cabinet portfolio, made to Mr. Burton by the president-elect, had been withdrawn, definitely for all time. Behind this simple statement lies a story from Washington and credited by the knowing ones of a serious breach between the newly elected chief executive and the congressman from Cleveland. Everyone knows that Mr. Taft and Mr. Burton met in Washington last Saturday. After their conference neither would discuss what passed between them. Mr. Burton' hurried back to Ohio and reports from that state show he lost no time in getting to work. "Burton Men" Get Busy. "Burton men." the reports say, are

"Brother Charles," who was In New York for the purpose solely of attending the Ohio society banquet last night, did not seem frightened by conditions in Ohio.
