created quite a sensation by charging that

utterly sensational and untrue, adding
that thorough harmony prevailed and
that he did not wish to hear any more
such nonsenscal utterances.
The emphatic assertions made by De-

THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE.
Contesting Delegations Come Up for
Considerations.

Contesting Delegations Como Up for
Considerations,
CHICAGO, June 10.--There was full at
tendance at the meeting of the National
Committee yesterday. AS soon as it had
been called to order by Chairman b. f.
Jones it was decided, upon the motion of
Mr.. Little of Illinois, to proceed to the
election of q temporary chairman, and
upon motion of Mr.. Hammill of Colorado
the roll was called for nominations.
Mr.. Davis of California submitted the
name of NJ. NJ. Estey of that State and
John NJ. Thurston of Nebraska was nom-
mated by Church, Howe of that State;
There were no other nominations, and
the roll was called. The vote resulted
Estey, 20; Thurston, 20. Chairman Jones
gave the deciding vote in favor of the
Nebraska man, and at the instance of Mr..
Hammill the choice was made unan-
imous.
Committeeman James A. Gary of
Maryland then moved that the con-
testants in the Third Maryland district be
admitted 10 the floor of the convention
until the case had been decided by the
Committee on Credentials. This, how
ever, was antagonized by Senator Con-
ger of Michigan, and he succeeded in get
ting it laid upon the table. Then the
Virginia trouble came up again, in the
form of q request by Frank 5. Blair
that he be allowed to move statement
in regard to his State, and Faircloth of
North Carolina moved that the action of
the committee Saturday, by which both
of the conteshng Virginia delegations are
allowed seats IN the temporary organlza-
ton Of the convention, be reconsidered
Lawson of New York moved to table
this and Senator Conger urged that
unanimous consent be given for five
minutes speech from Blair,
Again Lawson objected, and finally on
q call of the roll the motion TO reconsider
was defeated by 20 to IL. When the re-
suit had been announced Conger again
asked that Blair be given hearing and
Hobart of New Jersey made q formal
motion to that effect. By this time the
Virginia committeeman had become dis
gusted and the committee was informed
in pretty heated terms that in view of the
fillibustenng that had been INDUCED in he
did not care to inflict his views upon the
committee. The motion was thereupon
withdrawn and the committee adjourned
until 3 o'clock this afternoon.

FACTS AND RUMoRs.
What Is Said at Chicago About the
Candidates.

Candidates.
CHICAGO, June l0.-The Convention was
called to order shortly after noon to-day
by Chairman Jones of the Republican
National Committee, who presented the
list of temporary officers agreed upon by
the committee headed by John M.
Thurston of Nebraska for temporary
chalrmhn, and briefly addressed the Con-
vention.
Depews boom is not as vigorous this
morning as it was last night 1t is now
said that the witty New Yorker is losing
heart. All night long the Sherman, Har-
rison and Allison forces have been
working against the Gotham candidate,
and they have succeeded in getting up a
pretty lively granger sentiment.
There is rumor that Stephen Ii, Elkins
has given the Allison managers promises
of support after the third or fourth ballot
and It is pretty well understood that in
the event of a Western man capturing
the Presidential nomination Warner Mil
Ter will go on the second place OF the
ticket.
CHICAGO, Ill, June 1913 q. mt was
evident last night that the Western delega-
tions were not evidencing any large
amount Of enthusiasm over Depew. A
spirit of disailection seemed to have
tainted few Eastern delegations also.
| AS evidence of this, the twelve votes of
| Connecticut will be given to Hawley, and
Depew was counting on at least nine OF
| these.
Harrison stock took a boom last night,
and the early indications at the hour of
writing this morning are fatterng. New
York, Connecticut and New Jersey are
favoring Harrison if it becomes evident
that fight involving any amount of bit
terness is to be waged against Depew
Hawley and Phelps.
The Allison people have had som(
faint hopes that the. Blaine men might
help them out, but the latter are rather
drifting towards Harrison and Alger.

CHICAGO, Ill, June 19.--The delegates
who will make the most trouble IN the

Colonel Lamb said: ave arrived here
and were astonished to learn that on FRI

mittee had decided to admit the anti
Malone as well as the Malone delegates
There are twenty-four delegates from Nir-
ginia to the National Convention. The
Malone delegates are, as we claim, the
regular delegation. We represent 6Sl
delegates to the state Convention Be-
cause we voted to permit the Congress

tives to the National Convention at
Petersburg, instead of going home to do
IT, John S. Wise bolted, and with
only 81 delegates to the State Conyen-
tiOn he has chosen l6 Congressional
delegates and delegates at large. We
will be able to prove to the convention
that we are the regular delegates, but the
National Committee took snap judgment
on US, and without hearing our side OF
the dispute 1t has been decided to admit
the anti-Mahone delegation. When the
convention is put in possession of our
side of the case 1t will not hesitate to give
us the right of priority"

Southern contingent by Alger has caused
revision of the Sherman estimate. 1t
shows falling of from 800 to certainly
2S5 and probably to. $50.
A feeling of gloom pervaded the
Gresham headquarters late last night,
which was plainly apparent, even
through the earnest endeavors of the
leaders to keep up a brave front. IL may
be inferred that Gresham and Allison
are together, neck-and-neck, falling in
place behind Sherman, with very slim
chances of even catching up with Sher-
man.
The Pennsylvania people held two
gatherings late yesterday afternoon. The
first was a meeting of the Philadelphia
delegation. This was for the purpose of
considering and correctly analyzing the
Filter boom, which was agitating Penn
sylvanians. After considerable talk IL
was decided TO present Filters name to
the convention and the State delegation
continue TO vote for him until a majority
of the Philadelphians should decide TO
withdraw IL.
At the caucus of the State delegation an
informal roll.call disclosed n poll of 30
vetes for Sherman; Filter, Id Depew, 2;
Harrison, 2; Alger, 2; Gresham, 2 Cam
eron, /; Blaine, Ii Lincoln, /.
10 o'clock.--A summary made this
morning, which, of course, is only an
inference - although based on facts
and open to influences hourly, shows
Harrison in the lead, with Alger pushing
close behind.

CHICAGO, June 19.-"Confusion worse
confounded" expresses the situation.
The outcome is simply a matter of
speculation.
One PERSONS forecast is as good as an
others, the party leaders being as much
in the dark as the rank and file.
The city is crowded as never before and
still they come The air is filled with the
music of a thousand bands. The earth
reverberates with the tread of legions and
there is continuous yell by half mil
lion patriotic Republicans ready to sacri-
flee themselves for the good of the coun-
try if salaries are attached
The Allison boom is the best managed.
1t is continuous still hunt and provokes
no irritation. He holds his own well and
is making friends.
The Alger boom is tinctured with pro-
nounced commercial flavor. The South
ern delegates are looked after in his favor
in strictly business manner, and the in
vestments made in that direction by
other candidates are likely to be lost to
sight and memory dear by the millionaire
Michigander's later distribution OF his
surplus.
Depew as a candidate is considered an
after-dinner joke. His being presented
as candidate, however, still more con-
fuses the situation, butt gives the Blaine
men solid comfort.
Gresham has the local howl in his
favor and if yells and parades could vote
in convention he would be a formidable
candidate.
Harrison's friends keep up show OF
courage by the presence of somewhat
less than million bowling Hooslers
who have swarmed in here from all parts.
! John Sherman's friends are working
with industry and energy, but his boom
doesn't seem to enthuse outside of Ohio
The booms of Mayor Fitler of Phtladel
phia and Jedge Waxem Of Wayback have
: not yet materialized.
In short, the situation continues en-
shrouded in dense political fog impene
J trable to human ken. When the fog
clears up it is not unlikely that the ticket
and platform will blazon forth in thu
single line: "Blaine and Protection"
