Many Of the Cook supporters are va
vering between standing solidly for
their man and Joining the Quarles'

field against Quarles is not looked upon
as possible, as the Milwaukee man is
said TO be the second choice of many
supporters of the opposing candidates.
Many combinations have been talked of
in the past twenty-foUr hours but none
have been deemed feasible. If Quarles
continues 10 hold his present strength
till Monday the chances for landing
