THE ALABAMIANS
 COULD NOT AGREE
Conference Held in Philadelphia
 Proved FruitIeSS.
MAT TER GOESTO COMMITTEE
Administration Favors Vaughan While Quay and Platt Side With Young blood-Republicans Generally
 Are Sick ofthe Squabble

Philadelphia, June 17.-(Special)-An eff settling the Alabama contests. A confer ence was held between representatives of the Vaughn and Youngblood factions and General Dick, secretary of the National Committee. D. w. Walker and Congress- man Aldrich represented the Vaughn fac ton, and M. B. McKershan and D. w.. Cooper the Youngblood crowd The Vaughn representatives were prepared to make a settlement then and there, and had faction insisted upon getting further au- thority before reaching an agreement. The meeting broke up without effecting an agreement and the fight will now have to be settled before the committee on creden- tials.
 District Attorney Vaughn said tonight he would surely win out. There is really very little interest in this fight here, except among contestants themselves, Republicans generally being sick and tired of the squab- bles between the Souehern Republicans The tendency of the administration men seems to be to favor the Vaughn side while Quay and Platt incline toward the Young blood faction.
 Every indication tonight is that the con vention win be stampeded for Roosevelt The latter has not changed his attitude of opposition to his own nomination, but he will probably have to decide whether to ac- cept or not with the chances favoring his yielding to pressure and accepting.

News of the Clubs.

At the meeting of the Ladies' Liter

STamme was one of more than usual
interest, Dean Eddie gave paper on

Testers of the Nineteenth Century.
The programme closed with beautiful
vocal selection by Mrs. A. T. Vollmer.
Dean Eddte's paper was in part as
follows:
In King David's army was a chosen
! band who attained to the first rank by
deeds of daring and heFOism. And
over them were the three mightiest,
braVest and most distinguished. One
would indeed at this time be bold to
presume to select Browning, RuSkin
and Tolstoi rs the three greatest among
all distinguished prophets of this cen
/ fury Future generations must decide
/ as to their comparative merits, their
respective places in the temple of fame.
But these three are certainly repre-
sentative men of our century, prophets
whose messages have been spoken most
clearly whose influence has above all

ins's unessag e-a message for human
ity for today, and tomorrow. and all
time2 Not all that Browning has writ
ten is message TO any one individual
or class; but men and women of all
sorts and conditions viii find a mes
sage in what Browning has written
The great value of his poetry lies in
embracing essentially all that is human
and spiritual. His voice sounds loud
est and ciearest for the things that as
faith, the acceptance of life, the respect
for its mysteries the endurance of its
charges, the vitality of the viii, the
validity of character, the beauty of
action, the seriousness, above all, of
the human passion.
Speaking of Ruskin he said: Of all
the prophets that have made our cen
fury so glorious not one has shed over
it a more brilliant or sweeter light
than John Ruskin. Versa tile, many
sided he was poet, painter. political
economist, and above all prophet He

forces that went to form his character
and that lie at the source of all his
achievements. The broad, thorough
education he received the influence of
Turner and Carlyle upon him, his I'M
] happy marriage, his authority as an
art critic, his popularity as a writery
are all matters of common knowledge.
In regard to Tolstoi I shall trespaSS
on your time and patience but for a
moment. He has not yet written his
last sentence, uttered the last word of
his message. The last chapter of his
erratic career has yet to be told. Crit
les have yet to make an impartial es-
innate of this prophet and his message.
If inconsistency is the privilege of
genius, Tolstoi has avaiIed himself Of
this privilege to the fullest extent He
is at once a mystic and realist, a ptet-
list and hereto. He is an aristOcrat and
at the same time a companion of the
poor peasantry. He is equally at home
