REPUBLICAN wRANGLE
Texas Convention Has Hot Fight for
 Chairman

Waco, Tex, March Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather every in- coming train was loaded down with dele gates to the republican state convention, which formally convened here today.
 Chairman E. H. R. Green of the execu- tive committee called that body to order in executive session in the Auditorium at 10 o'clock this morning. It was agreed among the committee to recommend Wdl- liam Mcdonald of Terrell for temporary chairman, and J. c. Kolp of Iowa Park for temporary secretary. After the tenn porary officers were selected by the com mittee an adjournment was taken to tine Auditorium, where shortly after noon the regular convention was called to order by Chairman Green After the convention was formally opened prayer was offered by Rev Dr. Frank Page of the Episcopal church A motion was then made to in sent the name of Henry Ferguson (colored) of Fort Bend county for temporary chair man instead of that of Mcdonald, recom- me nded by the committee. Mcdonald rep resented the Green, and Ferguson the anti Green faction. Both were placed in nomi- nation and roll caM vote ordered.
 There was a great deal of wrangling. Half hundred delegates were on their feet seeking recognition from the chair simultaneously, and it seemed for time that a split in the convention was inevit- able. It was one of the hottest political battles for ohairmanship ever fought in tine state. A vote by districts was ordered, resulting in McDonaid's election, 42O to S42 J. z. Kolp was elected secretary by 1lnanimoHs vote. It required four hours to complete the vote for chairman. after witch a melton was offered and carried to adjourn until 10SO tomorrow morning.
 Both sides are having caucus tonight, and it is hard to forecast what tomorrow will bring forth,

 BACKED BY GUNS Sovereign Describes Scenes at
 the Bull Pen." SOLDIERS WERE INSUL TING They Used Obscene Language Against the Imprisoned Miners
 Tried to Force Their Way
 Into Woman's Room
SOLDIERS WERE lNSUL TING

Washington, March 6.-Before the Couer dAlene Investigation was resumed today, the house military committee held an ex- ecutive session and decided not to call on the president for aff1davits filed with him relative to the condition in the mining coun- try under martial law.
 James R. Sovereign former master work man of the Knights of Labor said he was in the Couer d'Alene district during the demonstration against the Bunker Hull mines.
 Mir Sovereign described scenes at the Bull Pen." He said he heard negro sold iers use obsence language against the im- prisoned miners. When the men were ar used in deep mines, and although the weather was very cold, they received no ad- ditional clothing. While one of the miners was in the Bull Pen' a party attempted To force an entrance to the room Of the miners wife. The man committing the of fense was arrested by a local constable, but afterwards released by the soldiers.
 When asked who was the responsible of- ficial in charge of affairs, MT. Sovereign said there was no difference between Gov ernor Stevenberg, General Merriam, Cap tain Edwards and Auditor Sinclair. "They all had Krag -Jorgensens behind them," he declared.
