TOWARDS A SETTLEMENT I

Bessemer, June B.-(Special )-At a meet ing of the executive committee of the Mer- chants and Manufacturers Association held this afternoon, committee was ap- pointed to offer the services of the asso- citation to bring about a settlement of the differences between the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railway Company and the five or six hundred employees of the company now out on a strike. The association feels impelled, if possible, to do something to put an end to the strike, as the continued idleness of the five furnaces would have most depressing effect on conditions here at time when the town is enjoying great prosperity. The committee appointed will confer at once with the officials of the company and the strikers.

SITUATION AS TO
 YICE-PRESIDENT Yesterday Was Given Over to
 Conferences. II NOW LOOKS LIKE LONG Senator Hanna Seems to be Satisfied He Stated That Bliss Could Not
 be Considered for Per
 sonal Reasons
1T NOW LOOKS LIKE LONG

Philadelphia, June 1S.-It has been a day of conferences on the Vice Presidential sit uation. Beginning with a gathering in the room of Governor Roosevelt, attended by Senator Hanna, Senator Lodge and MT. odell of New York it was continued in the rooms of Senator Hanna later when nearly all of the leaders in the city were from time to time in conference with the chair man of the National Committee.
 There were Senators Allison, Scott El- kins, Carter, Lodge, Burrows, Shoup also MT. Bliss, besides many representatives of the New York leaders, both Governor Roosevelt and Senator Platt being repre- sented. When the last man disappeared Senator Hanna looked weary but satisfied He was ready to announce that Governor Roosevelt would not be nominated, that the men who were going to make the nomina- ton would accept the declaration of Roose- welt, made during the day, and supplement- al of more emphatic declarations made some time ago, final, and would not force the nomination upon him. Among the last men to sec Senator Hanna were Chairman Odell of the New York commit tee and L. E. Quigg, who discussed the sit uation at great length It was with these that Senator Hanna labored. He told them that six weeks ago Roosevelt was wanted as Vice Presidential candidate He and other warm friends of the administration believed he would be very satisfactory candidate. The bare suggestion brought out protest from Roosevelt, declaration in emphatic terms that he would not ac- cept the place. After this declaration had been reiterated several times it was taken up by Senator Platt who publicaly an- nounced that Governor Roosevelt was not to be considered as a Vice Presidential can didate Then other candidates appeared, and in a dignified manner their interests were put forward by their friends through out the country.

BIiss Declines

The only man appearing in New York was Lieutenant-Gov Woodruff. The suggestion of Ex-Secretary Bliss brought forth declnaton from him, coupled later with statement from MT. Hanna himself that Bliss could not be considered for per- sonal reasons. He then pointed out that after the delegates began arriving the name of Roosevelt was suddenly sprung with an effort to stampede the convention and force the nomination upon man who did not want 1t, apparently because some oth- CT candidate was desired for Governor.
 As the Ohio Senator rehearSed the con- ditions, he warmed up, and pointed out that under the existing conditions the nom- ination of Roosevelt was not fair to the men who had come out for the place.
 This plain talk from Senator Hanna cleared up what had been in doubt all day. It was evident that Hanna was not going to lie down. It was a distinct show of fight and signal to the friends of the adminis- tration that opposition to forcing Roose- welt on the convention would meet with fa- vor. This tip did not circulate until quite late in the evening, but the effect was soon apparent. There were many friends of Roosevelt who accepted his declaration as absolutely voicing his wish It changed the current talk and men who were conf1- dent twenty-four hours ago that Roose- velt's nomination was a foregone conclu- sion began asking, well, Wno Will IL pc!
 Looks Like Long
 The answer was generally John D. Long of Massachusetts, Secretary of the Navy.
 At once delegates began to believe that Long must be perfectly satisfactory to the administration or he would not be can didate for this place. This idea received encouragement in quarters which made the Massachusetts man a prime favorite. or course there was talk of other men. The friends of Deliver renewed their efforts for the young Iowa orator. There was some talk about Fairbanks but the pre- vailing feeling was that only men who were willing to accept the place should be considered It was urged that an un- willing candidate was not desirable, and therefore the men most talked of were Long and Deliver, but with the general impression that Long would be the ulti- mate selection.
 And so the stampede for Roosevelt was checked and turned and that which seem- ed so certain last night seems well night impossible tonight. Roosevelt himself, his close personal friends working among dele gates and assuming them that the nomina- ton was not desired by him, Senator Hanna and his lieutenants all working to- gether, are responsible for this result. It has been day of hard work, of earnest endeavor, and tonight the men most in- terested believe that the Roosevelt boom has finally been laid to rest
