would Join with New York in any &C
ton which would be for the best interests
of the Republican party. as that was para
mount to all other considerations. Mr..
Burton afterward summed UP the feeling
by stating that IL Roosevelt would stand
he would have the solid vote of Kansas.
If he was out, Dolliver would probably be
the favorite.
The Kansas contest for national commit
teeman Is sharp and significant as d. w.
Mulvane, who hopes to succeed Cyrus Lee
land, jr., is the manager of Burton's candi-
dacy for the United States Senate.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Taylor and Gov
ernor Bradley are the two central figures
Of the Kentucky delegation, which has
quarters at the Continental The delegation
is augmented by the Mckinley Club. of
Louisville, with a big band which keeps
things lively. Delegate w. p. Roos sum-
med up the feeling thus: Kentucky was to
compliment Governor Bradley by having
his name considered for the vice presidency.
After that the sentiment seems strongest
for Roosevelt if he will accept, with no
definite choice among the other candi-
dates"
Governor Taylor is accompanied by his
wife, and the two keep to their rooms much
of the time Members of the party say the
Kentucky authorities who bear warrant
for Mr.. Taylor are following his movements
from State to State, but no fear is ex-
pressed that the matter will be brought up
while he is here. The Governor himself
told his friends he had not been annoyed
on the trip here and did not expect to have
any trouble. When the matter was referred
to at the Kentucky headquarters, it evoked
heated denunciation of the conspiracy
against Taylor and expressions of sturdy
loyalty to him.
ILLINOIS-The Illinois people are holding
off their meeting until the delegates are all
here and the sentiment has become clearer.
About the headquarters there appeared to
be considerable Dolliver sentiment and Rep
resentative Lorimer, of Chicago, said: Il
have not conferred with the delegates yet,
but those with our party like Dolliver.
Suppose Roosevelt stands?" he was
asked.
while Dolliver is a candidate, I viii, be
voting for him." he replied.
UTAH-Governor Wells said the Utah
delegation expected to support Bartlett
Trip for Vice President, but the Roose-
welt movement had caused change of
plans so that If New York united on Roose-
velt Utah would be solid for him. After
that Utah would be for Trip.
NNESSEE-Tennessee also has vice
presidential candidate-Senator Pritchard.
of North Carolina. Representative Brown

Tennessee delegation If his name is pre-
scented. which / think will be done. We
were brought up together and Pritchard
used to be printer in my town. After
that things are too much mixed to say
where Tennessee will go, but definite action
may be taken later"
The delegates held a ten-mjnute caucus
tonight and placed all of it's committee
time. The vote for Brownlow as member
of the national committee was - To g. the
three votes being merely complimentary to
other delegates, there being no real con-
test against Brownlow.
CALIFORNIA-The California delegation
has received many dispatches from home
as to the severity of the quarantine en-
forced by Surgeon Kinyoun, of the United
States Marine Hospital staff. and this SUBJ
ject crowded ont politics to some extent
to-day. Chairman knight and six others
were appointed committee to 60 to Wash
ington and represent to the President and
Secretary Gage that the regulations
unduly harsh and needless, as 1t is asserted
that no authenticated case of plague has
appeared, and that the States interested are
being injured by the severe restrictions.
Delegate Fl. 7. Powers says the atti-
tude of the California delegation is one of
accord with the administration on the vice
presidency and beyond that there Is no
definite understanding as to any particular
candidate.

OHIO-The Ohio delegation will not get
together formally until 10 o'clock to-mor-
row morning when the organization will
be perfected and some definite signs from
those high in authority may be expected.
VIRGINIA-virginia organized during
the day. AS to the vice presidency, Dele
gate Morgan Treat, United States mar
shall, said: 1--WE will give Senator Scott
a complimentary vote IL HIS name is pre-
scented. There is no concerted action after
that. I am for Dollver. Roosevelt has
friends among us. but there is no STAN
pede for him.
WEST VIRGINIA-While the West vir-
ginia delegation was meeting to-day Mr..
Deliver called and was cordially received.
He is a native of West Virginia, and has
many friends In the delegation. He was
assured of the friendly sentiments enter
tanned for him, for while the State will
first compliment one of its senators with
a vote, Ii will afterward give him support.
The sentiment is not solid, however, as
considerable Roosevelt feeling has devel-
oped. Senator Scott wants Mr.. Elkins's
name presented. The matter will be set
tied on Mr.. Elkins's arrival later.
CONNECTICUT-The Connecticut dele
CATION is rather divided. Chairman Plymp-
ton, Senator Hawley and Representative
Hill were about the Dolliver headquarters
to-day comforting with Governor Shaw Of
Iowa, but Mr.. fIympton expressed the per-
sonal conviction that things had gone to
point where the convention would stam-
pede for Roosevelt.

IOWA-Governor Shaw summed UP the
status of the Dolliver movement as fol-
lows: "Dolliver is gaining every minute,
and we believe he will be the nominee We
conceded that Roosevelt Bliss or ALI
son would have superior strength but these
gentlemen say they are not candidates
and we accept that as meaning just what
the words state. So, with these strong
names eliminated. Dolliver is in to stay
and is sure to command splendid support
from all localities
Many of Mr.. Delivers close friends in
Congress were at the Iowa headquarters
to-day, including Mr.. Dalzell, OF Pennsyl-
vania. and Hill, of Connecticut.
COLORADO-Senator Wolcott, who was
elected chairman and the national commit
teeman at the noon meeting of the Col
orado delegation. said not word was said
as TO the vice presidency. There is very
friendly sentiment for Mr.. Roosevelt and
for Senator Fairbanks said Mr.. Wolcott
but We have taken no action and We go
into the convention absolutely unpledged.
MISSOURI-The expected contest against
National Committeeman Kerens did not
materialize In the meeting to-day and the
