LEADERS TIRED OF
 FRACTIONAL FIGHTS
Republicans in Washington Are Irritated Over Performances
 Alabama and Tennessee

Washington, D. C., April 0.-(Special)- Republican factional fights in Alabama and Tennessee are most displeasing and irri- tating to the republican leaders here, who are getting tired of these personal clashes among republicans in the south, and are inclined to blame all concerned. The fact that these fights mean contests before the Philadelphia convention is especially irri- tating' and unsatisfactory to the republi- can national managers.
 General Charles Dick, secretary of the republican national committee, said today: q think the factional contests in Alabama and Tennessee are most unfortunate not as affecting the chances of the republican party this year, because they occur in states where we have no hope of electoral votes, but they are unfortunate for those engaged in them Here only few months ago we had a contest in the national com mittee over the representation of the south ern states in the national convention The strongest argument for passing representa- tion upon votes cast was that the southern republicans did nothing but indulge in fac tional fight. Here they are justifying that statement" All

 It was rumored last night that the list of delegates prepared by General Shelley campaign managers, which is said to be headed by Colonel J. J. Altman, contained the names of five active supporters of Gov ernor Johnston, two of whom were his political appointees, and that while the Morgan leaders made no objection to the selection of a small proportion of John- ston men, they would object to the dele gation. It is also said that before the con- vention meets they will advise that ac- tive Johnston men be left off.
 While 1t is said that the delegation has been made up it is also understood that General Shelley has not been consulted as to the entire ticket, and it may be changed this morning.
