DELAWARE is QUIETED

CHICAGO, June 16.-After decid-
ing several State contests on delegates
at large 10 the Republican National
Convention and a number of district
disputes. the Republican National
Committee adjourned until tomorrow
morning. leaving the biggest fight, that
OF the factions OF Wisconsin, still un-
settled.
While there WAS much interest
taken in the settlement by the COM
mittee OF the contests in Delaware and
Louisiana to-day, the quarrel in Wis
consin is regarded as the most serious
IN the party and the outcome in anX-
iously awaited by Republicans and
Democrats alike.
In the Delaware contest the com
mittee this afternoon decided unani-
mOusly 10 seat the Delaware delega-
ton which is headed BY J. Z. Addicks.
il was also decided TO seat the colored
delegates at large from Louisiana, who
are opposed 10 the lily white Re
publicans OF Louisiana.
The colleagues Of Mr.. Addicks who
were given seats are United States
Senator J. Frank Alice, John Hum
and Caleb r. Layton.
Some surprise was Occasioned when,
by 4 vote OF % to Is. the committee
decided 10 seat the delegates at large

ton. wins in the matter Of delegates
Al large but their representatives We're
victorious in practically all Of the dis
triCt contests IN that State. The lilly
white faction expected the contest
would be decided in their favor and
the colored delegates had practically
given up hope OF being successful be-
fore the committee. When the vote
was announced the negro delegates
hurriedly left the committee room TO
tell their friends assembled in a room
adjoining. Instantly there were loud
shouts by all the negroes who were
present and il was some minutes be-
fore the committee could proceed with
its work. The recognized delegates at
large are Walter L. Cohen, Emile n.
Kuntz. Girault Farrar and II. B. n.
Brown.
Henry c. Payne, who became i'll and
was unable TO preside at the meet
ing Of the committee yesterday, was
present to-day when the committee
was called TO order.
The committee decided to give the
Philippine Islands representation in
the convention
Contests from Alabama, Georgia,
Mississippi, North Carolina and Vir-
ginia were decided.
]. II. Fassett and A. E. Nalos of the
Thirty-third New York District were
seated. Mr. Fassett only was present
and he presented a statement on be-
half Of himself and colleague and the
committee decided in their favor.

Many Anxious to
Succeed Victor
MetCaIf..
Aspirants to Fill
an Expected
Vacancy.

The impression that Victor H. Met
calf cannot decline the great honor and
privilege of serving in the Cabinet of
President Roosevelt is general in the
Third Congressional District. The pro-
motion of Mr.. Metcalf VIII not deprive
the district of representation in Con-
gress. Several we'll known Republican
State Senators-for instance, Joseph r.
Knowland. Charles NJ. Belshaw, F. w.
Leavitt and c.. r. Lukens-are willing
tC serve the people as Representative
in Congress. The State Senators are
not all who are ready to undertake the
responsibility of a term in Congress.
There is Thomas Rickard of Berkeley,
one of the progressive and active Re-
publicans of the Third District. He
stands high in the favor of the State
administration and is close up to the
workers who advanced the political
fortunes of Charles II. Spear. president
of the Board Of State Harbor Com
missioners. While Alameda County is
presenting a bunch of exemplary as
pirants for the Metcalf succession.
Contra Costa and Solano counties must
be considered in the reckoning. Sena
tor Belshaw has nerve and ambition
as we'll as the means to put up a
hustling good fight for nomination and
election. His ability as slate smash
er has been demonstrated on more than
one occasion. 1t is common gossip in
political circles that Senator Perkins
recently advised against an extension
of Belshaw's career in the Legislature
and this incident may stimulate the
supporters of BelshaW to universal ac-
tivity in the contest for Congressional
recognition. Complaint comes from
Solano County that Mr.. Metcalf has
been advising the Republicans of that
county on the subject of selecting a
man TO represent Solano and Napa
counties in the upper house of the
Legislature. The story comes that the
Republicans of the Senatorial district
