WISCONSIN CASE UP.
It Was Chief Business Before the Ma
tiOnaI Committee.

Chicago, June 17.-When the Re
publican national committee met to-
day the chief contest to be settled was
that on the seating of the delegates
at large from Wisconsin. The faction
headed by Governor LaFollette was
fighting for the four delegates at
large, Isaac Stephenson, Robert NJ
LaFollette, James B. Stout and w. d.
Connor. The convention stalwarts, So
called, who are opposed to the LaFol-
lette men, were demanding seats for
United States Senators Spooner and
Quarles and Congressman Babcock
and Baensch. Each faction has a
state ticket of its own as well as a.
state committee. Interest in the re-
suit of the contest before the national
committee was more general probably
than regarding any other question be-
fore the committee.
The meeting today was called to
order by Chairman Payne, who how
ever withdrew, on account of his per
sonal interest in the matter, the
West Virginia. D. c. Owen, of Mil
waukee, as proxy represented the
chairman in the proceedings. It was
decided that H. w. Chenoweth, of
Madison, and G. E. Rove, of New
York, formerly associated with Gov
ernor Lafollettes should present to the
committee the Lafollette side of the
case.
COAAA OltiIs VI AIdulSOIls VINO maze the

were about rs delegates unseated by

in order to gain control of the state
