the effect that her affairs would be
turned over. TO the Oberlin bank July

Beckwith and Cashier Spear were TO
receive 81 900 each year for their trou-
BILE. In addition the bank was TO be
given a bonus OF $4,000 when the
loans had all been paid back.

FAIRBANKS LEADING
INDIANA MAN WILL PROBABLY
BE REPUBLICAN VICE PRES
IDENTIAL NOMINEE.

Chicago, June 20.-The vice presi-
dency and the tariff plank in the plat
form are the principal subjects of dis
cussion among the delegates to the
Republican national convention. The
state delegations will meet today to
organize and select members of the
various committees and it is expected
that declarations, will be made on the
vice presidency which will determine
who will be the candidate.
From present appearances Senator
Fairbanks will be the choice, as SUI
ficient number of leaders have de-
clared for him and announced the
probable support of their delegations
for him to indicate his selection. The
Indiana senator was seen for a few
minutes in the corridors of the Audi;
torium Annex and was warmly greeted
by a throng of men who indicated to
him their desire to see him named for
second place on the ticket. He re-
mained noncommital, as usual, his po-
sition being that the nomination can
neither be sought nor refused.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, ar
rived with draft of the platform in
his pocket. He has been notified that
he will be recognized to move the ap-
pointment OF the committee on reso-
lutions and this means his selection
as chairman of the committee. All in
terest in the platform centers in the
tariff and the sentiment is that there
will be straight declaration for pro-
lection without promises for future
tariff revision or reciprocity.

Ia TOILETTE MEN DOWNED.
Republican National Committee De-
cides Wisconsin Contest.

Chicago, June 1S.-By unanimous
vote the Republican national commit
tee decided to seat the delegates at
large from Wisconsin who are mem
bers of the so-called 'stalwart" fac
ton, headed by United States Senators
John c. 5pooner and Joseph V. Quarles
and opposed to the Republicans led
by Governor Robert M. La Toilette.
Il While the contest is partly settled
so far as the national convention is
concerned the dispute among the two
parties of the Badger state is by no
means ended, as the Wisconsin courts
are to be asked to determine which of
the two conventions recently held in
the state was legally the party conven-
ton and entitled to have the names of
it's nominees for state officers placed
upon the official ballot under the reg
ular party name.
After the national committee had
decided against the supporters of the
governor from Wisconsin the leaders
of Mr.. La Follette's side announced
their determination to carry the fight
to the end and it is probable, in spite
of the decision of the committeeman,
that the dispute will again be fought
out before the, committee on creden-
tials in the national convention.
