LEADERS DO MUCH coNFERRrNG
Proposal That Lowden Withdraw Is
Promptly Turned Down.

Proposal That Lowden Withdraw Is
Promptly Turned Down.
There were two sessions of the con-
vention one beginning 1923 a. m. and
the other at 7:3O p. m. During the
afternoon the political leaders, includ-
ing Senators Cullom and Hopkins and
Representative Lorimer, spent the time
in conferences concerning which none
of them would talk for publication.
During the early part of the afternoon
an effort was made to have LOwden
get out of the race, and suggestions
along this line were made to him by a
large number of those who have been
friendly to him. He was told that
was now evident that the Yates people
would not, under any circumstances.
give him enough votes to bring about
his nomination.
AT the time Lowden showed his
greatest strength in the convention his
followers desired to have an adjourn
ment with him in the lead, but the
Yates people combined with the De
neen followers and refused to consent
to the recess until the Yates votes
which had gone to Lowden had re-
turned to the governor. This fact was
urged upon Lowden as indicating that
he had nothing to hope for from the
Yates following. The more loyal Of
Lowden's people refused to listen to
this talk, and they urged their candi-
date to stand firm.
An attempt to combine the anti
Yates delegates on Warner was futile
for the reason that Hamlin and Sher-
man refused to discuss it and Deneen
laughed at the proposition. During the
afternoon some of the Deneen dele
gates got together and prepared tele-
gram to President Roosevelt protesting
against the activity of the federal
employees in behalf of Lowden." Older
heads in the delegation pointed out
that this would be suicidal, as De-
neen might want the assistance Of the
federal influence later, and the mes
sage was not sent.

CoRTELYoU FOR MANAGER

His Name for National Republican Chair
man Is In Favor.
Washington, May IL. = George b.
Cortelyou. secretary of the department
of commerce and labor, it seems very
likely now. may be selected as chair
man of the Republican national COM
mittee. While i'm no sense endeavoring
to anticipate the action of the Chicago
convention, or that OF the national COM
mittee to chosen at that convention,
President Roosevelt and leaders of the
Republican party generally have can
vassed for months the subject of the
national craftsmanship. Some time ago
the name of Secretary Cortelyou was
suggested. 1t met instant favor.
1t is known that Cortelyou sustalns
very close relations not only with
President Roosevelt, but also with par
ty leaders throughout the country. He
is regarded as being admirably
equipped for the position. possessing
fine executive ability and thorough
knowledge of men and affairs. For
several years he has been intimately
identified with political management,
scarcely any man sustaining more con-
fidential relations with President Nc
Kinley, Senator Hanna and President
Roosevelt than he. If he should be
selected national chairman he would
resign his position in the cabinet.

Now That He Has . Companian In Mis-
fortune Among the warships.
st. Petersburg, May IL, 2.25 a. m.-
Owing to the interruption of communi-
cation with Port Arthur the admiralty
has no information of its Own either
regarding the blowing up of the Japa-
nese cruiser Miyako on May 10 or the
torpedoing and crippling of an armored
japanese cruiser in Talienwan bay
May 10 by a naphtha launch in COM
<nand of a young Russian naval off,
Ger. The admiralty officers read with
interest the Associated Press account
of the former, and pointed out that By
no chance could the two happenings
be identical, since the Miyako struck
in daylight and the other event is re-
ported as happening at night.
The admiralty, while awaiting news
of either incident, points out the feast
bility of the launch exploit, since the
equipment for sending torpedoes from
small boats, an invention of the late
Vice Admiral Makaroff, was utilized
in the Russo-Turkish war. Whether
one or two japanese ships haze been
crippled satisfaction is expressed at
the admiralty that there has been some
equivalent for the disasters to the Port
Arthur feet

Zassalitch's Fate Was Decided by His
Heavy Loss of Men.
st. Petersburg, May 1S.-Since the
battle of the Yalu it has been pre-
dicted that General Zassalitch would
not long retain his command, but there
has been no disposition to act hastily.
The emperor's advisers could not for
get that while Zassalitch did not carry
out the plan of operations which had
been previously determined upon he
had displayed a stubborn resistance
which showed to the enemy and to the
world that the Russians had not lost
the courageous spirit of past genera
tions.
What will become Of Zassalitch-
whether he will remain in the Far
East or be assigned to less important
region-cannot be learned. but it en-
phatically stated that there is no in
tention to disgrace him, and that il he
returns from the Far East it will be on
sick leave and at his own request.

Madison, Wis, May 1S.-The situa-
ton in the Republican state conven-
ton is critical. The fight of the third
termers VS.. the anti-third-termers is so
warm chat threats of a bolt are quite
prevalent if the action of the state
comInittee is unsatisfactory. A ma

ton is claimed by the adherents of

of Neenah. The managers of Gov
ernor LaFOllette' scampaign allege that
out of total of LOGS delegates their
candidate will have over 600, or a good
majority over the number necessary to
control-533. The anti-third termers
claim 660 delegates.
In the tables made up by each fac
ton both claim thedelegates from Ash
land, Dodge, Oconto, Eau Claire, and
Pepin counties. The contested case
will be settled by the state central
committee, which is composed largels
of LaFollette supporters. 1t is said
to be the plan of this committee to
seat all. or nearly ALL of the delegates
from contested counties who will be
favorable to LaFollette.

by majority OF Nineteen.
Santa Cruz, CAL, May Is. = BY a
majority of nineteen votes the Demo
cratic state convention instructed the
delegation to the nationcl convention ut
st. Louis to vote for W. r. Hearst for
president. The vote stood: For instruc-
ton, 36j; against, 346. The day was
consumed in attempting. to effect per-
manent organization drafting resolu-
tions, oratory and clearing the decks
for vote.
The platform declares the difference
between the parties on the tariff ques-
ton is one of degree, and that the
abolition of the tariff on products of
foreign countries is not contemplated
by the Democratic party. Therefore
the Democratic party pledges itself to
q careful and fair revision of the exr
listing tariffs, the idea being to let in
Tree all ''trust-made" articles. The
platform, recognizes 'the organization
of labor to be a distinct contribution
to our growing civilization,
and believes in progressive legislation
looking to shorter hours of labor and
to the enforcement of better relations
between employers and employed,
through some rational means of arbi-
tration"

Announced>-Amusement Question Is
Brought Up and Shelved.

Los Angeles, Cal, May IL. Con-
trary TO expectation the result of the
secret ballot taken last Saturday by
the Methodist general conference on
the subject of the retirement of Bish-
ops Andrews, Mallalieu, Vincent, Wal
den and FOss was not made public at
yesterdays session of the conference
There is no doubt, however, accord
ing to the most reliable authority, that
all of the five bishops have been re-
tired by the vote of an overwhelming
majority of the delegates. The con-
ference adopted resolution allowing
each retired bishop full pay for six
months from the date of his retire
ment.
The amusement question came up
for further discussion. DIR. Elliott, of
Detroit, presented a resolution setting
forth that there was doubt in the
rainds of many of the delegates as to
the constitUtionality of paragraph 25S
of the discipline. and asking that the
matter be referred to the judiciary
committee for report on the subject.
The resolution was rejected.

New Chwang.

New Chwang, May 1.-THE Rus
slams were surprised by the appear
anee of the enemy at Kai-Chau, twen-
ty miles south of Yin-Kow yesterday
morning. They were expecting the
Yalu army. Nine transports, assisted
by the navy, landed 100 soldiers, and
the remainder landed last night and
today. The number of the japanese
force is not known. The warships
sheiled the shore from early morning
until o'clock. The Japanese are ex-
pected here on Wednesday, and the
Russians are rapidly evacuating the
town.
Loildon, May 1.-THE Shanghai cor
respondent of The Morning Post, ca
bling under date of May IL. says that
according to native report from Port
Arthur the Japanese are vigorously
besieging the fortress night and day,
by land and sea. that sixty Japanese
warships and transports have been
sighted in Blackney bay and that heavy
firing has been heard i'm Kin-C -Chau bay.
London. May 17.-At this writing
the only matters of importance coming
from the Far East are reports that a
great battle is imminent in the vicinity
of Lao Yang, il being stated that the
Russians are determined to make a
stand there. This story has not been
confirmed, and, in fact, cannot be
traced to any source. The other news
Is that of the sinking of a Japanese
dispatch boat = the Miyako which
struck a submerged Russian mine in
Kerr bay while engaged in removing
the mines from the bay. Kerr bay is
northeast of Talienwan bay, upon
which Port Dalny is situated
Two Killed and twenty-five Wounded
The telegram from Toxic giving the
account of the disaster to the Japs
says that Admiral kataoka was in the
bay with a detachment of his squad
ron protecting torpedo boats which
were clearing the harbor of mines. The
account then proceeds: Five mines
were discovered and exploded and the
work had been suspended for the day
when the Miyako struck an unjiscov-
cred mine, which exploded with tre-
mendous force under the stern, on the
port side, and inflicted immense dam
age on the hull The Miyako sank in
twenty-five minutes Two sailors were
killed and twenty-five men were
wounded. The rest of the crew was
rescued"

Dalny is not fortified. the only fort in
the vicinity being one halfway be-
tween Talienwan and Kinchau. Aft
er the destruction of the submarine
mines at Talienwan the japanese in
tend to land additional troops there and
begin an attack on Port Arthur. A
Japanese officer informed the CORE
spondent Of the Associated Press tha.
the Japanese are ready to lose 1000
men in the attack.
