nHICAGO June 20.-The nomination
II of Senator Charles " Fairbanks
FOR vice president was regarded
as settled tonight when New York de-
cided TO east her seventy-eight votes
FOR him. While i has seemed a fore
gone conclusion for some time that the
Indiana senator would bee Mr.. Roose-

dates and start a stampede of delegates
for some other man. These attempts
failed almost i'm their inception. and 1t
early became apparent that Fairbanks
was the choice of most of the delega-
tious. New Yorks action was more
formal than that of other states and
practically settled all doubt even
among those who were opposed 10 the
