held with Senator Foraker here to-day, his lieu
tenants and those of Senator Dick in this sec
ton will unite in attempt to crush the Taft
boom in Ohio
While Mr.. Foraker would make no comment
on the political situation. it was learned from
some of his trends that the two Ohio Senators
have formed a coalition against the Secretary
of War. AS a step in this direction plans were
laid to obtain an unpedged delegation from
Cuyahoga County to the state convention. and
as far as possible to carry out the same idea In
the other counties of the state
The Foraker interests. by so doing, believe
they swing the state convention in favor
of the senior Senator. They believe that in most
instances they can split the delegations and
swing majority into line for Mr. Foraker
1t learned to-day that the Foraker men
are in favor of holding two state conventions,
one to select the four delegates-at- large from
Ohio TO the national convention. and the other
to nominate state officers. The story was cir
culated that the State Central Committee would
decide in favor of this plan Senator Foraker
left Cleveland for Cincinnati tonight.

The state game warden OF Missouri

andcompanies to break the law which
he is sworn to enforce"
This is the substance ofwhat Frank

to the house committee on fish and
game Friday afternoon. Despite the
fact shat there have been whispered
charges against Rodes during the
pastiew days, this open charge Great
ed q profound sensation.
Rodes' accounts With the stats
auditor are playing q large part In
the charges against him. One Item,

on clerical hire. Rodes protested
but the auditor refused to pay tn,

Shortly afterwards, Rodes went to

there were objections, but the audi
