May Take Republican Conventions Creden.
tiais Committee Four Days to Hear Them.
CHICAGO, May 3l.-A bumper crop of
contests has been harvested by the Repub-
lican national committees. the officials OF
which, after searching their memories,
assert that the convention next month will
break all records for the number Of seats in
dispute
When Secretary Dover checked up the
credentials last night and made up his
unofficial lists he discovered that more than
2s per cent. of the osO seats are debatable
One hundred and four contests have been
filed that involve ?2S delegates.
Eleven States have filed contests over
delegates at large. involving forty-four
seats: ninety districts have also filed two
sets Of credentials, bringing 1SO more seats
half the delegation from the Twenty first
district of Pennsylvania have contributed
five more, making the total 200.
The list tabulated last night is not oon->
sidered complete. the chances being that
mail trains that have been belated by the
floods and washouts may bring In one or two
more contests within the next day or two.
So long as they were placed In the mails
before midnight Thursday they will be
received and filed for consideration by the
national committee when it meets next
week. The officials, however, believe that
no additional contests are on the wing and
that the unofficial list issued last night
contains the disputed seats complete
Delegates at large, each involving four
delegates; are contested as follows; Ala
bama, Florida. Georgia. Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi, North Carolina. Oklahoma. South
Carolina. Tennessee. Texas. Virginia. The
following district delegations are con-
tested. each involving two delega ates:, Ala

According to Secretary Dover and Chair
man New the number OF contests Is so great
that the credentials committee may con-
surne four days in hearings. which may
make the convention last i've days and
perhaps longer.
But the credentials committee will have
as early start as possible. II will get
down TO business June 10. soon after tho
gathering has effected its temporary or
ganization. and it may be ready to report
