DOMINATION
TO- DAY
POSSIBLE THAT TAFT MAY BE
NAMED BEFORE ADJOURN
hENT.

Chicago, ILL.,. June lS.-This Is
the day OF days in Chicago. IL the
present plans OF the leaders of the
Republican convention do not slip
trolley before the final adjourn
ment for the day is taken. the plat
form will have been adopted and
the candidate for president will
have been named. At yesterdays
session the way was cleared for
great work and the only thing
which stands in the way OF final al
journment is protracted struggle
over the platform or deadlock
over the vice president. Ths form
er is possibility. the latter a very
remote contingency. The Roose-
welt demonstration yesterday is
still very strongly discussed. The
plan OF the Allies to stampede the
convention so that Roosevelt would
either b. e'etted. or what would
be- more to their tastes. draw
enough votes from the secretary OF
war TO prevent his selection on the
trst ballot. The weight OF un-
biased opinion OF men who observed
the demonstration closely is that
there will be no stampede, though
1t is still possible that the attempt
will be made.

Injunction Platform Adopted.

Chicago, ILL.,, June 1S.-The fol-
lowing is the injunction plank
adopted by the subcommittee OF
the resolutions committee to take
the place OF the plank set out in
the administration platform: "In
court procedure, the Republican
party will uphold at all times the
authority and integrity of the
courts, state and federal. and will
ever insist that their powers to en-
force their process and to protect
life, liberty and property shall be
preserved inviolate. We believe.
however, rules of procedure in fed
eral courts with respect to the is
suance OF the writ of Injunction
should be more accurately defined
by statute and that no Injunction
or temporary restraining order
should be issued without notice. ex-
cept when irTeparable injury would
result from delay, in which case n
speedy hearing thereafter should
be granted" This plank was vir-
tually adopted by the full commit
tee by a vote OF 80 to 16 at 2:1O
this morning. II was a test vote
on motion made by Mr.. McCarter
OF New Jersey. to reject the entire
anti-injunction plank, the compro-
mise winning by the vote indicated.

THE VICE.
PRESIDENCY
FAIRBANKS OR CUMNiINS LEAD
ING FOR SECOND PLACE ON
TICKET.

Chieago. June lS.-The promul-
cation uf letter from Vics Pres.
ident Fairbanks reiterating his "ir
revocable" determination not 10
again be a candidate for tho office
he now holds. was the most i'm
portant development of yesterday In
connection with the vice president
ial nomination. The letter was ad-
dress to MIR. Fairbanks manager.
Joseph B. Keating, and similar
letter was addressed by the vice
president TO Senator Hemenway.
lafayette Young. delegate at
large from Iowa. received tc'e-
gram from Secretary Loeb which
stated that President Roosevelt had
not expressed n desire to sca Gov.
.Cummins' name on the ticket. or
that OF any other particular per-
son. Following is the text of Mr.
Loeb's message:
The president has not expressed
any opinion for or against any can
didate for the vice presidency. and
VIII no more express an opinion
against Gov. Cummins than he
would against Senator Dollivcr.
Mr.. Young. who has heretofore
been classad among the opponents
OF Gov. Cummins. said last night
that he would do nothing to pre-
vent the latter's nomination.
The developments of the day did
not materially alter the vice presI-
Dental situation, and the opinion Is
the nomination will go either to
Vice President Fairbanks or to
GOV. Cummins.
The failure by the New York
caucus on the vice presidential sit
uation is regarded as practically
Eliminating that state from the con
tegt.
New York is in a position whcrr
II her delegation could get together
on the proposition they might have
named the candidate but they could
not get together.
II was said last night that n tela-
gram to Edward Glines. who is re-
garded as Gov. Guilds personal rep
resentative in the Massachusetts
delegation. expressed the govern
or's intention to stand by his vice
presidential boom until the last gun
was fired.
The lines having been drawn
substantially between east and
west in the situation, and New York
being practically out OF IT. It be
come an interesting question whcth-
er the east could unite upon any
man who could rally also support
from west and south In this con
ncctlon the names of Gov. Guild and
cx-Gov. Murphy, OF New Jersey.
were most frequently mentioned
The steady tendency OF the day,
however, was plainly toward the Sc
lection Of a western man and the
names in the fore front are those
Of Fairbanks OF Indiana and Cum
Minis OF Iowa with Fairbanks appar-
emily In the lead.

down with the wreckage and was ser

casualties. The bridge was being re

thought to have been in a measure re
sponsible for the accident.
