LILLEY'S LEAD
STILL INCREASES
Carries Middletown, Stratford
and Trumbull Easily-Now
Claims He Has 312
Delegates.
JUDS0N DECLARES STAND
VIII Cast Complimentary Vote for
Woodruff--IIas Never Said
He, Would Nominate
JUDS0N DECLARES STAND

BY the few caucuses held last night
throughout the state Congressman
George H. Lllley materially increased
his lead In the race for the guberna-
torial nomination on the republican
ticket, and apparently the only thing
which can prevent his nomination In
the state convention Is stampede, a
thing almost unknown in the history
Of Connecticut
One fallacy which the people Of the
state have been laboring under for
some time was overthrown last night
when Stiles Judson NJ Stratford was
chosen a delegate TO the state conven-
tion and said that after casting a COM
plimentary vote for Governor Wood
run he would voc for Mr. Lllley for
the nomination. For some weeks past
Il has been published throughout the
state that stiles Judson would nomi-
nate Mr.. Lake In the convention. Last
night he said that he never had been
for Mr. Lake for governor In prefer
ence to Mr.. Lllley. The other dele
gate from Stratford is Henry p,
Stagg. also Lilley man.
II was generally expected that there
would be a lively caucus in Middle
town where the younger men were
against Mr.. Lilley. but the older men
got out larger crowd and won hands
down. When the ballots were counted
n n Ia al tA
posed, The following I.illey men were
elected: r. C. Smith, W. w. Wilcox, G.
p. Carlson and c. NJ Sauer.
At Trumbull there was no contest,
two Lilley men being chosen, Charles
Cope and Arthur E. Plumb.
These caucuses give Lilley eight
more delegates and he now claims 3l2
while 291 are all that are necessary to
get the nomination An impartial
newspaper canvas gives MIR. Lilley $40
and the Lake forces grant that Mr.
Lilley has 242.
Everything now looks very rosy
|. for Mr1 Billey to get the nomination
but his managers are apparently reck.
oning without the people who were
| defeated In the caucuses and who dc
not approve of the machine methods
which give candidate the nomination
! years in advance. Following is n lot.
ter along those general lines from
New Hartford to a member of the
