TAFT LOSES The BAY STATE
Result Of Primaries Shows Decisive
Victory for Opposition.
Out of Twenty-eiGht Delegates Se-
Convention Uninstructed.
.cial to The Washington Hsrald.

Special to Tie Washington Herald.
Boston. Mass. April l-Massachusetts
Republicans. according to the latest re-
turns, have declared emphaticaIly at the
primary Of delegates 10 the Congressional
district conventions against instructions
for any one aspirant for the Presidential
nomination.
It now appears certain that out OF twen-
ty-eight district delegates at least twerty-
four will be sent to the Chicago conven-
tiOn neither pledged nor instructed for
any candidate.
In other words. in every district where
no contest was made, il was because
Gen. Champiin. the leader Of the non
instruction forces. was satisfied with the
personnel Of the proposed delegates. In
every district where there was a con-
test, the opponents to instructions won.
except in the Sixth. Congressman Gard
ner's district. where two delegates friend
ly for Taft viii be chosen.
The fight against Instructions was car
ried in the three western districts Of the
State. In the fourth district, one of the
winning candidates. Coulton. SAYS that he
personally favOrs Taft but will not be
i4NuStu- me Ollet SucCeSSIul CanQlQate
Col Doty, is chairman Of the state com
mittee. and for that reason has main
tained consistently an attitude against
committal 10 any candidate. In the Fifth.
Butler Ames' district. there was no con-
test, and other delegates VIII be unin-
structed. Both the delegates from the
Sixth, Congressman Gardner's, 3resum-
ably will be instructed for Taft. In the
Seventh, represented by Congressman
Roberts, which includes the home of Sen
ator Lodge, the delegates viii be unin-
structed In the Eighth district. which
includes Cambridge. certain collegiate
influences have been exerted for Taft.
In the Fourteenth district the Taft
forces made a determined fight 20 beat
for delegate William NJ. Butler, an ad-
herent of Senator Crane. bur Butler car
ried every ward but ore Of New Bedford
and his colleague viii also be free from
Instructions.
The present indications are that the
four elegates-at-large will be Senators
Lodge and Crane and ex-Govs. Bates and
Long. although Il may yet be for the
State convention TO determine whether
ex-Councillor Bigney. Taft advocate
shall be chosen in place OF Long
The net result Of the contest is a de-
cisive victory against resolutions of IN
Istruction-a result eminently satisfactory
to the campaign headed by Chairman
Chsmplin.
