new YORK HEARD RUMORS
CONVENTION SURPRISES
Reports That Inspected Might Hap
pen in Republican Nominating
Convention Stimulated Interest and
Attendance.

New York, June S.-(Special Cor
respondence of The Republication
the eve of the republican national
convention, there is a strong under
current of feeling here that unex-
pected and possibly sensational de-
velOpments will occur next week at
Chicago. All sorts of stories are
afloat. the truth of which it is i'm
possible to determine. One rumor
that will not down is that the thick
and-thin advocates of Roosevelt's
denomination have laid careful plans
which they are prepared to spring
at the psychological moment to force
the president to head the party tick
ct once more. According to this re-
port, which is given with great de-
tail, the president knows of this
scheme and has commissioned Sena-
tor Lodge and one or two other
close friends to act for him when
the emergency arises, but what their
instrupctions are nobody seems able
to tell. Another story is that in
spite of his refusal to consider the
vice presidential nomination, Cover
nor Hughes is TO be forced by the
influence of New York state poll
ticians to accept second place on
the ticket with Taft as the only
means of preventing his renomina-
ton for governor, which the ma
chine leaders here are anxious to
forestall at any cost. There are
whispers, too, that the unusual ac-
tivity that has suddenly broken out
among candidates for the vice-pres-
idential nomination, a dozen or more
of r4hn inf no fiald
within the past few weeks is due
to the unsatisfactory physical con-
dition of Secretary Taft and the
possibility that the strain of life in
the White House will make anoth-
er succession necessary before four
years are up. The friends of the
war secretary ridicule this idea and
point to the ease with which he has
carried a heavy load of work for
the past eight years in proof of
their assertions. While it is diff
cut to substantiate any of the many
stories that have been in circula-
ton here since congress adjourned,
the fact remains that among the
delegates and politicians generally
there is a feeling that some sudden
explosion or startling turn of af-
falrS is likely to change the appar-
emily cut and dried plans of the
convention, and consequently it
seems likely that the attendance in
Chicago will be the largest of any
political gathering in the history
of the country.
The most talked about woman in
America is Hetty Green, who re-
Gently startled New York by NOV
ing from her Hoboken flat to one
of the city's most fashionable no
tells, giving dinners off gold plate,
consulting a beauty specialist. and
otherwise indicating an intention of
casting her line in the fashionable
fish-pond This statement as to the
amount of comment devoted to the
lady sometimes referred to as "the
female Russell Sage" is no mere
guess based on the hubbub her re-
cent actions have created. 1t is an
estimate backed by cold figures and
comes from the man who is en-
gagged in supplying press clippings

ELECTION DAY 
 IN CORDOVA
lFrom Cordova Alaskan1

tFrom Cordoya AlaskanD
 The election on Tuesday passed off very quietly in Cordova. there being Yer little drunkenness and no fighting. as is SO often the ease on election day among meu who work on railroads The boys working on the c. l. X N. w. are largely miners who have been in Alaska for several years and they are remarkably law-abiding lot of fellows They have come hare from frcadwell, Nome, Valdez, FairbanKs. Juneau. Skagway, Seward. Katalla and other places to work on the road merely because this is about the only live camp in Alaska this season.
 There are seventeen hundred men working on the railroad and 100 on the townslte of these men, about one-half are voters. being Alaskans who have been in Cordova for the last thirty days
 Of the first loo men who voted, 16 were from Fairbanks. lG from Skag- way. 12 from Juneau. 12 from Seward 10 from Katalla. 13 from Valdez. 4 from Nome and r scattering
 The total vote of 991 would indicate that less than half of the men in the precinct are voters. \ large number were barred by the provision of the law requiring 30 days residence in the precinct. Many old Alaskans who have resided in the territory for ten years could not vote because they had arrived here within the lastithirty days Had it not been for the provision of me law requiring a residence in the pre- .cinct for thirty days. the vote in Cor dova would have gone far above the one thousand mark.
 The Cordova people cast aside their politics, and in many instances their personal choice in their voting here on election day and supported Mir. Cor son. because he was the nominee of the party in national power. hoping that he might be able to secure more legislation for Alaska. especially leg lslati"R in favor of the development of the coal lands. the chief resource of the coming city of Cordova.
 The young city has shown the prop CT spirit in this her first step. Others may cry. "The railroad has Cordova |" but We have a sweeter cry than that "Cordoya has the railroad" There's the rub-with the other fellow.
