THE IOWA CONVENTION
Forecast assures 4IIsOn and Taft
Of Endorsement.

Des Moines. Iowa. March lin to- morrow s
state convention it seems sure that the Repub
icans OF Iowa will declare in favor of a revision
of the tariff, indorse Senator William B. Alli-
son in the strongest terms and elect four dele
gates-at- large to the Republican National Con-
venton. who viii be instructed for Taft.
The followers of Senator Allison have so
strong lead that il is certain unless something
unexpected transpires they will dominate the
convention from its opening to its close. The
faction led by Governor Cummins admit that
they have the smaller number of votes. but
consider it possible that circumstances may
give them greater strength before the conven-
ton sdjourns. Their chief nope in this direction
is rested upon the tariff plank of the platform.
They assert that the Allison men are stand
patters" and that If they indorse Taft and in
struct delegates to vote for him in the national
convention they must of necessity take the
attitude that Governor Cummns assumed long
ago. when he declared in favor of a revision of
the tariff. The Allison men,. O.. the contrary.
declare that there more revisionists among
them than of "stand-patters," and say that they
can, with entire consistency come out in favor
of revision of the Dingley law.
Il shall urge the progressives in the conven-
tion to insist upon the adoption of the Ohio
tariff plank said Governor Cummins tonight
The progressives are for Taft and will insist
on genuine instructions of the Iowa delegation
for him for President. And they will stand
for his platform. as well for his nomination,
being loyal to both propositions
Aside from this one possibility of a fight, the
convention promises TO be remarkably peaceful.
The slate for the four delegates a-large consists
of John T. Adams, of Dubuque: Lafayette
Young OF Des Moines; George D. Perkins. of
Sioux City, and ]. r. Lane of Davenport There
has been some talk of a submission of :he name
of Governor Cummins to the convention as a
ernor declared to-day that he had never con-
sidered such q thing, and his name will not be
mentioned.
Both the Hughes and Taft campaign managers
have representatives the ground watching
the trend of the convention. A. B. Humphrey,
of New York, secretary of the Hughes League
of America, is here, but declares that he has
not the slightest intention of taking any action
looking toward interference with the programme
of the Taft managers. He is here merely as an
onlooker, he asserts, but in case of a split in
the convention over the tariff question he will
be prepared to gather in such comfort for the
Hughes boom as may be possible.
The Taft interests are represented by Wade H.
Ellis the Attorney General of Ohio and the
man who wrote the Ohio platform. He talked
several times during the day with the Allison
leaders and also visited Governor Cummins at
his HEADQUARTERS AS both the Cumnlns and
Allison factions for Taft his way has been
made fairly smooth.

THE PREMIER SINKING.
Queen and Empress Dozcager Call
at SIR Henry's Home.

London. March 1.-THE strength of Sir Henry
Campbell Bannerman, the British Premier, Is
ebbing daily. and his friends take the gravest
view of the dropscal symptoms which have
peared in his feet and the lower part of his
legs. The medical bulletin issued to-day says
that the Premers strength not well main
tanned yesterday. but that he had good night
and takes his nourishment well.
The general anxiety is shown by the constant
stream of inquirers at the Premers house in
Downing street. The fact that Queen Alex
andra and the Empress Dowager of Russia
called this afternoon at his residence shows
that the illness of the patient is more critical
than the bulletins Indicate Until to-day the
Queen had sent an equerry to inquire concern
ing Sir Henry's condition.
Late tonight the condition of the Premier
was unchanged but on account of disqu1etlng
symptoms, the physician decided to remain IN
attendance throughout the night.
There was much conjecture in the lobbies of
Parliament this evening with regard to the
coming Cabinet changes. 1t is understood, with
the accession of II. II. Asquith TO the Pre-
miership, there Will be a reconstruction, the
Marquis of Rpon and Sir Henry Fowler retir-
ing on account OF advanced age, and Winston
Spencer Churchill, Under Secretary for the Colo
nies, and Sir Walter Runcman, Financial Sec
retary to the Treasury. being promoted to
Cabinet rank.
1t is still undecided how the portfolios will be
redistricted, much depending whether Mr..
Asquith elects to retain the Chancelorshp oe
the Exchequer until he has piloted his old age
pension scheme through Parliament. The in
come tax collections already point to bigger
surplus than Mr.. AsQuith had anticipated IN
the last budget estimates. This surplus it is
thought will be marked for pensions.
