and threw one OF his arms about it's
neck, hoping In this manner
to halt 1t. The horse. while the boy
was in this position, suddenly turned
and unseated him from the horse he
was riding. and the boy found him
self hanging onto the fleeing animal
with his arm about its neck. He

his feet in the stirup and mounting
the saddle and then the horse started

CHICAGO, June 15.-Pressure for
platform modification increased today
to such an extent that the Taft forces
plainly see a contest in the resolu-
tions committee which promises to
be both tenacious and prolonged.
This pressure has so far only increas-
ed the determination of those direct
ing the Taft movement to assume
more unyielding attitude.
'If we are to have Taft for the
candidate we are going to have
Taft platform, is the ultimatum.
This platform, as is well known,
has been written. 1t is in the Gus
tody of Wade Ellis, attorney gener-
al of Ohio, who has taken up his
headquarters for the convention at
the Auditorium Annex. Every plank
of this platform is declared to have
received the most detailed and
weighty attention and the prediction
is made that every plank will remain
in the document and in the language
| in which 1t is now expressed, There
is some possible change in view.
However stern may be the declara-
| tion against modification, there Is
not the slightest disposition to refuse
| to listen to thoet Who want reyis' ~
and this has loen the task of NJ
Ellis throughout the day. Incl
dentally it moy be stated that 10th
Presiden. Roosevelt aBG Mr Taft
have been kept ,nlo'med mIhuteiy as
to the developments.
The platform contains an express
sion of the belief that a more liberia
rule should be adopted by the courts

Is conservatively estimated that be-

attendance. The two teams brought
with them the bands from their home
towns. and the services OF the Occur
d'Alene band had been secured for
the occasion, and after rendering a
number OF selections on the streets
prior to the calling of the game. the
bands accompanied the teams to the
ball grounds.
The playing was loose. but there
was much vim and spice and interest

DEFEAT TAFT.
Movement to Launch Roosevelt Boom
For That Purpose.

TUT mat EuFEoSe.
CHICAGO, June 15.-A small
meeting, which, Its participants de-
clare, will be followed by a much
larger gathering. was held Saturday
night for the purpose of arranging a
plan to present the name of Presi-
dent Roosevelt as a candidate for
the presidency. Among those present
at the meeting were ex-Representa-
tive Thomas W. Phillips, a delegate
from the Twenty-fourth Pennsylvan-
la district, and G. T. Teter, a dele
gate at large, and George w. Curtin,
delegate from the Fourth district
of West Virginia.
1t was stated that on the arrival
today of the Georgia and West Vir-
ginia delegations, complete program
will be arranged. One of the Georgia
delegates, it is said, will bring with
him a petition bearing between CO.,
900 and 10000 signatures from men
in the south urging that President
Roosevelt accept a second elective
term.
The entire move is said by those
most actively participating to be ia
vored by the allies" who believe
that no nomination will be made on
the first ballot. Delegates Teter
and Curtin have been instructed for
Taft, but both of them have frequent
ly expressed the intention. which they
reiterated Saturday night, of boiling
their instructions.
The Roosevelt boomers believe that
some one prominent in the conven-
tion-and they have picked Senator
Lodge as the man-has letter from
President Roosevelt designed to
meet the exact situation they are
planning to bring about. They de.
clared that they realized that
the reading of this letter might be
prevented, although just as to how
this is to be done they were not ex
actly clear.
