Galesburg, ILL.,, April 11.-Every eff
fort to procure the passage of a Taft
resolution by the republican conyen-
tion of the Fifteenth congressional dis
trict here yesterday failed, although
Taft sentiment was predominant in
every delegation.
Only the desire to show courtesy to

phatic expression. State Senator Bail

candidacy were early on the scene
and let be known that all they want

Cannon and then go to Taft.

AS soon as the convention organized

floor and read strong resolution en-

New York, April 11.-Judge Warren
w. Foster, in the general sessions
court, suspended sentence yesterday
on Michael Briefer,. photographer at
one time, resident of Decatur, ILL.,,
who pleaded guilty recently to bigamy.
The case had some notoriety because
of the criticism directed against the
court for suggesting, at the time Brief
er was arraigned for pleading, that if
he would furnish two bonds for the
support ofthree children by two wives
that he would take that into consider
aticn in imposing sentence. 1t was de
clared in some quarters that such q
disposition of the case tended to pul
a premium on bigamy.
CRITICISM Undeserved, Says Cour:.
In suspending sentence Judge Eos
ter said that any criticism in the mat
ter was unwarranted.
Louis Lowenstein, the defendant
counsel, appeared in court with tw,
bonds subscribed to by Edward ]

said Judge Foster.
Biames the Newspapers.
This case acquired some general
notoriety, as undeseryed as unexpect-
ed. due to the zeal and sagacity of our
press. The district attorney and /
both agree that it presents features
which bring it squarely and fairly un-
der the parole probation law.
1T is only fair that this man should
support his children, and this is a
practical, quick and common sense
way to get support for the children"
Turning to the prisoner, the judge
said we agree that you are guilty
lof bigamy, which is against public pol

Resolutions.

New York, April 1.-THE Assem-.
bling of the republican state conven-
ton at Carnegie hall today was at
tended with great interest as the pre-
liminary program outlined by the state
committee contemplated the adoption
of resolutions strongly commencing the
administration of Roosevelt and the
Estate administration of Governor
Hughes and the instruction of the four
delegates at large to use every honor
able means to bring about the nomina-
tion of Governor Hughes for the pres
idency.
Issues Wholly National.
] The platform. as tentatively drawn,
deals almost wholly with national af-
| fairs and declares for revision of the
tariff to meet existing economic con-
| ditions.
| Decide to Oppose Hughes.
Westchester county delegates held a
caucus early today and unanimously
| decided to oppose the endorsement of
| Hughes
| The delegates were late in reaching
the hall, and when the time for the
calling to order was reached, there
were only 200 in their seats Through
ont the hall had been placed pamph
lets captioned Taft" and giving a
summary of the life of Taft. The ar.
rival of the political leaders was mark
led by cheers and applause
Called to Order.
The convention was called to order
by the chairman. NJ. Linn Bruce was
made temporary chairman, and ad.
dressed the assemblage.
At the conclusion of Bruce's speech
} the temporary secretaries were made
permanent and resolutions providing
for the appointment of committees
\ were adopted, and the convention took
a recess to, $3.50.
Immediately after adjournment the
) committee on permanent organization
decided to report to Congressman

Reported to Have Threatened.
/ 1t is reported by certain members
that President Roosevelt has made a
direct threat that he will veto this
measure when it comes to him if his
battleship plan is not enacted The
news of this threat was received at
the capitol with smiles, for if there
is any measure to come before con-
gress which will be passed over the
presidents veto with the greatest
susto, it will be the omnibus public
buildings bill. The pork in that
measure, while not lavish as regards
any particular locality, is widely scat
tered, and there is scarcely a con-
gressman whom it does not deeply af-
feet. The resulf6f the news from the
White house, therefore, has had the
effect of stiffening the nerve of those
who cannot see the, beauty of an ex-
tensive naval establishment rather
than driving them to its support.

best authority, that President Roose.

dent Roosevelt not only intends ad-
dressing special message to con-
gress requesting an appropriation for
four battleships instead of two. but
that ha also intends to bring the
strongest kind of pressure to bear
upon representatives to secure their
support of an amendment to the bill
to that effect.
The naval bill as reported and taken
up yesterday provides for two new
battleships and 10 submarines. Pres
ident Roosevelt has no interest in
submarines, but he is Jealous ovel

Of sea lighters. Sentiment in the
mouse, as whole, is decidedly not il
favor of an increased battseship ap

Gossip as to wire PuIIing.
There is lively gossip going abou
as to wire pulling INDUCED in by tn
president in behalf of the four battle
