a CONTESTS HAVE SEEN SET
TIED BY THE REPUBLIcAN
NATIONAL COMMITTEES.
THE TENS CASES ARE CONSOLIDATED
Sixty Contest Cases Yet TO Be Heard
All From the southland-ME Taft
VIII Get the Votes Of the Winners
In ccntests-some Bitter Feeling
Engendered. =

Chicago, June 11.--After working
for four days, and with five additions
days yet to come before the meeting
Of the convention. the Republican ma
tional committee adjourned late Tues
day with two-flfths OF its contests de
cided. This Is based on the actual
number of contests filed, go having
yet to be heard, while Al have beer
settled. It is probable, however, thai
the committee has finished about one
half Of the total amount of work i'm
posed on 1t by the numerous contest
ing delegations from the southern
states. There are in Texas contests
on delegates-at-large and each of the
16 districts. These will be consoli-
dated, reducing the aggregate number
of cases yet to be heard to Al. There
is possibility also that other con.
solicitations may be made In Virginia
and other states.
The committee Tuesday decided 16
contests affecting SO delegates. OF
these 81 are Taft men and the re-
naming nine, all Of whom are "black
and tans," from Louisiana, have ten
tatively agreed that they will cast
their votes for Taft. There is,. how
ever, no binding agreement to that
effect.
The contests decided Tuesday com.
prised the delegates-at-large In Louisi.
ana and Mississippi, seven districts in
Louisiana, six districts in Mississippi
and one in Missouri. The Louisiana
contest which was the most important
OF the day, resulted in a split dele
cation, the committee deciding on a
division of 20 to 80 to seat both the
Lilly White" or Taft delegation, and
the black and tans" with half vote
for each The agreement as reached
between the Taft and anti-Taft ele-
ments on the committee and as later
carried into effect by that body, was
highly displeasing to the Lilly Whites"
headed by ex-GOv. Wumoth. The
governor declared with great emphasis
that he would not accept the compro-
mise, but would carry the fight before
the credentials committee and If de-
feated there he would go home. Other
members of the Lilly White" faction
were not SO emphatic in their state
ments. and the Taft managers are
hopeful that they can bring them to
see the wisdom of Tuesdays action
before the national convention is
called to order.
