trict Is Gone Over.
Reports From all Over the Thirteer.
tn Say Everything is Lined up
for Taft.

Hearing that Joseph B. Foraker
was making great strides toward
supremacy in Marion county and
throughout the Thirteenth Congress
sional district and that the Foraker
boss was having things too much
his own way, Grant e. Mouser
left Washington hurriedly Tuesday
morning, reaching here last night
with the purpose of looking after
the interests of Wiiliam II. Taft.
After the congressman arrived
here there was a meeting of a
large number of prominent repub-
licans held at Mr.. Mouser's office.
Wednesday morning there was an
other meeting at which no less
than fifty of the congressman Is
staunchest supporters were present.
The situation in Marion county and
Din the other counties in the district
was thoroughly canvassed. The
long distance telephone was worked
overtime in reaching parts of the
district that had not been heard
from. And according to all re-
ports the congressman learned that
everywhere in the district nevery-
body is for Taft
Interviewed by the Mirror today
Mr.. Mouser stated that he ha1 re.
turned from Washington to look
after business interests and that
he would return within two or
three days. He did not admit that
he came to Ohio especially to look
after Taft's interests but that
while here he naturally would
canvass the situation as fully as
possible. a. -
The story is being told that the
Foraker boss in the county sent
word to Mr.. Mouser that II he would
pledge himself to vote for Foraker at
the Chicago convention he might 60
as a delegate, but If not, he (the boss)
woulG 20 and MoTser could read the
press reports OF the nomination Of
a president. Then, according to the
story, which could not be verified,
NIouser packed his grips, kissed
Uncle Joe" good bye and skipped
,Ohioward.
"When | left Washington thought
that Marion county and in fact, the
whole district, was solid for For

heard sad Mr.. Mouser. But

Iare two for Taft to one for Foraker

And since he has "canvased the
situation" the congressman evidently
thinks that he may be able to go to
THE convention without bowling to

Foraker.
Before he leaves for Washington.

MRS.: MCCORMICK
WINS 1000 MILE
RACE FOR STEAMER
Fast Tug at Jersey City Awaits
Her Arrival from
Chicago.

HOBOKEN, June 1S.-Mrs. Robert
s.. Mccormick, wife of the former
American ambassador to France. was
the victor by minutes today in a 1000
mile race against time. AS a result
she was enabled to keep an engage
ment to sail for Europe on the steam
ship Kaiserin Auguste Victoria.
Mrs. Mccormick had engaged pas
sage on the big steamer some time
q but her departure from Chicago
was delayed until the last moment,
when it was found that there would
be a margin of scarcely a quarter of
an hour between the arrival of her
train at Jersey City and the departure
of the steamer from Hoboken, some
distance up the river. Mrs.
mick wired ahead a request that the
steamer be held to await her arrival.
She was informed hat this could not
be done. as the mail-carrying contracts
made prompt sailing mandatory. she
was informed, however, that a FAST
tug would be in waiting for her at
Jersey City and that she and her bag
gage would be taken on board I'M
mediately upon arrival of the train,
and she would be transferred to the
ship in the bay, II possible. The train
came in promptly on time, and a few
minutes later Mrs. Mccormick was on
the special tug bound up the river for
Hoboken.
