The nomination contest is not settled,
ously thinking whether, if nominated,
Gle can win.
In delegate totals no candidate has
made very great progress during the
last six days. None the less the events
of the week have been very important,
as the Washington politicians view
them. The Hughes boom is now rep
resented with column, four instructed
delegates having been chosen from two
New York Congressional districts. The
Cannon boom gained fourteen in 1lli-
nois, but lost two in that state to Secre-
tary Taft and two more were chosen In
the same without hard and fast Cannon
instructions. The Fairbanks boom
gained the "big four in Indiana and
the Taft boom gained but four, two
being in what had been conceded as
Cannon territory in Illinois and two in
West Virginia.
1t is very apparent that the. allies
have not been cheered by the week IS
results. With Secretary Taft holding
but 154 out of the 800 delegates elected
to date, he is still long way from the
nomination. Nevertheless, the opinion
is growing among those who have sup
ported other candidates that he is going
to win. There are. still many skeptics
around the Capitol. At the same time
there are evidences that the managers
of other candidates are gradually ''let-
ting go.''
The Cannon workers have to admit
that the Taft sentiment is very strong
in Northern Illinois. The La Toilette
men concede that bunch of the Wis
consin delegates are pretty certain to
be for the Secretary of War, after the
first ballot The Knox men concede in
private that Pennsylvania viii furnish
the Secretary some votes just as early
in the convention as they possibly can.
The primaries in New York strengthen
ed the hand of County Leader Parsons
and thereby increased the prospects

Congressional districts win desert the

Therefore, lean as their actual gains
in delegates have been for the week,
the Taft managers are again in high
feather. They predict his nomination
on the first ballot with more confidence
than ever and are pressing their cam
paign with determination. The only
actual setback they received was In the
Porto Rican convention last Sunday.
The two delegates from that territory
will go to the convention without in
struetions, which is said to be due to
the efforts of Representative Sweet,
formerly attorney general of the island.
Those delegates have been counted for
the Secretary. His column now com

(Mail Special to the Advsrtiser.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 5.-Just
at present the allies are all twanging
their harps furiously to the tune He
can not VIM The strains of this
aged and ear soothing selection are
reyerberating through the Capitol.
Pick up the receiver to long distance
telephone, the other end of which is
in New York and one can catch frag-
mentary sounds of the same notes on
the furiously twanging harps of the
Metropolis Some Ohio Republican
Congressman are humming the same
time, as they write their Congressional

of them, Republican Representatives
Mouser. of the old Thirteenth Ohio, and
Bannon of the Buckeye River counties

tune humming, refusing the-renomina
tion-letter act. They say they can not
get the votes vhe4 people are singing
that way.
And the political harps are tuning
up in other Republican music loving
centers. There is probably some
method about it. Perhaps it will i'm
press the country; perhaps it won t.
Perhaps the headline of the music is
true; perhaps it isn't.

favorite, and, to date, the far-and-away
leader in the Republican nomination
racea They have touched their harps
gently to the same refrain occasionally
heretofore. Now they are playing with
full force. They propose before the
Chicago convention meets to have that
tune associated in the minds of the vot-
ing masses with the candidacy of said
William Howard Taft. Then with the
seeds of encouragement planted in the
hearts of 1000 delegates and with dis
may upon the faces of the hundreds of
thousands of office holders, hankering
for more of the feshpots, how these
harpists would harp on some new tune!
How they would harp for Cannon, or
for Fairbanks, or for Hughes or even
for George B. Cortelyou, whom the
President some months ago dr6mmed
out of the camp of candidates! They
would harp the most joyous tune in
their repertoire, with the convention
plunging off after new favorite and
leaving William Howard Taft to con-
tinue in his office of Secretary of War
for about six months more and then to
retire to private life, unless the present
Republican President, by some good
luck, could get him upon the Supreme

The Grand Jury which was ordered
by Gov. Hughes in conjunction with
special trial term uf the Supreme Court
at Flushing to begin on September Il
met and was sworn yesterday by. JUS
tice Garretson. This Grand Jury will have
to consider among other things evidence
in the case of the murder Of William +.
4 Annis. for which the Hains brothers now
stand charged.
In his instructions Justice Garretson
made no mention of the Hams case. He
said that there were eighty-six cases
of felony to be brought to the attention
of the jurors and that District Attorney
Darrin would present them. Justice
Garretson advised the Grand Jury not to
spend its deliberations in investigating G
the conduct of public officers because OF
the press of criminal charges that occu-
pied the docket.
Mr.. Darrin said yesterday that since
there were five homicide cases to be pre-
sented to the special Grand Jury before he
submits the evidence in the Annis muir
der he had not yet summoned any wit
nesses in that case. He will do so as soon
as the regular order OF rotation shall
bring the Hains case up.

foreman of the Grand Jury yesterday,
after which it proceeded TO the Queens

INSTRUMENTATION
HOWARD GOULDS WIFE SAYS
$4,000 rs FAR TOO LITTLE.

Frank Gould Moves That the Court Direct
His Wife 10 Mako Her Charges
Against Him Mere Definite and Ger.
tain-HearIngs 60 Over TO October.
The calendar in Part l., Special Term,
Of the Supreme Court, Justice Giegerich
presiding. had on the list No. So. -Gould
vs.. Gould, motion for alimony,' and No,
112. Gould VS.. Gould, motion 10 compel"
Hearings on both motions were adjourned,
the first to October and the second to
October 2.
The first motion referred to an applica-
ton to the court by Mrs. Howard Gould,
who was kathrine Clemmons, to have
her husband compelled to allo her
10000 a month. or Sl2O, 900 a year, in
stead Of the pittance of 900 a year
which he has been paying her since they
separated two years ago.
The second motion was by Frank
Gould, whose divorce troubles have al
ready attracted the attention OF the
District Attorneys office and the Grand
Jury. He wants the Supreme Court to
direct his wife to make the allegations
in her complaint more definite and
certain. These allegations, as already
told, accuse him broadly Of misoon-
duct with unknown women at North
Sydney. n. s., couple of years ego
while he was cruising on his yacht. the
Tarantella. Mr.. Gould wants his wife
to specify dates, addresses and persons.
There was no objection to an adjourn
ment Of the Frank Gould motion. but
Clarence ]. Shearn, representing Mrs.
Howard Gould, opposed the application
Of Cornelius j. Sullivan, as counsel for
Howard Gould, for a whole months ad-
journment Sullivan told the court that
on s25 900 a year. almost double the salary
Of Supreme Court Justice, Mrs. Gould
should be able to get along perfectly
for a month, at least. Mr.. Shearn, who
hal just put the motion on the calendar
insisted that every days delay was
loss to his client. as she was entitled TO
much more than $4,000 yearly. He
estimated Howard Gould's income at
5000 900 year. and in reply to statements
by Sullivan that Mrs. Gould had run up
a lot of bills on her husband q credit said
that she was surely ntitled to more than
q twenty fourth part OF her husbands
income. Justice Giegerich then cut down
the mon III to ten days. 1t is not likely
that the Howard Gould suit. which ia
a separation suit, will come to trial be-
fore January
