Much Speculation as to Name
Of Man Who Will Take
Charge of G. 0. P.
MEYER MAY BE CHOSEN
HITCHCOCK AND VoRYs BOTH
DESIRE THE POSITION BUT
BOTH MAY BE DISAPPOINTED
ROOSEVELT MAY SAY.

Chicago, June 19--The Ohio delega-
ton is in a great turmoil over the
craftsmanship of the national commit
tee, and, as predicted in this correspon-
dence several days ago, Post Master
General Won L. Meyer probably will be
selected as the successor of Harry S.
New.
The whole matter in a nutshell is
that the Ohio delegates do'not care to
see Frank II. Hitchcock promoted.
They look upon Vory's as the man to
be honored by the success of Taft.
They declare Vorys was the original
Taft manager and laid the ground
floor for his boom.
Friends of Hitchcock are just as pos
tive in declaring the ground floor was
poorly laid and if Hitchcock had not
stepped in Taft could not have won.
They declare his campaign was in a
state of chaos up to the time the man
who had fostered sentiment for his
chief, Cortelyou, stepped in.
President Roosevelt has a high re-
gard for Hitchcock, but at the same
time it is declared on good authority
he feels 1t would be,unwise for Taft to
create any more i'll feeling with the
Foraker or any other element in Ohio.
Neither the secretary nor his brother
Charles cares to discuss the matter.
Charles Taft was too. happy over the
success of his brother to bother with
the craftsmanship. Anyhow he de-
clared it Is matter for the candidate
and the committee to decide.
Speaking of the committee. there
rumors that several of the committee
men were objecting to Hitchcock on ac-
count of his action in sitting in some
of the contest cases by reason of hold
Ing a proxy. Not a committeeman
could be found who would say he had
any such idea, but at the same time
they all declared, they would not cross
this bridge until they came to it, in
other words, until after the ticket had
been completed.
Hitchcock and Vorys are saying
nothing, but it is plain they are watch
ing each other closely. They both
realize Secretary Taft will be guided
largely by the advice of President
Roosevelt, who has solved many such
hard problems, and he will no doubt
find way to suggest one to Mr.. Taft
to care for the situation.

CHINAMEN CONVICTED
FOUND GUILTY or MURDER IN
 FIRST DEGREE.
Wary Charles, One of the weaHthiest and Nest InanenttaI Chlnnn,en of Boston, Was Among
 These C0nvaeted.

Boston. March 7--Warry Charles, one of the weaith.est and most infsn- ential Chinamen Of Boston. and eight of his conntrymen, claimed to beJnoto by a jury in the Superior Criminal Court late today of murder in the first degree on four counts. alleging the kill- ing of four Chinamen in Boston, Aug. 2 of last year
 A tenth defendant. Fee Watt, who had also been on trial on the same charges, d.ed suddenly in his cell last Tuesday while the trial was in pfog- ress. The men today found guilty are Min Sing. Hom Woon. Leon Gong. Wong Duck. Wong How, Joe Guey, Dong Box, Ling Tee. Jung and Wary Charles.
 The men were accused of the murder of Chin Mong Quin, Wong Shu Chung. Chin Leet and Lee Kafnem. In each case, Wary Charles was accused of being an accessory before the fact. The murders for which the nine Chinafnen were found guilty. grew out of long standing feud between the Hip Sing Tong and the On Leong Tong. rival Chinese societies. Early In the even ing on Friday, Aug. 2. 1907, number of strange Chinamen suddenly appeared in Oxford Place. In the heart of the Chinese quarter of Boston. and when signal was given. began firing from TSVOlVefS Oh neANy ChtADFS upun sCofSB 6f Chinese merchants and laundrymen. who were lazsly lolling about. Over forty shots were fired and when the police appeared, they found three Chi- namen dead and a dozen seriously wounded, one of whom died.
 Shoy Tong, one of the principal Gov ernment witnesses, testified that Wary Charles, President of the Hip Sing Tong, had instigated the killing. Dur ing his testimony, he stated, Charles said that he would have to do some killing to make the Chinese business men understand that all Of them would join our society"
 Charles is also alleged to have said we were getting to be dead ones. and ulist Kill some one" Tong testified further that Charles proposed sending to New York, Philadelphia and Chicago for ''hatchet men, who were unknown, to do the killing. as they would be bet ter able to escape.

He characterized Jackson as the most remarkable combination of humble piety and vaultIng ambition" the world has ever seen. but he qualified this statement by saying that Jackson'a ambition was of that unselfish variety which seeks the nobiest and highest in life. Dramatically he related the incident at Buli Run through which Jackson Acquired the name by which he later became universally known, The many striking incidents of the chieftain's life were entertainingiy de. scribed, and the great pathos of hfi death was portrayed most beautifully Tn the course of his lecture Mfr Vending touched upon the causes oi the civil war.
