HITCHCOCK MAY BE CHAIRMAN.
Taft Manager Has Not Retired From Contest.

Cincinnati, O., June 22.-Practically
 no new facts were, developed regard ing the Republican, national subcom-
 mittee's inaction on the question of the national chairmanship. While the dis cussion at the conference took a wide range. it can be stated authoritatively that few names of possible appointees
 were considered. It was the consen- sus of opinion among Secretary Taft's advisers that the selection of chair
 man should be postponed at least for a time in order that so momentous sideration.
 Before leaving here for New Haven Secretary Taft received telegrams from party leaders throughout the
 country urging him not to hurry in de- ciding the chairmanship question. One of these messages came from Secre-
 tary of State Root, who pointed out the undesirability of undue haste and
 suggested the advisability of postpon-
 ing action until the political atmos-
 phere had cleared.
 With this view Secretary Taft was in cordial agreement. and it was on his suggestion that the committee de termined to defer definite action until
 July 1. It can be reiterated that the proceedings of the committee constitut-
 ed in no sense an elimination of any
 man who has been considered in con-
 nection with the chairmanship. Frank
 H. Hitchcock, Secretary Taft's man.
 ager, is said to be as distinctly a fac tor in the chairmanship equation as he was prior to the meeting of the subcommittee. Shortly after the re-
 ceipt of MT. HitChcock's telegram re- questing that he be not considered in
 connection with the chairmanship on
 account of his health Secretary Taft
 tslegraphed Mir. Hitchcock inquiring solicitously about his condition The
 secretary received reply from him
 saying that he felt better, but was se-
 riously in need of a rest.
 Secretary Taft spoke in the highest terms of the services which MT. Hitch cock has rendered him.

YALE YELL
 FOR TAFT
Candidates Visit to His
 Alma Mater.
HIS PLANS FOR SUMNER.

Will Spend Short Time In Hot Springs, Va, Before Going to Cincinnati For Formal Notification-Would Like to Pay Usual Visit to Canadian Haunts, but Fears They Are Too Far Away
 For Politicians-WilI Be at cincin- nati Headquarters Continuously After
 Sept. i.
 New Haven, Conn.,, June 22.-The principal feature of the Yale com mencement this year is the visit to New Haven of William Howard Taft, Yale IS, the Republican nominee for president of the United States. MT. Taft will remain in New Haven for three days and may stay in Connect icut long enough to see the boat race between Yale and Harvard on Thurs day.
 This is the thirtieth anniversary of the class of '7s, with which the secre- tary graduated so that MT. Taft will have happy reunion with many of his one time fellow students.
 Late in the week, when Mir. Taft re- turns to Washington, it is probable that he will announce his plans for the summer, including the location of his headquarters.
 In Washington July i.
 He will remain in Washington until after the session of the subcommittee of the Republican national committee which is to be held there on the first of July. It is not improbable he may remain there few days longer, as he has some matters to attend to which he desires to dispose of before going on his summer vacation.
 Only tentative plans thus far have been made by Secretary Taft for the summer months. He probably will go, accompanied by Mrs. Taft, to Hot Springs, Va, for three or four weeks, beginning early in July.
 Would Lik. to Go to Canada.
 He says he would enjoy above all else going to Murray bay, Canada, where for the last sixteen years he has spent his summers, but as that To- cation is out of the way and not easily accessible objection has been made by some of his personal friends to his going there even for so brief period as he expects to utilize this year as vacation time. It will be necessary for him, too. to be in Cincinnati about July 20 to re- ceive the formal notification of his nomination for the presidency. It is his intention now to pass three or four days there about that time and then return to Hot Springs for the remain der of his summer outing.
 Plans have been practically com pleted by which, after Sept 1, Secre- tary Taft will be continuously in Cin- cinnati.

Friends, Acting In Self Defense.
 Hermann, Mo-, June 22.-"Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.'
 Riddled with bullets and buckshot from the guns of a dozen members Of his congregation, the Rev. Valentine Strauss of the German Evangelical church returned to sanity few sec onds before his death and with his last words prayed for the kneeling and bareheaded men who had killed him. They have been exonerated. The Rev. MT. Strauss became insane two months ago with homicidal mania. He began roaming the country at night with a shotgun in his hands and a rife swung over his shoulder. From crags and treetops he fired at men, women and children. Most of the time he missed, but on four occasions his aim was good, and three men and a woman were hurt, but not seriously. His wife and five children escaped from him until just before his death, when he started from his home at Stople, fourteen miles southwest of here. for Fredericksburg, with intent to kill His wife ran before him shouting a warning to neighbors. At the blacksmith shop of Max knieche, where the tragedy occurred, she was but a few hundred feet in front of her husband. She shouted a warning to the men in the shop as Strauss turned and fired at her. He missed. Then he turned his rife on Knieche. Again he missed.
 Knieche and a dozen armed men who were in the forge with him ran forward toward the minister, who was preparing to fire again. Six double barreled shotguns sent their contents into his body, and an equal number of rifles blazed out bullets at the mad clergyman.
 Although wounded in half dozen places, the dying pastor staggered across the roadway into a pasture and sank under large tree where he had held his first religious service in Gas conade county.
 His slayers ran forward and sur rounded him. Strauss head was pill lowed on his wife's lap. The light of reason gleamed in his fast blazing eyes for the first time in two months.
 He said few words of forgiveness and died.
