OF "oLD GuARD"-"SUNNY JIM"
BEAT HIM.

New York. Aug. l6.-T Theodore
Roosevelt matched strength with the
"old guard OF the republican party
in New York state today and met de-
cisive defeat.
The republican state committee in
session here, by vote of twenty 10
fifteen, refused to recommend him for
temporary chairman of the state con
vention, which meets at Saratoga on
Sept. 27. Instead, Vice President
James S Sherman was selected.
This is Col Roosevelt's second de-
feat at the hands of the "old guard, -
the first having been In the legisla-
nre's refusal to pass the Cobb direct
primary bill, although Mr.. Roosevelt
especially endorsed it. With his set
back today plans for harmony within
the party in the state received a Sc
we're setback; and, as soon as Col.
Roosevelt heard the news he issued a
stat ement in which he enrolled him
self as Il progressive, SO far as the
New York state situation goes.
It was his most pointed political
statement since MS return. and those
who saw him We're convinced that he
had determined to begin an open fight

Although repudated today. II does
no necessarily mean that Col. Roose-
welt will not be temporary chairman

notice on the eX-president and his sup
porters that the "old guard" would
give him a fight to the end
