With this object 10 view we tested
the disinfecting powers OF some OF

about which there seems to be a

powers Of killing bacteria. Among
the things tested were baking soda,

Common baking soda in a saturated
solution did not kill bacteria when
they were exposed to it for one to

worthlessness Of baking soda as a.

OUTCOME IS UNCERTAIN
Conflicting Claims on Chicago
Convention.
MANYDELECATESCoNTESTED
National Committee Began Work
This Week.

Members of the Republican
national committee met in Chicag
on June 6. They are called upo,
to decide 238 contests. Fou
years ago there were 21o contest
submitted to the committee. Tn,
number tabulated this year is fewe
than had been expected, owing, j
is SAID, to the fact that in severa
districts where the Roosevelt ad
herants threatened to make con
tests it apparently was decided a,
the last not to make fight.
Of the total contests filed, III
were presented by followers ol
Colonel Roosevelt and II by friends
OF President Taft. The principal
contests filed by the Taft managers
are from Missouri and Texas. In
Louisiana three sets of delegates
were elected at large and in the
First, Second, Fourth and Fifth
districts, two sets were named by
the supporters Of President Taft
and one was secured by friends Of
Colonel Roosevelt.
More delegates tllan the num-
Der specified in the call for the
convention were chosen at large
and in the Fifth district of Ken
lucky, in the Fourth district Of
Minnesota, in the Seventh district
OF Texas and in the Tenth and
Eleventh districts of Georgia.
Secretary Hayward has classed
these contests and the committee
will be done with the cases.
There are contests from IS states
and the District of Columbia.
On June /, with 22 delegates
still to be chosen-6 from Ohio, 6
from Arizona and 10 from South
Dakota-the Taft bureau at Wash.
ington claimed 583 delegates for
President Taft, or 43 more than
enough to nominate.
A prominent Taft follower at the
national capital, whose name is
not given, is quoted as having
made an estimate giving Taft only
1873 uncontested delegates and
Roosevelt AIS. Six Of 228
contests he classed without merit,
and of the other 222 he figured
Taft would win four. .ffths, thereby
allowing Taft $40 votes on first
ballot, or only nine more than is
required to dominate.
The Spokesman Reviews table
last Sunday Classics the delegates
as follows: Roosevelt 454, Taft
243, doubtful 1o9, contested 2o4,
LaFollette 36, Cummins 10, yet to
be elected ~.
On May 81 the Boise States
mans table purporting to show
how the delegates are expected to
vote, gave the following: Instruct
ed for, pledged or favorable to
Taft, 4S8; to Roosevelt, 454; La
Toilette, Sc; Cummins, 10; unin-
structed, unclassifed, uncertain,
66; yet to be elected "a. These
figures, however, concede to Taft
all of the delegates contested by
Roosevelt.
