 Fitzgerald declared that Roosevelt is the greatest danger faced by the republic" and quoted at length from q speech by Lincoln t. bear out his charge. As an indication of Roose- velts attitude toward the presidency, Fitzgerald produced a memorandum prepared when pI; ms for the new eX- ecutive offices at the White House were under consideration in 1902 Beside the discussion of temporary and permanent quarters for the presi- dent there appeared in the hand writing of Roosevelt the words to be permanent during my lifetime" The ''my" was heavily underscored, com mented Fitzgerald waving the docu- ment at arms length and the demo- cratic side of the house WIS rocked with laughter.

CLAIMING RIGHTS
 UNDER PRIMARY
A New Problem Which the National Convention It. self May Have to Settle 260 Contest Have Been Filed Up to Date.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcHl

CHICAGO, May 29.-Word that E. F Howell the recently elected rcpub- lican national committeeman from Nebraska, at the direct primary will come to Chicago June 6 when the national committee meets to hear the contests and will demand his seat caused d stir today among the mem bers of the committee.
 Howell. supporter of Roosevelt was chosen at the direct primary t. succeed Victor Rosewater acting chairman of the republican national committee whose official duty II would be- to call the convention to order on June IS and introduce Elihu Root as temporary chairman.
 Howell advised that under the law he is entitled to immediate possession of his seat and win insist upon rec o5nitiOn
 The Roosevelt managers declare that at least five new national committee men will attempt to assume their of ticial duties before the question of contests is taken up by the commit tee. The operation of the direct pri- mary laws in the states where ma tIoual committeeman are chosen by popular vote instead of by the dele gates has presented d new problem which probably will have to be dealt with either by the national committee or the national convention
 The time limit set by the national committee in it's call. for filing con tests expired at midnight and the briefs in all cases are now in the hands of Secretary Hayward and will be tabulated for consideration by the national committee when it meets on June G. About 26o contests have been filed. Z25 prepared by the Roosevelt forces and thirty-fire by the friends of Taft
 Tickets to the convention will be distributed through the national com litteemen of the different states on June r the only exception is 200Q tickets for Chicago which contributed a fund of $130,0o0 for the expenses or the convention. Senator Burton of Ohio is mentioned as the probable SC lection to make the nominating speech for Taft
 The friends of Roosevelt insisted that a picture of their candidate be given equal prominence with that of Taft in the convention hall decora tions. No action was taken.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

CHIHUAHUA. Mexico. May 29.- Intjmating that the revolutionary au- thorties may have trouble in restrain ing the populace after they find to what extent assistance is being given the government troops by America, Orozco and his followers today for maIy protested h American Consul Letcher against the United States allowing Mexico to recruit and drill soldiers north of the international boundary line
 The protest was published in all the papers here. It is suggested in it that possibly the United States has been promised some concessions, probably land by Mexico in the event of its victory
 Back of the protest is the fact. however that the rebels, smarting under the stringent orders of the United States allowing no ammuni- tion to cross the line and as it is known that they are in desperate straits for ammunition. the protest IS easily understood
 The protest concluded. Heretofore Americans have been given every guaranty. but if the people become in censed and take revenge into their own hands, the authorities might not be able to restrain them, in which case the revolutionist government will not be responsible for what hap .DtuS
