 Washington, D. C., April 14.-Mr
 Roosevelt carries Pennsylvania by {
 majority exceeding one hundred thou
 sand. Returns from all parts of the
 state show everywhere an overwhelm ing vote in favor of the Roosevelt del egates. At midnight it looks as ii
 Roosevelt had carried every congress ional district but ont or two outside
 of Philadelphia and at least two in the city thus taking 27 or 25 of the
 g districts. Of the 376 delegates to
 the state convention Roosevelt has about 300 insuring the election of 12 delegates at large for Roosevelt eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee ifireeal olfte d Pennsylvania has given the Taft cam paign it's solar plexis blow. Senator Penrose, the Taft boss of Pennsylvan- ia, said the other day that he would regard the election of ten Roosevelt delegates from the state as a humili- ating defeat. There will certainly be more than sixty Roosevelt delegates and there may be seventy. The whole Taft campaign may be expected to col lapse as result. West Virginia gets in line with Pennsylvania. County elections today send solid delegation of 17 to the state convention from Upshur county; II out of 13 in Min eral county; 26 out of 39 in Fayette county; 22 out of B in Vabell coun- ty; in Jefferson county all for MT. Roosevelt. Of the delegates to the state convention elected to date Col. Roosevelt has 13S; Taft GA, and unre- ported 2. Four more North Carolina counties elected Roosevelt delegates to the state convention today. Every North Carolina county voting thus far has gone for Roosevelt. Taft has two and two-tenths delegates to the North Carolina state convention thus far. The Taft rout began by Illinois is completed by Pennsylvania.

 Philadelphia, Sunday, April 14.-I (Bulletin) Early returns this morn ing indicate that in the Eighteenth congressional district, M. E.. Olm- stead (Taft) and Harry Hartzeler (Roosevelt) are elected. Late returns show that Roosevelt delegates have won in the Fourth Congressional dis trict in this city. This divides the delegation from Philadelphia six each for Taft and Roosevelt.
 The Roosevelt campaign managers are claiming siXty-two delegates on returns so far. With the exception of one or two districts in the state, | Woodrow Wilson will have a solid delegation from Pennsylvania to the | democratic national convention.
 Of the sixty-four districts fully fifty | are pledged to vote for Roosevelt | Added to this is the probability that | he state republican convention, which | will choose twelve delegates-at-larrge to the national convention, will be controlled by an anti-Taft element nsuring at least 62 delegates for Col. Roosevelt from this state. The re- organization leaders are now stunned by the overwhelming defeat ,f the Taft candidates and have noth- ng to say regarding the result Uni ed States Senator Penrose, recogniz- Id as the leader of the republican or ,anization and the leading Taft boom 1T in this state, left the city early this lfternoon and boarded his yacht at 
 Atlantic City where he is safe from
