Oyster Bay, N. Y, June 27.-Theo- tention upon the Baltimore conven- tion. When seen at Sagamore Hill he was studying the organization of that convention in which the progressives lost by about the same majority which defeated the Republican progressives in Chicago.
 Doesn't the vote at Baltimore re- mind you of something?" he said to a group of reporters. He made it plain that there is close analogy between the present situation in both the Re- publican and the Democratic parties and that the new Roosevelt third party will appeal for considerable Democratic support.
 Murphy will not under any circum- stances support Bryan" said Roose- welt with chuckle. "The progress sjves have got to get together What they heretofore have needed was a leader"
 Re made it clear that he believes he is the only one that can lead the pTogressives.
 q would like to have one thing made plaia," he said. "A sort of ex- ecutive committee has been an nounced as representing the cofning party. I would like it plainly under stood that this committee is simply a tentative one and that it's one object Is to arrange for a mass convention. The convention will select it's own committee. Considerable additions may be made to the present commit tee even before the convention is called"
 twill some Democrats be asked to join?"
 T want it to be a party of all de nominations" responded Roosevelt. While there was some talk of a pre- liminary meeting of the committee this week, no convention will be held until the conclusion of the Democratic convention. It has not been definitely decided where the committee will meet. The convention will be held in the middle west The first plan was to hold it in Chicago. There have been suggestions, however, of St. Louis.'

 Did you have any talk with him?" the senator was asked

Chicago, June 27.-News of the de- feat of William Jennings Bryan m the Baltimore convention by the conserv- ative faction was received with no concealment of joy by adherents of Theodore Roosevelt who are busy with the prelimiparies of organizing new political party in Illinois.
 Tt means that MT. Bryan can now openly declare his despair of injecting progressive principles into the Demo cratic party, and there is no reason why he should not ally himself with Col. Roosevelt and the fight for DO litical freedom" said Medil McCor- mick
 Senator Joseph M Dixon, Roose- velt's campaign manager, has departed for New York
 Charles E. Merriam, Republican candidate for Mayor of Chicago last spring, was mentioned as the possible nominee for governor of the third party.

 Wilson men say that the Clark men realize that to win they must get their majority early. Clark's leaders re- newed their efforts to swing the un- instructed delegates into the camp of the Missourian. They seemed conf. dent of success but the Wilson forces insisted a careful poll proved the speaker could not get enough votes. The Wilson men will devote all of their energies in an effort to hold their delegates on the first few bal lots and prevent Clarks' nomination, feeling certain that if the speaker cannot get the needed two-thirds at the start his strength will disinte- grate
 Bryan will continue his fight for the progressive platform and the pro- gressive candidate to the last He is convinced, however, that the conserv- atives have full control and that his fight will of necessity be a losing one, unless they decide that it would be political suicide to attempt to combat the general sentiment for progressive principles and let the delegates do as they please. If they do that there can be no doubt of the result. The plat form will be short and snappy and will advocate the rule of the people.
 Kern Still Is a Possibility.
 Bryans ringing indorsement of Kerns progressiveness made in nom- mating him for temporary chairman, has caused many of the leaders to wonder whether, after all, Kern would not be good presidential timber. And Kerns open effort for harmony, in his personal appeal to Parker to withdraw in the interests of the party, has en- hanced his popularity with the men who championed Parker's cause.
 Harmon, Underwood and Gaynor are believed to have been eliminated from the race. Their managers kept them in the running, but the enthusi- asm in their headquarters has weak ened.
