Colonel Admits Weakness.

MIR. Roosevelt admitted his own
lack OF strength by declining to place
before the convention a candidate for
temporary chairman. His managers
attempted coalition with the can
didate OF Senator La FoIlette, but the
combination was repudiated- They
attempted. however. to disguise their
own weakness by this action and also
to accomplish the overthrow of Sena-
tor Root by united opposition. Mr..
Roots splendid victory despite these
tactics positively assures the nomi-
nation of President Taft.
The full limit of the Roosevelt
strength has now been polcd and
Mr.. Roosevelt still lacks seventy or
more votes Of the necessary major
ity. Every effort will be made TO de-
bate and delay the considers tlon OF
all questions In the hope that oppor-
tunity will be given TO make fur

ROOSEVELT CAMP
PROCESSES CHEER

CHICAGO, June 1s.-''rm a better
warrior than a prophet said Colonel
Roosevelt when he was asked his opinion
OF the outcome of the convention That
was all he would say tonight.
Mr.. Roosevelt directed his own battle
in the convention hall over a telephone
wire Hidden away in a room in his ho-
tel he spent most Of the time with q
receiver at his ear, listening to reports
Of his lIeutenants and issuing orders in
person. He was seen only once or twice
during the day, as he hurried through
the corridors. He waved his hand md
smiled at the people who cheered him.
In spite OF the high pressure under which
he has been working, he appeared TO be
as vigorous as the day he left Oyster
Bay.
The wire over which Roosevelt gave
his directions was specially Installed for
the convention and has no conn ection
with any switchboard, Arrangements
were so made that no person other than
Colonel Roosevelt and the man at the
Coliseum end of the wire could by any
chance overhear the conversations.

directing the fight on the floor Of the
convention. Word was passed 10 all the
roosevelt delegates ito follow Hadley."
Talk OF a bolt as a result OF the deci-
sion to disregard the action OF q majority
or the convention unless 1t be composed
OF uncontested delegates was said to be
unfounded.
You may be sure that the convention

one OF tho men who attended tonight's
conference.
Colonel Roosevelt addressed a caucus
OF Roosevelt delegates for a quarter Of
an hour He congratulated them on the
stand they had taken In the convention
today and urged them TO stand by Gov
ernor Hadley tomorrow. He said the sit
uatlon tonight seemed to have been most
encouraging and he felt sure the conven-
tion would not support the national COM
nlittee and seat delegates who. he as
serted. had no rights in the convention.
In emphatic language the colonel told
the delegates he would not abide by
such action and that he felt sure they
would not.

When the convention had adjourned
the Roosevelt leaders hastened back and
began g. series of conferences with their
chief which extended late into the night:
Colonel Roosevelt's associates predicted
confidently that the fight would be won,
although they guarded carefully the plans
for tomorrow which We're framed at to-

admitted that the vote on the election
Of Senator Root as temporary chairman
was TOO close to be comfortable" al
though they insisted they would be able
to maintain control OF the convention.

election was accomplished. Estimates by
Taft partlsans tonight placed the real
