When adjournment was taken at
3:15 o'clock II was the belief that
other compromises could be effected
to dispose of some OF the remaining
contests without the formal charge
OF arguments. In the Missouri cases
as soon as Gov. Hadley's Roosevelt
delegation had been seated, confer
ences were undertaken amongst the
Missouri factions. which resulted in
the dividing Of the contested dele
gates between Roosevelt and Taft
Similar conferences are expected to
result In the consolidation of several
OF the other state cases before the
committee resumes work tomorrow
These compromises will not affect
Texas or Washington, It is under
stood, but may take In several OF the
other states. The committee will
settle another factional fight In North
Carolina tomorrow and will then take
up the third Oklahoma district
The contests remaining involve

will meet them and the formal open
ing OF the park will take place.

cure tickets for the ride at Fergu-
sons studio or home, VIM. Houran's
store, Mrs. Haynes, Union street

Order as would like to accompany
us.

OF MISSOURI
DELEGATES TO
ROOSEVELT.
Committee Evidently Didn't
Dare Take Them all
BUT DID GRAB SIX
Today and tomorrow viii Practical
ly Complete Committee Hearings
on the Contested Cases.

Chicago, June 14,--Taft was given
the two delegates from the 5th Okla
homa district today by the usual
vote, the Roosevelt men Directing
strenuously.
The committee then took up the
Tennessee and South Carolina cases
in which the contest was between
two sets of delegates, both favorable
to Taft. The Roosevelt men had a
chance to rest up.
The Taft camp was thrown into
Consideration today by repeated re
ports that the reason why the Roose-
welt men did not put up contest in
the cases from several of the south
ern states was because a considerable
number of delegates seated by the
committee as Taft delegates are in
reality for Roosevelt.
Two from Alabama and two from
Mississippi have already announced
themselves and it is said today that
these will be joined by others from
these states and a part of the delega-
tons from Georgia and Florida.
A clever Roosevelt plot is alleged
whereby these delegates would be
seated beyond possibility of contest
through making a little demonstra-
ton against them and leading the
national committee to believe that
II was seating straight Taft dele
gates
A complete hospital including also
an undertaking department has been
installed in an annex to the auditor
ium ready for next weeks conyen-
ton.

Chicago. June 13.-Eight delegates
for Col Roosevelt and Is for Presl'
dent Taft marked the days gains in
the two chief rivals for the presiden-
tial nomination from the decision OF
contest cases by the republican ma
tional committee In addition, the
committee settled disputes between
rival Roosevelt factions in two dis
tricts OF North Carolina, thus clear
ing the colone's title to votes from
those sections.
1t was a day of Roosevelt victories
but victories achieved with the full
acquiescence Of Taft majority on the
national committee. Missourfs con
tests which threatened another battle
between the Taft and Roosevelt fac
tons in which the lines would be
closely drawn were compromised SO
effectively that the committee was
unanimous in giving Roosevelt eight
and Taft six of the contested dele
gates from that state
In the ninth North Carolina district
the committee seated the McNinch'
Green delegation, but the contest did
not involve presidential candidates as
both delegations were instructed fol-

test, the committee considered the
third district contest and seated the
two Roosevelt Decentralization But

Chicago, June 1.-THE first blood
of the national convention was drawn
today on the street in front OF the
convention hall when Grant Victor, a
Taft delegate from Oklahoma, struck
l.. s. Bismay. Roosevelt supporter,
in the face, drawing blood.
Victor was angered by remark
made by Bismay about the unfairness
of the Taft members of the national
committee. Victor undertook TO
strike record blow, but was met in
the face by the fist Of Patrick Dore,
an oklahoma Roosevelt man. The,
three men were taken away by their
friends.
A strange situation exists relative
to the vice presidency. Two avowed
candidates are the only ones so far
having headquarters. They are Pres
ent Vice President James S. Sherman
and Governor John A. Mead OF Yer
mont Neither is said to be accepta-
BILE to Taft who wants progressive
