SURE Of ROOSEVELT
Says Senator Root Is Much
Stronger Than President

WEST vIRGINIANS JOYFUL
Ex-Governor White, and Committee
man Edwards, Believe the Colonel
Can Win the Delegates Sufficient

For Taft.


Chicago, June f9.--When the roll
was called on the vote for temporary
chairman, the report that s. Floyd
Landrath and A. IL. Staples. of the
Fifth Virginia district, had been pull
cd into the Roosevelt camp was veri-
fed.
Weat virginla's delegates are work
ing in the interest OF Col. Roosevelt.
The West Virginia leaders of the
Roosevelt movement who kept the
delegation of sixteen In line for the
Roosevelt cause by opposing the Sc
lection of Senator Root for temporary
chairman, although Senator Scott
made a personal appeal among the
delegates for votes for Root. were
summoned TO Col. Roosevets room
at the Congress Immediately after
the adjournment OF the convention.
Gov Glasscock and Col. Edwards
were summoned to conference at
O'Clock, and they were followed an
hour later BY the entire delegation.
Governor Assured Of Victory.
Gov Glasscock does not believe the
Roosevelt cause is lost through the
election OF Senator Root. Indeed, he
asserted that Senator Root was the
strongest available candidate who
could be induced to enter the run.

paign.
President Taft will not be renom-
mated said the Governor. Senator
Root secured many votes that Mr..
Taft cannot reach. For Instance. the
eight in Maryland, three In Oregon,
and seven In New York given to SEN
ator Root In the contest for the chair
manship will not go to President Taft
am still sanguine Of the nomination
of Col. Roosevelt. We have broken
through the LaFollette lines and our
forces are stronger now than they
have ever been. When many OF the
Southern delegates realize that the
nominee cannot be President Taft.
they will rush to the Roosevelt stand
ard.o
Equally positive that President Taft
would fail Of the nomination were Ma
tional Committeeman Edwards and
William p. Hubbard, the floor leader
OF the delegation.
Doubt Taft Can Get Votes.
Former Gov. Albert b, White, who
arrived yesterday and was spectator
said that the big fight was yet to be
made. White. who was a Roosevelt
supporter, believed the committee on
credentials would GUST the Taft dele
gates In California and Washington.
He said he was very doubtful II Pres
ident Taft could muster sufficient
votes to nominate.
Col. Edwards apparently confident
that President Taft would not be re-
nominated asserted he still believed
Roosevelt would be the nominee OF
the convention. Senator Root was
more than twenty votes stronger than
Taft" said Edwards. -Four States,
Illinois, Maryland, New York, and Or
egon, whose delegates were chosen In
primaries, gave Senator Root his ma
jority, and the Is Roosevelt votes In
these States given to Mr. Root were
responsible for his election over Gov.

II had other things to think Of. This

He was wide-awake now. Doubt

that had been thoughtful Of Pegloe-
he would not forget him-the City
Tavern should continue to enjoy his
patronage. 1t would be something for
Pegloe to boast of that Judge Slocum
Price Turberville always made his
place headquarters when in Raleigh.
Feeling that he had already conferred
wealth and distinction on the fortu.
nate Pegloe the Judge thrust his fat
legs over the side of his bed and stood
erect. STOPPING he reached for his
clothes. He confidently expected to
find them on the floor. but his hand
merely swept an uncarpeted waste.
The Judge was profoundly astonished.
Maybe I've got 'em on. don't re-
call taking them Off" he thought
hopefully. He moved uncertainty in
tho direction of the window, where
the light showed him his own bare ex-
tremities. He reverted to his orig
inal idea that his clothes were scat
tered about the floor.
He was beginning to experience q
great sense of haste; 1t was two miles
to Bcggs' and Fentress would be there
at sun-up. Finally he abandoned his

turned to the door. To say that he
was amazed when he found It. locked
would have most inadequately de-
scribed his emotions. Breathing deep,
he fell back step or two, and then
with all the vigor he could muster
launched himself at the door. But It
resisted him.
Its bolted on the other side!" he
muttered, the full measure OF Peg
loe's perfdy revealing itself to his
mind. He was aghast. It was plot
to discredit him. Pegloe's hospitality
had been inspired by his enemy. for
Pegloe was Fentress' tenant.
Again he attacked the door; he be-
lleved it might be possible to force 1t
from its hinges, but Pegloe had done
his work too we'll for that, and at
last, spent and breathless, the judge
dropped down on the edge of his bed
to consider the situation. He was
without clothes and he was pris-
oner, yet his mind rose splendidly to
meet the difficulties that beset him.
His greatest activities were reserved
for what appeared to be only sea-
son of despair. He armed himself with
a three-legged stool he had found and
turned once more to the door, but the
stout planks stood firm under his
blows.
Unless I get out of here In time
I'm a ruined mani" thought the Judge.
LATTER this Fentress will refuse to
meet mel"
The window next engaged his at
tention. That, too. Pegloe had taken
the precaution to fasten, but a single
savage blow of the stool shattered
glass and sash and left an empty space
that framed the dawn's red glow. The
Judge looked out and shook his head
obviously. It was twelve feet or more
to the ground. risky drop for gen.
tleman of his years and build. The
Judge considered maiking rope OF his
bedding and lowering himself to the
ground by means Of It; he remem-
bored to have read Of captives in that
interesting French prison. the Bas-
tile, who did this. However, an equal
ly ingenious but much more simple

it would form soft and yielding sub

He landed squarely on the rolled.up

Unobserved he gained the edge OF
the town and the highroad that led
past Boggs' and stole q fearful glance
over his shoulder. The sun was clear
of the treetops. he could even feel tho
liieless dust grow warm beneath his
feet; and wrapping the quilt closer

ment OF doubt-doubtless Fentress
had been there and gone! 1t was a
hideous thought and the Judge
groaned. Then at the other end OF the
meadow near the woods he distin-
guished several men, Fentress and his
friends beyond question. The judge
laughed aloud. In spite Of everything
he was keeping his engagement, he
was plucking his triumph out Of the
very dregs of failure. The judge
threw himself over the fence, cor
ner of the quilt caught on one of the
rails; he turned to release 1t, and in
that instant two pistol shots rang out
sharply In the morning air.
