CHICAGO, H., April 9.-Winners in the Illinois preferential, advisory and direct primary elections today. as in dioated by sufficient returns to war rant a prediction are as follows:
 For president, Theodore Roosevelt. republican; Champ Clark, democrat.
 United States senator, L. Y. Sher- man, republican,; J. Hamilton Lewis, democratic (unconotested)
 Governor, Charles s. Deneen, repub- lican; F. Dunne. democrat.
 Roosevetls managers claimed a ma iority over Taft from a hundred to d hundred and fifty thousand. Returns indicate the vote is nearly five to two.
 Presidential delegates not named on the ballots and will be elected at con- gressional districts at large.
 Sherman's lead over Cullom in the advisory vote for senator is small, and complete returns may throw it to Cullom.
 Deneens chief fight was against Len Small, referred to in the campaign as Lorimer's candidate Advices six hours after the polls closed indicated De- neen had won by about five to three.
 Wayman led Small in Cook county, where Deneens estimated majority is 2S,0O0 The democratic contest for governor offered more opportunity for conjecture. At midnight Dunne had an indicated majority of 61,000 in Cook county, but Alschuler his nearest competitor, appeared to be running so well in the state that conservative es- inmates place Dunne's majority from ten to twenty thousand in the state.
 Congressional returns here delayed and authoritative estimates were i'm possible. Cook county voters appeared to favor B. M. Chiperfield. and w. F.. Mason, republican nomination for congressman at large and Lawrence Stringer and either J. P. Brennan. or w E. Williams for the democratic nomination
 Chicago voted two to one against suffrage. The question was not on the ballots outside the city.

LaFOllette boiled small vote. Cook county, where he appeared strongest had about 14.440. where Roosevelts apparent vote was S6.144 and that of Taft 52,O64. He ran much stronger down the state.
 Champ Clark's candidacy met just the opposite result. In Chicago his apparent majority, based on more than three quarters of the total number of precincts. was above ninety thousand, or about four to one for Wilson.
 In the state precincts his lead is in the proportion of eight to five. bringing his general proportion about two to one.

 WASHINGTON, April 9-Senator Dixon. manager for the Roosevelt campaign committee. made the state ment tonight that Illinois republi- cans have declared for Roosevelt for the nominee for president by more than a hundred thousand majority. The overwhelming repudiation of Taft by the republicans of Illinois ends the Taft campaign for renomination. Wherever through legitimate primar- ies an expression has been had. re- publican voters have utterly repujiat- ed Taft. Certainly no republican lead CT can longer doubt that the attempt to force Taft's nomination under these circumstances will be suicide for she republican party. Roosevelt will be
