Chicago, H., June 15.- Despite
loud protests from the Roosevelt
members of the national committee,
the committee this morning tenn
porarily passed the matter OF dis
trict contests and took up for con-
sideration the seating Of the Vir-

Colonel Cecil Lyon, the commit

fore the committee, stating that he
believed that technically there was
no contest from Texas before the
committee, because he believed that
Taft's briefs were not filed in

because Texas. apparently, was no,
ready.
The Texas Committeeman, Colon
ell Lyon, protested that he was
ready, but to no avail, and the
Virginia matter was taken up, But
the Virginia delegates were not
ready with their case and Virginia
was postponed The Washington
case was then called, but the dele
gates from that state were not
prepared and that state was pass
ed.
The committee then took up the
Texas contest again.
Frederick c. Bryan, an attorney
representing Taft before the COM
mittee, in discussing the Texas con-
test matter said: Colonel Lyon
is the republican party In Texas.
Any one who has wrecked the re-
publican party as he has wrecked
it in Texas ought to be recalled. II
ycu let him run things four years
longer there will be no republican
party. Lyon does not want re-
publican party III Texas, he wants

The committee seated the eight
delegates at large from Texas for
Taft, this action being taken on the
grounds that they believed the
Texas points casting the heaviest
vote were for Taft.
Taft was also given the con-
tested Texas delegates in the first,
second, fourth and fifth districts.
Roosevelt was given the third dis
trict.
