adopting opposite declarations of principles, selecting two state central committees and paved the way for two state tickets to be voted for in November.
 The break came following the seat ing by the executive committee of the old state central committee, of a ma Jority of the progressive delegates whose seats had been contested by the followers of President Taft. This ac- .tion gave the Roosevelt progressive faction control of the convention.
 The Taft delegates to the number of something over 150, more than half their total strength in the conven- ton, it was claimed, left the hall to the accompaniment of jeers and cheer. ing by the progressives. As they marched out the contesting progress i've delegates who had been unseated by the report of the committee, march ed in and took their places.

.DARR0W STILL ON STAND
SAYS HE STILL EXPECTS PARDON
 FOR McNAMARAS.
Defendant Makes Favorable lmpres- sion in Offering of Testimony
 Is Self-Composed

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 1.-New phases of the defense in the Darrow bribery trial were expected to be dis closed when Attorney Darrow, the defendant. resumed his testimony. It was evident when court opened that the defendant was making a favorable impression with the spectators in the court room, whether the jury was i'm pressed or not. Darrow speaks In a low clear voice, and throughout he has retained his composure excepting during that portion of his testimony which referred to his efforts to save the lives of the McNamara brothers, when he was bargaining in their be- half during the latter part of Jim Me Namara's trial
 The defendant again repeated in various forms his denial that he was involved in any way in the alleged bribing of jurors in the McNamara case. At one point in his testimony Darrow surprised the spectators when he said he persuaded the McNamara brothers to accept sentences togeth- CT, believing that the time would come when the sentences would be commuted or the men pardoned.
 Il still cling to that belief he added.

To The Public

In as much as good deal of misunderstanding and uncer. tainty exists in the minds of many people of our state in re-, gard to the condition of affairs aft the University, the faculty of the University wishes the people to know what the facts are.
 l. The Board of Trustees, while taking time to select a president with mature dehbera. tion, has appointed Prof. J. H. Reynolds of the Department of History acting president of the University, with full authority to conduct the affairs of the institu. tion. There is every reason to believe that this arrangement for the administration of the Univer- sity will continue throughout the coming academic year.
 7. The members of the faculty are unanimous in their endorse ment of the action of the Board and in their hearty support of President Reynolds and his ad. ministration. They have m- plicit confidence in his ability to guide the affairs of the Univer- sity with wisdom and judgment. his administration will stand for the best academic traditions and for the highest standard of char acter,
 3. As an evidence of their faith in Prof. Reynolds the fac ulty is harWoniously aworking with him to organize the various forces of the University for bet ter and larger services to the students and to the state. In this work they are invoking the experience of the best universi- ties of the country. The people may rest in the assurance that the president and faculty will en- force proper dicipline, will main tain high standard of scholar ship, and will train the young men and women of Arkansas to become obedient to authority and to become useful citizens of the state.
 i. Instead of being discourag- ed the faculty is hopeful and con tident that the University has be- fore it a career of great useful ness and development. To the realization 0f tnelr highest ideals of a state university worthy of the people of this great state serving their every need the fac ulty is consecrating their best efforts. They therefore ask the people of this state to 4give the present administration the conti- dence and support that it deser- yes.
 The resolutions quoted above were unanimously adopted at a meeting of the faculty held July 26, 1912, with Prof. c. W. Drake acting as chairman and Prof, c. G. Carroll, secretary.

May Bolt in Illinois.

Chicago, Aug. IA bolt of the Roosevelt Bull Moose forces in the state convention in Orchestra Hall Saturday is fomenting. A terrific fight against a third Illinois ticket is on and will be carried to the floor of the convention. Emissaries from down state have reached Chicago, and the battle is to be wased with ven geance, it is asserted, to stop the third ticket agitators. More than third of the delegates are reported ready to walk out of the Orchestra Hall convention unless the third state ticket men capitulate.
 Powerful organization influences that have been working during the last two sessions of the legislature in favor of progressive laws are in the field, laboring with delegates to the state convention of the Bull Moose party to prevent what they declare will be a "big blunder."

BOLT IN ILLINOIS PREDICTED
Nebraska Republicans Hold Two Con. ventions, Party Having Split Third Party is Formed
 in Minnesota.

Kansas City, Aug. 1.-Following a discussion in which most of the 400 delegates to the Bull Moose conven- tion wanted to participate, the third party in Missouri has decided to put a complete State ticket in the field.
 As a consequence of the decision to put ticket in the field the conven- tion will be held in St. Lopis Septem- Der g. and the state committee, elect ed by the delegates from the 16 dis tricts was instructed to prepare for it. The plan of the Bull Moose lead CTS is to hold a convention of not less than 1000 delegates. Apportionment and such matters was left to the state organization.
 The purpose of not having less than 1000 delegates is found in the fact that at least that number of sigma lures will be necessary to petitions for a complete ticket. The petition will be presented to the Secretary of State with a demand that it be filed as a regular party nomination. In the event lu6 SeCI6ldly Ol Didle IeluStS lO dC- cept the ticket and print the names of the candidates on the November elec- tion ballots a mandamous compelling him to do so will be asked. That would mean a contest of the consti- nationality of the direct primary law.
 Walker is Committeeman.
 Not only did St. Louis secure the convention at which the state ticket will be placed in the field, but it gar nered the national committeeman for the new organization. He is William H. Walker There was no fight over that office, but the delegates worked themselves up over the question whether electors on the Republican ticket could be placed on the pro gressive ticket even if these Repub- lican electors would pledge theo- selves to vote for the nominee of the Chicago Bull Moose convention. They decided to the contrary and to Co it alone"
