asked by Tribune reporter II he still In

DR.. Carr replied
II have never said nor even intimated
that I intended to vote FOR Colonel Roosc-

make such a statement. IL Is too early u

sent"
DR. Carr said that he was still an ad-
mirer Of Colonel Roosevelt Although no

ENGLISH STRIKE CONDITIONS
Alarmist Reports Exaggerated-Trav'
ellers Not Inconvenienced-

Outside the districts where the different
coal mining centres are. stranger sojourn-
ing in London and other principal English
cities would not know Of the existence or
the great coal strike, nor would he suffer
any Inconvenience unless he might wish to
avail himself of suburban train service, and
even this shows only little change. All
prices OF food and accommodation and In
terurban transit are quite normal.
The shops are crowded, and supplies Of
electric light, gas and every other modern
convenience for comfort or luxury have
been uninterrupted. Continental train and
steamboat services are running as usual,
nor is any future difficulty anticipated
along these lines in the large cities, as there
exist immense stores of fuel, both coal and
oil, and ere long the coal strike is ex-
pected to be thing Of the past.
The aarmist articles published In other
countries and in the more hysteric Of Eng
lish papers have caused many travellers TO
avoid England, so that, taking London as
an example, outside OF the favorlte hotels.
such as the Carlton, Metropole, Ritz, Vic
toria and Picca dilly, the hotels are practf-
cally empty. and even the leading ones men
toned have only half the number OF guests
usually entertained at this time OF year.
Americans contemplating a visit to Lon
don or England generally can do so with
an assurance OF meeting with no fncon-
yenience whatever.

of conservative platform as ever He
said:

tlon OF this committee In January, 1911.

after period of disagreement. During the
intervening year and three months the d.

disappeared. We were successful at the
last election and now approach a national
election Of the greatest moment, in which
we are all deeply concerned and in which
We will all do our duty.
III is entirely clear to-day that the FUN
damental principles OF the Republican
party to which referred when ! was first

be fought They are principles that have
made the party what II is to-day and have

When j. II. De Bragga. OF Queens, moved
to adjourn until Monday night. April s. in
Rochester. the night before the convention.
Mr. Barnes said he did not see any reason
for such a meeting.
when is the temporary roll to be made
up?' asked Mr. Koenig.
I'VE have nothing TO do with that Mr
Barnes replied. We have TO take the roll
as ii is certified to us by the Secretary OF
State"
II was decided, however, that something
might come up that would require the at
tention OF the state committee, so ADJOURN
ment was taken until 1880 a. m. on Tues-
day, the opening day OF the convention.
Just before the committee adjourned
Chairman Barnes reminded the members
that under the law they must file state
ments of their election expenses. "e
might as well do it now and have 1t on
our hands and avoid prosecution" said the
chairman.
An examination of the statements showed
that not a single member had expended so
much az the price of a cigar to secure his
election
AS stated in The Tribune some time ago.
II is planned 10 have two-day convention,
in order TO give time for the fullest dis

Month Interregnum.

At the close Of meeting called last
night for the organization OF the Repub-

Alfred Z. Vass the leader of the 18th
Assembly District, had been reelected
chairman, and Frederick w. Rowe, OF the
18th Assembly District, was again elect
ed to the office OF vice chairman. The

treasurer of the Republican organiza-

and won. As soon as Campbell was
resigned. Haskcls name was then
placed in nomination and overwhelming

AS soon as the result was announced
shouts and fragments OF half heard
speeches dinned through the hall. The
moment the noise had quieted sufficient

struggle for the denomination several
sharp words were exchanged by them
The struggle finally ended with a COM
promise in the form Of a rollcall. and
although not more than 30 per cent OF
those present voted the final result gave
Campbell 24l and Haskell 301 votes.
The result OF the resolution passed last
night again placing the destinies Of the
organization in Mr.. Woodruff's hands

VERMONT SURE FOR TAFT
State Chairman SO Informs
Presidents Bureau.
From The Tribune Bureau. !

Washington. April 2-The following tele-
gram was received by the national Tart
bureau to-nigh. from F. c. Williams. chair
man Of the Republican State Central Com
mittee of Vermont:
that Vermont has gone for Roosevelt. No
honest man In Vermont who knows the
facts claims the state Is for Roosevelt. The
report must have been sent out with de-
llberate intent 10 deceive and possibly as
cover for operations not In the open. IN
derstand that Dixon Is coming to Vermont
to stop the Taft men from stealing It,
The men who are elected for Roosevelt can
not be bought and there are no Taft sup
porters in Vermont who would try TO buy
any of them. In most OF the towns the
question of Taft or Roosevelt was squarely
raised and the result not questioned by any
one and the returns from the different
counties are not questioned by tho Roose-
welt men in each county.
Theodore Roosevelt should not allow his
manager to insult the people OF Vermont by
charging that he will not get square deal
from those who were his loyal supporters
for seven years and who are now support
ing the man he recommended as the best
man in the country for the position, be-
cause they believe that President TAFT has
fully justified Colonel Roosevelts state
ment. -,
LIST District and in the state convention
as shown by the first return has not been
materially altered, and Tart leads In tne
delegates in the "a District. with a few
towns not heard from.
The first returns from Vermont Indicated
that the friends OF President Taft would
control the state convention by about $50

BRITISH MINERS BALLOT
Returns will Show Majority
Against ReSuming Work.
MEN WILL NOT ACT AS UNIT
Those Who Have Already Gone
Back to the Pits Will
Disregard Vote.

London, April 1.-The balloting OF the
miners on the question OF terminating the
coal strike has finished. but the official re-
turns will not be available until to-mor-
row. Apparently there will be a majority
against the resumption OF work. Under tho
rules of the Miners Federation two
thirds majority is necessary TO authorize Q
national strike. and 1t is a question Of
doubt whether a bare majority will suffice
for the continuance Of the strike. This
point has not arisen heretofore. and which
ever way It Is decided IL will probably
cause dissension and delay and possibly
split in the federation.
Meanwhile more than thirty thousand
miners have already resumed, and II the
decision Is against restarting the mines IL
is certain that thousands OF men who are
deslrous of working will disregard 1t.
Both the president and the secretary Of
the federation express the opinion that the
executive will decide that a two-thirds
vote is necessary for a continuance OF the
strike and that at a meeting OF the execu-
tive to he held on Thursday the men will
be advised to resume. although there may
be a majority against It.
British railway traffic statistics for the
current week show still heavier losses than
In the previous week.
King George. Queen Mary and the Queen
Mother Alexandra have contributed 5000
each for the relief OF the widespread DIS
tress.
The idea OF the bulk Of the Fngi'sh
miners in voting against returning 70
work appears to be the opinion that the
terms obtainable from the district boards
to he appointed under the minimum wags
act while they remain on strike will prob
ably be better than those they would OBJ
tain II they were working.
The action Of the Welsh miners IN vot-
ing for a resumption has been influenced
largely by the fact that the funds Of their
union are exhausted and the slender saw
ings Of the miners are disappearing.
Those OF the miners who are opposing
the return TO tho pits are doing so In d.
rect opposition to the advice OF their lead
ers. the majority of whom believe that
the men have won n victory with which
they should he satisfied for the present at
least.
In view OF saving fuel number Of fac-
tories which have been able TO continue
