MACK AND WOODSON WILL
 ARRIVE AT BALTIMORE TODAY

ond Governor Harmon's nomination have been selected.
 Plans were made today to bring the headquarters of Speaker Clark to this city either the last of this week or the first of next week.
 National Committeeman Edwin O. Wood of Michigan said today that his delega- tion is made up of Harmon, Wilson, Clark and Underwood men. MT. Wood said:
 T had expected that the eommitteeson arrangements, of which I am member, would have met before this to select tenn porary officers of the convention, but after all the selection of the temporary chairman and the preparation of his speech will depend largely on what tho republicans do in Chicago, so there will be plenty of time. 1 haven't the slightest idea who will be the temporary chairman. and do not belieev any other member of the committee knows, either"
 Over 1500 applications have been made for positions as attaches. Each national committeeman will suggest the names of those he desires appointed.
 With the exception of the national con- mittee officers, no one will be permitted to enter the convention building until the opening session of the convention.
 A social feature of the convention will bs a reception given by Mayor and Mrs. James H. Preston of Baltimore at their residence to the delegates and alternates and their families on the evening of June 25.

Recalls Turbulent Scenes

The turbulent scenes that characterized the Bay City convention, where the troops were called out by Governor Osborn, were reviewed by Mir Gordon. who declared he had been struck and knocked off the platform by press agent for Taft in Michigan" after being recognized by Chairman Frank Knox to adSress the convention.
 The Taft forces, he said, took pos session of the Bay City armory the night before the convention. locked the doors in the morning and kept out Roosevelt men when they appeared
 If President Taft sat on the cir cult bench" said Mir Gordon, and it was shown to him that interested par ties had been kept out of court he would say to the other side: You came into this court with unclean hands.
 Gordon appealed to the committee to seat the Roosevelt delegates
 Members of the committee asked MT. Gordon whether there had been any tion to show what strength the Roose- welt forces actually had. He replied that confusion prevented roll call

 c seated lo- out UT tho @oo III the convention." said Gordon
 If you had secured Wayne county. you would have controlled the state convention?" asked the governor
 Yes, by a good majority was the reply.
 King Issued Call
 Paul IT. King, secretary of the re- publican state central committee. speaking for the Taft delegates at large, said he issued the call for the meeting of the republican state central committee at which the Roosevelt men charge the temporary roll of the con- vention was improperly made up.
 King said State Chairman Frank Knox. a Roosevelt man, declined to call the committee together and ma- jority of the committee had acted without him. He insisted that the temporary roll had been properly made. King declared that the removal of Truman H. Newberry, who had been slated for temporary chairman. and the

 ". Haywood related how the sub committee brought the warning fae- tons together and all signed an agree ment under which a new state central committee headed by Victor Loisel was organized. The Loisel delegation ap- peared as the regular Taft delegation. while National Committeeman Pearl Wight headed what was claimed to be the regular Roosevelt delegation"
 L. K. Pugh of Napoleonville, La, argued for the Taft delegation, headed by F. B. Williams. He said as result of the sub b-committees visit three sets of delegates were seeking recognition.
 F. B. Williams said he had not au- thorized any one to represent him per sonally at the armory conferences. Secretary Haywood said Hugh c. Suthon, head of the Roosevelt delega- tion, had appeared as the representa- tive of MT. Williams. In today's hear Ing Williams led the second, or al- legged irregular Taft delegation.

substitution of another chairman, was authorized by the state committee.
 'Mr Newberry, who was formerly as- sistant Secretary of the Navy, was very active in the Roosevelt campaign" said MT King. The committee decided an- other chairman should be selected after MT Newberry made public statements that he would not give any roll calls, that he would decide all questions by viva yoce vote, and that he admitted his personal inclinations might in- 6uence his judgment"
 "He made such statements to me- said former Representative G. J. Dick ma of Michigan, who was sitting in the national committee on a proxy.
 Mir King told Governor Stubbs that he made every effort to get proper tickets to all delegates.
 Used Hot Air
 "The Roosevelt attorneys have talked about a steam roller and a steel rol- ler'" said Alexander Grosbeck an- other representative of the delegates. "They used in Michigan the same thing they are trying to use here. hot air roller"
 Mir Grosbeck denied that the Roose- welt men controlled the Wayne county convention. averring that in it were PIP Taft men and 30 Roosevelt men.
 MT Grosbeck declared that Frank Knox, in behalf of the Roosevelt men, had gotten the militia to take charge of the convention armory. The Roosevelt Taft contest, Grosbeck said, really had nothing to do with the controversy.
 Roy c. Lyle. he said, sergeant at arms, went to the armory the night before the convention to get 1t ready and found the militia there under or ders of Frank Knox and Governor Os- born, and they would not let MT. Lyle or his assistants in."
 The Taft delegates were seated by the national committee without any re- quest from the Roosevelt forces either fo ra roll call or to seat the Roosevelt delegates
 Committeeman Lura of New Mexico made the motion to seat them, and most of the Roosevelt men voted mo" when the question was put.
 The Mississippi contests were then called.
 These contests included the seats of the four delegates at large and two each from the First. Second, Fourth Fifth. Sixth. Seventh and Eighth districts. Ma tional Committeeman L. B.
