NOTABLE FIGHT ENDS
Taft-RooseveIt Speechmaking
Campaign Closed.
THREE EXCITING MONTHS
Neither Candidate for Nomination
Going to South Dakota.
BOTH SIDES REPEAT CLAIMS
Managers and Assistants Will Es-
tablish Themselves in Chi
cago Monday.

| So far as direct appeal to the voters of
the country is concerned, Col. Roosevelt's
victory in New Jersey has brought to a
close the unprecedentedly bitter fight in
which President Taft, Mr.. Roosevelt and
| Senator La Toilette have been almost
constantly engaged for the last three
months.
South Dakota's primaries, June A. and
the state conventions of Arizona and
| Ohio will not engage the personal activ-
| ity of Col. Roosevelt or President Taft
but Senator La Toilette is scheduled to
speak in South Dakota. Concern over
the outcome in New Jersey kept the ma
| tional headquarters of the candidates in
Washington open until an early hour this
morning.
Senator Dixon, campaign manager for
Col. Roosevelt. returned to Washington
| from New York today and made the pre-
diction that Col Roosevelt would have
more than 600 delegates on the first ballot
| in the Chicago convention, exclusive of
contested delegates. Included in this
| number. he said. would be more than
| thirty from New York.

tive William B. Mckinley of Illinois, as
serted this morning that the Presidents
actual delegate strength at present was

OnlO or IeXdS. lie was emphatic IN his
prediction of nomination for the Pres

Will Shut Down Headquarters.
The Washington headquarters of all the
republican candidates will close this
week, and managers and their assistants
will establish themselves in Chicago
| Monday for the opening of the battle be-
fore the national convention. The Taft
attorneys. former Senator Dick of Ohio,
and Frederick c. Bryan of Washington,
have completed their defense of all the
cases where the Roosevelt forces are con-
testing delegates. 1t is understood all
briefs and evidence will be filed with Sec
rotary William Hayward, in Chicago, be-
fore tonight.
The attitude of the Taft managers here
indicates that they will lend their full
support to Chairman Harry S. New in
the effort to seat Senator Elihu Root of
New York as temporary chairman of the
convention. 1t is understood that the
Taft forces were not informed of the Sc
lection of Senator Root until after the
latter had accepted Chairman News in
vitation, but have seized what they be-
lieve to be an opportunity to weld to-
gether New Yorks delegates and other
delegations that will support the national

Differ on Representation.

The Roosevelt convention, which held
forth at the place chosen by the exec
utive committee for the state convention,
claimed 1850 counties of the o49 were rep
resented, with vote of 1711e in the first
poll taken. The Taft supporters claimed
to have DOB counties represented, with a
vote, based on a representation of one
vote for every 100 votes cast for Taft in
1905, of LOLA.
One of the purposes of the convention
held by the Taft men was to establish
this basis of representation.
The Roosevelt followers say the appor-
tionment of votes is made in compliance
with the Terrell state election law.
