OLD SUMNER TIME IS NEAR.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 21.-
Notwithstanding the fact that the
baseball pennant races started more
than two months ago and straw lids
have been worn so long that they are
beginning to look shabby, the summer
season will not begin officially, ac-
cording to the almanac, until this
afternoon at 2:O9 eastern time.
Incidentally today will be the long
est day in the year. With the
inclusion of dawn and the twilight the
total amount of daylight will amount
to nearly 16 hours. Today, the
earth will reach its shortest distance
from the sun during its annual trav-
els around its orbit, and will then be-
gin it's march from the luminary,
reaching its greatest distance from
the sun on December 81.

CHICAGO, June 21.-The conven-
tion is now in session and will spend
the afternoon in roll calls.
The report on the Alabama contest
ed seats first came up on a motion
to accept the findings of the creden-
tials committee.
The Roosevelt people entered a pro
test and the hour occupied in debate
and roll call resulted in favor of Taft
and the credentials committee report.
The Roosevelt men announced they
would go down the line in the same
manner for every state.
If they do this the convention can
not be organized until Monday.
The convention took a recess after
the Alabama roll call and came to-
gether again at 8 o'clock.
There is only languid interest in
the proceedings. The hall is not filled

COMPLETE DETAILS OF
CONVENTION BATTLE

CHICAGO, Ill.,, June 20.-This is to
be the day of large events. The con-
vention opened promptly at II o'clock,
but before it was called to order the
preliminary arrangements for a com
promise began.
Roosevelt, upon being assured that
he had Taft beaten, released all his
delegates so they could vote for can
didate who would take the convention
from the president.
This compromise is now thought to
be Cummins.
1t is expected this afternoon that
Taft will withdraw his name and al
low the convention to choose candi-
date acceptable to all.
Many Roosevelt men insist on bolt
but Teddy, himself, frowns this down.
His highest purpose, he says, is to de-
feat the man who has been false in not
following the policies outlined and
agreed uopn when nominated for pres
ident four years ago.

Colonel Harry S. New, chairman of
the committee on arrangements, that
he notified Stuart Spalding of the Col

will hold its option on the building for
all of next week.
why will the convention reed the
Coliseum for so long time?" Colonel
New was asked.
Because, as we figure now, the
convention may not adjourn before

"our contract requires us to leave the
building as we found it and it will
take about two days to do that part
of the work, so you see we will need

that have occurred will make adjourn

CHICAGO, June Ex-Governor
Hadley says the Alabama and Ari-
zona contests will be reported at once
to the convention and he will renew
his motion that none of the seventy
eight contested delegates be permitted
to vote. That Root will rule against
him and he will appeal and ask for
roll call.
The convention had not opened at
l1:45, three quarters of an hour after
the time set. There was no crush Of
eager spectators before the entrances
to the Coliseum today and even a part
of the army of assistant sergeants at
arms had deserted. Ten minutes be-
fore the time for the convention to
start not more than fifty of the dele
gates had taken their places on the
platform almost deserted. The dele
gates came slowly to their places until
an hour had passed after the time set
for resuming the session found practi-
cally all of them present. Ten min
utes passed after the appointed time
for order.
A woman in blue came to the front
and center of the remote band stand
TO introduce novelty song. The del
egates soon learned that the fair
singer who sought to sooth the savage
breast by singing "On Moonlight Bay"
was Miss Flo jacobson. The New Jer-
sey delegates started first to cheer.
With its now famous war cry, Okla
homa followed. California came aext,
and then the band played.
A woman in white who came to the
front gallery seats armed with flags
and other agents for the promotion of
enthusiasm, was the object of atten-
ton, Somebody told the leaders she
had second edition of the last big
Roosevelt demonstration ready for the
springing. The New Jersey delega-
tion began the noise making by get
ting up in their places and giving the
state yell. West Virginia took up the
challenge for a showing of vocal pow
er, and California added her whoop.
AT noon Root is preparing to call
the body to order.
CHICAGO, June 21.-Followers of
Theodore Roosevelt are in active re-

This outline of his plans was givcr
today by one of the leaders till 10y a

IF the convention purg.s is roll
of tainted delegates, then there will
be no bolt, no matter VINO the nomI-

"If the convention indorses tue ac-
ton of the Republican national COM
mittee, the Roosevelt leaders will no
tify the convention they refuse to rec

bound by any action the convention
may take.
"There will be no actual bolt, al
though there is possibility that some
of the far western states may leave
the hall.
"A plan of passive resistance will be
followed by many of the Roosevelt
delegates. They will not vote on mo-

the work of the convention.

the theory that Colonel Roosevelt: is a
dead candidate for the regular Repub-

Taft members of the credentials com

sisted upon running the steam roller
over his corpse.
After an all night session the COM

tied only fourteen of the seventy-two
contests, considered by Governor Had
ley and Roosevelt leaders in their ap-
peal from the decisions of the national

All of them, with twenty that the

Persistent rumors that Colonel Roose-

structed for him was current through
out the forenoon. These rumors were
given an impetus by Ex-Governor r.
II. Post of Porto Rico, a close friend
of Roosevelt, who on emerging from
the colonel's headquarters, declared:
Colonel Roosevelt had gotten out of
Hadley's way" But Finn of Penn
sylvania denied these reports.
At noon he said: Have just left
Colonel Roosevelt and any report that
he has released delegates instructe
for him is false assertion"
A report was also circulated that
Taft had authorized Senator Crane
to release the Taft delegates to the
national Republican convention fol
lowing Colonel Roosevelt's alleged
action in releasing his.
President Taft Immediately wired a
denial of the report.
Senator Crane also denied having
made any such statement.
