New York, June 30.-The first step
toward the organization in New York
state of the new party launched in
Chicago by supporters of Theodore
Roosevelt was taken today by City
Comptroller William A. Prendergast,
appointed to represent his state on the
committee formed in Chicago.
He laid the cause before the people
today in an address in which he said:
IT submit this appeal to men of all
parties and men who have had no pre-
vious political affiliations. In the name
of the already great number who have
expressed their approval of new po-
litical party, ask republicans and DEM
oorats to enroll themselves in defense
of honesty in political work and the
advocacy of genuine principles of po-
iitical social and industrial reform.
This new party will not be the result
of any sudden judgment passed upon
the high handed acts of the republican
national committee and the discredit-
able work of the republican national
convention The acts of that conven-
ton have rendered it necessary that a
new party shall be started, but the
purpose the new movement will serve
is one toward which the hearts of mil
lions of mep have been directed in the
past few years. new party Is a

claring his reasons for remaining away
from Baltimore during the convention.
He said:
'Tt would manifestly be very nearly

This was to set at rest a movement
begun several days ago by the gov
ernor's friends to have him appear be-
fore the convention. AS to the general
situation, Governor Wilson said: my

on being shown a statement in Sum
day papers that the Wilson managers
had failed to arrange with leaders of
the New York delegation for the votes
of New York. Governor Wilson dictated
the following:
"of course l do not know in detail

nothing that could not be done In view
of the whole country and that their
only means of getting support is argu-
ment. There cannot by any possibility
be any trading done in my name; not
a single vote can or will be obtained
by means of any promise"

CHINA HAS TROUBLE
IN GETTING LOAN

London, June 30.--The Picking cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph says
that China absolutely rejects the de-
mands of the six-power group which
were that the loan must be $500. 900, 900
that three European financial super
yisors must be appointed. and that the
group must have its financial agents
In China for five months, during which
there would be no issue of bonds and
no business of any kind involving the
pledging of China's credit without the
supervisors signatures. China's counter
proposal Is simply for $50, 900
loan.
The correspondents strongly protest
that the group is making deliberate
attempt to secure monopoly and using
the supervisors as a mere blind, and
says that the whole business discloses
many unpleasant features.
