WEST VIRGINIA TO REMAIN
SILENT In THE cow NTION
VII Not Vote for Any One
for President When the
Roll is Called.
SOME TO STRAY OFF
From the Party While Others
VIII Stick to the
Ship.

CHICAGO, June 22-West Vir-
ginians here realize that the de-
termination of Roosevelt to nave a
presidential nomination on some
ticket or other means the carrying
with him into a new party Of many
who hitherto have been good Re
pnblicans. 1t may, also take with
him some who have been Demo-
Gratis. The foEmer presidents pres
ent Intention is to have convention
to assemble either in Chicago or
Pittsburg within a month or six
weeks and start new party.
Then will come the test with the
colonei's followers. They will have
to determine then whether to re-
main with the Republican party or
to remain with Roosevelt. Among
those here now it is practically GER
tain that General Elliott, Frank H.
Tyree, W. s. Edwards, possibly
Governor Glasscock and others will
elect to leave the Republican party
entirely and proclaim themselves
MEMBERS of the new party, which
probably will be designated "the
Progressive Party" Some of the
others of the delegation here prob
ably will go along, but the majority
OF them will stick by the old ship
which has weathered many a storm.
one of the more enthusiastic
Roosevelt men today stated that he
believed Roosevelt would be able to
carry every district in West vir-
ginfa but the Fifth. another sad
that he had offered to bet that If
Taft is re-nominated he will not
carry FIVE states in the union.
The program for today with the
West Virginia delegates is to sit 81
lent when the roll is called for the
nomination for president and not
vote for anyone. The name Of
Roosevelt will not be presented to
the convention, and the West Vir-
ginians will not vote Tor any one
else.
Practically all the Roosevelt dele
gates are to follow the same course:
although those delegates from Mary
laid and illinois who were Taft men
but instructed for Roosevelt will be
free to vote for Taft if Roosevelt is
not candidate and will swell the
presidents majority in the conven-
ton.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
will run special train leaving here
tonight for Baltimore, carrying none
but newspaper men. The starting
time will be as soon as possible after
the nomination of candidate for
president.
william j. Bryan is thf only re-
porter in the 100 or more who will
be on the train that has engaged a
drawing room.

CONVENTION HAdlL, CHICAGO,
June 22-It was an irritable crowd
OF delegates that assembled at the
coliseum for what promised to be
three sessions of the Republican ma
tional convention today. Many del
egates were preparing to leave Chica-
go tonight, and the leaders had ar
ranged a program which included
adjournment tonight unless some un-
expected development on the con-
vention floor made a recess until
next week necessary.
With Colonel Roosevelt out of the
fight in this convention and the re-
nomination Of President Taft ap-
parently foregone conclusion, in
terest conferred in the platform, vice
president and what Roosevelt would
do after the convention adjourns.
Restiessness was apparent on
every hand and there were many
expressions that much of the delay
was unnecessary.
The convention was called to or
der at ,1O:43 o'clock this morning
with the hope but no certainty of
adjournment before daylight Sun
day.
Dr. John Wesley Hill, president
of the International Peace Forum,
delivered the prayer today before
the convention. He spoke as fol-
lows:
20, Thou Who stitch upon the
circle of the heavens. unto Whom
all things come in beauty and per-
lection, we approach Thee, sup
ported by the memories of past
mercies, encouraged BY the tokens
of Thy love, lured by the light of
Thy word, and strengthened by the
inspiration of Thy spirit.
''We thank Thee that unto us Thy
glory has been revealed, that upon
us Thy knowledge has dawned,
while about us are the manifesto
lions of that providence which Is
imminent in the affairs of the
world.
Eve praise Thee for Thy enriph-
ing blessings; for the laws which
are in league with us and the forces
which are our friends; for the
wealth of mountains and that more
real of the generous soil; for the
products of the field and forest and
far resounding sea; for home and
school and sanctuary; for flag and
country; for light and liberty and
life; and above all, for the revela-
ton of Thyself in the face Of Jesus

LONG PLATFORM TALK

CHICAGO. June 22.-After getting
under way in an effort to wind up-
its business today the Republican
national convention was forced to
halt and mark time by delay in re-
ports from the credentials commit,
tee. The convention worked steadily
SO long as material for It's proceed
ings was Forthcoming, ana a dozen
or mere contests were put through
under the gayel. In each case TAFT
delegates were seated.
Chairman Root ran the reports on
contests through easily and rapidly
despite the frequent outbufsts Of
disorder. He smiled PLEASANTLY as
he announced the result of each viva
voce vote, Shortly before noon the
convention caught up with the COM
mittee, and amused itself by singing,
cheering, jeering steam roller" and
listening to the band.
The platform committee com
plotted its work ard adjourned soon
after noon. The principal discussion
was on whether the tariff resolution
could include a specific recognition
of the fact that certain dut les were
/ Ugh with plea for their reduction.
Action taking such recognition was
taken.
After making preliminary arrange
ments for the organization Of new
party Roosevelt today definitely sew
cred his relations with the Republic
can national convention. In "a state
mcnt setting forth his position, he
said that since the convention refused
to remove delegates who he contends
are fraudulent he could not recognize
It's authority He urged his dele
gates to refrain from voting in the
convention, although stating that in
case they did vote he could not free
them from their obligation to vote
for him.

Collins was invincible after sec

Detroit scored five times in

Cobb whacked four hits in two
