1:00-Convention was called to or der at noon. On motion a recess was taken until p. m., to await report of Credentials Committee. Roosevelt conference set for p. m. One man from each delegation to meet with Colonel. All night session predicted. 1:27-Number of contested dele gates reduced to 50 by action of Roosevelt leaders in dropping Louisi- ana, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi and Virginia cases
 1:3S-Motion to seat Roosevelt del egates from Ninth Alabama district lost, IA to 34.
 1:49-Committee on Organization voted, 21 to ', to make temporary or ganization permanent Minority mem- bers promptly left room. Twenty-four members absent
 Likelihood that convention will de- lay work to allow excited members to be calmed is discussed. Hadley favors fighting it out on the floor.
 When the Credentials Committee assembled this morning to take up the contests, Roosevelt men unexpected ly appeared to take part in the pro ceedings.
 Only 32 of the 52 members of the committee were present when the men. Hugh Halbert of Minnesota and l.. N. Mitchell of Pennsylvania were the two Roosevelt men first to ap- pear In the committee room. Francis J. Heney and the majority Of the other Roosevelt men were not pres ent when the committee met Mir Halbert and MT. Mitchell joined in making the following statement:
 we feel that the action taken last night by the minority members has resulted in giving us fairly good set of rules and free and open dis cussion with the presentation of any new evidence that may not have been heard by the National Committee, We are going to stick to the committee.
 "We forced the adoption of fair rules"
 Delay, uncertainty and possible se- rious disorder faced the delegates as the third session of the Republican national convention opened. The quick succession of events late last night and early today left a condi- tion of absolute confusion. Even the wisest of party strategists did not this morning profess to see into the situation that would rise after Chair man Roots gavel fell at noon for the resumption of the convention sessions.
 With Colonel Roosevelt calling upon his followers to disregard the Gre dentials Committee and organize for themselves and with the Taft leaders comforting with the friends of pos sible third candidates, the air was electric in suggestion of heretofore unexpected complications.
 Close Watch on the Hot Headed.
 A number of conferences of officials of the convention and party leaders were held to prevent just such an outcome as this, if possible. Moder- ate members on both sides of the fight between Roosevelt and the pres ident joined in efforts to hold off threatened physical trouble. At the

AN INTERESTING
LETTER FROM
FRONT"
W. D. Zook Tells of Excitement on
Mexican Border and Details Many
Features in a Letter Written
to Charles Quist Here.
FL Paso, Tex, March IA.

FL Paso, Tex, March IA.
Dear Mr.. Quist.
Talk about excitement: they GER
tainly are having lots of ii down here
now. The town of Ell Paso is Mex
leo itself. All the wealthy class OF
Mexicans and Spanish people from
northern Mexico twhere they are
having trouble with the insurrectosl
have come to FL Paso. Every hotel
in the city is full to overlooking.
Here in the Sheldon tonight there are
fully 800 or more promenading in
the lobby, and all talking at once.
IL sounds more like a big flock
geese.
Mrs. Quist certainly would enjoy
the display of millinery and gowns
worn by the Spanish women, as their
styles are entirely different from that
of the Americans; and talk about la
dies hats!-they certainly have the
Americans beat for hne headgear /
notice quite number of women
wearing those high-crown hats that
run to a cone point-almost the
shape of an ice-cream cone. The full
crown is covered with black silk, and
they are all hand painted with roses,
etc. Others have large willow
plumes draping down from the cone
point over the hand-painted crowns.
Others have the crowns furnished
with lace and silk flowers worked in
to the laces in colors. And for
shawls, most all of the elderly Span
ish women have great, large shawls,
all trimmed in fine laces, from the
plain black to all the colors of the
rainbow. The whole sight looks like
a grand millinery opening in some
big bazaar
Every train coming up from the
south out Of Mexico that can get
through is loaded to the limit with
Spanish people getting out of the
trouble zone.
The old town of Juarez. south OF
Ell Paso, is almost deserted, as most
all of the population has come across
the river to Ell Paso under the pro-
lection of the United States.
The United States has about 1000
soldiers camped up and down the
river front. No doubt if it were not
for the display of force made by the
United States here. there would be
lots of trouble all along the border
line.
The rebels, as they call themselves,
are In possession of Juarez. They
have about 1000 soldiers guarding
the old town, and have their flag

raised over all the larger buildings
there. The rebel flag is a large
square flag, made of bright red silk
The American soldiers call the reb-
els Reds" They have been trying
to smuggle guns and ammunition
across the border, but the United
States soldiers won't allow them to
get over. They are compelled to use
the bridges, as the Rio Grande is too
high to ford and they cannot use
boats because the soldiers would de
tect them.
The rebels are up against it. They
have a world of guns and ammuni-
tion bought and all the consignments
are here at Ell Paso, but the United
States will not allow them to be
moved. The chances are that, by
holding them up here. it will give
the Madero government ample time
to get a big army of federal soldiers
up here and cut them off before they
can arm themselves.
Everything down here is nice and
green-all the same as summertime.
Trusting this will md yourself and
family in good health, with best
wishes, | am

LONG LOST LETTERS.
Mailed Over Two Years Ago, Found

BROOKLYN, Nov. Is Especially A package
Oh letters mailed two years ago last July
was found last week in rock pile beside
a private roadway here.
Rodney Allen and Haskell Powers we're
repairinga causeway on Miss Jennie Coles
property when they found large pack
age OF letters wedged in between some
rceks. The letters we're in a good state
OF preservation.
They bad been placed in the star route
Dag In July, 1910. Miss Cole runs a
summer hotel, "Tamerick Lodge" and
the letters were mostly written by be-
guests. One of the letters, addres sed
abroad, was rather bulky, and evidently
had been tempered with. -Four or five Of
the letters had been opened. One letter,
containing check for 1900, had been
opened, but the contents were intact.
Miss Cole had written note to Post
master T. c. Stanley and placed it in u
sealed envelope, with 10 cents which she
owed him. The money was gone, but the
note was left
Robbery seems to have been the motive,
but the denomination OF the check found
was evidently too large to risk taking,
and the other letters opened were only Of
a correspondence nature. 1t may have
been that the mail-csrrier came too soon,
and frightened the miscreants way, as the
bag is placed on the crane only about If
teen or twenty minutes before the carrier
is due.i
Miss Cole has written to the postoffice
department asking what to do with these
letters, which she now holds.
