SUFFRAG|STS PLAN BIC DEMONSTRATION
Mack Says He Does Not
 Know Who New York Delegation FavOrs

Baltimore, June 14.-Baltimore women srffragists are planning a big parade on Thursday evening of democratic presiden- tial convention, as a demonstration to the delegates and the leaders. Whether the suffraglsts will make an effort to ob- tain the incorporation of suffrage plank in the democratic platform was not known toright This afternoon the national com mitteemen were visited by a delegation of women representing the Women's Ma ticnal Democratic league, who volun- teered their services in the coming cam paIgn. Chairman Mack told the commit tee, which came over from Washington, that he would try to arrange seats for them in the convention.
 The national committee spent the day arranging details of the convention and employing staffs of minor officials. An emergency hospital is to be established in the convention hall and there will be a corpse of 40 or 50 physicians. Talking of the. 90 votes which New York will cast in the convention, Chairman Mack as a member of the delegation said to- night:
 ',The New York delegation as you know, is uninstructed and will vote as a unit, but just who will be the fayorite I must admit I don't know
 Mir. Mack said he had not heard of the report that the New York, Illinois and Indiana delegations would join forces to make the nomination.

HIATT MANAGERS ARE ||NF FLAN|ED BY l. R.'S START FOR CHICAGO | Is Surest Possible Sign of
 Desperation, They Say
 MIR. TAFT TO GET ALL REMAINING CONTESTS Will Be No Triumphal Entry Into Chicago-The Colonel Will Speak
 at a Mass Meeting on
 Monday Night

Addition by the republican national committee of IA delegates from Alas ka, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Tennessee to the Credited to Taft" list, and, announcement that Roosevelt had started for Chicago, constituted the concrete development of the politi- cal situation up to late hour last night.
 What may be MT. Roosevelt's definite intentions in his sudden, and, to some extent unexpected, journey to Chicago, no person but himself knows. The most definite assertion his adher- ents made was that his underlying in tent was to deal personally with the federal officeholders.
 The general impression at midnight was that the Taft majority in the national convention had adopted an uncompromising attitude toward the contests, and that the Roosevelt peo- pie could expect little at their hands. Senator Dixon was given to this view, before the Taft headquarters gave out a table of their claims of delegates, including all of the delegates from the districts not yet passed upon by the committee.
