TAFT CAUSE THR|VES
AS REAL FIGHT BEGINS
All Sections of the Nation Join in
Offering Support to Campaign
for denomination.
SUPPORTERS RALLY TO-DAY
Lincoln Anniversary to Witness
Vigorous Speeches by Taft
Here and by Other Lead
ers Elsewhere.
tBy Telegraph 10 The Tribuns.I

Washington, Feb. ia food Of offers
of support coming from all sections OF
the country indicate that Chairman Nc
Kinley of the newly organized Taft
headquarters in Washington has hard
work ahead to catch up with the nove-
ment for the denomination Of the Presi-
dent. which he purposes 10 push forward
aggresSively.
Already eighteen delegates, all that
have been chosen thus far, have been in
structed for Taft. the last two added to
the list being those Of the District of
Columbia Reports of preliminary work
in various states make ii certain that
tire list will be heightened rapidly.
At the same time, the opening Of head
quarters in Washington and Chicago will
undoubtedly accentuate the strength OF
the movement TO which the Lincoln Day
speeches to be delivered in various parts
Of the country will give an impetus. The
week will mark the real beginning OF
the pre-convention campaign.
The President will leave the capital at
4 o'clock tomorrow morning for New
ark and Orange, y. j., and New York
City. His principal speech will be deliv-
cred at the Lincoln Day dinner of the
Republican Club at the Waldorf, in New
York. Attorney General Wickersham
will deliver a speech in Wisconsin Sena-
tor Lodge will speak at Springfield.
There was general exodus OF Sena-
tors and Representatives from wash
,rgton to-day. Most of them VIII ap-
near at similar celebrations.
The results Of the week all point to
the gathering force Of the Taft move
ment. In Georgia the Republican State
Committee passed strong Taft resolu-
tions, and Fulton County elected Taft
delegates to the coming state conven-
tlon. The Republican committee OF
Glvnn County went on record as favor
ing the Presidents denomination.
Virginia has proceeded so far in the
preliminary work as to justify the pre-
diction of a solid Taft delegation from
that state. During the week just ended
Norfolk county anu Nily tiSNNCu NSfS
gates to state and dist.1t conventions,
unanimously instructing them to sup
port President Taft. Stafford, Pulaski
and Russell counties took similar ac-
ton.
The Mississippi State Committee adopt
cd resolutions declaring that the dele
CATION from that state should vote
unanimously for the denomination Of
President Taft. Every Mississippi coun-
ty which has held delegate conventions
has instructed for the President.
Each of the twelve counties of the 1st
District of Tennessee has Endorsed the
President for denomination and re-elec-
ton. The story to the effect that the
Republican Central Committee of Ten
nessee had refused to go on record as
favoring the Presidents denomination
was effectively disproved by the reso-
,ution unanimously adopted at Knoxville

ATTACK ON RETUAL|SM
UP TO BISHOP GREER
Charges Against the Rector Of
St. Pau's, Staten Island,
Will Be Filed To-day.
CIVIL SUIT MAY FOLLOW
Services Conducted by the Rev.
G.. L. Wallis Said Not To Be
Authorized by the Book Of
Common Prayer.

The differences existing between the
Rev. Guy L. Wallis, rector Of st. Paurs
Episcopal Church, Tompkinsville, Staten
Island, and the heirs Of the giver of
the church property are rapidly ap-
preaching a climax. Yesterday one hun
dred members of tho church, which is
the Oldest on Staten Island, formally
presented to the rector, vestry and war
dens a statement of their position. This
was done in compliance with the Church
law. To-day charges will be filed with
Bishop Greer, to await his action.
The statement was signed by some
parishloners who were formerly vestry-
men in st. Pauls, all of them above
sixteen years of age" according TO the
wording Of the papers. II was said thai
there were not enough male communi-
cants remaining in the parish to elect a
new vestry.
There were seventeen charges appended
to the statement, fifteen Of which con-
cerned alleged violations of Episcopal
Church law and two of them relating
TO alleged improper conduct on the part
of the Rev. Mr.. Wallis. In the event OF
Bishop Greer failing TO take action on
the charges, 1t was said yesterday that
4 civil suit would be brought for the re-
coyery of the church property.
The movement to remove the rector Of
the church began on January ~ las''
when Edward VANITY. a former vestry-
man. son-in-law Of the late Albert
Ward. who gave the property TO the
church. brought charges against the
Rev. Mr.. Wallis. He stated that the
rector had refused TO allow him to cast
his vote at the annual meeting ha1
tried 10 introduce ritualistic Ideas and
had otherwise violated the provisions or
the Ward will. which provided that II
ar anv time the rector should depart
from the prescribed Episcopalian ritual
in his conduct Of the church he should
be Immediately deposed from his once
and the property should revert TO his
heirs.

her socially and who heard her ad-
dress the convention. The baroness
possesses, with strong intellect. a
charming personality; having dig
nifty and splendid poise with the
gift of speaking, accumulated in
charm by a slight foreign accent.
Mrs. Victor Pennybacler, of Aus
tin, Texas, president of the General
Federation of Womens Clubs, who
was a special guest Of the conyen-
ton, charmed the gathering by her
splendid grasp of club matters and
by her winning personality. A frail
slight figure, Mrs. Pennybacker
when speaking, shows a splendid
command of language and a force

by the Atlanta Woman's club in
honor of the convention Mrs. Pen
