line Of lighting that will be carried into
the convention. The Tart leaders. &C.
cordins to reports from various sources
had decided to USE their claimed ma.
1ority Of the committee to seat Taft
delegates In nearly all OF the many con.
tests.
Senator Boics Penrose Of Pennsylvania
and several other Taft leaders expressed
eaxerness to get down 20 the actual work
OF hearing contests late to-day. 1t Is
possible that the first contests on the
list. those from Alabama. will BIO called
before night.
This change N the original plan.
which limited to-day's opening session
to matters Of organization. was the re-
suit OF Informal conferences At which
II became apparent that the work of
organization In the National Committee
would take but an hour or two.
The mass OF contest cases confronting
the committee. Involving the rights Of
more than go delegates TO seats. has
convinced msnbsrs that unusual moas-
ures will be necessary to dispose OF
them all before the National Convsn-
ton meets June IL.

fornia cases the Taft contest In the
Fourth District 10 directed primarily
against the California Secretary Of
State. who refused to Issue certificates
to Taft delegates who received majors
ties In that district. HIS action. II II
understood, was based on the ground
that the State at large had indicated
a preference for Col. Roosevelt.
On the question Of open or closed
sessions. the committee tentatively
agreed to admit representatives Of the
press.
A conference betwe members Of the
National Committee from Southern
