(COnfinued From Page one) party he would make the race for them. The statement ended all speculation as to his attitude, and rendered plain the plans of the Roosevelt managers to refuse to stand by any action taken for Taft here
 The new party means the end of repub- lean conventions, 1t is believed It Is believed that with Taft and Roosevelt both in the field there is no doubt but what a democrat will surely be elected in November
 The chaos here is beyond imagination To 60 of his most loyal supporters Roose- welt appeared uncertain as to what course to take.
 The bolt bulletin was issued al o'clock It was told exclusively to a few Roosevelt men that a new convention would more than likely be held 30 or 60 days hence That convention, if held, will nominate Roosevelt It is stated on the other hand that the actual physical bolting is only matter of detail to be later worked out.
 Basis for Compromise
 In connection with the bolt of Roose- welt, he was asked to accept few of the alleged stolen delegates on a com promise The Taft men wanted to purge the roll of Washington, Pennsylvania and a IeW olntf SldteS, put fNopSeNelt said a return of a few stolen votes would not suit him. He declared absolutely that unless the alleged fraudulent votes were thrown out he would not recognize the action of the Chicago convention This was refused, hence the long expected ulti- matum.
 Hs dley Asked to Run
 It was tarned today that Governor Hadley had been asked to become the nominee in place of Taft He was told that the Taft men would follow him to preserve. party lines, as would many Roosevelt men. He was asked if he would accept the place at the hands of illegal delegates. At o'clock Governor Hadley said he was unwilling to make a definite statement.

 It is now certain that Taft will be the nominee with, the Roosevelt men else where, or at least taking no part in the proceedings. In a statement exclusively to an Age-Herald representative Gilson Gardner one of the lieutenants of Roose- welt and one of his African party, said Colonel Roosevelt would accept the ale glance of all men who believe In pro- gressiye principles, whether democrats or republicans.

 Alabama Crowd Called In
 The Alabama Roosevelt crowd was called in session this morning and advised of the attitude officially expressed by Colonel Roosevelt. They were told what the tentative programme was, but the vast amount of details were not suffi- ciently prepared to be given out J. o. Thompson, N. l.. Steele and the other Roosevelt men here are blindly loyal to Roosevelt So they are glad the strenu- ous one has not given up, but will go ahead as the progressive candidate The statement of Roosevelt to the Alabama delegation excited no comment, but ere ated considerable apprehension. It is be- lieved that the two factions chiefly in the game for spoils will be interrupted in the engagement of their federal work by dem ocrats March next year.
