 Chicago, June io--The actu- al fight IS on at last after months of preparation, and no- body, not even the most astute politicians in America, where more than anywhere else on earth politics have been devel- oped into a fine art, can even hazard a likely guess as to who the winner will be. The factional fight is the bitterest the country has ever seen, life long political friends and as- sOciates are here representing different ranks and cliques in the party. Everywhere men are of the opinicn hat the del. egates hold i'll their hands the fate of the Grand Old Republi- can party.
 Manager Mckinley of the Taft forces claims that Taft has clear majority of half hun dred, while Nixon of the other side says his man has enough and twelve to spare to nomin- ate him on the first ballot. The convention hall has been surrounded by a high plank fence, and 800 of Chicago's best in the way of policemen have been detailed to see that order is maintalne..
 Everything is chaotic when at 10:I5 the doors of the hall were opened, and the deleg l 'es began to arrive slowly. Not q picture of any one of the ca l. dates appears on the walls. I vast difference to The cOnven- ton of four years ago. when = twenty foot picirr, of Win. II. Taft confronted iic delegates as they entered the hall. The delegates took their places ab- solutely quietly, with no buf- lfoonery, and no applause.
 At 12:10 Victor Rosewater, chairman of the protest con- mittee called the convention to order. Instantly Governor Had ley was on his feet wi.h a mo- ton to submit a new iempor- ary roll of delegates in place of that to be submitted by the the national committee. Rose water allowed each side twenty minutes in which to argue, and then simply denied the motion. Rosewater then nom- mated Root for temporary chairman, McGovern Roose- velt's choice was then named.
 Seconding speeches in pro- fusion followed, and then came a motion that voting be done by roll call of each individual delegate by name. At three twenty this motion was carried and the voting started.
 Many Roosevelt delegates cast their votes for Root, and by small majority he was de- clared elected, and the choice of the convention for it's chair man.
 Roosevelt is directing opera tions from his room in the ho- tel by special line of telephone.

 ihe vote on the temporary
 chairman of the convention has Just been announced, it stood
 ooS for Root to 5I2 for Me- Hovern. It took close to an
 hour for order to be restored after the vote was counted and then MT. Root was escorted to the platform, and in a great ad- dress called upon the delegates
 to forget factional and private differences and unite for the perpetuation and honor of the
 Republican party.
 Following this speech, re- ceived with difference by both factions, other temporary off cers were appointed, and then the convention adjourned until eleven this morning.
 "Wednesday morning. Gov ernor Hadley, immediately af- ter the convention was called to order today introduced a motion to substitute a list of 9S Roosevelt men in place of that submitted by the commit tee on protests, as delegates
 rom the contested states. Bv agreement three hours were al- lowed each side to present it's phase of the case. Hadley lead off by calling the action of the committee naked theft espec- tally with regard to the dele gatlons from California, Tex as and Washington. Others fol lowed for both sides. During the debate Hadley went up on the platform to watch the floor.
 While he was standing there, James Watson, who was lead ing the debate for the Taft for ces ran up the steps of the platform and demanded in a voice that could be held all ov- CT the hall, demanded of Had ley if he had not had enough argument, concluding with, " believe now that Gov. Hadley will allow the question to be decided by the committee on credentials. Before Hadley could answer Gov. Stubbs of Kansas with the delegates of that state with him started the cry "We want Teddy" Illin- ois took it up, followed by hun dreds of others in various parts of the hall and gallery, and for a while it looked as though the stampede so feared by the Taft forces had begun. To head it off New York and Indiana fol- lowed by the rest of the Taft vote started a procession around the hall with banners waving and all shouting and yelling to smother the "We want Teddy" slogan. Pandamonium contln- ued for three quarters of an hour. and the chair has but
 just succeeded in clearing the aisles of the marchers and m restoring order.
 The situation continues more complex than ever, Sam Blythe says today that two conventions are sure, while Hadley and ot- her Roosevelt leaders won countenance bolt. Cnmmlns men claim that they have 1oo votes pledged for him on 'he second ballot.

second ballot. Roosevelt con- tinues optimistic.

Idue ycStcfudS diooiliooh, Do' egate Colman of Missouri pro- posed three cheers for Cover nor Haclley, the next president of the United States. Men pledg ed to all the different candi- dates, in every part of the hall jumped to their feet and on to the chairs cheering wildly, Taft men, Roosevelt men, Gum mings men and LaFollette men all joined in with a will, and the demonstration lasted for fully thirty minutes. Hadley was on the platform at the time and laughingly bowed his ac- Acknowledgement of the honor they were paying him.
 When quietness was at length restored, Chairman Root an- nOunced that the vote on the motion to substitute the names IOf 02 Roosevelt men for that many Taft supporters in the re- port of the committee on prt,- tests. Before the vote could be taken, Gov. Deneen moved that the delegates contested should not be allowed to vote c'l the motion affecting them. \ mo- ton was then made to table i'c- neen's motion. A roll call was called for on the motion to la ble, which was put, the affect ed delegates being allowed to vote, and the result was the mo- ton was tabled and both the motion and the amendment af- fecting the standing of the del- egates were both killed, and the matter of eligibility of del- gates is left entirely 10 the committee on credentials, a working majority of which is composed of lTaft man, so the result can be but the one way.
 After this vote was taken the conv ention adjourned till noon today.
 At, two o'clock this morning Roosevelt announced that il wasi plainly evident that the committee on credentials had int entions of deciding the mat ter on it's merits, and had re- flu sed to give a full hearing on each of the contests but would bunch them, so he called all his men out of the committee.
 When they heard of Roose- velt's action, Francis Heney and Gov. Johnson both declar- ed that they were ready to bolt today. Johnson continuing said that the next thirty-six hours would see the birth of new Republican party, which would nominate and elect Col. Roosevelt. A caucus of tho Roosevelt delegates was taken this morning which resulted in a unanimous vote to walk oul if the convention continued to be controlled by the Taft for ceS.
 When the committee on ere dentials reconvened this morn- ing, the Roosevelt men who had withdrawn during the all- night session returned and re- newed the fight, and the major ny 0t the committee prepafel it's report making the temper ary organization permanent The report was adopted by the convention, whereupon the Col ifornlan delegation preparni, 3 statement withdrawing f
