tCday over the outcome OF the conven-

nad lightning rod pointed to The

was very penetrating thorn in the

The man was Herbert S. Hadley,
governor OF Missouri. floor leader OF
the Roosevelt forces. Hadey has
strongly opposed any suggestion of a

chance OF remaining regular and win

OF the convention. Following the re-

When for more than half an hour the
representatives OF the opposing fac

spectacular efforts of the Roosevelt
men TO turn the demonstration for the
'houn dog state representative into a
personal ovation for the Oyster Bay
candidate, Hadley stock was enjoying
boom today
The Tart men recognize this as was
shown by many of them suggesting
that Hadley was the ideal candidate
for the vice.presidency with President
Taft. They refused to admit there
was chance that the president would
not be renominated. They insisted
that they had the votes for Taft and
would put him over. But the rank
and file of the delegates who want
victory at the polls next November,
and 10 whom the question OF a can
didate is simply the naming of d
man who would have chance to win,
were openly talking Hadley as the
ideal candidate for head OF the ticket.
IL was even reported that some Of
the biggest OF the practical" political
leaders OF the convention were dis.

dropping Taft and making Hadley the
head OF the ticket. While the move was
regarded as a possibility it was gen

CHICAGO, June 20-The hotels are
making the greatest profits since the
worlds fair out of the convention
crowds. All records for attendance at
the Michigan-ave. hostelries were
broken today. Last night the biggest
crowd that has ever packed the lob
bies OF the Congress, moved slowly
through the corridors-and the most
of the male contingent sought the
bar.
/ Manager Burke today estimated
that his hotel entertained $500 per-
sons. Twenty-six bartenders dispensed
good cheer-the largest number ever
on duty at the Congress.
Although the hotel employees are
tagged by extra service and the ex-
element of handling such vast
crowds, they are nearly all making

GRIFFITH DECIDES
TO TRY YOUNGSTERS
ON WESTERN TRIP
Joe Boehling Will Be Given
Chance to Show His
+,'--' Class. e..
By SENATOR"

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Sept. 9.-Now that
the Nationals are virtually out of the
running for the pennant honors in the
American League and have only the
Philadelphia Athletics TO battle for
second place, Manager Griffith means to
try out his youngsters. For that reason
he has changed his original intention Of
having Joe Boehling join the team next
spring. and has had him report now.
He will start the former Richmond
amateur before this trip Is over.
While my team had a chance for the
pennant," said Griff to the writer today.
Il did not feel that l could afford to
take chance. However, 1t looks like
the Red Sox now. and so l am willing
to try out these lads. I'll have just
SO much of jump on next season.
"Boehling did good work lor Worces-
ter this season. Jesse Burkett has writ
ten me about Kid. and says that he
should be a great left-hander some day
when he acquires control and exepri-
ence. The boy is a hard worker and
willing to learn. 1t is more for these
reasons that stand willing to give him
a. trial this season. I think I'll start
him on this trip. perhaps at Cleveland.
It won't do him any harm. 1t may do
him a lot of good"
Howard Shanks seems certain to hold
his, place on the 'outfield for the Ma
tionals against the aggression of both
Roy Moran and Bill Kenworthy. Moran
Is good fielder, and a speedy base
runner, but in all Of these abilities he
has nothing on Shanks. kenworthy has
a weak arm, and is not anywhere near
as fast as the Monaco marvel. Griffith
has about decided to keep Shanks in the
game until he has found a better man
for the garden. Shanks' fielding and
throwing is truer and sharper than that
of either of his rivals, and he should be
. the regular left fielder until a real
slugger is found.
New Style for Shanks.
"It is too late now to experiment.
with Shanks," says Griffith to the
writer. Next year we'll take him in
hand, teach him a style at bat, and
try to make him worth all he should
be. The boy is the most promising g
outhelder 1 have seen in many sea-
sons"
Tonight the Nationals leave at 1l:3n
for Cleveland arriving tomorrow
morning at 7 o'clock. II there Is no
mishap. Walter Johnson or Carl
Cashion will twirl tomorrow against
the rejuvenated Naplanders.
