NOW BELIEVE TAFT
Is SURE WINNER
Politicians in Capital Think the
Presidents Strength
Will Grow.

New York. June 1s.-The Sun will say
tomorrow:
In administration circles and among
politicians generally in washington the
decisive triumph of Senator Elihu Root
over Gov. McGovern for temporary chair
man OF the Chicago Republican Conven-
tion indicates the certain triumph OF
President Taft over all opposition at
Chicago by a majority Of from fifty TO
seventy-fve.
The test strength on the temporary
chairmanship was the most favorable
contest to the anti-Tsft forces that they
have invited. They evidently realized
this when they forced Gov. McGovern
into the fight. BY so doing they Sc
cured from forty to fifty votes that will
not be cast for Col. Roosevelt on the
first ballot and may never go to him.
1t is true they lost a few votes on the
temporary chairmanshlp that are under
instructions to vote for Roosevelt.
The Presidents friends believe the
fight has been won and that President
Taft's denomination will follow logically.
They believe that from this time for
ward the Taft strength Will increase.

DIXON FIGURES
SPELL VICTORY
Roosevelt's Manager Says Vote on
Chairman Showed Weakness
of Taft Forces.

Chicago, June 1S-When asked for a
statement tonight regarding the vote
on temporary chairman. Senator Dixon
said:
I'VE have them whipped. The vote this
afternoon proves It. 1t demonstrates be-
yond a doubt the impossibility Of Taft's
nomination. 1t takes $40 votes 20 nom
mate. Mr.. Root received for temporary
chairman 55s votes. In this vote were
included seven votes from Illinois in
structed in the primary for Mr.. Roose-
elt and these delegates have already
announced their intention 10 carry out
their instructions"
In Maryland, where the entire delega-
ton Of sixteen were instructed for Mr..
Roosevelt in the primaries, eight dele
gates to-day voted for Mr.. Root for
temporary chairman. In Oregon. where
the entire ten votes are instructed for
Roosevelt for President. three delegates
to-day voted for Root. In Pennsylvania
four delegates instructed in the primaries
for Roosevelt voted for Mr.. Root for
temporary chairman, feeling that the
primary instructions did not bind them
in the matter OF temporary chairman.
This makes a total Of twenty-five dele
gates from the primary States who have
openly announced that they will vote for
Mr.. Roosevelt.
These twenty-five votes deducted from
the 55s votes cast for Mr. Root for tenn
porary chairman leaves only 536 votes
for Mr. Taft, being four short Of ma
jority
Besides these instructed Roosevelt
delegates from the primary States there
are delegates from at least six other
States who voted for Mr.. Root to-day
who are openly avowed Roosevelt dele
gates, and who will vote for his nomi-
nation.
The above figures take no account Of
the fact that commencing tomorrow
we will present the cases Of the dele
gates fraudulently seated by the Ma
tional Committee from California, Wash
ington, Arizona, Texas, Alabama, Ken
lucky, Indiana. and other States, ag-
gregating upward Of seventy-five dele
gates, to a new court in the shape Of
a credentials committee and beyond that

must be finally adopted by the conven-
ton itself"
