received its garland and by nlghtfall
the cemetery was bower OF flowers.
1t Is safe to say that yesterdays ef-

visited the grounds. The flowers
kept we'll and made one mass of

WANAMAKER SENDS
|. SECOND|NG SPEECH
WEST BY WIRELESS
Delayed In Reaching Home
From Tour Abroad
BY Strike.

NEW YORK, June 19.-Before leaving
the liner Kaiser Wilhelm II for his
special train race with Edmund B. Os-
borne, Of New York, to the Chicago
convention, John Wanamaker sent by
wireless draft of his speech seconding
the nomination Of Taft. 1t was to be
delivered by mis- alternate II he did not
arrive In time.
Wanamaker is speeding westward to-
day on a Pennsylvania special, while
Osborne an ardent Roosevelt hacker, is
dashing toward Chicago on a New York
Central special. Wanamaker got away
about an hour in the lead. Both were
booked to sail from Europe on the
liner France, which was held up by a
strike and both came in late last night
on the Kaiser.
wanamakers wireless speech fol-
lows:
THE eyes of the whole world rest to-
day upon this convention. The Republic
OF America mas been for 1876 years the
star of hope. Frightening the sea in its
successful progress, without heritage to
rulership.
William H. Taft holds the certificate
Of ability volunteered to him in calmer
moments. He has worthiiy served the
| term OF four years of hard labor in this
supreme office.
He has gained in fitness and is better
prepared today than ever to conduct the
affairs OF the 9S, 5000 of shareholders
Il second his nomination for the
Presidency for two reasons. to which l
can personally vouch:
First, that radical changes in the
Administration mean further depression
and losses to labor.
Second. uncertainty and Instability in
the conduct of public affairs means dis
| tress and decentralization in business.
| William II. Taft. in my opinion. is
| much more qualified than any other
I man In sight to take charge amid the
| confusions and delusicns and to relieI e
| labor and business from the uncertainty
and inability in the conduct of public

NATIONALS RECORD
CONVENTIONS RIVAL
Fans Among the Chicago Delegates
Forget Politics for
Baseball.

CHICAGO. June 19.-The subject most
discussed about the Hobbies today. next
to the question whether Taft or Roose-
welt is going to be nominated, is the
marvellous series of performances of
the Washington ball team.
When the news came last night that
Washington had won its seventeenth
straight victory there was almost as
much excitement about 1t as there was
about the doings of the convention.
Senator Murray Crane, who is one of
the most ardent baseball fans in the
country. cant pass a news stand nova
days without hurriedly grabbing up a
paper and looking at the sporting pages.
Former Senator Nathan Bay Scott is
loud in his praise of the Washington
team. The former Senator is also loud
in lamentation of the fact that he can't
get back to Washington and see the
boys play.

Roots Victory Not a Tri-
umph for President
Taft.

The first days round Of the wres-
Ting match in which the Republican
leaders are engaging here resulted in
dog-fall Mr.. Root received 55S
votes for temporary chairman. only
eighteen more than half of the con-
vention, which indicates that the vote
between Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt
will be so close that no one can count
with any certainty on the result.
On the face of the returns 1t would
look like a victory for Taft. 1t Is
great advantage to him to have a
supporter OF his in the chair-espe-
cially as able man as Mr.. Root. He
is probably the most faithful corpor-
alton lawyer in the country. One of
his prominent clients has been quoted
as saying that former attorneys en-
ployed by him told him what he could
do But that Root told him to do
things.
The New York Senator will be in a
position where he can do things. and
from now on the Roosevelt forces
can expect no parliamentary advan-
| tage. 1t will keep them busy to avoid
the traps and pitfalls that will be set
for them. In fact. it would not be
surprising If our old friend Res Ad-
judicata appeared on the scene every
now and then when least expected.
But while Mr.. Taft has won the tenn
! porary Craftsmanship, his victory be-
longs to that class of victories OF
which 1t can be said that few more
such victories would destroy the
! victor.
In order to win the coveted prize MIR.
Root had to obtain seven Of MIR. Roose-
velt's instructed delegates in Illinois
eight in Maryland, three in Oregon
and four in Pennsylvania. These men
are under Instructions given at pri-
maries, and will have to vote for

LABOR DEMANDS
CURB OF JUDGES
ON |NJUNCT|ONS
Sam Gompers Is Outlining
Plank for a Republican
Convention.

CHICAGO, June 19.-Relief for labor
organizations from the provisions Of the
antitrust law and the curbing Of the
power of Federal judges in the issuance
of Injunction in labor. disputes will be
the chief demands made by organized
labor on the platform builders of the
Republican convention.
The same demands will be presented
next week to the Democratic leaders In
Baltimore.
Samuel Gompers. president of the AM
erican Federation Of Labor and John
B. Lennon, treasurer today began for
mulatng the demands which will be
presented to the proper committee at
the earliest opportunity.
Mr. Gompers said that he did not
know when he would be gwen hear
ing; II at all.
There are now bills pending in Con-
gress designed to give the labor or
ganizations the relief they ask on the
Injunction question and the antitrust
question. but Mr.. Gompers said they
have not passed the same and intimated
there Is little hope of their enactment
into law at this session.
Another plank which 1t Is understood
that labor forces will ask is a law. pro-
hibitng the shipment of prison made
goods from one State to another
hill IN this subject is pending in Con-
gress. but 1t is not believed that 1t will
pass.
The extension of the eight-hour law,
which has been urged by the American
Federation of Labor for years, recent
passed both houses of Congress, and the
lab Dor leaders are satisfied on that point.
The creation of postal savings banks.
which was one of the lnsistent demands
made bv the labor forces four years
ago. has been effected. so that Is left
out of labor's program this year.
II cannot say when We shall pre-
sent Our requests" said Mr.. Gompers
''or even where. There may be two
| conventions for aught l know at this
time. I expect to go to Baltimore when
we leave Chicago and present the same
requests to the Democratic party.
Il expect the policy OF the American n
| Federation of Labor In the coming canl-
| paign will be shaped according to the
| treatment we receive
While he was careful not to commit
himself regarding any Of the Presiden n
| tial candidates, Mr.. Gompers showed
| that he Is as much opposed to Presi-
dent Taft as he was In the campaign
| four years ago, and expressed the hope
| that Colonel Roosevelt would not allow
| the steam roller to run over him in the
| convention.
