Boston, May 1.-2 a.. m.-Tha
struggle for the control Of the Massa.
chusetts delegation to the Republican
| convention in Chicago between Taft
and Roosevelt is so close that at mid
night with half the state tabulate1,
the two aspirants for the nomina-
tlon are running neck and neck for
the presidential preference, while in
complete returns showed they had
also an equal division of district DEL
egates.
On the preferential vote, the re-
turns from I'll of 1880 election pre-
cincts gave Taft 1929; Roosevelt
1896; La Toilette 1,130. On the
other hand, Baxter, who headed the
Roosevelt group, had 45,4 to 40
O30 for Senator Crane, who led the
Taft ticket.
Returns from the districts showed
Taft to be ahead in the First, Second.
Third, Eighth, Tenth, Eleventh and
Thirteenth, while the Roosevelt dele
gates led in the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth,
Seventh, Ninth, Twelfth and Four
teenth districts.
The closeness of the fight in the
Republican. ranks overshadowed the
contest in the Democratic party. Pc
turns from half the state gave Speak
er Clark 1850; Gov. Wilson 1897.
The La Toilette vote failed to reach
four figures at midnight. Taft car
ried Boston by about 600 votes, but
eastern towns, including many in the
Cape Cod and Plymouth districts,
lined up strong for Roosevelt, while
the central portion is evenly split
The total vote for the two candidates
is about fifty per cent of that polled
by the Republican candidate for goy-
ernor last November.
Politicians look upon, Massachu-
sets as the key state as they believe
that if Roosevelt can capture that
delegation, he will be able to win the
nomination and that Taft's chances
will be small. The closeness- of the
vote indicates that a desperate fight
is being made between the two can
