TEDDY PLANS
 HIS CAMPAIGN
WILL HAVE NATIONWIDE ORGAN EATON AT CHICAGO TO LOOK
 AFTER INTERESTS.
Delegates Ask Him Not to Oppose Root for Chalrman-Protests Over the Unfair Distribu-
 ton of Tickets.

Oyster Bay, N Y, June 1.-The Roosevelt line of battle for the re- publican national convention was for med today. At council of war;" on Sagamore Hill, there was mapped ous campaign, which 1t is hoped. will result in the capture of the convention
 The first step is to be organization of the Roosevelt forces throughout the country. It is planned to send to Chicago. a week or so in advance Of the convention, an executive commi- ttee from every state in which Roose. vet delegates have been elected, in which there is a contest. By this method 1t is expected to mobilize and drill an organization, which will act as a unit on every matter which comes before the convention.
 As a part of this plan the Roose- welt delegates in every part of the country will be canvassed as to their views on the temporary chairmansnip, that a harmonious agreement may be reached Although Colonel Roosevelt had decided to oppose the selection of Senator Root, and had asked Governor Hadley of Missouri to be his candi- date for the place, he indicated today that he would waive his objections if it seemed wiser to his supporters to reserve their fire for the more i'm portant contests.
 Whether Colonel Roosevelt will go to Chicago to lead the fight in person is now an open question. He virtually served notice on his opponents that under certain circumstances he might go. He said he did not intend to go unless some grave emergency in the shape of unfair play should arise"
 Two other points were agreed on. Every effort is to be made to have the hearings before the national cam mittee, to settle contests for seass held publicly. And the Roosevelt sup porters will fight to obtain what they deem an equitable distribution of con vention tickets.

 The men who conferred with Colo nel Roosevelt today in regard to these plans represented the Roosevelt dele gates from Illinois, Maine and North Carolina. The Illinois delegation mum bered IA and was piloted by Alexan- der H. Revell of Chicago, chairman of the Roosevelt National Committee and Medill Mccormick of Chicago, S. s. McNish was the representative of North Carolina.
 Regarding the results of the day conferences the Colonel said:
 eI have written to Governor Hadley in regard 10 the temporary chairman ship, but nothing definite has been decided about that The Illinois and rhx xrfut fnAa did not think the temporary chair manship is essential. I want to hear from the delegates throughout the country before cimmitting myself fin ally"
 The delegates whom have seen today consider the matter of the tenn porary chairmanship unimportant..
 II said | would carefully consider all that they had said and would be very glad to hear from any others.
 Both the Illinois and the Maine men protested about the matter Of the distribution of tickets to the con- vention, saying that their delegations had been allowed only very small proportion of the tickets hitherto al- lotted them. and That they felt that | this indicated a deliberate purpose on the part of the national committee to use ten or twelve thousand tickets to stuff the gallery with shouters who will try by clamor to oyerawe the con vention
 "They also made to me point with which l heartily agree-tihat the hear ings on the contested election dele gates should be open to the press. All we are striving for is an absolute
