At 1915 o'clock. fifteen minutes
before the convention was sup
posed TO be called to order, there
were hardly fifty delegates i'm
their seats.
CHICAGO, ILL., Special
Colonel Roosevelt can have any
thing hC wants from the Progress
sive party, and therefore Cover
nor johnson, of California, will
be nominated as his running
mate. Governor johnson is
fighting man, and with two fight
ing men ut the head of the ticket
the Progressive party will be able
TO wage the most aggressive cam
paign ever witnessed i'm American
politics.
The vice presidential situation
was thus outlined today by one
of the most prominent leaders of
the new party. He added that at
first Colonel Roosevelt had IA
VOred the nomination of N South
ern Democrat, but, after long
VIII Ills siuNlSCTS, Il1u
decided that &c would be good
politics to have the Vice President
from the West this year. Colonel
John NJ. Parker. of Louisiana,
and Luke Il. Wright, of TenneS-
see, both candidates, had been the
men favored by the Colonel.
The belief that Governor John
son Il the best man for the Job
WAS reached early today after n
long night conference. Governor
johnson will be notified that he
has been decided upon. He stated
that If he were named he would
accept.
n protest is expected from the
California delegation, but the
members will be told that it will
not be necessary for the Governor
TO resign unless elected. Friends
of Judge Ben B. Lindsey, of
Denver, were disappointed today
when they learned that their can
didate had been shelved. but at
the same time declared their in
tention of supporting the ticket.

THE NEGRO QUESTION.
(HIEAE0 ILL SnncinI III,


question of permanent chair
man for the Bull Moose Conven-
ton was the chief topic of interest.
The Florida delegates assert TO-
day that they will get their cases
before the convention itself.
considerable bitterness i'm the
Florida cases grew out OF the
charge that c. III. Aston. head
of the negro delegation. was i'm
reality acting in the interests OF
the Taft Republicans in his State
and that the delegates had been
elected TO embarT-lsS che new
party.
Aston denies this charge with
much heat.
In the discussion before the
Credentials Committee the politi-
cal effect of the move was dis
cuSsed with frankneSs and the
assertion that the move would
gain votes in the South. but would
cause a decided loss i'm the North
was freely made.
When the fight was all over
and il was time 40 vote. DIR. John
&. Canon, of New Jersey, a negro,
summed up the situation as the
blacks view il.
You hope to gain white votes
against the negroes" he said,
LET me tell you that YOU are
wrong. For every white vote that
you gain in the South by this
method you will lose whites i'm
the North.
Nevertheless, you have shown
your determination and we must
have harmony at any cost. i
shall vote with the majority"

The navy department has only a

ported that the first detachment sent
