TAFT IS WINNER
 OF REORGANIZATION
Roosevelt Absolutely Defeated
 For a Third Term.
BAY STATE TELLS TALE.

Former President Needs 31t Delegates to Win, and Only BIO Remain to 5e EIected-Ta ables Tell the Story-The States In Which Delegates Are Yet to Be Chosen.
 Theodore Roosevelt has already lost all chance of renomination for third term by the Republican national con- vention at Chicago in June. On Satur- day night. May 4. he needed 311 dele gates to control the convention, and on that day only BIO delegates remained to be chosen The TAI delegates al ready elected are instructed for or pledged to President Taft, Colonel Roosevelt and Senators La Toilette and Cummins, and of this number President Taft has almost two-thirds for his renOmination.
 The plain defeat of Colonel Roosevelt in Massachusetts practically took him out of the race. and the action of the Thirteenth Missouri district in sending to Chicago delegates pledged to Taft proved his unlucky undoing. In Mas sachusetts the contest was fought un- der a presidential preference primary law which had Mir. Roosevelts com plete approval. The issues raised were issues squarely between President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt themselves, and the vote showed this result:
 President Taft carried the presiden- tial preference primary by 4,O00 plural ity and had an actual majority over both Colonel Roosevelt and Senator La Toilette
 The president carried nine of the fourteen congressional districts in the state.
 The Taft alternate ticket was elected by a plurality as large as the presi dents on the preference vote.
 The Taft delegate ticket was defeat ed through a technical error on th' part of the voters, who were confused by the presence of an independent Taf candidate on the ticket. This fac caused more than 1S,OOO voters to yot for nine instead of eight Taft dele gates at large, thereby invalidatIn; their ballots although their preferenc was plainly shown. In recognition o this fact Colonel Roosevelt himsel has waived his claim to these dele gates.

much speculation concerning the atti-
tude of the insurgent senators toward
revision Some democratic senators
already are quietly prepa ing to pro-
test against any too deep cuts in tie
tariff schedules, particularly in wool,
sugar and lumber.
Without the help Of the republican
insurgents it is admitted the demo-
Gratis can put through the senate only

ocratic margin of control will be slen-
der. The loss of two or three demo
cratic votes to the republicans would
mean failure of the democratic pro-
pcsals, and to avoid that the tariff
revision measure must necessarily be
framed along conservative lines.
When the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill
was being pushedt through the senate
the republicans could always count
on the tvo Louisiana democratic SEN
ators Foster and Thorton, when in
tight place.
There are other democrats who will
be in the next congress and who are
very conservative on tariff rate cuts.
Some democrats frankly say they
want revision "along conservative
lines" Others fear the effect on bus

duties and think along the principle
that "discretion is the better part of
valor" reduction should be gradual.
Therefore, a radical revision of the
tariff rates would seem to depend up
on the republican insurgents. They
have been shouting for tariff revision,
and some of them trained with the
democrats in the last two session

of the house and put several tariff
