Baltimore, July 3.--Members Of the
Democratic national Committee indl-
Gated tonight that the plan and scope
Of the presidential campaign in the
interest of Gov. Wilson will in meas
ure depend upon whether a third
party is formed by Roosevelt. The
committeeman will go to Seagirt to-
morrow to pay their respects to VIII
son.
Some Of them suggested that as VIII
SCI g a progressive Roosevelt might
= IN announce the abandonment of his
plan of progressive party. Chair
man Mack said that success for the
Democrats Is assured, REGARDLESS of
whether Roosevelt forms third party.
The committeeman say 1t is not likely
that well defined plan of action in
the campaign will be Immediately
adopted. The general opinion here is
that William F. McCombs of New
York, or Congressman Mitchell Palmer.
of Pennsylvania, will be chosen to head
the committee to conduct the Wilson
campaign. Practically all the delegates
have left here
Wilson will in the meantime deter
mine the direction of his own cam
paign for president; pass upon the de-
STABILITY Of appointing a campaign
committee on the naming of the Off
GERS of the new Democratic national
committee.
This was the sense of the members
OF the new national Democratic com
mittee which met today and after con-
tinutng the officers of the old COM
mittee in power until a permanent
organization Is effected, designated a
committee Of five consisting of
Chairman Mack, Secretary Woodson
and three other committeeman, to con-
fer with Gov. Wilson on the permanent
organization OF the new committee
This sub COMMITTEES will also confer
vita GOV. kRfisoH on any plans that
the present nominee may have with
respect to the conduct of his campaign
and will report back to the full ma
tfonal committee, at such time and
place as Chairman Mack may desig-
nate. 1t was stated in committee
meeting that the continuance of the
retiring officers until permanent organ
ization was perfected was entirely
agreeable to Governor Wilson.
The committee heard a protest made
by Congressman George F. OShaugh-
messy Of Rhode Island, against the
seating Of George w. Green of Woon-
socket, but dismissed the protest on
the ground that the national commit
tee had previously passed on the case
The committee then adjourned.
RUSH FROM BALTIMORE
With the naming OF the full presi-
dential ticket there was a general rush
of leaders and delegates to leave town
today. Departing delegates declared
that the ticket would be found ac-
ceptable to the people of the country
and that It would carry election. Many
congratulatory kilograms were sent tc
the candidates.
Headquarters Of the various dele
cations were dismantled and fore OF
worImen were actively enga ged in
stripping the convention hall Of plat
forms. temporary galleries and chairs
William J. Bryan with his wife left
the city this morning for Chicago. He
said that the work has been well done
here and he would not now prepare for
the coming campaign. The Nebraskar
said II had been decided to leave the
proposition of naming a campaign
committee to Gov. Wilson.

today to a bombardment Of questions
hurled at him by a group of reporters.
He was looking rather careworn and
tired.

manager or suggest him for the chair
manship of the national COMMITTEES, .
said he. II haven't decided whether

Rebel Front, Bachimba, Mex, July 3.
After six hours of fighting between
the main federal and rebel armies to-
day, 1t seemed neither side had OBJ
tanned a decided advantage. The pro-
longation of the conflict is indicated.
The battle occurred in the heart of
the mountains in northern Mexico,
where Bachimba canyon, natural
fortess, controls the entrance to the
city of Chihuahua, forty miles north.
The conflict may prove to be the last
great battle of the Mexican revolution.
About five thousand rebels, under
Rebel Leader Orozco, are opposed to
about the same number of federals.
Tonight the indications were If the
rebel ammunition holds out the issue
will not be decided for several days.
A federal victory means an end of
the organized revolution and probably
a succession of guerilla struggles.
The fedorals at nightfall were pour
ing a heavy artillery fire into the rebel
position. The shelling did little dam
age and tonight only slight losses are
reported. During the day there were
desperate saliies Of the federal cavalry
through gaps in the canyon, but the
rebels checked them.

We direct the intelligence of the
American people upon the administration
of William H. Taft. The country has
prospered and been at peace under his
presidency. During the years in which
he had the cooperation of a Republican
Congress an unexampled amount of con-
structive legislation was framed and
passed in the interest Of the pople and in
obedience TO their wish. That legisla-
tion is a record on which any administra-

favorable judgment of history
We appeal to the American electoral
vote on the record of the Republican
party and upon this declaration of its
principles and purposes. We are conf

candidates here to be nominated our ap-
peal will not be in vain. that the Repub-

The steadily increasing cost Of living
has become a matter not only of national
but of world wide concern. The fact
that it is not due 10 the protective tariff
system is evidenced by the existence of
similar conditions in countries which
have tariff policy different from our
own, as well as by the fact that the cost
of living has increased while rates Of
duty have remained stationary or been
reduced
The Republican party viii support a
prompt scientific inquiry into the causes
which are operative, both in the United
States and elsewhere to increase the
cost of living. When the exact facts are
known IL will take the necessary steps
to remove any abuses that may be found
to exist, in order that the cost of food.
