According to the Taft forces, Roose.
velt's defeat will be the inevitable re-
suit of that decisive defeat admins
tered to the Roosevelt forces in the
second days session of the Republi
can convention.
The delegates, by vote of 564 tc
$40, tabled Governor Hadley's motion
to unseat ninety-two contested dele
gates seated by the Republican ma
tional committee.
The action brought to a close one
of the greatest demonstrations ever
witnessed on the floor of a Republi
can national convention, during which
even Theodore Roosevelt himself was
second to Herbert hadley, governor
of Missouri and Roosevelt's floor
leader.
"Hadley, Hadley. Give us Had
ley for President"
The shouts rang throughout the
Coliseum, drowning out the voices OF
the Historically shouting speakers
and led by the cheering, enthusiastic
Missouri delegation the Roosevelt
forces began a parade around the
hall, yelling and shouting for theil
chiefs
At the time the pandemonium fol
Hadley was at its height the conven
ton was thrown into a stampede wher
the attention of the yelling mob was
attracted to a pretty girl in the gal
lery waving a picture of Roosevelt
and throwing kisses to the crowd. The
delegates took the young woman, who

ECZEMA DISFlGURED BABY

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his little
face was distigured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
I'VE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result. we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly We saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has
head Of hair which is pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (SignedD Mrs. n.

That Roosevelt will order a with
drawal of his delegates from the CON
vention if the credentials committee
fails to unseat the protested eighty
delegates included in the appeal sub
mitted by Governor Hadley was the
most discussed proposition around
headquarters just before the convcu-
ton opened for the second day. On
every hand it was agreed that this de-
velopment was certain to follow az
proval of the national committees ac-
tion. 1t was also expressed as anothtt
certainty that Roosevelt could not
take from the convention some OF his
pledged delegates.
Roosevelt's chief lieutenants, includ-
ing Governors Hadley and Deneen
served notice that they will not sane
ton a bolt under any circumstance
They made no secret Of their position
in this respect and announced it to
number of newspaper men
Stick to your leaders," said Colo
mel Roosevelt. Support Hadley, John
son and Record. They will lead
fight to purge the roll. That fight
must be made regardless Of any Other
thing. 1t is not question Of my nom'-
nation. If I could be nominated by
the use of that roll, | should not &C
cept it. The roll is fraudulent

Nine of the ten North Dakota dele
gates Joined the Roosevelt delegate in

While this does not commit them
to Roosevelt, it indicates willingness
to side with the followers of the ex
president, rather than with the fol
lowers of the President, when they
are compelled to choose.
The pot has been boiling furiousiy
since the first session adjourned, and
one hears all sorts of rumors. While
it is not safe to venture a prediction,
still 1t is only rejecting what one
hears in the corridors to say that there
is more talk of a dark horse than here
tofore.
The two principal contestants have
measured strength and neither feels
as sure as he did before the roll call.
The officeseeker is not idle, and the
paramount question with him is not
who would make an ideal candidate,
or an ideal President, but who can
win.
Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt will
find some consolation in killing each

Champ Clark's candidacy met just the
opposite results. In Chicago his APP
parent majority, based on more than
three fourths of the total number Of

Carl Gray, Aged 10, Victim of Accident
in Duxbury Yesterday and Is in
Serious Condition.

Waterbury, April TO-. The physicians
are hopeful to-day of the recovery OF
Carl Gray, aged 10 years, whose arm was
so shattered by the explosion of an old
musket yesterday that the member had
to be amputated at the elbow last night.
Grave fears were entertained last night
that he could not live. as the arm was
badly torn.
The boy, who is student at Bellows
Free academy in Fairfax, was visiting
his grandfather, NJ. V. b. Hayden, in
Duxbury and went out huuting with the
gun which had not been cleaned since
the last hunting season, it is said. The
boy fired the gun and the barrel eX-
pioded, shattering the left arm. DR..
T. f. Steele, ir., was first summoned
and later DR.. ]. f. Bidwell. Last night
they cut off the arm.
The boy is the son Of Mrs. Lucy

it was admitted that the fight would be
close. On the basis OF the majorities
in the two district conventions yester-
day afternon, the chances seemed to IA
vor the Taft chim.
The total voting strength Of the Taft
forces in the two couy -ntions was $50
against the total voting strength Of 80
for the Roosevelt forces That would
leave % possible delegates in the state
convention unaccountcd for. Allowing
that the entire voting strength of the
convention were to be present. the num-
Der needed to elect would he $50: and
the total TAFT strength in the two con
vcutions exceeded that by nine votes.
That statement is made too. on the sup
position that the town caucuses in
structed their delegates to the state con-
vcntion in the same manner as the dele
gates to the district conventions,
The Taft candidates for delegates-at
large were selected as follows: United
States Senator Carroll S. Page Of Hyde
Park. GOV. John A. Mead of Rutland,
john l.. Lewis Of North Troy and Col.
j. G. Estey o2 Brattleboro.
After the holding OF caucus by the
Roosevelt forces this noon, it was stated
that their probable ticket would be-:
Senator Page. John L. Lewis, DR. J B.
Thompson Of Rutland and Henry /. Bal
lou of Chester. This ticket carries the
names Of two men who favor Taft, the
first two named. and two Roosevelt men.
Next to carrying the state, the chief aim
OF the Roosevelt forces about Rutland
has been to defeat Gov. Mead as a
delegate to the Chicago convention.
The convention was called to order
shortly after 80 o'clock by Frank G..
Williams of Newport, chairman of the
Republican state committee. Prayer was
offered by Rev. 5. +. Bloomfield of Mont
pelier, and the call for the convention
was read by the secretary.
Mr.. Williams then announced that
senator Dillingham; had been elected as
temporary chairman. with Guy Page of
burlington as temporary secretary and
James Kendall of Strarord as temporary
assistant secretary.
On being introduced. Senator Dilling-
ham spoke briefly to the convention, de-
voting most Of the speech to a recount
ING Of the deeds of the Republican party
He said that the history OF the party
for the past fifty years has been the his
tory of the nation; and he told of the
things which the Republican party has
done for the nation and is about to do
He said that the party has taken up
the regulations Of the great concerns,
and is now directing its attention to the
express companies; the tariff must be
taken up later on.
