Several American plantation owners

The mayor has telegraphed the pro-

re-neminated and reelected President
of the United States for a second
term"
The statement by Manager Mckinley
of the attitude of the National COM
mittee toward the contest cases which
involve the seats of large number
lows:
at must be expected that those
national committeeman whose con-
sciences may force them to disagree
with Mr., Roosevelt will be openly de-
nounced by him and the whole com
mlttee will be misrepresented and
villifed, collectively and individually,
by Mr.. Roosevelt exactly as he has
misrepresented and denounced those
who have hitherto disagreed with him
during public career.
The National Republican commit
tee sitself made the rules under which
delegates have been elected to the
National convention and it's sole duty
now is to see that these Pules nave
been obeyed to the letter The mere
fact that one candidate, Theodore
Roosevelt, has seen fit to bring %
per cent. of the Contests before that
body does not alter the issue involved.
The friends of President Taft believe
that the Republican National commit
tee as now constituted is representa-
tive of the Republican party and that
it will do it's full duty by the party
at Chicago. The friends of the Pres
ident will not try their cases of con-
tested delegates before the country
until the National committee meets
They have no sympathy whatever in
Mr.. Roosevelts endeavors to bring
influence TO bear upon the party tri-
bunal--the National cemmittee--be-
fore the evidence is heard.
ITO the country at large, however,
the friends of the President protested
against the tactics now being employ
ed by Theodore Roosevelt in an en-
deavor to excite popular passion
against the members of the control
ling body of the Republican party be-
fore an iota of evidence in the con-
tests to be decided has been laid be
fore that organization.

Roosevelt Forces
Want Own Chairman.

Chicago May 24-Ormsby McHarg
of New York. one Of the managers of
Col. Roosevelt's campaign for the Re-
publican nomination. who passed sew
eral hours, today. in Chicago, said
tonight. that the Roosevelt forces
would refuse to abide by the selec
ton of United States Senator Root of
New Yerk as temporary chairman of
the National convention.
McHarg said that the Roosevelt
managers would insist on naming
chairman in accord with the Roose-
welt policies. The names of Gov. Her
bert S. Hadley of Mo-. Gov. Hiram
w. Johnson of California and United
States Senator Moses e. Clapp of
Minnesota were mentioned by Nc
Harg as being acceptable in this con-
nection with the Roosevelt forces.
McHarg said he would have charge
of all Roosevelt contests to be taken
before the Republican National COM
mittee. this year, as he did four years
ago, for President Taft.
When the convention meets" said
MeHarg, "the Roosevelt strength will
be such that we will control abso-
lutely. We propose of organize that
convention along lines that will not
be at all comfortable for Senator Root
to preside. That convention must
lave as chairman a man who is in
accord with Col Roosevelt's views and
that means that IL must be some one
other than Senator Root 1t is obvi
ously impossible TO have chairman
who Is out of sympathy with Col.
Roosevelt and the Progressive pria
ciple."
In discussing the contests to be
brought before the National commit
tee, McHarg said there would be at
least $50 or 20 contested seats as
against 80 contested seats at the Ma
tional convention in 1908.
June }, il was said. tonight will
signalize the opening in Chicago of
the final pre-convention struggle be-
tween Taft and Roosevelt forces.
Congressman William b. Mckinley
of Illinois will be in personal charge
of the Taft headquarters and United
States Senator Dixon of Montana will
direct the work of the Roosevelt bu-
reau.

Cy Young Retires
From Baseball.

Pittsburgh, May 23-"Cy" Young
has pitched his last game of base
ball. Tonight, he severed his connec-
ton with the Boston National Club.
with which he has been connected for
little less than a year.
The breaking of the relations be-
tween Young and the club was at
his own suggestion and against the
expressed wishes of Manager King
and Treasurer Gaffney. the only one
of the club owners present. President
Ward being in New York. Gaffney
only gave his consent to the veteran
pitchers departure after extracting
from him promise to return when
ever he felt able to pitch at all
Tears stood in the veterans eyes
as he gave Galfney his word to re-
turn If his arm should come around
all right, but it was easy to see that
Young felt he would never return, a
feeling which was shared by both
Gaffney and Killing, TO judge of their
looks.
Young began his spring training
this season at Hot Springs as he has
for years past, and later when he re-
the very best of condition. While in
the Georgia city he pitched five innings
against the second team, during which
/ no man reached first base, and from
the way he was burning the ball over
the plate it seemed as though he nigh
have gone through the whole gam
in tie same way, duplicating his feat of
May 3. 1904, against the Athletics.
Young's last work in the box for
the Boston club was on March II at
| Athens, Ga, where he pitched four in
nings against the Buffalo club. He
told the writer more than a month
later that his arm began to go in the
fourth inning of that game. on April
| 3, while warming up before the first
game, at Richmond, he caught cold in
his pitching arm and has been unable
to do any work since then, though he
has worked hard to get back into
shape ever since that time.
| Young does not have to worry over
! financial affairs. He owns his home
stead in Peoli, o., and has snug bank
account as well.
In addition, only, Yesterday. he exc
cuted lease to the Standard Oil Com
pany giving that corporation the right
| to make borings on his farm for ma
tural gas and oil. BY terms of the
lease, Young is allowed to continue
living upon and tilling the farm and
anything that the oil company may dc
which will at all interfere with the
working of the farm is to be paid fol-
lin addition to the renal.

Chicago Convention
Will Be Strenuous

Washington, May 24.-The bitterness
of the fight that is to rage about the
Republican National committee, when
it begins consideration of contest cases
in Chicago. June 6, was emphasized,
today, by statement by Rep. VIM.
b. Mckinley, head of the Taft cam
paign forces. Mr.. Mckinley said it was
becoming apparent that Col Roosevelt
land his followers will resort to every
known means to terrorlze the Chicago
convention"
THAT the time has come when the
moral stamina of the leaders of the
Republican party is to be tested as it
has not been since the Civil War is
certain Mr.. Mckinley continued. 1T
is within the power of the National
committee to make or break the Re
publican party for many years to come.
The party is strong enough to with
stand the shock of any attack within
or without, but no part can survive a
| compromise with principle or an aban-
document of all principle"
! The Mckinley statement was given
out as the result of widespread reports
that Gel. Roosevelt desired the remov-
a! from the National committee OF
! certain members whom he knew to be
J strongly opposed to him.
Senator Dixon, the Roosevelt man
ager, was not in the city, today. but
his close associates said the Roose-
welt committee did not approve of the
stories that the National committee
Was controlled for their candidate.
! Mr. Mekinlcy,s statement was fol-
lowed by another from the Taft bu.

headquarters tending to show that the
