by the national committee carried
the state by 1900 votes.
So far as Texas was concerned, he
said, the Taft delegates seated we're
chosen by a convention which had
only 2O9 delegates present, and rep
resented only a small section Of the
Republicans Of the state.
Hadley demanded that all the con-
lested delegates be refused votes un-
til their right had been passed upon
by the credentials committee. He in
sisted that Watson had mIsrepre-
scented some of the facts in the deci-
slon Of the Republican national com

referred to the old English directory,

this reservation" concluded Hadley,
"and that is that these men are un-
lawfully here, and shall not be per-
mitted to vote on the question Of

Just Paper Contests.
"The others we're paper contests, "
he shouted, ito give certain people a
chance to yell fraud, fraud, where
there was no fraud"
Hemenway then assailed Cecil
Lyon, for, he said, driving away
fiye-sixths Of the Republicans Of
Texas"
What he wants. Hemenway de-
clared, 'is to reduce the Republican
party in Texas only to office holders,
so that he can perpetuate his own
control"
Hemenway turned the laugh on the
ed counties In his state in which
there was not single Republican
vote.
Lyon can no longer work his
frauds on the Republican national
convention" said Hemenway.
Finn shouted; How about PEN
roseT
I'll answer you," said Hemenway,

tell you straight--it's Penrose above
Finn every time"
This assertion started another
storm.

ysnia wants an honest hearing of his
charges and his statements" said
Root in rebuking Finn, "he will con-
duct the proceedings in an orderly
manner"
Finn Sat Down On.
Root pounded for order but Finn
insisted on recognition. Snatching a
megaphone from delegate, he
shouted:

gentleman from Indiana is not speak
ing to the question"
Root did not hesitate a second.
Pointing the gavel at the Pennsyl-
yanian, he declared: "The gentleman
will take his seat"
Finn stood his ground.
Smashing the table again and
again with his gavel, Root answered:
The point of order is not we'll talk

yania will take his seat. When quiet
is restored, the gentleman from In

whether the temporary roll was
properly made up. He reviewed the

argued that It's action was proper and

ut is utterly false that the state of
Washington was ever carried by Pres

arose over King county, the largest
county in the state. The paid man

into a meeting of the county central

they elected delegates at primary

BUREAU REPORTS
 WILL RULE MARKET
Expect Bearish Ginners' Re- port and Bullish COndi-
 tion Report

New Orleans, September 22.-Unless weather developments are out of the or dinary the cotton trade this week will be chiefly concerned with bureau reports. Wednesday will end the second ginning period of the season and also the last condition period If indications at the close of last week were anything to go by, the trade will look for a bearish ginners report and a bulish condition report. With such a state of affairs, two main features about balancing, the weather will probably move prices one way or another.
 The average trader will probably admit this week that crop deterioration has been severe, and that decided falling off in the percentage of condition is to be expected The end of the growing season Is here and the plant is showing the signs of maturity. There has been much conflict of opinion over the condi- tion of the crop, and 1t is yet impossible to say what the average opinion Is.
 With continued favorable weather for picking the bears will claim large ginning returns for the entire belt, even to the northern sections. If rains interfere with picking they may still claim large out turn from the gins, because it is con- ceded that in many sections of the belt the ginning machinery has been unable to keep up with the piekers and that large amount of cotton has been stored in the seed, waiting for chance to be ginned. Rainy weather would afford this chance as it would check the movement of the crop from the fields. Even the bulls are willing to grant that the ginners' returns will be large, although they contend that they are no pointer to the size of the crop.
 The market will continue to be very sem sitive to storm and frost news. Heavy winds In the Gulf of Mexico or any signs

 GAMES ON CAMPUS

Atlanta, September 22.-(Special.)-- Tech will play at Tech Flats this sea- son instead at Ponce de Leon park, the home of the Atlanta baseball club, the decision being reached after disa- greement between the two as to the rental fee for the season.
 The baseball company wanted 10 per cent of the gross receipts for the en- tire season, which would amount to se5.oo0. This the Tech authorities deemed too much.
 And all future games will be played at the Flats. Plans have just been drawn up for a handsome athletic field, with a gymnasium at one end, reinforced concrete stands and all oth- CT modern conveniences.
 All athletic events In the future will be played on this field.
 Charles W. Leavitt, Jr., of New York the well known landscape architect and chief engineer of the Pan-American ex- position at Frisco In 1915, drew the plans of the grounds. which have been accepted. Prof. Francis c. Smith. B. s of Arch. of the University of Penn sylvania and head of the architectural department at Georgia Tech, drew the plans for all the buildings and stands Work will commence on the field i'm mediately at the close of the preseni football season and the grounds vii be in use by next spring, though the stands will not be completed at thai time.

RAILROADS ORDER FOR COMING YEAR Contracts for 100000 Tons Rails Placed for
 1913

New York, September 22.--The most inn portant development in the steel situation last week was the placing of contracts for 3e0,000 tons of rails mainly for 1913 shipment. The New York Central is the first of the large eastern systems to cover its next years requirements, having just distributed orders for l50,0oe tons of stan dard sections. Other rail contracts placed included 5o.000 tons additional for the Santa Fe. 10000 for the Missouri, Kansas and Texas, 10000 for the Hartman lines and 6000 tons for export to China
 The principal feature of interest in the structural trade was the placing of a contract for 5000 tons of fabricated shapes for the Equitable building with the American Bridge company.
 All the largest steel companies are now quoting sl .35 for bars and s140 for struc- tural plates f. 0. b. Pittsburg for ship ment for the first quarter Of next year. but it is believed that the Steel corpor- ation has determined to check any of the advances In prices on this movement. In line with such policy the American Sheet and Tin Plate company is now accepting business for tin plate for 1913 shipment on the basis of 8. Go per box but blue an- healed sheets were advanced s1 per ton.

New York, September z2.-The football rules of 1912, as laid down by the Inter collegiate Football rules committee. stood practically unchanged when the central board of football officials completed de- Alterations here.
 The officials, together with football managers, coaches and captains from schools and colleges from all parts of the east, met to hear the new rules inter preted by Walter Camp, secretary of the rules committee. and to offer sugges- tions.
 The longest discussion was that over the rule which provides that "a kick other than kickoff, a free kick or return kick must be made from point at least five yards behind the line of scrimmage."
 Mr Camp held that the rule must be interpreted literally and that it did not mean that a ball fumbled on kick by the offensive side could be kicked by the defensive side from behind its line of scrmmage.
 "A kicked ball cannot be kicked again except as return kick of a ball going over the line of scrimmage," said MT. Camp. otherwise on a fumbled kick, defensive player could kick the oall down
