OPPOSITION TO PARKER.
May Lead to Bryan Becoming candi-
date for the Presidency.

Baltimore, Md, June 20.-When tho
committeeman concluded their discus
sions of Bryan's objection to Judge
Parker as temporary chairman it was
stated by several members that it
was determined to proceed with the
plan to elect the former New York
jurist.
Adherents here of Speaker Clark
and Governor Wilson finally said they
had no candidate for the temporary
Craftsmanship and hoped the commit
tee would settle the question without
raising any issue on the floor of the
convention.
1t was generally reported that Col
onel Bryan would take the floor
against Judge Parker's selection and
friends of Speaker Clark and Gov
eSnor Wilson admitted that this stu
alton might lead to Bryan becoming
, candidate for the presidential NOM

Roosevelt Leaders Confer.
Surrounding Governor Deneen's seat
on the floor for fifteen minutes before
the call to order were the Roosevelt
leaders in earnest consultation. In the
group were Senator Dixon, Governor
Hadley. William Finn and Governor
johnson Of California.
Another fifteen minutes passed be-
fore Chairman Root again took up his
gavel and with emphatic blows on tho
table insisted upon quiet and order.
Much Of the confusion was due to late
Corners in the galleries.
Estimates Are Made.
According to the estimates Of very
careful observers. the vote in the re-
publican national convention, resulting
In the election Of Senator Root, as the
Taft candidate, to be temporary chair
man, does not by any means indicate
with certainty that President Taft will
be renominated. The victory is i'm
portant to the Taft people as far as
It goes. When it is recalled, however,
that it was achieved by the help Of
at least 81 votes which are instructed
for Roosevelt, it will easily be seen
that it does not necessarily point to
final Taft victory.
The Taft leaders are hopeful, and if
they can hold the strength which they
are counting upon at this time, they
will pull through, but at the best It
will be tight squeeze and it is unsafe
to prophesy regarding the outlook.
Nor has the Root vote added any
thing to the joy Of the Roosevelt lead
ers. Colonel Roosevelts strength, as
shown by that vote, was SOP, from
which there must be deducted 13 votes
which he got from Wisconsin and 9
which he got from North Dakota,
total Of %. When 1t comes time to
vote on candidate for the presidency,
those 20 votes will be cast for La Fol
lette.
Deducting them from the Roosevelt
column, therefore, the Roosevelt total
is brought down from 6O2 to 4S0, which
Is 60 short Of majority of the con-
vention. Conditions may arise which
will give Colonel Roosevelt a gain of
60 votes above the $50, but there is
an inclination to wonder If he did not
touch high-water mark and to believe
that his nomination will be much
more difficult than early estimates
have indicated.

Chicago, June 19.-When the mon

it included women of many creeds.
There were those who believed in
votes for women, those who believe
in pleasures for women, clothes for
women, society for women and even
those who did not believe in votes for
women. In fact, the anti-suffragettes

not even a mail coach passing them.
Evidently the Indians were SO trou-
blesome as to interrupt all trafic with
Santa F'e and the more western forts.
The slowness of their progress was
on account of the General, whose con-
dition became worse in spite of Fair
bain's assiduous attentions. With no
medicine the doctor could do but little
to relieve the sufferings of the older
man, although he declared that his
illness was not serious one, and
would yield quickly to proper medical
treatment. They constructed rude

there was no guessing to what ex-

BY morning the General was able to
sit his saddle again, and leaving him
with Neb to follow slowly, the others
spurred forward, discovered an outlet
through the bluff into the valley and
crossed the Santa Fe Trail. 1t was
not easy to discover where those in
advance had passed this point, but
they found evidence of late camp in
a little grove of cottonwoods beside
the river. There were traces of two
trails leading to the spot, one being
that of the same five horses they had
been following so long. the other not
