Chicago, June 21:-As illustrat-
ing the completeness of the break
between the new Progressive party
and the regular Republican organi-
zation, plans are being worked out
by the Roosevelt managers, looking
toward a big non-partisan progress
| i've convention to bo held early in
August, at which a nation wide or
ganization can be perfected, a plat
form adopted and q ticket named.
Unless some action of the regular
Republican convention now in ses-
sion calls for an earlier action by
the Progressives this plan viii be
carried out.
Woodrow Wilson IS the man al
ready talked OF as the running mate
for Roosevelt, assuming that Roose-
welt will be the candidate of the new
party and that Wilson will not be
named at Baltimore. Bryan is also
prominently mentioned. 1t is CON
tended by George L. Record, of
New Jersey, who Is strong for this
son are really radical of equal de-
gree. and belong in the same party.
Take Up Alabama Contests.

waiting Chairman Root called the
session to order. The invocation by
Rev. Shaw was first rendered then
Root announced the convention
would take up the discussion of the
Alabama district, the report on
which the credentials committee
sent to the convention hall with w.
the majority report in the Ala
bama and Arizona cases was ready.
but the convention was waiting for
the Roosevelt people to complete
the minority report.
Devine sent word from the COM
mittee room that the partial report
was being held up by the Roosevelt
men. He said some Of them wanted
the entire matter held up until the
completed report was ready.
Governor Hadley moved the sub
stitution of the minority report for
the majority and asked that Nc
Cormick be given unanimous con-
sent to read brief dealing with the
question. A Virginia delegate NOV
ed to lay the Hadley motion and
the minority report ON the table
Hadley raised the point of order
that this could not be, because
unanimous consent to Mccormick to
address the convention had been
given.
McCormick's statement held that
the Taft convention In the ninth
Alabama district was irregular and
a bolting one and that the Roose-
welt delegates were the only legal
delegates elected In that district.
AS he read the report the Taft men
occasionally interrupted with
laughter.
Plank Denouncing Recall.
AS further indication that the
regular Republicans have decided to
draw the line sharply between radi-
calism and conservatism and that
the party will stand squarely, the
subcommittee on resolutions today
wrote into the temporary drafe of
platform a plank denouncing the
recall of judges and the recall of
judicial decision. 1t Is expected
that the factions Of the Progressives
who did not subscribe to the Roose-
welt bolt and who intended to re-
main regular" will oppose the
plank in the full committee and
even on the floor of the convention.
But it Is expected that the plank
will stand. Whatever its fate the
LaFollette men will conduct a COM
plete platform of their own as a
minority report. New difficulty
over the tariff declaration developed
today and 1t ia an entirely new
plank that is being drafted.
