the Harmon canvass; Senator Atlee
resentatives Bathrick. Denver, Cooke,
Cox, Post, Allen, Buckley and Anderson,
and a delegation of local democrats.
Throughout the afternoon and evening
many old frineds called to pay their re-
spects and to talk over the political
situation. Concerning his candidacy, Gov.
Harmon last night said:
Il have been very much gratified at
the activity of my friends in all sections
more than friendly interest in my behalf
is the highest compliment they can pay
me.
Il have believed from the beginning of
the campaign that the democratic party
is bigger than any one man or any half
dozen men. and that when the convention
sits at Baltimore 1t will consider pri-
marily the best interests of the party,
and will draft a platform and name
candidate solely with the view Of merit
ing the approval of the American people
at the polls next November. That any
considerable number of my fellow-demo-
Gratis should regard me as an available
candidate for the presidency is source
Of great satisfaction to me-

the other candidates. to down Wilson.
The following was issued from Wilson
headquarters last night:
1.-The dreibund assignment of candi-
dates to beat Wilson II they can is to

and neighboring states.
THE Wilson managers instead Of
protesting against this arrangement OF
strength, welcome it. In the first place,
it is a tacit confession by all the other
candidates put together that their COM
bined strength throughout the nation is
not equal to Wilson's. They are willing
to put their candidate against the field
or any part Of the field. and after the
convention to put him against Taft or

Roosevelt Arraigns the Press

Col. Roosevelt upon his return to Oyster
Bay last night dictated the following
statement:
Owing to the suppression Of news by
the majority Of the New York newspapers
and the deliberate choking of the chan
nels Of information to the public, people
in New York do not realize how deeply
stirred the country has been by the in
fanny of the so-called primaries Tuesday
last in this city.
1T was an infamy unmatched even by
the kindred infamies perpetrated on be-
half of Mr.. Taft in indianapolis and Den
yer. 1t is probably inevitable that we
shall see such infamies repeated as long
as our people tolerate the alliance be-
tween crooked politics and crooked bust
ness.
THE conduct of some of the New York
papers who have defended this election Is,
If possible, just a trifie worse than that
of the perpetrators of the fraud. Wednes-
day these papers announced the so-called
election as a crime and farce: but when
certain of these papers realized that by
telling the truth they might do damage to
the representatives of the combination of
crooked politics and crooked business,
which they have been championing they
instantly stopped.''

For the purposes of the territorial con-
vention Alaska elects delegates by ju-

tricts, each having fifty votes in the con-
vention. The district delegates were
chosen at mass primaries in which the
vote cast Appropriated 20 per cent of
the vote cast at the last election for ter

NEW YORK, April 1.-Robert Loftin
Newman. an artist who had wide ac-
quaintance among the painters and sculp-
tors of this city, and who had been we'll
known for his color work, was found
dead in his room at 203 East 18th
street yesterday morning with the gas of
his heating stove turned on full. A single
gas jet on the wall was burning brightly
when his friend Wallace Sawyer with
the landlord of the house. broke in the
door and found Newman dead in bed
The bed had been pushed against the
door and the door was locked. In spite
Of this. however. the police and New
mans friends believe death to have been
accidental.

his sight had been failing Of late years.
but when he was last seen he was in the

cording to his friend Daniel c. French.

None Of Mr.. Newman's friends knew
much Of the aged artists family affairs
He was born in Richmond, Va, and
served through the civil war in the Con-
federate army. After the war he went
to France and studied with MiIlet. He
came to New York several years ago and
had had studio on 23d street. being en-
gagged almost continuously in painting
MIR. Newman was a philosopher, said
his friends, man who had seen the
world and a most interesting character.
He had little money. but that did not
seem to trouble him much. He is thought
to have been unmarried and to have no
living relatives except g. sister in Texas
and a nephew. Henry Lennon, in Ten
neSsee.
In recent years. Mr.. French said, New
mans eyesight had been failing and he
had shown his advanced age, although
he still declared himself to be young
man. This failure Of his eyees had had
a marked effect on his recent work, and
he had done nothing of value for some
time. Newman had complained to friends
recently that times were hard for him
and that he had not sold pictures in the
last two years.
