The innovation was so great that those
who were In the plot tipped of some Of
their friends to be on hand for the his
tory-making event; and these faithful
ones were on hand.
But there was a tender-hearted one in
their number. He knew well the tradi-

of anything that suggests of the sensa-

So he tipped OF the peace officials of

His face turned white as he heard the

BOTH SIDES CONFIDENT
Wilson Men in Iowa Conven-
ton Dispute Claims
for Clark.

BURLINGTON, Iowa, May 16-Before
the Iowa democratic convention was call
ed to order today it was predicted that
the vote on the question of instructing
the twenty six delegates to the Baltimore
convention for Champ Clark for President
would be exceedingly close.
The Clark men claimed to have 636
votes. or 119 more than the necessary
majority for instruction for their cand.-
date, but the Wilson leaders were con-
fident the resolution adopting the unit
rule and instructions would be defeated
by 200 votes.
The Wilson men were supported by
many friends Of Bryan and Harmon in
their opposition to the plan of instructing
for Clark.
If the resolution for instructions was
defeated. Iowa, 1t was predicted, would
send a divided delegation to Baltimore,
with twenty favorable to Clark and six
to Wilson.
At the last minute both sides decided
to name eight delegates at large with
half a vote each, instead of four, the
number allowed the state.

FIVE DISTRICTS TO VOTE.
Texas Republicans Will Elect Ten
Delegates to Chicago Today.

DALLAS. Tex, May 16.-Republicans OF
Texas in five districts are to have con-
ventions today to name two delegates
each to the national convention. Addi-
tional conventions will take place tomor-
row and Saturday. by which time the
republicans will have named delegates
from all the states sixteen districts
Three previous conventions have re-
suited in the naming Of two uninstructed
delegates and contests in the other two
districts
Today's conventions include two dis
tricts, the eighth and fourteenth, which,
according to unofficial returns of last
weeks county conventions. are both for
Roosevelt. In the three remaining dis
tricts TO act today it appears that unin-
structed or contested votes hold the bal
ance of power
In two of these districts, the twelfth
and the sixteenth, Roosevelt received
more instructed votes than Taft on un-
official returns. and in the other, the sec
ond district. Taft received more instruct
ed votes. In no instance, however. does
this preponderance give assurance OF
control.
Todays conventions are held as fol-
lows: Second, at Nacogdoches: eighth.
Houston: twelfth. Fort WORTH four

PENSION OPPOSED BY I. R.
BELIEVES GOVERNMENT SHOULD
 MAKE PROVISION.
Figures Annual Cost of Correspond ence After Leaving Office
 Is $5,o0o.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Nov. 25.-Col Theodore Roosevelt declined to be quoted as to his opinion of Andrew Carnegie's plan to pension eXpresi dents. Without quoting Roosevelt, il can be said that he regards such g personal pension as entirely improper There is no question that Roosevelt believes that the federal government should take some steps to provide suit able income for ex-presidents, but he scorns the idea that such provision should be made by an individual Roosevelts views on the proposal will probably be made clear in the next editorial in the Outlook
 RoOsevelt's own case is cited by some public men as showing the UT gent need of government provision fol ex-presidents. His mail has frequent ly exceeded 800 pieces a day. To re spond to such mail means $10 day for postage alone. Telegrams receiev6 and requiring immediate replies ex ceed this figure. Then there is the necessity for secretaries and stenog raphers to handle this correspondence In all Roosevelt figures that it costs him more than $5,000 a year, merely to attend to the bare details of being an ex-president.

 Then, if the Balkan allies disregard Austria's wishes in parceling out European Turkey, will come the crisis among the powers.
 Nothing definite had been heard con- cerning a modification of the allies armistice terms to Turkey, but that there would be modification was con. sidered certain and everything indi- cated that it would be of such na- ture that the sultan would accept it.
