The Taft bureau at once took note
of the letter and its obvious implica-

While factional leaders were closet
ed in earnest consultation late tonight
the lobby of the headquarters hotel
swarmed with arguing delegates,
lesser politicians and hangers-on.
Several times the bystanders were
forced to interfere with enthusiasts
whose feelings were growing too bel
ligerent.
Late tonight a squad of Roosevelt
supporters filed into the lobby armed
with megaphones and a new Teddy
song. They lined up at one end of the
room and attempted to start their vocal
fireworks. But FLOOD of jeers follow
ed and their attempt to sing degener-
ated into a cheering contest and soon
the rival squads were swinging
through the lobby, elbowing and
shouldering their way through the
crowd.
Pandemonium broke loose and for
"A time the entire lobby seethed with a
cheering, hat-waving mob. over in
the corner a solitary policeman lean

The announced departure of Theo-

Chicago formed the main spring for
the activities of the Taft bureau here
today.
Tonight three statements were
issued from Taft headquarters-two
by Director Mckinley and one by
William Barnes, Jr., of New YORK.
OF these two were inspired by
Roosevelt's start for Chicago.
Director Mckinley fatty declared

virginia and Washington contests re-
mained as the struggles In which the
Roosevelt leaders are to center their
strength tomorrow.
In the three districts where Roese-

The early termination of the days
proceedings resulted from the desire
of President Taft's attorneys for
more time to prepare the cases in
volving the thirty contested delegates
from Texas. Colonel Cecil Lyon, the
Texas committeeman. said the

The remaining contests include

REBELS RAISE LARGE

Chihuahua, Mex, June 14.--While
the federal and rebel armies are
maneuvering about below here, the
revolutionist government has taken
advantage of tho iuii to enrich the
treasury. Today a plan was discov-
cred by which more than a million
dollars Will be obtained by the rebels

family, wealthy land owners In north
ern Mexico and the chief henchmen

cattle bought by Charles r. Hunt, of
El Paso. Instead of paying Terrazas
for the cattle. Hunt will be required
to send the money To rebel headquar-
ters here and precautions have been
taken that the cattle are not moved
to the United States until payment is
made.
Terrazas had been solicited for aid
by the rebels. but pleaded lack of
casa whereat the revolutionists point
ed at his cattle and significantly sug-
gested that his pending deal with Mr..
Hunt. of FL Paso, might furnish the
wherewithal.
The rebels also VIII secure the ex-
port tax on the cattle, realizing near

an earlier shipment of cattle of the

stock with difficulty, being twice held
up To pay an export tax. Through
