TWO TEST VOTES IN REPuBLI.
CAN CONVENTION HAVE BEEN
WON BY TAFT SUPPORTERS
SENATOR ROOT DEFEATS McGov.
ERN FOR TEMPORARY CHAIR.
]. MAN BY $50 TO SOP

The republican national convention
assembled in Chicago on Tuesday for
the purpose of nominating a candidate
for President Of the United States. To
that city has been transferred the ter
rifle struggle that for months has
been going on between the followers
and President Taft and former Presi-
dent Roosevelt, for that nomination.
Mr.. Roosevelt has appeared personally
on the scene of battle to rally his wa
vering columns. Furious]y the con-
test is being waged. The first bone
of contention was the temporary
Craftsmanship and this was won by
Senator Root, Taft's candidate, by a
vote Of 55S to 502 against Gov. McGov.

nor Deneen's amendment to have only
none contested delegates vote on re.
port of the committee on credentials
The vote to lay on the table carried
by 564 to 51U-another victory by
President Taft's supporters. This
vote is a good index of the President S
strength in the convention and if his
supporters continue to stick, his nom
ination is assured. But there is yei
a great deal of uncertainty as to the
final outcome. It is believed, though
that Roosevelt is out of the race, and
that if Taft does not win, a dark
horse, possibly Senator Root, may be
the conventions choice.
