 The contests which were begun by Representative Bailey are by the so- called Naturalization faction against the Sullivan faction. The fight prob ably will involve seats of more dele gates than any other that the national committee will be called upon to set tie.
 Representative Rainey, after filing the contests, declared that the Sullivan de- egates would be for Champ Clark for President on the first ballot, while the Hearst-H Harrison delegates were for Clark all the time Roger c. Sullivan, national committeeman of Illinois, heads the Sul- livan delegation, while Mayor Carter H. Harrison of Chicago is the first dele gate at large on the contesting delega- ton.
 The contests filed tonight are in ad- dition to the contest in Representative Rainey's own district.
 Within a few minutes after the Illinois contests were filed Secretary Woodson received notification by telegraph from James w Burke of Burlington, Vt, that he would contest the state and district delegates from Vermont.

GROUP OF BANKERS FOR SIX
 POWERS REACH AGREEMENT

restricted to the financing of China, all political questions being left to the powers
 The official statement points out that China last February requested financial assistance by advices against treasury bills to be redeemed from the first proceeds in the congratulations of the loan. Satisfactory guarantees were ob- tained from China after long nego- tiation. A further delay was caused by negotiations between the bankers themselves.
 Although difficult and protracted," says the statement these negotiations were conducted in friendly spirit. To meet the urgent needs of China such as the disbanding of the troops, the dis charge of current obligations and the setting up of the new administration. the groups made such advances as seemed necessary and are now submit ting the final agreement to China. Only part of the loan will be used in the first instance"
 The American bankers had predom- inant place in the conference in Paris, H. P. Davidson of New York presiding throughout the proceedings.

Those who went out to East Lake park yesterday in quest of fun and thrilling excitement were well repaid for the journey if just the display of fireworks that was given at the close oi the day had composed the sum total of the days offering. which wasn't the oase by any means. The whole park and all Its various concessions and amusement places kept the crowd as busy as bees from beginning to the close. but the monster display of pyro- technics burned is worthy of espe- cial mention-huge pin wheels, water falls, skyrockets and aerial displays of indeseribable shape and form to- gether with the most deafening can nonading held the crowd in wonder Tor more than half an hour--it was u display second 10 none shown in Bir- mlngham and reflects great credit upon the efforts of the park management to please its patrons

ATTEMPT ID KEEP WITNESS OFF STAND DarrOw Defense Attacks Eligibility of John R.
 Harrington

Los Angeles, June 2o.-An unexpected assault was made by the defense today on the eligibility as a witness of John R. Harrington, in the trial of c. S. Oar row for alleged jury bribery. Should the defense be upheld the states case against Darrow will suffer greatly, ac- cording to the prosecution, as Earring ton is said to be the link by which they hope to convict Darrow. Harrington had testified he was an attorney residing in Chicago, and that he had been employed by MT. Darrow on April 12, 1911.
 The defense objected To further ques- tjoning on the ground that the statutes forbid the examination of any attorney or secretary, or clerk of an attorney concerning any knowledge acquired in such capacity. The point will be argued tomorrow.
 Only two other witnesses were on the stand today. They were Charles F. Hunt and A. c. Lademe, vice president and paying teller respectively, of San Fran sisco bank, who testified that on Sep tember 9, 1911, O. A. Tveitmoe cashed a check for S10,000 signed by Frank Mor- rison and indorsed by Clarence Darrow.
 The money thus received, according to the states contention, was received by Darrow to corrupt jurors.

with an opportunity to vote for tnlro or dark horse candidates if they so chose The compromise talk was sec ond in point of interest to the exciting developments sureharging the bear ranks though the staunch Taft leaders there would be no compromise ground.
 Governor Deneen of Illinois, Governor Hadley of Missouri and some of their delegates sought out conservative leaders on the Taft side to see if something could not be done to Nert a party split
 Taft Is Strongest
 We will stay with President Taft, Senator Penrose said. He was requested to explain current rumors about the nomina- tion of third man. "So far all can see the strongest man developed" he said, "and we can do nothing until a roll call shall have demonstrated something. The leaders friends do not believe any neces- sity will arise now.
 The opinion of the Pennsylvania man was fairly accurate reflection of the attitude of most of the leaders of the stalwarts. Some, however, held the view that in the case of the nomination of MT. Roosevelt by bolting convention some other candidate than Mir Taft might more effectually hold the radical wing of the party in hand. By those holding this view the names of Governor Hadley, Jus tice Hughes, Senator cummins and Sen ator LaFollette were canvassed. Their possibilities were weighed. There were no general movements in behalf of either of the leaders, however, and spectators were convinced that there would be no move ment in favor of new man until after the struggle prescribed by MT. Penrose unless the President himself should be- come zealous.
 His friends are in close touch with him over the long distance telephone, but it is understood he has given no intimation of distrust of the situation so far as his own availability is concerned. Senator Crane, who attended a meeting of the Massachusetts delegation, when asked if the situation would require the nomination of third person, said that it would not and that Mir Taft would be nominated.
 H. M. LaFolette of Tennessee this fore noon, who Is cousin of Senator LaFol- lette, had a conference with William Barnes, Jr. It was said that MT. Barnes visitor had message from the Wisconsin leader regarding the situation as it re- lated to the LaF'ollette instructed men. The details of the conference were not disclosed.

the Baltimore convention. William R. Hearst, Senators Stone of Missouri, Chil- ton of West Virginia. former Senator Dubois of Idaho, the Clark campaign manager and Theodore Bell of California were among the speakers and political advisers who joined in the conference.
 The sentiment of the conference fa- vored Senator-elect Ollie James of Ken lucky for temporary chairman of the Baltimore convention but the selection of Alton B. Parker of New York by the arrangements committee at Balti- more took the force out of the move in that direction.
 The meeting was presided over by for mer Senator Dubois. The various dele gates told of conditions in their states.
 A statement subsequently, was issued declaring that the meeting developed that Speaker Clark had carried ma jority of the states and that his friends would control the convention: that the delegates would constitute themselves a committee to aid Manager DuBois in the Clark fight at Baltimore and would place themselves at the disposal of the Baltimore headquarters on Saturday.
 The conference will be resumed tomor- row.

Paris, June 20.-Reorganization of chin1 has been made possible by the complete understanding reached today by bankers representing the six great powers, the United States, Great Brit ain, Germany France, Russia and Ja- pan, to loan China ssOo,OOo,0 ,0O0. Russia today joined the five other powers in acquiescing in the agreement but stip- ulated slight change in the original formuSt. This was quickly accepted by all the powers
 Although the official statement given out by the bankers does not mention the fact, it is understood that Russia and Japan Specifically reserve the right to withdraw from participation in the loan at any time should they decide that their special political interests in China have become jeopardized.
