UNWISE EVEN
IF TAFT HAS
The VOTES
THEY MAY turn TO HUGHES
Taft Men Are Looking Toward
the Justice

Washington, d. c., June 3.-SenatoI
w. Murray Crane, of Massachusetts, is
| said to admit in whispered confidence
to his friends that he has the gravest
i doubts about the possibility of put
ting Taft over" at Chicago and to urge
the necessity of seeking a way, if il
is possible to find one, whereby a
compromise may be effected on Asso-
! ciate Justice Hughes without permit
ting Colonel Roosevelt to slip in and
run away with enough Taft delegates
to nominate him while the Taft forces
are being transferred to the Associate
Justice.
Senator Crane is reported to have
! made careful tabulation of the dele
gates counted on to support the Pres
I ident and he has been able to find only
| $50 of them. Included in this tabula-
ton are 70 from New York 1t de-
| quiTes $40 to nominate. The Massa-
chusetts Senator holds the view that :;
would be in the highest degree unwise,
even if it were entirely feasible, to
/ seek to force the nomination of the
President with this meagre majority OF
! ten delegates in the convention in
view of all the circumstances.
! The Senator is reliably reported tc
in tr
I bring about a compromise on Hughes
as to, obtain from William Barnes, Jr
3 promise to accept the Associate JUS
tice if that be necessary in order tc
defeat Colonel Roosevelt.
So far as can be gathered, the Crane
plan seems to be to have the 10 New
York delegates, who are controlled By
Barnes, cast their vote for Hughes in
the early ballots in the convention.
Thus neither Taft nor Roosevelt would
obtain a majority in these early ba,
lots. In the meanwhile all the efforts
of the Taft leaders would be concen
trated on holding the rest of the Taft
forces intact 1t is figured that if this
. can be done through two or three bal
, lots the Taft forces will have their
fighting spirit aroused and will become
thoroughly welded together. Then the
! transfer to the compromise candidate
can be attempted with a reasonable de-
| gree of certainty that it will succeed
In discussing this plan this after
noon, one of the leading Taft men
from the South, whose state delegation
il. the Chicago convention will be prac-
Z tically solid for the President, de-
Clared it would not work He said the
i instant there was a hint of cOmpro-
mise the deuegation from his state
would flock to Colonel Roosevelt. No
power on earth could stop them, and
it would be impossible to transfer
/ them to any other candidate. There
fore, if the only hope of preventing the
domination of Colonel Roosevelt lay in
transferring the Taft serenfth to
Hughes, the defeat of Roosevelt could
hot be brought about.
Senator Crane not only has practi-
J cally given up hope of nominating
President Taft at Chicago, but he be-
lieves it will be impossible to elect
Senator Elihu Root as temporary
| chairman of the convention. The SEN
alto saw President Taft to tell him
the coclusion he had reached

WANTS UPPER BIRTH LEFT UP
Mr.. LenrOOt Offers Freak Bill in the

Washington, D. c., June 3.-Repre-

respective of whether it is to have an

opinion that an upper berth should
not be prepared for occupancy simply
because the lower berth of the same
section is to be occupied. 1t adds to
the travellers discomfort, he declared,
and it is high time the Government
should step in and do something.

LETTERS THREATENED JUDGE

Intended Victim Of Bomb Admits Re-
ceiving WARNINGS During Brandt Case
New York, March 19.-In spite of the
fact that he had denied it before, Judge
Rosalsky, in whose apartment a bomb
that be had received In the mail ex-
ploded, inJuring Inspector Owen Ea-
gan, who was examining 1t, admitted
that he had received many threatening
letters recently, during the course of
the Brandt case. These letters, he
said, in view of the recent develop
ments, he will turn ver to the police.
Some of them showed that their writ
ers possessed more education than is
usual with anonymous letter writers.
Police Commissioner Dougherty put
q squad of detectives ON the trail OF
the bomb sender, but refused to say
what progress had been made. Judge
Rosalsky says that he has as little idea
as any one as to who sent him the
bomb, but that he doesn't accept the
police theory that the man who mailed
1t was the same who sent the bomb
that killed Grace Walker last Feb
ruary.
Despite Judge Rosalsky's lack of
faith in the police theory, Commission
er Dougherty is mistaken in his belief
that the man who sent the judge the
bomb and the man who made the bomb
that killed Grace Walker are one and
the same.
