Oyster Bay, June 1.-Roosevelt's line
Of battle at the Republican national
convention was formed today. At q
council of war at Sycamore Hill was
mapped out the campaign which it is
hoped will result in the capture of the
convention.
The first step is In the organization
OF the Roosevelt delegates who have
been elected or in which there has
been a contest.
BY this method it Is expected to
mobilize and drill an organization
which will act as a unit on every mat
ter coming before the convention.
Although Roosevelt decided to op-
pose the selection OF Root as tempo
rary chairman. 1t was indicated today
he would waive objections If it seemed
wiser for his supporters to reserve
their fire for more important contests.
Whether Roosevelt will go to Chicago
and lead the fight in person is now an
open question. Men who conferred
with Roosevelt today regarding the
plans represented Roosevelt delegates
from Illinois, Maine and North Caro-
lima.
Roosevelt said he wanted the hear
ings on the contested election Of dele
gates open to the press.
