Chicago, June 21.-When the reso-
lutions committee adjourned at II
o'clock today to permit its members
to attend the republican convention
the platform virtually was completed.
The draft of the document read to the
full membership apparently proved
acceptable. The members generally
expressed satisfaction over the planks
dealing with monopoly and the
courts.
The platform is more concise than
those of the recent past. 1t is espe'
oially noteworthy in that it does not
deal with particular measures, but
rather with issues in general No di-
rect reference by name is made to
any pending legislation. The admin
istration is commended and Presi-
dent Taft is complimented for his
'comprehensye fair and vigorous
dealings with all issues" The admin
istrations ofsRoosevelt and Mckinley
also are extolled.
The committee will meet later in

THE THREE-TIME CANDIDATE
SAYS A PROGRESSIVE SHOULD
BE SELECTED
SAYS THE PARTY ASKS IT
1T is HIS BELIEF FORMER JUDGE
DOES NOT REPRESENT
DEMOCRACY

Chicago, June 21.-Branding Judge
Alton B. Parker as a "reactionary,"
William Jennings Bryan today tele-
graphed to number of prominent
democrats throughout the country,
appealing to them to join him in pre-
venting the election of Judge Parker
as temporary chairman of the Balti-
more convention. The telegraph was
addressed to Speaker Clark, Cover
nor Wilson Of New Jersey, Governor
Burke of North Dakota, Governor
Foss Of Massachusetts,, Governor
Baldwin Of Connecticut and Mayor
Gaynor of New York.
Colonel Bryan's appeal follows:
I'm the interest of harmony sug-
gested TO the subcommittee Of the
democratic national committee the
ACCESSIBILITY of recommending as tenn
porary chairman some progressive
acceptable to the leading progressive
.@-.,1iaa4s -foE--the- presidential .nomi-
nation.
Il took it for granted that ne :
mitteeman interested in democratic
success would desire to offend the
members of a convention overwhelm-
ingly progressive by naming reac-
tionary to sound the keynote Of the
campaign.
Eight members of the sub-commit-
tee, however, have over the protest
of the remaining eight agreed upon
not only reactionary but upon the
one democrat who among those not
candidates for the presidential
nomination is in the eyes of the pub
lie, most conspicuously identified
with the reactionary element Of the
party.
'I shall be pleased to join you and
your friends in opposing his selection
by the full committee Of by the con-
vention. Kindly answer here"
Mr. Bryan declined to discuss his
action further than to say that the
telegram spoke plainly for itself.

in their seats and delivered the Jer-
sey yell that has become familiar in
the convention.
West Virginia answered Jersey and

yelling subsidized

HADLEY IS TURNED DOWN
HIS MOTION NOT TO ALLOW CON-
TESTED DELEGATES TO

CHAIRMAN ALLOWS ALL EXCEPT
ALABAMA REPRESENTA-
TNEs TO VOTE.

Chicago, June, 2l.-by Vote ol
500 to 49S the republican national
convention this afternoon tabled the
motion Of Governor Hadley OF Mis-
souri, to the effect that no contested
delegates should be allowed to vote
upon the report of the credentials
committee seating the Taft delegates
from the Ninth Alabama district. The
proceeding was big victory for
President Taft, as it showed for the
third time his strength with the del
egates.
The victory was complete, when'
few minutes after the completion
of the ballot, the majority was adopt
ed without roll call.
Opening the Convention.
Chairman Root announced the first
business to be the report of the COM
mittee on credentials. The report
recommended the seating of the Taft
delegates in the Ninth Alabama DIS
trict. The report was presented by
w. t. Dovell of Washington. The
report sustained the findings OF the
national committee.
R. R. Mccormick of Illinois present
ed a minority report in favor OF the
Roosevelt contestants. Mccormick
said the majority report had been
..spring upon" the minority in the
committee without time for proper
report of the minority. He said he
hoped there would be opportunity lat
er for "a proper presentation Of the
facts in the case.''
Chairman Root started to say tnat
while there could be strictly speak
ing. no such thing as a minority re-
port-. Instantly there broke
out a storm of Kisses and "boohing."
Mr.. Root, coming to the front of the
platform, waited for order and re-
marked that unless he was overruled
bv the convention, he would assume
permission to receive the minority
report. 1t was the turn OF the anu
Roosevelt people to deride the hiss
ers and they did SO. Hadley moved
that the minority report be substitute
ed for the majority and adopted by
the convention. He asked unanimous
consent for statement by McCor
mick.
Robert ]. Walker of Virginia tried
to move to lay the motion on the Ia
bic. The chairman ruled it out OF or
der. Unanimous consent was giver
and Mr. Mccormick took the plat
form. His statement was one Of the
dissent by the minority members Of
the credentials committee to the ma

AS Hadley rose, delegates all ovel
the hall shouted for him to take th'
platform He did so ana was recelv
ed with applause. Governor Hadles
presented resolution which would
prevent a vote on the question by any
of the delegates now under contest.
Chairman Root overruled the poin
of order, but said he did so because
he wanted the convention to pass
upon a point so vitally important t
the interests Of the republican par
ty. James E. Watson moved to tabl'
the Hadley resolution. A roll cal
was demanded and begun by states
