bled this morning at IL o'clock in the
red room of the Willard. The contest
between the cities had narrowed down
to Chicago and st. Louis. with Con-
gressman Julius Kahn and other San
Franciscans looming menacingly in the
background. Mr.. Kahn was especially
active just before the committee was
called to order by Chairman Hilles. and
gave rise to a runor in the hotel lob
bies that San Francisco had a special
card to play that would be brought
forth at the presentation of its argu-
ment before the committee.

three States have ratified the tnetative
plan of the national committee in this
respect. and that these States control

question. There are four States that
have ratified the committee plan, but
have not reported.
The arrangement OF an order of busi-
ness was taken up Immediately after
the appointment of committees on call
and appointment. II was decided to
make the selection of a place for the
convention the first order. and arrange
ments were made to give the delegates
from each city in the contest half an
hour for argument.
The matter Of place will then be defi-
nitely decided and the report OF the
committee on call fixing the time for
the convention will be received. Fol-
lowing this will come the hearings that
