gressives would be included. Mr.. Nc
Cormick was in conference with Sena-
tor Thomas j. Walsh, who will have
charge of the Middle Western head
quarters, at Chicago, when the Robins
report reached his office. Senator
Walsh will move on to Chicago, and
Mr. Mccormick said he would probably
meet him there the first of next week,
stopping in Washington on the way TO
see President Wilson.
Senator Walsh issued a statement
after his talk with the chairman, in
which he declared that all the reports
that came to him were TO the effect
that Montana is safely Democratic"
He admitted, however, that most or
these reports were from Democratic
sources, and allowance should be made
for the enthusiasm of party workers.
"The Democratic candidates for Con-
gress two years ago." said Senator
Walsh, got majority over the COM
bined Republican and Progressive vote.
There were no local issues involved,
and the result was testimonial TO
the regard and esteem for the Presi-
dent throughout the state. His popu-
larity has grown in a very marked de-
gree since, so that on the whole the
| advantages are altogether with US IN
that state"
The Montana Senator pointed out, as
an evidence of Democratic growth IN
the West Tor the last few years, that
while at the election of 1904 every
state west Of the meridian Of Kansas
/ City, except Texas, gave its electoral
/ vote 20 the Republican nominee, and
| Senator Francis G.. Newlands, OF Ne
vada, was the only Democratic Senator
/ from all that territory, now there were
| fifteen Democratic Senators from the
same territory.
"We will doubtless secure the return
| Of Senator Ashurst, of Arizona; Sen
ator Pittman, of Nevada, and Senator
+ Myers, of Montana, whose states are
/ being contested" said Senator Walsh
"and there is an excellent chance OF
electing John Burke in North Dakota
b Governor Kendrick in Wyoming and
/ former Senator Turner in the State OF
/ Washington"
Nies Cron, who had charge OF the
Scandinavian Republican bureau in the
/ Mckinley campaign of 1896, and was
a widely known Republican campaign
orator, is out for Wilson, according
to an announcement at Democratic
headquarters yesterday. Mr.. Cron IS a
graduate of Harvard and makes his
home at the Harvard Club, in this
city. Mr.. Cron said that the Presi-
dents strength among the Scandina,
vians lay in the fact that he had kept
the country out of war.

The Women's Roosevelt League Is no
more. Yesterday its name was OF
fcially changed to the Women's New
York Committee of the National
Hughes Alliance. Under that name 1t
hopes to be a powerful factor In the
new campaign.
1t was explained yesterday in the
league headquarters at the Hotel Aston
that the spirit of Colonel Roosevelt
was still to flourish in the work OF the
organization and that the change had
been made merely to avoid confusion.
ave shall always be Roosevelt
women" said Miss Alice Carpenter,
chairman of the league. But our
present interest is TO work for the
election Of Mr.. Hughes, and we found
that our name occasioned a good deal
of Misunderstanding.
The first woman speaker OF the pres
ent campaign took the stump for
Hughes last night. Miss Wenona Mar
lin was one of the chief speakers OF
the evening at meeting in charge oil
both men and women of the National
Hughes Alliance, in the casino at ST
George, Staten Island. She told the
men of the audience why they should
vote for the Republican candidate for
President and the women how they
could be a vast aid in the campaign
although they still lacked the ballot
No man of the evening was accorded
so much applause as was given Mis-:
Marlin.

Vice-PreSidentiaI Nominee
Later Will Cover Path
Laid Out for Hughes.
g. o. p. HEADQUARTERS
LEAVE HOTEL ASTOR
National Fight Will Be Con-
Quoted Hereafter from
Upper Fifth Avenue.

Charles w. Fairbanks, of Indiana,
Vice Presidential nominee on the Re-
publican ticket, will make a whirlwind
campaign tour of the country, similar
in scope to that which the Republican
National Committee is planning for the
head of the ticket in September, soon
after Mr.. Hughes's return from Cali
fornia. Mr.. Fairbanks, it was said at
Republican national headquarters yes
terday, will follow the Presidential
candidate over practically the same
ground later in the campaign.
The campaign committee looks upon
Mr.. Hughes trip to the Pacific Coast,
on which he starts tomorrow, as
preliminary excursion and not an in
tcgral part of the more active campaign
which will follow in September and Oc-
tober. 1t is not likely, however, that
the nominee will go as far as Cali
fornia again, although many Of the
Western states through which he
pssser on this trip are expected TO be
included in the later itineraries.
Fairbanks Pleases Managers.
The campaign committee feels much
gratified at the decision of the Vice
Presidential nominee TO make a sweep
ing tour. His attributes as a cam
paigner are we'll known. In the CAM
ra!gn of 1904, when Colonel Roosevelt
wss serving out President Mckinley
term and was nominated for President,
the burden of the campaign speech
making throughout the country fell
upon Mr.. Fairbanks, then the Vice
Presidential nominee.
With Mr.. Hughes in Bridgehampton
preparing the speeches to be made on
| the Western trip, Chairman William
R. Wilcox, of the Republican National
| Committee, moved the headquarters
Yesterday from the Hotel Astor to the
new Guaranty Building. oil Fifth Ave
nue.. With thu exception OF the
Hughes Alliance Hhd the women's com,
mittee OF that organization, the HoteI
Aston headquarters were enureiI
/ cleared last night. Such rooms as VIII
be kept there hereafter will be for tne
exclusive use Of the nominee himself
as soon as the Alliance is moved into
the new headquarters.
Wilcox in Washington.
Chairman Wilcox left at noon fol
Washington to confer with Republican
Senators and Representatives who
have been unable TO get TO New lorH
10 see him. James b. Reynolds, sec
rotary OF the Republican National
/ Committee, and Ralph d. Cole, whc
assumed charge yesterday of the Re
publican speakers bureau, accompanied
/ Mr.. Wilcox. The latter expected tC
return at midnight, and plans to leave
here again tomorrow with Mr.. Hughes
when he starts on the Western trip
Mr.. Wilcox will go as far as Chicago
with the candidate. Before going u
Washington Chairman Wilcox said M
would announce the selection Of
manager for the Chicago headquarter'
after he reached that city, probabl,
Sunday.
Mr.. Cole, upon assuming. charge o
the speakers bureau. said that tn
campaign this year would be the mos
important one from the standpoint o
speaking that has ever been held II
this country He said the bureau
would have several hundred of tn
best speakers available.

ROBINS WON OVER
TO HUGHES'SSIDE
Chairman of National Bull
Moose Convention Said
to Have Changed Mind.

A report at Democratic national
headquarters yesterday that Raymond
Robins, who presided at the Progress
sive National Convention in Chicago,
had been seen riding up Fifth Avenue
with George W. Perkins created some
excitement and foreshadowed a prob
able disappointment to Chairman
Vance Mccormick and his co-workers
on the Wilson campaign staff. A men,
Der of the working force rushed into
Mr.. McCormick's Office and broke the
news.
They've got him." was his comment.
Robins wouldn't be riding around
with Perkins in broad daylight il he
intended to come to us"
Mr.. Robins had nothing to say FOR
himself on the subject yesterday, but
it was said on good authority that he
would come out for Hughes. The Dem
ocratic campaign forces had hopefully
looked forward to annexing the former
Progressive convention chairman to
their campaign committee. They felt
assured that cambridge Colby and
Matthew Hale, Of Massachusetts, vice
chairman of the Progressive National
Committee, would Join them after the
indianapolis conference Of Progress
sives yesterday with resolution
adopted against third ticket and ad
vising the Bull Moosers to vote "ac
cording to their conscience"
Hale and Colby are said TO be SLATED
for the campaign committee, and Chair
man Mccormick had hoped TO com
rlete the "big Progressive trlo,,' al
they called it. by adding Robins:

after the Perkins incident yesterday

APPORTIONMENT
IN 1907 ATTACKED
Next Election May Be
Under 1894 Plan of
Districting.

Albany, Aug. 3.-The possibility that
the next state election in November
may have to be held under the district
arrangement laid down by the appor-
tionment Of 1894. which provided for
only fifty Senator'S, lOomed up tonight
as a result of the renewal of the at
tack upon the constitutionality of the
1907 apportionment in New York to-day.
William Rathbone, of New York, at
tackled the 1907 law upon the ground OF
inequality of population in adjoining
New York districts. the same reason
for which the Court of Appeals re-
Gently declared the 1916 apportionment
act unconstitutional.
Attorney General Woodbury., on whom
papers in the suit were served tonight,
named Deputy Attorney General Mer-
ton Z. Lewis to defend the action. Mr..
Lewis represented the state during the
arguments on the 1916 apportionment.
The Rathbone suit will be heard at a
special session of Part !, Supreme
Court, in New York City Monday.
The action 10 have declared uncon-
stitutional the 1907 apportionment is
the second brought. When the first
was fled il was withdrawn, as the act
had been nullifed by the 1916 appor-
tionment, which was then technically
IN force.
Rathbone charges that the 1907 APP
portionment Is unconstitutional be-
cause a difference OF 5000 in popula-
ton existed in two adjoining districts
in Kings County when the act became
a law. A similar difference in popula-
ton in adjoining districts under the
1916 apportionment inyalidated the act.
