are:

The news that Old Guard leaders OF
the Republican party. meeting privily at
French Lick Springs Ind. have decided
that col. Roosevelt has been eliminated
as a dangerous candidate for the nomi-
nation for President and that only JUS
tlcc Hughes stands in the way OF an out
right Old Guard convention triumph came
AS no particular surprise to poll
tlcians IN this city.
Regarded strictly from the Old Guard
viewpoint. the logic of recent events was
indisputably indicative that the breeze Is
no longer from the Roosevelt quarter. and
was reason enough for the standpatters'
little jollincation in Senator Tom Tag
CARTS spa. Looking at the situation
through Old Guard eyes. which may or
may not have "a slight touch OF astigna- :
tism. politicians OF this city agree that
the tolonefs chances OF clutching In 1916
the prize that eluded his grasp in 1912
are waning perceptibly with the con-
vention barely five weeks IN the future.
The conclusions that moved the East

been called into conference with Senator
