Possibility Of Republicans

Together Appeared Renete
at a Late Hour Today

Chicago. June 3 ls:l5 p. m-) -
Every outward sign and every obtain

the political situation at this hour.
The republican convention. held il

far from the selection Of candidate

IL had admittedly reached an inpaass
and was awaiting the next move of
the progressives. 1
The bull moose convention, divided
within itself, and apparently entirely
out Of the control Of rs leaders, va
momentarily expected to break the
leash held by George w. Perkins. ana
to proceed with the nomination of
Theodore Roosevelt. At this hour
Perkins was still talking hopefully of
harmony. The old guard lssdsss -
|lieved no harmony was posai6ls II

Justice Hughes still locInsd u the
most likely nominee o. the republf-
cans. but viii only hold this place -

ination drawing the progressives back
into the ranks. The justice Il scarce
!ly more popular with the leaders than
II. r. His steadfast refusal to pull
the situation out Of the IRE. ~ It b
figured he might, Is causing him to
be charged with responsibility for the
deadlock.
At the same time Hughes can have
the nomination for q nod--if he viii
only nod so the progressives, as well
as the republicans. can see him.
Roosevelt's statement that he u
willing to como to Chicago II request
ed by the republicans. has resulted in
Ino mad summons. The colonel's bid
for an invitation is claiming the at
tention OF the leaders this afternoon.
That Is all II Is likely to do. Unless
the colonel cares to let 1t be known
before hand what he will say II given
the privilege to address the conven-
tion. he will not bs invited.
