Roosevelt MObbed by
Party of Chicago Friends
Special to the Telegraph

Chicago, ILL.,, May 80. - There
were absolutely no precautions taken
TO keep Theodore Roosevelt from be-
ing mobbed when he reached the La
Sale Street Station here late yester-
day afternoon on his trip from New
York to Kansas City.
No police protection was afforded
at the station and the result was that
Colonel Roosevelt was hustled here
and there, pushed, pulled, showed
about and manhandled by the enorm-
Gus crowd that filed the station and
the streets outside.
Newspapermen and committeeman
fought to clear space around Col
onel Roosevelt and to make a way
for him to get through the station to
where an automobile awaited him,
but it was hard work and took many
minutes.
Preparedness and War
To the newspapermen Colonel
Roosevelt made a brief address on
preparedness as a prevention of war.
He characterized as ridiculous the plea
that military preparedness invites
war. ''If you don't let your sons learn
to write" he said, they won't turn
advocate the abolition of writing in
the public schools to prevent boys be-
coming forgers as 1t is to declare that
we should not give military training
to our boys for fear that they will
bring about a war"
Brumbaugh to Open Quarters
The total number of contests filed
thus far is 40, which involve the right
of 62 delegates to seats in the con-
vention.
Senator John w. Weeks, of Massa-
chusetts, will arrive tomorrow to re-
main until after the convention.
Campaign headquarters for Senator
L. Y. Sherman, of Illinois; Senator AL
bert B. Cummins, of Iowa; Senator
Robert M. LaFollette, of Wisconsin,;
Philander c. Knox, of Pennsylvania,
and Governor M. G. Brumbaugh, OF
Pennsylvania. will be opened June 1.
Two additional booms of candidates
for the Republican nomination for
President were brought to Chicago to-
day. They were those of Charles
Evans Hughes, of New York and T.
Coeman dupont of Delaware.
Frank Fl. Hitchcock accompanied
by William L. Ward. former Republi-
can National Committeeman from New
York. launched the pre-convention
campaign in the interest of Justice
Hughes. Governor Whitman, of New
York, will place Mr.. Hughes in nomi-
nation, according to present plans

ers that such a meeting is called with
out authority or right.
The usual and proper place for
such q meeting is in Chicago the day
before the convention. The count is
not yet complete. All of the returns
are not in and several counties are yet
to be heard from.
ular Philadelphia meeting will not be
attended by delegates pledged to sup
port Governor Brumbaugh.
The support of the following dele
gates who were elected was promised
to the Governor either by their sworn
pledges, or by personal assurances
made by them, or by their political
sponsors and they were aided to their
election by the campaign committee
for a Reunited Republican Party and
by the friends of the Governor.

II am reliably informed since the
election that the Governor will receive
the aid of at least three others, and
possibly six.
ITO show the extremity to which the
opponents of the Governor have been
forced in some cases where the dele
gates have refused to go to the meet
ing on Wednesday of this week, they
have enlisted the presence of alternate
delegates both at large and district
No alternate has any right to represent
a delegate except in The absence OF
delegates in the convention. The ma
tional committee in the call for its
election of delegates pledged itself and
the party to the upholding of the
State laws, and further pledges the
party that there will be no fiasco as oc-
CURED in 1912 in the making up of the
temporary roll, when duly elected and
certified delegates were cast aside.
The scheme of Senator Penrose of sub
stituting subs srvient alternates in the
place of regular delegates at his rump
meeting on Wednesday is something
that he well knows will not be toler-
ated. 1t shows his desperation.
II have also received inquiries from
members of State committee elected
on ticket friendly to the Governor OF
the proposed meeting for Wednesday,
May 81. AS that is regularly called,
assume that it will be attended to by
all who desire to go and | know of no
reason for any absences"
Congressman John r. K. Scott, OF
Philadelphia, who was renominated
for ess-at-large to-day filed a
statement showing that he had spent
$2,S04.15 in his campaign and that he
had unpaid bills amounting to S3,-

tions and similar items made up most
of the list of expenditures

RAILROAD WORK
KEEPS MOVING
Rain and Labor Shortage Has
Caused Some Delay; East
bound Hump Ready

Railroad improvements in and about
Harrisburg are moving slowly but
surely. The scarcity of laborers is
still hindrance to rapid work. The
Robert Grayce Company, contractors
in charge of the concrete work on the
Cumberland Valley Railroad bridge,
look for better progress after the
trestle work is completed from the
island to the Harrisburg shore and the
narrow-g gauge line to carry the con-
crete is in operation.
This firm has completed the con-
crete portion of the bridge over Null
berry street The old steel bridge is
now removed as far west as the island
and the concreters will not have any
interference. Concrete work on the
northern portion of the bridge has
been under way for several weeks and
will move more satisfactorily when
the concrete is furnished more
promptly.
Freight Foundation
The work on the freight station
foundations in South Harrisburg has
been slow. Rain interfered with this
contract by John l., l.. Kuhn & Co.,
who are putting down the concrete
foundations, and have been working
short-handed at times, but most of
the excavations are completed and
the concrete workers will be able to
move ahead without any further de-
lays, barring bad weather conditions.
The new eastbound hump at Maclay
street yards of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Is about ready for service. 1t is
probable an order placing this i'm
provement in service will be issued
this week.
The work of placing an additional
track between Rutherford yards of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railway has
advanced rapidly. The grading is
nearing completion and the work of
putting down the tracks, which will
be done by the company, is under
way. This track will connect with the
main line at Paxton street.

of Mr. Brown, and one which at
tracted wide comment, was the fact
that he did not say for what the people
he mentioned were pledged to the
Governor, whether for President or
for chairman. The Penrose people at
once claimed that Delegates Beale,
Fisher, Jermyn, Watres, Berger, Cole
man, Stamm, Adamson, Baker and
others were for Penrose for chair
man, although some of them would
likely give the Governor presidential
Give Out List of Delegates
In addition to making the claim
Mr.. Brown urged that friends of the
Governor should stay away from the
delegate conference scheduled for
Philadelphia tomorrow, although he
admitted that the State committee
meeting would be legal. Last night
Paul N Furman, of the Brumbaugh
Headquarters, put out typewritten lists
of State committeeman with friends
of the Governor starred. The letter
made no request and its object was
not understood. Committeeman Smith
and Etter, of this county, were classed
among the Governors friends.
A. Carson Stamm. who visited the
Governor at the Executive Mansion
last night, told friends he was not
pledged to anyone for anything and
that he intended to attend the dele
gate meeting.
Charles johnson, former State In
surance Commissioner, who was here
to-day, said that there was no doubt
about Senator Penrose winning all
along the line. 1t was Mr.. Johnson's
first visit here since he resigned and
he was warmly greeted by friends.
Moved to Philadelphia
The Brumbaugh headquarters staff
moved to Philadelphia to-day to be
near the scene of to-morrow's meet
ings and theer were no statements to
be found. Thursday the advance
guard will mobilize here and proceed
to Pittsburgh where Henry G. Wasson,
the expiring national committee man
will join it and Friday the head
quarters of the Governor will be
opened in Chicago. Paul ~ Furman
will be in charge and will be joined by
Attorney General Brown Sunday and
by the Governor on Monday. 1t will
then be decided who is to present the
Governors name. Congressman w.
S. Ware may do the speech making.
The efforts of the Governors people
were being bent to-day to keep people
away from the conference of delegates
and the claim Is being made that
the conference should be postponed
until TueSday AT Cnlcago. On the
way some delegates act in this matter
will depend heads of their henchmen
at tho Capitol The general orders
fo~ dismissals are about ready, but
some will be held up until after the
Others may he heard of

ALL HARRISBURG
BOWER OF BEAUTY
Hundreds of Porch and Win
dow Boxes Up and Many
More to Come

All Harrisburg is bower of flowers
to-day. Hundreds of private resi-
dences and business places have been
decorated with porch and window
boxes. The Telegraph's movement to
make Harrisburg the Flower City of
Pennsylvania has met with wonder
full success. The city never was so at
tractive as to-day. Dozens upon doz-
ems of boxes went up in the past few
days and so pressing was the demand
that many could not be completed in
time.
The time for entering the contest ex-
pired to-day, although a few late COM
ers remain to be tabulated the list is
now practically complete In a few
days delegation will make the rounds
of the city, inspecting the boxes. Two
other inspections will be made one in
midsummer and one in early Fall to
complete the awards.

The Legislature of 1915 enacted a sim
liar compilation relating to borough
laws into a code and the township code
was assembled under authority given
last year. John H. Fertig and Frank
NJ. Hunter compiled the acts under di-
rection of James n. Moore, of the bu-
reau
Mr.. Moore in his preface says that
the acts have been published in the eX-
act language as they appear in the
pamphlet laws and that the arrange
ment of the material was made with
the view of setting out, under appro-
pirate headings, the laws particularly
applicable to each class of townships.
Considerable trouble was experienced
with the numerous acts relating to
municipalities" says Mr.. Moore.
while the supreme court has lately
ruled that first class township is not
municipal corporation, there are sew
eral late cases decided by the lower
courts which rule that a township is
a municipality. Pursuant to this rul-
ing number of acts relating to mu-
inequalities have been included"

Reliable Laxative

Child Was Badly Constipated
Until Mother Tried
Simple Remedy.

In spite of every care and atten-
ton to diet, children are very apt to
become constipated, a condition re-
sponsible for many ills in after life
unless promptly relieved.
Mrs. c. w. Wilson, of Shelbyville,
Tenn, had trouble with her baby boy,
Woodrow, until she heard of DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin. She writes, Il
san safely say DIR. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin is the best remedy of its kind
on earth. 1t acts so gently and yet so
surely. Little Woodrow was very
badly constipated and we could find
nothing that gave relief until we tried
your Syrup Pepsin, which gave i'm
mediate relief"
DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin is a
compound of simple laxative herbs,
free from opiates or narcotic drugs,
mild in action, positive in effect and
pleasant to the taste. 1t has been pre-
scribed by DR.. Caldwell for more than
a quarter of century and can now
be had for fifty cents bottle in any

RACERS TUNE Up
FOR SWEEPSTAKES
Fastest Cars in America Line
Up on Indianapolis
Speedway
By Associated Press

Indianapolis, Ind, May S0.-More
than a score of the fastest racing cars
in America lined up to-day for the
annual running of the international
sweepstakes on the Indianapolis motor
speedway. For the first time the
speedway classic will be over less than
900 miles, this years contest being for
800 miles. The prize list also has been
reduced from $4,000 to 100000.
Some of the best names in the mo-
tor racing world appear in the list Of
drivers.
Barney Oldfield says this is his fare
well appearance as a driver in a big
race.
Expect New Records
A cool day is probable, and this,
many believe, means the breaking of
the records for the contest set last
year when Ralph de Palma averaged
1884 miles an hour.
Although the race did not start until
130 this afternoon. the rush to the
speedway started early this morning.
Thousands of enthusiasts came in yes
terday, but the influx was increased
many fold this morning when auto
mobiles filled with race fans streamed
into the city from every direction and
thousands of others came by steam
and electric lines.
