SAY WEEKS DELEGATES
WILL TURN TO COLONEL
Massachusetts, Senator's Friends
Assert He Can Deliver His
Strength to Any One
He Favors
ADMIT GAINS BY HUGHES

CHICAGO. June 2.--while speculation az
to the probable action of the uninstructed
delegates is necessarily limited by the fact
that none Of the big State delegations yet
are on the ground and their national COM
mitteemen are not willing to speak for
them, 1t is admitted even in the Roosevelt
camp that Justice Hughes constantly is
growing stronger.
Claims made on behalf OF the Colonel that
he will have the Weeks delegates after
the first ballot were sharply contested by
the Hughes men today: and their claims
were backed UP by the men who are
closest to Senator Weeks. who very frankly
explained that the Senator could not de.
liver his strength to any one IL he so
desired. The Hughes men say they will
have the Weeks delegates after the first
vote and probably before. Senator Weeks
has assured personal friends that il is
his intention II he sees that he cannot
win personally to release all of his dele
gates and suggest that they vote for who
ever they believe can be nominated And
1t s said here that Senator Lodge has
expressed the belief that the candidate who
would stand the best chances of success
at the polls Is Justice Hughes.
just WneTe the unlnStruCteu ueleBdles are
expected to stand was made clear today
by Samuel Perkins, National Committee
man of Washington state. He is brother
of George w. Perkins, the Progressive
leader and will prove a real factor in the
convention. as the Northwest States expect
to act together
I'VE are for the man who can win In
November" explained Mr.. Perkins. The
Republicans in my section of the country
believe that the time has come when the
party must get together We are willing
to support any gDod man who will be able
to make the right kind of a campa ign.
What we want is that when the convention
adjourns there will be less soreness than
at any time in the recent history of the
party Oregon is instructed for Hughes,
hut I know that the delegates would regard
their instructions as provisional If it should
become evident that some other good Re-
publican was going to win. And that is
the position of all the instructed delega-
tions 1t is a good sign"
Perkins declined to make any statement
as to who he believed would carry off the
prize. although II is known that privately
he has expressed the belief that Hughes
has developed the most strength. He and
Senator Reed Smoot, of Utah, who Is the
leading figure in the National Committee,
are known to believe that the real fight will
be between the Justice and Colonel Roose-

TRY TO CURB HUGHES.
The real effort to curb the constantly
growing Hughes strength began today.
Managers of the campaigns of "favorite
sons" conferred In an effort to count noses
and decide whether they would be able to
head OF the nomination of the Justice with
out at the same time starting n Roosevelt
movement that might get beyond control
Upon these conferences depends the en-
ire program of the so-called "Od Guard ="
They recognize that the situation is very
delicate. If Hughes is eliminated most of
his strength will go into the Roosevelt
camp. And this Is the one thing that the
majority of the old-time leaders. includ-
ing the men who four years ago made the
nomination of Taft possible, fear most.
The throwing out of Hughes delegates
from Georgia made no impression on the
Hughes leaders. They had expected that
action. as IL has been considered certain
from the start that the National Commit
tee although anxious to he conciliatory. in
tended to support all delegates who had
the backing of their local machine. The
Georgia delegates who were seated had
the backing of Henry S. Jackson. the Ma
tional Committeeman from that State. It
was pointed out that. although the seat
ing of the jackson representatives was
loss on paper to Justice Hughes II was
by no means gain for Roosevelt, mas
much as Jackson and his followers are un-
compromislngly ti-Roosevelt. They will
vote for Root on the initial ballot. but will
go to the candidate that seems most likely
to win when the real test comes.

welt forces were not making claims.
The Cummins boosters issued formal
claim of l21 delegates.
+ The. Hughes camp simply stood pat on
previous declarations that the Justice would
be nominated.
The Brumbaugh boom formally blossomed
out in the convention air from headquarters
established in the Auditorium. This is the
last of the headquarters of favorlte sons
to be opened here.
