Chcago's streets for home while the

The only protest Of the day came a
few minutes before the leaders read
the announcement from Colonel
Roosevelt when William Finn Of
Pittsburgh proposed the adoption Of a
rule which permits the national COM

WASHINGTON WORRIED
OVER MEXICAN TROUBLE

Washington, June 10.--Administra-
ton officials have been unable as
yet 10 determine the extent of the
anti-American agitation in northern
Mexico. but they are making no ef-
fort TO conceal their uneasiness The
demonstrations against retention Of
American troops in Mexico have been
widely separated geographically. but
have occurred, some officials think,
with significantly close relations to
each other In time. They believe it
possible a definite campaign has been
inaugurated by some agency TO pro-
woke an armed clash between Ameri-
can and Mexican forces. IL is not
known. however that any definite
indication Of such an organized move

The state department had no con-

With the end of the ballotiug for
the presidential nomination and the
official announcement by Chairman
Harding, the balloting for vice pFesi-
dent began. In view OF Mr.. Hitch
cocks expressed preference for for
mer Senator Burton there was some
surprise when Governor Willis, of
Ohio. withdrew Burton's name and cast
the whole block Of Ohio votes for
Fairbanks. That left Burkett as the
only candidate with any pledged
strength and he was urged upon the
convention as meeting the call of the
west for representation on the ticket.
As the roll call proceeded, whole
blocks of votes piled in for Fairbanks
and his nomination was such a fore
gone conclusion among the delegates
themselves that they began leaving
the hall and causing such confusion
that the balloting was heard with diff
ficulty.
After Chairman Harding had offici-
ally announced the nomination OF Mr..
Fairbanks, resolutions were passed

Charles Evans Hughes of New York
