In New York and Will
Rush Their Work.
WILL VISIT OYSTER BAY
Colonel Will Be interviewed
Former Secretary of Navy at
Head of Group-Plan to
Stampede Convention.

New York. May 23.--A movement
that has the earmarks Of an effort to
stampede the republican national con-
vention for Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
is under way.
A group of republicans. largely Taft
men in 1912, representing 30 states,
have organized a Roosevelt republi-
can committee" with headquarters for
the present at the Biltmore hotel, and
with George Won J.. Meyer, secretary
of the navy under presidents Taft and
Roosevelt at the head.
The committee made known its ex-
istence yesterday. Today a dozen or
more of it's members will call upon the
colonel at Oyster Bay to ask him what
he has to say. .....
The committee has gathered together
with lightning like rapidity in the last
four days. The republicans who form
its membership realize that they are
Just a trifle late in getting started, but
so encouraged are they by sheaves Of
kilograms that have poured into the
committees suite that they expect to
have enough delegates rounded up for
his way.
A Republican Move.
Robert G. Morris, vice president Of
the Union League club and former re-
publican county chairman, who spoke
for the committee yesterday in the
temporary absence of Mr.. Meyer, en-
phasized the fact that the movement is
strictly one within the republican
party.
A nation wide woman suffrage
movement for the nomination and cleo
ton of Theodore Roosevelt for presi-
dent, win be started at the Hotel Man
hatten by a meeting Of the Roosevelt
women Tuesday at IL o'clock.
Miss Harriet Vittum, Of Chicago, Of
the Northwestern university settle
ment will submit a plan Of organiza-
ton and will outline a project for a
national women's progressive league.

He Has Stated That He Saw

week Of the trial of Will H. O"pet. uni
versity Of Wisconsin student, who is
charged with the murder of his former
sweetheart, Marian Lambert, opened
today with the resumption of examina-
tions Of prospective jurors. After q
weeks work, during which time about
400 veniremen were questioned, four
Jurors have been sworn for service in
the case. It is expected that the jury
will be completed before the end OF the
week.
1t became known today that David
James, the deaf mute, who declared
at the coroner's inquest that he saw
two persons kiss while standing in the
woods at dawn Of the day which was
Marian Lam5ert's last, will be called
by the state to take the stand against
Orpet. It had been believed the state
attached little value to the testimony.
James testified he did not see the
young people clearly, but said the man
left the spot alone. He was unable to
identify Orpet as this man.

YANKEE TROOPS
BACK FROM HUNT;
NO YAQU| TROUBLE
Colonel Sibley and Major Lang
horne Are on the American
Side After Seeking
Bandits.
DENY INDIAN REPORTS
Late Arrivals at Boquillas Say
Troops Were Not Bothered
Reinforce Patrol Of
Border.

Marathon, Tex, May 22.-Both Colo
mel Sibley and Major Langhorne are
now on the American side Of the line
after their hunt for the Glenn Springs
bandits. According to arrivals in Boz
quillas today, there is no truth in the
report that the expedition had been
menaced by Yaqui Indians.
The report emanated from O mes
sage sent by the war department to
Colonel Sibley several days ago, adj
vising him that land Of Yaqui In
dams had left Cuatro Cienegas for
Boquillas, on the Mexican side.
Colonel Sibley brought with him to
this side four Mexican prisoners who
were captured by Lieutenant Cramer
in a running fight near Santa Anita,
Coahuila, 10 days ago. There were two
other prisoners captured at the time,
but these had been so badly wounded
in the fight that they were left at FL
Pine.
San Antonio Tex. May 23.-Moving
northward to join Colonel Sibley, IL IL
develops that the little punitive column
is in danger, it is probable a force or
the Sixth cavalry which has just ar
ried in the Big Bend district, will be
used as reinforcement.
Officers at department headquarters
were inclined to regard the sniping, TO
which the rear guard OF General Per-
shing's troops had been subjected, as
the action Of a reduced force of Willis
tas, and relatively unimportant.
Marathon. Tex, May 23.-Two troops
Of the Sixth cavalry, withdrawn last
week from General Pershings forces,
detrained here early today preparatory
to marching to Boquillas, where they
will be in a position to patrol the bor-
der and reinforce Colonel Sibley and
Major Langhorne II necessary.
A report reached here today that
Mexican snipers fired on two Ameri-
can soldiers, bathing in the Rio Grande
near Deemer's ford Friday but failed to
hit them.
Yaqui Indians Threaten.
Army officers are investigating a re-
port brought from Boquillas by q
truck driver to the effect that Yaqui
Indians were in the rear OF Maj. George
T. Langhorne's artillery detachment
and in a position to threaten 1t.
According to the truck driver, who
said he got his information from cour-
iers sent to the border by the expedt-
tionary forces, Colonel Sibley, who was
leading the advance out of Mexico. has
retraced his steps in order to reinforce
Langhorne.
