But Massachusetts Delegates
Declare They Will Stay with
Him to the Last.

CHICAGO. June IO-senator
Weeks. OF Massachusetts. released
his delegates. In the ballotinE yes
terday Weeks had lO5 votes.
The announcement OF Senator
Weeks's withdrawal followed closely
on the news that sherman had re-
leased his delegates. The decision
OF the Weeks and Sherman leaders to
abandon their candidates. and In the
case OF Illinois to support Justice
Hughes, became known early and
had a potential influence in deciding
the course OF followers OF other IA
yorite son candidates.
Senator Weeks announced that he
no longer continued the fight and
when pressed for a statement said
simply he had informed his support
ers that while he greatly appreciated
their loyalty he desired now that they
cast their vote for some other can
didate. A large part Of the Massa-
chusetts delegates indicated they
would stay with Weeks until the end,
but It is understood his supporters
from other states generally will be
for Justice Hughes.
No one would undertake to speak
specifically for FaIrbanks's follow
ers bnt 1t Is quite well understood
that they would not longer press his
candidacy.
Involved in this case Is the uues-
ton Of the vice presidency and even
the senatorial race in Indiana. Two
senators are to be elected in that
state this year and in whatever the
Indiana delegation does Il will have
regard to this fact. The leaders
therefore. are anxious that the for
Ener vice president should be again
