DERBY FAvOKITE-
POLITICIANS AT TRACK

fastest auto drivers are ready for the
start in the western automobile clas-
sic, the second annual Chicago Derby.
The distance is 300 miles and the
prizes amount to $4,000 cash. 1t was

one but himself as the winner.
Its my race" he said. "Those fel-
lows cant beat me. They'll have 10
smash world records to do it, and |
expect to smash a few myself"
Ralph de Palma, who probably has
more bad luck than any auto driver
in the game, will drive Mercede,.
De Palma has missed winning several
big races short distances from the
finish because of car trouble.
""Nothing like that this time" he
said. I'm taking no chances"
Other entrants are Barney Oldfield

PROSPECTORS FROM
MANY STATES
HUNTING TUNGSTEN

That tungsten hunting fever is still
raging in the San Juan district and
hundreds of miners and prospectors
are waiting for the snow to go out Of
the deep guiches of the mountains SO
that they may search for the precious
ore, was the statement made yester-
day by Ben G. Olson, machine oper-
tor of the Smuggler Union mine near
Telluride, who is visiting his brother,
A. Olsen of Pueblo.
Mr.. Olsen was employed for sew
eral years at the steel works, but
left to take up mining and is living
now in the midst of excitement never
equaled since the gold fever many
years ago, he says.
prospcctors have focked into the
Telluride district from Montant, Utah,
Idaho, Nevada and many other states
of the west and all are waiting for
spring to open in order that they may
go into the mountains.

they see them, but for all of that they
will be out with the rest.
There vii be plenty of work this
summer for miners in developing the
tungsten claims that have already
been located but the majority of the
miners do not care for this kind of la
Dor, but wish to locate mines foi
themselves. With such a large mum.

Mr.. Olsen declares that every min.

CHICAGO, June 10.-Ths following
is the official result of today's bal
lot:
Hughes 94912; Roosevelt lS1s;
Lodge Z; Du Pont 3; Weeks B; La
Toilette 3; absent one. Total 987.
The vote was afterward made
unanimous, every name except that
of Roosevelt being withdrawn.
Harding Immediately wired Hughes
the following congratulations:
with deliberation, enthusiasm and
under circumstances which could not
have been more complimentary, with
Il unanimity never excelled in any
past convention, you have been nom
mated by the Republicans of this ma
tion as their candidate for president. +"
The selection of Hughes followed
the reading of Roosevelt's letter in
which he suggested Senator Lodge
as compromise candidate.
The Republicans made it perfectly
apparent that they intended to run
their own convention.
The usual uproar and parade fol-
lowed the nomination.
The outcome was forecasted when
Senator Sherman withdrew at mid
night. Ohio next withdrew Burton,
which was followed by the withdrawal
by the other states of their favorito
sons.
Senator Weeks on withdrawing,
said he won no scars from an unsuc-
cessful fight.
Following the reading Of Roosevslt's
telegram endorsing Lodge, "Angls
Archie" Stevenson said it released the
Roosevelt delegates from voting for
him.
The Republicans reconvened at
11:47, at which time Senator Smoot
read the peace committees report,
following an all night session with
the Progressives in which the Repub-
ican conferees were solid for Hughes.
The report said, regarding Hughes:
His silence on recent issues is
necessary from the fact of his ju-
dicial position. His earlier speeches
and declarations, however, give
ground for the assurance that he ia
in accord with the platform adopted
by the Republican and Progressive
conventions"
Senator Smoot read ROosevslt's
message urging Lodge as q man of
the highest integrity, who has sup
ported preparedness and all progress
sive Legislation urged by the Re-
publicans. The message urged the
Republicans and Progressivss to stand
on a common ground. The mention
of the name of Senator Lodge but
but slight applause, and this WAS
only from the Massachusetts dsleSa-
ton.
Senator Lodge himself, seconded
Alexander Moors's motion to make
the nomination Of Hughes unanimous.
The Progressives nominated Roose-
veit unanimously at 1888 In face OF
the fact that he recommended Lodge
as compromise candidate. Bedlam
broke loose as Chairman Robbins
suspended the rules and made the
nomination by reclamation, and an
nounced the result, all within ons
minute.
Perkins fought for compromise to
the last.
Hiram johnson, who will probably
be the Progressive candidate for vice
president, seconded the nomination OF
Roosevelt.
