Delegates from this city 20 the
country-wide congress Of Jews to be
held in Philadelphia, March s6, were
elected last night at a meeting in
Beethoven Hall, 2lo East Fifth Street.
These delegates, Of whom there are
twenty-five, showed themselves directly
opposed 10 the views Of Jacob II.
Schiff and Oscar 8 Straus. who in
newspaper interviews said they saw
no necessity for a Jewish congress in
the United States.
The fundamental idea behind the
congress is to consider how TO voice the
requests of American Jews az the con-
ference of world powers after the var
The convention in Philadelphia prob
ably will be the most important and
interesting assembly Of the race held
in any country since the days Of an
cient Jerusalem.
Ex-Judge Leon Sanders presided at
the meeting last night. Nearly every
shade OF Judaism was represented, the
orthodox predominsting. Nominations
at first were made along political lines,
but Mr.. Sanders pointed out that cliques
and party delegations would harm the
movement far more than benefit 70.

race who are representative Of all the
Jews in this country" said Mr.. Sanders.

shouting, gesticulating crowd 10 stop.
"The congress in Philadelphia will be

THE BIG CONVENTIONS OPENED

Today the republican and progressive conventions
Opened in Chicago For week the clans have been
gathering and for half that long the wires have been kept
warm with all kinds of guesses and predictions as to
candidates and programs. FavOe sons have been rot-
ted out and put through their paces taking up as much
space in the public view they could and trying to take
more
The guesses have been perhaps one as good as an
other and the predictions numerous and as strong as
the hopes of the asprants and their hackers All kinds
of combinations have been suggested and each factor OF
the big gathering has figured out or had 1t Inquired out
for him just how the votes to flock to him when the
time for fOcking gets ripe.
Over and above all however has been the Hughes
movement strong persistent and growing and the Roose
vet struggle against big odds and several distinct ana
large sized handcaps.
The standpat element controls the steam roller, but
the rolling is not good 1t nominate Its choice despite
the progresSves but it does not want to nominate unless
it can also elect and that is where the party up against
a whole lot of trouble.
Yesterday one wing of the progressives, for it has
deveoped two gave an umatum to the old party to the
effect that it is Roosevelt or nothing" How much OF
this is meant and how much is bluff guess as well
as another It may be all or it may be all the other
though it is probably "hfty fifty mixture.
This has all been unofficial and did not count. Now 1t
is different for it is cold business and words mean some
thing 1t is not to be expected that much will be done to-
day or for that matter tomorrow for at present ar
ranged the names of candidates will not be presented be-
fore Friday and possibly not before Saturday
The platform is to be made and acted upon, and the
olive branch is to be kept working double shifts What
action taken if any before Friday, will depend on the
progressives. If they name Roosevelt as they have
threatened to do tomorrow, it will force the issue and
place the responsibility of another widening of the breach
upon the republicans The radical branch of the pro-
gressves is liable to do this and this may cause split
among the spitters From present indications however
it is not probable the nomination will be made before late
Friday and probably not before Saturday In the mean
while the Capital Journal will give full report of the
dongs of all the conventions and its readers can keep IN
close touch with the proceedings and do their own gur-
ing on possible results.

stock Market Weakened
by Election Possibilities

New York, June THE New York
Evening SUMS financial review today
says;
With the eonvening Of the republican
national convention at Chicago today,
the stock market passed even more com.
pletely under the Influence Of domestic
issues than before. The trading, which
was almost entirely professional,
showed q further contraction. The pos.
ability Of the third ticket, headed by
Colonel Roosevelt IN the event Of the
nomination Of supreme Court Justice
Hughes was uppermost of all financial
and political discussion and served as
the chief restraining influence.
The trading element argued that
such development would again split
the republican party and assure the re-
election Of President Wilson and con,

regarding foreign affairs and national
