RebubHcan Leaders at Seq
 Or Nominati0n 0f Candidate
Numerous Conferences Held Last Night Failed to Bring About Agreement Any One Man-"Favor-
 ite Son" Managers Active.

Roosevelt, he would support either of them Such a situation,'' he replied, would have great weight with me-
 Then you would support Roose- welt if you found him the stronger?'
 Penrose Has Open Mind.
 "All I can say is that I came here neither for nor against any candi- date. In Pennsylvania we fought out a straight, open fight and the people there decided to send a large uninstructed delegatiOn.'
 The Pennsylvania delegation of 76 will be split among at least four can didates, the senator said, Philander C. Knox, he added, would receive the votes of the greater number of dele gates in that state Governor Brum- Eaug, he said, would get about 25 votes, about five delegates would vote for Roosevelt and some for Hughes. As for himself, he said, he did not know whom he would vote for on the first ballot but he thought it prob ably would be Knox. Knox, however, the Pennsylvanian further said, is not a candidate for the presidential nomi- nation
 An informal poll of a number of the states which have candidates in d;cates that after the first few bal lots have been taken and the favor ite sons" begin to drop out of the contest that many of the instructed delegates will go to Roosevelt or Hughes as their second choice. Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, who arrived yesterday, said:
 'Three-quarters of the 76 dele gates from Pennsylvania are unin- structed. We are going to do what in our judgment is best for the inter- est of the republican party at this time. We have no prefernce at this stage of the proceedings. The claim made by friends of Governor Brum- baugh that they will have half of the Pennsylvania delegation is untrue.' Henry G. Wasson, national commit teeman from. Pennsylvania and one Of the leaders of the Brumbaugh faction, yesterday expressed the opinion that Roosevelt is the second choice of about 60 or the 76 delegates from this state. He claims Al votes for Brumbaugh on the first ballot.
 No Effort to Force Roosevelt. John W. McGrath, private secre- tary for Colonel Roosevelt issued this statement: "So far as I know no effort will be made by ROosevelt's s friends to force him upon the repub- lican cOnVention.'
 While there will be no formal or ganization to work in his behalf for the republican presidential nomina- ton, it is said the active direction of the campaign will be undertaken by Governor Whitman of New York Senator Shoot of Utah, Frank H Hitchcock of New York and Senator EOrah of Idaho.
 Otto Stifel, a delegate t-large and chairman of the Missouri delegation , who arrived yesterday, said that Missouri would present the name ot , Charles Nagel to the convention as Q candidate for vice. president.

New Britain herald., 1916-06-03

Chicago, June 3.-The problem as to which candidate is likely to be nominated for president by the re- publican national convention seemed as far as ever from solution last night. Numerous conferences failed to re- suit in any agreement on candidates, so far as could be learned.
 While on the surface the fight ap- peared to be between Roosevelt and Hughes against the field, there was marked increase in activity at the headquarters of the various 'favorite son" candidates. Managers of the Root Weeks, Burton, Fairbanks and Sherman booms insisted that their candidates would remain in the fight until the end. They declared, after tabulating the vote claimed for Roose- welt, that the successful candidate would either be one of the "favorite sons' or a dark horse.
 The plan of the old organization leaders is said to be to try and win first with Root, and, if they fail in this effort, to give Burton, Weeks, Fair banks and Sherman try-out in the convention in the order named. In the event of failing to put over any of these the plan is to try to win with a dark horse, according to reports in circulation. Senator Warren H. Hard ing of Ohio and Gov. Mccall of Mas sachusetts were mentioned as dark horse possibilities.
 Hughes and Roosevelt Claims.
 Friends of Roosevelt claim he will win after the formalities of giving the favorite son candidates a, com- plimentary vote has been disposed of while Hughes supporters declared their candidate would be nominated early in the proceedings.
 Perkins, Statement.
 A suggestion was made yesterday that committees be appointed by the republicans and progressives to confer in an effort to decide a candidate who would be acceptable to both sides, but George w. Perkins, chairman of the executive committee of the pro- gressive party, said he had not heard of the plan. "In our statement issued in January we made the first advance in the interest of harmony and we think it is up to the republicans to make the next move" MT. Perkins said. "Of course we are for ROOSe- welt, and we think we have unanswer- able arguments why he should be named by the republicans. We are willing to confer with the republicans on the question, and if they will not accept him and suggest another man we are willing to talk about it. We do not know what the republicans will do at their convention, but we do know that the people want to vote for Roosevelt for president next November"
 MT. Perkins denied that he or the progressive party's executive com mittee are paying the expenses of the delegates to the progressive national convention. Every delegate to our convention is paying his own ex- penses," he said. 1T want to make that clear. When I was here last winter I resreved a lot of rooms in Chicago hotels for the use of our delegates, but these options have since been turned over to the indi- vidual delegates, who are paying all their own railroad fares, hotel charges and other expenses Four years ago our national convention paid for it. self, and we expect to do the same this year. We have already sold | enough boxes to pay the rent of the hau.'

Fairbanks Man Calls on Perkins.

Joseph B. Healing, one of Fair banks managers, called on MT. Per- kins during the day, but both denied that they talked politics.
 Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio, temporary chairman of the republi- can convention, may be the permanent
 chairman of the gathering, according
 to a plan discussed by party leaders
 yesterday. Senator Sutherland of
 Utah is the only other name men
 toned for the place thus far Senator
 Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts
 is said to be slated for chairman of
 the committee on resolutions, which
 will draft the party platform.
 Roosevelt and Preparedness Parade. George Won L. Meyer, in charge of the Roosevelt republican headquar- ters, issued a statement denying that , any attempt will be made to use the Chicago preparedness parade today ir the interest of Roosevelt The statement reads in part:
 'The electric flash signs which the l committee has been using will dis | play on Saturday evening, only l slogans urging preparedness and will l contain no mention of Colonel Roose- velt's name. In carrying out this order Chairman Meyer is following | instructions from Colonel Roosevelt" Penrose Talks With Crane | United States Senator Penrose of 1 Pennsylvania was among the promi- | rent arrivals of the day, and his 1 quarters were soon the meeting place l of prominent republicans from diff 1 ferent parts of the country, Among
