City Attorney u. Z. Harmon

= CHICAGO, June 8.-De-
spite Roosevelt's statement
offering TO come to Chicago
and address the republicans,
making another plea for har-
moDy, the radical Bull Moose
leaders announced this after
noon they were going ahead
with their plans to nominate
the colonel before the close
of tOday's session of the pro-
grcssive convention.
They believe Roosevelt will be
nominated before midnight.
The conservatives believe that
he will not.
The difference of opinion be-
tween bull moosers is back of the
fight being waged through COM
mittee sessions today and con-
tinued when the convention re-
convened at 2 p. m.

81 believe that the progressive
convention will nominate Roose-
welt by midnight and that the
nomination will be squarely up to
the republicans to take or leave,
as they see fit" said William Al
len White of Kansas today.
Gov. Johnson probably will be
vice presidential nominee.
From the other side came only
sage shaking of heads and an ex-
preston of confidence that no
precipitate action will be taken.

Their action, in its dignity,

Commissioner Drake today
hit back at the city council
and outsiders who have been
active in plans to GUST him
from the city hall.
In n signed statement, the
first issued by him since the
Impeachment plan became
public, Drake charged that
certain leagues and associa-
tons were trying to gain
control of his department. i'm
order to further their own
ends.
He accused Mayor Fawcett
of being in league with these
factions.
Late yesterday Drake visited
City Attorney Harmon and was
told the general nature of the
charges which have been filed
against him.
He included a resume of these
charges iIf~f1S statement today,
