 The Hughes antagonists have prof. tied by the fact that there is no Hughes headquarters here and no one can speak with authority ior him. To meet that condition, the Oregon delegates. the first to be instructed for Justice Hughes. today issued a call for a91 Hughes delegates to the convention to meet and form an or ganization to push their man. The men who issued the call and it was gon delegation, expect they will be joined by Senator Smoot of Utah Governor Whitman Of New York, and others who are talking for Justice Hughes.
 During today's conferences among. the Roosevelt delegates to the repub. lican convention, the possibility arose that the colonePs name would not be placed in nomination in the usual way, but that delegates for him would be content to cast their ballots in the home of arousing sentiment Those who advocated voting for the colonel without formal nomination, were said to fear that a spokesman for him might be called upon to give a pledge that his candidate would stand by the action of the convention whatever the result. The subject was gone over at a conference of Roosevelt manag- CTS today.
 Pinchot at Republican Headquarters. Clifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania, a delegate to the progressive conven- ton, spent much time among iead- CTS at republican headquarters. Mir Pinchot could see only one result in the republican convention and that was the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt. He admitted that there was a strong sentiment for Justice Hughes but said he felt that this would not grow as rapidly as the Roosevelt sentiment with the arrival of more delegates.

cALfFo oRNIA ATHLETES
 PEREoRM AT TRAvERs ISLAND.
Fred Murray Wins Two Events and
 Makes Track Record.

California athletes who have been lingering around the vicinity of New York since the intercollegiate cham pacnshdps gave an exhibition of their proWess Saturday at Travers Island peIore g crowd of 5000 persons wGlo were attracted to the 96th meet of the New York Athletic club in spite of the 1act that the heavens threatened to splu out a deluge of rain at any nin- ute. The Stamford university bows were in the limeIight all the time and they were mighty popular with the on- aeoa1efs. tIsacfically every one around the lawns was looking to see the Apollo-like captain of the western team do some supelhuman feat in the high hurdle race, and he did not disappoirt. He Tailed to touch the worlds record figures, but he did the next best thing possible by clipping fifth of a second off the best time that had ever been made on the track. Some good hur- dlers have come and gone on the Tray CTS Island cinders since the day of Copland, but no one had ever before been able to make the 120 yards over the high timbers in 15 2-5 seconds. That was what Murray did Saturday The old mark was made by Stephen B. Chase more than 20 years ago.
 One of the reasons that few hurdlers have been able to do as well at Tray CTS Island as they may on other tracks is the fact that the obstacles up there are very sturdily built, and if a man fails to clear them cleanly he either goes down or else is hindered so much that he loses a lot of time. Murray found this to be true in the Golden West special, 220 yard race over the low timbers. This was arranged as st feature among the star murders from the Pacific coast, and there was every expectation of another new record.
