That the suppression Of un-American

- Il do not say that every man who
reads the Hearst papers is pro-Ger-

Chairman Henderson's denunciation
OF Hearst publications was loudly ap-
plauded. Many Of those present who

Roosevelt Answer
Expected Next Week

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, July
2o.-Although most of the delegates to
the Republican state convention had
returned to their homes to-day, few
remained to rest over the week end.
From them was learned for the first
time the history of the Roosevelt for
Governor movement which resulted,
during the convention, in the crcula-
ton of the round robin requesting
the Colonel to enter the primaries and
in the telegram of Attorney General
Merton E. Lewis to Mr. Roosevelt that
he would withdraw from the contest
if the Colonel would consent to the
circulation of his nomination petitions
The movement began to take shape
several months ago, when former Sena-
tor Edgar 7. Bracket, one OF its
origlnators, who had not been on politi-
cally friendly terms with Mr. Roose-
yelt for years, made his peace with the
Colonel 1t did not assume definite
proportions until about two weeks ago.
At that time several Republican lead
ers, including Henry w. Taft. Nicholas
Murray Butler. J. R. Sheffield and
Harvey D. Hinman, met at the Uni
versity Club in New York. They de-
cided that the state political situation
needed some radical treatment in order
to prevent split in the party They
neld several conferences, the net re-
suit of which was the conclusion that
a determined attempt be made to have
Colonel Roosevelt enter the primaries.
The movement was spread quietly
throughout the state until it centred
at secret conference last Wednesday
night in Saratoga. At this we're Will
lam Barnes. United States Senators
Wadsworth and Calder. William L.
Ward, State Senator Theodore Douglas
Robinson, nephew of the Colonel
and manager of the Lewis campaign;
Mr.. Bracket, Henry W. Taft, DR.. But
Ter, Mr.. Human. Horace wilkinson,
former Governor Horace White, Mr..
Sheffield and Phillip Elting. The
round-robin idea and its development
during the convention was the out
growth Of that gathering.
Mr.. Sheffield probably will present
the petition to Colonel Roosevelt next
week. An authoritative statement Of
the Roosevelt position is not expected
before he receives it. In the meantime
it will continue in circulation.
In the post-eonvention gossip it was
stated that Johns. King, national com
mitteeman from Connecticut, who is
one of the Colonel's >confidants. was
likely to be influential in the ultimate
decision.

Human Comes Out
For Bench, Indicating
Roosevelt Will Rur,

ALBANY, July 2o.-Harold j. Hin
man, first deputy attorney general, and
until the Republican convention at
Saratoga an aspirant for the party's
nomination for Attorney General. an
nounced to-day that he would seek the
nomination for Supreme Court Justice.
His, decision caused local political
leaders to profess their belief that
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt would en-
ter the primary contest against Gov
ernor Whitman.
"A new situation" Mr.. Human said,
"has arisen out Of the convention at
Saratoga. l understand that in such
new situation Attorney General Lewis
is likely to be a candidate for re-
nomination for his present Office. and
Of course would not be a candidate
against him."
Attorney General Lewis. who was
the chief rival of Governor Whitman
for the nomination for Governor, an
nounced at Saratoga that he would
withdraw from the contest if Colonel
Roosevelt would be candidate.

Alien Denied Divorce

ANNAPOLIS, Md, July 2o.--Judge
Robert Moss directed to-day that the
divorce proceedings brought by Mrs.
William NJ Zollner against her hus-
band. who is an officer in the German
army, be abated until the declaration
of peace. Judge Moss ruled, despite
tho insstence of Mrs. Zollner to the
contrary, that both parties to the suit
were aliens.
Mrs. Zollner, in her complaint, al
legged her husband had treated her cru
ely, and claimed that he had violated
his parole in order to leave England at
the beginning of the war. A SON, who
was q midshipman, was asked some
time ago to resign from the Naval
Academy

Bristol Type Plane
Abandoned by u. S.

BUFFALO, July 2o.--orders were
issued to-day by Archer A. Landon,
chief of the production board Of the
United States Aircraft Board, to the
officials of the Curtiss Airplane and
Motor Corporation, to discontinue the
manufacture of nirplnnes of the Bristol
type equipped with Liberty motor.
Recent flying tests, Mr.. Landon said,
have demonstrated that the machine is
overpowered and not of military value,
lacking maneuvring ability and not
having sufficient speed for war pur-
poses.
The Curtiss company is building five
types of airplanes, in addition to the
Bristol. They include two kinds Of
flying boats, mail service plane and
two training types. To these will be
added in the near future a single seat
ed fighting machine of tried type and
another modelled after the Caproni, an
Italian three-motor bombing plane.
