Resistance Is stiffening.
The Germans are stifrening their re-

Aisne rivers, and are bringing up guns.
Advances in local operations were
scored by the British last night. to-

Republican leaders claim to be be-

safe men to be behind the President,
because they have knives up their
sleeves, ready to plunge them In the
Presidents party and to occupy his

to be removed to safe distance.

opening session today Of the state
convention of the party. hoped-but
their hopes were tInged with grave
doubts-that sentiment would crystal
lize during the day on some man upon
whom the leaders could unite as a
gubernatorial candidate this fall. The
already complicated situation became
further involved, due to overnight de-
velopments.
These included the announcement of
a representative OF William Randolph
Hearst that he would be q candidate
in tie primary campaign, no matter
who the choice Of the convention
might be. but would abide by the ul-
innate decision Of the primaries. This
served to redoubIe the efforts Of the
upstate leaders. who have been
working hard for weeks to head on
the Hearst movement.

The announcement of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt that in no circumstances
would he become candidate on the

felt today that their chances to win
next fall have been increased by the
Roosevelt determination.
The committee of fifteen at this
forenoon's meeting voted to report to
the convention the vote on candidates
taken at the last Syracuse confer
ence.
William Church Osborn, who polled
the highest vote that occasion, was
eliminated upon receipt OF letter
from him requesting such action. and
notifying them that he intended to
enter the primaries regardless Of the

was no discussion Of the Hearst can-
didacy.
