'STALWARTS' PLAN
CONVENTION FLEA
Appeal to Credentials Committee,
Then a Minority Report, Is
the Program.
Jfeom Staff Correspondent.
Chicago, June 20.It is the inten
tion of the La Follette people to make
an appeal to the committee on cre
dentials. If the appeal does not bear
fruit, then it is their intention to work
lor a minority report from the com
mittee, and thus try to have the con
vention itself pass on their case. There
was a vigorous rumor yesterday that
the La Follette men had asked the
president to say on which ticket he
preferred to have the Wisconsin can
didates for electors, DUt the rumor
cannot be verified. Such a request
could only have one result, and that
to embarrass the president, whom the
two factions in Wisconsin say they aie
anxious to protect.
Eleven of the thirteen candidates
for electors named at the two state
conventions have signified a desire to
be placed on the La Follette ticket If
this is done the "stalwarts" will not
win a big victory, even it they should
capture the party name and designa
tion. With the candidates for electors
on the "halfbreed" ticket, that faction,
in the event of victory, would claim
to have saved the state for Roosevelt,
i Colonel Herron, private secretary to
'Governor La Follette, told The
'Journal man today that the La
I Follette ticket would sweep the state
by from 50,000 to 75,000, no matter
whether it was known as the republi
can ticket or not. Two years ago, Mr.
jHerron says, La Follette was cut by
'30,000 republicans in Wisconsin, and
yet he was re-elected by about 50,000
majority.
The very practical question of who
Is to distribute the national campaign
fund in Wisconsin is at stake in the
"stalwart" and "halfbreed" contest.
|With Henry C. Payne, vice chairman
of the republican congressional com
mittee, on the "stalwart" side of the
(Case, that case has decidedly the bet
ter of the financial argument.
Money will probably be poured into
the state pretty freely, assuming that
'Senator Aldrich and Mr. Bliss are suc
cessful in holding up big moneyed in
terests, but it will be expended almost
[exclusively for the electoral and con
gressional tickets. La Follette has said
he could take care of himself, and he

STRICKEN CHURCH
MOURNS ITS DEAD
New York Congregation, Torn by
Fire Horror, Holds Its
Memorial.
New York Son Special Service.
New York, June 20.Sad and im
pressive were the memorial services
in St. Mark's church yesterday. Out
side the funeral trains rumbled and
the curious crowds passed and re
passed with pitiful glances at the
fluttering emblems of death.
Here and there among the crowds
men passed bearing flowers for the
dead.
Two or three hearses stood in front
of the old church and thru the closed
shutters above came the sound of
wailing voices and of prayers for the
dead.
The church itself was almost devoid
of mourning emblems within. The
pews were gaunt and crypt-like in
their empty desolation, the walls were
undraped and the altar was naked and
bare.
The grief that has fallen upon the
church is too deep for ostentation. On
the stone steps of the narrow araway
outside, wretched figures sat weeping,
while about them stood crowds of
wondering children with bands of
crepe around their arms.
One by one the mourners entered
the darkened pews and bent forward
on the railings in deep, silent prayer.
Everywhere was the solemnity of a
voiceless grief.
Then came a German laboring man
thru the doors. He was in his work
ing clothes, soiled and shabby, ragged
and awryjust as he had worn them
night and day since the burning of the
Slocum. But the digrwty of a great
sorrow e/inobled him. The well
dressed made way for him, and he
sank into a pew, buried his face in an
old red bandanna and bent forward in
prayer. Seldom during the services
did he open his eyes. Those who
were nearby would have thought him
asleep had they not noted the con
vulsive heaving of his breast and his
tensely clenched hands.
"He lost his entire familyhis wife
and four little ones," said somebody
who knew him.
A group of little girls dressed in
white with bands of mourning on their
sleeves entered a pew and knelt in
supplication, which ended in an out
burst of weeping. They were sur
vivors of the disaster.
General dread caused by the dis
aster has greatly thinned the crowds
which usually fill to the limit the ex
cursion steamers plying to nearby re
sorts. Many steamers with a capacity
of 1,500 to 2,000 left their docks car
rying less than half that number. Em
ployes of the dock department sta
tioned along the wharves for many
years declare they never before had
seen such a sudden falling off in the
crowds of pleasure seekers.

HAS TRIED BOTH
Travel for Health vs. Dieting.
A man who was sent to Europe for
his health and finally found cure in a
little change in his diet, says.
"I was troubled with dyspepsia for
five years and two doctors here in
Kenosha that treated me for over a
year both told me there was no help
for me. Then I had an expert from
Chicago, but still received no relief,
then followed another expert from
Chicago who came to our house two
times a month for four months. He
gave me up like all the others and told
me to take a trip across the ocean,
which I did in the year 1899 and came
home about as bad as when I started.
The doctor told me my stomach lining
was full of sores. Then I began to
study my own case and learned of the
diet recommended by the Postum
Cereal Co., so I gave up coffee, pork
and all greasy foods and began using
Postum Food Coffee. Gradually I got
better and better until I am well now
as I ever was in my younger days,
have no trouble and eat anything fit to
eat.
"Sometimes away from home I am
persuaded to drink coffee, but I only
take a sip of it, for it tastes bitter and
disagreeable to me, but the longer I
use Postum the better I like it and the
better I feel. I could say a great
deal more of my experience with Pos
tum, but think this will give every one
a good idea, of what leaving off coffee
and using Postum can do." Na me

ANTI-CORTELYOU
MEN CAN'T WIN
They Hold Conference but With
out ResultsPresident's
Campaign Ideas.
From a Staff Correspondent.
Chicago, June 20.Anti-Cortelyou
members of the republican national
committee, in session in Senator Pen
rose's rooms at the Auditorium An
nex yesterday, suggested that Cor
nelius N. Bliss of New York ask the
president to withdraw his suggestion
of Secretary Cortelyou for chairman
of the national committee. Bliss em
phatically declined the mission. A
larger and later conference bore no
fruit, and the anti-Cortelyou brigade
was compelled to admit defeat.
At the head of this brigade are
Senator Penrose, who wanted to be
chairman of the national committee,
Senator Scott, after the same job,
and Governor Murphy of New Jersey,
also a Barkis. It has been simply a
case of a bunch of disappointed ones
making common cause against a suc
cessful opponent. The determination
of Bliss to have nothing to say to the
president in the way of recommend
ing somebody else in the place of
Cortelyou, has probably settled the
question of national chairman defi
nitely.
One of the anti-Cortelyou members
of the national committee informed
me that their case was lost. He looked,
however, for concessions. He thought
one of the anti-Cortelyou committee
men would be made second vice pres
ident of the national committee (Har
rx New of Indianapolis will be the
firstf vice chairman^TjBuccefeding Post
master General Payne) and for oth
ers of the insurgents to be put on
the executive* committee.
Why Cortelyou Is Chosen.
..The president wants Secretary Cor
telyou for chairman 5
Some Are Anxious.
Aside from these "practical" mem
bers of the party who object to Cortel
you, there are a good many men who
118 have the
welfarsomewhatparty
in
because the cam
paign Will center In New York and
the states near it, and Cortelyou un
derstands New York conditions. At
first the president thought th at he
had a solution in Cornelius N. Bliss,
who has been treasurer of the repub
lican national committee for years,
and is not actively identified with
either the Odell or the Piatt factions
in New York. The position was of
fered Bliss, but he declined on ac
count of his age and bodily infirmities.
Bliss himself suggested Cortelyou to
the president. The suggestion was
approved and Cortelyou was asked to
serve.
The general publio should not get
the impression that because there is
oposition to Secretary Cortelyou for
the chairmanship, some other man
may be named for that position. The
opposition remains, but Mr. Cortelyou
will be named and the committee will
accept him, albeit it may be under
protest. His selection will send a
good many republicans to their home
states with "cold feet," and may af
fect their ardor during the campaign,
but the thing may be set down as
true, the campaign will not be won
or lost on the selection of a national
chairman, no matter what certain
prominent republicans may say in
Chicago, nor how "cold" their "feet"
when they return home.

tional campaign properlymoney to
pay printing, for railroad fare and
hotel bills, to hire carriages on elec
tion day, to make several polls of the
pivotal and uncertain states, and to
defray all the other necessary and
legitimate campaign expenses. In
1900 I am reliably informed it took
$6,000,000. It is understood that the
president is depending on Senator Al
drich and Cornelius Bliss to raise the
funds this year.
The president at no time has been
sympathy with the methods intro
duced into American ipolitlcs by Sen
ator Han na and the men who were
associated with him four and eight
years ago. He made up his mind long
ago, that if nominated for the presi
dency this year he would undertake
to bring about a changed condition.
This means of course, that the mem
bers of the national committee Who
were close to Hanna and in full sym
pathy with his methodsand many
of them will be on the committee for
another foup yearswill not be close
to Roosevelt, or in his confidence. A
new set of advisers of the inner cir
cle will be chosen. The friends of
Hanna have protested quite vehe
mently, but inevitably have had to
yield.
Expenditures to Be Directed.
This does not mean that the presi
dent undervalues the use of money in
a great national campaign for legiti
mate campaign purposes, and for
these purposes it will be poured out
as liberally as of old but Into certain
channels it will not be directed, and
Cortelyou's selection for the chair
manship emphasizes that statement.
The experiment Js attended with
some risk, and ifl -i Roosevelt were
weaker with the common people than
he Is, it might prove, fatal to republi
can success. Meanwhile, It should be
borne in mind that it is worth, while
v^^v""r
for the country to have as one of Its
candidates for the presidency a man
of these high ideals, who is not a wor
shiper of the money god, and who
stands against any further corruption
of the great body of the electorate.
The new national committee will
meet immediately following the ad
