REHEARING CONTESTS
Credentials Committee in All Night
Grind.
(Ft Telermph *" The Tribune. 1
Chicago. June lfi.-The credentials commit
tee, on whose decisions rests the fata of contests
in 110 dis'-riets. began an all-night session at
« o'clock, .and the disposition of the Alabama
contests made it clear that the «Taft men will
have everything their own way.
By a vote of .18 to 7 the committee, after fr. c
discussion by counsel for both aides, ratified the
decision of the national committee, which had
tentatively seated the Taft delegates. The dis
position of the contests up to midnight indicate
that the decisions of the national committee in
favor of the Taft delegates will be sustained in
nearly every instance.
Tn a test vote in the afternoon the sub-com
mittee of the credentials committee led the

"allies" to believe that the anti-Taft men would
seat many of their contestants. This victory
was more apparent than real, Involving, as :t
did. only the question of giving the contestants
another day in court without substantial re
sults. It as a case of the "allies" losing on
appeal. -^
REHEARING DECIDED ON.
The credentials committee met Immediately
after the adjournment of the Republican Na
tional Convention, and after electing Senator
Fulton chairman and A. R. Smith secretary
chose the following sub-committee on rules and
procedure :
J. Bloat Fassett, of New York, chairman;
Hurry A. DSJUgherty, of Ohio; Samuel Riniker,
of Nebraska: Samuel J. Elder, of Massachusetts,
and W. S. Fitzpatrick. of Kansas.
The anti-Taft men scored what seemed to be
a considerable victory in the suh-rommittee by
a decision to give a rehearing in all of the con
tests tentatively decided by the national com
mittee. By a vote of three to two the sub-com
mittee decided to take up each case. The Taft
men In the sub-committee — Harry Daugherty
and Samuel Elder — favored taking the decisions
of the national committee and making them
their own, thus greatly shortening the work of
the credentials committee, but Messrs. Fassett,
Fttapatrick and Rinik^r decided to give a brief
hearing to every contest.

After full >-:., 1 ussion a code of rule.-; was adopted.
The committee on credentials, with Senator C.
W. Fulton, of Oregon, as chairman, at *! o'clock
began an all-night grind on the 110 contests on,
the calendar.

to be decided as soon as the argument Is in.
As soon as the full committee got ready for

BOMB CONTESTS ABANDONED.
Ormsby McHarg, formerly of the United
States Attorney General's office, who appeared
before the national committee in behalf of the
Taft managers, again represented the Taft peo
ple yesterday. Judge B. B. King will repre
sent Senator Forakcr in the Ohio contests. Boon
after the grind of the committee began with
the Alabama contests It was announced that the
North and South Carolina, Virginia and Flor
ida contests bad been abandoned. Mr. Strick

came disgusted with the outlook for bis clients
and started for home, apparently taking with

committee falls M Phut out the Oohen-Vanci
men. It seems that the Warmoth-Whlte ma
chine In LMasMM instructed all the delegates
of the state for Taft. Th»» Cnhen-Vance men
first instructed for Foraker. but later swung
around to Taft. Governor Warmoth says that
this kind of business Is too transparent. The
temporary organization gave the two wings half
a vote each, and Cohen arid. Vance are satisfied
with that, if they can force, a reorganization of
the party after they gret home.
Said Mr. Warmoth: "The, only thinp the
Cohen-Vance people charge us with is being the
Illy v.hlte' party— that is, an organization with
out black men in it. That is not tnie. We have
negroes on all of our committees and seven of
our delegates to this convention are usgTOSS.
The national committee found It easier to split
the delegation, giving half a vote each, than
to do right. Even' member of thn national
committee I have talked with admits that are are
the only real Republican organization, but in
spite of that fact the national committee, solely
on the ground of expediency, Is trying to recog
nize both wings at the same time. The result
SNAPPED IN A CHICAGO HOTEL.
will be that the Republicans of the slat^ will be.
disfranchised, as the decision practically means
that neither organization is regular. This is all
because of the cowardice of the national com
mittee. I have been here since June 5, paying
big hotel bills, and I am mighty sick of it all."
Ex-United States Senator Deboe, of Kentucky,
representing the Bradley-Fairbanks Republicans
of that state, said that his people beat the Taft
men 4 to 1. but that the Taft men wanted the
delegates and got up the contests. "If the con
vention does not do the right thing by us, the Re
publicans, who carried the state four years ago
and who have since carried it for yiyernor
Bradley, will swing things th" other way, and
Kentucky will be out of the Republican column
for good," he said.
Walter Cohen, who is register of the Land
Office in Louisiana, says that all he wants is
an organization.
"Warmoth and White have had a close cor
poration long enough." said he. "The only sat
isfaction we have had in four years was to-day,
when we sat in the convention immediately in
front of the Warmoth-White machine dels
gates/' said Cohen.
ALABAMA TAFT MEN SEATED.
After the sub-committee, through chairman
Fassett. had made its report the Elmira man
moved Its adoption in a brief speech. L. B.
Mosely, of Mississippi, tried to substitute a mo
tion making the delegates on the temporary roll
the regular delegates. He was defeated by 28
I to 5.
By agreement counsel for the contestants in
the Alabama districts, involving twenty-two
delegates, agreed to submit the contests in a
bunch, each side taking fifty-five minutes.
There was an abundance of fiery oratory, after
which the action of the national committee in
seating the Taft nen, who were opposed by the
friend? of Governor Hughes, was ratified by a
vote of OS to 70. Charles A. Bookwalter, of
Indiana, moved to change the rule so as to
admit evidence in rebuttal. He was squelched.
This gave Taft two more contested seats.
The Louisiana contests were withdrawn on the
understanding that the contestants will settle
their fight among themselves by to-morrow
noon ani that neither side will be recognized in
the distribution of convention places until they
are agreed.
The Ist Georgia District contest was thrown
out, and the contest in the 3d District went by
default, as the contestants had not appeared
before the national committee.
Ex-United States Senator Deboe appeared for
the anti-Taft contestants in the Ist Kentucky
District. The argument was a duplicate of that
offered before the national committee, and the
Taft men won by 38 to 50. Senator Bradley,
representing the Fairbanks men. argued for
the anti-Taft contestants in the sth District con
test, and five minutes' additional time was al
lowed him. W. M. Bullitt opened for the Taft
men. The committee voted to seat the Cowan-
Belknap delegates, who are Instruct! 1 for Taft.
The 6th District contest went the same way.
Governor Bradley losing out after ten minutes'
argument.
The Taft men won in the ll th Kentucky Dis
trict after arguments by Senator Bradley for
the anti-Taft men and by E. S. Helburn for
the other . v.
Mississippi was next on the docket, and the
Moseley-Yellowly (Taft) delegates got the de
cision in the lirst contest. There were eight
contests in Mississippi.
There is less and [ess probability of- the de
feated contestants taking their grievances to
the floor of the convention. The Cannon men
said that while they bad intended to carry
th« light to the last ditch, the result was so
certain to be adverse to them that it would
not be worth while to appeal tp the convention.
Following Hi" disposition of the first Missis
sippi contest counsel withdrew, and as soon as
they were outside Fred c. Bryan, of counsel
for the "allies," charged Ormsby licHarg with
unprofessional conduct. This angered tlcHarg,
who made a hot reply. The men started toward
each other, but friends kept hem apart till a
policeman came, when they cooled off
In th« Sd Mississippi District arguments were
made by D. W. Garry for the contestants and
W. .1. Latham for the Taft side. The committee
decided to seat the Lacey-Waldauer (Taft) dele
gation.
In the sth Mississippi District the Price Wil
son (Taft) delegation uas seated after heated
argument, a "colored brother's" word pictures
obtruding themselves far into the outer dark
ness of Wahash avenue. Up to I_' :{n o'clock
more than half the contests had h<»en heard, the

Among those heard "was a delegation or
women, Including Mrs. Ilenrotin, of this city,
and Miss Jane Addams, of Chicago. Miss Ad
dams argued that as women were Interested in
legislation for the protection of humanity in its
domestic relations they should receive the fran
chise- otherwise they would be unable under
present conditions to X " forward with the work
required* cl them aa the mothers of the race.
Mrs. Ilenrotin expressed confidence that the
Democrats would declare for equal suffrage, said
Mr. Bryan had announced his advocacy of that
policy and advised th% Republicans to forestall
and make sure of the favorable influence of the
women of the country by inserting a liberal
plank in favor of woman suffrage.
A large delegation, representing Polish. Ital
ians Bohemians. Germans. Jews and other na
tionalities, was heard in support of liberal immi
gration legislation. They announced through
one of their speakers. Editor Zarnieki. of this
city, that they were opposed to restrictions on
account of poverty. The speaker said he fa
vored neither a financial nor an educational test,
and declared that those whom he represented
would judge the party by the kind of plank it
might insert on this subject. He would keep
out all anarchists and immoral immigrants.
Henry D. Clarke, of Omaha, spoke In sup

NEW MEXICANS HEARD.
Governor Curry of New Mexico, congress
Delegate Andrews, of tliat territory, and Judge
Rodey, :i resident of New alexico, and new
United States judge in Porto Rico, addressed
the committee in support of the proposition to
grant single statehood to that territory. Mr.
Rodej said that New Mexico had been kept
out of the union for twenty-eight years by the
circumstance that in 1880 Delegate (now Sen
ator) Elkins had gone out to shake hands with
Senator Burrows at a critical moment when the
statehood bill was pending in the House of
Representatives.
Governor Cum assured th<» committee that
if admitted New Mexico would send to Con
gress two Republican Senators and also R<=
publican members .if the House. Committee
man Sloan, of Arizona, advocated the admis
sion of that territory as a state Representa
tives of both territories agreed thru since the
experience of last session joint statehood was
no longer to be considered.
A plank for Arizona statehood presented
y j. i- sioan. of Prescott, a member of the
committee, ami Percy Ellis, of Chicago, was
heard in favor of a declaration against inter
state shipments of prison made goods, and then
came the public discussion of tha Injunction
question.
H. H. Fuller, who said h*» represented the
Brotherhoods of LocomotiA Engineers, Firemen
and Trainmen 230,000 men presented what Is
regarded ;<:- thu most radical of all injunction
propositione in evidence. It read:
We- pledge ourselves to such legislation up will

ARGUMENT OF >iH. FUIXER
hi support of this plans ana in explanation
of the position taken by his organizations. Mr.
Fuller dwelt at some length on several phases
of the question, llf made the point that a law
on the subject would bo no more a reflection on
the Judiciary than a new law on any other sub
ject, and asserted that for seventy-nine years
from 1793 the statute* contained a provision
that no ex-parte Injunction could be Issued.
This law. he said, was changed during, a codi
fication of the statutes
Mr. Fuller made the statement that an in
junction was in effect law. Considering it from
this point of view. he dwelt on the manner in
which it was formulated and often invoked by
a judge without consideration ami enforced with
great hardship to labor. He wanted tit" right
of labor to strike and to persuade others to
strike upheld by law
Questioned by Frank B. Kellogg. Mr. Fuller
paid be not only wanted no injunction to issue
without preliminary notice, bin ha wanted a
guarantee of a jury trial on th* facts brought in
issue by injunction proceedings. In this con
nection he made the point that personal rights
would thus b<? conserved, and .such rights ought
to be held above property rights of any charac
ter which might be involved.
An answer to Mr. Fuller was made by J. A.
Emery, of New York, general counsel for the
National Association of Manufacturers. Mr.
Em?ry pointed out first that the legislators of

the. Republican party in the House had deter
mined that as lawmakers they would not at
tempt to invade the judicial realm by changing
a practice which had been developed during the
last seven hundred years for the protection of
both property rights and mixed personal and
; property rights. The remedy, if in any single
instance injustice had been done, was in tho
impeachment of the judge, he said. It would be
as potent to sue the whirlwind, or to bring a
law action against the storm or the earthquake
as to be compelled to rely for redress in some
labor troubles on fhe law instead of the equity
side of the court.
Mr. Emery stated with some emphasis that
hi* opponents had for two years had a standing
invitation to file with the Judiciary committees
of Congress all th» cases they could find where
injunctions had been misused in labor disputes.
The result had been that less than a month Ago
eighteen eases had been filed, covering a period
of fifteen years, and in only one of these cases
had the injunction been modified.
Mr. Kellogg began a running fire of questions
when Mr. Emery had concluded his argument.
"What objection is there to requiring notice?"
he said.
••That is the present practice," was the answer.
"Then what is the objection?"
"I do not see any reason for enacting into law
what would only be a reflection on the courts."
"Who would be hurt?"
"The judges, sir."
Chairman Hopkins of the committee indicated
that time was rapidly lapsing, and cut the col
loquy short.
Gilchrist Stewart, of New York, a negro, next
claimed the attention of the committee to inject
"a little color" into the deliberations, as he ex
pressed it. Mr. Stewart wanted two planks
adopted for the benefit of the black man. One
to be a declaration which would answer the
question. "Shall lily whiteism. masquerading
under the Republican banner, be permitted to
nullify the 14th and loth amendments to the
: Constitution of the United States?"
The other demanded the restoration of th»
"innocent" discharged soldiers of the 2."» th Regi
ment of Infantry — the Brownsville affray.
PROTEST AGAINST TARIFF REVISION.
A protest against any tariff revision that would
fix such a high minimum rate as to afford no in
ducement for the. formation of trade agreements
was made by Judge 'Samuel Cowan, of Fort
Worth, Tex., in behalf of the American Live
stock Association. A revision of that character.
h<» said, would force such a condition that the
maximum tariff could be used only for the pur
pose of retaliation and thus destroy the real
purpose of a maximum and minimum tariff.
Congressman Serene E. Payne, of New York.
presented a protest from a number of New
York business men against curbing th«» indepen
dence of the courts in the issuance of injunc
tions.
Th* last speaker before The committee was
John L. Hamilton, of Illinois, president of the
American Bankers' Association, who opposed a
plank favoring the establishment of postal sav
ings banks.
Mr. Hamilton told the committee that the
bankers of tbe country bettered that the intro
duction of such banks would be poor policy, that
they would take from 10 to 60 per cent of the
deposits now in state savings banks and similar
institutions, and would tend to cause still fur
ther withdrawals in times of financial pani~.
He thought the matter might safely be left If*
the commission established by the recently
adopted Aldrich-Vreeland act.
The room was then cleared and the committee
went into executive session.
The only business transacted in executive ses
sion was the appointment of a sub-conunittee
of thirteen, which was decided upon at the be
ginning of the session, and which was composed
as follows:
Hopkins, of Illinois, chairman: Long. Kansas:
Crane, Massachusetts; Kellogg, Minnesota;
Payne. New York: Adams. North Carolina;
Ellis, Ohio; Crawford. South Dakota: Dalzell.
Pennsylvania: Clark, Wyoming; Warner, Mis
souri; Gallinger, Washington, and Greener, Vir
ginia.
The full committee adjourned to meet .-it 4
o'clock to-morrow, with the understanding that
at that time the sub-ci«mmittee should be pre
pared to report.
The sub-committee went into session at t>
o'clock to-night.
Senator Long, of Kansas, who made the
motion during the first .session of the com
mittee to-day tor the appointment of a sub
committee to consist of thirteen members, and
who was the first member appointed by Sen
ator Hopkins, chairman, said to-night in dis
cussing the platform:
"1 am going to ,io everything possible la the
comntittse to make a platform in line with
Roosevelt and Taft. especially as shown by
the latter In his speeches preceding this con
vention. I do not expect we shall make a plat
form satisfactory to the extremists on either
side, but I do believe it will be satisfactory to
the great body of Republican* and that they
will indorse it."
Senator Long had particular reference to the
much discussed injunction question. Be .stated
it was his belief that tins plank would merely
declare against summary action by th« courts,
without recommending anything that would
lessen the dignity and prerogatives of the court*
an established by long practice.
When he went to the sub-committee meeting
at '.» o'clock to-night Senator Long said:
"I do nut believe the. gravity of tins platform
fight is appreciated, ' it is simply a question ..f
whether the platform will be along well known
administration lines or whether It will be the
platform of the 'allies.'"
The sub-committee made little progress with
its work to-night. The question of the anti
