STALWARTS !N ASCENDANCY Vice-President Sherman and Other Speakers Arraign In surgency in the Party. Milwaukee. June &.— Denunciation of the Insurgents and commendation of the Re publican national administration we« the trviw! of a number of speeches at th« first session of the Republican estate convention to-day. Every mention of President Taft'a name by the various speakers was followed by a demonstration. Vlce-Presid>nt James S. Sherman, who came from Wa-hlneton to address the con vention, dropped Into the bell during the afternoon and was warmly welcomed. He spoke at a session of the convention to night. Th»' real woik of the convention, that of formulating a platform, will not be reached until to-morrow, as the matter of naming candidates for a state ticket probably will I>e left for the primary election in Sep tember. It seemed to sa the consensus of opinion to-nlxbt that the platform will deal entire ly with national issues, indorsing President Taft anil criticising Republican office-hold ers not in sympathy with his policies. Executive Chairman Emanuel L,. Philipp, in introducing temporary Chairman Michael K. Dillon, of Ashland, extolled the national administration and adversely criticised the insurgents, and every speaker who fol lowed spoke along the same lines and 7.lrad>d for harmony in the party. Judge I>vl Tl. Bancroft, of Richland Cen tre, formerly of the La Follette faction, who was chosen as i>ermanent chairman, bitterly arraigned the Insurgent move ment in Congress and within the Republi can party. He said it meant the disruption <> party organization and the substitution therefor of a one-man despotism. G:ith**re<l in the convention was ft num ber of former adherents of Senator La Fol .ettr. notable among whom were ex-Gov ernor William D. Hoard and William D. Conner. The majority of the 1,055 delegates from every part of the state, however, are adherents of the stalwart wing of th* party. There are five avowed candidates in the ttsU for the Governorship nomination, ex clusive of Governor Davidson, who has not declared himself. Th» features of Mr. Dillon's speech were praise for the Republican party. and espe cially the national administrations of Roosevelt and Taft, and a rebuke to men elected upon party tickets who uar their office* ana abilities to delay and defeat party legislation to make political capital for themselves. Political parties. In paid, must outline their policies, and when a majority of dele- Rated Individuals agree upon those princi ples i; Is tre duty of men elected to office by that party to aM in carrying out those peSeias. Tstn rr<aHnSil James S. Sherman, accom panied by ex -Congressman James K. Wat saa, of Indiana, arrived In Milwaukee to day an.l was met by a large reception com mittee and escorted to the Hotel Pfeleter for luncheon with a large number of prom inent Republican leaders. Mr. Sherman in his speech before the convention, pleaded the cause of regular Republicanism and urged the insurgents to return to f he fold. From the time he ■ttsrei his salutation to the "P.adgerltes -•• Republican persuasion" until the last word was spoken he kept insurgency in mind, now rebuking the breaking away from party and then pleading for harmoni ous and concerted action within the lines. '•What is a. Republican?" was. the first subject that Mr. Sherman dealt with after be lia<l paid a warm tribute to President '!■;■! t as the leader of his party. The speaker recalled that Congressman Champ Clark recently -aid the devil himself could not answer that question. "That question may stump the devil, who may naturally be assumed to be a Decocrat." said Mr. Sherman, "but 111 venture the assertion that every twelve jrear-oU bay hi Wisconsin can answer it and that the simple but comprehensive reply would be: 'A man who votes the Republican ticket at the polls and votes for Republican measures in <'oiigr«-5.«." " The \'i>--T'rt .-i.lont f.sked that if this was the correct answer, If the converse was not true- "that a man who does not vote the Republican ticket, who does not support Republican measures an.l Republican poli > i,-- is Dot :« Republican?" Mr Sherman sras received with lend ac claim, lie said that when he received the Invitation to come I" Milwaukee to »id dre*s the Republican convention he was arced by President Taft to accept It; that i. ... President was interested In Wiscon sin, and was anxious that the party In this state become united. in opening bis address, which in a gr*at measure had u> do with 'insurgents,** the \ p-President sai<l: ".Sonx- say we don't want leaders. We want leaders: )• it we «lon*t want self-con- Btltnted lea<!«-rs;." Throughout the delivery of his address Mr. Bhemtan was frequently interrupted ■with outburst* of applanae. Especially was this *o when he referred to President Taft. 1 66 BALLOT BOXES SEIZED Black Charges Against Dalzell To Be Heard Friday. Ptttsbanj; June I. — Counsel for Dr. Rob j «-rt J.

Dcs Monies, lowa. June S.— With only five, counties missing: -to-night. Governor B. F. Carroll, RepuWtcan. is nominated, lor re election by- a majority or 706 rotes over Warren C. Garst, progressive Republican. The missing counties arc known as Carroll Btrongholds. and probably will bring bis majority up to 1,600 or 2,000. ' • The surprise .of the election is the ma jority rolled up by Judge Prouty, progres sive, over Congressman Hull. Prouty car ried every county- in the district, his unoffi cial majority being 3.1 W. Two rears ago Hull was nominated by 40 votes over Prouty. President Taft early in the cam paign spoke in this district In support of the administration policies. The defeat of Garst by so email a mar gin is held to indicate to some degree the general sentiment of the state on national affair?, despite the fact that Governor Car roll insisted that he was running on his state record. Two years ago Carroll was nominated over Garst by 22,000 votes. Almost- complete returns to-night show that 2d District Democrats, at first he lieved to have chosen J. A. De Armand, nominated I. S. Pepper. Regular Republicans say that they will control the next state convention, having a bare majority of the 1,400 delegates chosen yesterday. The platform, it 13 said, may go so far as to condemn the course of Sena tors Cummins and Dollirer. Following are the Congressional candi dates : REPUBLICAN. Ist District— C. A.

"The principal fight of the "Progressives' was waged upon Congressman Hull," said Senator Cummins."

WILL LEAVES HIM $25,000 Death of Former New York Woman in Chicago Becomes Known Through Will. Cnieago. June — The sudden death of Mrs. Fannie ,S. Ste«le In a Chicago hotel on Monday became known to-day when Mrs*. Steele's will was fiied In the probate court. Kdgar R. Accetta. of Now York, an Ital ian tenor singer, who, it was reported, sued her for $100,000 for breach of promise some time ago. receives $25,000 by Mrs. Steele's will. The esttmattd value of Mrs. Steele's estate is 5500.000. Accetta was in Chicago on Monday, and is said to have be*n at Mrs. Btosle's bedside when sho died. Her death Is reported by the hotel physicians to have been caused by apoplexy. - ■ Accompanied by Miss Kate McArdlc, who had been her companion for twenty-three years. Mrs. Steel* came to Chicago from her home in New i'ork ten days ago to at tend to business affairs. She had $26,000 in a steel box in her room when she died. Shortly after th; death of her husband, fifteen years ago, Mrs. Ste*>le became en gaged to marry accetta. She then broke the engagement, el ling Accetta he would ruin his life by marrying a woman of her years. Accetta thm sued her for breach of promise in the New York courts. The suit was settled out of court on an agreement that Accetta should receive an annual in come and $23,000 at Mrs. Steele's death. The larger part of Mrs. Steele's estate Is left to Klmer E. Sari, West Troy, N. V., a cousin and memtor of the firm of Karl & Wilson. Kx-Judgp Nash Rockwood, Sara toga Springs, N. V., one of the executors of the estate, receives $10,003 by the will. Miss IfcArdJe, M-s. Steele's companion, re ceives $3,000, Jewelry and personal effects. Assistant Mate's Attorney Nicholas Ificbels, of Chicago, one of the executors of the Steele estate, took chargo of Mrs. Steeled affairs immediately following her death. He file<T the will an.l also took charge of th*> $26,000 in currency found in Mrs. Steele's room. Mlchels stated that Mrs-. SJfcele owned Chicago downtown prop erty valued at J250.000. According to Michel?, Accetta arrived ii Chicago last Saturday on hi* way to St. Paul. He called on Mrs. Steele at her ho tel. Learning that she was 111, ho aban doned his trip and sp*-nt much time with her. Early last Sunday morning. Accetta was walking with Phillipe Catalano. a Chicago acquaintance, whoa Catalano was shot ana instantly killed by an unidentified Italian. Accetta was arrested ami held by the po lice as a witness until after the inquest into Catalano'3 murder. He sent word of his predicament to Mrs. Steel**, and phy?i eiani" nay that the shock of this news has tened Mr.=. Steele'P death. Accetta hastened to the hotel after he was released by tho police and found Mrs. Steeie in a semi-conscious condition. She died later In his presence. Mrs. Steele was born in Chlcapo, being a daughter of the late Samuel Siirdam, a wholesale hardware dealer. She was Ural married here forty year? ago to Alexander Steel*-, her father's business partner. "When Steele died, fifteen years since, she went to New York, where ten years ago she was married to Dr. William Bradley. She was divorced from Dr. Bradley two years later, resuming the name of Steele. X"or several years Mr*. Bteele made h«»r home at the Wilbrahsm Apartment Hotel, Fifth ave nue and 30th street. Elmer K. Earl. Mrs. Steele's rousin, came here from his home at East Troy. N. V., but whether before or after her death could not be learned. Earl refused to sec any one to-night. Mr. XlchelS said that Mrs. Bteele had come to Chicago to draw a new will. He said, however, that he had delayed in tak ing up the work with her because of pres sure of work In the Lee O'Ncll Browns al leged bribery trial. Mr. Mlehels also sa.i.l that Mrs. SteHe drew the $28,000 from a New York bank just before her departure f (> r Chicago. He also admitted that he. had heard Mrs. Steelc'a relatives desired her to cut Ao cetta'f* name from her will. Asked if ho thought Mrs. Steel* had ob tained the money to pay Accotta, and thus close her obligation to him. Mr. Michel* Kald he was undecided. A police theory Is that Accetta may have Mopped in Chicago to get the |S,«sl in cash from Mrs. Steeie and that information re garding th*» rumored settlement got abroad. They think that as a result Catalan" was murdered by a man who believed that Cat alans and Accetta were then in possession of the large sum which Mrs. Steele brought with her from New York.
