The confusion in the lobby pt tho Belvl

with tho commotion in the Kmerson Hotel,
where the various Presidential booms are
housed. The Clark iieonlo rcall?.ed from
tho start that Bryan had given them a '
hard nut to crack and tho Wihon men also
shifted about rather uneasily till theyl
thought of Chrk's discomfiture. Then
their spirits perked up. There was no i

By this time a considerable crowd had
gathered around Mr Taggart in the cor

"But do you consider Judge Parker

moro or lc '"deflnito Intention of gojng
back to the country with the proposal to
start i new party.
Without doubt tho more belligerent
men among the friends of tho Colonel
will insist upon putting his name to a
rump convention. Col. Roosevelt him
self d(xs not countenance this plan.
If his ndvieo is followed those who will
not recognize the action of the convention
a at present constituted will go quietly
,UCK to U1",r own al,rlc,s
worlt of undlnK progressive sentiment,
'Hie Roosevelt enthusiasm has ended
witli a suddenness that parses U-lief.
As a matter of fact, the steam roller nt.
followers, who have no use for
passive nKjstance. The surrender of
the plan to bolt tho convention on ac
ceptaueo of an unfavorable report from
the committee on credentials knocked
the tight out of tho Colonol's delegates.
Tho reason why the moderate, scheme
was formulated and accepted by tho
Colonel's advisers was tho realization
by the Colonel himself that the lighters
could not carry tho Roosevelt delegation
with them. Thus the plan to throw
the convention into disorder and to put
a hoomjvou partisan in ttie chair by
force was dlscovere.1 and with It went the
"light 'em" spirit
.Nothing showed the change of fighting
nor wero there as many conferences
between tho Colonel's field marshals.
The hallways were like a battlefield
alter tho armies have met and one ha '
lost. A few of the men who have fought
with the Colonel througn many victorious i

dictates.
"If he should ask mo to come in there
and niacK ins coots, saiu one ot in
West Virginians,
I would do it and be
glad.
OoiTlt
Hns l'nilefl .tn.
Thus the crowd that taxed the strength
of tho Chicago police faded uway. In
tho Florentine room, which has served
the convention as the Roosevelt head
quarters, there were speeches by the
Never Say Die partisans from early morn
ing until lato in the evening nnd there
was band music and singing. The room
was never packed. The hallways, which
have been tilled with a shouting, panting
mob of Roosevelt enthusiasts from the
j time that the Colonel made his first ap-
pearanci) here, were empty throughout
, most of the day except of the guard and
, newt-paper men. The guards had noth
ing to do.
The loyal followers who have put thotn
selves under the Colonel's standard and
havo declared themselvess his peculiar
army no matter where lie may lead them
met in tho hallway from time to time
and talked over the prospect for a new
party. They were sure that one would
lie born. They said it would not organize
on the ashes of tho present convention,
but would l postponed until they heard
from their own districts. The progres
sive convention, if it takes ulnce at all,
will not come for a month or six weeks
at the very earliest. Col. Roosevelt, ns
he indicated in his statement to th" dele
gates yesterday, is not willing to go into
tho progressive light unless there is a
demand for his presence, lie adds thnt
the demand must bo "general " Tile
delegates must go back lo their districts,
sound local opinion nnd see if the pro
gressive idea is general enough to warrant
the lorination of a new party,
Somo of tho Colonel's friends pointed
out that such a parly would draw from
both the Republican and
Democratic !
parties a 4 they now stand. Thoy ovon'l
suggested that the withdrawal of radical 1
elements: might in time bring about a
coalition lietweon tho conservative wings
of both tho old parties nnd givo us in

conservative loaders, hesitate at tho
formation of. a now party, which thoy

tho men who can't break old bonds or who
feel that tho wholo unmodified progressive
programmo ns it would npixvir in tho plat
form of a now p.irly would bo too radloi 1
to succood.
Tho tried and truo adherents of tho
Colonel who talked to-day In tho corridors
of tho Congress said, howover, that prose
lytes from tho Democratic party would
bo more than enough to carry tho pro
gressive programmo through. They will
gA back to their districts and talk to tholr
constituents. Thoy have no doubt that
by tho mil hi lo of August there will be a
progressiva convention and that this
convention will nomlnato Theodore Rooso
velt. "If thoro Is a progressive party," tho
Colonel has said repeatedly, "I will bo In
It."
But he has made It equally plain that he
will not seek the nomination. If It comes
to him ho will accept, provided, as he has
Insisted from tho beginning, that tho
demand is sufficiently general to warrant
tho movement at all. Tho friends of
the Colonol wore surprised to-day at the
action of tho convention in accepting tho
report of tho credentials committee
seating tho two California debgates.

"The California contests woro tho
rawest of tho lot," they said. "Wo rather
thought they would gi vo us these, so that
they would be ablo to say to tho cotirtry,
'There, do you see? Wo'vo given in to
them.' We expected that thay would
give us California and with them fifteen or
sixteen more, but not enough to nominate
Col. Roosevelt. This would havo given a
stronger position lieforo tho country.
"But now that the two California con
tests have been thrown wo expect that
they will givo us nono of tin contostad
delegates at all "
Tho crisis in the enthusiasm for Col.
Roosevelt was met and passed at 10 o'clock
last night when he came out of a meeting
of delegates in the Florentine room at tho
Congress. The crowd in the hall was
suffocating. Women who had come in
the morning were still there, filled with
the excitement of seeing tho Colonel's
swift passage through tho hall. The
crowd cheered and ho waved to them in
his short armed, fisted way.
But as soon ns he vanished behind tho
door of tho Presidential suite and the
door slammed Ivehind him the crowd
began to filter away. Tho delegates
coming from the meeting let it bo known
that vigorous action was suspended, per
haps dismissed.. The report dampened
their imcr st. .V few mmW tater-tho-word
was passed around that the Colonel

all tho people had gone except a few who
were still drawn by the sight of the
Colonel's importm-buhlo door.
It was nearly in o'clock this morning
when the Colonel reappeared. He went
swiftly to the quarters nt tho Congress

were no people to block the passage. i
The Colonel had not boon in his private I
quarters long before Senator Borah ap-

they came out Senator Borah said that I
Ithev had been making a friendly call.
i Not long after Senator Dixon, the Colonel's
' manager, came to talk over tho plans for

There came also a few members of tho
Colonel's inner circle. There were not

He has received letters from individual
delegates Irom other States, many of
them telling him that they will stick to
the end. but California is always spoken
of as the State which tho Colonel holds
absolutely. Rx-Gov. Regis II. Post of
Porto Rico, who has been in the Colonel's
tight from the beginning and enjoys it;
Jaiues R. (i.irlicld, some of tho Outlook
staff and Medill Mel'ormick Were other
visitors to the Colonel's room. There
was no hustle nor hurry. They came
and went without tho usual flourishes
ami some of them lingered around the
hallways talking things over with friends.
.Most of them showed tho stroll! of the
Inst few days. Their laces wero hag

spirit that stands up under such days of
bad luck at oker hud their disappoint
ment .
After the convention began its session
there were no moro visits from the Presi
dential marshals, Across tho hall from
the private quarters in the Florentine
room sympathize began to stir things
up. People came and went, nnd some
of them showed interest in tho speeches '
which spellbinders mado from desk tops

entertainment was of tho shirt sleeve
kind. Tint orators charged tho National
Committee with theft, said they were

of the speakers went so fnr a to put up

PREXDEROAST SILENCED
Comptroller Will Xot Make Ills
Speech Naming Colonel
for President.
Chicago, Juno 21. Comptroller Prcn
dcrKnst said to-night that he was not to
present Col. Roosevelt's name formally
to tho convention that he hns been
requested by the Colonel himself not to
do so. When Mr. I'rondergnst was
asked why he was not to make tho
speech he declined to give an answer.
The plan of the Roosevelt people late
to-night Is to sit ullent in the conven
tion after the credentials report has
been completed. They will not present
minority reports from any of the com
mittees nnd will takn no part in any of
the proceedings of tho convention. This
programme applies not to nil of Col.
Roosevelt's delegates, ns some of them
do not believe In participating In what
they call a "silent convention."
Mr. Roosevelt told the delegates In'
caucus to-night that Inasmuch ns the
convention had turned against the
Roosevelt people on the California con
test there was no uso In carrying the
light any further. The delegates un
derstand therefore that they would sit
tight nnd silent on further reports from
the committee on credentials. The effect
of this will he to hasten tho action of
the convention andto further the car
rying out of the Taft people's pro
gramme. This Idea applied also to putting Mr.
RooanvAlt's. name In nomination. A
delegate who came out from the cnu-
! cus late to-night said that he had no ex-
' tnUn nthat Comptroller rrendergast
or nn' "thfr authorized person would
I nominate Mr. Roosevelt, who would be
1 consistent with the order which he has
gvpn th(. delegates Individually nnd In
c1urus
He hns said repeatedly that this Is
not n regular convention ns now con-
stltutcd and that the roll would have
to be purged thoroughly in order to
n)a)( the nomination by It acceptable
to tilm
,-nl- Hoosevelt retired nt midnight
fagged out after talking with James U.
Oartleld nnd others, and It was Mr. Gar-
field's
oplnlon that Col. Roosevelt's
name would not be presented to the
convention.
"How nbout the delegates instructed
to vote for the Colonel?" Mr. Garfield
was asked and he replied:
"They will get a chance to carry out
,nolr Instruction
When pressed to say whether they
would get that chance here In Chicago
at the close of the convention he replied
thut he could not tell, but that tho
chance would surely come.
After Col. Roosevelt had retired for
the night word came out from the con
ference room thnt the new party will be
christened cither the Progressive party
or the National Progressive party.
To-morrow there will probably bo a
mass meeting of the Roosevelt men at
which plans for the organization of this
party will be discussed.

of tho delegates would be paid.
Inquiries by telophono at Asburv Park

House tho President continues
tight, keep cool and say nothing,
to sit
It can he said authoritatively that
never alnoo ho first entered the fight
has the President wavered In the least.
Ho la evon more determined than ever
to oarry the fight to the finish without

party as now represented at Chicago,
The situation was thoroughly gone over

Whilo tho President was firm In his
stand against any compromise it was
presented emphatically to him by his
advisers that tho developments of the last
two or three days have mado it more
essential than over for him to "stand pat."
Ono member pointed out to him that since
the fight has been carried thus far ho owes
it to tho Republican party for the life of
that party and for its success next fall to
carry tho fight through.
Scores of telegrams of encouragement
along this line reached the President to
day from Chicago and other sections of
tho country.
"Teddy is licked to a frazzle and your
nomination is assured, " wired one of the
party's leaders from the convention hall.
Another telegram, signed by a large
number of tho North Carolina delegates,
read:
"Stick, Bill, stick. Accept no com
promise. North Carolina with you."
Another telegram, signed by delegates
from various States, read:
"Hope you stand unalterably for no
compromise until the necessity, if it
exists, is demonstrated by ballot. We
lelieve you are holding all you have and
likely to mako gains. This statement
is based upon careful investigation."
A prominent Republican of Beaver,
Pa declared that tho President hod the
"autocratic fourflushing Roosevelt beat
to a finish," nnd that tho people of Penn
sylvania were with him "despite Bill Flinn."
The President returned from his golf
game with' his son Robert shortly after
7 o'clock and road all the bulletins that
had come in tho meantime and up to the
adjournment of the session. He had no
callers during the evening.

CillCAOo, June 22 (Saturday, 2 A. M.)
After midnight It becameknown that
Col. Roosevelt has urged Gov. Hadley
not to consent to a nomination for the
Vice-Presidency In this convention.
Gov. Hadley has taken the matter un
der advisement.
Should Gov. Hadley decline tho nom
ination the convention might nominate
Senator Kcnyon of Iowa, who has been
Senator Cummlns's manager here, or
Senutor Itorah of Idaho, and yet on the
other hand, many of the New Yorkers
who have fought for PreMdcnt Taft's
nomination here Insist on tho renom

A consensus of the delegates though

LAST TRIP FOR BLAINE CLUB.
Cincinnati Mnrchcra Not In Attend
Any More Conventions.
Cincinnati, Ohio, June 21, Pleased
with overy feature of the trip to tho
Republican national convention except
their Inability to remain until a candidato
for President is nominated, nearly all of
the members of tho famous Blaine Club,
founded by George B. Cox, returned
to-day from Chicago.
It is not improbable that this was the
last trip tho Blaine Club will make to a
national convention. It was a notice
ablo fact that tho Cinclnnatluns were
the only marching organization that went
to Chicago, Not only did no other out
side city send a uniformed olub but even
Chicago did not produce ono.
It is understood that Charles P. Taft,
brother of the President, and ox-Mayor
Julius Flesohmann paid tho greater
part of the expense of the olub'a trtn to
Chicago and that their refusal to put up
more money caused the return of the
members before the end of the conven

Everything at Chicago last night lndi.
cated that Taft and Hadley would be
tho ticket and that it would be nomi
nated this afternoon or evening.
The President apparently has a aajs)
majority of the delegates, and both tho
Roosevelt nnd Tuft factions agree that
Hadley Is the man for second place.
Secretary Hilles, Senator Crane and
other leaders of the Taft forces said last
night that what they considered the test
vote on the seating of delegates taken In
tho convention, when the Taft men had
B63 to 489 for the Roosevelt delegates,
proved to them that Mr. Taft hus a safe
majority and will surely be renominated.
There was some talk of Taft with
drawing when It became apparent that
ho has a majority and can surely be
renominated, but the managers of his
fight declared that no such action would
bo taken.
The convention, after a running fight,
upheld the National Committee in the
seating of the Taft contesting delegates
In every Instance so far as the work
proceeded, but when tho gathering had
adjourned for the day Michigan had not
been reached. The highest vote, polled
by the Tuft forces was GO.'i in the Ninth
Alabama district ense, while their vote
fell to r.42 In thn California contest.
Tho credentials committee, after an
j all night session, continued to settle
contests In favor of Taft. The Roosevelt
people were outvoted throughout.
The committee on resolutions ad
journed until 9:30 o'clock to-day, re
turning tho report on the platform to
the sub-committee to redraft some of
the planks.
Tho Roosevelt followers, realizing de
feat, will not nominate a ticket In a
rump convention, but will go back to
their constituents, and If they find en
couragement organize a third party nnd
place a ticket In the field.
Many of Roosevelt's most faithful
workers ngree that the Colonel's cause
has been badly hurt by Flinn and
Honey, who early pushed aside Gov,
Hadley, Senator Rornh nnd other less
exploslte progressives.
There Is hope that the convention can
conclude Its work to-night, but Chair
man New of tho arrangements commit
tee has taken tho Coliseum for next
week, fearing Hint the convention will
go over till Monday.
Scandals growing nut of the admis
sion of persons without tickets to tho
Coliseum havo led to changes In the
personnel of the police guard manage
ment. The delegates nnd others who are do
ing the work of tho convention nre near
exhaustion. All are anxious to get the
work finished nnd go home.
