THE SUN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 1916.
Roomy tf lieutenant have been
hocked br thla development. Thera l
a strong undercurrent among the dele
gate against even considering Mr.
Rooeevelt aa the Kepubtlcan nominee.
tt la apparent that the men who have
coma to attend the convention, although
Intensely desirous of harmony, cannot
forgive and forget to the point of eon
altering Col. Hooftvett aa tho possible
lflr of the party.
Thla situation haa gradually dawned
nn Ueorge W. 1'crklns anil the other
HooMVelt lieutenant here, but It la said
that they huvo hesitated to Inform the
Colonel of the real fuel In the situa
tion. Tha failure of Mr. 1'erklns to control
the Bull Mow"! delegate and to postpone
tha Progressive nomination until after
tha Repulblcans have acted was not al
together unexpected by the Republican
leaders.
Mr. Parkin flnda himself In virtually
tha aame position that tho Republican
leaders are In. They have a conven
tion en their hands, but -will be unable
to deliver the delegated to l!ooexett.
even If they o desired. Mr. I'crklu
alio has a convention, but he cniitiot
deliver tho delegates. It looks as If
both the Republican and the Troireaslve
assemblies thl year will b run by
lmprewlve evidence of the dbpo-ltlon

hand In managing the affair or Hie lb-
publican convention was found lo-dax
In the action of the .New Jersey
delegation. Thl delegation apparently
had made up It mind that the leader
were hopelessly Mocked In their efforts
to bring about a harmonious under
standing with the Progressives and they
adopted n resolution requesting the at -potntment
of a committee to confer with
a committee from the I'rognsslxe on
the question of tiarmonlou notion.
This Independence on the vari of the
delegate wan daggering tn some of the
Old Ouard leaders, especially to Kranklln
Murphy, the suppewed lender of the Jer
sey delegation, who had not even been
consulted with regard to the notion ofn(M, (t ,ln-
tha delegation.
The attitude nf the Republican df.

declared to.ddy that he was ready to
predict that the, ltepiibllr.ni convention
eouldl not be delivered by the s. -cilli ,t
leaders and that the nnmlnnio-i ..uld

In the I'rosressp. r cmp Mr Perkins

he put out the flrt thing this morning
and advertised In the newi-papers. It is
addressed "To the Progrele delegate-
:

The Progressive leader elung to the
hope of earryliiK through a harnio U
programme until the meeting of the Nn- j
IIUIIMI '.VIIlllUll' ' VI .....
afternoon. At this meeting Prof. Albert
iushnell Hart, as leader of the Massa
chusetts delegation, urged that the e-on-veiillon
proce-d st emir to the nomina
tion of Col, Roosevelt.
William Hamlin Child, Vb-mr Mur
dock and other counselled giving thei
Republicans time enough to turn around.
Mr. Child, whom everybody looked on
as Mr. lV't kllib's spokesman at t It's ine-e-t-Ing,
Insltiti'd thero was no reason for
the delegate to be distrustful of their
leaders; that none of thi-m had any
other Intention than to hrlng about Mr
Roosevelt's nomination.
Mr. Murdock told the meeting that
hs Btlll believed Mr. Iloosevelt would
eventually be the nominee of the Ilepub
llcan as a result of the deadlock.
It was agreed, however, by all hand"
that the Progressive convention should
be called to order at noon to-morrow
and should proe-eed with Its re-gular pro.
gramme, and that when the regular
time came for the nomination for lr
Ident the convention should proceed to
nominate Mr. Roosevelt. There wan no
vote taken on this and noun wo ti:ces
sary. Nobody expressed illssi ut
Balnbrldge Colby, when he left the
meeting, said that nothing else but the
nomination of Mr. Room-veil would
satisfy the delegates
"There Ik not a leader here ' he said,
"who would dare deliver a fraction of
these delegates for any one but i'ol
Roosevelt. Ho would need a guard of
600 policemen If he tried It "
Then Mr. Colby added with a laugh '
"They am all In favor of delaying
the nomination of TIiecJore Itoisevrlt
until the fJrt practicable moment "
tlrlrgatra Approve.
Progressive delegate who tilled the
Auditorium Hotel while the meeting wan
in progress expressed approval of the
determination to go ahead und nominate
Col. Roosevelt, though there were some
who did not seem to like tho Idea of
waiting longer than Thursday.
Tho men who have taken tho bit do
not neem to be considering the possi
bility that the Colonel will not accept
their nomination. These delegates have
Mich unquestioned faith In lilm that
they do not seem to doubt at all that
tho Colonel will size up the situation
as a repetition of 1915. when they ten
dered such a nomination to hint and lie
took It.
They are preparing to whoop It up
exactly hm they did then. The stage ha
all been -et for the same kind of a
show a Chicago aw four year ago.
And nobody can stop the. delegate from
giving the performancei they have In
mind unlef It be the Colonel himself.
It would not Hurpil otu of the Pro
gressive, lr-iderr. If Col. Iloosevelt came
to Chlcatto to bead off the runaway
who have got beyond the e-nntrol of
Perkln tid llwi other leiiilem. Ttieo-
dora Douglas Robinson, Urn Colonel'
nephew, said to.day that eireumetatirea
might hHsc which might make the Colo
nel's presence ililrable, but that at
preaent there wa no Intention i Roose
velt making th trip.
There wero circumstantial report that
Iloosevelt Iihb assured Mr. Perkins that
he would come to Chicago, If necessary,
in help PeTklnw carry out the iirograiunie
which the leader had agreed upon.
Tha enthusiasm of the Progretslve
delegates wbn fanned Into a flam by
statement published here tn (lis offset
ihst Col Iloosevelt had lint word that
he would not stand for Justice Hughe.
Thtaa rtporta war denied by Mr. Per
kins and other Progressive.
Espect T. It.'a nefaaal.
Many Republicans who have been co
bperatlng with Perklnt in an effort to
bring harmony Into tha situation,
despairing of heading off the nomination
of Koostvelt by the Bull Mooe, tried
to make, the best of It by arguing that,
after all, It tnltrht bo the beat aolutloti
of the problem. They contended that
Mr. Roosevelt would not lake the nomi
nation and that hl refusal would give
the Uull Moose convention an opportunity
lo turn In and Indorse the Republican
nominee after the Colonel had eliminated
himself.
Homo Republican were Inclined to re
gard the latex development In the
Progressive, ramp with suspicion, be
lieving they might he part of the general
plan to fore Roosevelt's name before,
the) Republican convention, There I no
doubt, however, of the sincerity of tho
effort that Mr. Ferkln lias mad to con
trol the Hull Moose, and of hi failure,
to do so.
