PREMIUM DEPARTMENT ~r
THE AMERICAN TOBACCO CO., St. Louis, Mo.,
Chairman New Says Committee Has
Power to Fill Vacancy.
Chicago, June 24.—When apprised
of the illness of Representative James
S. Sherman, the Republican vice presi
dential nominee, Harry S. New, chair
man of the national committee, ex
pressed great regret.
While the friends of Mr. Sherman
are taking a hopeful view of his case
the question naturally arises regard
ing the course of procedure in case of
his demise. Mr. New was tiearly of
opinion that In such event the national
committee would have full power to
name a vice presidential candidate.
They are, he said, vested with similar
power with regard to the presidential
candidate, but said that where there
was sufficient time before election to
do so the committee would reassemble
the convention and have a nomination
made in the regular way. While there
Is no precedent to guide the national
committee in filling a vacancy there
teems to be no doubt that the commit
tee has authority to name a candidate
tor vice president in the event of the
death of Mr. Sherman. This is the
opinion of a number of the members
of the national Republican committee,
it being stated that the representa
tive of the state on the national com
mittee stands in the place of the state
ielegation to the national convention
and therefore has authority to act for
the delegation in the event of a va
cancy on the national ticket.
IN CASE SHERMAN DIES. DELEGATES UNINSTRUCTED

dential candidate had been compelled
to go to a hospital in Cleveland, O.,
and that Or. Finn^r of Baltimore, who
attended Mr. Sherman, during an at
tack of the same trouble in Washing

The news received here is very dis

turn here.
