Washington, July 10.?Charges that the Roosevelt party la irylni; to steal Republican electors in various States, and is in a lair way of" making good | on tlio thefl, were made at the White House to-day by Republican leaders who conferred with President Taft. The ' conference related to the se I'loua bituatioii in Kansas, south Da? kota, Pennsylvania, California, and other tJt&les, where tHe Roosevelt loaders have things In splendid shape to support Roosevelt men tot electors under the i over and guise of Repub? lican electors. Those who talked with tho Pr< si tl.-nt and Secretory Hilles were Repre sctitatlvoa Burke, Moore ami Camp? bell, trie former vice-chairman pi the Republican Congressional Committee, th?- ne< und secretary of the committee, and Mr, Campbell vitally Interested be? cause of the program of the BoOse \eitirt- In Kansas, Republican con? gressional candidates ere Involved in nearly Uli the States, and if the Re? publicans hope to elect a Republican lions,, in Noverribor they must g<t the complications cleared up.

Denounces Action In s???? tit Dakota. Senator Gamble, of SOUth Dakota, who also saw President Taft. de? nounced the game In his State as u Steal and told the details. The Re i ii, stute committee! th'i* met I t>. nominal? .lectors, as provided in the law. and to attend to other busi mess. The committee proceeded to nominate straight..'it Roosevelt men us electors, to be placed on the ticket as Republicans, and admits that If theV j t : .? elected In November. although r iiiing- under the name of Republicans, t'.- y will vote for Roosevelt. The Tuft Republicans, it is stated, have the recourse In that State of putting regul?r Republican electors on the t.- Kel by petition, and this Is likely t-. be done. The conference to-day. however, re? lated largelv to the situation In Kan >-,?. where th- tlrst test Of strength between the Roosevelt und Taft men will couie August 5 in the primaries to be held that day. These primaries ?will be for the nomination, ns Repub? licans of a full State ticket, congrcs atoiint candidates State legislature and electors Governor StuhbS and Senator Rrlstow are both out for Roosevelt, and claim that if ih<- Roose? velt electors nre nomltiated In the prl- i paarlet Ihey can and will be put up as Republicans under the heading of Taft ns th-- Republican nominee, but will vote for Roosevelt In the electoral col 1. ;:?

The Taft Republicans hnvt- put up a ticket Of electors nnd I th- Roosevelt people have done the same thing. The Roosevelt people will s kil under the name of Republicans, j the Stuhnx program being not to bring I the new party name into the game, hut permit the whole scheme to be | worked ?ul tinder the pretense of Re? publicans. Tnft vien Have Sa lief.-nsr. if the Roosev.-it electors carry th" primaries and lo. upon the Republican ticket, th.? Taft men. tinder the Kansas laws, will have absolutely no <!?:?; ? They cannot put up another ticket by petition, or otherwise, and would be put In the position > f having to vote for Democratic electors to pn vent [Roosevelt carrying the State ..r re? maining away from the polls nnd let? ting the State go to Roosevelt. The T.ift men hop- to win with their ticket e.f .i.eiors, but they have the full Mate administration and machinery against them, and are dubious as to how matters will turn out. Their one ray of hope is that some 61 the electors nominated hy the Roosevelt people will decllno to be come parties to n plain steal of the . :? toral vote of the S'tate and will an? nounce that If they go upon the Re? publican ticket Ihey will vote for Taft for President In the electoral college. Taft candidates for electors in the primaries nre willing to with? draw if pledges of this kind are made by the Roosevelt men. Penntor Curtis and the Kansas dcle pallon in the House nre preparing to leave for their State to line up for the primary right. W frets CnaB-rraalonnl Candidates. Representative .t. Hampton Mnore. speaking of the complex conditions, raid: "If there are to be separate tickets for electors Republican congressional candidates may suffer In the States affected. We cannot fully compr. - h'ond this situation until the Roose? velt party program la announced. In Pennsylvania wo now have tho assur? ance of th,- Republican State, chair? man, Mr. Wesson, that regularly nnmi r.ated congressional candidates are not to be Interfered with by the third party, but that every effort will be made Ip uphold those Republican nomi? nees whose records upon the tariff are nil right. "Mr \Vass6n has declared against the Democratic national platform, 'which means that Democratic nomi? nees for Congress ate not to expect help front toe Roosevelt or PHnn Re? publicans. The present confusion nrlses from Hi" controversy over elec? tors, and w|j are In a fair way of having that Btralgntoned out.

The several locations suggested by the committe on quartets were dis? cussed yesterday by the board of direc? tors of the Richmond Real Estate Ex? change, but it was decided that no ac? tion Should be taken at this time. At a subsequent meeting of the exchange, the charter was accepted, the by-laws amended so a.-- to conform to it, and several new members elected. Several applications for membership from property owners. buyers and traders were received. The requests were laid on the table for the present as the by-laws provide thai the mem? bership shall consist of agent* only. President K?nsten and others discussed certain plans, by which they hope to make the local organization the most effective in the South. A cimniilp' ?111 lie appointed to visit Othor ex? changes throughout the country recommending the features that may be adaptable to this city and elimi? nating others that nre not considered desirable, In selecting the quarters, the first requisite will be a suitable auction room with space enough to accommo? date the average number of buyers. This, the officers of the exchange be? lieve, will not only tncerase the num? ber of buyers, but will snve time and inconvenience especially When the property to be sod is in a remote part of the city and in bad weather. One feature will be a book contain? ing a survey of the city with the names of all owners of property which w'.ll be kept up to date for the benefit of the members and prospective buyers.

Unless the Portuguese government decides to weaken the garrisons of LU bon and Oporto, which would be a dan gerous measure to take, in view of tne - iliiy of revolutionary outbreaks in the big cities, it seems Ilk. ly that the royalist warfare in the northern provinces Is likely to continue for some time to come. The situation may be compared In some resyects to that which existed on Mexican-American border- ;-.t i e opening of the revolu? tion there. The royalists here retreat to foreign soil In Spain when they are hard pushed by the government troops, I frontier Is very mountainous, It offers many safe retreats to the roy lata, whose roving bands ore thus able to hold in check the superior-forces ..f the government According to last accounts, Captain Henrique de Patvnj Co celro, the royalist leader, has no.vj retired to Spanish territory. The general plan drawn up by the1 royalists for th- Invasion of Portugal; Was as follows: A column of 200 men, headed by Meuti t.ar.t Sepulveda, was to ent-r the country across the River Mir.ho: Captain Couselro. With another 9J0 men. was to cross th" frontier nnd ??liter the province of Trasos-Montes, which Captain Acevedo, wSth 203 men, was to reach from Reha are! Camacho with 250 men from Abmetejo. Every column stlcceeded in entering the pro? vince, nnd with some losses Captains Coucelro and Camacho effected n Junc? tion and fought a battle at the town of Chaves, < rmvds < b.-er patriots). The society of patriots organized n big patriotic parade last evening In tio- streets of Lisbon. Large crowd? fathered on the sidewalks nnd np plttuded the paraders, who stopped and < h< er- d In front of the Relgian leca tion as a mark of approval of the seiz? ure of the steamer Vos at Zeebrugge .'tine 14. The vessel was taking on board arms and ammunition which the Belgian authorities thought were in? tended for tne Portuguese royalists. It is understood that 100 men of the Portuguese crew of this vessel secretly ? htered Portugal recently, nnd imme? diately disappeared In the mountains, where they are commanded by the rebel leaders Acevedo and I.o.bo.

DEBATE IS NEAR 10 FISTICUFFS Fierce Political Argument Creates Furore in House of Representatives. COLLEAGUES ARE AT ODDS Hill and Reilly, of Connecticut. Thresh Out Their DilTcr ences on Floor. Wl shlngton. July 1".?A fierce po? litical debate, which cam* perilously close to fisticuffs, created a furore in the House to-day. 'Ill- participants were Representatives Hill and Rellly. of Connecticut, tho former a Republi? can and the latter a Democrat. Hitter feeling between them, beginning with RelUy's election. Increased last winter, when Mr. Rellly attacked Mr. Hill in a speech In the House. The trouble to-day began when Mr. Hill, without warning, launched Into a political speech, criticizing tuu lauor Views ot uovertior v% oourow Wilson. He r.iiii Mr. Wilson in addressing the Princeton University graduating ciuss ot 18Q3, assailed labor organiza? tions on the ground that they luuiie for "unprofitable servants" by hamper? ing tu, individuality ??: iheli members, Mi. Hill declared mat the re-eleciloh et President Taft was assured, . "Mr. Chairman," shouted Mr. Rellly, 'the gentleman is much more confi? dent ot the election 0( William How? ard Tuit than he was ut a recent met t iug of Connecticut postmasters." Mr. Rellly held aloft a letter, which he said ho had "providentially" received this morning. His Informant, who had I Heard Mr. Hill address the Connecticut postmasters, quoted Mr. Hill as saying that there would bo many familiar facts missing from around the board "if they did not do better work in t::-: next election than they did In tho last," and as admonishing his hearers ; to "take oft their coats and work .openly for the continuation of the ad 1 ministration." Angrily advancing down the aisle. Mr. Rellly declared that Mr. Hill had personally attacked him in that speech. I He quoted from Mr. Hill's alleged I remarks: ' Behold the man you have sent to Washington to represent this district. Do you know what he is doing: He Is voting with the Southern Democrats to destroy the manufacturers of Con? necticut." Mr. Rellly vehemently denied that his vote was east for tariff measures that would Jeopardize th. manufactur. Ing interests of the country. "1 am sick and tired of hearing the g< ntleman from Connecticut." he cried, "tie- know-all of tnriff legislation, compared with whom the distinguish? ed gentleman from New York, Mr. Payne, Is a mere piker. No one knows anything but the gentleman from Connecticut. I sny I am sick and tired of hearing him, under the guise of protecting tne Ainerlcnn working man, getting up here and feeding lliem speeches on tne tariff." Mr. 'Rellly referred to Mr. Hill s speeches on the tariff as "buncombe." Throughout his arraignment Mr. Hill vainly sought to Interrupt. When he got the floor he was trembling with anger. Standing in front of the taker's desk Mr. Hill shook a menacing fist In his colleague's direc? tion, and charged him with having unfairly and knowingly assailed him in a Bpeech last winter. "He did it deliberately/' shouted Mr. Hill. "He might have, known his charges were false if he had wished to have known It. The gentleman from Connecticut suppressed the facts on this floor. I say that statements of that kind, coming from any man. Republican or Democrat, not only are not worth the paper they are written on. but they make the man unworthy <'f any credence whatever, cither now or in the future." The two Connecticut members, with eyes ablaze, were close to each other. A number of members shifted to post tlons nearer the theatre of action. The usslstant sergennts-at-arms also took up positions of vantage. Mr. Hill, however, turned on his heel and sought Iiis s:cat. SOUTH ATLANTIC LEAGUE At Macon: Macon-Savannah. rain.
