When seen by a representative of The Journal yesterday afternoon, Capt T. E. Welles, president of the Pensa cola Interstate Fair Association, was very optimistic as to the outlook for the success of the fair this year. In fact, Captain Welles said the outlook was much brighter than it had ever been before and he was confident that th best fair ever held in Florida would occur at Kupfrlan park this falL , "While we hav not definitely de cided that we will have any racing at the fair this year, I am . already In receipt of a number of letters from horsemen all over the country asking about this matter and expressing a desire td com here this year," said Capt Welles. "Somehow, all of the horsemen who have been to Pensacola are eager to come back," continued Capt. Welles, "although few of them have ever made any money here. However, they have always had a good time and they all want to come back." Speaking of the financial side of the fair, Capt. Welles said things looked bright now and that he believed that the fair would be a success finan cially this year. He said he had no ticed where the fair associations In Montgomery and Nashville had se cured contribution amounting to $18, 000 each.

IN CHICAGO Committee Concludes, Giv ing Taft 235 and Roose velt, 19 Delegates. NIGHT SESSION HELD AT WHICH THE REMAINING CONTESTS WERE DECIDED IN FAVOR OF TAFT, MAKING HIS TOTAL FOR THE DAY 62, AGAINST SIX AWARDED TO HIS OPPONENT.' ' By Associated Press. Chicago, June 15. The Republican committee concluded its hearings on contests tonight involving 254 seats in the' national convention. - The sum to tal of its worjc was Roosevelt 19, Taft 235. Taft today" received 6s delegates and Roosevelt 6. All of Washington's fourteen went to Taft He received 2$ of the 30 x contested in Texas and received the entire contested delega tion of twenty from Virginia, and from the District of Columbia he won two. The committee adjourned shortly after 9 o'clock. CoL Cecil Lyon, national committee man for Texas, was an early arrival at the committee room. He was ac companied by many Roosevelt dele gates from the Lone Star state. Fran cis J. Heney again held a proxy in the committea. The contest of th Texas delegates at large was the first called. Colonel Lyon announced he believed technical ly there was no contest arainst the Roosevelt delegates at large. He said he was of the belief that no printed brief for the Taft delegate had been filed within the prescribed time; that in consequence the rules of the com mittee had not been observed and no formal contest existed for th place of the eight delegates at large. Secretary Hayward said he had "two sets of credentials from Texas." "The chairman can only go on the advice of the secretary." said Chair man Rosewater. "He says a contest exists and it must be called." CoL Lyon said that in the Alaska case yesterday and in other cases, con tests had been excluded because they had not been filed within the stipu lated time. He and Committeeman Capers of South Carolina, insisted that no Texas contest of delegates at large existed. CRISIS PRECIPITATED. " A" crisis aras precipitated when Mr. Mulvane of Kansas, moved to . pass Texas and take Up Virginia, because Texas apparently wa ''not. ready." - "li protest againfct such action," said Lyon. "We are ready." "But you decline to go on. with the first contest" Mid Mulvane. -. "We ' don't recognise - that a contest exists as to the delegates at large," retorted Lyon. Against the protest of Committee man Capers of South Carolina, that "you can't run over us this way," tbe committee voted to take up the Vir ginia contests and to pass the Texas contest temporarily. It was understood that Colonel Lyon and - the Roosevelt members of the committee would raise against the Texas contests virtually the same proi test made In the case of the delegates at large, namely that no contests ex isted because the Taft delegates had not complied with the committee rules. When the Virginia contests were called, another difficulty arose. Only the . Taft delegate at large appeared. The sergeant-at-arms could not find the Roosevelt' delegates. Committeeman Kellogg announced the Roosevelt delegates had under stood they were to be heard after the "Let's take up Washington," said Senator Borah. The Virginia delegation filed out of the room and a call was sent for the Washington contestant. It was announced that the Roosevelt side was not ready. On motion of Committeeman Kellogg the committee voted again to call the Texas casea. The call went out once more for the Texas delegation and the committee began consideration of the contest over the eight delegates at large from that state. ROOSEVELT MEN FIRST. As records of th secretary showed the Roosevelt delegation, headed by Cecil Lyon, had first filed its creden tials, the Taft delegates, headed by H. F. McGregor, appeared as th contest ant a Col. Lyon again declared the Taft delegation had not made a legal con test, because its briefs and arguments had not been filed until yesterday. Frederick C. Bryan, one of the Taft contest attorneys, began the argument "CoL Lyon is the Republican party In Texas," declared Mr. Bryan. "He is the Republican national committee man and runs things absolutely. Th fight In Texas has been largely a fight against Colonel -Lyon and he promises to be both the beginning and the end of the party in the state if he is al lowed to seat bis delegation her this year." Mr. Bryan likened Colonel Lyon's control of Texas Republican politics to the "rotten borough" systems of England. "Under the system maintained by Colonel Lyon," he said, "each county 1 given one vote in the state con vention and an additional vot for each 500 voters in the county. As a result 130 western counties, which cast about S.000 votes, have a voice in the convention wholly disproportionate to that of Dallas, which alone casts that many votes." The real sentiment tn Texas, de clared Mr. Bryan, was for Taft There would have been a large majority for the president throughout the state, he said, and a big majority in the state convention but for Colonel Lyot's "po litical brigandage" and "steam roller" methods, by which "Republicans voters were disfranchised." POLITICAL BRIGANDAGE. Colonel Lyon was charged by Mr. Bryan with "th worst type of political brigandage." Mr. Bryan said Colonel Lyon ap pointed his own county chairman and made up "paper lists' of delegates and credentials from counties where "there were not two Republican votes."

Theodore Roose velt has scores of followers in Chi cago who ar very successful in the use of strong and bitter language against the Taft committeemen, but few can equal and none surpass in this regard Francis J. Heney, of San Francisco. Heney is the man who a few year ago brought terror to the hearts of the San Francisco grafters and sent some of them, including Abe Ruef, to the penitentiary. The name of Abe Ruef will long stand as a synonym for rottenness and' corruption in public life. He was the worst grafter that a city of no torious political grafters has ever seen. Yet here Is Heney, earnestly de claring that the Taft committeemen have committed deeds as foul as any that Ruef was ever guilty of. When Heney first made the ' accusation men gasped for breath. "The proceedings of the national committee In handling the contests be tween Roosevelt and Taft are the most scandalous and disgraceful farce that I've seen in the 32 years I have been in politics," declares Heney, "and Tve watched the toughest politicians in the world in San Francisco. "Abe Ruef in - his palmiest day couldn't have approached them. I have pent men to the penitentiary for doing the same kind of things, only there are no laws that will take car of the present situation in the national com mittee. " - . - "There ar ' parts of th United State where self-government does not exist" simply, because .political- parties have been permitted to operate with out any state law to regulate primary elections."-- - Heney Is a power in Republican politics on the Pacific slope. If the men whom he now denounces should succeed in the Chicago convention, would he support the party's nominee? Would the other Roosevelt men who have joined him in his denunciation? That is the Important question? BAND CONCERT PENSACOLA CONCERT BAND WILL FURNISH MUSIC FROM 3 TO 5 THIS AFTERNOON SPLENDID , PROGRAM FOR OCCASION.

The following is a copy of a letter he has sent to each of the judges, and he has already re ceived several favorable replies: "My Dear Sir: In conversation re cently with on of the circuit judges, it was suggested to me that much good to the state might result if a confer ence could be held in Tallahassee this summer, between the several circuit judge for the purpose of discussing what changes are needed In the laws and agreeing upon recommendations In that connection to be made to the governor.
