BARNES BLAMES GRISCOM Republican Leader of Albany Says New York County Chairman Threw a Firebrand Into Committee Meet- Ing When He Proposed Roosevelt's Name for Chairman After Sherman Had Been Nominated. New York, Aug . 25.—William Barnes, Jr., Republican leader of Al- bany and one of the old guard who selected Vice President Sherman for temporary chairman of the state con- vention over the head of Theodore Roosevelt, has given out a statement, in part as follows: “All citizens will rejoice at the statement of Mr. Roosevelt that he will go to the Saratoga convention, if Nassau county will send him, and that there will be no compromise on his part, because the people are entitled to know where the Republican party stands on all public matters. “Differences between the members of a political party should be fought out at political conventions. Then, when the majority opinion has been record- ed, it is the duty of all to support the ticket and the platform. “When Mr. Griscom interjected Mr. Roosevelt’s name as a candidate for the temporary chairmanship, without the members of the state committee knowing where Mr. Roosevelt stood on the issues now before the people in this state and after the vice presi- dent had been placed in nomination before that committee, thereby fore- ing the issue which it was not the in- tention of the committee to create, he simply threw a firebrand in the Re- publican situation entirely unwarrant- ed and for what purpose it is not for me to say. So unwise was his action that President Taft has been called upon to disclaim the absurd charge that he was responsible for the selec- tion of Mr. Sherman. Of course he was not responsible, nor was he con- sulted. ~ “It is, therefore, highly sensible on the part of Mr. Roosevelt, if he hopes to control the policies of the Republic- an party in this state, that he should go to the state convention as a dele- gate and there thrash out what he thinks ought to be the policy of the party with those who have different opinions from him. It is assumed, of course, that he will abide by the deci- sion of that convention, as will those who will oppose him there—if he is successful.” SHERMAN MAY BE DEPOSED Special Meeting of New York Commit- tee Proposed. New York, Aug. 25.—That a special meeting of the Republican state com- mittee will be held to solve the ques- tion of who shall be temporary chair- man and thereby prevent a fight on the floor of the state convention was a report which Lloyd C. Griscom, New York county chairman, would not dis- cuss. Mr. Griscom did not deny that he had received word from several state committeemen, who had voted in committee for Mr. Sherman for temporary chairman, that they were ready to join the so called “progres- sives.” SPEAKS FOR A PROGRESSIVE Roosevelt Opposes Vice President in Latter's Home County. Utica, N. Y., Aug. 25.—Theodore Roosevelt, in his address here, placed himself -directly in opposition to Vice President Sherman. Speaking in the vice president’s own county he warmly endorsed State Sen- ator Frederick Davenport, who is a staunch progressive and whom Mr. Sherman has said he would not sup- port. Senator Davenport supported the di- rect nomination bill in the legislature and has. been a'warm supporter of Governor Hughes’.policies. : Kills. Mad Dog With Bare Hands.

The fact became known here through representatives of the associations concerned. Under an or- der issued by the interstate commerce commission some weeks ago an-in- quiry is now being made-to determine the reasonableness-of the proposed advance in rates. As an incident of the inquiry representatives of the commission will assemble in Chicago on Aug. 29 to take testimony.’ A hear- ing will also be held in New York in due season. The shippers have now at work in the offices of the interstate commerce commission a corps of accountants under the direction of the president of a leading audit company gathering figures furnished by the carriers un- der the law.
