Chicago, June 12.—The Taft ma- jority on the national Republican committee yesterday credited the four delegates at large from Kentucky and the six delegates from the First, Second, Fourth and Sesventh districts to Taft. In the case of the dele- gates at large there was a hitter fight, the Roosevelt men charging that the delegates had been deliber- ately stolen from Roosevelt as the result of a conspiracy on the part of the Taft men. Qn this contest the yote stood 38 to 11. Kentugky Cases Called. The case of Kentucky's four con- tested delegates-at-large was the firsg called. The Kentucky Roosevelt contest- ants for the places cf delegates-at- large were anly twe in number. al- though the state is entitled to four seats at layge in the national con- vention, The Taft faction had named & complete set of delegates but the names of E, C, O'Rear and Leslie Combs were all that appeared on the roll as Roosevelt contestants. Within three hours after he ar- rived in Chicago, William Barnes, Jr., chairman of the Republican state committee of New York, had been precipitated into the center of the stage. He had been commissioned by the Taft forces to defeat Roosevelt. That is his only task and he can use any method that he desires to attain that result, even though the ultimate outcome should be the abandonment of President Taft as a candidate for renomination. Barnes is only a re- cent Taft advocate. Until Roosevelt loomed as an active -candidate, Rarnes fayored the turning down of the president for the romination as he insisted that he would not prove the strongest candidate. But now Barnes is for Taft and will be for him as long as there is a chance of nom- inating him and the Taft men were eertain today that ther would con- tral the copvention, nominate the president and dictate its platform. Yesterday Barnes devoted all his energies to forming a concrete anti- Roosevelt organization which wil} be effective as a weapon of defense as well as offense. He conferred se- cretly with all members of the Taft steering committee, although he care- fully kept away from the McKinley headquarters in the early part of the day.

GREETED WITH LAUGHTER. St. Paul, June 21.—Pecals of laugh- ter greeted the reading of the special messagé’ef Governor Eberhart to the state senate yesterday afternoon. The scene was without parallel in the his- tory of the state. Not a word was spoken when the reading was fin- ished. No one applauded. The sen- ate just laughed. 5 The governor’s pretext for the mes- sage was the resolution offered last week by Senator 0. A. Lende of Can- requesting the governor to send in his -list of recess appointments for confirmation. As these appointments include the name of J. W. Nash of Minneapolis, surveyor general of logs and lumber, whom the senate failed to confirm at the regular ses- sion, the Lende resolution pressaged a clash, Senator Lende has not moved the adoption of the resolution, but says he will do so tomorrow. ~ The message says that the resolu- tion is simply an effort to occupy val- uable time of the senate in useless controversies over political patron- agé rather than consideration of the constitutional rights of the people. It says that the movement to dasfeat reapportionment there is a repudia- |tion of the express pledges made to the people. It:was suggested yesterday that a state meeting of progressive Republi- cans be held at once in order to pick an opponent to Eberhart that will get the united support of that ele- ment of the party, as it looks now as though the force of the opposition would be wasted. by, not yet acted on by the senate, | TEN CENTS PER WEEK.
