Omne Family Honse For Sale Ensy Terms, on ‘convention | Republican Le;ders at Sea On Nomination of Candidate Numerous Conferences Held Last Night Failed to Bring About Agreement on Any One Man—“Favor- ite Son” Managers Active. Chicago, June 3.—The problem to which candidate publican national convention seemed as far as ever from solution last night. Numerous so far as could be learned. While on the surface the fight ap- peared to be between Roosevelt and Hughes against the field, there was a the headquarters of the various “favorite the Root, Weeks, Burton, Fairbanks and | zate marked increase in activity at son” candidates. Managers of Sherman booms insisted that their candidates would remain in the fight They declared, after tabulating the vote claimed for Roose- o | knaw until the end. velt, that the successful would either be one of the sons” or a dark horse. The plan of the old candidat effort, to give Burton, banks and convention Weeks, Sherman a try-out in in the order named. dark horse, according to reports ing of Ohio and Gov. McCall of Ma sachusetts were mentioned as horse possibilities. Hughes and Roosevelt Clal Friends of Roosevelt win after the the claim he will formalities favorite son candidates a com- plimentary vote has been disposed of while Hughes supporters their candidate would be early in the proceedings. Statement. A suggestion was declared nominated Perkins’ made in an effort to decide on a candidate who would be acceptable to both sides, but George W. Perkins, chairman of the executive committee of the pro- gressive party, said he had not heard of the plan. n our statement in January we made the first advance in the interest of harmony and we think it is up to the republicans to make the next move.” Mr. said. “Of course we are for Roos velt, and we think we have unanswe able arguments why he should be named by the republicans. We are Perkins willing to confer with the republicans | on the question, and if they will not | accept him and suggest another man | we are ‘willing to talk about it. We do | not know what the republicans will do at their convention, but we do know that the people want to vote for Roosevelt for president next November.” Mr. Perkins denied that he or the progressive party’s executive com- mittee are paying the expenses of the delegates to the progressive national convention. “Every delegate to our is paying his own ex- penses,” he said. “I want to make that clear. When I was here last winter I resreved a lot of rooms in Chicago hotels for the use of our delegates, but these options have since been turned over to the indi- vidual delegates, who are paying all their own railroad fares, hotel charges and other expenses. Four years ago our national convention paid for it- self, and we expect to do the same this year. We have already sold enough boxes to pay the rent of the hall.” Fairbanks Man Calls on Perkins, Joseph B. Kealing, one of Fair- bank’s managers, called on Mr. Per- kins during the day, but both denied that they talked politics. Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio, temporary chairman of the republi- can convention, may be the permanent chairman of the gathering, according to a plan by party leaders yesterday. Senator Sutherland of Utah is the only other name men- tioned for the place thus far. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Ma is said to be slated for chairman of the committee on resolutions, which will draft the party platform. discussed Roosevelt and Preparcdness Parade. Meyer, in charge of republican statement denying that s attempt will be made to use the Chicaga preparedness parade today ir the interest of Roosevelt. The atement reads in part: “The electric flash signs which the committee has been using will play on Saturday evening, slogans urging preparedness and will contain no mention of Colonel Roos velt's name. In carrying aut thi order Chairman Meyer following instructions from Colonel Roosevelt.” Penrose Talks With Crane, United States Senator Penrose af Pennsylvania was among the promi- nent arrivals of the day, an@ his quarters were soon the meeting place «of prominent Tepublicans from dif- ferent parts of the country, Among those who conferred with the Penn- svlvania senator were former Senator W. Murray Crane of Massachusetts, former Senator Hemingway of In- c¢iana, who is supporting Falrbanks for president; Willlam L. Ward of New York, who is backing FElihu Root for the presidential nomination: John T. King, a delegate-at-largo from Connecticut, and Alexander P. Moore of Pennsylvania, a Roosevelt supporter.

In Pennsylvania fought out a straight, open fight and the people there decided to send a large uninstructed delegation.” The Pennsylvania delegation of 76 will be split amang at least four can- didates, the senator said, Philander C. Knox, he added, would receive the votes of the greater number of dele- in that state. &overnor Brum- - | taug, he said, would get about 2 votes, about five delegates wauld vote for Roosevelt and some for Hughes. s for himself, he said, he did not whom he would vote for on the first ballot, but he thought it prob- i ably would be Knox. Knox, however, the Pennsylvanian further said, is not a candidate for the presidential nomi- nation, An informal poll of a number of the states which have candidates in- dicates that after the first few bal- lots have been taken and the “favor- ite sons” begin to drop out of the contest that many of the instructed delegates will go to Roosevelt or Hughes as their second choice. Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, who arrived terday, said “Three-quarters of the 76 gates from Pennsylvania are unin- structed. We are going to do what in our judgment is best for the inter- est of the republican party at this time. We have no prefernce at this | stage of the proceedings. The claim made by friends of Governor Brum- baugh that they will have half of the Pennsylvania delegation is untrue.” Henry G. Wasson, national commit- teeman from Pennsylvania and one ol the leaders of the Brumbaugh faction, yesterday expressed the | cpinion that Roosevelt is the second choice of about 60 or the 76 delegates fram this state. He claims 41 votes for Brumbaugh on the first ballot. No Effort to Force Roosevelt, W. McGrath, private Calonel Roosevelt, atement: “So far as I know no will be made by Roosevelt's friends to force him upon the repub- lican convention.” While there will ganization to work the republican presidential nomina- tion, it is said the active direction of the campaign will be undertaken by Governor Whitman of New York, Senator Smoot of Utah, Frank H Hitchcock of New York Lorah of Tdaho.

Mr. Kohlsaat identified the signa- ture of Mr. Eno on several wil made on dates in 1895, 1900 and 1902, in which Columbia University was not mentioned and which left practically all of his estate to members of the decedent’s family. One of the wills left $50,000 to the late Miss Rena Davis, daughter of Jefferson Davi Numerous letters were introduced by counsel for the contestants, writ- ten by Mr. Eno to his office manager, Mr. Barnum. The last one was writ- ten in the month he died, and almost all referred to husiness matters and one of the executors of his last will, who is charged with using undue fluence on the testator in procuring the instrument which the heirs are to break. One letter told of inclosing a check. This check was produced and showed that Mr. no had signed it twice. Eno a Jovial, Jolly Man.
