When the conference br-ke up and each mem- ber strolled out, the reporters wore re- | fused information as to what had | taken place, and only a perfunctory Victar retary Rose- of the ssued b water of Nebraska, se Hughes Trip a Failure. Mr. Rosewater said that. after a general discussion of the situation, suggestions for future action had been made and put in writing so that the natianal chairman should know just | [ what particular lines to follow there- | the secrecy thrown about the deliber: it is known that the commlittee made six recommendations for the guidance af the chairman and {he campaign committee. All of these bore upon the main fact that the Hughes trip had admittedly been a failure, and that some positive action | would have to be taken to make up for lost time. It was the consensus of the con- ferees that the trip had been a failure, because it had been made too early in the campaign, and that the visit | to California with the consequent lining up of the republican and pro- gressive forces was particularly unfor- | tunate. It was suggested that if Mr. | Frughes was to make any more trips his speeches should be prepared some time in advance, and more care should be given to just what he was to speak about. Several of the mem- bers thaught it a mistake for Mr, Fughes to ignore entirely the hyphen- | ate vote, but others took the view that this subject could better be left en- | tirely to Colonel Roosevelt. In answer to the charge of misman- agement of the Hughes trip, Chair- man Willcox explained that any failure was due more than anything else to the fact that never before had & republican candidate begun a presi- dential campaign so early; that the mid-summer heat had its effect as | Wwell as the fact that attention in the various states was more centered upon primary fights than upon national cues. The point was made that the | campaign had recached its lowest about two weeks ago; that the slump not go any further, and that were now looking up. The presence in the conference of Frank H. Hitchcock, wha managed the Taft campalgn of 1908, was re- sponsible in a great measure for the decislon to change tactics and put more “ginger” in the campaign, My, Hitchcock hurried out of the conference to &0 to Indianapolis to take part in the notification cere- rucnies of Charles W. Fairbanks. spite | could things campaign unti] ptember 18, when another conference of the advisory committee will be held in that city, Willcox Will Be Guided. One thing decided upon was that the advisory committee should take hold of the entire campaign and do all the planning hereafter. Chairman Willeox is expected to follow its rec- ommendations to the letter. When Mr. Hitchcock was asked what the conference decided upon, he laughed and said: “Well, we had a real pleasant con- ference.” “What did you talk about?” “Politics,” he replied with another laugh, and added that at the morning session, the general situation was dis cussed in detail and in the afternoon the recommendations were formulat- ed. “Just what were those recommend- ations?” he was asked. “I cannot tell you,” was the reply. “Will you take an active part in the campaign?” “Wait and see,” he said. situation?” “Being a newcomer,” said Hitcheoek, with a grin, *“don’t think it would be ill-advised for me to make predictions?" “Won’t you even predict the elec- Mr. | tion of Mr. Hughes?” some one asked. Mr. Hitchcock acted as if he didn't | want to commit himself to thi tent, but after a moment’s hesitation he replied: “The reason we nominated Hughes was because we were sure of electing him. I have seen reason to change that opinion.” Among those who took part in the conference besides Mr. Hitchcock and Chairman Willcox were R. Livingston Beeckman of Rhode Island, Theodore E. Burton of Ohlo, Charles G. Dawes jand Raymond Robins of Illinois, Victor Rosewater of Nebraska, John Wanamaker of Pennsylvania, A. O. Eberhardt of Minnesota and James Wilson of Lowa. At noon the mem- bers of the committee were enter- tained at the Century club by Herbert Parsons, Everett Colby, George W. Perkins, F. W. Estabrook and Alva H. Martin. All Pledged to Secrecy. The first to emerge from the after- noon conference was ex-Secretary Wilson. He admitted the members had decided mot to discuss what had taken place. “T have always been free with news- paper men when I could,” said Mr. Wilson, “but today I cannot say word about the meeting.” “Were any changes in lican natfonal committee discussed he was asked. “Really, you will have to excuse me,” was his response as he headed for the elevator.

Victor Rosewater made this state- ment: “The advisory first meeting today with a very gratifying attendance. All of the members were present except two— | Senator Fulton of Oregon and Wil- liam Ward of New York. The com- mittee went into detailed discussion of the general situation, and especially in our respective sections of the country-. It made suggestions, and after discussing them put them in writing, on which the chairman could act had he not already covered the ground. The committee will meet again in Chicago about September 18.” Hughes’ Speeches a Punch. A mecmber of committee who asked that his name be not used, said later: “It was generall at the conference that everything has not been going just right with the Hughes { trip.

From now on things s going to be different. “Some of the members thought that | Mr. Hughes lacked a punch in his speeches, and that he should have given more attention to the so-called hyphen vote. So far as the east is concerned, that may be true, but we are going to let T. R. supply what is lacking in this yregard, and he can be depended upon to do it. “Out west it is different. In my part of the country the people do not want that. There is a large German population in some of the western states, and we decided it was better to go lightly on German attacks. We are not altogether downcast over the outlook, for there is plenty of time to recover from our mistakes.” One of the matte discu cd the threatened railroad strike. The committee to a man considered that it would have an important bearing on the campaign, and that it would not hurt republican prospects. “We decideq to leave that matter entirely in the hands of President Wilson to develop further,” the way Mr. Rosewater expressed 1t re was was it. its | | which wa also recommended that the sena- torial campaigns in the various states be taken out of the hands of the sen- ate committee and be placed in charge of the national campaign committee. Robins Says Moose Are in Line. Mr. Everhardt before leaving head- quarters said he felt sure that all of the middle northwest region would be safely in the republican column. Mr. Robins told of a strong progres- sive swing to the republican cagdi- date. “Up to the present time,” he said, “the responsible leadership of the progressive party, the men who had real strength with the people and who polled the votes in the day of cur power, without exception, are for Hughes. Take Illinois, for example. We polled over 386,000 votes for Roosevelt in gressive state. progre Today there 1s not a ve of prominence in the state who is not supporting Hughes. In California, Governor Johnson, who won in the last election by 180,000, is for Hughes. Francis J. Heney, who was defeated at the same clection as the progressive candidate for United States senator by 26,000 is for Wil- son. Governor Johnson's victory in vesterday's primary in his state, I understand is now assured, takes California out of the doubtful column and assures it for Hughes. “In New York, Straus, who polled over 300,000 votes as the prcgressive | candidate for governor in 1912, is for Hughes. Bainbridge Colby, who polled only 60,900 vates as a candidate for sepator in 1914, is for Wilson. And so it goes in practically every stat The progressive vote-getters are all for Husgh Of course Hughes is going to win.” H. A. Hopkins of Michigan told Chairman Wilcox that the result of the primaries in his state on Tuesday insures absclute harmony in the re- publican ranks. “JAPS FIRED FIRST.” Peking, China, Aug. 31.—At a se- cret session of parliament today Pre- mier Tuan Chi-Jui, replying to in- quiries about the recent clash be- | tween Chinese and Japanese troops at Chong-Chiatun, in eastern Mongolia, sald the Japanese were the aggress- ors and fired the first shots.

M. For after 1 keeping his a. pool room open and for playing pool for money, Joseph Sinatro, who conducts |a pool room near the corner of Booth jand Myrtle streets, was fined $50 and costs by Judge James T. Meskill in police court this morning, the fine being $25 on each count. Not only was this heavy fine imposed on the pool room proprietor but the judge ordered the court officer to advise Chief of Police Rawlings of the n ture of the establishment that it may be either watched more closely or the license entirely revoked. Officers Michael Massey and Den- nis O'Keefe, with Sergeant William C Hart, raided the place at 1:30 o'clock this morning. Officer Massey told the court the police have been the pool room for some time and last night w not the first time that it was open after the closing hours. When the police entered they found Sinatro, the proprietor, playing a pool game known as “Chicago” with Robert Ruffino for twenty-five cents a game. Ruffino admitted playving for money and said proprietor won each time. Sinatro denied making a practice of keeping open after the closing and said he was just finishing a game with Ruffino, who had urged him to play for money. He said he won but once while Ruffino won twice Boarder Cause of Trouble.
