Big Fight of the Convention
Befnre Committee on
Credentials
•m
If Roosvelt’s Opponents, Who Con
trol Committe and Convention,
Seat Anti-Roosevelt Dele
gates Roosevelt Follow
ers Will Bolt.
The Frontier received a special
message a 11 o'clock today, Friday,
which stated that the credentials
committee would not be ready to
report before Saturday morning and
possibly not until Saturday night
and that the convention would
peobably be in session until next
Wednesday.
The committee seated the two
Taft delegates from California and
will probably follow in the footsteps
of the national committee and seat
all the anti-Roosevelt coatesiing
delegates.
Governor Hadley of Missouri and
Hughes of New York are being
groomed as dark horses and either
one of them is liable to be the nom
inee.
The Convention was In seeson only
a few moments Thursday. The great
fight of the convention Is being made
before the eommittee on credentials.
This committee is controlled by the
opponents of Roosevelt and his fol
lowers are insisting that the convent
ion purge Itself of the delegates that
they allege were stolen from Roose
velt in the states of California, Wash
ington and Texas. If these Roosevelt
delegates are not given seats in the
convention the Roosevelt delegates
say they will bolt and nominate Roose
velt at another convention.
Chicago, June 20.—Conflicting re
ports came from the Roosevelt head
quartert today that Colonel Roosevelt
had released his delegates from all
obligations to vote for him. At 11:50
a. m. the colonel issued a statement
which was variously interpreted. It
said:
“The time has come when I feel
that I must make certain statements,
not only to the honestly elected mem
bers of the republican national con
vention, but to the rank and file of
the republican party and the honest
people of the entire nation, I went
into this fight for certain great prin
ciples. At the moment I can only
serve these principles by continuing
to bear the personal responsibility
which their advocasy has brought
me.”
Colonel Roosevelt and Seoator Dlx-1
on conferred after the morning ad
journment of the convention and
when they concluded their discussion
Mr. Roosevelt was rushed through the
crowd at the Congress hotel to his
luncheon room and Senator Dixon an
nounced a conclusion had been reach
ed not to recognize a convention that
was made up of members that had
been seated through the action of the
national committee.
Formei Gov. Regis H. Post, of Porto
Rico, earlier had announced that Colo
nel Roosevelt had released his deleg
rtes but would remain in the race,
and this statement was accepted by a
number of the Raosevelt leaders.
The colonel’s own statement was so
interpreted. O. K. Davis, of the
Roosevelt headquarters, however, said
be was authorized by the colonel to
say the statement as to the release of
delegates was absolutely false.
A further conference of the Roose
velt forces was scheduled for 2 p. m.
today.
Will Not Change Tactics.
After being in conference with Colo
nel Roosevelt for 30 minutes Governor
Hadley, the Roosevelt door leader,
said:
“I will continue In the fight on the
same lines as I have been following in
the convention.” When asked about
a report of a disagreement between
himself and Colonel Roosevelt, he
denied there was any foundation for
It.
Colonel Roosevelt did not wish to
hamper any man by asking him to
join in a bolt when bound by instruc
tions to Roosevelt. No great move
ment can succeed if its followers are
under any restraint.
“Will the Roosevelt delegates leave
the hall?”
“That’s not yet been decided. The
question of whether we sha'll endeavor
to hold a convention in the hall or
leave the building and hold our con
vention separately, will be taken up
at thisafternoou’s meeting.”
Chicago, June 20.—After bolting
from the Credentials committee under
the orders of Col. Roosevelt and being
called back by Roosevelt managers to
the committee, all of the Roosevelt
members of the credentials commit
tee except R. R. McCormick of Chi
cago, left again at 11:45 o’clock last
night, declaring they were "out for
good.”
The cause of the bolt was the re
fusal of the committee to give a full
hearing on all contested cases. After
the Roosevelt men had left,the com
mittee took up the cases, but had not
proceeded far when a motion to ad
journ until 9 o’clock this morning was
proposed and carried.
After the bolt of the Roosevelt
members of the credentials committee,
Roosevelt delegates poured into the
Florentine room of the Congress hotel
where the bolting contingent assembl
ed.
Speeches were made by delegate
Carrington of Maryland advising a
"bolt,” but delegate King of Nebras
ka made a speech urging the bolters
to return to the committee room and
make a minority report to thelconven
tion today.
Then Col. Roosevelt appeared and
began to speak, declaring for inde
pendent action by those supporting
his candidacy.
i Chicago, June 20.—With the split
between the Taft and Roosevelt forces
in the republican national convention
having at last reached the point where
a definite threat to bolt had been
made, many of the panic stricken dele
gates in the city turned desperately
today to the task of stirring up sen
timent for a compromise candidate.
Judge Hughes of the supreme court
and Gov. Hadley of Missouri were the
names under recommendation.
Practically all of the talk of a com
promise candidate comes from the
Roosevelt followers. There was evi
dence early today of a nearly complete
disintegration of the Roosevelt forces.
They appeared to be lighting desper
ately. The colonel’s quarters were
besieged by a mass of his followers
and delegates seeking advice. Th6
conferences of last night had convinc
ed the Roosevelt leaders that com
paratively few of tbeir delegates
would desert the republican party.
"It looks as though the bottom had
dropped out," declared a member of
1 the Roosevelt council today.
