It was a square contest between tht

placed the entire matter in the hands

Senator Cummins' secretary did the
work that was done for him.
Closeness of Convention,
There can be no doubt whatever ol
the closeness of the Btate convention
between the two factions. The con
vention majority is 741. The regulart
claim just 741 for their total vote on
the face of the returns. Mr. Adamt
claims for Taft 774 delegates, or thir
ty-three more than a majority. The
difference lies in Pottawattamie
Franklin, Webster and Dallas coun
ties. There !s a disagreement as tc
conditions In the delegation from Pot
tawattamie, the difference amounting
to about a dozen votes. In Franklin
only three votes are in question. In
Dallas and Webster the situation Is
complicated by the fact that. In these
counties Senator Kenyon and Lleuten

for offices and each side expects then,
to deliver votes In the state conven

recommended at the meeting of the

that they have only fifty more towns

than a score of officers and crew of
the sunken vessel will appear"before

Incident to the suddea close of the
bearing in New York wus tho story of
Harold S. Bride, the second and only
surviving wireless operator of the Ti
tanic. His tale was one of suffering
and death. He told of the final plunge
of the vessel. Us captaln'8 end was
also revealed. He leaped from the
bridge when the waters were closing
over the ship.
Bride told the committee that the
German fhlp Frankfurt responded
promptly to the Tltanlc's distress sig
nals, but that Instead of the Frank
furt rushing to the relief of the Brit
ish ship the German steamer's wire
less operator repeatedly asked what
was the matter. So persistently was
this inquiry pounded Into the ears of
Phillips, the Tltanlc's chief operator,
that he Indignantly replied to the Ger
man, "You are a fool."
Bride testimony also indicated that
the Frankfurt was nearer to the Ti
tanic than the Cnrpathia.
That (he Tltanlc's officers were cog
nizant that tnree mammoth Icebergs
menaced their pathway and that they
were given more than six hours' warn
ing on Sunday afternoon by the Call-
fornlan, was told by Bride. He de
clared that as early as 4:30 o'clock
the Californian called him, with an
"ice report." He said that at the time
he was busy writing a report and that
he Ignored the call. Half an hour
later he heard the Californian call the

He then took it. transcribed it and
gave It to the officer on the Tltanlc's

that the White Star officials knew as

the White Star officials received the
first news that the Titanic had gone
down, the senate Investigating com

That the scene In the dining room

The myrtery which has so far sur
rounded the message which was Mon

ing tho first news of the Tltanlc's
fate was dispelled when Harold S. Cot-
