KENTUCKY FOR ROOSEVELT Republican Bute Convention Unanimously Endorse President for Second Term. GUBERNATORIAL FIGHT GROWS MIXED Belknap Carries Organisation Vote, Delegates Then Utarapedlng to Bradley, Who Seeks No Office at All. LOUISVILLE, July 15. Spectacular In th. extremo waa the opening session of the Kentucky republican atate convention at the auditorium this afternoon and the situation Is full of possibilities for more pyrotechnics before the final adjournment. The salient features of tho afternoon gathering wer. an Indorsement of Presi dent Roosevelt's candidacy in 1904, which upset the calculations of several shrewd leaders, and what amounted almost to a stamped to former Governor William O. Bradley, after Colonel Belknap had on a test vote for temporary chairman appar ently shown that he could win handa down on the first ballot. The convention was called to order by State Chairman C. M. Barnett, who an nounced the business before the convention to be the nomination of a full state ticket. There are three candidates for governor. Colonel Morris B. Belknap, a Louisville wholesale merchant; Augustus E. Willson of Louisville and Attorney General Clifton J. Pratt, th. only man on the Tavlor ticket In 1809 to secure his office. Chairman Bar nett announced that th. stat. central com mittee would waive its right to arbitrarily nam. th. temporary chairman and called for -nominations. Belknap Wins First Hent. Major William C. Owens was named by th. Belknap forces, while Charles Blartford received a large- part of the combined strength of the Willson and Pratt forces.H Th. result waa a vote of 1,671 to 675 In favor of Owens. This vote, cast fi th. contest for governor, would enable Belknap to win, even should h. lose the contested Louis ville delegation of $49 votes. The committees on credentials, rules and order of business, permanent organizations and resolutions were announced. Ffrmer Governor Bradley then offered the following resolution: Resolved. That We. th rmihtlran nf Kentucky, express our heartfelt approval and admiration of the administration of Theodore Roosevelt, and that we heartily Indorse him for the republican nomination for president in 1904. The resolution was read by Governor Bradley without having first obtained con sent, but It was unanimously adopted by. rising vote. Immediately afterward Mr. Bradlev waa given a tremendous ovation. In response to calls he made an address, in which he appealed for honest elections and honest conventions, and referred Indirectly to the contest over the Louisville delegation by pleading that the delegates nominate, only a man whose methods had been fair and honest and on. who could command united support. , The speech was powerful and hundreds of delegates gathered about him, shouting that he was the man who most nearly re sembled the picture he had himself drawn. If Bradley had been placed In nomination men ha would have received an almost unanimous vote on the assumDtlon that his nomination would wipe out any bitter ness caused by the Louisville contest. Mr. Bradley has been supporting A. E. wniann who is contesting the entire Louisville del egation,, to whom credentials were given by, the men at the head of, the local party machine. : .' . After half an hour of steadily growing excitement the convention was auddaniv adjourned .until I tonight. The report of the committee on credentials was not ready, however, and another adjournment waa taken till tomorrow. The delay In the committee waa , caused by the contest over the Louisville delega tion, th. Willson forces developing unex pected strength. While waiting for news the delegates called Incessantly for Brad ley, showing that the effects of th. out burst of th. afternoon had not been dis sipated. Th. Bradley sentiment, so sud denly but strongly developed, unsettled the calculations of the politicians and silenced predictions as to the outcome. Commis sioner of Internal Revenue Terkes made a speech during the evening, Indicating his preference for Belknap. Former Governor Bradley stated late to night that he was not a candidate for th. governorship of Kentucky. H. was asked If h. was not a prospective candidate and said he was not ALGER ASKS INVESTIGATION Denies War Department Corrnnla Daring His Administration and Threateaa His Aeeusers. DETROIT, July 15.
