Bees of (be light that la to rase about
tilt republican national K'Ommltlee wh-a
it begins consideration of th contest
ca.es In Chicago; Juno C was emphaatxed
today by a statement from Representa
t William 11. McKlnley, head of the
Taft forces,
Mr. McKlnkr declared it waa becoming
pparant that Colonel Booaevdt "and hi
followers will raaort to every known
nieun to terror! m the Chicago conven
tion." .. That too I una haa come when the
mural atamlna ot the leaders ot the re
publican party la to be tested aa It hat
not been alnoe the civil war la certain,
Mr. McKlnley continued. .
"It la within the power of the nation'
-committee to make or break the repub
lican party tor many yeara to come. The
paity la atronc enough to withstand the
hock of any attack within or without,
but no party can survive a compromise
with principle or an abandonment ot all
principle." ;
The McKlnley atatement waa given out
as the remit of widespread reporta that
Colonel Rooaevelt desired the removal
from the national committee of certain
members whom he knew to be strongly
opposed to him. Senator Dixon, the Roose
velt manager, was not in the city today.
but his close associates declared the
Rooeovelt committee gave no approval U
the stories that the national committee
waa controlled against their candidate.
- Mr. MuKlnley'l statement waa followed
byuu other from the Taft bureau In
which It waa asserted that telegrams cir
culated by the Rooaevelt headquarters
tending to shew that the Taft supporters
were considering a compromise candidate
ware without foundation.
. "Ktrst, last and all the time." said this
etstereent. "President Taft la la the pres
ent tight to stsy and his friends will
wlih him until as Is renominated and ra-
ilims in llrt of thev-UsMed snares tor)

tThe statement of Ksutfer McKlnley f
theattitudo of the national oommittee
toward the contest cases which involve
the seats of delegates at Chicago wa
most open and direct
"It must be expected that those na
tional committeemen whose consciences
may force them to disagree with Mr.
Roosevelt wHi be openly denounced by
Mm," said Mr. McKlnley. "and the whol
committee will be misrepresented ana
vtlllfled. oollecUvely and individually, by
Mr. Roosevelt, exactly, as be has ml
represented and denounced those who
have hitherto disagreed with him during
his public career.
The republican national committee it
self made the rules under which delegates
lisvs bee nelected to, the national conv.n
tlon and Its sols duty now is to see ths:
these rules hsve been obeyed to the let
ter. The mere fact that one candidate.
Theodore Rooaevelt, has seen fit to bring
5 per cent ot the 'contests' before that
body does not alter the issue Involved."
It waa reported here tonight that George

Thirteen Tons of
Beef for Transport
Prairie is Rejected
WASHINGTON. May 14.-The Navy de
partment telegraphed the Philadelphia
Navy yard today for a full repor re
garding the rejection ot 3S.W0 pounds ot
beet delivered yesterday by the contractor
for use on the naval transport Prairie.
Only &M out ot a consignment ot 9.e0
pounds were accepted. The Prairie al
ready had S.S0S pounds aboard and so
sailed with M.OM pounds. This undoubt
edly will serve the force ten days. It la
said. If necessary the supply ship Culgoe,'
now at Norfolk, can be rushed with beef
to Goanatanamo. '
It la the first time the Navy department
haa had trouble with meat contractors
attempting to supply a ship under hurried
sailing orders with bad beet with the
Idea It would be compelled to accept It
or go without It is probable that the
meat at Philadelphia, may not have been
really bad. but waa rejected because It
would not keep long enough for use In
the tropics. It the meat waa below con
tract standard It wl'.l have the effect ot
barring the contractor from further bid
ding for navy trade, it was said at the
Navy department today.
