elected or to accept them when they ae
Sleeted." He asked the committee f
reopen the contests of the Mississippi
delegates-at-largo, decided yesterday In
favor of the Taft contestants. The com
mittee, however, took no action on th"
suggestion.
For the Taft forces W. J. Latham, a
negro attorney, declares he bad affidavits
denying that no notice was given of con
ventions to elect delegates from the Sec
ond. Fourth, Sixth and Seventh district
The affidavits showed, he said, that a
regular call was Issued for the conven
tions. He denied that the Taft adherrntj
had opposed negro voters or had declined
to have negroes participate in the con
vention. The nations lccmmlttee theh voted la
seat the eight Taft delegates from the
districts under consideration. A chorus
of "noes" came from the Roosevelt sid
but Chairman Victor Rosewater ruled th
motion carried.
Taft Delegates Contestants.
The Fifth Mississippi district contest
was called next. In the Fifth Mississippi
district the Taft delegates were the on
testants. The Taft attorneys announced
they would rest their case on affidavit
and records purporting to show that their
delegates were regularly elected.
A. P. Hill of Beaton, appeared for the
Roosevelt delegates. "The negro voters
and many other Roosevelt supporters
were deliberately ejected from the con
vention which the Taft forces called," he
said. "The Roosevelt men thereupsn went
across tbe street and held another con
vention which was regular in every re
spect." During the discussion Mr. Heney bad
another Interchange with Chairman Rose
water and other members of the commit
tee. '
Replying to a criticism of his method
of examining one of the contestants, Mr.
Heney called across the room to a critic:
"I would like to get you on the witness
stand."
"Mr. Heney will address his remarks
to the chair," said Chairman Rosewater.
"I am Just trying to protect myself,"
said Mr. Heney.
The two delegates from the Fifth Missis
sippi district were seated by the national
committee without a roll call, Roosevelt
adherents voting "no." A request, for roll
call was refused. Senator Borah, aa a
substitute, had moved the seating of the
Roosevelt delesat ons. Only nine members
Joined him in asking for a roll call and
the Roosevelt motion was defeated, viva
voce. !
Missouri Contests Taken Up.
The Missouri contests, taken up next,
were filed by the Taft forces and In
volved ths four votes of the delegates-at-
large and two delegates each from the
Flrat, Third, Fifth, Seventh and Four
teenth districts, fourteen in all.
Governor Hadley's delegation at large
numbered eight, selected by the state
convention to cast a half vote each at
tbe Chicago convention. The Taft dele
gation at large, headed by John C. Black,
Included four members, the number spe
cified by the call for the Chicago con
vention. The case of the delegates-at-large
opened the fight. Grant Gillespie, attor
ney for the contesting Taft delegates,
took up the history of the Missouri state
convention, at which Governor Hadley's
RoOsevcir delegation was selected. The
Taft forces, he-ald,r had controlled -the
state committee by 18 to 14 and had de
elded the contests on ths night before
the convention, , ..
Police took possession of" ths conven
tion hall at sunrise, be said, under orders
of state officers and U7 police and an
equal numberAf militia were in posses
sion of It in the morning of the conven
tion day.
"It was commonly statlu," he said,
"that they were theie to act if the state
committee unseated the Roonevelt dele
gation from Jackson county."
Hartley nnd .Nngel Asiree.
A new committee Including Governor
Hadley and Secretary Nagel, President
Taft's representative, then took up the
contents, he said, and an agreement was
reached to send four Taft and four
Roosevelt men without instructions to
cast Missouri's four votes at large, in '
the Chicago convention. This agreement
was endorsed by the republican state
committee, he said, by a vote of 30 to 2, j
and it was expected it would be followed
In the state convention.
Governor Hadley was made permanent
chairman of the state convention. The
resolutions then offered, he said, made no
reference to Colonel Roosevelt.
At this point, declared Mr. Gillespie.
Chairman Hadley asked the convention
to "indulge" the resolutions committee a
tew minutes while it corrected a "mis
understanding" in the resolutions. The
convention proceeded to elect olght dele
gates and their alternates.
Chairman Hadley left the chair, said
Mr. Gillespie, and went Into the room
where the resolutions committee was
still working. When the committee fin
ally rame in with its report, he said, it
was "5 or 6 o'clock In the morning and
most of the delegates had gone home."
"There were about 200 of the 1,152 dele
gates then present," said Mr. Gillespie.
"It had been generally understood the
convention should proceed peaceably to
the end."
Endorsement of Roosevelt.
The ' redrawn resolutions, explained
Gillespie, referred in complimentary
terms to Colonel Roosevelt, but did not
instruct for him. The resolution to In
struct for Roosevelt was offered from
the floor, he said, when the majority of
the delegates had gone.
"There can be no question about the
agreements having been made as to the
Missouri delegates-at-large," Mr. Gil
lespie asserted.
Mr. Gillespie ssld the Taft forces held
MH uncontested votes and the Roose
velt men 46IH. while more than 100 were
In contests. This situation, he said, had
resulted In the agreement to divide tho
delegation.
Theodore K. Joslyn, holding a proxy In
the committee, asked Mr. Gillespie if th
convention itself had authorised ' the
alleged agreement to divide the delega
tion.
"No," said Gillespie.
"Was it binding on that conventlbn?'
"No, but when tho leaders get togethct
and make such an agreement the boy
usually carry it out."
Mr. Gillespie declared that Governor
Hadley had arbitrarily tried to adjourn
the convention tT 8 o'clock after the
Roosevelt instructions were passed.
I Taft Men Meet in Hotel.
"We then refused to recognlss such a'
tlon and took a recess to meet at tie
Planters hotel at 7:J0 a. m.." said Oil
lespte.
He claimed Governor Hadley had never
"put the motion" to adjourn and that

hall went to the Planters hotel and there I
carried on the convention which elected
the contesting Taft delegates.
"Have you any proof here," asked 8en
ator Borah, "of the terms of this agree
ment made by the committee of eight of
which Governor Hadley and Secretary
Nagel were members?"
Mr. Gillespie said he had nothing bu
the general understanding of what they
had done.
"Do you ' contend," asked Governor
Stubbs, "that eight men could make an
agreement binding 1,100 men?"
"No," replied Gillespie. "I contend thai
the chairman could not arbltra- tly ad
journ the convention."
Pressed by Governor Stubbs, Mr. Gillcy
pie admitted ths Roosevelt forces had a
majority., of the : state convention when
the Hadley delegates were elected and
that each of the delegates had receive'!
a good majority of votes.
i"But we claim that there were 123
Roosevelt men in the conventlpn who nari
no legal right there," he said, "and who
had been seated by the agreement for
harmony."
"Then it all oomes back to this previous
agreement." declared "Governor Stu'jen.
"If the delegates were In' honor bound
to "support this agreement as to the
division of the delegates," asked Mr.
Joslyn, "did you violate that agreement
when you elected your four new dele
gates?" Mr. Gillespie said the Roosevelt forces
had first broken the agreement when
they Instructed the eight delegates for
Roosevelt. The Taft forces then pro
ceeded at the Planters hotel, he said, to
reconsldpr that election and choose new
delegates.
Hartley speaks for Defense.
Governor Hadley, when he began the
defense" of the Roosevelt delegations'
right to seats In the national convention,
delared Missouri, the "mysterious stran
ger" In the list of republican states was
entitled to especial consideration from
the national committee.
Upon your decision ef the Issues here
depends whether there shall remain in
Missouri a republican party," said Gov
ernor Hadley.
Governor Hadley declared "paper con
tests" had been instituted by the Taft
forces, in all effort to control the state
convention. He said the state committee
had decided all but eight county contests,
and that these had been referred to a
committee of six with Secretary Nagel
and himself aa "advisers."
"They importuned us to make some
agreement there to divide the state dele
gation," continued Governor Hadley. "I
declined absolutely to consider any such
matter. I told them that the state con
ventlon was the only body that could
settle any such questions."
He declared the subcommittee had ap
proved the seating of the contested
Kansas City and St. Joseph delegations,
not as part of agreement, but becauae
the contests, were regarded as "frivolous,
"They fully recognised that this would
make a 'Rooeevent convention,' " Jie
said.
"A more complete fabrication has never
been presented to you," said Governor
Hadley, "than the statement that there
waa no official adjournment of that con
vention.
"This proposition, that there had been
no adjournment was never thought of."
declared the'governor, "until weeks after
wards. President Taft's own managera
did not sanction such action.
"Where was Charles Nagel, where
was Mayor Krelsman. where waa Otto
Stelfel? All of thera were silent, or ad
vised against this action."
Committee Is T'nanlmoas.
Representative Bartholdt, hold ng Secre
tary Nfcgel's proxy asked Governor Had
ley if he knew that a proposition had
been made to divide the delegation, "giv
ing five to Roosevelt and three to Taft."
"No, I do not know of such a propo
sition." answered Governor Hadley.
'That was the proposal that came ti
us," said Mr. Bartholdt.
On the conclusion bt the presentation
of the case, the national committee "OJ
unanimous vou. and without a roll ca.l,
declared the Roosevelt delegates-at-large
entitled to seats in the convention. The
delegation of eight wat divided, four
being given regular recognition and tho
other four being named as delegates. Th
committee spent.no time in debate of Its
decision, but awarded the deletate-at-

The First Missouri district contest then
was taken up, but was delayed, the com
mittee taking a recess.
Committeeman Mulvane of Kansas an
nounced he had been Informed "some
compromise might be agreed upon aa to
the Flrat, Third, Fifth, Seventh and Four
teenth Missouri districts." He secured a
ten-minute recess while opposing attor
neys consulted.
Despite this announcement, however.
the hearing on the First district contest
proceeded.
Henry L. Eads, representing the Tft
contestants, spoke first. Ha asserted
that at some of the county convention
which selected delegates to the district
convention at Macon on April s the Taft
deiegatea were not recognised, but were
supplanted on the credentials commutes
by Roosevelt men, who held proxies "not
legally obtained."
Charles B. Rendlen. who headed tha
Roosevelt delegation, argued tha First
district case for his side.
Bartholdt Announces Compromise.
Chairman Rosewater was about to put
a motion to seat the Roosevelt delegates
In the First district when Mr. Bartholdt
asked permission to make a statement.
"Before the First Missouri district la
acted upon," he said, "I wish to announce
that a 'gentlemen's agreement' has been
entered into as to ail th Missouri dis
trict contests."
He then moved that the Roosevelt dele
gates in the First and Fifth districts and
the Taft delegates in the Third, Seventh
and Fourteenth districts be placed on
ths temporary roll. Tbe motion was car
ried unanimously-
