After the charges and countercharges of bribery uhd corrup tion, the common inference is that where a delegate pledged to one candidate an nounces himself for another, some kind of a consideratlon or deal Is at the bot tom of it, "allhbugh. of course, no actual money payment may be Involved. On- the -face of the figures, the Taft forces have the convention by a small margin, an dthe question is only whether they can' hold their lines, in the mean while, as I have said, the committee is coming In' for more or less criticism. The twelve-hour session of Saturday, reaching far"int6 the nlht. was nerve trying ,wlth a tense feeling, and threat ened outbreaks bf violence at several points.

The toa3tmaster msisted that I respond briefly with a few re marks. Which I did by saying that 1 had come, merely, to pay. my respects to the guest of honor, and not to make a speech, believing that after the strenuous day I had had I ought to be excused. ! "I venture to note, however, that s't- ting here listening to , the addresses hat proved very, quieting and restful. Since coming into the room l have not heard anyone call anyone else a liar or a thief; nor accuse anybody of stuffing a ballot box or Of trying to set up a 'lily white' party. I congratulate you on your good behavior and orderly, procedure." . Incidentally, I aluded to the fact that my . rather, had founded the fokrok Zapadu some forty years. ago as a paper printed in the Bohemian language, whose caption stared at me from the menu card and was represented at the banquet table by its present publisher, Vaclav Bresh. Mr. Bryan on Peck. I had a talk this afternoon with Wil liam J.' Bryan, who . is, here,; having the time of his life. If there Js' anything he enjoys more t$an a ruction in-the demo cratic ranks.

Mr. Bryan's daughter and his son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Hargraves, are also to be spec tators In the convention and Brother 'tCharley" Bryan may look In on us for a little while. I. advert to this simply to show the great interest which our demo cratic friends are taking in what the re publicans are doing, and proof that the action at Baltimore cannot, be safely forecasted until the ticket is nominated at' Chicago.

As he entered the hotel lo oy, elbowing hi way through the crovfi, somebody shouted, "H urrah for Bryan," and the Nebraskan was given a demonstrative welcome. He was cheered for several minutes, and continuous cries of "speech, speech" came from all parts of the lobby.

CHICAGO, June 16.-The "high spot" In the ante-convention situation came yes terday when'Colonel Roosevelt arrived fiom New York, received a welcome almost hysterical from crowds of dele gates and admirers, who cheered him all slong the way from the Lake Shore rail road station to the Congress hotel, and then went Into conference with hie "gen-, era! staff." Mr. Roosevelt's advent upon ths scene of factional conflict had been so widely advertised, and the subject of so much advance comment both friendly and hos tile, that its sensational aspects were, if possible, exaggerated in the minds of all elements. The result was that when tha first excitement had subsided and he had made his brief speech from ths hotel balcony, the crowd came to realise that after all the world was still revolving with Its wonted smoothness; the conven tion was still more than two days dis tant, and the question was still one of who would have the 840 delegates neces sary for a majority and for a nomina tion. ' So matters quieted down to a degree which in the hour betwen 4 and S o'clock seemed hardly possible. Not Candidate for Chair. Mr. Roosevelt last night definitely de clined the suggestion that he stand aa a candidate for the poslt!on(of temporary chairman of the convention. This pro posal hns been discussed more or less during the last few days. It was made to him by Alexander Moore of Pitts burgh.

After the national committee had fin ished Its work, Director McKlnley gave out a table claiming a total pf 830 dele gates fof Taft-fifty mora than necessary for his nomination and' conceding only 44S .to Roosevelt The Roosevelt people defined tojg've ut any figures at all. . The MeKlr'V; table gave Taft eighty three of New York's ninety delegates, but at the' very moment when he was giving it out, the New York delegation was hi caucus-the New Yorkers called It a "conference" and ex-Lieutenant Governor Timothy L. Woodruff was de claring that eighteen delegates ' from Brooklyn would follow hlra into the Roosevelt camp. Later it was reported that the Brooklyn delegates were any thing but willing to accept Mr. Woodruff as a "bell wether" and more than that nobody knew what they would decide to do. Conservative estimates had al lowed Mr. Taft not more than seventy- five votes from New York. Late in the day, after the New York" meeting, i State Chairman William Barnes, Jr., said: ' "The votes of the New yora aeiegation Indicates that the vote will stand: Taft, 7tt; Roosevelt, S; antl-Roosevelt, 3; doubt ful, 2.

Mr. Hugo said his people were opposed to both Taft and Roose velt , Mr. Prendergast based his opposition on the ground that Mr. Barnes is reac tionary and nonprogressive and therefore undesirable as representative of so great a state as New York .on. - a committee which would declare the "-principles on which the republican party mlus appeal to the country for support in thS'o.-yn-ing campaign. , V, Replies were made by Messrs.
