CHICAGO, June 19. Some of the friend of Mr. Roosevelt were not so certain that fthe colonel would not have some other f clan In his mind which mlKht unset things. That the colonel has taken abso lute, dominating command of the situa tion seems a certainty. He issued orders like an 'officer in the field, and today had. messengers rushing about with mes sages for .the Roosevelt leaders, who came in haste, to his quarters. - "The colonel is absolute boss," said one of the Roosevelt lieutenants this morn lng- "We know of no change in the cam paign plans up to date, but he can change them at any moment." That-Roosevelt will order a withdrawal of his delegates from the convention if the credentials committee fails to unseat the protested eighty delegates Included in the appeal submitted by Governor Had ley was the most discussed proposition around headquarters Just before the con vention opened for the second day.- On every hand it was agreed that this de velopment was certain to follow approval of the- national committee's action. It was also expressed as another certainty that Roosevelt could not take fromth convention some of bis pledged delegates Roosevelt's chief lieutenants, including Governors Hadley , and Deneen. served notice today that they will not .sanction a bolt under any circumstances.

"We are going right ahead fighting every inch of the ground" said Governor Had ley. "It is the present intention to re new immediately today our demand Jthat the convention be purged of the fraudu lent delegates until the credentials com mittee can act.

Brief of the Proceedings of the Republican Convention's Second Day . . ; E.LIHU ROOT, chairman pro tem pore of the republican national convention, met with difficulty in call ing the delegates to order Wednesday morning, and had to call on the police to aid in the securing of order. Half an hour was "consumed, and it was 11:30 when prayer was said. The unfinished business of the con vention, Governor Hadley's resolution to "purge" the roll call of ninety-two names of delegates seated by the na tional committee as the result of con test hearings, and to seat in their steady ninety-two Roosevelt delegates, was taken up at once, the debate being opened by Governor Hadley. In sup port of his resolution Governor Had ley presented the protest signed by the fourteen Roosevelt members of the national committee, and quoted nel Koosevelt's criticism of the com mittee in his speech on Monday night. Rosewatefs Rulings Stand Up Chairman Root Follows Them by VoteNote from Roosevelt Leader Expresses Gratitude for Courtesy, Received. By VICTOR ROSE WATER. Editor of The Be and Chairman of the Republican National Convention. CHICAGO, June lft-(Sreclal Teleerami The second day of the big convention, liket he first, has been devoted entirely to clearing the decks for action. . So much time has been consumed in this that my suggestion of yesterday that the convention will reach over Into Saturday may now be put down as an almost safe prediction. Today, as yesterday, there was only one test vote, as between the rival forces, and it showed up even better for the Taft people than before. Governor Hadley again presented .the ,. resolution which I had ruled out of order prior to the election of a temporary chairman, and It was allowed to come up for de bate, being, properly presented at this tlme,-but voted own tna motion to-' a.hl. . . . t - The debate, however, gave the' convene tlon a chance to .learn that there are two sides to every on of the contests on which the national committee divided, and that the decision. of the committee as to .which delegate's, name should be put on the temporary roll was not necea sarily arbitrary or fraudulent as . the Roosevelt people had been claiming, but. quite to the . contrary, might well chal lenge the Judgment of fair-minded men. The vote tabling the Hadley resolution simply means that the regular order that has prevailed In previous conventions of sending contests to the credentials com mittee, made up in the usual way of one representative to each sitting delega tion, will be lollowed with the title to questioned seats determined by accept ance or rejection of minority or majority reports. The Roosevelt people tried their fav orite game of spectacularism today, but they did not accomplish anything by It From where I was sitting it could be plainly seen that the whole affair was pre-arranged and pulled off under per sonal supervision of Senator Dixon, the Roosevelt campaign manager, who de ployed the actors and actresses and gave them their cues, it certainly produced a tremendous bedlam of noise and confusion which at last wore itself out, and when the vote was tallied notwithstanding the fact- that Wisconsin went back on 1U agreement to divide half and half, the TAFT TOS. COMMITTEE Test Vote in Credentials Body Thirty to Eighteen. DEVINE IS ELECTED CHAIRMAN Decision on Majority of Contest Cases Planned to Be Made Dur ' tag- the Night According to Taft Members. ., CHICAGO,. June U.-In a test of strength at the organization of the cre dentials committee, after the adjourn ment of the convention, the Taft forces elected Thomas H. Devlne chairman over the Roosevelt candidate, W.'T. Lauder of North Dakota, by a vote of 30 to 18, four members being absent or not voting. Massachusetts had no representative on the committee, because of the deadlock In their late delegation. The Taft forces expected to vote .on the majority of the contest cases tonight to be 23 to 19, baa ing their prediction on the attitude of the respective delegations on the conven tion roll calls of the last two days. Immediately after the election of Mr. Devlne, a recess was taken until 9:30 o'clock to night f ' . Jack Oudahy and Wife Remarried KANSAS CITY, June 1. John P. Ctid aby, the packer, and Edna C. Cudahy, who divorced him several months ago, secured a license . here today and were remarried. The governor also pleaded for order in the proceedings. Delegate Dovell of Washington fol lowed Governor Hadley, arguing in opposition to the resolution. Other delegates followed, and many ej-jj speeches were made on either ' i tie i nterchange of . personali ty La f re quent, and at one timr B between members oftv-u' ; delegation seemed imChi !iie was passed, and Mayor Shank o Indianapolis, de clared his willingness to "scrap" with Delegate Record at any time. The three hours that had. been by agreement allotted to debate was greatly exceeded, and at 3:30 a confer ence between Hadley and .Watson, the floor leaders for the Roosevelt and Taft factions,.was held on the propo sition that the matter be referred to the committee on credentials without further argument. At this time the convention was in the utmost disorder. Colo and Convention Bears Them Out rough-ridera were further behind by six votes than they were the day before. Incidentally I was gratified to note that Senator Root repeated and reinforced two o fthe rulings I had made while in the chair on parlalmentary points of order. He enforced the requirement that where a delegate Is absent the name 0 fthe alternate shall b called, which ap pears opposite that of the principal on the credentials as filled. This is the point which raised such an outcry from VBoss" Flinn and his 4)unch when I ' in sisted on the same thing. Chairman Root likewise ruled that every delegate, on the temporary roll had all the rlehts ot an other delegate, even; though, a contest been- made- against ftlm.' - , Vindicating the calling r the full roll which I had ordered, and on which -the Vote on temporary chairman was taken, In my mall this morning I received this note "from Prof. Albert Bushnen Hart, who Is one of the Roosevelt leaders and delegate-at-large from Massachusetts: "CHICAGO, June IS, 1912,-Dear Mr. Rose water: I want to express my sense of your courtesy in facilitating my few remarks today. And in general, I think the feeling of the convention, both sides, was that you presided with sonspicuous dignity, good temper and fairness. "My colleagues are shaken from their belief that the chairman of the national committee is an escaped convict with a concealed ball and chain; but I don't believe that your people understand our feeling of rage and deprecation? especially over Washington and California, But I can't find a sense of antagonism toward you personally, and some day I hope I shall have a chance to understand your point of view; Just now well, we are friends anyhow. Yours cordially, "ALBERT BUSHNELL HART." To this I am replying that I appreciate his testimonial to my fairness in the chair equally with the unanimous vote of the committee at the conclusion of the sessions, over which I had presided through many trying ordeals for nearly two weeks. This letter of Professor Hart's 1 am willing to put beside the fire In the rear resolutions of the illustrious Neb raska delegation. CUBAN INSURGENTS ACTIVE Buildings of American Company Are Burned Down. MARINE DETACHMENT CALLED ' Blue Jackets to Reinforce the Gar rison at , Firmeaa and Pro tect , the Valnaftrfe Property, SANTIAGO, Cuba, June 19. The build ings of the Ponupo Manganez company, an American oncern, situated near La Maya, about seven miles from Santiago, were burned by Cuban' insurgents at noon yesterday. , A detachment of forty marines under command of Captain Alexander S. Wil liams, United States Marine corps, ar rived here today on a special train from Guantanamo to reinforce the garrison at the Firmest mines and to protect the property of the Jaragua Iron company. As a result of the latest amensty pro clamation issued by General Monteagudo, commander-in-chief of .the government forces, about 300 insurgents came in to day and surrendered to the military authorities. Of this number, however, not one brought Jn any weapon. This fact causes great confidence among the whites, who regard It as an indication that the insurreetos troops have not diminished. Thirty-One Rebels : Killed Near Tepic MAZATLAN, Max.. June 19. In a brisk engagement at Santa, Maria Del Oro near Tepic a federal force of ISO defeated 400 Canedlstaa on the night of June 11 Thirty two rebels and one federal were killed. The federals captured many prisoners. Delegations had abandoned their quar ters, and processions were marching about the hall, shouting and singing. Governor Deneen offered a motion to the effect that no delegate whose seat is contested be allowed to vote on the Hadley resolution. Watson of Indiana moved that the Deneen motion lie on the table; on roll call the motion to table prevailed by 564 to 510. Watson then moved that the Hadley resolution be referred to the committee on cre dentials, which carried without debate. Chairman Root rules that no dele gate will be allowed to vote on his own -case v v The convention took a recess until noon Thursday. Colonel Roosevelt's ultimatum, which was made public in the morning, . to the effect that he would ask his fol lowers to leave the convention, was heard with great surprise. It was im mediately answered by a number, SECOND DAY OF THE CONVENTION Coliseum Quickly Filled by Dele gates and Spectators After the 1 Doors Are Opened. WATSON'S MOTION AGREED . TO Proposition to Submit the Contested Heats to Credentials Committee Carries After Three Hears Straggle on the Floor, CONVENTION HALL, CHICAGO, June 19. The Coliseum was a sea of empty chairs at 9:30 o'clock when the band, in Its perch near the roof, struck the open ing not "qf the morning concert. A file ot policemen came in through ' a side door, stepping briskly to march time. Tht blue-coated guardians took . their places acr6s the front of the hall where. the Una held pack surging crowds yesterday, and delegates and spectators began to tUterTiji through: the doors. ' , i ; - Before 4'6)ock W&bajrh avenue doora of the convention, hall were besieged by telegraph operators, messenger boys and newspaper employes, who .were denied access. The tickets issued for, Tuesday's session were rejected by the doorkeep ers, and for a time It appeared that tele graph wires .would lie idle in the base ment Sergeant-at-Arms Stone, finally produced 300 forgotten badges from his safe and these, were distributed .in .the crowd outside the annex door., , ,, There was a rush for them, and it re quired the assistance of policemen, to see that, only 'authorized employes , secured the coveted passes. , , ; ,' , , The air of nervousness that hung over the convention police and employes be fore the opening of the session yester day was curiously absent today. Nobody knew then what to expect; to day the patrolmen chattered and laughed, secure in the belief that they could han dle easily any situation that might de velop. Lark of Excitement. In the box reserved for special guests there were several early arrivals. At 10 o'clock, ah hour before the time for opening the session, less than 200 spec tators were In the hall and but eight ot the delegates. Although the convention faced the real struggle of the Roosevelt leaders to ob tain control of, the permanent roll of delegates, there was a noticeable lack of excitement or enthusiasm about the con vention ball. Jamea D. Preston, In charge of. the press section in the convention hall, came In with a big bundle of mall In his hand. "The Coliseum postmaster wanted me to help him get out the newspaper men's mall." he said. "It's all for one reporter, William Jennings Bryan." Senator Moses E. Clapp of Minnesota, one f the Roosevelt delegates-at-large, from that state, was an early arrival at his place on the convention floor. ' Spectators' seats oh the floor and m the gallery were not half filled when Chairman Root appeared at his desk at 10:54 o'clock. When California's delegation appeared it again bore the banners which ware (Continued on Sixth Page.) Doorkeepers Who ' Accepted Money Fired CHICAGO, June W.-In spite of the pre cautions taken by the commltee on ar rangements and the police to prevent any but those - holding regular tickets from gaining admissions to the Coliseum, It was reported last night , that scores had been passed by the doorkeepers, either for a money consideration, for friendship's sake or on a ticket resem bling the regular one but not genuine. Chief Doorkeeper John Hanson relieved several of his aids after taking their badges from them and causing two al dermen to be rejected from the building. In each case the men had been found "accepting entrance fees." The tick ets accepted at the door, but which were said to be counterfeit were the same as the regular tickets only they did not in dicate the entrance, section row and seat number. The tickets are said to bave been distributed in national committee envelopea bearing the words "Admission only." Many joke tickets were also presented.

CHICAGO, June 19.-The second day of the fifteenth republican national con vention opened with ten hours of stub born fighting ahead and the outcome of the contest for the presidential nomina tion no nearer the eye than it was yes terday. Four major , possibilities loomed large in the far ground. These were the nomination of Colonel Boosevelt, nomina tion of a third candidate and the possi bility of a seoond or double convention. Scores of men could be found In the convention crowds who would back any one of these possibilities with hard cash. Taft, Roosevelt and third candidate partisans each claimed the strategic advantage aa a result of yesterday's elec tion of United States Senator. Root of New York as temporary chairman of the convention. It was a wonderful opportunity for the political prophets who wandered in this mace of chance in a condition of acute statistical Intoxication. The vote of 668 to 602, by which Senator . Root was chosen temporary chairman over Gov ernor McGovern of Wisconsin, was con strued in so many ways by those armed with pad and pencil that the average mind became confused and finally re jected all the forecasts. Hadley Renews Plant. But one thing ' seemed sure and cer tain as the time for the re-assembling of the delegates at U o'clock apiroaihtd. And that was that Governor H. P.
