HUGHES MEN ARE

FULTON OF OREGON CALLS CRITIC
BY VICTOR ROSEWATER.
Convention Hall, Chicago, June 4.
The. steadying of the Hughes posi
tion with the incoming delegations,
bringing first hand information, has
been the feature of an otherwise un
exciting Sunday. It is plain that the
first ballot showing for Hughes will
not disclose his whole nitiial strength,
because quite a few uninstructed
delegates, who are heart and soul for
Hughes, have complimentary obliga
tions they want to discharge and the
result is likely to indicate a wider
scattering than has been counted on.
Center to Rally On.
The real advantage scored today
comes tbough the arrival of the
out-and-out Hughes delegates giving
a tangible rallying point. This is
particularly true with respect to the
Whitman end of the New York dele
gation, headed by the governor him
self, who is ready to take a leading
part in the organization of the
Hughes forces.
Of course, the other candidate's
quarters have also had occasions, and
the activity has been quickened in
the several Roosevelt camps. I saw
William Loeb, jr., looking over the
rooms engaged for the Roosevelt
committee, and Gifford Pinchot and
Governor Hiram Johnson and other
distinguished bull moosers are here
making themselves busy.
I stopped a moment on the avenue
to talk with Oscar Straus and we
were joined by Dean Lewis of Penn
sylvania and Congressman Gardner
of Massachusetts, who, at mention of
the colonel's name, exclaimed:
"You'd better send for him right
away, the troops can't make any
headway with their general so far
off!"
Whether that is the. correct reason
or not, it seems to describe the situ
ation correctly viewed from that side
of the field.
By tomorrow night the delegates
will be almost to a man on vhe ground
and the curtain rung up for the pre
lude. . Fulton Expresses Views.
Former Senator Charles W. Fulton,
who is a member of the Oregon dele
gation to the convention said:
"Criticism of the part taken by
Frank Hitchcock in reference to the
movement for the nomination for Jus
tice Hughes, are entirely uncalled for
and unjusitified. Mr. Hitchcock like
many other patriotic ncn in other
parts of the country, has been and is
endeavoring to secure the nomination
of a typecal American citizen of posi
tive type, whose standing and record
commend him to the American people
as a whole for the presidency.
"This movement is not confined to
any particular section of the country,
through the efforts of Mr. Hitchcock
and others, has been crystalized and is
now of sufficient magnitude and
cohesion to justify the conclusion that
Justice Hughes will be nominated
very early in the balloting. There is
no jealously among the supporters of
Justice Hushes, and the majority of
ihrin recognize that an attempt is
bring made to pound Justice Hughes
over the shoulders of Mr, Hitchcock."

While a minority of republicans at
the primary instructed the delegates
for Senator Cummins of Iowa, it is
pretty well known that most of the
delegation favor Hughes and w ill vote
for Cummins just as long as they
deem it necessary, but will not con
sider that a minority instruction holds
them t follow instructions into a for
lorn fight. It is understood that when
the break comes that at least 12 will

SAYE ONLY A FEW
HUNDREDS OF OF
SHIP'S THOUSANDS
Great Craft of War Go Down With
Practically AH on Board in
Terrible North Sea
Battle. -
BERLIN AND LONDON DIFFER
Reports Contradict Each Other Con
cerning Result of Fight of
Fleets.
BRITISHERS TAKE HEART AGAIN
London, June 3. The latest reports
from the Rritish fleet, from neutral
vessels which witnessed parts of the
great naval battle in the North Sea
and from survivors, cause the llritish
public to believe the engagement was
not so near a defeat as at first re
ported and in nowise a disaster. The
Rritish losses, with all the craft en
gaged accounted for, were three bat
tle cruisers, three cruisers and eight
destroyers. ,
The German losses are believed to
have been about .the same number of
ships, although of a much less aggrc-,
gate tonnage.
Rritish naval experts maintain that
Great liritain continues to hold the
supreme command of the sea by a
safe margin and that its enormous
navy could better afford the losses it
suffered than could the smaller Ger
man establishment.
British Lose Over 4,000.
The first reports of the heavy loss
of life unhappily have not been re
vised. Gr liritain mourns for more
than 4,0(K) ... its best seamen and the
whole nation is oppressed with sad
ness, which is reflected in the faces of
all the people of London. It is esti
mated in London that the German
losses in men are nearly as great.
There were some 6,000 men on the
ships which sank, and only a few hun
dred have been saved. The horrors
of modern naval warfare, far exceed
ing those when wooden ships fought
and continued to float even when they
ceased to be fighting units, were real
ized to their utmost. From five of the
largest ships which went under with
a complement of more than 4,000 men,
only seven junior officers and a few
seamen were rescued.
Rear Admiral Lost.
Rear Admiral Horace Lambert
Hood, second in command to Vice
Admiral Sir David Beatty, and Cap
tains Sowerby, Cay and Prowz were
lost with many others whose ;iames
are not yet. known, because the gov
ernment has not so far issued any
casualty list. There were no sur
renders, and the ships which went
down carried with them virtually the
whole crews.
Only the Warrior, which was towed
part way from the scene of battle to
a British port, was an exception.
Of some thousand men on the
Queen Mary, only a corporal's guard
is accounted for. The same is true of
the Invincible, while there are no sur
vivors reported from the Indefati
gable, the Defense or the Black
Prince.
It is impossible to visualize any
coherent story of the great battle,
which lasted many hours, with the
different units at times fighting scat
tered engagements.
Reports Disagree.
The British and German reports
contradict each other flatly on the
main fact. The British assert that
the German fleet retired when the
British battleships appeared, while
the German official statement main
tains that the German forces were in
battle with the entire Rritish fleet.
The British assert that they had
only two divisions engaged and that
all the units of these were not able to
parturiate in the fighting, and, fur.
thermore. that Admiral Sir John Jell
coe, commander of the grand fleet,
remained in the area of the- battle
after the Germans bad retreated and
swept it thoroughly in search of
enemy ships ami survivors.
I he king's nirsaie to Admiral
'Jellicoe state that the Germans
robbed the Hrilish .f the opportunity
of gaming a decisive victory imt-fdi
atrly alter the opening of thr general
battle.

CIGAR STORE MAN
SHOTJY HOLDUP
Goldberg Resists Fair and He Is
Now in Hospital With Bullet
Wound.
ONE OF , MEN IS ARRESTED
H. Goldberg, proprietor of the cigar
store at 315 South Seventeenth street,
was shot in the right thigh while re
sisting an attempted holdup in his
store shortly after midnight.
Goldberg, according to his state
ment, was about to close his store
when two men entered, one of whom
ordered him to hold up his hands.
Goldberg grabbed the gun. The gun
was discharged, the bullet burying it
self in the storekeeper's thigh.
As soon as the men found that the
proprietor had been shot they both
fled, one going south to the alley,
the other north to Farnatn street and
thence to Sixteenth street, where he
was captured.
Goldberg dragged himself to the
front door of the store and began
calling for help. Ired Dworak of
the Wellington Inn, heard Goldberg's
cries and came to his rescue. Calling
another man to attend Goldberg,
Dworak ran to the street in pursuit
of the holdup men. He overtook
one and asked him if he had seen any
one running down the street from
the direction of Seventeenth street.
The ntan immediately replied that
he had and stated that the man weut
north on Sixteenth street. Suspicious,
Dworak took hold of him and led him
back to the scene of the holdup.
Goldberg identified the man as the
one that attempted to rob him and
had him placed under arrest. Gold
berg was taken to the hospital where
the bullet was extracted. His injuries
i arc considered serious. The man ar-
I rested i.s Frank Roberts of Kansas

BRITISH DECLARE
GERMAN LOSSES
ARE THE LARGER
tites That Claims of Berlin to
Victory in North Sea Fight (
Are False.
EVIDENCE STILL INCOMPLETE
A.imiralty Says Two Teuton Dread
naughts and Two Battle
ships Lost.
MANY SMALLER CRAFT SUNK
London, June 4. A statement is
sued tonight by the British admiralty,
confirming previous accounts of the
battle between the British and Ger
man fleets, reiterates that the Ger
man accounts of the German losses
are false, and that although the evi
dence is still incomplete, enough is
known to justify stating that the Ger
man losses were greater than the
British, "not merely relatively to the
strength of the two fleets, but abso
lutely." There is the strongest ground for
believing the statement says that the
German loises include two battle
ships, two dreadnaught battle cruisers
of the most powerful type and two of
the latest light cruisers, in addition to
smaller crafe, including a submarine.
London, June 3. There is no great
disparity in losses as it first appeared
in the British and German reports, ac
cording to British admiralty officers,
who claim that latest admiralty re
ports show that two German battle
cruisers went down, while London
announces the receipt of a wireless
dispatch, from Berlin carrying an ad
mission from the German admiralty
that another German battleship, in ad
dition to the l'ommern, was sunk.
. Berlin has issued no further state
ment oPGerman losses, which initi
ally were given as one battleship,
two light cruisers and several de
stroyers. Estimate of Losses.
Revised British reports give the
losses as follows:
British: Three battle cruisers
(Queen Mary, Indefatigable and In
vincible); three armored cruisers (De
fence, Black Prince and Warrior);
about a doaen destroyers and one
submarine.
Germany: Two battleships (West
falen and l'ommern); two battl
cruisers . unnamed; . four light
cruisers (including the Wiesbaden,
Elbing and Frauenlob); six destroyers
and a submarine.
The British i admiralty in addition
has admitted that the battleship Marl
borough was struck by a torpedo, but
declared she was towed safely into
port. It denies the German claim that
the dreadnaught Warspite was sunk,
although conceding that she was dam
aged by gunfire.
Germans Elated.
The Germans are greatly elated at
the outcome of the engagement in
which their main fleet under Admiral
Scheer met the British, whose main
fleet, they assert, also was engaged.
That the Germans held the field after
the battle is shown, they declare, by
the fact that the Germans picked up
survivors of British warships that
went down.
London officially denies that ths
grand fleet was in the action. The
battle cruiser squadron which is re
ported to have rushed between the
Germans and their base, seems to have
borne the brunt of the fight. Eleven
British battleships eventually went
into the battle, it is admitted, but of
these several are declared to have
been only partly engaged.
The British losses in officers vere
extremely heavy, the list including
Rear Admiral Hood, who went down
with his flagship the Invincible; tap-
tain Sowerby of the Indefatigable;
Captain lay of the Invincible, and
Captain 1'rowse of the Queen Mary.
TUr tnl.il Rritish losses are ritimateri
Skt about 5,000.
