SHO National Committeemen Make Selec tion at Close of Conference in Colorado Springs Chairman Hitchcock's Busy Day. - COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., July 21. The Inter-Mountain Republican confer ence came to a close tonight with a din ner given by Frank H. Hitchcock, chair jnah of the Republican National commit tee, to the mmbers of the National com mittee and state chairmen who have been here for the past three days. Most of the Westerners left for their homes on late trains tonight, or will start early tomor row. Mr. Hitchcock and his immediate party will leave for Chicago tomorrow. Just before final adjournment the mem bers of the National committee in con ference with Mr. Hitchcock voted unani mously to establish main headquarters in Chicago Instead of New York. Quarters will be taken in a downtown office build ing which Hitchcock's force will estab lish there as soon as he can get them together after his return to Chicago. All the work of Taft forces will be, directed from Chicago even to the collection of campaign funds. The conference also adopted the following resolution intro duced by A. M. Stevenson, former Na tional committeeman from Colorado: Tender Hitchcock Tuhnks. . Resolved, That the thanks of Republicans of the States of Kansas. Nebraska, North. Dakota. Kouth Dakota, Wyoming. Colorado, t'tah, Idaho. Nevada, Montana, California, Oregon, Washington Oklahoma and Texas nd the Territories of Now Mexico and Arizona and whose representatives nt this conference are due and are hereby specially tendered to Mr. Frank Hitchcock, chairman of the Republican National Committee, for the great interest he has taken in his party In the West and for the assembling- of this conference. We pledge to our National Chairman our tamest and unanimous support In this cam paign and beg to assure him of the personal esteem and friendship of all those present The time today was fully occupied by the Republican politicians. During the forenoon they ascended Pike's Peak, on a special train. On the trips up and down Mr. Hitchcock conferred with every politician individually. At the summit iohotographs of the party were taken and telegrams were sent to Taft and Sherman. The telegram to the Repub lican standard-bearer was sent by Mr. Hitchcock and read as follows : "Republican leaders fro mevery state west of the Missouri River join with me in sending you greeting from the top of Pike's Peak. We are on top now and expect to be when the returns come In iiext November." Telephone to Sir. Sherman. ' The dispatch to the Republican Vice Presidential candidate was signed by Representative George W. Cook and W. A. Haggott, of this state, and Bird Mc Gulre, of Oklahoma, and was as follows: "Chairman Hitchcock and party send congratulations from Pike's Peak sum mit. Your banner hoisted over the highest telegraph station in the world amid tumultuous cheers." A severe storm, with hail and thunder and lightning, added to the grandeur of the return journey down the mountain. When the party arried at the Antlers, after the excursion, luncheon was sered and the Western leaders resumed their eonfverence at 3 P. M. At the session yesterday stock was taken, but today pluna for the campaign to be made in the various Western states were discussed In detail. Hitchcock Is Reticent. Mr. Hitchcock Insisted that he could rot discuss the plans. He declared that the conferences had been very successful in every way. but particularly through the good-fellowship established among the men who are depended upon to do the real work in the West and the spirit of enthusiasm that has been aroused. AU men who attend the conference re mained here tonight for Mr. Hitchcock's dinner. This was not a banquey, but merely a contlnance of the business ses sions as the discussion of campaign wnet on without interruption. It is asserted by practically all of the men who have attended the meetings here that the question of contributions for election expenses had not been raised at ny tlm. The Westerners said that they have no doubt that money will be found to carry on the campaign that the sub ject would be considered later. Plans a Busy Week. Mr. Hitchcock has a busy programme mapped out for the next week or ten days. He will reach Chicago on Thurs day night and will meet several leaders of the Central states with whom he has already had engagements. He may decide to have a general conference there to be attended by as many of the National Committeemen and state chairman from the Middle West states as can be reached before leaving on the morning of July 27 for Cincinnati to attend the ceremonies of notifying Judge Taft of his nomina tion for President on the Republican ticket. While in Chicago Mr. Hitchcock expects to announce the appointment of a vice-chairman and the executive com mittee of the National Committee. After the notification ceremonies at Cincinnati Mr. Hitchcock will go to New York to open the headquarters there on August 1. Now the Hammocks GO IN A SALE!

Four thousand -Co reans are now being enlisted as auxiliary gendarmes. These men are selected chiefly from the disbanded army. They will be commanded by Japanese officers and are expected to assist materially In putting down the disturbances.

The new Corean gendarmes will be able to distinguish the peaceful villagers from the insurgents. It Is said that the meas ure Is very popular and that the num ber of applicants for admission to the corps is largely in excess of the number required. Ijusitanla Beats a Record.
