DELEGATES CLASH
1Y ISSUES
East Pitted Against West in
Grocers' Convention Lead
ing to Stormy Scenes.
NUMEROUS QUESTIONS UP
Series of Resolutions Given Consid
eration, Affecting Trade and Re
lation Between Wholesale
and Retail Dealers.
Stormy scenes, frayed tempers and a
split-up In the convention are worrying-
the officers of the National Asso
ciation of Retail Grocers, which held its
third day's session yesterday. On sec
tional lines. East and West, the as
sociation has divided. The Easterners
are called stubborn by the Westerners
and neither is willing to concede an
Inch in the fight for supremacy of the
convention.
As a matter of fact, the division is
about even. With all the delegates it
can throw on the floor, the Pacific
Coast Association is thought to have
a little the advantage. But Ohio alone
votes 53 delegates solid and the sight
of these men standing together with
followers scattered throughout the hall
makes a showing of great strength
when the Easterners vote together.
After a stormy session J. R. New
berry, president of the Pacific Coast
Association, proposed that J. K. Merry
man, of Chicago, attorney for the N.
K. Fairbanks Company, be permitted to
attend the conference and speak after
the morning recess. Many objections
were made. Mr. Newberry said if the
convention wished the manufacturers
to support the retail men in their fight
for "fixed prices," they must be pre
pared to allow the manufacturer to
make a statement. On a close vote Mr.
Merryman was permitted the floor.
Fixed Prices on Coast.
Mr. Merryman told with some pains
the efforts his company was taking
on the Pacific Coast where he said it
had established fixed prices. He told
of the formation of the plan on the
Coast generally and that the concern
would extend It to the East if the re
tail merchants would give their sup
port. Mr. Merryman sat down amid long
and continuous applause. He left the
room and several speakers rose to pro
pose a vote of thanks, among them
Secretary J. Green. Mr. Green's re
marks were plainly not to the taste of
the Missouri and Ohio delegates, who
hissed repeatedly. Several rose to sec
ond the vote of thanks, and then W. A.
Horn, of Chicago, rose and made a vit
riolic attack on the Fairbanks company,
its methods and its representative. He
said that at New York he had hoard
the same epeaker advocate an entirely
different policy, and charged him with
endeavoring to obtain free advertising.
C. E. Coon, of Washington, thought Mr.
Horn's action ungracious, and spoke in
favor of the motion.
President Kramer called for the vote,
and declared the motion passed. A rising
vote was then called for. and with the
two Eastern delegations standing solid
the motion was declared lost by a narrow
minority.
Later in the afternoon L. F. Padberg,
candidate for president, told W. A. Cook,
leader of the Ohio delegation, that he
did not believe he was a grocer.
Cook Makes Heated Reply.
"You Well, you don't know what
you are talking about," replied Mr. Cook.
"I certainly am a grocer, and not saloon
man at that, either." This, remark was
directed against Mr. Padberg. intending
to Intimate that the latter , is paying
greater attention to wines and liquors in
his store, than to the grocery end.
The trouble arose because while Mr.
Taiiberg was speaking Mr. Cook rose to
a point of order. He said Mr. Padberg
was speaking over the time allowed, and
the point of order was acknowledged by
the chair. Waiting his next opportunity
to speak, Mr. Padberg said Mr. Cook
was not interested in the grocery business
any longer, having left it some time ago.
Thomas P. Sullivan led a debate on
the question. "Shall we Support the Re
peal of the Bankruptcy Act?" Mr. Greddes,
of La Grande, Or., spoke on a bankrupt
being placed In an Important position by
a railroad, which was his reason for
believing the bankruptcy act required
repealing.
After some desultory discussion a
motion was passed advocating that the
association take action with Congress in
an endeavor to secure repeal of the law.
Resolutions Are Taken l'p.
The afternoon was mainly taken up
with consideration of various resolutions
recommended by the committee on reso
lutions. A summary of these resolutions,
with the action thereon, follows:
A resolution asking Congress to appoint
an arbitration committee on strikes to pro
tect the retailer carrying goods that may
be manufactured by Arms having a strike.
LAld on table.
A resolution against a tax on any food
product. Adopted.
A resolution to remove butter tax. Re
jected. A resolut.un condemning premium with
cereals. Adopted
indorsing bill In Congress. No. 5470, a res
olution was adopted against misleadlna ad
vertising. A waterway proposed from Chicago to St
Louis and New Orleans was condemned in
resolution form.
A resolution opposing the manufacturer
distributing cards redeemable bv themselves
as tending to over-stocking. Adopted
Premium schemes of all sorts were, op
posed by another adopted resolution
A resolution dealing with the cost of liv
ing ard favoring manufacturers who allowed
grocers at least per cent profit was ta
bled. A resolution against Increased freight
rates was tabled.
A resolution was carried Indorsing Sena
tor Gore's defense of the retailer against
letng a l -l I er.
Favorinc minimum prices for manufac
turer. .Tiber, retailer and consumer and
against placing the price on the packet a
resolution was carried.
Elect Delegate to England.
Several other unimportant resolutions
came up and the discussion got more
heated as the afternoon progressed
Questions were asked regarding the polni
of certain delegates in making rambling
remarks. Frank Connolly found it al
most impossible to raise enthusiasm for
a motion appointing Secretary Green aa
official delegate to the international con
vention of weights and measures to be
held in August at Oxford, England. The
motion was passed and the convention
adjourned before Mr. Green had time to
voice his thanks. The appointment Is
directly a reward for Mr. Green's faith
rul service to the association. He Is ex
ceptionally popular with certain delega
tions and by courtesy the appointment
was unanimous.
Turing the afternoon the ladies of the
party were entertained by the Egg-O-See
Company by an automobile trip around
the city. The autos formed in pro
cession on Sixth street, 18 strong
r.Th, Pnttlv of the Western
Cereal Company gave a dinner to a num
Ml
ber of the delegates and a reception was )
accoraea tne aeiegates and tne ladles ac
companying them at the Commercial
Club last night by the ' Portland Retail

OPTION LAW IS VIOLATED
I. A. Adams Sells Liquor In Kestau
. rant in Dry Precinct.
Charged with serving liquor at meals
without a city license, I. A. Adams, a res
taurant keeper, was arrested last night by
officers and taken to police headquar
ters, where he gave bond for appearance
this morning In the Municipal Court.
Adams' place is located at 120 Killings
worth avenue, and Is in a "dry' precinct.
It is very probable that he will be
prosecuted by state authorities on the
ground of violating the local option law
say the officers. '
Captain Moore, of the police first re
lief, has given all of the men under
his authority Instructions to keep a
sharp watch on restaurants which have
not taken out a license under the license
law passed and approved two weeks
ago governing the sale of liquors in pub
lic eating houses.
Adams stated that he was under the
Impression that it was permissible to sell
Intoxicants with meals without a license.

SULLIVAN'S CHANCES BEST
Chicago Man Expected to Head Or
ganization, as Padberg Has
Thrown Away Chance by
Intemperate Remarks.
Because H. W. Schwab, National treas
urer, declines to receive the presidential
nomination. Thomas P. Sullivan, of Chi
cago, may be given both nomination and
ratification at the meeting this afternoon
of the National Association of Retail
Grocers. Mr. Sullivan is not a strong
candidate, but after L. F. Padbergs
stormy scene yesterday afternoon on the
convention floor, even the Missourians
admit that the St. Louis man's chances
are very slim. Mr. Padberg permitted his
temper to get the better of him, and the
suggestion of W. A. Cook that he was a
saloon man has not helped his chances.
There are three men in the conference
by whom the selection of the nominee for
the presidential chair will be made. One
of these Is J. R. Newberry, of San Fran
cisco, millionaire grocer. The other two
are W. H. Cook, of Springfield, Ohio, and
E. G. Ashley, also of Ohio.
Mr. Newberry has been strong for Mr.
Schwab, and to secure his election formed
yesterday the Pacific Coast Association,
including in the association Nevada, Wy
oming, Idaho, British Columbia, Colorado
Texas and Utah. With this combined
vote he believed he could offset the Mis
souri men. who have shown a. tendency
to work with the Ohio delegation. This
alliance very far from suits Mr. New
berry"s ideas, for the big grocer has tried
hard to make himself the leading spirit
oi me convention. According to many
delegates he already fancies himself the
dominating factor.
Try to Down Newberry.
This has not appealed to the big Ohio
delegation bosses, and the flat has gone
forth to down ,Mr. Newberry. It was
thought this could be done by the election
of Mr. Padberg. but Padberg's weakness
developed yesterday afternoon and the
Padberg election for president was post
poned indefinitely.
The Ohio delegates secured passage of
a rule that the voting of all delegates
must be announced by the leader of the
delegation. By this means defection from
the ranks by personal predilection has
been stopped. At a late hour last night
the Ohio crowd received the word to
vote for Mr. Sullivan, but even now if
a stronger candidate could be discovered
they would drop the Chicago Iman.
Pressure Is being put on Mr. Kramer to
make a statement. But Mr. Kramer
wants to sit on the fence. He doesn't
oare much about the presidency anyway,
but he would think It rather a joke to
down Mr. Sullivan if he had the chance.
Ohio played another little game. She
objected because the resolution committee
became unwieldy with all the state presi
dents In, so President Kramer recon
stituted the committee to consist of only
seven members, of whom Mr. Ashley was
one. This practically gives Ohio entire
control. Out' of the 130 accredited voting
delegates, Ohio has 62 and Missouri 11.
With two small states, Ohio then has the
control.
Coast Leaders' Hopes Vanish.
Of course the delegates are objecting,
but it does them little good. Even Mr!
Newberry last night admitted weakness
when he said: "Mr. Schwab won't stand
for election or he'd win out all around
Of course Mr. Sullivan is weak, but who
else have we got?"
With Mr. Schwab In the running Mr
Newberry felt certain he would get the
support of every delegate except the
Missouri and Ohio delegations, and pos
sibly even the Ohio delegates would come
out for his candidate. With Schwab
missing. Mr. Newberry sees his dream of
ruling future conventions from the In
side passing like a dream.

nounced he is in the race for the presi

dency. But his chances for election are
poor.
A. H. Barth seems assured of getting
the nomination for director. Denver
tried for the convention last year and
fell down on it. There is a tendency this
year to give the Rocky Mountain state
a director, because with Minneapolis in
competition she may not get the conven
tion in 1911 for her fair. And that Is
what Denver is pulling for now.
Everyone Is going to sleep about the
convention city. After the lively times
last year both Denver and Portland kept
open house in the best hotels at Boston
the staid ways of the Springfield, III.',
men are even considered exasperating.
Springrfleld is giving around a few book
lets and distributing a few buttons, and
every delegate is just praying that some
town will rise up tonight and beat her
to it. Salt Lake might, but that's the
only chance.
