(onrc of Events Subject to Alter
ation by Some Sudden Move of
Colonel's, and Field of
V Conjecture Is Open.
CHICAGO, June 6. (Editorial corre
spondence.) The neck-breaking radi
cals and wild eyes are clearly In con
trol of the Progressive National Con
vention and will nominate Theodore
Roosevelt for President unless they are
rudely restrained by the positive ulti
matum of the Colonel himself. George
W. Perkins has sought to hold back
the irreconcilables and impossibles, but
the job is too great for him. His lead
ership has been displaced in fact,
though not in form, by Hiram Johnson,
Victor Murdock, Gifford Pinchot and all
the roaring hotheads.
If Oyster Bay speaks, they may lis
ten, but they are tired of Perkins'
brand of pacifism and compromise and
they want Roosevelt. They intend, if
they can, to put Roosevelt up to the
Republican convention whether the
niajor body likes it or not, and they
w ill listen to no counter proposal. They
want, harmony, to be sure, and they
will accept It If its name spells Roose
velt and not otherwise. Perkins can
not stop them.
Republicans Are Unmoved.
The Progressive steam roller run by
the- little bosses is in action.
But the road-agent methods of the
Johnsons, Murdocks and Pinchots have
not had the slightest effect on the
Republican delegates, - except to' in
crease the growing irritation and en
hance, greatly - the likelihood of a
schism. It is not so plainly a break be
tween Roosevelt and the Republicans
as it is between the Progressive or
ganization and the Republican organi
sation. With a possibility of a sharp
rupture between the professional
Rooseveltlans and Roosevelt himself,
the whole situation has taken on an
aspect so extraordinary and so critical
that the bankruptcy of any proposed
scheme of reunion and harmony is im
minent, through the obduracy and
prejudice of the delegates themselves
and not through Roosevelt, nor Per
kins, nor Hughes, nor the favorite
sons nor the Old Guard.
Progressives Ready for Revolt.
The Republican convention won't
have Roosevelt, no matter what he
says or does, or the Progressives say
or do. The Progressives at last under
stand the temper of the Republicans
and are ready to revolt, and -unquestionably
will revolt, if they can take
their leader with them. They want
to do it anyway. Just now the Roose
velt hounds are ahead of the Roosevelt
bares..
The probability of Hughes' nomina
tion increases with the hours. The
statement on patriotic duty and pre
paredness made by the Justice before
those young ladies at Washington only
mildly affects the situation. If It was
designed in any way to meet the de
mands of Progressives that he declare
himself, before a nomination, it has not
been a shining success. But the Re
publicans have no doubt at all about
the Justice's genuine Americanism and
his abhorrence of all forms and phases
of dislcyalty and unpreparedness, hy
phenated and otherwise. It has be
come obvious that the Far West, sup
posed to be the impregnable strong
hold for Roosevelt sentiment, is for
Hughes. The M'ddle West appears to
have the same trend, and the states of
the favorite sons are only waiting an
opportunity to do their formal duty
and then to go rejoicing elsewhere,
preferably to Hughes in the main.
Roosevelt Faces New Problem.
I would have no hesitancy at all In
making an unqualified prediction 'of
an early Hughes victory if I could es
cape the notion that the clear course
of events may at any moment be al
tered by some sudden and sensational
action by Colonel Roosevelt. It would
seem that the immediate problem for
him is not what the Republicans will
do. but the Progressives. They are
running wild, being headed straight
for another glorious but futile Arma
geddon. The demand of the Progressives that
Mr. Hughes tell where he stands may
now be set down as a bluff. They
don't care to know, or. if they were
told, they would not take a Hughes
for a Roosevelt. I am disposed to ven
ture a guess as to' what will happen,
though I am not a prophet, having
abandoned long ago the practice of
political crystal-gazing. One sees in
that picturesque pastime too many
things that are not so. I look for the
Republican convention to organize in
the usual manner and go ahead, after
adoption of a platform following more
or less explicitly Rooseveitian out
lines, to a nomination of Hughes. Jus
tice Hughes will make no statement
whatever prior to a nomination as to
what he believes on any public ques
tion, or what he will do. The Pro-

ring Issue to Convention. .
DES MOINES, June 6. Defeat of the
state constitutional amendment pro
viding for woman's suffrage was in
dicated tonight, virtually complete re
turns from all but five counties in the
state giving the antis. a majority of
nearly 6000 over the advocates of votes
for women.
The exact figures were 144,966
against suffrage, 139,253 in favor of the
amendment, a majority for the antis
of 5713 votes. It was thought that
the figures from the missing counties
would cut down the anti-suffrage ma
jority to approximately B000 votes.
In the race for the Republican nom
ination for Governor, W. L. Harding,
of Sioux City, was expected on the
final count to poll between 40 and B0
per cent of the total vote, more than
enough to obtain his nomination with
out referring the fight to the Repub
lican convention.
Attorney-General Cosson was second
in the race, 10,000 votes ahead of Sen
ator Joseph Allen, the third contest
ant. Kuehnlc. of Denison. was a bad
fourth.
In the race for state offices, aside
from the Governorship, it seemed likely
that the following would be selected:

LONDON", June 6. Karl Kitchener,
British Minister of War. and four of
his aides were lost at sea off the
Orkney Islands last night, when the
British cruiser Hampshire, which was
conveying them to Russia, was sunk,
either by a torpedo or a mine. All on
board the cruiser are believed to have
perished. The ship's company is said
to have numbered between ZOO and
300.
This announcement, made officially
by the Admiralty this morning, caused
a sensation in London and the feeling
of gloom that followed was even great
er than that produced by the early ac
counts of the recent Jutland naval
battle, when it seemed that the British
navy had met a complete reverse.
All oa Board Probably Lost.
That all on board the Hampshire
probably were lost is admitted In the
official account, which says that patrol
vessels dispatched to the scene imme
diately after the tragedy and search
parties detailed along the coast have
found nothing more than a few bodies
and a capsized .boat. London holds no
hope that either Earl Kitchener or any
of the ship's company has been saved.
Karl Kitchener was going to Russia
at ..he request of the Russian govern
ment. He intended, to land at Arch
angel and visit Petrograd and probably
go to the Russian front. His mission
had chiefly to do with the supply of
munitions for Russia,
Early Return Planned.
The Earl expected to be back in Lon

An official statement issued tonight
says that Karl Kitchener was to have

ener's death was circulated in special
editions of the newspapers, crowds
started toward Whitehall. That thor

hoping that the first reports were ex

Orjan Presented to Willamette
Vnlverslty as Prelude to De
struction of Landmark.
A new business building probably
will replace the old First Methodist
Church at Taylor and Third streets, ac
cording to Information which devel
oped yesterday, when Amedee M. Smith,
oa behalf of the First Methodist Church
of Portland, presented the pipe organ
tn the old Taylor-street Church to. Wil
lamette University at Salem.
The trustees of Willamette Univer
sity accepted the organ and authorized
$300 to transport it from the church to
Salem.
It is understood that plans are being
considered to raze the historic old
church and erect a building within a
short time.
The old Taylor-street Church is one
of the historic church edifices of the
city. It has been the worshiping place
of many of the pioneers of Portland,
and for the last several years since it
has been closed has been the center
of a dispute between the consolidated
First Church and some of the original
members of Taylor-street.
The cost of the proposed business
block on the Taylor-street Church site
is not yet announced. The main pur
pose is to make a paying property of
the site.
Dr. Frank L. Loveland. pastor of the
First Church, said last night that
while the organ was presented yester
day, the board of trustees of the church
had not completed plans for a building.
"It has been discussed, but I under
stand the board has not come to a con
clusion on It," said Dr. Loveland.

The hub of the universe of festive
merriment poked itself up in the mid
dle of Portland last night when Queen
Muriel assumed the crown and scepter
over the Rose Festival.
Coming with K.ing Joy from Pendle
ton, the firet Queen that has ever ruled
the Rose Festival who was not a Fort
land girl. Queen Muriel seemed to con
jure up on the night of her coronation
the mightiest multitude of subjects that
has ever arisen on the first night of
the Festival.
Enthusiasm la Spontaaeouii.
The ceremony of coronation and
opening of the Festival Center was
largely impromptu. Yet without the
smooth machinery of a formal pro
gramme, it swept through to exuberant
success on the spontaneous enthusi
asm of all those who took part in i':.e
play.
It was as if Queen Muriel had evoked
a Festival out of chaos. Just as she
evoked a blaze of lights out of th
darkness of Broadway, as she was go
ing up to receive her crown.
It was "follovr the crowd" from the
beginning, and it was a crowd that
increased in vastness and festive good
humor as rapidly as roses pop out into
full bloom on these sunny days.
Qneen Makes First Appearance.
The Rosarian Band began Its concert
on Fifth and Oak shortly before 7
o'clock, and 'the general public, which
seemed to have been concentrating
along Broadway, began instinctively to
crystallize around the band and around
the Portland Hotel, where it had been
announced that Queen Muriel and Kins
Joy were to appear first.
Up the street inarched the Rosariana
with band and drill team, and the
Queen-elect and her retinue began to
iseue from the south entrance of the
hotel, gorgeous in their royal robca
as big butterflies, or rare orchids.
Then the crowd knew definitely
where to mass itself, and all Portland's
visitors began to pile up in bank upon
bank of interested humanity about the
automobiles of the toyal party.
Tara Escort Q,neen.

Dundore, of the Rose Festival Board,

Headed by a company of Oregon
Naval Militia under Ensign C. J. Dyer,
with the Rosarlans' band and drill
team as an escort of honor, the cars
bearing the royal party proceeded up
Sixth street and down to the City Hall,
where Slayor Albee, in immaculate Ro
sarian suit, was waiting to do his first
duty in the imperial game of Festival
opening.
Crowd Follow a Royal Pair.
The band blared up to the Fifth,

pared to come forth and then the pro
