LEADERSHIP IS LACKING
Older Party Finds Nothing Has
Been Arranged Beforehand. "
Nomination Before Close ot
( Week Seems Improbable,
" CHICAGO, June 6. The Republican
and the Progressive National Conven
tions both assemble tomorrow without
any Indication that the leaders have
found, the common ground . on which
they hoped to establish unity.
Three days or almost constant con
ferences have failed to bring' the Re
publicans and the Progressives to an
agreement on a man for the Presi
dential nomination. A half dozen
names, any one of which Is acceptable
to the Republicans, have been rejected
by the Progressives, who have proposed
practically no name but Colonel Roose
velt's. The conventions assemble without an
outward evidence of the possibility of
agreement. Everything indicates that
they are far apart.
Leadership Seems Lacking:. I
Not since the party was born has
there been such a lack of cohesive lead
ership among the Republicans. There
never has' been a convention for which
so little had been arranged before
- hand. They plunge into their work
tomorrow with practically everything
tmdone which hitherto has been done
for them in the inner councils of the
leaders.
Hushes leaders, remaining confident
in their predictions that the Justice
will be nominated on an early ballot,
were lining up their forces tonight,
surveying the effect of the drive on
them by the allied favorite sons, and
recruiting unpledged delegates from
the latest arrivals.
Progressive leaders, -unwilling to say,
Jf they could, whether the Colonel
would support the Justice, continued
to carry on their fight for Mr. Roose
velt as their first choice. George B.
Cortelyou. a former member of the
Roosevelt Cabinet, arrived today and
joined William Loeb. Jr., and George
von Xj. Meyer, both former members of
the Colonel's official family, to com
prise a Roosevelt steering committee
within the Republican convention
itself.
Nomination May Be Late.
The Republican managers,' pressed by
the Progressives to hasten their nom
inations and disclose their candidate
if they hope to bid for Colonel Roose
velt's support and prevent a Progress
ive ticket from taking the field, have
received notice from Senator Smoot
that they can expect no nomination in
the Republican convention before Fri
day. Senator Penrose, addressing the
Pennsylvania Republican State delega
rf tion, today, declared that nomination
for President would be made before
late on Saturday.
Florida decided today to cast her
olid vote for Hughes and to stay with
him to the end. A poll of Kansas is re
ported to give nine votes for Hughes.
Prom New Jersey, Hughes" managers
expect to get at least 17 votes; the
Rhode Island delegation of 10 is re
ported solid for Hughes, and substan
tial gains were claimed in Connecticut
and other states.
If a ballot could be taken tonight,
the consensus of the several political
managers indicated that It would be
about as follows:
Hughes 261, Weeks 160, Roosevelt 88,
Cummins 81. Fairbanks 80. Burton 70,
Sherman 68. Knox 51, Root 42, I.aFol
lette 28, scattering E4; total. 9S3.
This excludes two delegates from the
IMstrict of Columbia, who were un
seated by the National Committee hut
will take their case before the creden
tials committee.
Hushes' Lead Conceded.
The allies generally conceded that
Mr. Hughes was in the lead, but tha
fact that he occupies this advantageous
position was not allowed to stand in
the way of their efforts to hold, their
forces in hand. Their plan is to pre-;
vent an eariy stampede to the Hughes
column, in the hope that delay may
bring into the situation some new ele
ment which would weaken him and
promote the prospects of some one of
the other candidates.
Much speculation has been indulged
In with regard to the effect of a posi
tive announcement from Mr. Roose
velt. No one counts on anything from
him favorable to Justice Hughes, but
me aay rather was characterized hv
expectation of a declaration contrary to
that interest.
Many believe that such an expression
wouia oe iatai to Justice Hughes' nom
ination because, they say, it would
mean certain defeat at the polls. Some,
however, advocate his nomination even
in the teeth of disapproval by the ex
President. Progressive Leaders Embarrassed.
The Progressive leaders are not hid
ing the fact that they are embarrassed
by a lack of control over their dele
gates and they fear that they cannot
delay a nomination in their convention
until after the Republicans have acted.
When told of this situation. Republi
can managers have bluntly replied that
this predicament is the Progressives'
own affair.
It developed today that there is a
growing disposition to evolve a con-

the extremely radical elements which
would do everything for conscience'
sake and nothing for expediency. The
former element, composed, largely of
active business men, are inclined to
continue the efforts to bring about an
affiliation with the Republicans. The
other elements demand the acceptance
of Colonel Roosevelt as the only basis
of compromise. They go so far as to
say that even if Mr. Roosevelt should
indorse the candidacy of such a man as
Justice Hughes, the Progressives would
proceed with their convention and nom

other leader, for instance, Governor

the Coliseum today until he observed

"That a Chicago man?" exclaimed
Stone.
"Yes."
"'Promote him to an inside job at
once," said Stone. "I can't have any of
these popular Chicago fellows at the
doors. I've got some good Maryland
lads who want to be taken care of."
Thereupon Stone appointed Edward
J. Styles, of Baltimore, to that job.
Styles was a doorkeeper eight years
ago. Martin A. Zeun. of Baltimore, was
another man who got authority. The
Sergeant-at-Arms, it may be added,
comes from Maryland.
"No chance for a Chicago man at the
doors," commented Tom Palpin, who
is doing the cerberus act in front of
the Stone door mat. "I've been around
conventions 20 years, and I never saw
a local man appointed to a door' Job

of us at a door and all our friends
coming up to get in. No, there's no
chance for a Chicago man."

HUGHES GETS 2 CONVERTS
gressive convention will adopt a platform-
in which the dominant note
shall be a stouter Americanism, less
hyphenatism, no watchful waiting and
a greater measure of social and in
dustrial justice, and the Presidential
nomination will be tendered to Roose
velt, though there may be, and prob
ably will be, if Roosevelt insists upon
it, delay until after action by the Republicans.
Negotiations May Follow.
What then? Just here any political
forecast must be wobbly; quite wobbly.
A period of negotiation, perhaps, will
follow until Roosevelt knows what
Hughes will do, or Hughes knows what
Roosevelt will do. It is conceivable
that Roosevelt will wait for Hughes'
letter of acceptance, and it Is just as
conceivable that Hughes will demand
to , know where Roosevelt will stand
ixto his candidacy.
It may be easily conjectured that
Hughes will decline if a party
split is faced, and likewise it may
be conjectured that Roosevelt will
decline if he is even measurably
satisfied with the Hughes declara
tions and that he will support
Hughes, while the Progressives as an
organization will not. It is not so
easily conceivable that Roosevelt will
head another bolt unless he can satisfy
himself that his duty to his conscience
and his country calls for a repudiation
of both Hughes and Wilson.
A Progressive bolt without Roose
velt would be something of a travesty
upon tne real thing, of course. But
it would mean several hundred thou
sand votes and so great a number
taken from Hughes might have disas
trous consequences. It would help great
ly toward the election of Wilson. Per
haps that is what the hide-bound Pro
gressives want. That is Just It. nrob-

CONVENTION HALL. Chicago. June
6. (Special.) The Washington dele
gation, vexed because reports of in
ternal dissension have become public,
met today and adopted a resolution
binding to secrecy every member of
the delegation. Every delegate pledged
himself to refrain from talking with
newspaper men.
No sooner was this done than the
delegation renewed the fight that has
broken out between Ed Sims and Na
tional Committeeman Perkins, on the
one hand, and Sims and Charles F.
Lund on the other.
Sims and Perkins are at loggerheads.
Each aspires to control the delegation
and to be recognized as the Republican
leader in the State of Washington. Per
kins is not for Weeks. He believes
Weeks is not a winner. Sims hitched
up to the Weeks bandwagon when he
was in Washington last Winter and
promised to deliver the 14 votes to
Weeks, and he is now unable to make
good. He blames Perkins in a large
measure for his failure.
Weeks Sentiment Not Foud.
The Sims-Lund row is over tha ef
fort of the former to force the adop
tion of the unit rule.
Sims today called for a further re
port from his "snooping" committee,
appointed yesterday. The committee
said that it had discovered nothing
new. It failed utterly to report a grow
ing sentiment tor Weeks; in fact, could
not see that Weeks had made any
progress, or that he had a chance for
the nomination. When this report was
submitted, tha delegation decided the
committee was of no further value and
its activities were brought to a close.
The delegation then adjourned. Later
on, representatives of the Hughes
boosters got hold of several memburs
of the Washington delegation who have
been listed- up to this time aa for Root
and made two converts. This was i
blow to both Perkins and Sims.
When the delegation met again to
night and noses were counted, it was
found that eight Washington delegates
are for Hughes, four for Root and two
for Weeks. The further information
was elicited that if Hughes continues
to gain strength among the delegates
generally, that the remaining four Root
men will swing to Hughes, leaving
Sims with Taylor as his only follower.
The Washington delegates, except
Sims and Taylor, are showing signs of
having heard the rumbling of the band
wagon. What is more, they have been
hearing from home that the vote in
Oregon is a reflection of sentiment in
Washington also. ' '
The swing from Root to Hughes Is i
particular blow to National Committee
man Perkins, who has been for Root
from the first. He is unable to hold his
forces against the strong Hughes tide,
and another day may find his whole
strength in the Hughes camp. The
Washington delegation is In a frame of
mind to disregard the leaders alto
gether and vote the sentiments of the
people of the state.
Dr. Coe Is Committeeman.
The Oregon delegation to the Pro
gressive convention met and organized
today. Dr. Henry W. Coe was made
National committeeman. David L, Po-
vey is chairman of the delegation and
member of the committee to notify the
Presidential nominee; Paul H. Buchhol
is vice-chairman of the delegation and
member of the committee on creden
tials. while Mary E. Hill is secretary
of the delegation. A. E. Clark goes on
the committee on resolutions and on
rules and order of -business; Emmett
Callahan is on permanent organization
nd the committee to notify the Vice
Presidential nominee. L. S. Beverldge
is Oregon's vice-president of the con
vention. The delegation also agreed
to seat five Oregon Republicans as dele
gates in the Progressive delegation,
but have not yet been furnished the
names of those who will serve.
This evening Dr. Coe. Mr. Clark, act
ing for State Chairman Neuhausen,
and David L. Povey, as chairman of the
Oregon delegation, attended the big
Progressive meeting. None of the Ore
gon delegates participated in the dis
cussion. They have assumed an atti
tude of conservatism and are not at all
in sympathy with those delegates who
are demanding the prompt nomination
of Roosevelt, without further parley
with the Republicans.
Union of Parties Is Hope.
The Ores:on delegates are hopeful
that a programme of harmony may be
worked out and think no move should
be made by the Progressive convention
by way of namlnating a candidate until
they hear from the Republican con
vention. They are, in other woras, ais-
posed to view the Republican canai
date, and size him up according to Pro
gressive standards, and lr ne proves
the right type of man standing for the
principles they indorse, they hope a
way can be found to unite the two
factions, and present a solid opposition
to Wilson next Fall.
"If all the delegations were situatea
as we are in Oregon, saiu ui.
tonight, "there would be no trouble
about getting harmony. We in Oregon
can get together, and want to get to
gether. But we feel the next move is
up to the Republicans." What the out
come or tne progressive cuuvciii.un
will be. Dr. Coe would not venture m
predict. "
National Committeeman Ingersoll. of
Idaho, and Chairman Sheridan, of the
Idaho Progressive delegation, have
irnna nvr to the Radicals, body and
soul, and are demanding a break with
the Republicans, preferring to see vm
son elected, rather than to Join with
the Republicans in supporting a can
didate mutually acceptable. The
Idahoans are advocating wreck and
ruin.

Egyptian army. His really great career
dates frrm that time.
The Kitchener campaign that ended
with the recapture of Khartum was
considered by military experts as per
fectly organized and faultlessly con
ducted. The fight at Omdurman, Sep
tember 2, 1898, Just across the Nile
from Khartum, was the greatest battle
of Kitchener's time in Egypt. Osman
Dlgna faced him with 60,000 Mah diets,
while he had but 20,000 men. When
the battle was over 11,000 of the Mah
dists had been killed outright. 16,000
wounded, and 4000 taken prisoners,
while the .English and Egyptian losses
altogether were under 500 men.
With the capture of Khartum, cap
ital of the Sudan, which meant the re-
establishmeut of British possession of
these upper reaches of the Nile, Kitch
ener became the object of hero-worship
in England. His campaign had beer ;
and is to this day. much criticised,
however., because of its ruthlessness.
For his triumphs in the Sudan he
was raised to the peerage as Baron
Kitchener of Khartum, and received
the thanks of Parliament and a grant
of $150,000. Shortly afterward he was
promoted Lieutenant-General and then
Chief of Staff to Lord Roberts in the
South African war, and on Lord Rob
erts' return to England in November,
1900, succeeded him as Commander-in-Chief
in that field. By constructing a
3500-mile chain " of blockhousea he
stopped the Boer raids and virtually
ended the war in South Africa. This
added to his popularity and prestige at
home, and he was rewarded by the
title of Viscount, promotion to the rank
of general for distinguished services.

grant of $250,000.
Immediately after the peace General
Kitchener went to India as Commander-in-Chief
of the British forces there.
During all the years the British peo
ple had looked on Kitchener's silent,
but effective work, they had never
been able to fathom his personality.
A cockney non-commissioned officer,
who had seen much service under him,
