Chicago, June J5. The chief toplo of conversation here today In the lobbies of the various hotels and at the head quarters of the delegations is the state ment made by Benjamin Ide Wheeler, president of the University of Califor nia, that the vice-presidency la not only a useless office, but has coma to be a real menace to the system of govern ment of the United States. "in America." said President Wheeler. "we have outgrown the .vice-presidency. It was all very well to have a vice president 0 or 70 years ago. This spec tacle of struggling over the second place is a fine argument against the ex Istence of the office. The squabbles are likely to result In the placing of a weak man in a oosltlon where death or accident would make htm tile head of tne nation. Tne rule or succession which we now have would . be equally ample with the vice president left out. It would result In stronger cabinets and there would be less likelihood of weak successor to a strong president. Xnoz and Kls meads. Pittsburg. 'June 15.
