"From the facts at hand, I would ay the titanic struggle ended In a draw, each side apparently perform ing; valorously. " "The outstanding fact Of the engage ment Is that It emphasizes the great necessity of a world power having am ple naval strength. It also emphasises to tho United States that our navy should be equipped with more battle ships. "It should vindicate the recommen dations of the general hoard and set tle sll disputes about the wisdom of the board's urgent renuests for mora powerful fighting strength. "Latest reports show that it is pos sible to sink any kind of a battleship. .Too much dependence cannot be piaced On battle cruisers. "Although speed is sacrifices fnr arnior In battleships, this class of lighting machine will play the most .Important part in coming naval war fare. - i "Until authentic reports of a detailed character are received It Is impossible to comment on the significance of the ''engagement In any way except general ly.

"With deliberation and enthusiasm under circumstances which could not have been more complimentary evnd with unanimity never excelled in past con ventions you have been nominated by the Republicans of the nation as our candidate for president of the United States by your countrymen.

HARDING. "Ch ' -man. T. k. Tries to Swing; Xodre. Selection of Justice Hughes came gfter Colonel Roosevelt - had made a I last-hour attempt to swing a compro mise candidate for both his own Bull IJrfooBe party and the G. O. P. in the 1 person of Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts. It was. perfectly ap parent that the Republican delegates proposed to run their own steam roller over the colonel's aspirations this year. Selection of the "silent man' of present day American .polities' was celebrated by the usual convention up roar and parade of the state stand ards. There were brief but roof rais ing bits of applause and then every body stood, up and talked and hand clapped their enthusiasm. Oallfornians lied Parade. California, with its state banner, led the parade of the states through the hall. Hughefc nomination on an early bal lot was Indicated as early as midnight, when Sherman withdrew and asked that his 68 delegates vote for the supreme court justice. OhP; next Bwung into line, and then, just before the convention, Indiana, Iowa, Massa chusetts, Pennsylvania and others. Senator Weeks, the only favorite son actually on the ground here, for mally withdrew shortly after the con vention met, appearing on the plat form to declare he "wore no political scars" from his unsuccessful fight for the presidency. Colonel's Delegates Quiet. "Big Steve" Stevenson, otherwise "Angel Archie," national committee man from Colorado and from the first day of the convention a staunch Roose velt supporter, interrupted the ballot to announce dn behalf of all the Roose velt delegates that they considered themselves released from such a vote because of the colonel's letter to the Progressives. Voore Supports Hughes. Alexander P. Moore of Pittsburg, Pa., arose after announcement of the vote a.id said: "I fought to the last ditch for the I. an I believed was tbe best choice," he said, "but I now ask that the nomlna- on be made unanimous." Senator Lodge was the next to make similar motion. 'The convention has chosen strong, able, upright man, and a thor ough American," he saia. "He should receive the support of every ulan. It is an honor and pleasure to second Mr. Hughes' nomination." The motion was carried with such a thunderous chorus of "ayes" that the tuiimiittu announced; mere are no noes. VoOall Backs Hughes Massachusetts voted 33 of her 36 votes for Hughes, Governor McCaU arising to explain that while the dele gates appreciated the fitness of Sen ator Lodge, suggested by Roosevelt they neverthless felt the spirit of the convention was for Hughes. Governor Willis of Ohio concurred in withdraw ing Burton's name. Hughes' name was given a ereat. but not a long continued demonstra tion and then the convention got down to nomination of a vice president. When Harding announced the next order of business was the selection of a running mate, there was a chcius of shouts for Fairbanks, Borah and oth ers. The roll call then proceeded. Fairbanks nominated. Every state passed down to Colo rado, which yielded to Pennsylvania.

Ore gon, through Albert Abrahams, nom inated William Grant Webster of Illinois, as -vice president, he having receved the highest number of votes in the recent primaries. "I don't think he'll beat Fairbanks, here," he said, "but because he was named in the primaries we feel it our duty to present him." Senator Fulton of Oregon, ex plained the matter. "Under our primary law." he said, much to the amusement of the dele gates, anybody can put his name on the ballot for vice president." There was a roar of laughter as some one yelled "Amend it." "We will," retirted Fulton. "Heaven be thanked," commented Chairman Hardlnt. At the end of the second ballot last night the Hughes people tried to force a third, but were overruled by the ma jority and an adjournment was taken until 11 o'clock today. Balloting Began at 738. Tbe balloting began at 7:28, after an uninterrupted session of 9 hours and 2S minutes of speechmaklng. Hughes' lead was manifested almoafc immedi ately. He received 2534 votes on the first ballot, John E. Weeks, of Massachu setts, being his next competitor witH 105, and Elihu Root following with 103. Roosevelt received only 65. The remaining ballots were scattered among favorite sons.

June 10.-;.(TJ. P.) George W.

The expected definite break n the Progressive ranks In: the conferences between the two peace: committees came when Governor Johnson of j California and Parker of Louisiana refused to return for further deliberations after a recess was taken.

"We decided to present their com munication to this convention. Tbe question of a second choice on our part has been deeply discussed. "We laid the whole matter before Colonel Roosevelt last night and Colo nel Koosevelt sent a telegram." The telegram said In part: 'T understand you are to have your last conference today with the Repub lican conferees but that your commit tee has not settled on a second choice. For months I have thought of this matter and tried to find a common standing ground. " Can we not forget our past differences and find a com mon ground by which ws can express our Americanism?

Favorite tons' row was not a oheery spot about 4 a. in. today.' Frazzled managers slipped away for a few hours' rest, after a series of long con ferences; but it was evident the pow wows had availed nothing in the way of a combination to head off Hughes. Could Vot Agree. The managera of Burton, Fair banks, Cummins and .Root were ready to renew the battle, but they had not agreed on one of their candidates to be the recipient or their combiner! strength. Individually, they declared it possible to prolong the contest by continuing each favorite son for him self, but none wan willing to say Hughes might not win if an attempt was made to narrow the fight to Hughes and one favorite son. Over tures were made during the fight by Hughes' managers, first to this fav orite and then to that, offering them the vice presidency if it would deliver his strength to Hughet.. The vice presidential bait .did not appear at tractive, as all realised the moment they began dickering for second place their chance for first placs would go glimmering. Might Unite on Harding, A number of definite plans were under consideration by the favorite son managers today. One was to start a movement for Senator War ren G. Harding in the hope that the favorite son' delegates might be able to combine on him and defeat Hughes. Unlnstructed delegations were being watched by the favorite sons. Word was coming In early today that first one unlnstructed stale and then an other would break away and go to Hughes. At a meeting which did not adjourn until almost daybreak. Senator Weeks' supporters were released from their pledge to Weeks, and agreement reached to vote for Hughes. ftufus R Wilson, Weeks' manager, made the announcement of this step upon his arrival at tho convention shortly fore noon. b- my telegram of yesterday to Mr. Jack son of Maryland."
