CLOSE RESULTS IN
CONTROL CONTEST
NEW YORK, Sept. 21. That the
contest for control of tho Saratoga
rpnuhlicnn tiartv is to be sharp is
indicated by lato returns from the
nriinnrips nominating delegates. It
will probably take tho official count
to decide whether Roosevelt or Vice
President Sherman will control. It
is not likely, according to tho latest
ficures. that tho majority will bo
more than ten or fifteen votes either
way.
William Barnes, Jr., of Albany,
claims that Sherman's majority will
bo 55. Lloyd C. Griscqm, chief lieu
tenant for Roosevelt, claims the
colonel will control tho convention by
nt least 70 votes. Tho latest esti
mates made by politicians horo closo
ly watching tho contest show tlmt
the regulars can count on 492 dele
gates, It requires 508 to control.
Sherman was defeated in his own
