Of these contests the national com mittee Friday and Saturday decided in Taft's favor all of those from Ala bama, Arkansas, Florida anil Georgia, total 72. Out of these figures may be made combinations to suit almost any polit ical taste: It all depend! on how the national committee decides the con tests; who gets the uinslructed dele gates, and most important of all whether the delegates now listed one wav or the other "stay put." Francis J. Heney, who prosecuted the San Francisco graft cases and former Governor Ceorge O. Pardee of California, who were among those ar riving at the Roosevelt headquarters, conferred with I'nlted Slates Senator Dixon of Montana. Colonel Roosevelt's campaign manager, and other leaders. After a meeting of a group of Roos evelt managers Unofficially, It was an nounced that Colonel Roosevelt would arrive in Chicago either by the mid dle or latter part of the week, but they decline to name the exact day, Wal ter F. PrOwn of Toledo, chairman of the republican state central commit tee in Ohio, and one of the active Roosevelt leaders, departed from Chi cago, for the east and it was reported that he had gone to Oyster Ray u confer with Colonel tioosevell regard ing the developments of the last 21 hours In the convention situation. Thomas K. Neidringhaus of St. Louis, newly appointed national com mitteeman from Missouri, also depart ed from Chicago for the east. It was said that he had gone to Pittsburgh, but the nature of his mission was not divulged. Will Not Withdraw Ci.nte-I-. Senator Dixon Issued a statement in which he denied reports that the Roosevelt managers intended to with draw pending contests. The statement said: "Of course we do not Intend to do any such thing. Kvery contest will be presented by us. If a majority of the national committee is prepared to deliberately unseat Roosevelt delegates is the Taft managers Insist they will do, we are going to see that the rob bery is committed In the open daylight ind In full view of ninety million American people. "It is perfectly npparent that the Taft managers have undi perfect control enough meml.es of the nn lional committee to do exactly as they please, regarding the remaining con tests, nearly nil of which are from She republican states of the east and west. "To gain temporary control of the invention the Inner circle of Taft Managers boldly have determined to unseat Roosevelt delegates from Call '"rnla. Washington, Missouri and iouth Dakota. In California and south Dakota, Colonel Roosevelt re ceived overwhelming majorities In the oreferentlal primaries. "In Missouri and Washington, Col inel Roosevelt had majorities of from 100 to 400 In the state convention." Secretary of the Treasury McVeagh arrived today and met a number of ;he Tuft leaders.

The repub licans of the country were railed upon Saturday night by Col. Roosevelt to protest against the action of the re publican national committee In ruling upn the content, tor seats In the na tional convention from the Ninth AIa" bama district The colonel served notice upon his opponents that. In his opinion, the party as a whole would repudiate a nomination If It were obtained In "de fiance of Justice " He declared that every man who wishes to see the party continue to exist should protest at once "against those who are deliberately trying to wreck It." "The leaders," said the colonel. " H """ " 'hy lhe ,rei,;ui,irj 'r"t,j' px,"it' en out after j conference which last ed all the afternoon. He was in con stant touch over hia private wires during the day with Senator Dixon and his other lieutenants in Chicago. He also consulted with a number of his supporters who visited him. Col. UmiMM ell's Statement. Col. Roosevelt's statement is as follows: "In lew of the action taken by th national committee yesterday in un seating the two duly elected delegates In the Ninth Alabama district, and re placing them hi men who have no mote title to sit in the republican con vention than they have to sit In the democratic convention. I would like to make as serii us an appeal as is in my power to every good citizen who regards the republican party as an in strument for gooil go ernntciH which it is wicked lightly to destroy. "Alabama iB entitled to 24 delegates In the convention. As regard several of the districts where there have been contests, it is by sincere belief that the right was as much on our side as on the side of our opponents. Hut ill these districts there was room for honest dOUbt, and talking the mat ter over with Senator Dixon, we both agreed to advise the Roosevelt mem bers of the national committee to support no contest In any district i where there was room for reasonable doubt as to the right of the Roosevelt delegates to be seated. Accordingly In all the Alabama districts in ques tion the Roosevelt men in the nation al committee voted with the majority, and this in spite of the fact that, as 1 have already said, we regard the claims of the Roosevelt men in cer tain of these districts ns being as good as those of their opponents. Facts in the Ninth District. "Hut in the Ninth Alabama district two Roosevelt delegates hail been un ouostional ly elected. The facts are as follows: The republican commit tee of this district, composed of 30 members, met to cull the convention. Eighteen members were favorable to my candidacy, 12 to Mr. Taft's. The Taft men conceded that this was the regular district committee, and began by participating in the meeting, but as soon as it developed that the Roosevelt men were in the majority the 12 Taft men left the meeting and I : convention of their own, leav frg IS members, a . clear majority of the regular committee, to call the reg ular convention in which the Roose velt delegates were named. "No serious evidence was presented before the national committee to eon cravens these raits. The contest against these two regularly elected nooseveu delegates had literally no foundation whatever, even of the most flimsy description. There was no more ground lor unseating these del egates than there would be. for ex ample, in unseating the Taft delegates from Rhode Island or in any district in any state where there is nn con test whatever. Tiegal Delegates Unseated, "Vet the national committeemen who are supporting Mr. Taft voted to unseat the two men properly elected and to seat in the national conven tion two men who, us I have said, literally have no more right to ap pear as delegate:', in that convention than they have to appear in the dem ocratic national convention. They represent nothing whatever in the re publican party except the determina tion of certain members of the na tional committee who have them selves been repudiated by the repub lican putty, thai the majority of the party shall not be ermltted to decide be the nominee call the attention w in in they wish to for president. "Now, I wish to i not only to all good oi all good citizens. republicans, but to just what this type of action means. As yet there is no law to govern national nominating conventions as there is to govern na tional elections, although in certain states the nomination of candidates Is tarried on under the law of those Mates precisely as are the elections. bUferanea "Not in Morality." "Because of this lack of federal law ttOtS, Which if done to Influence elec tions, woidd Ik- criminal, can be per petrated with Impunity so far as na tional nominations are concerned. Hut this Is a difference in legality, and not In morality. Again and again we have sent to the penitentiary election officials for deeds morally not one whit worse than whut was done by the members of the national com mittee who unseated the two properly elected delegates ,'n this Ninth district of Alabama, and substituted for them men who have no more rit, it to vote in the national convention than u re peater has to vote nt an election. "The majority of the committee men thus voted to sent In the repub lican convention men who have no shadow of right to represent uny por tion of the republican party anywhere, and who have no more right to sit in that convention than any other two outsiders. Nine of these committee men came from the republican states of Illinois, Kansas. Missouri. New Jersey, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Evtrj One Repudiated. "Kvery one of these nine national committeemen has been repudiated by his home voters. Not one of them will succeed himself on the national committee. Kach of them represents a state which at the recent primaries has declared overwhelmingly against Mr. Taft. The nine states, In the ag gregate, have 302 delegates In the convention, of which 258 are for Roosevelt, and only 34 for Taft. The nine committeemen are for Mr. Taft, the delegates from their states an eight to one against him. "It Is In view of these facts and of What these facts foreshadow that I wish to make my appeal to the sober Judgment of all men who believe that tbe usefulness of the republican party has not ended. Kvery man who wishes to. see the republican party continue to exist should at once protest against those who arc deliberately proceed ing to wreck It. The leaders speak aa If they were the regular republi cans. I don't concede that theft Is a test of regularity. "The republican party Is not In commission, nor has It appointed ns Its receivers the nine repudiated com mitteemen I have mentioned nor their other colleagues who have In similar fashion been repudiated by the popu lar vote of the republicans of their states'. Preference Not an Issue. "Nor Is the question now at laaue one as to the personal preference of any republican for any particular man for president or for the doctrines which that in b o, lies. Tiv ciuee y whether the deilb- nf the men whose leadership has Just been repudiated by this same majority. "A nomination obtained by the votes of delegates seated in utter de fiance of Justice, as two Alabama del egates have Just been seated, would be worthless to the man obtaining i'. and would be indignantly repudiated by the party as a whole. Apparently certain national committeemen and certain of the bossen who from out side influence the national commit tee have yet to learn that the rank and tile of the republican party must be treated as the masters and not the servants of their representatives. The republican party ennnot continue to exist unless its official acts is deter mined by the expression of the sober anil deliberate judgment of the ma purity of the party." A majority of the members of the republican national committee after a lengthy conference ttjhoftli hilly decided lo refrain from Any comment upon the statement issued by Colon. I Roosevelt, in which the former president de nounced the action of tin committee in seating the two Taft delegates from (he Ninth Alabama district. An impromptu meeting of the na tional i mittee membets was attend ed exclusively by those committeemen who generally are accepted us being favorable to President Taft. Certain of the Ootnmitteemen who attended the meeting ex-pressed great indignation at the text of Colonel Roosevelt's statement, which they de clared was deserving of an emphatic reply, others, howuvi i . counselled against a reply of any kind ami urged their fellow committe members to ig nore the statement. This advice fin ally prevailed. Scarcely any of the Taft members of the committee would discuss the meeting after it had been concluded. One, however, said: Will Ignore "l im-asonable People." "We are going to stand on our ac tions, regardless of the remarks of persons who are prejudiced and un fair. The work speaks lor itself and that is all there is to ii There is hut one way to handle unreasonable peo ple and that is to Ignore them." Despite the fact that it was Sunday and thai a number of the leaders were out of town the cumpaittn headquar ters of both Taft and Roosevelt men were busy most of the da v.

Legislation providing for a general parcels post throughout the United Slates Is prac tically certain to be enacted by the present congress, perhaps before the conclusion of the session now in pro gress, in the opinion of Postmaster General Hitchcock, lie has urged in sistently upon congress the desirabil ity of domestic parcels post, because among other reasons, he believes it will aid substantially in the solution of the problem of the high cost of living. In a statement yesterday he expressed the hope that the measure recently Introduced by Senator Bourne, chairman of the committee on postoffices and post roads, might be crystallzed Into law. W. F.
