GIANTS OF POLITICS III REPEATED CLASHES Mind - Breaking Struggle for Advantage Proceeds Great Crowds Frequent Head Quarters of Each. CHICAGO, June 17. With less than 2-t hours re maining before the crash of the gavel will be heard in the republican national convention, the Rooievelt and Taft forces this morning staked final hands in their bitter struggle. The real things happening to day were entirely lacking iu the spectacular. While en thusiastic bands were playing about the headquarters of the various delegations and admir ing throngs sought to catch glimpses of political heroes,, the final heart rending, mind I ilea king struggles were pro ceeding within quiet rooms. In these last clashes there was no place for a weak man. Contending leaders who have spent their lives working to1 perfect every artifice in the game of politics brought them to bear in examinations and iuizzings that amount to third decree tests upon recalcitrant politicians from many states. And these men heard forcasts I' what would happen to them a year from now unless they agreed to abide by demands made upon them. Over one side of the si rug gle there ruled the master hand of Roosevelt and work ing against him were men whose political keenness would stand a world - test. Mm Turn to "Dark Hone." In summary the question Is whether the republican "el phant" will respond to the vigorous digs of either of the two contending drivers or whether it will twist Us trunk about each and hurl them aside to go Us own wuy. Indications were today that the last contingency Is not ut nil Impossible Roosevelt and his advisers, It Is said, have determined to break down Taft'g strength In convention through the medium of preliminary ballots, ul. milting the matter of debated seats to the convention en bloc. I.oosevelt men expect to achieve this by demanding a roll call on the tem porary chairmanship or the very tlrst question that conies before the con vention. Then It Is planned to have Governor Johnson of California cast the 26 votes for that state on the question. It la expected this action will he objected lo by the two Taft delegates from the fourth California district The Hoosevelt floor leader then would move that the temporary roll made up by the nationul com mittee he rejected and that a substi tute roll. Including the 70 or 80 dele gatci, claimed by Roosevelt he adopt ed. None of the delegates affected by the contests could vote and the Roose velt men believe such a poll would give them the tipper hand In the or gnnlzatlon. Unless Hoosevelt leaders get this vole on the contests at once. It Is said they plan to Immediately move the nomination of Roosevelt, at- teniDtlne to have a convention of their own within the hall. Tafl Forces Aroused. Fully aware of the gravity of these developments. Taft managers and members of the nstlonal commlttei favorable to the president held con tinued councils In efforts to evolve methods of summarily blocking the scheme. Fear of disorder In the con 1 entlon was freely expressed and pre dictions of aerlous trouble were fre quent. The tension at headquarters on beth sides and In the hotels in creased throughout the day .tnd In some quarter of the illy detectives and policemen were needed lo pre vent personal clashes between dele- gstes. The day was the most exciting that has preceded an opening of the repuh ilcun national convention In many veers'. Leaders wore themselves down to the point of ph si moat oeaaeless torta to keep the in line. Roosevelt arranged for a re ception this afternoon when he hopes to meet every one of the delegates to the convention. Tonight at the Auditorium theater he will be the principal figure at a mass meeting of Roosevelt followers. E.Tly today Sen ator Borah of Idaho wax selected as the choice of the Roosevelt forces for temporary chairman and Gov. Hadley of Missouri for floor leader. Third candidate talk continued in many quarters, the name of Justice Hughes being prominent in the discussions. Penrose Ucady for Coup. As Taft leaders gathered for a council of war just before noon, Sena tor Penrose said, "we are ready for that scheme or any other chimerical proposal that comes from the same source." He referred to the plan emanating from Roosevelt headquar ters of substituting a new temporary roll call for that created by the na tional committee. Penrose continued: "Not a lawyer in the convention would seriously consider any propo sition to set aside party traditions in disposing of contest cases. The con vention will transact business just as it has in the past. We know how to deal with disorder." Governor Hadley, t Roosevelt floor leader, forecast today that no con tested delegates seated by the na tional committee should sit In the convention, declaring "we are going to light from the jump." Senator Dixon and Hadley arc counting on securing the support of many southern delegates, who, they say, will switch from Tuft to Koose velt. Some of those are said to be from South Carolina and Georgia. After a conference of Taft leaders they announced they did not core how won the Hoosevelt forces attempted 10 try their parliamentary coup. . Hard Work for IJou Hunter. Roosevelt's reception today was hard work for even the Hon hunter. Several times before the apparently endless string of enthusiasts hud passed him he cried out, "Not an other man, not another man." He began handshaking with enthusiasm. After half an hour of it, however, the perspiration was rolling from his face, his voice was getting tremulous and he was skipping over half a dozen hands at a time. He finally esenped with the aid of police to a conference of his leaders. In his suite at the headquarters hotel, Roosevelt received delegations from Oklahoma, Illinois, New Jersey and Massachusetts. Ijiter Mathcw Hale of Boston nnnounced that the right delegates-at-large from Massa chusetts, who had been renounced by Roosevelt in favor of Taft, would vote for Roosevelt. Woodruff Out for T. It. Chicago, June 17. The New York republican delegation held a stormy session Saturday night, precipitated by an announcement by Timothy I.. Woodruff, that he regarded the ac tion of the national committee in de ciding the Texus contests In favor of Taft as a "clear steal" and that It would be impossible fo.' the president to win the election. He was taken to task by William Rarnes. jr., and Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. Mr. Woodruff's outburst first he came known late In the afternoon. It was made privately, but soon became known to other members of the dele gations. His colleagues from Brook lyn called a meeting and confronted him with the statement he was re ported to have made. mm it." Mr. wooorun HUIU. 1 meant it, and I say that if the Texas deciielon is allowed to stand President Tilt Is beaten, Roosevelt could be elected." Most of the other Brooklyn men aid they would not follow Mr. Wood ruff and would support the Rochester platform. When the New York delegation met Mr. Woodruff again voiced his protest against the action of the national com mittee. His argument was long and healed. Mr. Uutler replied by pre senting a resolution of endorsement of the Rochester platform ami selling forth that It was the sentiment of the New York delegation that Mr. tan should be renominated. Mr. Hnrnes supported the resolution anil replied to' Mr. Woodruff with a sharp criticism of his com-. After an acrimonious discussion William Karnes, chairman of the New York state committee, was chosen to represent that state on the committee on resolutions. The oppo sition was lead by Delegate Prender- gast of the fourth district of BrooKi n. Of the 77 delegates present 9 voted for Mr. Barnes and five against him, while three were excused from voting.

Out of Texas he secured 20 of the contested 30 over the prostrate form of Colonel Cecil A. Lyon, who declared "you may de pose me now, but I will be back lour years from now when many of you will not." In Virginia, where the Issue was drawn between negro voters and the regular state organization, the presi dent received the entire contested delegation of 20. In the District of Columbia he won 2. The linish of the long contest hear ing was marked by incidents more Strongly indicative of the division be tween the Taft and Roosevelt forces (ban any In the preo coding days. Col, Lyon fought each of the Texas contest cases personally and was defeated in all but two of them. In the end he was culled upon to light a resolution for an investigation and reorganization of the whole structure ot the republican party in Texas. Presented by Thomas L, De vine of Colorado, II proposed la sub- c mltlee of three from the national committee io attempt a change in the republican organization of the State that would destroy the system of county representation described by the Taft attorneys as a survival of I be "rotten borough" methods of I ngland. Personal Contest Threatened, The Washington cases, almost the bust to engage the committee's atten tion before the conclusion of Its 10 days' work, were preceded by a threatened personal combat between Francis J. Honey and Committeeman Kennedy r North Dakota, which was prevented only by the interference of their associates. Final action by the republican na tional committee upon the contests from the states of Texas and Virginia resulted In the addition of 40 names io the TaH column of delegates, while four were placed in the Hoosevelt column.

'rom meagre reports that hav been received it is believed that the storm that struck Kansas City, caus ing the death of two persons and d mg damage amounting to many thou sands of dollars, swept to the south through Hates county where it left a trail of death and destruction. The path of the storm here was half a mile wide and live miles long. Hi tween Merwin and Adrian 19 persons were killed. At Creighton In Cass eoiintv two are known to be deiol while at Deeton In Johnson county two are dead and unverified reports ay others have been killed. After striking Merwin the storm took a northeastward course passing Sedalia. where the wind did much lamnge. In the country between Merwin and Adrian the storm came up suddenly nd .-wept clean its path through the northern section oi ine country.

MMY WERE KILLED INWESTERN STOBM nfflOiPUN Woodruff Finally and Irrevo cably Decides to Leave Taft's Ranks. By W. A. HILDEBHAND. Chicago, June 17. The delegation today ratilied the election of Rich- mond Pearson national commit. 9 ... ,i teenian. Members of the North Carolina del egation will meet Colonel Roosevelt about noon at the colonels invitation and it is possible that the state's 24 votes will be cast solidly for Hoosevelt, at least on the second ballot, if one should be necessary. The impression is growing that there will be some sort of test vote early in the proceedings and that the Hoosevelt forces will be successful in throwing out the dele gates whose seats have admittedly been stolen. a spirit oi optimism much more pronounced than has yet been di senable pervades the Roosevelt anks. Saturday night Boss Barnes felt confident he had beat Woodruff back permanently into the Taft ranks. Yesterday little Tim took his formal departure from the Tuft reservation and there is little doubt this will give Hoosevelt even without further de lections more than, 20 votes from the Empire state. This, with several de sertions from the Taft southern con tinent made It a Hoosevelt day. The atmosphere is tense and one expects to encounter dynamite and guncotton at every turn. On the sur face the conclusion is fully warranted that the much discussed Hoosevelt stampede has already been set in mo tion. From the Taft camp, however, comes the confident assertion that there will be reprisals and that cer tain delegates from Illinois, Maryland and probably other states will turn to 1'alt il the southern delegates in any onsiderablc number do violence to their instructions. No matter what buoyant and lem estupua campaign managers may say bout it, the situation, while niaterlal : improved from the Roosevelt point r view, has not greatly changed from that which has obtained. Neither Side an ligure a sale working majority on he first ballot. Both the TUft and toosevell forces are flirting hard and ontinuoualy with the LaFollette and uuimlns bands. Of course Itoosevelt would have a majority had he not icon the victim of carefully designed bbery. Several members of the temporary North Carolina colony met the Tar llecl delegation at the station Sunday night. There was no brass band, but Judge Robinson, who will have his little joke in all this rush of matter nd crash or worlds, said he wished the "Rogues March." F.D.

' ADDRESS DELIVERED BY THE PRESIDENT Dr. L. .B McBrayer's Paper Followed by Various Re ports Dr. Rankin Makes Speech. Special to The Gazette-News. Hendersonville, June 17. The Health Officers' association of North Carolina met this morning in the sec ond annual session and immediately began to carry out the arranged pro gram. There was a fine attendance, health officers from all over the state being present. The session precedes the meeting of the state medical so ciety, which convenes tomorrow, and there were more physicians present on this account. After the address of welcome and the response had been made, the pres ident, Dr. I j. B. McBrayer, delivered his address, which was full of interest and helprul suggestions drawn from various experience. This was followed b'y various officers' and committee re ports and a general discussion. The session was opened by a prayer by Rev. J. E. Ray, and then the ad dress of welcome was delivered by Dr. J. S. UroWn ol' Hendersonville and was responded to by Dr. W. S. JHankin, ec- etary of the state board of health, in the absence of Dr. Absher of Mt. Airy, who was on the program. After Dr. McBrayer had read his paper, the as sociation ordered that a copy of It be presented lo the state press and that It be distributed in pamphlet form. The members of the medicHl society ire beginning to come in and it is ex pected that there will be about 150 by o morrow. The PitwklcnCs Address. Dr. McBrayer spoke in part as fol lows (the address in full will appear iter) : . I congratulate (he health officers of North Carolina, and others interested in public health, on the convening to day of Ihe second annual session of the North Carolina State Health Offl- ers' association, in the beautiful city of nendersonviHc. I desire to express to you my appre ciation of the honor you conferred upon me by electing me to the high position of first president of your as sociation. And while I have not been unmindful of the honor thus con ferred, at the same time I have not failed to realize that this high honor irrlcd with it an equal amount of duties and responsibilities. You en trusted to my care and keeping for the that Is now closing, this infant organization still swathed in swaddling lothes. I sincerely trust that we will have abundant evidence here today that this babe has grown Into a healthy, vigorous, lusty youth, ready to do battle In the cause of public health, ami to take its place-as an important unit among the factors that shall soon make our grand old State the health iest and best place In all this world in which to live; and shall soon make our people, our children and our chil dren's children a "Race of God-like Americans, perfect in face and form and Intellect." There is an awakening of Interest among the people In regard to public health such as has never been known on any other subject. It is Impossible to calculate the potentiality of the energy that Is being expended today In the prevention of disease, and the perfecting of the human race. It has not yet reached its flood tide. The mnny congresses, commissions, socle lies, etc., referred to a moment ago, bear out this statement. It Is nec i isarj lhat this energy shall be direct ed in proper channels. In channels that will produce results. It would be fatal to our cause to allow this en ergy to go to waste. If this energy Is wisely directed It will only be a short lime until we will have all the money we need to prosecute our work. States, Including our ow n, are making appro, prlntlons never dreamed of a few years ago, and are ready to Increase these appropriations Just as soon as we show them that we are producing results with what they have given us, ami can show them Intelligently and speelllcally that we need more. The United States government has been doing some public health work through Its department of agriculture, which, of course, was never organised for the purpoae of Improving the bc:illh. and thereby lengthening and making more profitable and happy the lives of our people, but was or ganised for the purpose of protecting Ihe lives of our farm animals; and of protecting und making more proline our fruits and forests, and of making the seed wo plant more fertile. Hut the time Is coming, In fact la near at hand, when we shall have a department of health In iJr national government, with a accretary who is member of the president's cabinet. And I trust the North Carolina Blate Health i in leers association will at this io. cling puss a strong resolution en dorsing this measure that Is now pending before congreee. And when that bill, known an the Owena bill, or some like measure, is passed, and not until then, will our government liegln Continued on page tw
