McCOIlMICK IIKXKWS AILE-(ilKXCK. Says Strong Movement in Illinois for Progressive Party. Oyster Bay, N. Y., July 1. Robert U. McCormick, of Chicago, who was leader of the Illinois delegation for Colonel Roosevelt at the Republican Convention, but who was one of the first to say that he would not follow the former President in the formation of a new party, came to Oyster Bay to-day with the statement that Gov ernor Deneen, of Illinois, who cast his lot with President Taft, could not carry his State on the Taft ticket and that he (McCormick) had come here to open negotiationswith the Colonel. Mr. McCormick intimated that he had come to Oyster Bay as an emissary from members of the Republican or ganization. "The progressive movement has developed more strength than I had thought at first." said Mr. McCor mick. "I have come to the conclu sion that Taft cannot carry Illinois." The Colonel was in high spirits over the turn of affairs in Ilinois as represented by Mr. McCormick. "It was a significant change," he said, "and you will see several more cases of the same thing in other States." CLEUKS'IX CONSPIRACY. Men in Employ of Treasury Depart ment Raised $1.00 to $10.00. Washington. D. C, July 1 An al leged conterfeiting conspiracy, hatched in the United States Treas ury only a few feet from the office of Chief Wrilkie, was unearthed by the secret service today. J. D. Atkins, a clerk in the office of the auditor for the Treasury De partment, was arrested here on a warrant signed by State Commis sioner Bond, of Baltimore, charging him with raising $1.00 notes to $10. This action followed the arrest in I Baltimore yesterday of Percy H.I Carman, a fellow clerk of Atkins, charged with the same offense. The two men are alleged to have worked in connection. Atkins, waiving formalities, left Washington tonight for Baltimore, where he will be given a hearing tomorrow before Commissioner Bond. Carman, according to secret service headquarters here, made a state ment, laying bare the scheme. Atkins, holding a $1,000 clerkship was formerly deputy collector of in ternal revenue for the State of Washington.

In connection with a call for a meeting on Thurs day evening, July 11, of Brooklyn supporters of Roosevelt, former Lieutenant-Governor Timothy L. Wood ruff to-day issued a statement ex Plaining why he is an earnest advo cate of the new third party. "Colenel Roosevelt overwhelming- the midst of the panic, when it was Bul of any sudden judgment passed my privilege to defend the then Re publican President of the United States against the bitter attacks made upon him for purely political purposes by the leader of the Demo cratic organization of King's Coun ty. That local campaigm resulted in a decisive victory for the Republican ticket. During the weeks preceding the convention it became clearer and clearer, until when we got to Chicago ther was no longer any doubt about it, that every conceivable means would be used to prevent Colonel Roosevelt's nomination. Why They Oposed Him. "Some were willing to resort to these un-American methods meth ods destructive of the American spirit of air play and a square deal be cause of their opposition to a third term; others because Roosevelt would destroy the business of the country I others because he would become a dictator and overthrow the Consti tution; still others because he was under obligations to President Taft, as though it were for Penrose of Pennsylvania, Crane of Massachu setts, Murphy of New Jersey, Mul vane of Kansas, Rosewater of Ne braska, and nearly a dozen other Na tional Committeemen who had been beaten at the primaries in their re- upon the high-handed acts of the Re publican National Committee and the discreditable work of the Republican National Convention. The aets of that convention have rendered it nec essary that a new party shall be formed, but the purpose the new movement will serve is one toward which the hearts of millions of men have been directed in the past few years. "There must be no mistaking the gravity or immensity of this task, but it will appeal to those who believe in the moral glory of American dem ocracy. Let the men who have this faith undertake the labor. That la bor involves the contest of every place to ve voted for by the people at the coming election, from Presi dent, Representatives, Senators, and Assemblymen to the lowest office up on the list."
