PiiiL.tnKi.pniA, June IS P peculation
and gossip today among National Com
mitteemen and other leading Republi
cans who are here has failed to reveal a
ryslallzation of sentiment arxund any
individual. Neither Senator Ilanns
uor - those who are close to. him give
any intimation that therehas been any
choice.
If you would tako us Into your confi
dence on this Vice Presidential matter
it. would simplify the situation greatly,
and give us bu opportunity to do what
(he President would like," said a promtr
n:nt Republican to Senator Hanna to
day, and the reply be made was: .
"You know . all that I know about
It." - . . '
Sena' or Banna's only observation on
the situation today was that until this
different delegations arrived and there
was.an opportunity for them to consult,
no conclusion could be reached, . '
Senator Piatt's talk of B. 3. O'Dell, bl
New York, caused a little flurry and
Dolliver Stock took an upward : turu

reported to be in the environs ot Pekln,

ncreasingly menacing ' : . ; .: v
' "The streets of Pekln,'' continues the
correspondent of the Dally Express, "are
reported to be seething wllbautl-forelgn
mobs, clamoring for the destruction of
the legatatlon and. the death of tbe
foreign mlnlhtera. Even with the Tsung
Li Yamen disposed to restrain violence,
it is highly Improbable that they wM be
able to bold them In check. For the
foreign ministers the. crisis will, arise
when the relief column comes in sight of
Pekln.,1. - - " 1
