IDEAS OF "LIVE WIRES"
PROGRESSIVES IGNORE
PLEA FOR COMPROMISE
Continued from Page One
fhe Perkins leadership had thrown off all
restraint and had determined to let Koosc
Volt Hdo to tho nomination on a wave of
unprecedented enthusiasm.
Itoblna said:
"First wo will tnke tho vote pn oUr pint
form t then we will have tho motion that
nominations Will be In order. There will be
no unnecessary delay, no move tb delay the
regular action of tho cohventlon."
Clreat cheers greeted this and then there
wero demands for Itoblns.
''This is no lime for speeches. It Is tlmo
for action," Robins said.
Jtoro cheers followed and then Itoblns
said:
"We will do then what wo cam to Chi
cago, to dd."
This caused pandemonium.
Secretary Dava read a notice telling the
delegates to get ready to go homo. Tho
notlco explained the railroad arrangements
and. nssurcd that the Convention would be
ended before 6 o'clock tonight.
The pollca line before the stage was re
movod as suddenly and as silently as It
had appeared. The Moose had como fully
Into their own.
Chairman Itoblns Introduced Secretary
DavJsto explain "the rules so that the con
vention could. If It desired, nominate with
out formality of rollcall."
"Do ybu want mo to explain the entire
parliamentary situation;" asked Davis.
"T do," said tho chairman.
HEADY FOP ACCLAMATION.
"Th6 rules adopted," said Davis, "provide
that Immediately following the adoption of
a platform, the nomination of a candidate
for President Is in older. Tho rules re
quire that upon a nomination for the prcs
Idency the roll must be Called. Somo ques
tions were put to me this morning with
reference to the rollcall being dona nWny
with. The only way this can be done Is to
rhove for a suspension of the rules. That
motion must be inade by n majority of the
delegation from one State and seconded by
the majority from the delegations ot four
States. Then tho President could be nom
inated by acclamation."
New York moved to suspend the rules tor
tho purpose at the proper tlmo of permit
ting a nomination nlthqUt rollcall. In,
dlaua, Kentucky, Idaho, Maine and a chorus
of States seconded the motion,
This done, Perkins began hla peace con
ference report.
"Wo went Into conference abotit half
past 9 o'clock last night," he said, "and
remained In Conference until about 1
O'clock. A general discussion took place.
'Winter we had been In discussion for
some time, the conferees of the Republican
party withdrew, and then camo back and
asked us what we thought of joining In
a statement recommending Justice Hughes.
"Wo replied by asking It each of the live
proposed signing stich a statement. They
replied, 'No,' but that that might be the
(round upon which we might make a sec
ond choice.
"The discussion was then adjourned at I
O'clock this morning."
"This morning they replied tb us that
each of the five had agreed Upon Justice
Hughes. Here Is the answer we handed the
Republican conferees:
"'In accordance with tha precedent set
bjr your committee we shall take pleasure
In presenting your report to the Progressive
convention.'
"Now tha question of second choice for
our1, party Is a bothersome question, from
the standpoint of fairness to the situation
and from the standpoint of the deepest in
terests of our country,
"Wo laid the whole, matter before CoIo;
ne) Roosevelt In several conversations!
Today we received a long telegram from
Colonel Roosevelt addressed to all the con
ferees, A copy of It Was taken by Mr.
Itooeevelt's secretary to the Republican
Convention.
"I will now read It to you and you will
sea why It had to be sent there that
way."
Cries of "Let the secretary read H" were
then, raised and Mr. Perkins turned the
telegram over to Secretary Davis, who read
It to the convention.
Following is the text of Colonel Roose
velt's telegram
To the conferees of the Progressiva

This Is really a convention of brains, for
these Ad men nro the ilvcst wires we hae

"We imagine that many of them are

industrial greatness of this city. They are
going to carry the glad tidings to the cor
ners of the earth. After this convention,
Philadelphia will take Its proper place
among the cities of the world."

PEELING GROWS
Gets in Deadly Work Most Effectively in Gloomy Weather Sometimes It Starts Day
Badly by Affecting Victim as Early as Before Breakfast Really, One Should
Take Care to Get Out of Right Side of Bed
Within most persons Is a grouch germ.
it usually gets In Its most deadly work
In gloomy weather. Often It crops out be
fore breakfast, even when the Hun Is
Bhlnlng.
It haunts the healthy as well as tho 111,
nnd often cropi out among Individuals at
most unexpected moments. Some como from
Morchantvlllc, N. J. It is Just as liable to
develop at a wedding purty as nt a Sher
iff's sale.
Pschologlsts arc of tlio opinion that the
grouch germ Is responsible for most of
tho trouble In the world In fact, they be
lieve It Is tho causo of the present dally
slaughter In Kuropc. They cite tho fact
that tho man who slew tho Archduke of
Austria undoubtedly had a grouch germ
which becnlrie Infectious.
This germ makes a pessimist of tho op
timist and puts more persons In u denun
ciatory spirit. (Note the stacks of resolu
tions attacking ever thing adopted by thou
sands of oganlzatlons ecry month.)
As a display of temper helps to eliminate
germs, It Is believed that n general denun
ciation dav on which every ono dlsintlcfled
with nnythliig In particular could rise and
dorioimco it would bo fitting.
Thoso favoring such a plnn suggest that
the denunciators assemble In groups and
pour out their vitriolic adjectives tit suit
their especial grouch. The dato could bo
selected by tho weather man, who could
very appropriately pick out tho gloomiest
day In tho jcar (rnlny preferred) nnd then
tho worklngmeii, lawyers, ofllceholders,
housekeepers, emplojcrs, stenographers,
ngents, mesicnger boys, athletes, etc, could
mobilize and assail their common enemies
with bitter adjectives.
Many i-ny that this would be Just as son
blbln ns war nnd Bllghtly less evpenslve.
Farmers rould direct their orations to tho
weather man. whose woik aB a prophet
brings llttlo profit to tho mII tiller. Front
porch critics could all sit out together
nnd express their opinions of Mrs. So-nnd-Ho'a
new left-over summer gown. The base
ball fans who know that tho umpire Is a
four-flusher, ox-burglar and confidence man
might direct their remarks In chorus while
tho victim Is compelled to sit and listen
Clerks who have to struggle along on go-ns-jou-plcnpp
lunches at Infamous res
taurants, where imi have to juy tho wntt
i esses' wages to get a shndow of butter,
could shake their fist at bucIi adjuncts or
tho morgue without Interference.
And tho fellows who havo to flit quietly
while being stabbed and wounded by bar
barous barbers, who give them nn cT
fcmlnate halrcomli ns a crowning Insult,
could gather and evplode their venom in one
mighty chorus Uven tho small boy who
spends most of his youth dodging soapy
washrags could place all the ndjuncts of
annoying cleanliness on a pedestal and
smash them to smithereens nnd bo happy
at least for a day In sonpless soil.
And tho animals, too, have tholr troubles.
They aio bothered by flies, bugs, etc. Somo

G0L0NEL, UNDISMAYED, TRIES
TO PREVENT M00SK STAMPEDE
Vire3 Between Sagnmoro Hill nnd Chi
cago Kept Hot
OYSTftll BAY, June 10. Colonel Iloose
velt was Undisturbed by the outcome of the
two ballots taken In the Republican
National Convention. KVldehtly the develop
ments were Buch as he had expected.
The big Job on the Colonel's hands today
and It had to be directed by wire at long
range was keeping the Progressives from
nominating him too soon,
The telephone and telegraph from
Hagamore Hill to Chicago -Were kept singing
with messages.
Only a remote possibility existed that
Colonel Roosevelt would go to tho conven
tion city unless It was to accept the
nomination of the Progressives.
Predictions were made herb that the
third and toUrth ballots In the Republican
Convention would be deadlocked, the game
of the Old Guard leaders being to force the
Frogreaslvea to nominate first. Although
the Colonel maintains hla silence, there are
plenty of political rumors current here. One
ot them was that it Justice Hughes was
nominated on tho Republican ticket and
Colonel Roosevelt was nominated on the
Progressive ticket the former, In view of
unlikelihood ot victory, would probably
withdraw, making It necessary for the
Republicans to select a new presidential
nominee. This would leave tha way open
for tha Colonel.
When the correspondents called at Saga
more Hill at ;80 for their morning audi
ence they were Informed that Cotbnel
Roosevelt would be In strict seclusion all
day and would not receive any visitors. It
was stated, however, by Walter J. Hayes,
acting secretary to tha Colonel, that a
statement Of ''tremendous Importance"
might be forthcoming later.
Colonel Roosevelt wis Up tha greater
part of tha night conferring -with his tup
porter In Chicago and It was after S
o'clock before he got to bed.
Ho left word that be was hot to be disturbed.
The Vounff Old Man
Probably nothing in .tho wbrld Is as
wholesoma ba seeing an old man thinking
himself young. Truly, a, man ti Only u old
as ho thinks. Sometimes, though, this
tendency amounts to almost a irmiy and
becomes wholly Irreconcilable, and beyond
all reason. A case la point is emphasised
in a postal card rcIYed by tha circulation
department of this Famous Old Dally from
sn J 1-year-old subscriber down-State:
''Dear sir Why can't you send m the
sporting extra instead of this t o'clock

HUGHES AND FAIRBANKS CHOSEN
TO HEAD THE REPUBLICAN TICKET
Continued from race One
Kroaslves might unite nnd prevent the catastrophe of n three-cornered fight for
the presidency.
The Republican leaders promptly rejected the plan nnd proceeded to the
third ballot at 11:55 o'clock.
Tho Colonel's message from Oyster Hay was n bombshell in the camp
of his ardent and rndlcal supporters In the Progressive convention. "Lodge
won't do; we will not follow the Colonel on that proposal," was the substance
of their protest. When the proposal came to the Progressive convention,
which went into session nt 10:40 o'clock, it was laid on the table, and the con
vention, after adopting the platform, proceeded to the business of nomlnnting
n candidate.
This startling development of the situation enmc about as a result of
a conference held early in the morning nt the Chicago Club by the Joint Har
mony Committee of the two conventions. The conferees could not ngree on
any candidate, and at laBt the Republican members suggested that Colonel
Iloosevelt himself be requested to name a man who might be acceptable to
the Republican convention and at the same time ngrccnblc to himself audi
his followers.
This proposal was immediately telephoned to Colonel Roosevelt at Oyster
Ray, and his reply came quickly,
PERKINS BREAKS THE NEWS.
George W. Perkins wns the man whq gave the first news of the peace
proposals. Coming from the session of the Joint Harmony Committee at 10
o'clock, he announced to a meeting of the Progressive State chairmen what1
the conferees had decided on.
Senator Smoot, for the Republican conferees, as he left the clubhouse said:
"It's all up to Oyster Day. Colonel Roosevelt will have tho last word."
LITTLE ENTHUSIASM OVER PROPOSAL
When Mr. Perkins entered the assembly room, where the various State
chairmen were assembled, and outlined the peace proposal, his greeting was
scarcely enthusiastic. The proposition did not meet with anything like approval
from tho State chairmen, for within a few minutes after Perkins entered the
room Bevernl groups of three or four chairmen emerged looking very much
disappointed.
"What has happened? Is it good news?" one of the chairmen was asked.
"Oh, we will nominate Roosevelt," was the reply.
Returning to the conference, Senator Smoot said:
"The proposition Involves the presidential candidacy alone and does not
touch upon the vice presidency. I believe it will prove acceptable to the Pro
gressive conferees."
GOVERNOR JOHNSON AGAINST LODGE.
Governor Hiram Johnson, of California, in a statement to the United Press
declared that Lodge would not be acceptable to the Progressive party.
"I'm a Progressive nnd Lodge Is not. Lodge does not represent a slngio
part of the Progressive party's faith. He will never do, We will tell the-
colonel so in language so plain that he, will understand it," said Johnson.
Gilford PInchot, of Pennsylvania, said: "Why didn't the Colonel select!
Penrose? He would be just as acceptable to n Progressive as Lodge."
Albert Dushnell Hart, of Massachusetts, close friend of Lodge and a iIpIp.
gate to the National Progressive Convention, said:
'There Is n disposition on the part of some of the State chairmen to
give the Lodge proposal sufficient consideration to see what the Republican,
convention will do with it. There is a bare possibility in my mind that the
Progressives would accept Lodge. It is certain that they will not take Hughes,"
Hope of the Hughes supporters that the Ohio delegation would desert
Burton and flop to the Justice on the third ballot were blasted when Governor
Frank B. Willis, chairman of the Buckeye delegation, announced that the Ohio
men would remain loyal to Burton, ,
KENTUCKY AND WEST VIRGINIA STAND PAT
The chairmen of the Kentucky nnd West Virginia delegations announced
that their delegations would stand pat on their fotes as east on the second
ballot. Kentucky will continue to cast 14 votes for Fairbanks, 11 for Hughes
and 1 for, nooaevelt. while West Virginia will give Surton 1, Fairbanks h
Hughes 4. Hoot 1 and Weeks 3. ' '
Efforts Were made early in the morning to call a caucus of tho entire New
York delegation, but the Root members dodged the issue temporarily.
Just before the convention sat Senator Weeks, Massachusetts favorite!
son, said: L
"I will withdraw my name from consideration is a nominee as soon as the
convention Opens." , .
After that the withdrawals came rapidly.

Other Hughes men echoed Hitchcock's

said Hitchcock. "Hughes will bo nom

going to be the outcome. The Penrose men
In tho TennsyUnnla delegation, It wns said,
had decided to Bwlng to Huchos. nnd irre.it
pressure was being brought to bear on tho
Hoot men In tho New York delegation to
come over.
The police icre trying hard to force the
crowd into tholr seats, but the effort was
futile.
Senator Smoot nnd McGrath, Roosevelt's
secretaiy, were said to bo closeted In the
rooms of the National Committee, upstairs
over the stage, but the leaders refused to
discuss what McQrnth was here for.
The entire Natlonnl Committee was sent

McGrath had brought, and It was submitted
to them for their decision. Meanwhile, It"

There was no disguising the tenseness

while on tho secoiid he had more than three
times as many, the Hepubllcan convention
adjourned ut 9 50 last night until 11 o'clock
this morning to give the Joint Conference
Committee another chance
After the second ballot Senator Penrose
moved to adjourn until today. This was In
accordance with the Understanding that had
prevailed all day among the leaders that
there should be an adjournment to give the
Conference Committee a chande, after
enough ballots had been taken to give an
iue uj urn preierences ot the Itepublicans.
But the- Hughes men violently opposed It.
They had gained heavily on the second
ballot nnd their blood was up. They wele
in no mood for a compromise with tha
Progressives, which might mean the defeat
of their candidate, and victory was In sight.
There was a yell of protest. Oregon de
manded a rollcall, Vermont seconded the
demand, and the vote was taken.
BUt thd Hughes leaders could not hold
their followers. They lost tha men who
had come over to theqi oh tho second ballot.
Oh the first ballot they had 253H votes,
and against the adjournment motion they
could only cast 3SW, only 33 more votes
than their original and naked strength.

The difference between the "right kind of
efficiency" the "the wrong kind" wns point
ed out today by A. A. Motherwell, of Flint,
Mich., speaker nt the second day's session
of the third nnnunl convention of the
American Drop Forge Association. "The
wrong kind of efficiency," ho said, "Is liable
to bankrupt any plant," He asserted that
his company, the Bulck Motor Car Com
pany, had effected a considerable saving by
watching the unnecessary movements of tho
employes. The movies, ho added, had not
yet been used as an "efficiency educator,"
but the time was coming, he believed, when
his company would adopt them for this pur
pose. Tho following officers were elected:
President, It. T. Herdegen, the Dominion
Stnmplng nnd Forging Company, Windsor,
Ont. ; vice president, T. W. Sleman, Union
Switch and Signal Company, Pittsburgh
