DECLfiREWITO
VERY LAST
Mo Compromise and No Quar
ter. Say McKinley and Dixon.
Opposing Leaders.
CHICAGO, June s.—War without
compromise and with no quarter was
declared today by the leaders of the
Taft and Roosevelt forces gathered for
the Republican national convention.
Congressman William B. McKinley, In
a peppery statement, asserted that
Taft's renomination was already a cer
tainty and virtually defied Roosevelt to
Visit the convention in person. No ter
rorization of intimidation on the part
Os the Roosevelt forces, he asserted,
Could change the result.
Senator Joseph M. Dixon, head of the
Roosevelt forces, who arrived during
the morning and went to the Roosevelt
headquarters tn the Congress hotel.
Issued a statement equally fiery.
He asserted that 'the talk of a
"Roosevelt bolt," which has been assid
uously spread by the Taft faction since
the politicians began to gather, was
pure "junk.” He declared the election
of Taft delegates in Ohio was cold
blooded theft and pointed to the differ
ence in the attitude of Roosevelt in the
Massachusets primaries and that of
Taft in the Ohio election as typical of
their political methods.
No Surrender,
Both Sides Say.
Both men agreed that there would be
no surrender, no compromise, in the
fight.
McKinley’s challenge to Roosevelt to
come to Chicago, saying that his pres
ence here would only help the cause of
Taft, created a sensation among the
politicians. That the Roosevelt men
expected the colonel within a week aft
er the committee hearings began, pro-
• ided the contests went against him,
an open secret. McKinley’s state
i >ent. It was believed at Roosevelt
1 oadquarters, would spur the colonel to
• determination to mnk“ the trip to
1 hicago in any event.
Congressman McKinley gave out his
statement after a long conference with
Senator Murray Crane, of Massachu
setts, one of Taft’s close political ad-
Senator Boise Penrose, of Penn
syhrania, whose machine was smashed
by Roosevelt in the campaign In that
state, and former Senator Charles Dick,
of Ohio At the conference it was de
cided that no concession would be made
to the Roosevelt men. and this decision
was received gleefully by Harry S.

committee, and Victor Rosewater, act
ing chairman of the national commit

The Taft leaders apparently had one
subject in view only—to defeat Roose
velt at any cost. The bitterness of
their feeling was expressed in McKin
ley’s statement, which virtually read
the colonel out of the party.

Pullman Car Row Reaches Court
‘ABUSED’ ATLANTAN SUES
George P. Howard, 1035 Peachtree
street, expects to show the Pullman
Car Company that Its conductors can
not abuse him with impunity, even
though the argument which provoked
the row originated In the difference be
tween $2 and $1.60.
In filing a $2,000 damage suit against
the Pullman company in superior court
today, Mr. Howard said the Interstate
commerce commission had passed on
his ease and awarded him a 40 cent re
bate. He had intended, he asserted, to
pocket the rebate and end the affair,
but the same conductor who held him
up for 40 cents proceeded a second
time to "bawl him out” in a car tilled
with passengers.
Mr. Howard alleged that he took a
Pullman from Atlanta to Oakdale,
Tenn.,, in May. 1911, and gave the con
the Taft leaders, would head their
forces w hen the committee sessions be-’
gin.
Taft Men Certain
Os T. R. Bolt.
The Tass men were certain today
that Roosevelt and his followers would
bolt. Although Senator Dixon asserted
that this was all a myth, the Taft men
evidently Intend to make ft an actuality
if possible. A politician high in the
Taft councils is authority for the
statement that the plan decided on Is
to oil up the steam roller and send it
straight over the Roosevelt men.
If there is to be a split they believe
this will force the responsibility on
Roosevelt.
Senator Dixon added to former state
ments that the re-election of Taft is
impossible, by stating that his nomina
tion was "physically and humanly Im
possible."
Asked if he expected to win all the
delegate contests. Dixon said:
“Did you ever see a man with 75
law suits who won them all? If he did
it would look suspicious to me. We
don't < ontrol the national committee
and it would be an insult to any one to
say so.
”T have come to Chicago from Wash
ington byway of Oyster Bay. My first
Interest was in the returns from South
Dakota. The fact that Roosevelt has
won another victory, electing all ten
delegates from the state by a plurality
of 16,000, is added proof that he is the
overwhelming choice of the Republican
voters.
“Indicates What
Voters Think."
“The voice of South Dakota was an
excellent example of what the folks
themselves think This makes the
twelfth state to Indicate a preference
for a presidential candidate by the ver
dict of the voters, and it has been an
unbroken line of Roosevelt victories.
Wherever the people themselves have
spoken Roosevelt has won. Tn the Re
publican state® of the North and West,
where the Republican party must look
for Its electoral vote, Roosevelt has
three delegates to Taft’s one."
Senator Dixon was asked whether he
thought Roosevelt would come to Chi
cago
■q don’t think he will come,” was the
reply.
Asked If Roosevelt would come if the
Taft machine were run over him, the
senator smiled.
“I don’t think he would preclude the
possibility of going to the moon," he
said.
“Is it true that there will be a caucus
of Roosevelt delegates before the con
vention?” the Roosevelt manager was
asked.
“I have never heard such a thing die
bussed," Dixon replied.
Taft’s campaign managers were re
assured today when the Alabama dele
gation arrived and paid a visit at the
Taft headquarters.

"That particular district ought not to
have any delegates in the convention,
anyway." said Major Barker. "The dis

of them no conventions were held. In
the county where the convention was
held only nine men attended. These
men nominated the two postmasters,
who have seen fit to bolt their instruc

Other members of the delegation who
called on Manager McKinley, expressed
the same view.
Senator Dixon issued a statement
claiming 617 delegates for Roosevelt.
He asserted that the Roosevelt forces
could absolutely count on this number
for the first ballot.
Congressman McKinley did not issue
any statement. He said he would give
out his figures tonight.

T. R. Expects Half
Os Contested Seats
OYSTER BAY, N. Y., June s.—Colo
nel Theodore Roosevelt presided at a
"political luncheon" at Sagamore Hill
today. His guests were Gifford Pin
chot and Medlll McCormick, who came
to Oyster Bay to confer with him.
The colonel was in a jubilant mood.
He declared that he had received re
ports from his managers In South Da
kota indicating beyond question that
he had carried the state In the presi
dential primary. Just as the colonel
was starting on his morning horseback
ride he was naked about interviews
ven out by Roosevelt men in Chicago
to the effect that he (the colonel)
w ould go to the seat of war next Wed
nesday, Roosevelt replied:
"When they say I am going to Chica
go that Is their own say so. 1 have not
made up my mind about going to Chi
cago yet and can not at this time.”
Although Colonel Roosevelt gave no
definite expression of his Chicago
plans, he intimated that if the national
committee attempts to thrash out the
contests over delegates in starchamber
sessions he would leave for the West
about the middle of next week. As the
majority of the members of the nation
al committee are still in public life,
however, the colonel believes that he
will get a "square deal” without going
to the front personally. Mr. Roosevelt
believes that one-half of the contests
will be settled In his favor In open ses
sions of the committee. This number,
he declares, would give, him the nomi
nation over President Taft.
