TO WRONG BF ADMIRERS CHICAGO. -June 17.—“ We will cut them in two." cried Theodore Roosevelt today when reports of his lieutenants and delegates wore presented to him at a reception in the Eliza bethan room at the Congress hotel. The reception was a con tinuous ovation for the colonel. “We'll knock these old gentle ment through the ropes.” was the exclamation that came from the colonel again and again, as he shook hands with hundreds of his supporters. By adopting the unit rule, the Alabama delegation to the Republican national convention nullified the two votes of the delegates favoring Roosevelt, and so tied up the delegation that the two Roosevelt votes will be thrown to Taft. At the same time the Alabama Taft forces were strangling the two Roosevelt men, the Oklahoma delegation refused, by a vote of 18 to 2. to adopt a resolution bidding their entire dele gation to stand behind any nominee selected by the convention. This was the first attempt by the Taft forces to bind the dele gates against a bolt, by using the famous Conklin resolution of 1880. when President Grant sought a third term nomination. Senator Dixon announced this afternoon that thirteen more Taft delegates had “flopped” to the ex-president. He stated that nine were from South Carolina and four from Georgia, making a total of nine who had deserted the president in the latter slate. 'l'lit'se developmenis. with the statement of his manager. Senator Dixon, that a careful final check of, the delegates this forenoon showed that Roosevelt would con trol the convention at its opening by 42 voles, were incidents that lent to the intense excitement with which Chicago is charged on .th,' day preceding the calling to order of the most important national convention .in many dec ades. Crush Almost Too Great for Colonel. Late in the morning delegates and alternates filed into the Elizabethian room at the Congress hotel for a con ference with Roosevelt. Although it was positively stated that no one ex cept delegates and alternates would be admitted, some outsiders were allowed to go into the room. When the colonel dashed into the room behind a wedge of guards it was packed to suffocation. "Don’t let any one else in,” shouted the colonel: "not another man. I want to meet these men." Roosevelt stood at the Peacock alley entrance. Beads of perspiration were on his forehead. "Let 'em come,” he shouted into tha ear of Frank Knox, the door tender.. "I'm ready.” R R. McCormick was one of the first men in line. He presented the facts from Illinois. "Colonel, we are 56 for you on ever) proposition.” he said. “I just left the meeting of the Illinois delegation and I can assure you of that fact.” “We 11 Cut Them in Two.” "Fine, fine," exploded the colonel shaking McCormick's hand like a pumj handle. “Believe me, Mr. McCormick we will cut them in two.” Between McCormick and Govern®! Dr-neen in line were several of the Illi nois delegation. These men shook the colonel's hand cordiallv "Fine," he kept exclaiming so loud that he could be plainly heard all over the big room now Jammed to its limit. Bang! went a couple of flashlights within ten feet of where the ex-presi dent stood. ■Woopee!” he exclaimed. "Let ’er go! That's the spirit!” The West Virginia delegation came next in line. “We're for Teddy, ever ready. West Virginia.” roared the men in line. A smile showed all of the colo nel's front teeth. "Knock 'em over the ropes; knock 'em out!" he shouted. "Great pleasure to see you gentlemen, and I want you to know that we've got 'em going." I'he next few men in line were friends. "By George! By George!” cried Roosevelt as he shook hands with sev eral men whom he knew. ’Tm delight, ed to shake hands with you gentlemei today. This is fine —fine." North Carolina came next in line. We re for Teddy, you bet.” cried the leader in line. “North Carolina is ail right.” replied the ex-president. At this point the crushing crowd out- side forced a side door to the room. "Here, here,” cried Colonel Roose velt.' "Don't let another man in. I can not shake any more hands. He broke through the line before him and rushed across the room. “Shut the door.” he commanded and the door was shut. Roosevelt stepped back into the line. He shook bands with more than 500 and there were thousands more wearing badges of one sort or another who tried to get in. The Oklahoma delegation made con siderable noise. “Ob you Teddy,” shouted the first delegate as he shook hands with the colonel. "All right, by George." exploded the ex-president. “Oklahoma Is the stat and we'll carry it In the fall. Things are going fine, gentlemen, and well knock those old gentlemen over the ropes.” Next came Texas. Colonel Cecil Lyon, who was flattened out by the Taft steam roller, led the line of the Lone Star state. “We'll turn the state over to you,” said Colonel Lyon. "Ah. the Lone Star state.” replied. "I'm for you, gentlemen, strong.” Next came the Maryland men. “We are for you strong." cried the leader of this delegation. "Will you be tor me on temporary chairman?” asked the colonel. "You bet we will,” was the reply. ■'That Is the way," he cried. "Knock rhtm over the ropes, boys." Minnesota came next. "How do you feel?" asked one. “I'm right up to the handle." he shouted. "Right up to the handle and I’ll stick to this thing Jo the limit,” “How does the thing stand?’ asked the next man who gripped his hand. "We’ve Got 'Em Going And No Mistake.” "We've got 'em going and no mis take.” was the explosive reply. “We'li knock those old gentlemen out and no mistake." Then were presented the two women deliegates from California, the only women who will have seats in the con vention. When the colonel saw them he looked inquiringly for a moment. “These are women delegates and they are for you," cried a man in the crowd The women smiled and extended their hands. "I’m glad to see you, ladies." saluted the colonel. "Ladles. I am strong for woman's suffrage, and it is a pleasure to set such progress." The women were hurried on with the steady stream of struggling crowd of humanity by the colonel. "I’m from Washington,” shouted a man who came next. "They stole the state from us." "Don't you worry, sir," came the re ply. “We will put It over those gentle men easily, but, say, did you ever see such a naked theft as that in Wash ington?” The crush seemed to grow grea’ again and Colonel Roosevelt again stepped from his place in the line to see that the doormen and other guards were keeping others from rushing into the room His face was flushed and Continued on P»ge 2. Girl Reporter **Calls** Newspaper Man's Bluff And Becomes His Bride Miss Mary Carter and Rogers Winter Are the Principals in a Night Wedding. Miss Marj Reynolds Carter, of The Constitution staff, went to Trinity church last night, to write a story for her paper. Rogers Winter, of The Journal, covered the same assignment. A few' hours later they were Mr. and Mrs. Winter. Mr. Winter had known Miss Carter for several years. They were rival re porters In Augusta until Miss Carter came to Atlanta two years ago and began doing the “court house run” for the morrting paper. Mr. Winter landed a job on The Journal as soon after ward as he could. Since then, he says, he had been trying to persuade Miss Carter to become Mrs. Winter. Last night he gave up persuasion and tried a bluff. Leaving Miss Carter at the church, he went out to Ordinary Wilkinson’s home and got the license. Then he came back to towm, invaded The Con stitution office, found Miss Carter busy on her story, and exhibited the license. That exhibition of nerve-made good. They went out and woke up Dr. J. B. Robins, pastor of Trinity church, and were married. Mrs. Winter went back, to her work on The Constitution today and her husband resumed his news gathering for The Journal. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. William Everett Rushing, of Millen. Ga. and the bridegroom is the son of Rev. L. P. Winter, of Grantville. RAC E S RESULTS VALLEYFIELD. QUE., ENTRIES.
