2 Wall Street, Having Dictated Chairman of Republican Convention, Tries to Repeat at Baltimore LEWIS SEES AMMUNITION FOR ROOSEVELT IN THE CHOICE OF PARKER Progressives Informally Decl are for Ollie James as Keynoter: Will Not Stand for New York Judge. By ALFRED HENRY LEWIS. BALTIMORE. June 24.- This is true talk. For which reason it should be .put in print and «m regard. It chanced that 1 was present where roundly twenty men were gathered to gether. AH of them were Democrats. ■ ® all of them 'progressive." all of them J', of leadership sizes. > ®. The meeting was Causal; it hadn’t been ''called.'' The men weir various- t Ij front Colorado, froth Kentucky. from , the Dakotas, from New York, from L Georgia, from Arizona, from xlalianci, y, from Nebraska, from Oregon, from sw every angle of the party, from every jJL. corner of the country. Most of them i were delegates who .will sit In tomor row's convention. Many of them hold high offices in the nation or th ir sex- L, eral states. fi. While the meeting was t hanre-sown. the one subject considered was poli tic* —the coming convention —Dentoi- i, racy—chances in November. Most of ■; U, all. Parker for temporary chairman wits considered Bryan's objections to Park er were by some regretted, by other resented, by a few denounced and by a 111. few approved. In each instance the argument was the same The Bryan vb.tctions were regretted or denounced for the reason not that any one present believed the choice of Parker a good ’ll. on.—f° r non,> but that in making his objections Bryan assumed a lend fiship of party which non? present w.c ready to consider. Bryan among the tw< nty present had friends, hut no fol lowers. Talk Turns to Parker. Having delivered themselves con cerning Bryan and his evident efforts to trouble the waters for peanut ami personal ends, the gathered twenty took up Parker and that temporary chair manship. Let me tell the tale in <pms tlon and answer fashion. Some one s'K, would put the query and others'would . . reply to it Who suggested Parker? Mack, of New Yotk. Who was Mack.’ Was he acting for himself or others or both'' Mack top - resented New York state on the Detno cratic national committee. This was by consent and preference of Murphy and Tammany Hall. Wanting the fa i. xor of Murphy and Tammany. Mack ig ” as national committeeman wouldn't last as long as a nint of whisky at a barn raising. The Patket suggestion coming through Mack was really made by Murphy and Tammany Hall Why should Murphy want Parke! ' Mote a dozen spoke at nnce Murphy wk,-.. Iff the sense personal didn't care a SS splinter for Parker. While Murphy told Mack what lodo, those behind Murph' p told him what to do. ' And who were those behind Murphy".'' Those men who made up the Murphy mind and settled the Murphy prefer ences. and through Murphy, and next through Mack, in the selection of Park er. purposed striking the keynote of | t Democracy in the coming campaign. How the Talk Ran. Wall Street controls Murphy just a- I' controls Banes. Wall Street want'' . ISA Root as chairman over the Reptibll- ' ■R cans. Wall Street wants Parker a chairman over the Democrats Thin Is absolutely no teal difference between IKg,' Root and Packet Both are \ e-\ alm lis. lawyers. Both ate the servants of Big ■ !. Business & Mack had put it upon the ground of a ft' rightful compliment to Parker In re "■ L, tort it was |h Inleii out that this- was no R*" lime f<»- compliments Tit. place was Important It could b? used to accom plish evil or good Th? gavel of the coming convention ought not to he disposed of in n tneie spirit of flattery | Mack had also put bls Pai her recoin- i mendation upon the argument that Parker had once been the party's can- J. didwte sot president As against this, it iff- was set up that so too. had Biy.ui ben I tit? party 's candidate fm president.

BALTIMORE, June 24. —Tile Georgia delegation to the Democratic national convention, after a trip marked by the near-arrest of James R. Gray, news paper publisher of Atlanta, Ga„ as Tom Eelder. awoke in the Monumental City today ready to take a big part in the great gathering and enthusiastic in be half of 0.-ett I'ndcrwood. Just why editor Gray' was picked out lor the Atlantan whom Governor Blease, <>f South Carolina; wants to see so badly, is a mystery unless it lie that as.it Vt'ilsonite he was so conspicu ous among the Cnderwood boomers. At tt.y rate, at Seneca, S. <'.. the first stop the < (invention's special made, a large 'rd-fatvil gentleman in plain clothes climbed aboard the train and a.ntmm< cd that he was the sheriff of the comity and had a warrant for the u rest of one Thomas ■B.

"We do not believe that theie will be any trouble. We are de pending upon Mr. Bryan's interest in patty success that he shall not provide us with trouble. It would accomplis'n nothing "It is not to be understood that there is tn he any steam roller program on the part of the national committee nor on the part of any one else.

"The nominee for president must be selected with an eye singly to party success in November and as a result of the deliberate thought of the rank and file of the Democracy of the country. Nothing must be forced by anybody and nobody that we know anything about is trying to force anything.” A member cf Mr. Sullivan's entour age said that Taggart, Sullivan and Murphy, of New Yotk. had mapped out a. harmony program and that if the program were broken they desired matters to so fall out that Mr. Bryan would have to assume the responsibil ity for the break. Tariff To Be Chief Issue BALTIMORE, June 24.—Conferences were resumed today on the platform which the Democratic national conven tion will adopt. From the outline of the various planks now available it is plain that the tai iff w ill be the chief point on which the party will take issue with the Republicans. The tariff plank will follow closely that embodied in the Denver platform, which declared for a gradual reduction to a rev,nite basis and immediate and material reductions in the necessaries of life, especially upon such articles of American manufacture as ate sold more cheaply abroad than at home. "The trust” plank will be devoted in the main to a declaration that congress should make amendatory legislation to make tite Sherman anti-trust law mote tffective. A vigorous enforcement of the amended law will be insisted upon. Approves Money Trust Probe. A joint resolution by congress pro viding for the direct election of United States senators will be indorsed. The action of the house of represen tatives in starting a thorough investi gation of the “money trust” will be strongly indorsed with insistence upon the passage at this session of congress of the I’ujo bill giving greater visitorial powers over national banks. The work of the Aldrich national monetary commission will be rejected in so far as it provides for a central bank, out certain of the commission's recommendations will be.indorsed. Indorsement will be given the anti injunction bill passed by the house of representatives. Legislation will be promised providing for jury trial of all ( uses w'here there is direct contempt of court. May Oppose “Third Term." Other plunks which may find tbei l ' way into the platform are: Declaring for regular increase of the navy, probably the construction of two battleships a yeat Improvement, of harbors and rivers. Favoring a national public health bu reau. A»plank ha> also been proposed de claiing against a third term for presi dents. The suffragettes are trying to nail In a plank declaring in favor of woman's i ights. The platfot m is to be short, sharp and incisive.

TITMLE DPPDSE HADLEY INEODRI Plans of New Party Go Or, Deneen, in Illinois, Also To Be Given a Race. CHICAGO, June 24. —Organization oi Colonel Roosevelt's third party went on a pace today with the drawing ur of tickets in half a dozen states anc the pledging of leaders to stick with the former president “to the finish." Crowds and enthusiasm were mark cd around the colonel's headquarters ir the Congress hotel. Also George W Perkins, director of the Internationa Harvester Company, and Medill Mc- Cormick. were on hand and smiling, as suring that the bills of the new party would be paid. Declarations by Governor Dcneei and Governor Hadley, the later oru of the colonel's original seven, that each would stick to the regular party, led the Roosevelt progressive or “bull moose" party organizers to determine to put independent nominees for gov ernor in the field in these two states. In California, Kansas. West Virginia and other states it was believed the Roosevelt strength was such that the regular ticket could be thrown under the bull moose party column. At the conference the former presi dent impressed upon his followers the point that the new party was not to be the vehicle of "sore heads," but rep resented a genuine progressive move ment. The ex-president assured his back ers that the .new party has a distinct fight of its own. He alluded to the sit uation in the Democratic party and im pressed upon his leaders that the Pro gressive parjy may expect a strong alignment from the Democratic ranks if the Baltimore convention fails to re spond to the progressive call of the country. Hopes for Support From Democrats. While he Is not banking on what may come out of Baltimore, he is alert to the keen advantage he would de rive if the Democrats fail to put up a progressive to run against the reac tionary Taft. Roosevelt is promised the support of many influential pro gressive Democrats—so it was said at his looms—ls the Baltimore conven tion picks a retrogressive for its can didate. The Roosevelt campaign Is to be managed by Governor Hiram Johnson, of California. Besides the governor, whose strength ip the far West was the impelling motive for put ling him at flic helm, will be seven other pro pressives. Among them will bo Fran eis J. Honey, of San. Francisco, and Judge Bon B. Linsey, Democrats, of Denver. Governor Stubbs, of Kansas, who has plunged into the bull moose party with a whoop, will be another to help guide the new political ship. While the remainder of the gov erning council has not been picked, it is rumored that Governor Glasscock, West Virginia. Senator Cummins, of lowa, and Governor Bass, of New Hampshire, will be in the list. Red Bandanna Flag of New Party. “The new party." said Colonel R'■ ( ».$p • velt, in talking today, "is intended to take a distinct place in the affairs of the country. Ido not want it a party for progressive Republicans alone. H must take in all m?n who feel that the progressive principle’ are to be car ried out." The red bandanna handkerchief, as a sign of the common people, has been adopted as the Roosevelt party flag and at a conference meeting yesterdax many supporters of the movement ap peared wearing the handkerchiefs about their arms. Alice Roosevelt Longworth appeared at the meeting wearing one on her hat. Hadley Chooses to Stay With G. O. P. JEFFERSON CITY. Mo.. .Tune 24. On his return from the Chicago con vention, Governor Hadley declared his detei mination not to join Roosevelt’s third party movement. "I believe I can render more service to the people as a member of the Re publican party than by Joining in the formation of a third party.” he said. "While I hax< in no way changed my mind as to the correctness of that for which I have contended. I undertake to say that no political party ever did. or ever will exist in which at times, mon will not use authority unfairly, and to accomplish selfish and improper ends. "In mx opinion, the best way suc cessfully to tight such men and meth ods and also tite best way in w hich lo fight for correct principles o f govern ment Is within the pat ty rather than b leaving it. "There ".ere som" planks which we • omitted from the platform which I should like to have seen adopted, b it there will be found.
