Scott for the VicePresidency TWO CENTRAL FIGURES Kentucky Gov Taylor and Gov Bradley are the two central figures of the Kentucky delegation which has quarters at the Continental The dele gation Is augmented by the McKlnley club of Louisville with a big band which keeps things lively Delegate W P Ross summed up the feeling thus Kentucky wants to compliment Gov Bradley by having his name considered for the VicePresidency After that the sentiment seems strongest for Reese volt If he win accept with uo definite choice among the other candidates TAYLOR NOT ANNOYED Gov Taylor is accompanied by his wife and the two keep to their rooms much of the tlin Members of the IKrty say the Kentucky authorities who hold a for warrant Mr Taylor arc following his movements from State to

and Congressman Lorimcr of Chicago said I have not conferred with the dele I gates but Vall hcr those with our party like Suppose Roosevelt stands he was askedWhile While Dollivcr lg h a candidate I will be voting for him he replied NO ACTION BY NEW YORK New York Tho meeting of the New I York delegation was a orl of magnet to the delegates from other States and I the corridors In front of the committee rooms were so crowded at 8 oclock that the local police had to bo called on to make a passageway for the New York ers The aim of the crowd seemed to i be to get a sight of Roosevelt for when I he came through the corridor there was p burst of applause A policeman ns slated him through and shortly after Senator Dope got a similar ovation I Ten minutes after convening the I meeting had adjourned until tomorrow afternoon at 4 oclock without any mention of 1 I VicePresidential 1 candl dates Oov Roosevelt sat nejct to Semi I ator Platt and chatted pleasantly Sen ator Platt declined to talk on the ulti matum Issued l by Gay Roosevelt I I I m I HAVE BURIED HATCHET I I On the list of selections of commit I I teemcn from New York it was noted bysome of thc old politicians nIl the conlllctlng elements In the party in the State are represented Frank fc > Black former Governor Is vlceprcsi dent of the delegation Gtn F t Green goes on the committee to notify the VlcePresldent of his nomination Frank S Wltherbee is the State representative rep-resentative to notify the President I George W Aldrldge is on rules Gen Vllllam C Wallace on permanent organization f or-ganization Lemuel K Quigg on reso 1 lutlons Senator Platt la spokesman of the delegation WHAT PLATT SAYS Senator platt went directly to his room after the meeting and a number of thc New York delegates followed him There were enough remarks I dropped to make evident that the I leaders of the New York delegation wore convinced that Gov Roosevelts statement had disposed of his candidacy candi-dacy To Ill Platt this question was proposed Cnn Mr Roosevelt be defeated for thc nomination 7 to which he replied Yes I think so More decidedly in keeping with this view of the matter were the threats of the less guarded of the delegation I that If Governor Roosevelt does not accept thc VicePresidency ne win not tI bo nominated for Governor and will be I retired to private life I WILL REGARD HIS WISHES I In Gov RooKpvelts room the atmosphere atmos-phere of doubt had somewhat cleared I away Coy Roosevelt himself said I 1 believe that the delegations that are really friendly to me will not vote I for me but will respect my wishes I TSvon as be spoke a delegation from Oregon said came In and the spokesman I I We want to a sure you that while j I ivo want your name on the ticket wo i will respect your wishes In thc matter j mat-ter The Kansas delegation the North Dakota delegation and the South Dakota Dako-ta delegation sent the same kind of messages showing that the tide toward a stampede was being partially stemmed However It was appreciated that the sentiment was not by any I I means crusncu out and 11 I might without with-out careful management still overwhelm over-whelm the unwilling Roosevelt PENNSYLVANIA FOR TEDDY Pennsylvania The Pennsylvania I I delegation met this afternoon and L I 1 I unanimously elected M S Quay na tonal committeeman from this State Col Quay presided and ho was also t made chairman of the delegation 1S I On motion of Senator Pemose thc S delegation was pledged to McKinley Chairman Quay said this was scarcely necessary but ho put the motion asa as-a matter of form Senator Penrosc then moved that the delegation be instructed in-structed fOI Roosevelt for VicePresi t dent State Senator C L Magee anti I Quay asked for a rollcall Congressman Congress-man M B Williams inquired whether Roosevelt would accept if Indorsed Senator Penrose said I can assure the gentleman and the other delegates that Coy Roosevelt will accept if the nomination Is tendered him Senator Flynn of Pittsburg anti Quay thought It rather early to tie up thc delegation To this suggestion Chairman Quay I replied that there was nothing bindIng bind-ing In the motion that It merely showed the preference of the delegation delega-tion The roll was then called result ing Roosevelt 52 Root 1 Long 1 Bliss 1 excused from voting 7 absent o > GREEN TALKS TO KANSANS Kansas Great interest centered at L the Kansas headquarters early In the day as Gov Roosevelt had promised to pay a visit to the delegation The Governor could not come however and I sent Gen Francis V Green whoso name is also mentioned for the Vice Presidency to take his place After be lug Introduced by Chairman J R Burton of the delegation Gen Green said WANT HIM FOR GOVERNOR Gov Roosevelt asked me to say that I he regretted his inability to be with you He nsked to be excused as he i is Just now engaged in an important I consultation From all dIrectIon comES the demand that he stand for VicePresident and It Is for him to m say Speaking for myself I will say that we want him to remain Governor of New York As VIcePresident hew he-w uld preside over the Senate and I only in mat contingency wnicn we would also deplorethe death of the President would be called on to exercise ex-ercise the larger functions for which ho is so well lilted He will be reelected re-elected Governor of New York we have no doubt as to that For that reason he sincerely hopes that he will be able to remain in New York and continue In the work he has taken up without being called to the VicePresi dency CAN DO GOOD IN NEW lORK Doubtless Gov Roosevelt would lie the unanimous choice IC he permitted 1 the use of his name But he can do a great deal more for the Republican party as Governor of New Yorlc No I one can tell who will be nominated but if It should come about that any other of New Yorks worthy sons is presented to I the convention wo would L hope that Kansas would give him the same hearty support it has given to Gov Roosevelt WHAT KANSAS WILL DO Chairman Burton answering for the delegation said they were all heartily desirous ot having the VicePresidency I so shaped as to bring strength and I that Kansas would join with New York In any action which would bo for thc best Interest of the Republican party as that was paramount to all other L considerations Mr Burton afterward summed thc feeling by stating that it Uooscvelt would stand he would have the solid vote of Kansas If he was out Dolli vcr would probably be the favorite FAIRBANKS DECLINES Indiana Senator Fairbanks was chosen chairman of the Indiana delegation dele-gation During caucus of thc delega tion tonight Senator Fairbanks announced I an-nounced that he would not accept thc nomination for VicePresident under any circumstances After Fairbanks the delegation Is for Roosevelt If he should not run thc delegations votes will be scattered Umong several 1 can didates |
