believe that because Chicacro waa an
mmense city, it should receive more
consideration than the territory to the
south, if it was to the best interests of
the country at large that the harbor
should be located at Indiana Harbor.
Even the matter of state, should cut no figure. Lake Michigan is a government proposition, and as such it should be
considered, regardless of state, municipality or community. The lord in his
wisdom created Lake Michigan and either by intent or oversight had placed a part of it adjacent to Indiana.
Tw Important Point. There were two important points
that should not be overlooked. The
first was to ascertain where the im
provements would best serve the country now and the second where It would
best serve It in the future. So far as he could see, Indiana Harbor and vicinity seemed to be the logical point
for lake and rail freight interchange both now and In the time to come. And
the point was to get the right place regardless of what Individual corpora
tions suffered or benefitted by the placing of the harbor. What was the best place for the Harbor?
The Board's Duty. It was the duty of the beard to as
certain the truth and having so de
termined, to make their reecommendations to the secretary, of war, accord
ingly. For hls part the speaker was
willing to pit the wisdom of the report
of Col. Zlnn and the arguments advanc
ed by the delegation from Indiana Har-
oor and adjacent cities, . against any
arguments that could be presented
from Chicago. '
Lee Opposed Indiana.
Henry W. Lee, editor of the Calumet
Record of South Chicago, expressed op
position to. the location jof the harbor at Indiana Harbor, claiming that there were sand shoals there.- Mr. Lee's
arguments however did not cut much figure as it is a well known fact thut some of the deepest draft boats In the lake heavily laden with ore have been making this harbor for years even before the government did any dredging there, with only occasional mishap. A number of Chlcagoans also spoke.. Col. Zlnn's report favoring Indiana Harbor is based on the natural waterway located there and throughout the Indiana Calumet region, and the railroad facilities for interchange of laVe and rail freight, and on the room for further development.
would have. majority of 103, and to the Taft men It was apparent the Taft supporters, would ba-ve a majority of only approximately 200. Developments yesterday, however, made it appear
that the Taft followers would have
even a greater majority than they first estimated.
Fred A. Sims, republican state chair
man, called the convention to order at
10 o'clock this morning, after which.
according to last night's plan, he will
turn It over to Mr. Wood.

The International Lead Refining Company yesterday took title to its
tract of 33 acres in Section 3 at One
Hundred and Fifty-first street and the canal. East Chicago. The International Lead Refining Company Is the same thing as the International
Smelting and Refining Company which

The company was Incorporated to" do
business In Indiana . under the 'new

of Morris S. Dean.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
deal was never actually closed by a

company has been going forward with
its plans, and the railroad companies having switch tracks leading to the
tract, have proceeded with their spurs.

(Special to Tub Times.) Hegewisch, 111., March 26. At a spe

cago city limits to the State Line a distance of a little over a mile a spirited , controversy arose over the part of
the cost of the Improvement to be paid
by the taxpayers. City Attorney Sam
uel K. Markman and President C. W
Whitney advised that 10 per cent of
the cost of the Improvement be paid by the taxpayer of Burnham as a whole and 90 per cent by the railroad and
property owners in Howard avenue. Mr. Markman advised that the Kensington & Eastern and the Outer Belt line had jointly agreed to pay 910,000 In the improvement and the E. J. & E. had
all its branches at a reasonable price.

Chicago, but merely wish the Improvements to which the local harbor is entilled anyhow. Mr. Whinery then Introduced Gov, Marshall. ,-.'-What OTarahall Said.
Governor Marshall said he did not come to tell the board their business.
He did not believe that a lawyer or &
politician could give advice to govern
ment engineers as to how they should
proceed with their duties. He did
wish, however, to impress on them the
fact that he believed Col. Zinn's report
was correct and the duty of the board
seemed to be to carefully weigh the
facts and act accordingly. .

Taft Men In Saddle.
That the Taft men will be in the ma
jority appeared probable from figures compiled yesterday, although the
Roosevelt followers were claiming 723
votes out of a total of 1,439. This
would give them a scant three votes
more than is necessary- to control,
while the Taft men were claiming 879
votes, or 159 mor than Is necessary.
The Taft men were claiming eleven
of the thirteen districts, asserting that
a majority of the delegations from all
the congressional subdivisions will be
for Taft, except those from the eleventh
and Twelfth districts.
Talk Develop Early.
There was more or less talk yester
day afternoon about the probability of the Roosevelt men bolting the convention and nominating their ' own
delegates at large, but it is asserted
that in the Roosevelt camp there Is sentiment against this.
Charles H. Campbell, national com
mitteeman tor Indiana in the Roose
velt organization, indicated in the aft
ernoon that he looked with disfavor on the plan of holding an independent
gathering. .'
"Do you think there is a probability
of the Roosevelt followers holding
Independent convention?" Mr. Campbell
was asked.
Don't See the Good.
Well, I hardly think ko: T do not
see what good it. could do do you?'
he replied.
The delegates from . the ninety-two
counties began arriving yesterday
morning, the Taft followers establish
lng headquarters at the Claypool hotel
and the Ttoosevoit adherents taking rooms at the Hotel English. " There were many pleasant and happy men In both groups. Around the Roosevelt
headquarters at the English the colo
nel's suporters were Identified by white
ribbon badges, some bearing the word
"Roosevelt and others the less digni
fled .word, "Teddy."
At the Claypool hotel the men who compiled the figures on the probable
lineup of the convention gave the
Roosevelt men 560 votes, while they
claimed 879 for President Taft. Thi
would give the Taft followers 319 more
votes' than those who heard the call o Roosevelt and would place the presl
dent In a comfortable majority.
The Roosevelt followers reduced
