E IS TAFT ORDER And the Roller Still Goes On Florida Is Strong for President Taft. (National News Association) Chicago, June 8. The first" effort at compromise made inside the rooms of the National committee got tangled up in the way of the steam roller and was crushed this afternoon. Then the debris was cleared, the throttle opened and the roller started forward. Taft delegates were seated. The compromise effort was made in the fifth Arkansas district when a motion to seat the contesting delegates together with those afterwards declared regular, giving each man half a vote was mowed down by a vote of 10 to 41. Taft delegates were seated from the Third, Fourth and Fifth Arkansas districts, after the committee had been in session a little more than three hours. The committee's action in refusing to consider a compromise was considered significant. The Fifth district was one on which both sides had some merit. It has been suggested as a last chance of healing the breach that is widening between the factions of the two sides of the party that seating of double delegations be resorted to, but the roller could not be checked. It flattened out the compromise and rolled on under the orders of the Taft directors. The cases of the delegates-at-large from Florida were then taken up. The Florida contest presented a unique tangle. There were three sets of delegates-at-large elected and three sets of delegates from the first district. Two of the delegations are Roosevelt men and one of them is for Taft. The six delegates-at-large from Florida were seated by unanimous vote in the National committee. MORE FOR TAFT. (Bulletin.) Chicago, June 8. The committee this afternoon seated the Taft delegates from the Seventh district of Arkansas. That wound up the contests from that state, and gave President Taft a clean sweep of the first two states that have been heard. A Bushsl of Children.

FLASH REAL MONEY AT DJU1R0W TRIAL Alleged Bribe Money Is Nonchalantly Displayed by Prosecutor. (National News Association) LOS ANGELES, June 8 A roll of bills aggregating $4,000, the outside one a $1,000 note, nonchalantly displayed by' Prosecutor Ford, focussed all interest in the real issue in the Darrow trial. Whence came these notes into the hands of the officers of the law? Who counted them out to Bert Franklin? If Darrow did, what was his purpose? The alleged bribe money was displayed by Prosecutor Ford when he sought to have Franklin show how he carried the money concealed in his hand, as testified, from Darrow's office to the spot where he met George N. Lockwood and Captain White. The bills were not Introduced as evidence because of objections of the defense. However, they served to arouse the inquisitiveness of Juror J. E. Golding. Golding was sworn in as a juror with a suspicion in his mind that the Franklin story and the Lockwood bribery were a "frame up." With the court's permission he interrogated Franklin, and his questioning, tinged with his old suspicion, caused a breathless sensation in court. Golding wanted to know if there had been a final accounting between Franklin and Darrow. Franklin said there had not but he and Darrow had had no dispute over financial matters. Golding wanted to know about the amounts he received from Darrow, the checks as shown by his bank book, credits making it seem that he had been paid about $500 a w eek. Franklin replied hotly that they did not, and the juror in turn showed signs of anger. Evidently Franklin's testimony did not raise the stock of his credibility any with the skeptical Golding. Judge George H. Hutton, presiding at the trial, was congratulated on all sides for the honor conferred on him by Hamlin University of St. Paul. In a telegram President Bridgman of the university announced that the degree of doctor of laws had been given the judge. Judge Hutton was graduated from Hamline in 1893. . REBELS AND WHITES BATTLE AT HAVANA (National News Association) HAVANA, June 8. A pitched battle was fought early today between white Cubans and negro rebels at Regla, across the harbor and only a mile away from this city. More than 100 shots were fired before the negroes were driven out by the whites, who climbed to the roofs and fired at the blacks in the streets. Two wounded negroes were captured, but others have been reported to have been carried away. The daring of the negroes in beginning depredations so near Havana is believed to presage an outbreak in this city. The Cuban Veterans association today voted to class as traitors all members who join the uprising. The veterans have been the most bitter political opponents of President Gomex. JOYS OF LIFE.

QUESTION VALIDITY OF THE SIGNATURES Jackson 'Township Remonstrance Case Now Before Co. Commissioners.

The commissioners this afternoon are hearing the case, the drys being represented by three local attorneys and an attorney of Cambridge City and the wets being represented by a local attorney and an Indianapolis attorney. It is likely that the hearing before the commissioners will not be concluded until some Ume Monday, although both forces are desirous of completing the hearing this afternoon. Shortly after the hearing opened. John F. Robbins, county attorney, raised the question as to whether the withdrawal cards could be considered valid, relating to the present remonstrance.

The county attorney stated that In his opinion this reading should be taken as meaning that the signers name should be considered on the present remonstrance but on no further remonstrance. The attorneys for the drys stated that they would take this matter up later. BELGIUM SOCIALISTS FOR GENERAL STRIKE (National News Association) BRUSSELS, July 8.

SIMS DECLINES TO CONFIRMTHE RUMOR Says He Does Not Expect to Resign State Chairmanship Just Now. (National News Association) CHICAGO, 111., June 8. State Chairman Fred A. Sims, who was reported last night in the lobby of the Congress hotel to be on the verge of resigning the state chairmanship declined to confirm the rumor this morning. Mr. Sims said he does not expect to resign just now. It is known however that he is sorely grieved because of the unfortunate developments in Republican politics, both state and national. Sims does not censure, publicly at least, those Indiana politicians on duty at Chicago, but at the same time, he is disposed to regard their conduct as fatal to the party generally. State Chairman Sims Is in bad with Joe Healing and Harry New because he refused to lend the powers of the chairmanship to the factional plans of Keating and New. He is said to have told them on numerous occasions after declining to being a party to brigandage, that he did not want the chairmanship in the Irst place, did not ask for it and was both ready and willing to give up if they were dissatisfied with the way he saw fit to serve the party. As soon as the Roosevelt managers heard the rumors of Sim's probable resignation they conceived the idea of capitalizing the impending calamity by proclaiming the resignation before the National committee takes up the Roosevelt contesting delegations from Indiana. Sim's decision not to resign at this Ume nips a coupe in the bud almost equal to the Washington Interview of Edwin M. Lee. MASONIC CALENDAR Tuesday, June 11 Richmond lodge No. 24, F. & A.
