While he had not favored an early convention it had been forced upon him and he had made a fight and won it. That was all 'there was to It and he did not propose to indulge in recriminations, but would work diligently and faithfully to serve the people who had sent him to Congress. There'were Important matters pending in which Chicago and the West were vitally interested and he proposed to devote his time to looking after those interests, and meanwhile would not forget the needs of the United States in the direction of a navy. From this time on his attention would be given to his constituents.

March 7.Special.1 With a view to offset as far as possible the ZIcKinley influence in Illinois, which was generated by the Marquette club at the Lincoln birthday celebration, it has been determined to boom the Hamilton club of Chicago, and. if possible. make it the leading Republican organization of Cook County. Applications for membership in this organization were forwarded to Chicago today from fourteen of the Illinois CongresSiOnal delegation, the only ones who did not semi in applications being those who are absent from Washington. As an inducement for persons to join this club it was determined to do away with initiation fees up to and including March 9.

and the reports from all parts of Illinois Flow a to join the club equal to that manifested here among the Congressmen. It is only necessary to be21 years of age and a Republican to be eligible to membership in the club. which came into prominence at the beginning of the present session of Conress. wilen Speaker Peed was thi-i recipient of a gavel from that club. No Truth in the Story the Secretary Was Snubbed.

Washington, D. March Because Secretary Olney happened to leave the Cabinet meeting yesterday a short time before the other Ministers a story was start-et: he had been snubbed by the President for certain alleged utterances concerning the attitude of the administration on the Cuban question. Furthermore, it as announced there was a prospect of the Secretary of State resigning his portfolio and leax ing the adminicnration to shift for itself. I nquyy, however, established the fact there is not the slightest foundation for the yarn save that Secrtary Olney did leave the Cabinet meeting before his associates. This course, however, was necessary, because the session had been protracted far beyond the customary time and matters at the State Department required his attention.

Within five minutes after the Secretary of State left the White House he was followed by Ile rmon and Postmaster-O(n eral Wilson, but the gossips appear to have lost sight of this, or at any rate did not attach importance enough to it to declare that either of these Cabinet officers intended to resign. Those who are in the confidence of the Secretary of State say there is no friction whatever between the President and his Premier regarding the foreign policy of the administration. They say talk of a snub by the President or that Secretary Olney has the slightest intention of resigning his position during the present administration is nonsense.

San Francisco, March 7.The Indoor bicycle tournament and cycle show continued in this city last eight at the Mechanics' Pavilion, and judging by the enthusiasm displayed it has taken a great hold on the public. Fully 7,000 people assembled in the big structure, and the sport furnished by the racers eclipsed any that has ever been seen at an indoor tournament in the country.

Two world's records were broken. The two-mile race was ridden in 4:30 by J. E. Edwards, and the mile was ridden in 1-5 by William Yeoman. Charles S.

-Wells of the Syracuse racing team won the final of the two-mile open, and Syd B. Vincent woe the final of the one-mile handicap from the sixty-five-yard mark. The ten-mile inter-club cup race was won by L. S. Leavitt of the San Francisco Road club.

defeating Frank Byrne of the Imperial club, the hero of last year's indoor tournament. The riding of Wells, Tantau, and Edwards was of the highest order. Summary: Two mile openWells first. Edwards second. Time.

Victor Capture Eight Firsts and Like Number of SecondsRelay Race the Event of the MeetEnglewood Captures it in the Last Two Laps Teetzell the Hero of the DayWins Three Firsts and a SecondUniver: sity's Crowded. Englewood High School administered a crushing defeat to its Hyde Park rival in the dual track meet yesterday afternoon, the score at the end standing 70 to 27 in their favor. The meet took place in the University of Chicago's gymnasium, which was packed with a crowd of yelling schoolboys and a gay company of the fairest damsels to bEil found in the two suburbs. The sky blue of Hyde Park and the purple of Englewood were about evenly divided, but as the games proceeded Ilyde Park's color deepened into the deepest indigo shade. At no time was she in it with her sturdy opponent, who carried off eight firsts and eight seconds in the eleven events.

Teetzell was the hero of the day and made a record of which his school may well be proud. He took first place in the hurdles, the half-mile run, and the running broad jump, second in the 35-yard dash, and made the best run of the sixteen contestants in the relay race. The 10-lap relay race was the most exciting and closely contested event on the program. Eight men from each team took part, running in pairs for relays of two laps. Warren and Egbert led off, the Hyde Park man setting a hot pace and finishing his relay fifteen feet to the good.

Gould and Thayer followed, Gould retaining only two feet of his lead at the end of the two laps. Then Henry of Englewood put on a magnificent spurt, passing Boice and leaving the purple in the lead. Hutchinson kept up the good work, increasing his lead over Pingree by five feet. Bell gained a few feet On Hodgman, and then 11. Salmon and Hamill took up the chase.

The Hyde Park sprinter took the lead at the first turn and finished ten feet in advance. Ford incrased the lead in his relay with- W. Salmon to twenty feet, and then came Teetzell and Trude. The Englewood athlete started like a streak of greased lightning. On the first lap he caught I Trude, passed him, and finished a good ten feet in front amid the shouts and yells of the Englewood rooters, who had all but 1 given up the race.

It was beyond question the best relay race ever run on the 'varsity track. Trude did some good work in the thirtyfive-yard dash, winning the final heat after having run second in the preliminary. Egbert. Thayer, and Teetzell were the winners of the first three heats. In the running high jump Henry was put out at 5 feet 2 2-10 inches, owing to an tin, fortunate tumble.

Ile was allowed to make an exhibitiontjump and had the satisfaction of tying the winner, Thayer, at 5 feet 2 6-10 inches. 1 Flacken distinguished himself by putting the twelve-pound shot if feet 111: inches. Ile also won the standing broad jump at 9 feet 7 inches. Ile showed himself to be an exceptionally good man and gives promise of great things in the future. The pole vault was an exceedingly close contest between Higley, Leake.

and Dolce. It was finally won by Itoice for I lyde Park. The following is a summary of the events: :15 yards high hurillesEntries: 'Hyde Park. Pingree. Trude.

Mr. Corbett need not disturb himself. Later came the message that Mr. Corbett was about to -breakfast. The detectives hoped Mr.

1 Congreseman Lorimer on the Successor of 111-11112I in J. Campbell. Washington. D. March a.

It is my opinion the successor of William J. Campbell on the National Republican, committee will be Dr. Jamieson of Chicago. said Congressman Lorimer today. Ile is in every way fitted for this position, for he knows Illinois and Cook County politics thoroughly, and he would be in every way satisfactory to the Republicans of our State as a committeeman.

In my talks with members of the Congressional delegation they seem to be of the same mind as myself. and there is no likelihood of opposition from any quarter. Naturallyenough we have refrained hithetto from saying anything on this subject, because we did not think it proper or timely under existing circumstances, but the matter has been discussed privately here, and from the tone of the communications received from home it would not surprise me to see the choice of Jamieson made unanimous. It had been my intention to be In Chicago March le, but as far as I can judge there is no longer any necessity for my going out there at this time, and it may be I ttill not leave Washington until just before the State convention meets. As a member of the Committee on Post-roads and Postoffices I am interested in the appropriation bill now pending in the House, for there are several features relating to postal matters in Chicago to which I must devote my time and attention.

Therefore I have no idea of going to Chicago, at least until this postoffice appropriation bill is out of the way. There are a number of amendments which will be proposed to the bill in which our people are interested, and I deem It my duty to stay here and look after the needs of Chicago in the way of improved postal facilities." The Republican State committee will meet In Chicago this week to fill the vacancy on the National committee, made by the death of William J. Campbell. There necessarily Is haste in the business, because contracts for headquarters and living rooms for the delegates at the Southern Hotel during the convention remain to be signed. According to advices received from Congressman Lorimer in Washington and local sources as well T.

N. Jamieson will be a candidate for the place. Mr. Campbell, several years ago, gave a proxy as national committeeman to John EL Tanner. who took part in many important committee meetings.

Mr. Campbell emphasized his confidence in Mr. Tanner's judgment by giving him not only a proxy as committeeman. but a proxy for member of the subcommittee in charge et the detail of the Tanner was in St. Louis under this proxy when the ball was agreed on and the Sergeant-atArms of the convention and other officers selected.

All the detail of the work is familiar to Mr. Tanner and an the correspondence and other papers connected with the matter are now in his hands. Mr. Tanner says emphatically he does not care to be selected as Mr. Campbell's successor.

That he is peculiarly qualified for the place is well understood. Notwithstanding Tanner's refusal to allow the use of his name sentiment and kindly feeling for Campbell's memory creep into the matter. Mr. Campbell's life long friends. remembering the trust and confidence Mr.

Campbell reposed ha Tanner, will insist on his permitting them to press his claims before the State committee when it meets. Mr. Tanner says he will not have the office because he has enough of his own matters to take care of. Dr. Jamieson will get a good support front Cook County because the committeemen therefrom are friendly to him.

Fortunately or unfortunately for the doctor, a local paper Immediately after Mr. -Campbell's death printed the story of the doctor's candidacy. This fact of itself gave rise to some criticism, but the doctor was reported as having said the instruction of the district delegates in the Seventh for Maj. McKinley was a breach of faith which would be revenged throughout the State. These things have caused much discussion.

It is thought, therefore, Dr. Jamieson's chances for the National committee are not as good as they would have been had he not made the assertion with which he is credited. Tanner wants Jamieson, and will do what he can for him. Capt. Tanner has friends en the committee who will do anything and everything in their power for him personally, but they will not vote for Dr.

Jamieson. litoieball Ten in Given Preference Over Basket Hall Playerm. The University of Chicago basket team will not make its Eastern trip. The Board of Athletic Control yesterday made a decision to that effect. They give as their reason for such action that the basket ball team has not made a sufficiently good record in its games at home and that the baseball team should be the first by right of seniority to make an Eastern trip.

Four Eastern dates had already been made with Yale, Princeton, Trinity, and Temple. whicii will now have to be canceled. It was expected that the board would also take action on the rules adopted by the conference of Western college delegates held here on Feb. S. The matter was referred to a committee, however, and its decision may not be announced for some time.

Two new baseball dates have been se cured. both with the University of WisconSill. One at Madison on June 1:: and the other at Marshall Field on June '20. Negotiations with the University of Illinois have resulted favorably and two games have been definitely arranged. The first will be played at Champaign on April 11 and the other at Chicago on April 29.

House Takes Up the Subject of Special Mail Facilities. Washington, D. March 7.The House today entered upon the consideration of the eighth of the thirteen regular appropriation bills, that providing for the postal service. It is the largest of the supply bills, carrying over $91,000,000. Attempts were made to increase the compensation of fourth-class postmasters $620 a year, but points of order prevented.

The controverted items in the bill relate to postoffices, inspectors, and special mail facilities. Mr. Dockery Mo. opened the annual fight against the appropriation of $196,000 for special facilities on the trunk lines from New York to New Orleans. Similar appro- priations for this special service have been carried since 1877.

The bill also carries 00 for special service from Kansas City to Newton, and $100,000 for service from Chicago to Council Bluffs. Alis, the Queen, Changes Hands. New York.
