NEW YORK, Nov. 1.

-New England will not have a favorite son at the next Republican, national convention. Instead of agreeing upon a candidate, the Republicans of this corner of the country will endeavor to concentrate their influence upon the party creed with a view to liberalizing its tements and thereby reuniting the party and restoring it to the path of progress in the firm conviction that here lies the goal of power. Friends of Senator Weeks of Massachusetts have failed: in their effort to rally New England states around him as the favorite candidate of that section. Because he desires the compliment, Massachusetts Republicans will probably give Weeks a formal endorsement, but already the party leaders are letting it be understood that such an endorsement is wholly complimentary and in no way binds any delegate on or after the first ballot. Maine Republicans are friendly to Senator Boral, or Roosevelt.

New Hampshire shows sentiment for Root and Burton. Vermont. which is always sensitive to the trend of New York politics has not yet centered upon any candidate, but Root and Borah and Burton all have their friends in this state, which serves as a sort of barometer for the nation by reason of its early state election. In Connecticut, the leaders, who are taking counsel with Mr. Taft, are for Root or Hughes, and in Rhode Island, the infinence of Governor Buckman will be in favor of a liberal Republican for the nomination, In Massachusetts Burton and Borah would be acceptable to a large number of Republicans, while Root has many followers in this state.

of course all the New England states would rally enthusiastically to the support of Hughes, should his name come before the national convention. Roosevelt is being forgiven every day by Republicans of New England who are drawn to him by the sturdy Americanism which he is preaching. New England is heart and soul for preparedness and against Germany and nowhere save in the border states is the Mexican record of the administration so unpopular. Hence the returning strength of Roosevelt in these parts. The disposition among eastern and southern states which have no orite son" candidate of their own, is strongly in favor of uninstructed delegations to the national convention, the belief evidently prevailing that the possibility of a "dark horse' stampeding the convention is by no means remote.

Whether that expectation will be fulfilled and whether Hughes or Roosevelt is his name, few are willing to forecast with any certainty at this time. But uninstructed delegations among states offering no favorite son candidates will from present indications hold the balance of power in the Republican national convention of 1916.

BROWN COMPANY Everything to Build With 406 N. 6th Ave. Phone 110 POSTMASTER AT PHOENIX IS BURNED TO DEATH C. B. Wood Cremated in Fire at Ranch Home, Resulting From Lamp Explosion.

PHOENIX, Nov. 1. Overwhelmed by the tumes of an explod-1 ing lamp, C. B. Wood, postmaster of Phoenix died, and his body was partially consumed in the ruins of his country house on the Black canyon road, near the grand canal last evening.

Warned by Mr. Wood's last words "Look out," and by the sight of fire bursting out of the window of the frail wood structure, C. L. Madison, renter of the ranch was able to res: cue his bedridden son from the room next that in which the tragedy curred. Madisen dragged the young man a short distance from the house, placed him on a cot, and rushed back into the house, screaming to men on the other side of canal, nearby.

As he opened the door. smoke and flames billowed out, and he was driven from the place, blinded, stunned, and compelled to stand aside and watch the fire rapidly spread throughout the building. Af this time, he had no idea the unfortunate man had not succeeded in escaping from the house. It was not until he had, with a half score of neighbors, attempted to forta bucket brigade te throw water on the fire, that Mr. Wood was missed, and the horrible possibility occurred to the group.

Mr. Wood was in the habit of visSting the ranch house frequently, to spend considerable time in his study. He had been in his room for some time yesterday afternoon. At about 5:15, he had called Madison, and had asked him for a lamp. Madison filled a lamp in the rear of the house and took it to Wood's room, leaving there immediately thereafter to attend to some chores outside.

Five minutes after he left the room, Madison heard the soft explosion that indicated the bursting of coal oil C. E. Tannehill, who lives nearby, and others, commenced to search the ruins. which had cooled sufficiently by reason of the fact the light frame building had burned clear to the ground -to permit the men to approach quite, closely. Buckets of water were thrown into the heaps of ashes, and soon the bones of a human were identified.

By this means, then, it became known beyond doubt that a frightful tragedy had taken place. Even until this fact was established, the frantic neighbors had continued to entertain the hope that Mr. wood had escaped, Friends of the dead man last night told of his trouble with his heart, and the surmise that he had fallen under the shock of the explosion, and had therefore failed to get out. was strengthened. Mr.

Woods was formerly secretary of the fair commission. Investigate Fire, PHOENIX, Nov. -An investigation was begun to determine the cause of death yesterday of C. B. Wood, postmaster, burned in his country home.

They notified Sheriff Forbes, but when he arrived, the boulders had been removed. It looked like an attempt to wreck a car.
