Chicago, June 5--The arrival in Chicago today of nearly all of the delegates to the Republican conven- tion confirmed the impression that has existed for several days in regard to the strength of the movement in favor of Associate&Justice Hughes. Strong Hughes sentiment, popped out plainly not only in the uninstruct- ed delegates, but in groups that are * pledged to favorite sons. Roosevelt's Friends Lose Hope The disclosure of this feeling among the delegates has greatly increased the chances of the Republican conven- tion naming the juror. At the same time has come a corresponding let- down in the talk of Colonel Roosevelt as the possible Republican nominee. In fact Mr. Roosevelt's lieutenants are now nearly convinced that it will be impossible for him to wrest the nomi- nation from the Republican conven- tion. They have not given up the fight and do not intend to until the last minute, but they are chiefly con- cerned now in finding a way to bring about harmony and at the same time save their own dignity. Whie it would seem that little else than a miracle could change the out- look for Mr. Roosevelt's nomination, there is no disposition on the part of the Republicans to minimize the power that he wields in the present situation. Mr. Roosevelt will practi- cally dictate the important planks in the Republican platform and his is likely to be the controlling voice in the selection of the Republican nomi- nee. Roosevelt Expresses no Preference What Colonel Roosevelt's preference is in regard to a nominee barring him- self was as uncertain tonight as it has been at any time since the Re- publicans and the Progressives began to arrive in Chicago. Many confer- ences were held today .between Pro- gressive and Republican leaders and between the Bull Moose lieutenants and the Republicans but tonight the situation was as badly muddled as ever. The Republican leaders here in- sisted upon Hughes or some candi- date from the favorite son group. The Roosevelt followers were standing loyally by the Colonel and state that Hughes could not be considered by them until he had made a statement that would show his views to be in (Continued on Page Six) MEMORIAL PLAN REJECTED Senior lledics Vote Against Proposed James Burrill Angell Fund The senior medical class at their last meeting decided, by almost a unanimous vote, not to join the other senior classes in the proposed James Burrill Angell Memorial. This was the second time the proposition had come up before the class for discus- sion, the first time being about six weeks before the consensus of opinion was so strong for the combined me- morial, andit was hoped that the feel- ing had changed in the meantime. The medics have not definitely de- cided as yet on their memorial, al- though it has been proposed to buy something to be used in the Univer- sity hospital. GOVENOR WHITMAN TO MAKE SPEECH NOM)INA'TING HUGHES Chicago, June 5.-It is settled that Governor Whitman will make the speech -placing Justice Hughes in nonm- ination. The opposing faction of New York delegates have agreed not to quarrel over this point, and the Hughes men from other states are quite willing to let the New York ex- governor represent them on the plat- M1RS.

Little Rock, Ark., June 5.-Three persons were killed and heavy prop- erty damage was caused by a tornado that swept over Hot Springs, Arkan- sas, this afternoon, according to dis- patches reaching here. A church was demolished, a skating rink blown down and the electric light plant dam- aged. The city was without light or power. SENATOR LODGE CONSULTS PERKINS REGARDING PLATFORL Chicago, June 5.-Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, who will probably be chairman of the reso- lutions committee that will draft the Republican platform, arrived here to- day and immediately entered upon a conference with George W. Perkins. The question of the platform was dis- cussed. It is the supposition now that Colonel Roosevelt will be consulted in great detail in regard t.o the platform's declarations and that they will be made the chief basis of bringing the Ibot 1 III F Deni to sle 14 Firewor)1kN sIic and II lum inated Float Parade P 0 4i US T AW'S 7 :30 O'C LO'K Fireworks, music and illuminated river parades of canoes and floats will mark the annual Water Carnival to 1: ierivCI by the University Boat club Saturday evening. Following mneeting of the heads of committees Sunlay it was announced that both the Varsity hand and the University Glee club would furnish the music. The fireworks display, which is claimed to be one of the best that has ever been given on the river, will take place inmnediately preceding the parade of floats. A contract has been closed with a Toledo fireworks firm who assures those in charge that the display will be first-class in every particular. The carnival will begin promptly at 7:80 o'clock and will be held in the vicinity of the first bend in the river above the boat house.

Three of them, Mrs. Lucile Pryer, '1u, N. Earl Pinney, '16, and Malcolm MacLean, '16, played in "The Servant in the House," presented last semester. The plays to be given are "Riders to the Sea," a powerful tragedy by John M. Synge; "The Shadow of the Glen," a humorous sketch by the same author; and the "Land of Heart's De- sire," in which W. B. Yeats has pic- tured the longing of a young Irish bride to go to the land of her dreams. The productions are under the di- rection of Prof. R. D. T. Hollister and Dr. Louis Eich and every effort is being made to make the acting, stag- ing and costuming as nearly perfect as possible. Rehearsals have been carried on almost daily for several weeks. Properties for the three Irish plays have been planned and collected by members of the casts. The furnish- ings will represent the interiors of VOTING WOMEN IN PARTY CONVENTION OrgizeN ulinaI Boddty to Seenre aIlot for Sisters in tither states i EkElT IN 1('laST4)N E T HlE A TE R Chicago, June 5.-The voting wom- en of 12 states, encouraged by delegates fri neary e ery state in the union, who crowded the orchestra and bal- cony of the Blackstone theater, met in convention tonight to form the Na- tional Women's party to secure the ballot for their sisters. The party started off with the blare and bizarre effects of a regular party organiza- tion. The permanent organization of the arty was completed tonight and tomor- row the platform committee will pre- sent for the approval of the women vo- ters the first platform of the first wom- en's party of the world. It will pledge about 4,000,000 voting women to with- hold their support from candidates whose party does not stand for the federal amendment as well as pledge them to discharge party affiliations of their own until all the women of the country secure the privilege of vot- ing. EXTENSIVEALTERATIONS PLNNED FORMAJESTIC Reconstruction of Theater, Costing Nearly $4,000, to Begin Soon Reconstruction and renovation work on the Majestic theater, costing nearly $4,000, and which will virtually con- vert the campus playhouse into a new building, will be begun in about two weeks. To relieve the congestion at the en- trance a new door will be built in the front just north of the present en- trance, and the canopy over the side- walk will be extended to cover the new opening. A new floor will be laid on the stage, and the present heating apparatus will be torn out to be re- placed by a new system. Entirely new scenery is to be purchased to take the place of the sets now in use. The parquet and the balcony aisles and the stairways will be recarpeted, and the lobby at the rear of the audi- torium will be covered with cork mat- ting. All of the seats are to be re- upholstered and renovated, and the entire interior will be repainted and redecorated. The theater probably will close June 19 until fall. Next college year when the vaudeville season starts, the three- a-day show policy will be discontinued and only two shows will be given, mat- inee and evening.

Curry, employed at the uni- versity hospital. The amount was $5.00. There were no other prizes given out although a second and third were offered. The winning suggestion was, in brief, that university employees in the various departments should from time to time hold conferences with talks and discussions pointing out the' necessity of economy, the danger and expense of carelessness, and such other matters as could advantageously be talked over. Open Oratorical Contests to All Debates to Be Thrown Open to Public; No Admission to Be Charged At a recent meeting of the Oratorical board of the Oratorical association it was decided that next year's contests would be open to the public and no admission charged.

Senior l11 class meeting tomorrow PLAN MEETING T FURTHER SPIRITOF SENIORS TO ASSEMBLE THURS- l)A Y AT 11:00 O'CLOCK IN U- IALL HARRY B. HUTCHINS TO SPEAK Will Wear Caps and Gowns on Th'arsk day Instead of Friday; Expect Se- nior Classes to Dismiss To further the spirit of "Put Michi- gan First" among members of the graduating classes, a mammoth senior mass meeting will be held at 11:00 o'clock Thursday morning In Univer- sity hall. At that time matters per- taining to'a unification of '16 men for the support of Michigan when they join the ranks of the alumni will be discussed by faculty men and senior representatives. All'senior classes at that hour will in all likelihood be excused to permit the attendance of both men and wom- en. Caps and gowns are expected tQ be worn on Thursday instead of Fri- day to lend distinction to the occasion,, which may becometa Michigan custom. Plans for this meeting were ar- ranged at a meeting called by the president of the Student Council at the Union last night at which the various senior classes were represented. The numerous faculty men who have been approached have given the idea their hearty approval. Several matters of extreme import- ance to the welfare of the university will be laid before the meeting. The best means of keeping alumni loyalty at a level with that exhibited by the alumni organizations of the great eastern universities will be consid- ered. Among other things, the question of the best way to bring men to Michi- gan will receive attention. Also a part of the meeting will be turned over to the discussion of. the Michi- gan Alumni Trust Fund, which has been recently suggested, and which would be of a similar nature to that in vogue at Yale and several of the other big universities of the east. Since the past football season it has been frequently urged that Michi- gan men who were just going out from the university should give concerted aid toward the support of the- insti- tution. The movement found a hearty support in the speeches on Cap Night, and Thursday's meeting is hoped to prove the climax. President Harry B. Hutchins has agreed to act as one of the faculty speakers, and other prominent mem- bers who are to talk will be announced tomorrow. The increased zeal with which the campus greeted the interscholastic stars last week is a fair barometer of the attitude of the campus toward the securing of bigger men for Michi- gan; and it is hoped that such spirit will continue after graduation. INLANDER TO APPEAR FRIDAY W. W. Schroeder, '16, Contributes Ar tielo on Michigan Athletics The June number of the Inlander will make its appearance on the cam- pus Friday. W. W. Schroeder, '16L, whose article on the Michigan Union in the May number aroused much fa- vorable criticism, has contributed an- other article concerning athletics at Michigan. It is a penetrating analysis of the present. situation, and deals with questions which will be widely discussed next fall. In addition, there is an article by Harold B. Teegarden, concerning the performances of the Student Council; a story, "The Manuscript," by Emily M. Mack, '19, which won first prize in the Stylus short story contest; and a short humorous playlet, "Eden Again," written by Mary Langhorne, '16. The number abounds in poetry. Max- well E. Pitkin, '16L, vividly presents the picture of the snowbound "Ir- kutsk," the "Paris of the steppes." Probably the poem, "A Flirtation," in the impressionistic style, which is be- Irish day. peasant homes of the present 105 ENROLL FOR CAMP DAVIS Make Additions to Equipment; Several Prominent MAen to Visit One hundred and five men are al- ready enrolled for Camp Davis this summer, 14 of these being foresters. The official opening of the camp will take place on July 5, and the season will last eight weeks. Professor C. T. Johnston is looking for the best season in the history of the camp. A 35-foot launch has been recently purchased and will be put in Lake Burt, about four miles from camp. This will open up over 150 miles of inland lakes and rivers, along which surveying operations can be extended. Among the distinguished visitors expected to visit the engineer- ing "wigwam" this summer, are Presi- dent Hutchins and Dean Cooley. Dr. Drury will replace Dr. Stauffer as camp physician.
