Oklahoma City, Okla, March l1 —
The Taft forces have agreed upon
their temp-J-ary organization for the
State Republican Convention when It
convenes thia afternoon as follows
J. & Dyke of Lawton, chairman; H.
O. House, Marietta, secretary; L. U.
Donchue, Okemah, assistant secre-
tary. The antl-Taft people have com-
bined on Judge J. T. Dickerson a
Chickasha for chairman of the t*.-n-
porary organization, but it Is not be-
lieved they can push It throurh It
is possible the antl-lnstructlonist fal-
lows will bolt and hold ano'her con-
vention. There Is practically no
doubt but that Dennis Flynn and Pltd
McGuIre will be the two delegates at
large from the west side, and J. H.
Harris of Wagoner, and Pat Dore ot
Westville, from the east side. Ja o
Robberts of Enid, and W. H. Busby
of McAlester, have been selected by
the Taft forces as the two electors
at large from the state. Cash Cade
will be elected national committee-
man, unless the slate Is broken.
There are more republicans In Okla-
homa ICty today than ever before.
There is the most friendly feeling
among the delegates and it Is bellevart
the two factions will come together
finally and that all differences prev-
iously existing will be harmonized.

againat the burial of Olga Averbuch,
by the sister cS the man that tried to
kill Chief Shlppy, the Jewish free bir-
ial society will exclude a 1 anarchists
from the cemetery, when Averbuch's
remains are transferred because Aver-
buch Is not regarded an an anarchist.

not Averbauch was armed when ho
went to tue chief's house, and also
that he dr.ub'ed Averbuch having
ben an anarchist. The Jewish citi-

MOVEMENT DEACTOPINO.
Ban Antonio, Tex., March 11.—Evi-
dences are not wanting of the devel-
opment of an antl-Taft movement
among the Texas Republicans. Col.
Cecil Lyona, a friend of President
Roosevelt, will undoubtedly swing the
Texas Republicans for Taft, as ha ha3
long been a dominant leader of the
Texas Republicans, however certain
enemies of his are using opposition
to Taft, which originates apparently
with a negro vigilance committee in
the north to organize the opposition
in Texas, the effort is to array the
negroes of the whole south against
Taft. It is probable that these o-
called "reorganized Republicans of
'texas' will separata from the regular
Republican party and hold a conven
tion of their own, sending a separate
set of delegates to the National Re-
publican Convention at Chicago. Sec-
retary Taft's enemies will of course
make political capital out of this, al
though the "Reorganized Republicans
of Texas" are not sufficiently strong
to count for anything.

Boston, Mass., March 11.—Miss
Weed and Miss Hardy, the latter a
student In a fashionable Lauren's
school, were found shot to death In
their beds this morning In the actio-.!,
dormitory. Miss Weed escaped fro-nj
the sanitarium last night and fled to
the school where her friend, MI.ib
Hardy, had agreed to care for her

learned of the surroundings or what
lead up to her escape from the san-

The police are of the belief that a
suicide pact had been entered Into

another theory of murder and suicide
attached to the story of their death,
of which but little or nothing cah be
gained of a reliable nature.
A revolver was found in the bands
of Miss Weed and the police believe
