CHICAGO, June 18.~Warrlng Taft
and Roosevelt forces met at the Coli-
seum today for the opening of the tif—
lteenth Republican national convert-
tion. with battle litres on boflr sldcs ap-
panently holding firm and with leaders
and delegates predicting that the
Besslon would mark an epoch in the
annals of American politics.
: Itarely have the principals in a na-
lonal political convention got under
greater stress of feeling than that
which prevailed today. The’ atmos-
phere was electric with bitterness and
personal animosity.

Said That the South Norwalk
Savings. Bank Building is
Four Inches Dver
More trouble is arising .by reafonof
the‘fact that no building "news: ever
legally establlhsed in Washington
street and this last difference may
lead to the establishment of such a
line which will be designated as that
do which most or the buildings on the
north side of the street conform.
The trouble is with the South INor‘
iwalk Savlnks Bank. Christain Swartz
having discovered and complained
that it is the intention of the bank
officials to permit the building to be
erected with its front line extending
duiiy four inches beyond the imagin-
ary linefi '
The matter has been called to the
attention of the board of councilman
and at first it is understood that all
were in favor of establishing a line
so that the bank would of necessity be
moved back. Since that time however
practically only one who seems active
in the matter is Councilman Harry W.
Mather who ‘holds that if it were .fair
for George Keeler to change his plans
and move his 'bulldln'g 'bhck, it is fair
for the bank to do the same. Council-
Matber was in the council chamber
last night armed with a set of resolu-
tions whichwouid provide for the ne-
‘cessary steps being taken to designate
a building line.
To shift the building back the de
mended four inches would necessitate
considerable work and some expense
as: the plans would have .to be changed
tihrOughout, owing to the fact that, the
building to to 'be erected to conform,
with the dimensions of the lot and, as
the lot is wedge shape with the base at
. the front, itrwlll be impossible to more
the building back unless the rear end ‘

Tait'a dinner last night to Speaker
Eerrara of the Cuban House of Rep
resentutlves, is regarded by diplomat-
lsts here as a further evidence of the
intention of this g0vernment to main-
tain its attitude of non-interwenvtion in
Cuba. The function was not extended
to Speaker Nrrara as an individual,
but was“ intended us a dembnstratlon
0f kindly feelings of the United States
toward the Cuban gov.enm-ent Form-
er speaker Cannon and many officials
of this government attended.‘
Officials here generally regard the
Cuban situation as being under bet-
ter control now, and there is a possi-
bility that the American warships may
be withdrawn soon to continue their -
summer drills in Northern ‘ waters.
The marines, of course, would be left
for the protection of property.
Another evidence that the situation
is regarded as favorable, is the an-
nouncement that the army transports,
imade ready a week ago for immediate
movement of an expeditionary; force of
dye thousand men may soon be put
out of commission, hnless the situa-
tion changes for the worse.
