citation will be to knock out the pro-
posed uniform bill of lading. and to
that end a fund of 100000 is to be
raised.

from the general apparently declining
the nomination. But it seems now
that the letter only further complica-

The distribution of the letter, with
the vague sentence which may or MAJ
not be construed to mean a declina-
ton, succeeded in causing such an
alarming stampede from the Miles
band wagon until Mr.. WoOlley took in
the situation and called hasty meet
ing of the Miles leaders at the I'M

here and n statement was issued
which declared that the Miles letter
was not capable of the construction
