REPUBLICANS OF IOWA
 IN A BITTER CONTEST
EXISTING SITIATIoN NEW TO THE PARTY IN THAT
 STATE,

'N''1 Anto TWO Factions-One Known as
 'ne "Frosressives" Led by GovermoF
 Cummins and the Other Cared the
 standpatters," Adherents of Georxe
 D. Perkins--Not Unlikely That T,vo
 Republican Tickets VIII be Put in tSe
 Field at Coming State Election.
 Des Moines, Ia, July SO.-The repub- hcan state committee of Iowa to-day decided by vote of 6 to 8 to sustain the action of Chairman Spence of tba committee, in informing Governor Cummins that the seats of a number og delegates to the republican state con- yentlon, which will begin on Wednes- day at Des Moines, were contested By the same vote the action of Chair- man Spence in calling the presant meeting of the state central conm;f+aa was ratified. Tn both cases the cbasr- man acted on his own responsibilitv He received a petition from adherenfs of George D. Perkins, candidate for governor, giving notice that the seafs or large number of Cummins deieu gates were contested.
 Chairman Spence thereupon sent no- tee of this fact to Governor Cu1unins who seeks nomination for re-elect,on The governor replied in a letter. de- nying the authority of the state can- tral committee to take up oontests. ag- sertlng that it had no Jurisdiction The vote of the committee tn-dav was regarded as an indication thaA the committee intended to assume Jurisdiction of the contests and to hear the contestants and the C1mnlins del- egatea. in case the latter entered an appearance. MT
 There are 164o delegates entitled to seats in the convention from nanetv- nine counties of Iowa. An entire stnfe ticket will be named, including ti1trteen candidates There are twenty-six as- pifents for nominations including four Tor governor. The main contest is be- tween Cumnins and Perkins
 Thomas F. Bevington. an attornav representing the friends of George p EPerSins, gave notice of contests ir tsn counties, involving 1e5 delegates. and protests in the case of two counties which have nilety-two delegates. n,ak- Ing 2S7 delegates objected to- As ~ tne contests the grounds alleged are 'ifregulalities'' and the accepting os democratic votes for Cumn1ins dele gates As to the protests, the obiec- tions were technical, relating to calls 1 for county onventions.
 Such a situation as that now exist ing is new to the republicans of Iowa. The party is apparently divided into two factions, one known as the stpro- gressives," represented by the friends of Governor Cummins, and the other called the "stanpatters,' who are ad- herents of George D. Perkins The feeling on both sides is bitter, and it is not unlikely that there may be two republican tickets in the field in Iowa, Although the state centpal committee has as yet taken no action looking to the making up of a temporary roll, Cummins' followers say that if the con testing Perkins delegates are authoriz- cd to participate in the temporary or ganization of the convention, the ac- tion of the state central committee will be ignored.

 No Arrests Yet.

 No Arrests Net.
 < St. Petersburg, July S0.- The public prosecutor has started proceedings against the members of the lower house of parliament who signed the Viborg manifesto. The charge under which the signers of the manifesto will be brought to trial is violation of article 129 of the criminal code which provides for attempts to overthrow the existing government" This is virtually high treason, the maximum penalty for which is hard labor in the mines
 No arrests have yet been reported, and the constitutional democrats do not anticipate anything approaching punishment of their representatives. It is understood that arrested members will be admitted to bail pending trial The constitutional democrats are chiefly apprehensive that the possibility of prosecution held over the heads of their leaders will render them ineligible for reelection, in the same manner that Prof. Milukoff and M. Hessen and oth- CTS were excluded from the last lower house.
 Socialists and radical members of the late house may have to cool their heels in cells for long time and thus be pre-

BEER DEFEATS cLoTHIER
YALE MAN CATCHES HARVARD
 PLAYER OFF HIS GAME


 Straight Sets--WiII Meet William A. Larned, the Former National Cham pion and Present Holder of the Long wood Cup, for That Trophy To-day. Boston, July S0,-Karl H. Behr of Yale university defeated William J. Clothier of Philadelphia, and recently of Harvard, in the finals of the Long, wood Cricket clubs tennis tournament to-day in straight sets, 6-1, S-6, 6-4. Behr will meet William A. Larned, the former national champion and present holder of the Longwood cup, in the challenge round tomorrow.
 The Yale player caught the former Harvard expert off his game at the be- ginning of the match, and try as he could, Clothier was unsble to regain control of his strokes while nearly every time he ran in, Behr passed him at the net. Despite the heavy rain of the early morning, the court was in good condition and the playing was very fast, Both men played ground game, the volleying and lobbying be- ing entirely absent. Behr seemed to have court boundaries to perfection while Clothier drove out of court fre- quently. On the other hand Behr was very cratic in his service and made eight double faults.
 Clothier was the favorite before the game because of his long experience on the courts, but Behr showed plainly the benefit of the hard work of last week, and played to-day with a confi- dence and daring that carried his op- ponent off his feet,
 An excellent contest is looked for to- morrow between the young Yale player and the veteran Larned. The points of the match were as follows;

When the independent telephone com.
panles FIRST began 10 como together lp
conventions to exchange experiences,
one fact was always commented upon
With great curiosity by the managers
OF town or city plants, says Success.
This was that they invariably met with
failure In their endeavors to induce
farmers to put In what are known as
lockout" devices. by means OF which
every telephone on party line becomes
practically a private wire
In cities. the party llne Is considered
a great nuisance, because there Is no
privacy In conversations and ell the
bells on the line are rung each time =
subscriber calls, Naturally, the manag-
ers Of plants figured that this objec-
tion prevailed in the country also; but.
almost without exception. they found
that one of the great attractions to the
farmer was that his telephone did ring
every time the other sixteen or twenty
people on the line rang up. and that he
could hear or be overheard IN conver-
sation. II was a practical demonstra-
tion OF the social hunger the farmer
has endured for centuries. and which
Is now ended. thanks to the arrival Of
telephone competition.
