Cleveland, O., July 25.-Fine. instead OF

as a misdemeanor instead OF a felony
Fine and Imprisonment or both attend

They will then be hailed into court as In

District Attorney Sullivan left Cleve-
land for Chicago last night TO confer
with District Attorney Morrison and AS
sistant Attorney General Pagin. He re-
fused TO tell the object OF his journey.
but In well-informed circles IL was learn
ed that he had been summoned to take
part in a conference at which the meth
DDS to be pursued under the new plan OF
campaign will be agreed upon.
The decision thus to change the line OF
attack is Of national Importance. The
departfent OF justice at Washington, IL
