CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-Belief that Robert
Eastman, known in Wall Street as Lame
Bob arrested month ago on two charges
of embezzlement and released last night
under bonds OF $4,000, has. jumped his
bail and left Chicago was expressed by
the police to-day.

missed

Loves Neither OF tho chief Parties.
As far as could be learned yesterday
the appeal of President Gompers Of the
American Federation Of Labor to the unions
for contributions for the labor political
campaign has been put before few Of the
unions. Some Of the officers Of unions
who believe Gompers was right in advising
the union men to vote for Bryan said the
matter would not be brought before their
unions officially. One Of these, National
Secretary Dougherty Of the International
brotherhood Of fBookbinders. said his organi-
zation would not take the matter up and that
In his belief the bulk Of whatever CON
tributions that would be received would be
from individual membe,s Of unions. -,
One OF the A. +. Of L. unions which dld
take the matter up was Local So OF the In
ternational Women's Garment Workers.
The result was that not only was the propo-
sition to send contributions voted down
but the following resolution also was passed:
We are convinced that the working class
can never be helped politically by william >.
Bryan. as he is the standard bearer OF class
which represents the interests of the capitalist
class Be It therefore
Resolped. that We indorse the only party
that deserves the support Of the working
class--the Socialist party

taken, not as an individual but as the execu.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-While no official

partment regarding the progress Of the
battleship conference at Newport, which
came to an end yesterday. an oficial
OF the Department said to-day that no
radical changes will be made in the design
OF the new battleships Florida and Utah.
This statement is taken to mean that the
location and width Of the main ar1nor belt
will remain as 1t 10 at present. It is not
likely that any changes will be made In the
Delaware and North Dakota, as these YES.
s.ls are too far advanced to permit material
alteration Of the plans
The new ideas which have been adopted
al a result OF the discussions at the New
port conference will be .embodied In the
designs Of the Florida and Utah. It Is ex:
pected that these plans will be completed
and submitted to President Roosevelt for
his approval about September /. As soon
as they have been approved preliminary
work will be begun on the Florida at the
