CHICAGO SIZZLING WITH MERCURY Al 96
The Hottest Day in the Windy City in
 Seven Years.

Chicago, July 1.-The highest tenn perature in seven years was recorded in Chicago today. two deaths and nu- merous prostrations resulting. Only the fact that humidity was normal kept the death list from mounting, for what breeze there was came laden with heat waves and even in the shade small relief was to be found. The hot test day Chicago ever experienced was July 21. 1901, when 103 degrees was recorded at the government observa- tory. Today the record there was 96 degrees, but street level thermometers registered from 100 to 103 degrees.
 In the tenement districts the heat was unbearable and all persons who could. moved to the parks. Some slight break in the temperature is ex- pected tomorrow, but the chances of lasting relief before Monday are dim, according to the official forecast

 IN THE WEST
Opinion of Secretary Dover of Republican Committee
Action of Denver COnven-
 tiOn Thought to be an Abandonment of the East

Hot Springs, Va, July 11.-'I am en- tirely willing to turn the campaign over to my management except as to the question of general policy" said Wm. H. Taft today when questioned concerning the conduct of the coming campaign. That the campaign is to be conducted chiefly fin the west is conceded by political leaders who have been here since the democratic conven- tion concluded it's work. Elmer Dover. secretary of the republican national talk with Taft lasting three hours.
 "The campaign will be fought In the west" sad Dover. "The selection of a vice presidential candidate from the west and several blanks in the plat form plainly indicate to me that the democrats do not intend to make any general effort for electoral votes in the east, but will concentrate their ef- forts in the west. Of course they will contest some of the eastern states but if they intended to make a serious fight in the east they would have se- lected New York
 George Sheldon, treasurer of the committee, declared that he would be- gin the work of raising money in a systematic manner in New York next Monday.
 Attorney General Wade Ellis of ohio, telegraphed Taft today that he was unable to come here at this time on account of illness.

The Gathering There of Delegates Return
 ing From Denver
All Sorts of Promises Made by Them to Mir. Bryan Even to the Carrying of New York for Him.

Fairview, Lincoln, Neb., July H. Wm. J. Bryan opened the doors of the today with brief speech touching upon the publicity of cam paign contributions, and platforms of candidates. He was also received with the cheers left over from the Denver convention. The Nebraska delegation returning with triumphant banners after a vociferousness unequalled in political history. did not deliver what might be called a cheer at all. Minne- sota, however. having had less call for the assertion of it's lungs at Denver delivered a full three as a seal on Governor JOhnson's promise to support the ticket in every possible way. They were ably assisted by the North Da- kotans who came on the same train. It was to them and to his fellow townsmen, members either of he Lin- eoln Bryan club or the Nebraska Tray cling Mems Bryan Club. that Bryan made the only speech of the day. The lawn as substitute for the front porch also was brought into play by Bryan.
 The returningNew York conV entiOn workers had no time to make the four mile IflD rom l1lDCOln to fdlTNltW, so Bryan, accompanied by Mrs. Bryan, and his private secretary. Robert Pose, made the trip to town in the family carriage. At the two railroad stations he saw first J. w. Corners, chairman. of the New York state central Commit- tee, whom he congratulated on New York's share in making the platform and the selection of vice presidential candidate Mrs. Corners is travelling with Corners in the regular train. lSt the Rock Island depot there was larg CT crowd, including Charles F. Murphy, Lewis Nixon, F. P. Harrison. orlando Thayer. Robert E. Luce, Martin w. Littleton, D. L. Conan and James Cas- sidy.
 Are you going to carry New York for the ticket?" Bryan asked Corners, with smile.
 If we don't I'll never shake hands with you again" came the answer. and Bryan laughingly pleaded against so "cruel and unusual" punishment
 No, that goes," answered tine New York leader.

department was that there was an invasion of Honduras territory by Guatemala, but the American consul at Porto Cortez, in a communication to the legation at Guatemala City, did not confirm it.
 Nicaragua declares that whatever action may be taken is entirely for the purpose of patrolling it's own coasts and it has no ulterior de- signs against Honduras, while Sal 'vador, according to advices which have just reached the state depart ment, has arrested both Hondurans and Salvadoreans, who are believed to be implicated in the uprising against Honduras.
 The American government consu-' lar agent at Amapala is William Hayden. Curiously enough he is a Venezuelan by birth, but was ap- pointed to his present position from Honduras.
 The cruiser Albany has been or dered to Amapala and will remain as long as necessary. Captain Henry l.. Mayo, commanding, will investf- gate and report the conditions grow ing out of the revolution and the necessity of protecting American in- terests. The Hondurans feared the revolutionists might capture Anna pala. The cruiser will start by Monday from Panama, the distance being 700 miles She will take aboard at Panama 100 marines wanted for duty at San Francisco.

An Unexpected Use Made of the Central
 American Tribunal of Justice
Honduras Brings Action for Damages ganst Salvador and Guatemala Alleging That the Defendants are Encouraging Rebellion Against the Plaintiff

Q Washington, July 11.-Great inter est is manifested in the state de- partment in the Central American diplomatic colony news that Hondu- ras has instituted a suit before the Central American court of justice, against Salvador and Guatemala. charging them with promoting the Honduras revolution It is the first suit of the character brought before the court and the outcome will be watched closely, involving as it must, the question whether a regularly constituted government can be civ lilly held for damages for acts com mitted by any of its subjects against another with which the government sued may be at peace.
 While the treaties agreed upon by the conferences last year contem- plated a reference to the court of disputed questions it was hardly ex- pectvd that the very first issue would be of the character which now has been submitted to the tribunal. The institution of a general peace court has been dear to the hearts of Sec retary Root and the Mexican govern ment. Salvador and Guatemala both, through their diplomatic representa- tives in Washington, have declared absolute neutrality in the present uprising in Honduras.

duras and the Nicaragua refugees who are allied with them. This fact, the Nicaraguan government alleges menaces the peace of the Nicaraguan republic.
 President Zelaya is organizing an army to protect the Nicaraguah frontier and his action to this end receives the support of the people of the country.
 A request has been sent in from Porto Cortez, Honduras, for Mexican warships to protect Mexican inter ests. The Honduran government is said here to have irrefutable proof of its allegations that the govern ments of Salvador and Guatemala have given aid to the revolutionists of Honduras.
 There is reason to believe that a series of engagements will soon oc- cur and that the fighting will / be desperate. The rebels have captured the towns of Nacone and Bien, and Santa Rosa and Copan are menaced, The revolutioniSts have been almost uniformly victorious. Nicaragua is fearful of the outcome of the move ment in Honduras, Tor there is req son to believe that the plan of the allies is first to establish a joint government :n Honduras as soon as DaVaila is driven out, then advance upon and overthrow the Zelaya gov ernment in this republic.

ia, nearly 200 strong. Seated in the Icenter of a large circle on the lawn. Bryan gave them what one of them described as Just a nice farmer talk"
 Despite the size of the crowd, Bryan satisfied their obvious, though not ex- pressed curiosity. by showing them through the residence. In the course of the conversation on the lawn Bryan said he expected to carry New York and that there was no other state in the union in which he could be said to have no chance. Theodore A. Bell. temporary chairman of the convention. called to pay his respects. He said he expected Bryan to carry the coast.
 COngratulatory messages arrived in punches. dated from Texas to Minne- sota, and from Maine to Washington. Citizens of Indiana were particularly prominent, declaring that with Kern on the ticket Indiana was certain for Bryan.

VIOLATION OF POSTAL LAWS
Is Alleged in a Suit Against an Ex4
press Company, Brought by the
Government.

Cincinnati, o. = Violation of the
postal laws by carrying first class
mail matter was charged against the
American Express Co. in a suit filed
in the United States district court
here Thursday by District Attorney
Mcpherson.
This suit was the first gun in a
campaign which the government pro-
poses to wage against common car
riers for carrying first class mail mat
ter contrary to law.
In the information which Attorney
Mcpherson filed he alleges that the
American Express Co. on January 6
carried letter from Bolton. Tex, to
Cincinnati The letter was from Mrs.
Will Brown, of Bolton, and in it she
ordered from glove company IL
pairs of gloves and enclosed an ex-
press money order for $247 in pay
ment. Mcpherson claims the letter
did not relate to the business of the
express company and that the en-
velope did not bear postage stamp
as required by law. The penalty for
violation of this provision of the fed
eral statutes is 500.
