their buggies, wagons. harness and
implements. On the second floor
will be installed one of the best
skating rinks in this part of the

John Sherman
 for vice.President

Hearst News Special to the Graphic
 Chicago, H., June 1S.-Eew York will present the name of Represen tative James Sherman for Vice Pres ident This was decided on at eau GUS of the New York delegation to- night. Chairman Woodruff of the del egation said he had been assured of the vote of Oklahoma and that half a dozen other states would vote for his candidate.
 Iowa held her caucus tonight and decided to offer Governor Cummins. Beyond all was the sentiment ex- pressed freely tonight that Secretary Taft can nominate his running mate if he so desires. Taft's preference has always been for Senator Deliver, but owing to the latters repeated as scrtions that he did not want it, Taft may leave to the convention the f.e. cision in the matter. Vice President Fairbanks stock went down when it was realized that Taft was not for him. but many delegates believe in view of the feeling displayed between the Ohio and Indiana delegations tc- day during the speech of Governor Hanly it will be good policy to placate Indianans and give the nomination to Fairbanks.

5000 HOMELESS
 BY LOUISIANA FLOOD
Overflow Extends Almost Entire Length of the State Along the Red. and Is Greatest Ever
 Known.

Shreveport, La, June 1S.--Five thousand people are homeless in Louisiana On account of the flood. Both the national and state govern ments will be asked for aid. The city of Alexandria today sent out large supplies to those suffering in that sec ton. Many cattle have been lost by the high water. The flooded district now extends from the Arkansas state line to the southern portion of the state. The damage to growing crops is the greatest in the history of the state. Railroads are badly crippled.
 Red river is falling, caused by the breaks in levees, which has given the stream a much wider area to cover.
 Relief for Louisiana flood sufferers was arranged for tonight by Governor Sanders. He announced that the War Department will furnish supplies and |that Gen. J. s. Bell, chief of staff, has ordered Maj. Foote of New Orleans to take charge of the situation.
