W|SC0NSIN'S
CONVENTION
The Republicans Holding ses
sion for First Time in
Six Years.

Milwaukee, June S.-For the first
time in six years the Republicans of
Wisconsin met in state convention at
the auditorium this afternoon for the
purpose of ascertaining the general
party sentiment toward the present
national administration by the adop-
tion of party platform and to con-
slider the advisability of recommend
ing or indorsing candidates for the
state offices to be voted for at the
September primary election.
The convention is made up of 1,O65
delegates. Among the delegation from
all parts of the state are quite num-
ber of the former followers of United
States Senator Robert LaFollette but
the majority are adhorents of the So
called stalwart wing of the party.
Aside from adopting a platform en-
dorsing. the national administration il
is impossible to forecast just what
business the convention will transact.
Vice President James S. Sherman,
accompanied by former Congressman
James F. Watson OF Indiana, arrived
in Milwaukee today. The distinguish
ed visitors were met by large recep-
tion committee. They will address
the Republican convention tonight.

men accorded the privileges of the

cease conversation. the rules of the
house would be enforced against
them. That Senator LaFollette was
referred to was not doubted by those
who observed the incident.
Some time ago 1t is said, Speaker
Cannon was on the floor of the SEN
ate when Senator LaFollette was de-
livering speech. Suddenly the Wis
consin senator turned and called for
order. Mr.. Cannon, who was talking,
retired to cloak room. Todays in

RUM0R IS THAT PRESIDENT OF FRANCE
IS ANXIOUS TO RETURN TO PRIVATE LIFE

1t used to be that the president
took daily walks in the Champs Ely
see and In the neighborhood of the
Arch de Triumph. He was practically
unattended, and his growing corpu-
lency made these constitutionals very
beneficial. One day, as was largely
chornicled at the time, a waiter nam
ed Matthias. in the Etoile district, met
FGllieres and pulled his whiskers. It
was thought at the time that an at
tempt was made on his life, but 1t
turned out that Matthias was only q
crank and merely wished to yank the
beard of the president. Since then
the walks have been abandoned.
This was merely the final indignity,
however. to which the president had
been subjected. 1t was to general
conditions therefore, and not to this
isolated case, that he yielded. There
is in France a band Of what are
known as "the Camelots du Roi." and
seldom does the president show him
self in public that these young royal
lists fail to make him understand that
it is a king they want, and not a
president. These manifestations as
sumo many forms. Sometimes the
SdIlclOl6 m0Ic1y 0uOuIs DOW0
with the Republic!" or some such as
that. At others they seemingly wish
to get at the president and do him
personal violence.
Has "Sleeping Sickness"
True or not, there is story going
the rounds that the chief executive
has sort of sleeping sickness. s"
That is to say when he presides at
cabinet meetings he sometimes fall
asleep and has to be gently awakened
by discrete prods from q minister who
when he sees the president open his
eyes and lift his. chin of his chest,
looks innocently In another direction.
There Is still another way of look
ing at the rumor. People are rather
expecting the president to resign.
Therefore. following all precedent in
France, he will not resign. The un-
expected happens here. Never the ex-
pected. Last May was expected to be
the bloodiest in the history of May
days. 1t was the quietest. BRAND
has been expected to lose his seat a
half dozen times. He still holds 1t. A
general strike has been announced.
threatened and expected dozen times
in the last twelve months. 1t hasn't
come yet.
Following precedent. therefore.
President Fallieres will serve his full
seven years.

Unbleached Flour Placed Be.
tween the Leaves Assimilat.
ed by the Plant.
EXPERIMENTS UPON ANIMALS
SHOW DIFFERENCE N EFFECT
Food Made From Bleached Flour is
Not So Quickly Nor So Thoroughly
Digested as That Made From the
Bleached Product.

Kansas City, June S.-More rapid
progress was expected today in the
"beached flour" case being tried in
the United States circuit court here.
The cross-eXamination of DIR. Gustave
Mann of Lulane university, New Or.
leans. was resumed when the court
convened this morning. He testified
yesterday that the digestibility of
bleached flour was only one-half that
of the unbleached product. He stated
that through experiments with
species of plant known as drosera, a
carniverous bog-inhabitating herb,
was proved the indigestibility of the
bleached quality of flour.
Gluten from unbleached -four was
assimilated when placed on leaves of
a drosera plant; gluten from bleached
flour killed it. So testified DIR. Mann.
The drosera plant, explained the pro-
fessor, contains juices similar to
those in the human stomach.
DR.. Mann also said he experimental
upon animals with the two kinds of
flour and found that the bleached pro-
duct did not digest as easily or az
thoroughly as the unbleached.
Because of the long time required
to hear all the testimony in the case,
Judge Smith Mcpherson plans to
lengthen court hours. The govern
ment will not finish the presentation
of it's case until the end Of this week.
The defense says it will require
week to give it's testimony.

Paris, June S-President Fallieres
may hand in his resignation as soon
as the new chamber of deputies set
ties down to business. The presi-
dents health Is not what it might be.
Thai is one reason why he apparently
wishes to give up his office, rather
than hold on to 1t for the three re-
naming years of the seven for which
he was elected. He is bitterly crit
icised for acts of commission, but for
his political sins of commission he Is
more bitterly assailed still. He re-
sents adverse criticism rather severe
ly.
During the flood. though somewhat
under the weather, he was rowed
about in the inundated sections per-
sonally looking over the ground or
more properly speaking-the water.
Yet his gift to the sufferers fund,
falling as it did rather below the gifts
Of the other rulers in Europe, brought
down upon his head caustic abuse.
Even Madame Fallieres did not es-
cape. Sarcastic stories of how she
cut off this article and that from her
grocer's bill, and how she personally
supervised the kitchen of the Elysee
to see that no scraps we're needlessly
thrown away, were put into print.
Fallieres is said to dislike the out
come of the recent elections also. His
party lost nearly thirty seats in the
chamber. Millerand only got through
on the last balloting by narrow mar
gin. Millerand is Fallieres' minister
of public works. The rumor that his
prime minister, BRAND, would resign
upon reassembling of the legislative
body, unfounded though 1t was, was
most disconcerting at the time. And
the seemingly well-founded other
story, to the effect thet General Brun,
his minister of war, served as ammu-
milton for the opposition press to
point out the weakness of the cabinet.
il Almost q Prisoner.
The reason stated for General
Bruins projected return of his port
folio is one of health. General Brun,
however, came near losing his place
Just prior to the closing of the last
session of legislature, over the mill
tary airship question. Germany, his
enemies said, was rapidly going for
ward in the dirigible line. France was
standing still. Brun was placed in q
tickliea position.
Another reason given why Presi-
dent Fallieres may resign is that he
IL alleged to be almost a prisoner in
his own palace.
