CHICAGO. June 17.-As between
resident Taft and Col Roosevelt the
residential nomination hung by an
eyelash today according to a system of
addition and subtraction employed by
expert political forecasters and based
upon all the probabilities and possibil-
ides presented by the most confusing
convention situation in the history of
the Republican party.
Taft headquarters declared positive
ly today that the president will go into
the convention with a majority of
twenty votes after all possible deser-
ticns are deduced.
Senator Borah, speaking for the
Roosevelt faction. after pointing out
the opposition's reduced claims. was
equally positive that the Taft forces
would not have SUFFICIENT votes to con-

.PATROLMAN NEARLY
SHOCKED TO DEATH
Officer Edwards Seizes Elec-
trio Light Chain and
Fell Unconscious.

Leroy Edwards, patrolman, II Lau-
rel street, narrowly escaped death Sat
urday evening when he seized a chain
controlling an arc light at the corner
of Seventh and Main streets at $50,
and was shocked into unconscious
ness. Fred Barton, a bystander, pulled
tie unconscious officer from the
clutches of the live wire. DR.. Burcham,
who has an Office nearby, rushed to
the scene, and prying open the un-
conscious mans mouth, pulled his
tongue from his throat, saving his life
When person is badly shocked the
tongue invariably expands filing up
the throat and strangling the victim.
Edwards was to all appearances dead
for three minutes, no heart beats or
breathing being noticeable. AS soon
as his tongue was reduced to it's nor
NAL size and his body warmed by rub
hing, respiration started again, and a
short time later he was conscious. He
was rushed home in an automobile.
Today he is able to be about His
right first finger is badly burned and
his feet are still stinging from the
saock sustained.
While Edwards was standing at the
corner Saturday night the arc light
suddenly went out. He went to the
pole on which the chain controlling
the lamp is fastened, and grabbing the
chain above the insulated handle
st,ated to jerk the light to start it to
working. The chain it is thought, came
in contact with a 500 volt feed wire

up and seizing Edwards clothes pulled
him down.

BUILDING BOOM IS
ON IN FULL BLAST
Building Record for Present
Year Promises to Equal
1911 Record.

Contrary to indications during the
first months of the year, Richmond is
experiencing a real building boom. 1t
was first believed that there would be
very little building in this city during
1912, but from present indications it
appears that the amount of building
this year will almost equal that of
1911.
The Louck and Hill company is
building eight flat buildings on South
Eleventh street upon the ground for
merly occupied by a lumber yard by
the Cain Lumber company The apart
ment house will cost $36, 900. The com
pany expects to have the building COM
pleted by October 1.
Elwood Mcclure, who is building a
three-story structure between Tenth
and Eleventh streets on Main, expects
to the see the building completed by
the middle of october. This building
will cost approximately $4,000. 1t will
have three store rooms on Main street,
each twenty-one and one-half feet
wide. 1t will be three stories in
height, the upper floors to be used as
flats.
The new Murrette theater will be
finished within a short time. The thea

the building finished some time ago
but the contractors have been delayed
by not receiving material for work or
the interior of the building.
A number of other buildings are be

being finished daily. Especially is this
noticeable in the eastern and western

DORAN BRIDGE TO
BE REPAIRED NOW
Board Orders New Beams
Under Floor-Other Ac-
tions of Board Today.

The question of repairing of the
Doran bridge was brought to the at
tention of the board of works this
morning with the result that an Or
der will soon be placed for a large
number of beams, to be placed be.
meath the new bridge floor. This will
entail considerable expense. Contrac-
tor l.. NJ. Jones, who is to have charge
of the work, reported the beams now

to the city is evidenced by the reduced

Black or white road oil may be used
on the streets of the city as the proper

| Lancaster who has applied the white
oil to the streets would be supplied
with more white oil for the second
coating for the streets. The company
will also stand the expense of giving
the streets already oiled a thorough
cleaning. The company also states it
believes certain citizens of this city
have not treated Lancaster fairly in
refusing to pay for the oiling of their
streets after the work was done. The
board of works concurred in this.
The mayor made a motion which
was seconded, that all poplar trees
now adorning the sidewalks and grass
plots in the city be cut down. The

CHICAGO, June 17.-Inasmuch as
there is very large supply of ex-
tremely competent seethers and boil
ers in the city, Sunday was largely
devoted to seething and boiling
Sedulous seethers were constantly
stepping on ones feet in the hotel lob
bies and seething into ones face; and
buoyant boilers boiled up, boiled out,
and boiled over, here, there, and every
where. 1t was the same upstairs in
/ the rooms that shelter the professional
seethers. They were not seething in
doing a lot more of it, for, as is we'll
known, they have lot more of it to
do. The net result of the days ebulli-
tion was plenty of bubbles and steam,
| but nothing more tangible. When the
sergeants and corporals who are run
ming this show, or are being run by it,
which Is closer to the fact closed down
! for the night they were in exactly the
same case as they were in the morn
, ing when they had their eggs. Not one
of them knew what is going to happen,
and not one of them did not claim to
! know exactly what is in prospect.
! Number one of the political aphor-
isms is: Claim everything. The men
who are in charge of the various af-
| fairs of the various candidates are
ably aphoristical. They claim every
thing Then, following out political
precepts, they concede nothing. Thus
the eager seeker after information
learns that Taft is sure to win, that
Roosevelt is sure to win, that Cum
Minis and La Toilette are sure to win,
Hughes, or Borah, or some one else.
And, casting general average, the
result obtained is that, while some
body is certain to win, nobody in Chi
cago knows who that somebody will
be.

1t was hot in the morning, but in the
