GEORGE E. WHITE
MAY ENTER RACE
For Congress on the RepubIi-
can Ticket in This Congress
sionaI District.
tsrrerAL TO 1ar 1rlEs..u,

WASHINGTON, D. c., June az
There is no candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination for Congress in the
First district. That is, there was no
candidate until State Senator George
L. White, Of Weston, arrived here
one day last week. Mr.. White was
not candidate when he came here,
nor was he candidate until after he
had been here for some hours. Nor
is he candidate now. but he is
thinking about 1t, and very fayorably.
The situation in the First district is
such that those who have. or think
they have, direct interest are in
tensely interested in getting some
body into the race who they think
has a good chance to be elected. The
sentiment in Washington, among the
West Yirginians, is that anybody who
receives the Republican nomination
is going to be elected, despite what
he does or does not do in his behalf.
That opinion, perhaps, is not coin
cided in by visitors from West Vir-
ginia, but 1t really amounts to an
obsession with West Virginians in
Washington. And they are not ig-
AOi dlnusSS HuSIelu luS game ID COLL
cerned.
Mr.. White is young lawyer whose
practice is at Weston. He is men,
Der of the state senate. His person
atty is pleasing. He is not pushing
himself, nor has he ever, but never
theless he is sensitive to the condt-
lions and opportunities that seem to
beset him. He is not candidate for
Congress. But he would like to be
the candidate for Congress If 1t is
the judgment Of the party in the dis
trict that he should have the nomi-
nation. he is willing then to under
take the task, and he is equipped
financially to carry the burden that
the nomination would impose on
him, and to try to make a most ag-
gressive campaign that he has the
ability to make.

They May Be Killed.

CHICAGO, June PA squad Of
police armed with rifles today had
charge Of the FIVE young lions and
their mother, which last night killed
and partly devoured their keeper,
Emerson DIETRICH, football player and
son Of Brooklyn architect. The
animals are the property OF Miss Adgie
Castillo, vaudeville performer, who
exhibited them. She employed Deit-
rich as her assistant. Whether the
animals will be destroyed will be de-

tivity and considered harmless. Deit-
rich was knocked down in the cage
accidentally, it is thought, but as
soon as the beasts smelled his blood

from Going In.

house Electric and Manufacturing
Company, today said he had no in
formation concerning the coming of
mediators.
Four thousand pickets surrounded
the Westinghouse plants this morn
ing in anticipation OF an attempt to
take workmen into the shops but
there was no evidence that the COM
pany has abandoned its policy of
waiting until the old employees re-
turn. The general strike committee
held meeting and gave final instruc-
tions to the subcommittee that is
expected to call on Mr.. Herr later in
the day. Officers of the union said
that no change had been made in
their demands.
When the committee called on Mr..
Herr they asked him to call meeting
of the heads Of all the Westinghouse
companies SO that all grievances
might be taken up and settled by one
committee. Mr.. Herr told them hN
had no power to call such meeting
but he would use his influence to
have the heads of other companies
present. The strikers today mounted
a moving picture machine, where 1t
commanded the main entrance to the
electric works in order to secure films
showing every person entering and
leaving the plant. A parade of strik-
ers in Swissvale marched to the house
of Burgess L. L. Heinrich and de-
handed that he remove a policeman.
who, they said, had used more force
in dealing with pickets than the oc-
casion required. The burgess prom
ised to listen to specific charges
against the policeman.

DEPARTURE
In Lighting of Street Refuge
Spots to Be Tried Out by
Paris City Council.

PARIS, June ga departure in
street lighting is to be tried on the
vast open space in front of the cathe-
dral of Noret Dame, by the Paris
city council. Many complaints have
been made of accidents to persons
while crossing this square, and the
erection Of refuge spots was decided
on as imperative. In the ordinary
way lamp posts would be erected on
these refugees, but this would have
completely spoiled the free aspect OF
the approach to the ancient pile. 1t
was, therefore, decided that the ref
uge places should be lighted from
underneath by lamps under thick
glass.
