TO CONVENTION
Voters Interested in Pronounce
ments of Great Parties.
Democrats Next Year Will BE Called
Upon to Explain the Failure Of
Their PoIicies-RepubIicans to
Outline Views.

The platforms of the two dominant
parties in recent years have been
rather cut-and-dried affairs. Neither
the convention delegates nor the pub
lie generally studied them very close
ly. There was interest in 1912 in how
far the Democratic party would go
on the tariff, and interest later devel-
oped in the declaration for a single
presidential term. But the attitude
of the parties was pretty well deter
mined before the conventions met.
1t will be different next veal when
the conventions assemble. There will
be acute interest in what the Republi-
can and Democratic parties have TO
say about military preparations.
There will be interest in what they
have to say about treaties and arbi-
tration policies as a substitute for for.
tifcations.
Also the public will be anxious to
know what the Democratic party has
to say about the failure to reduce the
cost of living and about the tariff-for
revenue-only that failed to raise rev
enue. There will be a desire to scru-
tinize any plank that may be adopted
defending the repeal of the Panama
canal act and to learn how the single
presidential term policy of the Demo
cratic party is coming along.
The Republican platform will be In
teresting chiefly for anything it may
say about the proposals for the restor-
alton of the protective tariff, military
defense and the cessation of attacks
on business. What attitude will be
taken toward the federal trade com
mission and other bodies created by
the Democratic party? The general
policy that will be pursued by the Re-
publican party, on its being restored
to power. doubtless will be set forth
and will be scanned eagerly by the
voters.
Personalities next year, as in years
gone by, will dominate the campaign,
but principles will figure more largely
than in any campaign since the Civil
war

Demand for Wage increase to BE

New York, July 24.-Whether mill
tia will be called out to preserve or

where two more men were killed in
fights between striking employees OF
the Standard Oil company OF New Jer-
sey and armed guards, bringing the
total deaths to three since the incep-
ton of the strike.
Sheriff Eugene Kinkead, who had
worked earnestly to pacify the strik-
ers, called on Gov. J.. F. Fielder for
troops when he was jeered by crowds
after the battle. Wilbur F. Sadler,
adjutant general of New Jersey, was
ordered to Bayonne, and on his report
rests the calling of the militia.
Later Sheriff Kinkead appealed to
Washington for federal mediators and
two of them were Immediately sen by
the department of labor.
A development last night which may
strike, or at least bring a truce, was
the acceptance by the strikers of an
offer of the five city commissioners
to act as ar5itrators.
The offer was made by Henry Will
son, commissioner of public safety.
The strikers will present their de-
mands for a Is per cent increase In
wages in writing to the commission
ers, and the latter will lay them be-
fore the Standard Oil plant officials.
The hull which followed the serious
disorder of Wednesday, in which one
youth was killed, was dissipated
shortly before noon yesterday when
several hundred of the 1900 strikers
attacked the guards within the Stand

London, July 22.-The German and

SITUATION GROWING WORSE
IN SOUTHERN REPUBLIC.
MAY FORCE WILSON'S HAND
Army officer, in Report. Sees No
Chance There for Adequate Relief
People Are Being Abused by the

ECdQCE OIL All EdCLtOnSs ne ASSGTL8.
Washington, July 23.-Oficial re-
ports given u at the war department,
indicating widespread starvation in
Mexico; the apparent failure of the
C~arranza government to sustain itself
in Mexico City, and the reoccupation
of the national capital by the Zapatis-
tas, gave rise to the view again in Of
fetal circles that President Wilson,
before long, will make public a new
plan for the pacifcation of the repub,
lie.
Brig. Gen. c.. A. Devol, sent by the
war department to take charge of the
American Red Cross efforts to relieve
the suffering in Mexico, has made a
report on conditions there. 1t is re-
garded as of great significance that it
should have been made public at this
time by Mr.. Garrison.
General Devol expresses the opinion
that the people of Mexico are being
abused by the leaders oe "all factions"
and that there appears 20 be no fu-
ture for adequate relief, even if the
American people would contribute for
this purpose. This, however, they
have only done to a very limited ex-
tent to this date"
General Devol says there have been
large exports of food supplies out of
Mexico to the United States and to
Cuba. He estimates that two thou
sand carloads of beans have been sent
out of the country. He states that
Gener Villa and his generals have
prohibited the purchase of supplies in
Mexico because there is an export tax
which is collected for the benefit OF
the military leaders and this amounts
to four hundred to five hundred dol
lars for each car hat crosses the Dor.
der. The Red Cross was not permit
ted to buy supplies in Mexico although
corn could be purchased on the Mexi
can side for ffty-six cents per bushel
The Mexicaps insisted that it should
be bought in the United States.

country.s Losses Heavy.

If in nine months when the war was
not waging the loss from the tarin
was $50, 000. 900, it Is a fair presump-
ton that the loss this year. compared
with the last year the protective tar
if was in operation. was at least $780,
900, 900, If not more. Further proof
of this is shown in the admission that
63 per cent of all imports are now
coming In free. Aside from the loss
of revenue, the greatest disadvantage
is found in the displacement of so
large an amount of American profits
and wages.

Customs Revenues.

Revenues from customs now In
hand for the fiscal year which ended
June 80 amount to about $204. 600, 900.
The total for the fiscal year probably
will be 1910. 600, 900, according to the
official figures. The receipts win be
at least $4,000, 900 less than last year
before the European war began.
The figures are a severe strain upon
the belief of those who argued that
the European war was wholly respon-
sible for the failure of the existing
tariff law as a revenue producer.

tion Again Demanded.

Washington, July 24.-The text of
the reply of the United States to the
German note on the Lusitania and the
general subject of Germany's subma-
rine warfare was made public at the
state department.
Soon after it was given out the
president went to Cornish for a vaca-
ton and Secretary Lansing left town.
Secretaries Garrison and Daniels also
will be absent until about Tuesday.
Only One Threat.
The only suggestion of threat or
menace to the Germans in the note
is in the last paragraph, and it is be-
lieved changes were made in it just
before 1t was put on the cables. This
paragraph says:
Friendship itself prompts it to say
to the imperial government that repe-
tition by the commanders of German
naval vessels of acts in contravention
of those rights must be regarded by
the government of the United States,
when they affect American citizens,
rs uOllOCi aISEy ullll ltIuly.
This phrasing, it is believed, was
adopted at the last conference be.
tween Secretary of State Lansing and
the president and at a time when
there were several other phrases un.
der discussion.
Not an Ultimatum.
The general tone of the note does
not affect the German official mind
here adversely. In the opinion Of
some German officials the note is least
of all an ultimatum, and suggests new
ways by which the diplomatic discus
sions can be continued. Count vor
Bernstorff, the German ambassador
was at the state department and was
handed a copy of the note. He would
not discuss it officially but he left thu
distinct impression on friends will
whom he talked that the avenues b,
which friendly adjustment can be sc
cured have not been closed.
One of the salient suggestions o
the note is that it seems to refrain
from repeating the language Of for
mer American notes, which have heel
construed by diplomats here as mean
ing that Germany must stop her subma
rine warfare. Not only is there an al
sence of that character of languag
but the concluding paragraph seem
only to ask that there be a restriction
ON the conduct of the submarine wal
fare affecting ships carrying Amer
cans. In other words, there is Ii
apparent insistence or demand tina
