When 4 caucus Of the Madison ward
delegation in tho City Council is called
next week by Councilman Gilbert X

sioner. an effort will be made Il is
said, to place the name Of James +.
Bradley in nomination and to push his
election through. MIR. Bradley repre-

still a year to serve. d. +. Mccarthy,
commissioner from Madison Ward, one
of the three commissioners invcsti-
gated by councilmanic committee
following charges preferred by the
Vice Commission, Will run for rc-elcc-
ton. Notwithstanding that the report
OF the investigation committee said
that, though there was no evidence
against him, his conduct was not
above criticism.
One man at least. it is said by those
who are acquainted with the under
current of politics. has switched from
an openly avowed promise to Nc
Carthy. and will east his vote Cor
Bradley. With Carter G. Jones and w.
w. Workman, who are said to be FOR
the Southside commissioner, this
Northside councilman will make the
third vote for Bradley. leaving three
men who have promised to support Nc
Carthy. One man. Alderman L. T.
Christian. is working for DR. w. T..
Mathews, and another councilman has
refused to express himself
Besides Mccarthy and Bradley, the
latter of whom is now generally looked
upon asa candidate. DR. Mathews and
J. Alexander Birchctt are candidates
for the commissioncrship. Birchctt
will get McCarthy's support. it is said,
if the present commissioners should
not develop enough strength. and the
fight becomes between Birchett and
Bradley. II is generally agreed that
DR.. Mathews will receive only one
vote in the caucus
If Bradley should receive the caucus
nomination., it is puestioDr-sssrgyf.ss
politicians i}ss'r' ,gg:aaT outd have TO
'TesfEh his present office and openly
announce himself as candidate. or
whether the nomination would relieve
him of that legal eXaction.
The fight Will not end. however. in

has strong support outside Of his own
ward, and II he should be turned down
by his own delegation several have
promised to advocate his recollection
from the floor. II Mccarthy should
fail, then. II Is said. his friends would

RELIEF EFFORTS HOPELESS
UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS

WASHINGTON, July 2O-Brigadier-
General Devol, general manager OF the
American Red Cross. returned from the
Texas border to-day with the an
nouncement that attempts to relieve
famine and suffering among noncom :
batants in Mexico were hopeless under
present conditions. General Dcvol was
thoroughly discouraged by the failure
of the Mexican factional leaders to
help in relief work. While the official
statement from Red Cross headquarters
tonight merely said 1t had been de-
cided that for the present much OF the
relief work must be postponed" the
Idea here is that the Red Cross will
abandon it's activities until the United
States government has further de-
veloped its Mexican policy.

Many of my friends have already
pledged their support to other can

Besides, it would injure the prospects
of some of the other candidates who
have been among my supporters in
