HUGHES LEADS
 ON BALLOT

CHICAGO, June 10-The Repub- Iican delegates sitting in the Ma tlonal convention have taken two ballots on the presidential candi- dates who have been nominated. After the finish of the second bal lot the convention was adjourned for lunch and has been called to assemble at two o'clock for the fhind ballet.
 Justice Hughes lead in both bal lots, although Roosevelt gained strength in the last count. The secmld vote resulted in the receiv- ing by Hughes of BPS; Roosevelt S1; Root 9S; Burton 76; Weeks 79; sherman 65; Fairbanks 8S; and Cummins S5.
 Georga w. Perkins informed the convention before it adjourned that RooseVeh would not stand for the nomination on Justice Hughes.
 Roosevelt is keeping close touch on the convention by phone. He was pleased with the second ballot. Some of the leaders believe that there may be possibility of the nomination of Root to keep the party together. Roosevelt has not expressed his feelings on Root.
 The progressives are waiting impatiently for the republicans to decide before holding their con- vention. It Is rumored that if the Republican nomination is satisfac- tory to the progresses that they will not hold a nominating conYen- tion.

PREDICT SMALL
TRADE THIS WEEK

IL is a holiday market A few
stocks were sold after the opening
on the fear that Lansing's interview
might mean trouble with Germany.
When the recovery movement set
in, prices rallied almost to those of
opening. This week Will probably
be one Of small dealings. Some
people have been hurt and some
scared. From now on discrimina-
ton will rule. We will have no more
war markets such as those OF the
past but we de believe we will have
legitimate speculation which will
be based on intrinsic values. and
that the good industrials will re-
cover in price and that railroads in
general will have a good advance
There is a very strong crowd back
Of Southern railway. the same thing
can be said of Missouri Pacific and
Chesapeake and Ohio. Stocks like
Western Union cannot remain
around the present level because the
investor is taking them out of the
street and they will gradually appre-
ciate in value for that reason.
