FORTY CONTESTS FOR

Republican National Committee Opens Hearings on Disagreements Affect
 ing Sixty-two Delegates.

Chicago, June 1-The republican national committee met here today at the Coliseum for the purpose of hearing and deciding forty contests, involving the right of sixty-two dele gates to seats in the national con- Vention next Wednesday.
 The committee, which was called to order by Chairman Charles D. Hilles, made plans to devote three days to hearing arguments of the contestants, though several members expressed the belief that not more than two days would be required in disposing of the contests. Four years ago the national committee held ses- sions over a period of more than three weeks in order to hear the several hundred contests and much bitterness developed, but today there is com- paratiVely little interest manifested over the outcome, as the result prob ably will not seriously affect the fortunes of any presidential candi- date.

WILSON TO MARCH
President Will Lead Preparedness Parade on Foot in Washington and Will Then Address Marchers

Washington, June 1.-President Wilson, marching on foot will lead the preparedness parade here Flag day, June 4. Afterward he will re- view the procession and deliver Q Flag day address to the marchers.
 When a local committee asked the president today to review the parade, he replied enth usiastically that he not only would review it, but would march in it. The president also promised that if possible he would give permis- sion to all government employees in Washington to march. He said he would start with the procession at the beginning, march to the reviewing stand, and then drop out for the re- view.
 Members of the presidents cabinet and other officials probably will march with the president, who feels that by marching himself he will most emphatically show his personal inter- est in the dem mOnStration.

Greatest Effort of Germans.

Paris, June l. 9:45 a. m.-MOre complete accounts reaching here from Verdun show that the battle which ragged from May 27 to May 30 and which ended, according to state ment of the French war office, in a, costly check for the Germans, was the greatest effort made by the Teu- tonic forces in the whole Verdun op- eratiOnS. More and heavier guns and denser masses of troops were as- sembled along the three miles of the French front from Hill 304 to the Mouse than in any previous attack
 The French stood firm under an avalanche of shot and shell and drove back wave after wave of flood of Teutonic infantry. They only surrendered about one hundred yards of ground at Little Caurettes Wood, where a trench had been obliterated by the terrific fire of the German big guns.
 According to information given by prisoners the German forces consist ed of two fresh brigades with three companies of pioneers. The mission of the latter troops was to work around Cumierss and reach the Chat tancourt village by the road running parallel to the railroad. In the mean time, two other regiments were or dered to creep along the bank of the river and seize the Chattancourt rail- road station to the west of the vil- lage. Another brigade was instructed to storm the woods and hedge rows which border Chattancourt to the west, while other attachments, act ing still further to the west, were to support the attack. Tn the opinion of French military critics the result was not only a failure for the Ger mans but a success for the French such as they have rarely attained.
 Germans Suffer Heavily.
 The Germans suffered so heavily that they ceased further attacks, while the French by a prompt counter attack, stablished themselves again south of Cumieres and won an inn portant point of vantage on the south western slope of Dead Mans hill.
 It develops that during yesterdays battle west of the Mouse the Germans sent back the French line between Dead Man Hill and Cumieres for distance of three-Quarters of mile.
