upkeep would be borne by the city
with possibly the exception Of small

the day the pool would be given over

WASHINGTON, Aug 10--Republi-
can Presidential Candidate Charles
Evans Hughes continues to stir up the
Wilson administration. His reitera-
tion of his charges that the president
violated civil service rules in the or
ganization of certain bureaus mas
speeded up Democratic campaign
plans all along the line.
Speeds Up Congress.
Final adjournment of congress now
is considered certainty not later
than September /, and possibly a
week earlier The Republican sena-
tors today took up ratification OF the
suggested Democratic program that
the only remaining legislation to be
disposed of would be conference re-
ports, the pending shipping bill, the
emergency revenue bill, the work
mems compensation bill and the gen.
eral deficiency bill. 1t was considered
a fact that all useless speech making
would be abandoned and the ways
creased for speedy action.
Leaders Are Puzzled.
Administration leaders still are puz-
zled as to the quantity OF campaign
material which Candidate Hughes and
his trusted advisers have amassed. So
far as the Mexican issue is concerned
they have exact knowledge But on
matters of international affairs, it is
mysterious. and as result the plans
for the cabinet taking the stump are
uncompleted 1t is understood that
certain of the governmental depart
ments are quietly being investigated
to learn how information, considered
confidential and securely protected in
the files, got into the possession of the
Republicans.
Will Read Acceptance.
The president is expected to read.
his speech OF acceptance to the cabi-
net probably tomorrow 1t is about
complete although it is very likely
that it will be added to in order to
specifically reply to the Hughes argu.
ments, which are being made on the
stump. The administration, it is an.
nounced, intends to accept complete
responsibility for both its foreign and
Mexican policies and to insist that the
outcome of it shows to the American
people that it needs no defense.
Present plans are for the president
and Mrs. Wilson to go to Shadow
Lawn for the notification about the
first of September
The president will then rest there,
until the latter part of the month,
when he is expected to make a mum.
Der OF short speech making trips. He
probably will not get into the cam.
paign until the first week in October.
