SOMEWHAT MOLLIFIED
Over Rumor That City Council Will En-
large Water Mains.

Retinues of Board of Trade men, mem
bers Of the Granite Manufacturers, Quar-
riers' and Merchants associations will
not descend upon the city council to-
night. This much was decided to-day.
after it had been announced that the
varied interests represented in the fore
going category would meet in the peo-
Piles room at city hall to urge action in
the matter OF providing more water
mains and better all-around facilities for
! fighting fire. 1t is said that the granite
men, merchants and professional men
have been placated by the promise that
action is just around the corner and will
be reached within few days.
Since the visit of New England lnsur-
ance Exchange engineers in Barre last
April, there has been an mdercurrent OF
feeling that steps to correct certain
short -comings in the water and fire de-
partments should not be delayed. Thus
far the city council has not achieved any
tangible results, although it Is stated
that report from the engineers has been
in Barre for several weeks. Precautions
taken at Washington, D. G., to preserve
the Declaration of Independence in the
shaded archives of the capitol, according
to the facetious statement OF one au-
thority. have been adopted at city hall
with such success that the engineering
document probably will be preserved in
definitely.
Recently, however. heavy consign
ment of pipe was ordered for the water
department and several main extensions
are projected in the stoneshed districts.

Therefore, He May Insist on
denomination of Vice
President Marshall
SOME DELEGATES
OPPOSING HIM
st. Louis Convention to Be
Stirred over Woman
Suffrage Plank

st. Louis, June l3-The delegates to
the Democratic national convention
which viii open at noon tomorrow, were
interested to-day in the questions wheth.
er Vice President Marshall will be nomi-
mated by acclamation or whether some
OF the favorite sons will insist upon go-
ing before the convention and the prob
able action of the delegates regarding
the suffragists' demand for an unequivo-
cal declaration in the platform for equal
rights.
Sentiment for Marshall's re-nomina-
tion appears strong. Talk about nomi-
mating Secretary OF War Baker ended al
most as soon as it started, and it is
said that Gov. John r. Morehead of Ne
braska may withdraw his name as a can
didate. 1t is reported that President
Wilson sent word he regarded Indiana as
an important battle ground and wanted
the delegates TO act as unit in re.
nominating the vice president. Seere
tary Baker is due TO arrive late to-
day and he is understood to be bringing
the final drafts of the planks that were
the most interesting to the president.
William Jennings Bryan arrived to-
lay 10 report the convention. He said
that this is an opportune time for the
Democrats to get most of the Progress
sives, who are not satisfied with the
Jhicago convention results, he claimed.

MORE TROOPS FOR BORDER.
U. S. Government win Place $500 Ad-
ditionaI Soldiers.

Washington, D. c., June l3.-With l.,
500 additional regular troops ordered X
the Mexican border last night and re
ports of the rapid spread of anti Amer
ican feeling continuing TO pour in from
Iconsuls all over northern Mexico, admin.
istration officials made no attempt to
disguise their uneasiness 1t was ad-
mitted that there is growing alarm over
what the agitation may produce and the
possibility OF an attack on General
Pershing's expedition
No case of attack on the persons of
American residents in Mexico has been
reported, although there have been one
or two attacks on vacant consulates and
other American property.
Part of the increa sing apprehension
here is due to the renewed raids in the
Laredo region. Officials gave the i'm
preston of having reason to believe a
serious purpose was behind the bandit
raid on the Coleman ranch. Three raid
ers were killed and three captured. one
report said, adding that they attempted
to burn a railroad bridge near Laredo
but failed
The new force sent TO join General
Funston's border patrol, Secretary Baker
said, was to fill in gaps in the guard such
as that near Laredo. 1t will be composed
of ten companies of coast artillery and
a battalion of engineers. The artillery
men will be withdrawn from fortifca
tions between Portland, Me, and Sandy
Hook, and the engineers 60 from bar
aoks in this city. The secretary said
there was no present intention of call
ing out additional National Guard reg
iments for border duty.

LONDON PRESS SEES
STRENGTH IN HUGHES
If the Colonel Supports Him President
Wilson's Defeat Prophe
sled,

| London, June l3.--Comment of English
papers on the nomination of Justice
Hughes by the Republican party is gen
erally in favor OF the justice.
The Mail states that the nomination
| OF Hughes has divided the Progressive
iparty, at least, and adds:
The Republican party has put forth
its strongest candidate"
The Times sees in Hughes a candidate
who will receive the appreciation of both
the old guard and the seeding Progress
sives of the G. o. p The Times char
actefkes Hughes as an "uncompromising
American, first, last and all the time"
The Evening News finds that the war
comments of Hughes have been vigorous,
but complains because of their vague
ness
His statements are not surprising and
furnish good ground for Rooseyelt's die
tum that Hughes is like Wilson, except
for his whiskers," said The News. "but
if the party unites, Wilson viii find
Hughes a formidable opponent"
The Globe predicts Wilson's defeat if
Colonel Roosevelt whole heartedlv sup
ports Hughes. The Pail Mall Gazette re-
fers to Hughes as perhaps the best rep
resentative Of high mindedness in pol
itics that could be found" and adds:
Whether he win disclose more sym
pathy for the allies depends upon the ne
gotiations by his managers for the sup |
port of Roosevelt"
The Evening Standard says the Ger
man Americans rushed to the conclusion |
tha4 IT,,gbass ovYnna tbiau xrara With Enr
lands enemies but that the grounds for
this fear have not been substantiated."
The Westminster Gazette says "In
view of Hughes statement, Roosevelt has
no motive for splitting the party and it
IS generally assumed that he win use his
to enlist his followers in
united attack upon the Democratic posi-
.ion."

cutting the first crop, this year from his
alfalfa field. All those who arc inter
ested in alfalfa and its culture are in
vited to visit the field Thursday aft

the crop will be in the process of cur
ing. County Agent f. H. Abbott will be
present and will take up the alfalfa
growing in considerable detail. Come and
see for yourself what this crop is worth.

illustrated by the heavy crop that c. C..
