THERE WAS LIVER NEWS THAN
THE TRUST PRESS PRINTED
The trust press this morning
thought their readers would be much
more interested in the car census
which is going to determine for the
traction commission exactly how the
majority of people go to and from
their work than about a riot which
occurred at 93d st. and Cottage Grove
av when car after car passed, refus-
ing to stop and take on passengers.
Yesterday the supervisors began
to check up on the Indiana av car
line to prepare the first instalment
of a report costing something like
100000 to tell ChicagOans whether
or not they need subways and to bet
ter the service generally.
The through route No. cars,
which carry passengers from the loop
to South Chicago, are always crowd
ed and out around 93d street people
sometimes wait a half hour before a
motorman will stop and let them on.
Last night the men got tired of wait
ing and as the cars passed, only 3
minutes apart, they were shOWered
with bricks.
Capt. Nootbaar of South Chicago
station has detailed q SOecia1 number
of policemen on Cottage Grove av.
between $50 and $50 each evening.
Aid. Block, representing the ward
in which this occurred, has ordered
the traction bureau of the depart
ment of public service to investigate.

EXPECT HUGHES TO LEAD.
Statement of Votes Claimed for Diff.
fcrent Candidates on First Ballot.

Chicago, June G.-Republican organ
iZation leaders asserted Monday that
Charles f. Hughes would get more
votes on the first ballot for the presi-
Dental nomination than any of his
competitors. They estimate his
strength on the initial ballot at be.
tween 175 and 225. The organization
forces estimate Roosevelt's first ballot
strength at less than $50, but say his
vote will grow when the favorite son
candidates begin to drop out of the
race. This situation, it is said. may
lead to temporary combination be-
tw cen the organization and friends of
Roosevelt to fight Hughes in the
early hours of the voting.
What will happen after the first
few ballots are taken and the favorite
son candidates begin quitting the
race nobody seems able to predict at
this time.
Following is statement of the
number of votes claimed by the man
ayers of the different candidates on
the first ballot:

A Mistake.

correspondent about the Mexican situ-
alton.
Il don't believe in swivel-chair cam
paignng" he said. Discretion will be
left to the generals in the field. Signs
that look hopeful to the man back
home in the swivel chair may prove
the reverse in the field itself.
Its like the creditor who rang and
asked if Mr.. Spender was at home.
Ives, sir. walk right in. SIR said
the footman, cordially. Mr.. Spender
is at home, sir
THANK goodness said the cred
!tor. I'm going to see my money at
last
"'Oh, don't make that mistake, sir.
said the footman. If Mr.. Spender
had any money he wouldn't be at
