WASHINGTON. juno 17.-Tentative

Post-Oflce Department to handle mail
by wagons and automobiles along the
line of the Norfolk and Southern Rail-
road. between Norfolk. Va, and Char
lotte. n. c.. II the railroad carries out a.

threat verbally some time ago, and
though no formal notice has been given.
the department is preparing TO have the
mails carried through the territory
from nearest points on other roads If
necessary. Eleven demands OF tho Nor
folk and Southern were refused, the
most important OF them being for pay
on back hauls TO stations having no IA
cilities for handling mail at night.
n provision eliminated by the House
from the pending -offics appropri-

HUGHES DECIDES ON MAN
To DIRECT HIS CAMPAIGN
May Be Col. William Hayward, of
New York, but Is Not Frank
H. Hitchcock.
ANNOUNCEMENT ON MONDAY
Bridgehampton, l.. l., Believed to Be
in Lead as Summer Headquarters
for Republican Candidate-Steady
Stream Of Callers During Day.

Especial TO The Times Dispatch
WASHINGTON. June l7.-Charles E
Hughes to-day decided definitely upon
the man who will manage his cam
paign for the presidency.
Announcement OF the name of the
candidate probably will be made on
Monday Immediately after the confer
ence of the Republican candidate with
the subcommittee.
It will not be Frank H. Hitchcock
that much is known.
A younger man and one not so promi-
nently identified with the old manage
ment OF the party is more to he de-
sired.
On the heels of the news that ma
tional chairman has been selected there
was a revival of the story that Colonel
William Hayward. public service COM
missioner of New York. would be the
chosen one. Mr.. Hughes would not dis
cuss the matter Hayward, who is Mr..
Hughes's personal friend, had long
conference in New York last Friday.
Hayward was the manager Of Whit
mans gubernatorial campaign two
years ago. And. too. If Mr.. Hitchcock
is to be placated at all, it may be borne
in mind that Hayward and Mr. Hitch
cock are close friends-the former hav-
ing acted as Hitchcock's assistant in
the Taft campaign of 1905.
Doubt is expressed here as to Hay
wards acceptance of the position. since
1t would involve an abandonment of his
15,o00-a-year position.
|. Moreover, Hayward Is being quoted
by friends as having declared the other
day that he did not want the job.
TENTATIVE AGREEMENT

The news regarding the national
craftsmanship, which comes from a re-
liable source and tentative agree.
ment on summer headquarters. were the
big developments in the campaign to-
day.
Bridg gehampton, l.. l.. is in the lead
as the resting place of the candidate
for July at least. 1t has not yet been
definitely decided upon. DR.. Collins
Carter, brother Of Mrs. Hughes. owns
an estate there. He has offered 1t to
Mr.. Hughes. and 1t Is being considered
favorably. But there are several other
places also under consideration, one or
two Of them in the mountains.
Mr.. Hughes prefers the mountains.
but Mrs. Hughes will go to New York
with him tomorrow night and look
over the place at Bridgehampton, which
is midway between Easthamptoh and
Southampton.
If Mrs, Hughes Is satisfied, the can

Businesses Will
Not Be Interrupted To-
Day---Only Luxuries
Cannot Be Bought.

Richm monders this morning will awake
to find themselves under the ban of the
blue laws. but, except for their inability
10 purchase gasoline, cigars or confec-
tions. they will hardly be conscious Of
the fact that Major Werner and his
men have 'clamped on the lid"
The situation riEhted itself yester-
day afternoon when the final confer
ence between the chief and the various
police precinct captains was held Then
il was that the confusion occasioned by
the conflicting rumors relative to the
number and variety Of arrests which
would be made to-day was straight
ened out.
Contrary to the first reports, the tele-
phones will be working, and Faithful
John will be enabled to make a date"
for his Sunday afternoon walk or car
ride with the winsome Priscilla. Tho
police Will not interfere with the op-
GRAFTON Of the street cars Nor will
telegraph operators be given an en-
forced holiday or happy vacationists be
forced to remain in the city another
day because Of the inability to have
their baggage transferred or the abb
sence Of railroad or steamboat trans
portation facilities.
ARREST ONE WORKER
IN EACH INDUSTRY
Richmond will be under the ban of
the blue laws, but their enforcement.
in the opinion OF public people, will
be sane and common-sense OF course,
those acts especially prohibited Will
not be permitted, and any violators
will be arrested. However. Major
Werner has decided that, as future en-
forcement Of the laws will be controlled
by the courts Interpretation of tho
word necessity" the activities of
Richmond people will not be curtailed
at the present. time.
He will arrest one Sunday worker
from each business or establishment.
which as a matter Of necessity or con-
venience operates on Sunday. and hale
him to court that a test may be made.
The arrest Of this one man will not
interfere with the business or work q
hardship on the establishment, yet 1t
will permit the police to secure an in
depreciation of the law as basis upon
which to work in tho future.

BERLIN BLAMES MAYOR
People Indignant With Him on Account
of increasing Shortage
of Food,


Especial Cable 20 The Times-Dispatch 7
BERLIN, June l7.-Press and people
OF Berlin are indignant with the!h.
Mayor. whom they blame for the In
creasing shortage OF food. and accuse
OF having stocked his own house with
such articles OF food as the population
are clamoring for in vain.
The conservative Berliner Morgen
Post says:
The Mayor OF Berlin appears to be
blissfully ignorant of the real situa tion
here 1t was he. we are told, who sug-
gested the 'meatless' days. which was
absolutely superhuous in view OF tho
fact that it would be exceedingly diff
cult to find in all Berlin a single fam
lily that does not have to get along
without meat at least four days q week.
we have written before of the crowds
that gather outside OF the big stores.
1t Is absolutely scandalous that after
Two years OF warfare the municipal
authorities have not put an end to this
gathering OF quarreling and fighting
crowds. What a wonderful proof OF
our talent for organization"

SAN ANTONIO. TEN. June IL
United States Army officers at head
quarters here tonight regarded the
Mexican situation as most serious
Assuming that the de facto Mexican
government would authorize, General
Alfredo Ricaut to carry out his threat
to attack any American force that
crossed tho line into Mexico. some de-
clared their belief that war was almost
unavoidable.
That opportunity was presented to-
day, when more than 800 men of the
Third Cavalry crossed the river below
Brownsville In pursuit OF bandits that
attacked lttlo detachment of the
Twenty-siXth Infantry at San Benito
last night.
General James Parker, comma nding
at Brownsville, sent cavalry securing
the country In the vicinity OF San
Benito and on hot trail" discovered
by Lieutenant Newman. commanding
Troop Fl. of the Third Cavalry. The
Americans were sent toward the border.
The trail led across the river and
Lieutenant Newman led his troop across
late in the forenoop.
Major Anderson, with squadron Of
the same regiment and machine-gun
company, closed In on the same trail,
and early in tho afternoon followed
the lieutenant and his troop into Mex
leo. He was too late for the blood
less skirmish between Troop II and the
bandits, which occurred almost inn
mediately after the crossing. General
Parker indicated no one on either side
was injured. The bandits fled without
great resistance.
ANDERSON AND FORCES
STILL ON MEXICAN SIDE
The pursuit was continued Late
to-day Major Anderson had moved his
force up the river towards Matamoros,
the Mexican town opposite Brownsville
He was still on the Mexican side to-
night.

SEGREGATED DISTRICTS
VANISH FROM STATE
Closing OF the segregated districts OF
Norfolk and Newport News at mid
night last night was the first action
taken as a result OF Virginia's new
custer law, by which public officials of
trust may be removed for not enforcing
all statutes. The measure was passed
by the recent Legislature TO secure
| rigid enforcement of the prohibition
and antivice laws. but it also gives
renewed life to blue laws" that for
years have remained all but forgotten.
One OF the most perplexing prob
lens the authorities have to face is
contained In a law written on the
statute books many years ago, pro-
hibiting Unnecessary" work on Sunday.
Earlier in the week word had gone
forth that the officials would take no
chances. and would enforce every law
to the letter. but last night indications
were that in the majority of the cities
OF Virginia more liberal interpreta-
ton would be made, and what prom
ised to be the "bluest" Sunday in Vir-
ginia history probably will not fulfill
first expectations
Various commemorative attorneys
have given conflicting opinions as TO
what the word necessary" embraces.
Richmond officials have admitted them
selves puzzled as to what course to
pursue; test cases will be made for
future guidance.
Beyond closing the segregated dis
tricts, Norfolk will not be greatly af-
fected under the new order. Under
an opinion by Commonwealth Attor-
