HUGHES TO HAVE
CHICAGO OFFICE
Refuses to Comment on Report
That He Expects Roosevelt
to Be Nominee Main
tainS Usual Silence.

Washington. D. c.. May 23.-Justice
Hughes has nothing, to say. He does
not wish to notice irresponsible rumors
and neither admits nor denies them.
He has had no communication what
ever with Mr.. Hitchcock. This was the
statement made this morning by the
secretary to Justice Hughes with ref
erence to a report widely published to-
day quoting the Justice as saying to
an unnamed republican leader that he
expected Roosevelt to be the republi-
can nominee and hence it was not nee
essary to discuss anyone else.
The view of republican politicians
here today is that the words attributed
to Justice Hughes, even IL they are
correct, do not essentially change the
situation. Justice Hughes has said
nothing and has done nothing to elirni-
nate himself from the possibility Of
nomination at Chicago. His support
ers continue to be active for him.
Frank H. Hitchcock, who has been
here for a few days, has gone to Chi
cago to open Hughes headquarters and
will continue to organize with a pur-
pose to forcing Hughes nomination.
Hughes supporters are spreading
rumors which have no foundation SO
far as known here, that Cummins ard
one or more other candidates will
withdraw in Hughes favor.

SENATOR CUMMINS IN
HOME TOWN FOR A DAY

Des Moines, Ia, May Ex-senator A.
B. Cummins dropped off in Des
Moines today enroute from Oregon to
washington. The Hughes victory in
Oregon was ascribed by Senator Cum
minis to superior organization work
launched early in the game. Senator
Cummins said that the newest army
bill, providing for 211,000 men, is all
right, although he favored the bill for
100000 men in the Senate. Senator
Cummins Is in good health, but his
voice shows the strain of a strenuous
campaign in OREGON.

already assigned them.

ances. The drivers get from $50 to
$50 a month for II hours work a
day. They want a 1O-hOur day. The
helpers on the wagons get So a week
for a 12-hour day. I have not talked
to any of the officials except c. E.

the boatyards and yacht berths there
after will be busy places twenty-four
hours a day.
Most of the boat owners are good
mechanics and make all repairs to
their boats. After Office hours each
day many visit the wharf and spend
several hours ir overhauling their
boats. Others reverse the method and
visit the boats early in the morning.
SO that in the repair season there is but
little time in the twenty-four hours
that work is not in progress at the
boat yards and other points. Unless
there is a considerable lowering of the
price of gasoline. it may be that the
going into commission of many of the

there will be a considerable curtail
ment of joy riding on the river.
