BIOGRAPHIES OF HUGHES
 PRINTED BY FRENCH PREs1
Comment Upon the Nomination is Noi
 Extended.

Paris, June 12. 5.O1 D. m.-Biogra- phies of Charles E. Hughes, the re- publican presidential candidate, were printe dtoday by the French press but comment upon the nomination was not extended.
 The decision of the Chicago con- vention,' says the Temps. teaches one thing we should not forget, name ly, that the European war exercises much less influence on the political af- fairs of America than we had suppos- ed. Questions essentially American guided the convention and conside i- tions of a general character were only incidental
 The Temps adds that MT. Hughes had maintained reserve owing to the judicial position he occupied, favor ing neither one side nor the other in the European conflict so that he will be able scrupulously to follow the principles enunciated by his party.
 The Figaro points out that the can dida1e is well acquainted with Europe. coming here each year and usually visiting Switzerland, where he takes an especial interest in mountain climb : ing. His favorite authors, adds the newspapers, are French, notably Ball. zac and Dumas the elder.

BRITISH FLEET coMPLlMENTED
 BY ADMIRAL JELLIcoE
For the Manner in Which the Ships
 Fought During the Jutland Fight.

London, June F, 7.50 D. m.-In a message to the men of the British fleet, which was given out here official Iy tonight Admiral Jellicoe expressed high appreciation of the manner in which the ships of the fleet had fought during the Jutland sea fight of May 31.
 At this stage, when full informa- ton is unavailable. said the admiral. it is impossible to enter into details, but quite sufficient is known for me to state definitely that the glorious traditions handed down to use by generations of gallant seamen were worthily upheld.
 Weather conditions that were highly unfavorable robbed the feet of the complete victory expected by all ranks. But although it is difficult to obtain accurate information as to the enemy's losses, have no doubt we shall find they certainly were not less than our own. Sufficient information already has been received for me to make that statement with confidence
 T hope to give the fleet fuller in- formation On this point at an early date. do not wish to delay appre- citation of the work of the fleet and my confidence in a future complete vic tory.
 .'The wonderful spirit and fortitude of the wounded fills me with the great est admiration. I am more proud ! than ever of the honor of commanding a fleet manned by such officers anc men,

 Many Deposits-Few Withdrawals.
 President Chester E. Child of the Putnam Savings bank announced on Monday afternoon that the deposits at the bank since it was reopened for business April 15 were in excess of the withdrawals. President Child said he regarded this as a. most conclusive bit of evidence of the confidence of the bank, which has deposits of two and three-quarter millions. When the bank was reopened, after having been closed from Dec. 29. 1913. by order of the state bank commissioners, it was with the privilege of paying out only 10 per cent. of his account to each 4deposftor. It is considered quite remarkable that the withdrawals to date represent only 1 1-2 per cent. of the total of deposits.

 Effort to Establish coIored Mission.
 Mrs. James Bush of Potter street is showing comInendabIe effort to estab- fish a mission llere for colored people. 3drs. Bush said Monday that she is anxious as are others, to esta blish here a mission for colored people, but to do this there must be active work ious that the mission be started, if only in small way, for she is sure that it can be made to grow into a church of much value.
 In an interview Mrs. Bush said:
 Tie colered people as a rule are very intelligent, but until we ourselves recognize the good points in our race and strive to develop them we cannot expect others to. Until we move as one person in trying to prove our abil- lty 10 carry OH a church, we must re- main just as we are. When you sec a person trying to rise and also trying to get other persons to rise, it is better in such eases not to be a weight tc such a person. If we ever intend te be an independent race. we must now begin ao praise a worthy brother and encourage a good many more"
 Mrs. Bush referred in her statement l to he many facts concerning the col ored people in the Negro Year Book these facts showing what can be done by cooperation and constant work She also expressed her belief tl.at tht cclored people. united in mission worl here, would find many compensation! and much solace.
