Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
st. Louis, Mo-, June 12. - For
Wednesday: Keynote speeches.
For Thursday; Speeches and plat
form.
For Friday: More speech making,
one nomination and several score OF
seeonding motions-and speeehes-for
that nomination.
For Saturday: Beginning at mid
night, one roll ON a presidential eandi-
date; one roll call, after some more
speeches, on a viee-presidential candi-
date. This is exactly what the demo-
cratic national convention will do. 1t
didn t require the services Of a clair.
voyant today to figure out the pro.
gram. Any one of the delegates strag-
Cling in today could speak with au-
thority The only point Of interest
was exactly who would make the best
speceh-and on that there was a
chance for just little debate, which
chance was fully utilized in the cor
ridor statesmen talkfest
Another favorito topic Of converse
tion was whether it was going to rain
in st. Louis the way it did in Chicago,
yesterday having started in by being
very moist and oozy

unity of ticket and platform in its

The Work Is Light.
If it were necessary, the democratic
convention could accomplish every bit
Of business before it in one three hour
session. OF course this would involve
considerable curtailment Of Oratory,
but there would be plenty Of time fol-
any action. The only reason why the
conclave will be spread over three days
is because democracy wants the loyal
st. Louis democrats who contributed to
the fund necessary to bring the con.
yention here TO get their money back
Maybe it is superstition also which
will impel the leaders to hold of
nominations until after midnight OF

declared today the platform on which
Senator Stone and President Wilson
have been working probably will serve
the desired purpose.
Various leaders were evasive when
asked about it today. National Chair
man MeCombs, said to be the actual or
iginator, taeitly admitted he was work
| ing with others to bring it to head
"Somebody must adopt the child, -
he said, smiling, and added, "all four
million of it.
Asked pointblank if overtures to pro-
gressive leaders were proposed, he re-
! fused to discuss the matter further.
He maintained the same attitude con
corning any steps that may have been
taken by him in this connection while
in Chicago. Others said, however, that
| the fact that Roosevelt would abandon
! his leadership Of tho progressive party
was not known in Chicago when Ne
/ Combs left there Friday. This made it
altogether unlikely the democratic
chairman had talked with bull moose
/ leaders on the subject. There is every
. indication that the thought was born of
the colonel's message from Oyster Bay
telling his purpose not to take the nomi-
nation.
The definite admission was made by
one democratic leader that certain pro-
gressive leaders were expected in St
Louis in few days. He would not ad'
init, however, that they had been in
vited

Colonel Robert f. Wing, Louisiana
member of the national committee, on
this point, said:

The treatment received by the Loyal
progressive workers at Chicago consti'
tutes oneoof the crimes of American
notifies, is my opinion. Take fellows
like Victor Murdock. for example, who
were led out of the republican party
by Roosevelt, only to be left high and
dry when Roosevelt found there was no
personal success for him. MurdOck 3
political career may be ruined. No one
ever questioned Murdoek's 8 sincereity
and it has been abused shamefully."
"Men like Murdock," he added,
"and William Allen White cannot sup
port Justice Hughes. White has de-
clared since Hughes was nominated that
Hughes milk and water statement on
Amerieanism would prevent progress

NEW CHINESE PRESIDENT
 GENERALLY SUPPORTED
But Southern Provinces Are Slow in Endorsing His Administration.

Picking, July 17.-Generals Feng Kuo-chang NJ Shih-chung and Hang Hsu and many other southern nih- tary leaders have telegraphed to Pres ident Ii Yuan-hun, assuring him of their support He Is very generally supported by the Chinese press in all parts of the republic, and there are indications that the southern pro- vinCes will officially endorse his ad ministrauiOn, although they are some what slow in doing so and have made demand for the removal of certain cabinet members and advisers before they fall in line.
 Strained financial conditions seem somewhat relieved. The new president has consented to turn over six hundred thousand dollars from his own per SOnal savings to assist in reSuming specie payment on the notes of the government banks, The quintuple group of bankers who are holding twenty million dollars surplus of the salt monopoly for the Chinese govern ment have also shown a willingness to turn this money into the treasury.
 Ii Yuan n-hung refused to go to the palace to take the official oath, ard was sworn into office in his own home outside the imperial city. The Ccre- mOny was of extreme simplicity, and only high officials attending.
 MOnarchist newspapers seem to be joining with the republican organs in praising Ii Yuan-hung.
 The Ii Naun-hung administration is keeping as far as possible away from the practices of an emperor. Flags are to be flown at half masts for 27 days in honor of the Iamented presi- dent and all officials are to wear black bands on their left arms after hte European practice Official en- veIopes have black borders half an inch in width, and are sealed with a black stamp.
 Two books are provided at the -ates leading to the presfdentiaI of- flee for the registra tiOn of f0reiEners and Chinese who call to pay their re- specrs to the memory of the dead president.

Suspend Potash Mine DeveIopment.

Berlin, July IT The Federal Council has issued an order probibit- ing the sinking of further shafts for the development of potash mines dur ing the war Work on all shafts begun since July 1914, must be suspended. The ground taken by the Council is that labor is now too scarce in Germany to waste it upon such unnecessary work as opening new potash mines, Not Withstanding the pressure of the war a number of new mines have reached the producing stage during the past two years; and the total number of mines producing or ready to produce potash is now more than 200. Ten years ago it was less than 10.
