two MEN PICKED TO
RENOMINATE WILSON
Democrats in Tangle as to Which New
Jersey Orator Shall Make
Speech.

An interesting mix-up among the New
Jersey delegates to the st. Louis De-
mocratic Convention has arisen over the
question as to who shall have the honor
Of placing President Wilson in nornina-
ton to succeed himself
The President will be put forward at
the St Louis convention as New JERSEYS
''favorite SON candidate for the De-
moCratiC Presidential nomination. and
it will then devolve upon some one of
that States perfervid orators to deliver
a long address Iaudatory Of the Wilson
administration. and offering to the nation
for a second time the name of Wood
row Wilson.
Four years ago IT was John w West
colt, OF Camden, New Jersey, at present
Attorney General Of the State who nomi-
mated Mr.. Wilson. and it is understood
the President already had written to Mr.
WestCott inviting him to make the first
nominating speech and that Mr.. Westcott
had accepted, before White House
officials learned that the New Jersey
delegation had chosen Governor Fielder
to make it

politicians in Washington and New Jersey

IS up to the New Jersey delegates who
selected Governor Fielder without con-
sulting the White House. to withdraw
their choice now that they know the
Presidents wishes.

WILL PROTEST
MAIL SEIZURES
u. S. to Press Pending Con-
troversies with Great
Britain.

Though Germanys efforts to force the
hand Of the United States in dealing with
the British blockade have admittedly
embarrassed President Wilson in his
dealings with Great Britain, this does not
mean that pending controversies with the
British government are to remain dor
mant. Secretary OF state Lansing indi-
rated yesterday that protest would be
mail from the United States TO neutral
countries. 4 protest also will be sent
to Great Britain against holding up of
Red Cross supplies for the central pow
ers.
Secretary Lansing said that negotia-
tions with the British government con-
cernng the blockade would also be con-
tinued
The last British note on the subject
Of mail seizures has admittedly not salts
fed the United States Many protests
from American business men in this
country and abroad have recently reach
ed the State Department. and the Presi-
dent Contemplates making the American
position on this matter definite and clear
to the British government 1t is un-
derstood that Secretary Lansing already
has begun compilation OF data to be used
in a new American note.
It is said that the protests against
mail seizures will be grounded on sew
eral counts. The most important reason
for this governments protests is under
stood TO be the repeated seizure and de-
tention of mail from the United States
to neutral countries.

Committee HOLDS Up
POLICE PENSION BILL
Members of Subcommittee Fail to
Reach Agreement on Changes
to Be Recommended.

Although no insurmGuntable differences
of opinion between members of the House
District Committee over the terms OF the
police and hremen's pension bill are &C.
knowledged, the subcommittee named at
the special meeting a little more than a
week ago has failed to reach an agree
ment on the changes II would recommend
in the original bill. For this reason, II
is improbable that report will be made
at today's meeting Of the fun commit
tee. when the subcommittee was instruct
ed to report.
Questions directed at members Of the
subcommittee yesterday indicated that the
members had been unable to agree,
though the extent or seriousness of the
disagreement was not outlined. 1t was
protested, however, that the measure it.
self was not jeopardized, and that, in
time, report might be expected.
There are indications that at least one
member of the subcommittee, and the
one Is believed to have been responsible
for the reference of the mea sure to a
spcial subcommittee, is opposed to the
terms OF the bill as they affect officers
Of the two departments, believing that
the minimum payment should be lowered,
At least for offcers.

Week. PiIIsbury and Cooperstown.
Both Sent Home without a Score.
On Friday evening the Pills
bury Aggregation of ball players
came over prepared to do their
best to administer a defeat to
Hope but they ha d not fig
ured with the Hope team or
Pitcher Armstrong. Owing to
the poor condition of the roads
the team was a little late in ap.
pearing at the grounds and it
was after seven o'clock when
play started. Armstrong and
Byers were announced as the
Hope battery and Carlson and
Apple for the visitors. The Wis
itors at the bat went out one,
two, three with a strike.out, q
grounder to second and a pop
fly to third. Knob headed the
list and flied out to short, Mill
gan was safe on all error by sec.
ond, stole the next two bases;
Byers flied out to right, Ehred
placed a safe one and Milligan
scored. l.. Miller followed suit.
and advanced Ehred. Moores
swung at a nice one but the
pitcher grabbed it and threw
him out at first.
The second inning looked like
the visitors were going to do
some scoring. Peterson got a
ticket, advanced when Army
fooled Carlson's grounder and
the bases we're full when Bob
Mckay scratched a hit. V. Nc
KAY sat down after three wild
swings. Peterson was forced
out when Holcomb grounded to
Milligan and the side retired
when Ehred handled Bosko's
grounder and pegged to first.
Hope did not score again until
the fourth inning when l.. Mill
er Strengthened out one for two
bases, stole third and scored on
Moores fly. Farris got a hit, ad-
vanced on G. Miller's bunt and
died on second when Army hit
to the pitcher. In the sixth, af-
ter Ehred went out on a ground
er to short, Miller was walked,
went to third when Smith took
a nap and let Moores' fast
grounder 20 through his hands,
Moores taking second, and
scored on a wild pitch. Moores
died or third. In the seventh
Army opened the inning with a
nice clean hit, Knob followed
with another, Milligan laid one
down and advanced both run
ners who scored when Smith
made another bobble on Byers'
drive.
In the eighth P%illsbury made
one more effort to score, having
had no chance since the second
inning. Holcomb landed hard
on a nice one, placing it back of
third base for two bags and
stole after Bosko struck out.
Cough was accredited with a
single but Holcomb was held on
third and Byers made a pretty
peg which caught him off six
feet. The game ended on ac-
count of darkness when Apple
popped one to Dutch on third.
Score, Pillsbury 0, Hope 5.
The game was an interesting
one altho rather one sided and
the crowd was all pulling with

at his best for a shut.out. The
boys worked like a machine be-
