Ultra stylish shoes have toppings of

For evening wear high satin boots

for recommendation, have buttons
matching the satin. These boots usually
are worn in colors matching the cos

CHICAGO, June 5.-History for
women was in the making tonight
when the Woman's party was launched
under the auspices of the Congress
sional Union for Woman Suffrage
The night meeting followed the one
held by the women during the day
marking the opening of their three
day convention here in an effort to
promote their cause and to induce the
progressives and republicans to put
an equal suffrage plank in their party
platforms and to obtain their endorse
ment of the Susan B. Anthony amend
ment to the constitution. This is the
first national Woman's party ever
launched.
Miss Maude Younger of California,
the temporary chairman, made the
keynote speech. She said the woman $
party would consider no other issue
than equal suffrage at present and
that it would throw its influence to
that party which supported the An
theny amendment
More than 1000 delegates from all
over the country were in attendance
a committee of 100 expert LOBBYISTS
was selected to work among the dele
gates and leaders of the progressives
/ and republicans to obtain equal suf

MOVEMENT TIRE ATENS DISASTER

Efforts of the progressive national
committee today to fix a time for
nominations in their convention re-
suited in conflicting statements of
what actually had been agreed upon.
On one hand it was said that a nom
nation would be deferred until Satur-
day and on the other hand ii was
denied that such delay had been
agreed upon and that a nomination
was possible not later than Thurs
day.
After the progressive national COM
mittee mad held its conference and
the leaders had been urged to exert
every effort to hold the delegates in
check until late in the week, inter-
mediaries between republican and pro-
gressive headquarters began to oper-
ate. The result of several prelimin-
airy conferences brought Senator Lodge
and Mr.. Perkins together. Senator
! Lodge was told that Mr.. Perkins
wished to confer with him on POSSIBLE
, tiles for harmony.
When Senator Lodge went into the
conference it was admitted that the
purpose was to discuss convention
plans in an effort to reach some agree
ment to avert another third party. The
i conference continued nearly two hours
during which Mr. Perkins frequently
was called to the telephone. Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr., George Won l. Meyer,
William Loeb, Jr., Former Senator
Joseph NJ. Dixon of Montana, and other
| intimate political associates of Colonel
Roosevelt were in adjoining rooms.
81 have been talking to Senator
Lodge about the whole situation re-
garding the two conventions, the ques-
ton of a candidate upon whom all may
agree. the subject of the platform and
everything that enters into the prob
lens facing u.s. said Mr.. Perkins. 1--WE
have come to no conclusion about any
thing but are to meet later tonight
when something may be accomplished.
Senator Lodge said that general con
dtions had been discussed relating t
the approaching conventions, and thaf
he expected a further conference. A!
Senator Lodge left the conference, Os.
car i. Straus, one of the progressive
leaders, protested against the nomina
ton of Hughes on the ground that i
would demean the supreme court.

Miss Burns laid the blame for the

Gratis as republicans had voted for

thirds of the democrats voted against

discussed. 1t was said also that the
Roosevelt men had made a very strong
showing regarding the possibility of
Roosevelt's capturing the republican
nomination and had submitted figures
to the republican leaders to support
their claims.
Some of the republican leaders who
talked tonight with Mr.. Perkins are
convinced that no matter what the
leaders would prefer. to do, the rank
and file of the progressive party is de-
termined to nominate Roosevelt. They
predict that this will be done before
the republican convention dominates
and if the republicans name Justice

The Times correspondent at British

of the German artillery fire
"As soon as they had entered the

enemy" the correspondent says, the
Canadians found themselves again un-

had preceded the first enemy assault

PETROGRAD (Via London) June 3.
The Russian press urges the entente
powers to bring pressure to bear on
Greece because of the antagonistic at
titude of that country. Something OF
sensation has been caused by the
article especially that in the Boerse
Gazette expressing the opinion that
the king of Greece would do well to
take a rest of some duration at some
place better for his health than
Athens
The other papers denounce "the po-
litical felony of Greece toward the
entente. The Novoe Vremya consid-
ers the measures taken at Saloniki as
insufficient and calls upon the entente
powers to take the necessary steps at
Pieraus and Athens.
