Forty-fve hundred members of the
Pop Kenny Association. in two double
decker barges, were on their way home
from an excursion TO Forest View

from the foremost of the barges. An
astute tugboat captain, sensing a
tragedy. telephoned Manhattan Police
Headquarters that murder was afoot IN
the harbor
The message was relayed to Brooklyn
headquarters, and when the barges
locked at the foot of Hamilton Avenue
Captain Conboy and a dozen policemen
were on hand to make the usual ar
rests. None was necessary, they soon
became convinced.
A key OF beer had blown up while in
process of being tapped.

WIFE OF Is MAKES
THIRD SUICIDE ATTEMPT
Go Back to Parents" Says Hus-

lBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune J

Bridgeport, Conn, June l1.-Fo- the
third time since her marriage, four
years ago, in Plains, Penn, Mrs. John
S. Kline, eighteen years old, to-day
tried to kill herself by gas poisoning

7. R. AND HUGHES
INTERESTLOND0N
Newspapers Speculate on
Republican Nominees
Standpoint on War.

London, June 12.-Tho morning
newspapers to-day devote considerable
space TO the result of the Republican
convention held in Chicago, and in sew
eral cases print biographies a column
long Of Charles +. Hughes, nominee
for President. The articles include
discussion Of the probable attitude Of
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt as well as
speculation on the probable standpoint
of Mr. Hughes toward the European
war.
"The Republican party conducted it's
convention with sagacity and dsci-
pine" says THE Times" THE cam
paign between Mr.. Hughes and Presi-
dent Wilson probably will be the most
important and most bitter since the
Civil War, for behind the immediate
issues involved lies the whole problem
Of the future attitude of the United
States toward the largest questions Of
international policy.
THE position of Colonel Roosevelt
admittedly is difficult lie sees the
ldIbt u tlc losut' llNOlNcu 40
clearly as any of his countrymen, but
time and skill are needed to educate
his party into a coalition with the Re-
publicaAs.
Europeans, in the height of their
tremendous conflict, will naturally
speculate in their own minds upon the
effects of the election upon the Euro
pean struggle, but the less such specu-
lations are expressed the better, for
they are likely TO be wrong and pos
sibly mischievous.
"Whoever becomes President, the
ultimate decision OF how far America
is to take share in the common bur
dens and tasks of other progressive
peoples Of the world ultimately rests
not with the new President, but with
the American people"

Hughes Nomination No
Balm for Hyphenates,
He Says.
ALL REPUBLICANS
WILL BE UNITED
Declares Justices Assertions on
Americanism Will Be More
Vigorous than Wilson's.

All factions Of the Republican party
will be drawn together once more. un-
der the leadership Of Justice Hughes.
while the hyphenstes, as such. will
find cold comfort in his nomination.
This. in brief is the way George ".
Wickersham. ex-United States Attor-
ney General, sums up the probable
effects of the nomination Of the Su
preme Court magistrate.
Il believe the nomination of Mr..
Justice Hughes" said Mr.. Wickers-
ham, will bring about the reunion Of
the Republican party. There will, of
course, be some extremists in the
Progressive party who will not sup
port him, but there will be a practi-
cal amalgamation of the two parties"
Asked what percentage Of the Pro-
g-essive party, in his opinion, would
not support Mr.. Hughes. Mr.. Wick
ersham replied;
Il haven't had time to make an
analysis Of the situation sufficiently
to determine"
Spoke on Hyphen Before War.
When the question Of the hyphen-
ates came up Mr.. Wickersham said:
81 do not like 10 consider the posi-
bility Of hyphensted vote"
The attention OF Mr.. Wickersham
was then called to some Chicago dis
patches declaring that many German
newspapers favored Mr.. Hughes.
THAT was probably due TO the wish
rather than an expectation" said Mr..
Wickersham. "In speeches that Mr..
Hughes delivered before this question
Of hyphenates arose he praised the
good qualities of the whole German
American people. This, however. was
before the question came up of pri-
mary allegiance to Germany and sec
ondary allegiance to the United
States. The hyphenates will find cold
fort in Mr. Hughes's nomination"
Mr.. Wickersham added that the nor
NAL vote of the Republican party
which would be cast for Mr.. Hughes
would insure his election.
Laughs at Conference Story.
"Mr. Hughes will give a more Wig
orous assertion Of Americanism than
Mr.. Wilson has or can"
lie laughed at the stories printed
in some of the newspapers that he
had secret conference with Justice
Hughes in Washington on Saturday
and that thereafter he rushed 10 Oy-
ster Bay and conferred with Colonel

The fees of

NNHE executor Of every

State is entitled to a
definite and limited COM
pensation for his services.
This compensation is in
the form of a commission
based on the amount of
money received and paid
out by the executor.
The rates are fixed by law
as follows:
50 on the first $1,000
2Hs e on the next $4,000
IL on all above $1,000
The legal rate is the same

may be other expenses besides
this commission. The admins.

generally not only more bust.

than administration by a less
