H J GILES RALLY IN NEW YORK
 JULY 31..

NEW YORK, July 13. - The off cial notification of Hughes will be made at Carnegie hall on the night of July 31, at which time there will be a gathering of all the principal Repub- licans of the country.
 Both Roosevelt and Taft have been invited to attend and the actions of these two men, who have not been under the same roof since the Repub- lican convention in Chicago four years ago caused their estrangement, will be watched with interest by the poli- ticians of the country.
 Taft already has declared that he is willing to talk from the same plat form with Roosevelt in support of Hughes, but the attitude of the c"ionel is open to question.

BELG|AMS AGAIN RETURNING
 HOME

THE HAGUE. Netherlands. July 13. -(Correspondence of the Associated Press. D-From a million after the fall of Antwerp, the number of Belgian re- fugees in Holland has declined to about 65,00O today, according to of. ficial information given to the As sociated Press. The rest of the terror stricken throngs which poured over the Dutch frontier have returned to their homes in Belgium. or gone to England or France, and to some small extent, to America.
 Numerous Belgians are still arriv- ing from over the border, driven out by the hard conditions of existence there, but this accession is apparently counterbalanced by the outflow from Holland in various directions. Of the 65000 still enjoying Dutch hospitality 5000 are now accommodated in four refugee camps at Ede, Nunspeet, Gou- da and Uden, while the remainder are scattered among private families.
 Apart from several million dollars provided by voluntary donations, the country's hospitality had up to the end of last year cost the Dutch gov ernment some $5,O0O,O0O, while sum of $2,O00,OOO has been voted for the current year that will, unless peace ar rives meantime, have to be raised to probably $3,000000. The Belgian gov ernment's offer of reinforcement was generously declined.
 Any needy Belgians are free to en- ter the refugee villages, or if private families care to keep them, and there is no objection on the part of the To- cal authorities, the burgomaster is em- powered to allow 14 American cents day per adult towards their main tenance and 8 cents per child. while the silent sufferers belonging to the better classes, so-called "pauvres hon. teux," of whom there are something under 2,0OO, receive 2S cents day per person through a special committee.
 Excellent arrangements have been made in the matter of education. Un- der the direction of Dutch-Belgian commission, as many as AS primary schools have been established, with 1, 300 scholars, in which instruction is given by certificated Belgian teachers Secondary schools have also been set Jun at The Hague. Amsterdam and Middleburg, while an "atheneum" es- tablished at Flushing, numbers 125 pupils. There are. in addition, tech nical schools destined for both in termed Belgian soldiers and refugees. Grants are made to these various in stitutions by the Dutch and Belgian governments.
 The entire work of relief promises to be a lasting honor to Holland and l it's traditional hospitality.

EPIDEMIC TAXES ANOTHER BIZ
 SPURT

NEW YORK, July 13. - Twenty four deaths and IF new cases of. in faAtile paralysis in the past twenty four hours mark another increase in the epidemic which now holds this city in it's grasp.
 Yesterday there was a decrease in the number of deaths, and new cases reported, and it was felt that the cpl demic had spent itself, and that con ditions would improve steadily. The high number reported today, however, has dispelled any such hopes, and the board of health has renewed it's activi- ties fin combating the disease.
 Since the outbreak of the paralysis epidemic in this city there have been l, ,557 children stricken. Of these 31l have died.
