tation of the suffrage plank of the
Democratic platform was sought from

decided by the states, not by federal
action, and still held to his refusal to
urge the passage of the Susan B. An
thony suffrage amendment to the con-
Stitution.
Mrs. Hooker said Charles E. Hughes,
the Republican nominee, also would
''be reached by suffrage workers.

TO Get SOLDIER
Pershing Threatened to Attack
Carranza Stronghold.
Mexicans Captured Trooper
Who Dropped Out of Ranks.
BY EDMOND BEHR.

General Pershing's Headquarters in
the Field. June 21.-General Perish
ing threatened to attack the town of
Nuevas Casas Grandes when an
American soldier was made prisoner
by the Carranzista patrol. The man
had dropped out of the ranks of a
regiment marching into camp at Co.
lonia Dublan due to a sudden attack
of illness.
News of the capture of the soldier
was brought to General Pershing, who
Immediately sent messenger de-
handing that the American be re-
leased Immediately or the town would
be attacked. Orders were at the same
time issued to a squadron of cavalry
to prepare to march against the town.
Stripped of Arms.
When the messenger reached the
Carranzista stronghold he discovered
that the soldier had been released, but
his equipment and arms had been
retained. The messenger, in General
Pershing's name, demanded that these
be given him.
This for the time being closed the
incident.
When brought to camp the soldier
said he had been suffering during the
march and fallen some distance be-
hind his command. His company was
in sight as he approached Nuevas
Casas Grandes and he was still upon

They took me to the cuartel," said
the soldier, land subjected me to a
searching inquiry as to the number of
American soldiers in the several camps
along the line of communication, the

lery division and the number of men

Inasmuch as the soldier made pris-

Significance at this time.

told to w. E. Atchison. county attor-
ney. today:
The grandmother has some property
and she has grandson II years OF
age. The grandson has been gone for
some time but returned to Topeka
about two weeks ago.
Shortly after his return a stranger
called at her residence and told her he
was a special officer of a railroad
company, that her grandson had
broken into a furniture car and dam
aged the furniture therein to the ex-
tent of about 500. He also stated
that unless she paid for the damage
her grandson would be arrested; that
there was good case against him.
The grandmother wanted to protect
the boy. She says she agreed to the
alleged detectives plan. And that plan
was for her to send 500 by the grand
son to the police station where a re-
ceipt would be waiting. The boy, she
said, took the $500 and started for the
police station. He did not return. She
visited the station and asked for the
receipt. The police knew nothing
about it. Neither did they have the
500.
The boy and the alleged special Of
ficer were both in town Tuesday but
they had not been located today.

DRY PLANK IN 1920
State Chairman of Wisconsin Party
Says Demand Will Win Then.

La Crosse, Wis, June 21.-"Prohibi-
ton in 1920" though not victory for
the Prohibition party, was predicted
by National Chairman Vinton Hin
shaw, at the opening of the second
days session of the Prohibition state
convention here today. Mr.. Hinshaw
called particular attention to the ac-
ton of the Progressive national con-
vention at Chicago, which after refus-
ing to put a dry plank in the plat
form, stood up en- masse to show sym
pathy with the prohibition idea.
He said the Prohibition party was
now the natural heir of the Progress
sive organization and declared four
years hence it would be impossible to
keep prohibition out of the platform
of either of the great parties.
Today's session was devoted to the
adoption of the platform and nomina-
ton of candidates for state offices.

CUBA To Be NEUTRAL
Officials Announce Nation Will Not
Take Sides in Expected War.

Havana, June 21.-Cuba is prepar-
ing to observe rigorous neutrality in
the event of war between the United
States and Mexico. Many Mexicans
here who are expecting to use Cuba as
a base of operations are doomed to
disappointment.
Secretary of State Desvernine said
that war between two friendly nations
would be very lamentable to Cuba
especially so as one nation, the United
States, was more to Cuba even than a
friend, for which reason it would be
necessary to establish rigorous neutral
ity.

to the jury.

They might not draw the distinction
that they are trying the defendant for

States Attorney Dady argued for
their admission on the broad ground
that an illicit love affair eliminating

reading the entire series of epistles.

known in her early childhood as the
"White House Baby" has been asso-
clated with Red Cross work and is now
aiding the work Of the allies in the

false reports of her engagement since
she was presented to society.
Before going abroad to aid in car
ing for the blind she devoted several
months to studying the system in use
in the Pennsylvania Institute for the
Instruction Of the Blind, so when she
was ready to offer her services she
was qualified to render service. Miss
