Ing High Cost Of Living Give U.
s. Attorney Slattery Tip.

Additional indictment In the food
investigation in Cincinnati may be
returned by the grand jury Friday

facts discovered by the grand jury re-
garding control of food markets by a
certain class Of dealers.
"In barring to the public by means
of official reports to the court the
conditions in regard to what may be
legal but indefensible handling of
foodstuffs at time like this, the grand
jury will be concurring in the advice
of Attorney General A. Mitchell Pal
mer that 'pitiless publicity be employ
ed in the food investigation throughout
the country" said Prosecutor Louis H..
Capelle.

NOTED COMEDY IS
THE Big ATTRACTION
FOR FRIDAY NIGHT
Geo. M. Cohen's "Seven Keys to Bald.
pate" to Be Played By Perciyal
Vivian g. Company Of Twelve
Broadway Players.

Friday night is play night at Chau-
tauqua.
The management promises 300
laughs, much mystery and much
amusement. 1t is the big entertain
ment feature of the week and q large
audience is expected as tickets have
been secured by out-of-town folks.
The play is Geo. M. Cohen's "Sev-
en- Keys to Baldpate", said to be his
most successful comedy and mystery
play as well. 1t is to be played by
Percival Vivian and his company of
twelve Broadway players, Mr.. Vivian
himself appearing in the leading role.
Mr.. Vivian Will be remembered for
his long association with Ben Greet in
Shakespearean productions and 1t was
his company that gave the delightful
production of 1.-THE Comedy of Errors"
at Chautauqua last summer
OF late Mr.. Vivian has been stage
manager of the Morosco Theater, New
York City, and during the past winter
the creator of one of the three leading
roles in Capt. Bairnsfather's delightful
play, "The Better OLE, in support of
Macklyn Arbuckle and DeWolf Hop
per. Mr.. Vivian has secured the
original New York stage setting of
Seven Keys to Baldpate", cut down
and modelled to fit the Chautauqua
platforms. The members of the cast
have been carefully chosen from
among artists direct from Broadway
successes Of last winter.
The story Of the play runs some
thing like this: William Hal
lowell Magee, writer of popular nov
els, has made bet with the owner of
Baldpate Inn, summer hotel on a
lonely mountain top, that he can write
best-seller in twenty-four hours
Magee goes to Baldpate Inn to write
his story, and receives from the care
taker the key to the Inn-"The only
key in existence" he is told. But no
sooner has he started to work than a
multiplicity of keys begin to unlock the
door and he finds himself the hero of
stirring adventure with grating po-
liticians, murderers, hermit ghost,
charming aventuress, and still
more charming $50 Magee thinks
young woman newspaper reporter
Finally the owner of the Inn appears
and says that it has all been a joke to
prevent the writing Of the novel. And
just when you have decided that you
have finally solved the many myster-
les that are presented, you find that
you are all wrong and the real solu-
ton is given by the last few words in
the eDilogue just as the curtain falls.
The play is guaranteed to make you
laugh three hundred times and to mys-
tify you until the very finish.

REPUBLICAN SENA-
TORSD0 NOT WELCOME
PITTMAN'S MOVE
Republicans Are Insisting That
League Draft Should Be Changed
Instead For Just An
Understanding.


Washington, August 20-The first
open move for compromise in the
League of Nations fight came from ad.
ministration quarters today, embraced
in proposal reservations but that
they be kept apart from the actual
ratification of the treaty.
The overture met with no immediate
success on the Republican side of the
chamber, Senators of the Republican
reservation group declaring they could
not recede from their position that to
be effective the reservations must &c
into the ratification ITSELF
Senator Pittman, of Nevada, DEM
ocratic member of the Foreign Rela-
tions Committee, presented the COM
promise proposed in the form of a
resolution embodying, IN effect the
four reservations agreed on by, seven
Republican Senators and declaring
them to constitute the Senate's under
standing of disputed points in the
covenant.
In the Republican draft, however, 1t
is expressly provided that the reser-
vations 'be made a part of the treaty
by the instrument ratification" pro-
viso which Senator McNary, of Oregon,
and others of the group of seven Re-
publicans said they considered abso-
lutely necessary If enough Republican
votes are to be gained to secure rati-
fication of the treaty.
To overcome this objection, Senator
Pittman proposed in a speech In the
Senate that the resolution be adopted
at once and submitted to other pow
ers who will be represented on the
league council. A general debate de-
veloped during which Senator Borah,
Republican, Idaho, and others took
exception with President Wilson's dis
tinction between moral and legal OBJ
legations under the covenant as eX-
pressed in yesterdays White House
COHleleuCe uetWeeu Tie IIeSlueul anu
the Foreign Relations Committee.
Although Senator Pittman said he
had not submitted his resolution for
the Presidents approval, he asserted
that 1t carried into effect Mr.. Wilson's
views on the subject of reservations
as expressed to the committee yester-
day. He indicated his firm belief that
the administration would go no fur
Their toward a compromise because It
feared that inclusion Of the reserva-
tons in the ratification would reopen
the negotiations with Germany.
Leaders of the McNary group, never
theless, insisted they had information
that in the end their plan would have
democratic support.
An attack on the Shantung provision
of the treaty was made in the Senate
by Senator Mccormick, Republican,
Illinois, who asserted that by accept
ing the provision tNe United States
would become a party to one of the
most outrages exhibitions of "hypo-
cracy and violence in the worlds his
