ing, in answer to question, that there
is no Irish question"
Many of his friends believed that such
a remark if given thoughtful considera-
ton would be a deathblow.
But this is not taken seriously by GER
tain friends. who feel confident he stands
as good a chance as any of those now in
the field to pull down the big prize.
Mr.. Marshall will be in San Francisco
tomorrow.
He will be a guest at the st. Francis
hotel with a>party Of friends.
The Marshall adherents are awaiting
his arrival with keen interes:.
Thus far there has been no open work
in his behalf. but bis friends believe when
the vice president is seen on the grounds
in person, a life sized boom will be
started.
1t is pointed out that the great ma
jority of delegates to this convention are
uninstrueted and will come to San Fran
cisco ready to flock TO the standard Of
the man who can win for the democratic
party.
Marshall boomers feel that william G.
McAdoo has talked himself out of the
nomination and that this leaves Mr.. Mar

On the other hand, there are plenty
OF practical democratic politicians who
view the McAdoo incident far from be-

His closest friends declare that Mr..
McAdoo. although he refuses to permit
his name to go before the convention,
can not refuse the nomination IL the

CLAIM FREIGHT
RATES UNJUST
Indiana Men Present Protest
in Hearing.

That Indiana manufacturers shipping
to Minneapolis and ST. Paul and other
POINTS in Minnesota are the butt of al
unjust discrimination OF freight rates
to those points as compared to the rates
OF manufacturers of Illinois and Mis-
souri,. is the charge presented before w.
B. Psttison, special examiner Of the in
terstate commerce commission, by the
Indiana State Chamber Of Commerce and
the Indiana public service commission,
in a hearing in progress today at the
federal building.
The hearing was started yesterday and
many Indianapolis and Indiana business
men and manufacturers were present to
testify that there was a discriminatory
rate Of 80 per cent in many cases be
tween shipments from Indiana and I'LL
nOis and Missouri manufacturers.
The principal witness ia the hearing
yesterday was X. B. Coapstick. traffic
manager of the Indiana State Chamber
Of Commerce, who confirmed the testi-
mony of the 50 per cent discriminatory
rate in some cases.
NO REASON SEEN
FOR DIFFERENCES.
Indiana manufacturers say that Min
neapolis and ST. Paul are the natural
markets of many Of the manufactured
products, and that they see no reason
why the Illinois manufacturer should
have any discrimination In rates,
They co1tended thabthe rates from the
three states of points Of equal dis
lance or comparatively so should be
equalized, which would either lower the
rates Of Indiana shippers or raise those
given the Illinois and Missouri manufsc-
turers.
Contestants Of the complaint were here
in person representing manufacturing in
terests from Illinois manufacturing cen
ters, including quincy, Peoria and Eas;
St Louis, and from St Louis, No.
They are against the raising OF the
Illinois rates in order to equalize the
rates of the two states.
Combination class rates are PRINCIPALLY
involved and the rates Of the trunk lines
running to Minneapolis and st. Pau'
from Chicago would probably not be af-
fected should any rate change be made
If any changes in the rates are affected
II will probably hit the railroads run
ming from Indiana, Missouri and IL
linois cities into Chicago.
GIVE EXAMPLE
OF RATE DIFFERENCE.
In one instance It was shown that
first-class rates from indianapolis to
Minneapolis are Sf.22, as compared to a
first-class rate Of 10 cents from st.
Louis to Minneapolis the two cities
being practically Of equal distance from
Minneapolis.
Among the prominent Indiana men who
attended the meeting yesterday as wit
nesses were Frank Fairweather of the
TT Wayne Chamber Of Commerce; L. A.
Clark, representing the Ball Bros glass
works of Muncie, Ind, and Frank Basin
of Vincennes, Ind, a manufacturer OF
window glass.

or. sometimes, that it was impracticable
to make connections.
He said two physicians and a dentist
had complained they could not get tele-
phones Previous testimony introduced
before the commission by the telephone
company was, in effect, that preference
had been given physicians and others
TO whom telephones were essential, be-
cause of the great number of unified
orders for telephones on the books.
Difficulty IN obtaining material waL
one OF the reasons assigned for this Hist
Of untitled orders.
Mr. Atwater said he had found few
cases ia the state where independent tel
ephone companies are experiencing DIFF
hculty in getting material to keep up in
stallation.
He said he did not believe lack Of ca
bic or plant capacity WAS any reason
for refusing new installations OF tele-
phones, with possibly a few exceptions
TO cables
When asked IL he knew Of any reason
why they should be refused he said the
obvious deduction was that tine company
did not wish these new patrons. and fur
Their suggested that the cut-over that Is
to be made might be some reason. but
hardly seemed worth considering.
In response to a question, be said the
company seemed to have plenty OF tele-
phone instruments.
He said there seemed to be a sort
Of vagueness on the part OF employees Of
the company as TO reasons advanced as
to why they would not put In instru-
ments. in cases referred TO. and that Il
was his opinion they disliked 20 turn
down new business. but were restrained.
In response TO a question as TO his
knowledge Of the attitude OF represen-
tatives OF the Indiana Bell towards the
public he said the telephone men are
loyal and are doing their best TO plea Sc
the public and be courteous.
Other witnesses during the night SEES
sion were 7. II. Breeze. general com
mercial superintendent Of the Indiana
Bell Telephone Company. and - c. l.
Woods. general superintendent OF traffic
for the company.
Is. s. Wilson. New York, vice presi-
dent Of the A. T. & r, spoke briefly
Of the relationship between the A. T. &

brought into the state for medical or
beverage. purposes.
WHAT EACH
INSISTED.
Attorney Michael Ryan for the de
tense insisted the evidence showed the
liquor was brought into the state for
medical purposes, while the government
declared the evidence showed the so
called prescriptions were frauds and
only pFetenses on which to sell liquor OF
any amount.
IN his argument Attorney Ryan con
tended that If the jury believed the de-
PENDANT Haags that they brought the
whisky into the state for medical pur-
poses. then the case was ended.
The jury by its sweeping verdict in
dicated that 1t answered Mr.. Ryan's
question in the negative.
II required more than three hours for
the jury to arrive at a verdict OF guilty
against the two Haags and it is under
stood four ballots were taken.
The first ballot was nine for convic-
ton and three for acquittal; the second
eight to four and the third ten to two
and the fourth a verdict of guilty, it is
understood.
DIDN'T DENY
BRINGING IN LIQUOR.
The two defendants admitted 3I Inc
beginning Of the trial that they caused
the large amounts Of whisky to be
brought into the state, but claimed that
the only purpose for which the whisky
was to be used was for medical pur-
poses.
The Haag case is regarded as one of
the shortest conspiracy cases ever tried
in the federaI>e
The case hogan at 10 O'Clock Monday
morning and the jury was selected and
opening statements made by both sides in
an hours time.
When the verdict was returned yester-
day afternoon the Haags exhibited no
emotion and Immediately held a confer
euce with their attorneys.
Herbert Haag. against whom the gov
eminent dismissed It's charges. walked TO
the table OF the government counsel and
shook hands with District Attorney Fred

voice to my views and everywhere, after
the first shock, l have found the reat-
ton to be favorable.
There are two reasons why l desire
a third term for the president" con-
tinued Miss Toy.
First. I believe the president should
be vindicated by the people and in the
second place, l believe the president is
entitled to finish the war work which
he began-I believe he should carry
through legislation for reconstruction,
which has been blocked by the repub
lican congress.
Il don't believe the people meant to
tie the hands of the president in the 1918
election when they elected republican
congress, but that is what they did and
they realize il now, and I believe they are
ready to give the president an opportu-
nifty to complete his work.

FOR VICE PRESIDENT.

dent a man such as Homer Cummings.
with such a man as vice president,
why couldn't the president turn over
many of his duties to the vice president?
"Of course, it has never been done, but
let us smash a few presidents.
IF the president wanted to retire after
his work of reconstruction was complete
I don't see any reason why he should
not be able to do so and turn the office
over TO the vice president.
'T am not going to say that l am the
leader Of movement for a third term

presumptuous, but you can count on my

SAN FRANCISCO, June 23.-This is an
administration convention--so far.
Not only have most of the early ar
rivals been ardent administration sup
porters-but all the pre-convention ma
chinery and the greater part of the pre-
convention activities have been directed
by them.
Such INSTRUMENTATION rumblings as
have served to disturb the serenity OF
the Wilsonian camp at the Palace hotel
have come from outside.
And they have had little more effect
than yesterdays earthquake at Los An

entirely with Homer Cummings charac-

that It is a negligible factor.
Why Bryan has delayed his appear
ance here is the subject Of much specu-
lstion.
Granted he is to play the part OF the
chief Of the anti administration forces. he
is bound to find pro administration sen
