The contractors for the new bridge
started work today to put up foot
bridge for the use of pedestrians
pending the completion Of the new
bridge. 1t will be placed on the abut-
ments of the old Main street bridge
and the plans are to have it ready for
opening just about the time the bridge
starts on its journey to the new Ioca-
ton at Middle street.
Fourth of Julytis not to be consid-
cred in the work of moving the bridge
as the contractor declared today that
he was anxious to get the old bridge
out of the way and get ready for the
new work. Team traffic over the
bridge was eliminated long time ago.
Materials for the work in connec-
ton with the bridge is coming in very
rapidly, so rapidly in fact that it is
becoming something of problem as
to where all of it is to be stored.
There will be no order to stop ship
nents. however, as the contractors
want to get everything on the grounds
SO that they will have no cause for
delays later on.

opening of the session. A Cox band,

were on hand and enlivened the SEES

McAdoo Out of the Race.
Definite and final instructions came
from the east this morning that the
name of William G. McAdoo was not
to be formally presented to the con
vention as a candidate for the nom
ination for president. The Rev. Mr..
Jenkins of Kansas City who was to
have nominated McAdoo announced
that he would bow to the order. A
message from New York said that Mr..
McAdoo when seen had said, "The ac-

May Get Slightly Moist Plank"
Although the administration chiefs
said that the committee of nine in
charge of drafting the platform had
reached decision on most of the i'm
portant planks, the committee gave out
a formal report after short session
this morning. "We are not ready to
report and will work in secret until
1880 o'clock this evening when anoth-
er report will be made" the report
read.
Administration chiefs declared that
the committee had agreed upon a
Slightly moist" prohibition plank,
which would preclude the adoption of
the "Bryan Bone Dry" plank. It was
said that the plank might bring an
endorsement of the action Of Presi-
dent Wilson in vetoing the Volstead
act and that this endorsement would
be counted on to carry the plank
through the convention.
1t was said that the treaty plank"
proposed by Woodrow Wilson would
be reported without the changing of
the dotting Of an or the crossing of
a T.
William Jennings Bryan early this
afternoon let it be understood that he
would not stand for Slightly moist
dry" plank and that he would carry
his plank for prohibition endorsement
to the floor of the convention.
Leaders declared that on straight
wet and dry test the convention would
undoubtedly vote wet, but that with
an endorsement of the president cou-
pied to the Slightly moist" plank
there might be = chance Of its adop-
ton.

RED CROSS IN RUSSIA.

II N Soviet Russia there hunger and cold and dis
i ease. The Red Cross is not in Soviet Russia
Some uniformed American radicals say 1t is the
American Stat: Department mol the Soviet, that is
responsible for the Red Cross moi being in Russia to-
day. They insist that the U. S. State Department
refused the Red Gross permission 10 work in Russia.
The ". S. State Department did not refuse the
American Red Gross permission TO go into Soviet Rus
STA.
The u. S. State Department told the Red Cross
that they were quite free to go into Russia; that the
State Department knew the Red Gross would take
every precauon to safeguard their supplies being used
either for military purposes by the Bohevs TO aid
them In keeping the morale Of the people.
I he State Department went on to say that while It
was entirely willing and fact glad to have Intelligent
humanitarian efforts made yet it could not hold out
any guarantee that it would be able TO protect either
the personnel who might go in to superntend the dis
tbu6on or protect and supplies against seizures
and con6scaion.
The American Red Gross was inclined to take the
rk but the whole matter put up TO the men IN the
heldland especially to Olds the European director
These men were unanimous In their judgment that
It would be unwise either 10 risk their people or their
supplies in Russia at this ime and that there was no
way in which the United States. through the State De
partment or otherwise, could protect them.
Thereupon, it was decided to withhold distribution
and the decision was wholly the decision OF the Ned
Cross European directors and agents, many of whom
had been in Soviet Russia, and who were intimately
acquainted with the methods of the Soviet government

PROBING A COAL EVIL.

n N investigation to determine whether there has
z been any discrimination in the distribution OF
coal cars has been ordered by the Interstate Commerce
commission, and if it pursued far enough it is going
to reveal some things about the transportation phase OF
the coal situation of the nation which the public little
suspects.
This inquiry ought to be especially searching on its
assigned car side. As emergency measure the as
signing of cars has value that ought to be carefully
preserved, but when this system becomes recognized
feature Of the distribution Of coal provides those who
can assign cars with an advantage other consum-
ems Of coal that they should not have and from time
to time it leads to abuses which tend to demoralze
the coal market.
The Interstate Commerce commission has shown
eommendable zeal in working out remedies for the fuel
problems of the country, and doubtless it can be de-
pended upon to carry this latest project through but
it will find in all probability. that in some particulars
is not going to have the cooperation Of the railroads.
for the railroads are the backbone Of the assigned car
system and in the past have managed to fool the com
mission completely regarding the merits and shortcom-
ines of il.

ELEVATOR REMEMBERS
 THE DAY AND ST|CKS;. PASSENGERS ESCAPE.

Still sticking in the shaft at inop- perfume and unexpected moments, like a potato that is too big to go down. the capitol elevator yesterday pulled a Friday the thirteenth stunt by going dead while midway between the first and second floors and while occupied by the operator and by Mrs. Alice Monette of the governors office.
 Fearful of what might happen next. after something had happened already, the operator concRsded to get his passenger out in a hurry. He man. aged to get himself out by climbing from his stool-top to the grating door and working the door open while in imminent danger of whatever the er- ratio old car would undertake next
 He squirmed out to safety on the sec ond floor and then hauled out Mrs. Monette, who had followed him to the top of the stool
 Although impeded by her skirts, the governors Fuache managed to es- cape with the able hauling of the ele Vator man while a crowd of capitol employees and visitors stood by to assist her as she was hauled up within reach. Less alarmed than any of the onlookers. Mrs. Monette continued game throughout the ordeal and nent collapse while her anxious friends rallied to congratulate her for the narrow escape.
 The elevator has never been the same since it's electrical wiring was transferred to niche in the new north wing, according to Custodian Alexander but he holds that it is perfectly safe, as it never has fallen yet He agrees that il sticks every once in a while, which he wishes it wouldn't, but that there really is nc occasion for alarm

AIDA" ENTRANCES
 B|G AUDIENCE AT ELKS
By orIey J. Hes


 The Italian Grand Opera company aroused enthusiasm last night by their excellent presentation of Verdis ro- mantle opera Aida" at the Elks theater before an audience which al- most filled the house to overflowing. The story of this opera presents ad- mirable and effective material for operatic treatment Love, joy, hatred, jealousy, despair and rage are all de- picted in musical expression. It offers fine variety of action and excellent opportunity for spectular display. The glitter and pony of the "Triumphal Procession" at the close of act makes a strong and impressive contrast with the subdued glory of the moonlight night on the banks of the Nile in the third act.
 Beatriz Pizzorni captured the affec- tions of the audience by her artistic work as Aida. Easy command of her high notes. flexibility of voice and an absence of effort are the admirable features of Miss Pizzorni's singing.
