proposed last fall is still in the en-
bryonic stage, awaiting the result
of negotiations with Keeler Bros,
Denver bond buyers, concerning a
contract for sale of the proposed
bonds or for the legal work in con-
nection herewith. The Denver
firm furnished an outline of the
procedure, but the chairman Of the
board desires a modification of the
contract, and to that end letters
have been written by the village
clerk and village attorney, to which
no replies have been received.
A. w. O'Connell, solicitor for
Keeler Bros, who made the initial
proposition to the board which led
up TO the contract, during the
absence of the chairman and the
attorney, had since promised the
clerk by phone that he would meet
with the board cat the next meet
ing" and 60 over the matter in
controversy; but, altho about two
months have elapsed, he has not
put in an appearance, nor written
in explanation of his delay. This

company, demanding an immediate
reply.

During the two hours the presi-

questions with amazing frankness.
Once he had sudden attack of
illness and was forced to cease
speaking for several moments. This
attack, which alarmed the guests,
came when the provisional presi-

against Carranza and had said or

New York, June 20.-The ability
of the Cincinnati Nationals and the
Cleveland Americans to maintain
a winning pace against the eastern
teams in the present inter-sectional
series has enabled them to retain
the leadership of their leagues.
Each disposed of its chief eastern
rival, the Brooklyn Nationals and the
New York Americans, respectively,
last week. Each interfered with
the schedule of both league lead
ers.
The Prooklyn National pitchers
have been unable to check the wes-
tern visitors, losing series to Gin

started In the west, met with a sur
prising interruption in Philadel-
phia, where the Quakers won three
out of four.
Both Chicago and Pittsburgh
have recovered from their losing
slumps.
New York appears to be headed
for last place, as the Giants pitch
ers are not meeting with much sue
cess while Philadelphia now has a
fair combination of effective bat
terry and steady pitching.
In the American league, 'Cleve-
Ian dwas out-slugged and defeated
today by Boston. New York broke

Washington, June 20,-In antic-
ipation of coming busy week of
conferences, Senator Harding, re-
publican presidential nomnee, to-
day received no callers but spent
the day resting. He did take ad-
vantage of the lull to go over some
personal mail and later in the day
went motoring, accompanied by
Mrs. Harding and several personal
friends.
Tomorrow Senator Harding will
meet Chairman Win H. Hays and
members of the subcommittee of
the republican national committee
to fix a date for his official notifi-
cation and to discuss other features
of his campaign.
1t is expected that committee
will be. named tomorrow to work
out plans for the notification cere-
lmony.
I Another important matter likely
to be determined tomorrow, it was
said tonight. would be the appoint
ment of an executive committee
consisting of members of the re-
publican national committee. to
take active charge of the cam
paign. No indication so far has
been given of the personnel of this
committee.
Owing to the important part the
women are to have in this years
campaign, the senator's friends
said tonight it was certain some Of
the members would be women. In
order that the committee may be
mobile present plans call for a
committee not to exceed fifteen
members.
1T became known tonight that
Harry NJ. Daugherty of Columbus,
o., Senator Harding's campaign
manager prior to the Chicago con-
vention, will relinquish his duties
as soon as the executive commit
tee takes charge, but will continue
to be a close personal adviser to
the Ohio senator during the cam
paign. Mr.. Daugherty is not a
member of the national commit
tee. When he took charge of the
primary campaign. it was said he
expressed the desire that If Sena-
tor Harding were nominated he
would not be burdened with carry
ing on the national campaign.
Announcement was made to-
night that the conference between
Senator Harding and former SEN
ator Albert ]. Beveridge of Indiana
would be next Tuesday, while that
with Col Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.,
would be either on the same or the
following day.
While no announcement has
been made as to what person will
be seen, the senator hopes to con-
fer this week with representatives
OF business, organized labor, trans
rortation and industrial enterprises
before he gets down to the actual
writing of his acceptance speech.
