Misunderstanding
WORK ON CABINET
After Weeks of Consideration
President elect is Nearing De-
cjsion on Appointments.
MIND FAIRLY MADE UP
,chas. e. Hughes Regarded a Favorite
for Secretary of State; Hoover
Will Probably be Named Sec.
rotary Of Labor.

Marion, Ohio-After weeks of con.
sideration and consultation, President
elect Harding is nearing a decision on
several of his most important cabinet
appointments.
It may be said authoritatively that
so far no such decision has been made
and that any suggestions he may have
dropped on the subject have been of
a tentative and indefinite nature It
is equally certain, however, that in his
talks here with leaders in many walks
Of life he has indicated clearly what
men are uppermost in his mind as he
asks for advice on the makeup of his
official family.
Cabinet Probabilities.
Those who have discussed the ques-
ton with him intimately believe that
appointments under serious consider.
alton include the following:
Charles e. Hughes Of New York, sec.
rotary of state.
Charles G. Dawes OF Illinois, secre.
tary of the treasury.
John W. Weeks of Massachusetts,
secretary of the navy.
viii H. Hays of Indiana. postmas.
ter general or secretary OF the in
terror.
Henry Wallace of Iowa, secretary oil
agriculture. ;"
Herbert Hoover of California, secre
tary of labor. 1857.
Harry NJ. .Daugherty, attorney gen
eral.
Slate Is Not Definite.
How many of these actually will BIZ
given the places for which they now
are most prominently mentioned is y
question that even Mr.. Harding him
self is not prepared to answer. Al
ready several shifts have been made
in his tentative appointment slate al
he has worked HIS way toward .
balanced and harmonious cabinet ant
other changes are expected before tht
last decision is made.
Mr.. Harding's selections for Sec
rotary Of State and Secretary Of thu
Treasury, however, are expected to bt
known definitely within q few days
At the same time he may make pub
lie the name Of one or two others OF
whom he has definitely decided fol
membership IN the cabinet! .s-t

AUTO YEGGS LOOT WALl|NGFORD SHOP OF

Wallfngford, July 9-A wild west burglary was committed about 2 o'clock yesterday morning at the fac tory of the Watrus Manufacturing Go. Factory "P" of the International Sil- yer company, situated near Commun- tty lake and about a mile from the center of this borough, loot to the va1uo of $1O,OOO being secured and the burglars getting three hours start of their pursuers.
 The night watchman of the plant, Charles Olschelfski, sent in a call to the police at about o'clock in the morning and when they arrived relat- ed how he had been bound and gag ged by a gang of men, estimated at eight. While one of them mounted guard, the others, he said, after se- curing keys, went through the factory and secured the booty.
 The watchman stated that he was making his rounds as usual and had just punched the time cock as GUS tomary when he suddenly found hiself surrounded by the men who, after binding him securely, and fore ing a cloth into his outh, tied him to a chair and proceeded with their work, after they had dragged him to an alleyway in the factory building.

CHINESE LABOR
 UNIONS BATTLE
 FOR EXISTENCE

Shanghai, July 9-China's embryo labor unions are seeking an alliance with the National student body.
 These labor unions are still in a nebulous state. The first of them came into being in Shanghai a few months ago in a loosely welded or ganization of cooIies back from war work in France. Then were formed the Wharf Coo1ies' Association, the Electricians union, the China Labor Union, the China Industrial Workers Union, the National Union of Labor CTS and several others.
 Organizers of these unions attempt ed to hold the first Labor Day cele- bration in China on May 1, but when they undertook to parade in the na- tive quarter they encountered two companies of Chinese troops and a machine gun detachment, ordered out by General Ho Fungting, acting defense commissioner, who forba de any form of demonstration.

PLYMOUTH" ROCK FOR SALVATION
 ARMY BUILDING

Boston, July 9.-Four huge 4o0- pound blocks of granite hewn from the ''stern and rockbound coast" of Massachusetts and as near to the ac- tua1 landing place of the Pilgrims as could be obtained, rormed part or the cargo of the Cunard liner 3Tn- kula'' sailing today for Europe.
 The stones will serve as the cor ner markers for the new Salvation Army citadel in Plymouth. England, the port from which the "Mayflower" sailed 800 years ago, and are the gift of the New England forces of the Salvation Army, commanded by Col. Adam Clifford, this city. Deacon Brothers, a firm of Plymouth, Mass. monument contractors, donated the stones.
 The same sentiment which prompt ed the selection of most of the foun- dation stones from as near as pos sib1e to the Purftans point of em- barkation, actuated the endeavor by Army officials to secure the corner stones from the landing place of the gallant little vessel whose voyage has inspired a nation through the cen- turies.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1920-07-09

He described his assailants as being mostly young men.
 The booty consisted of a quantity of sterling silver ingots and some partly finished goods and the weight of the goods stolen would indicate that the getaway was made in an au- tomobile.
 O1schelfski, who was not seriously injured, received nevertheless a few painful cuts and abrasions as well as bruises about the head and body, but after he had succeeded in freeing himself from his bonds, was able to give a fair description of his assail- ants to the police upon their arrival in reponse to his call
 The. job" which was clever1y timed and carried out, is supposed to be the work of professionals, assisted prob ably by one of two men either now or formerly in the employ of the factory, as the watchman's usual movements seem to have been well known to the men, who also apparently had a thor ough knowledge of the location of the valuable stock, and lost no time in making their way through the fac tory, and choosing a spot for the dis posa1 of their victim where he would be least likely to be discovered until the factory employees reported for work in the morning.

MEXICANS FIND
 SEVERAL FRAUDS
 IN GOVERNMENT

Cexico City. July 9-At intervals since the taking over of the govern ment by the de facto administration, the newspapers of the capital have published reports of "Panamas'' dis covered in the federal departments. Panama" is the charitable journal ist term for defalcaticn. Few of these "Panamas' attributed to Car ranza officials run under seven fig ures.
 Funds from the national railways are declared to have been used for propaganda, in support of the candi- dacy of Ygnacio Bonillas for the presidency. None of the papers, however. has mentioned who might have profited from the proceeds of the alleged frauds in retiring and burning Appreciated paper currency. The latest Panama" reported to have been discovered in the treasury department, is estimated to involve from 6,000,00o pesos. up, and to have resulted from an issue of revenue stamps in 1915.
