detained here with his own affairs of
the Democratic touring campaign and
he also desired Mr.. Roosevelt to have

day.
Over Sunday mails and the tele-
graph continued their message of con-
graduation to Governor Cox, praising
his declaration Of policies in his ac-
ceptance address Of Saturday and en-
rolling under the Cox Roosevelt stand
ad. Most Of his mail was not being
handled by the Governor personally.

worked to clean UP unfinished affairs
before leaving here next Wednesday
on travels expected to continue until
November. .

next Thursday at Camp Perry, Ohio,
IN presenting the Governors cup

ticular interest to his audiences, like
publicity and campaign contributions
to the Indiana Editors at South Bend,
Ind, affairs of interest to miners in
his Pittsburg speech and agricultural
matters to the farm organizations at
Columbus, Ohio, September2.

Harding, his Republican opponent,
soon will be in the thick Of exchanges
from their respective forums also is
expected by the Democratic candi-
dates managers. It was reported that
few days in August were held open
for future bookings for addresses by
the Governor to give rebuttal to COM
ment from Senator Harding and the
Republican camp on the Governors
declarations in his acceptance speech
and future addresses.

PREMIERS MEET
IN CONFERENCE

Hythe, Eng, August 9.-When Pre-
miers Millerand, of France and
Lloyd George, of England met again
this morning in continuation of their
conference here over the Russo-Pol-
ish situatio they had before them the
detailed report of Marshal Foch and
Field Marshal Wilson dealing with the
extent Of military, naval and econ
omic assistance which France and
England can give Immediately to Po-
land. sjlz'
Having decided that actual war shall
not be waged on Russia, the Premiers
were confronted with a most difficult
problem. 1t is known they are in
clined to give Poland every aid within
the limit of this decision. In both
French and British circles here, how
ever, the word defensive" is empha-
sized in connection with all proposed
plans. and it is pointed out that France
and Great Britain wish it distinctly
understood that they are not contem-
plating offensive measures against
Russia.
Marshal Foch and Field Marshal
Wilson, with their experts, worked
until late hour last night framing
thei report. The conference ~consid-
ering their report today was expected
to last until early afternoon. Premier
Millerand planned to return to Paris
at 2:30 p. M, while Premier Lloyd
George expected to be in London later
in the day.
The optimism Of the British, which
was manifested before the conference
began yesterday, had given away to a
feeling Of extreme uneasiness, and the
it was rported that the British Pre-
mier himself was greatly disturbed
over the new developments in the
Russo Polish situation.
