CHICAGO, July 13.-After two
days of pickering and negotiating
between the minor political parties

here shortly before noon for the
birth of a united third party, prob
ably tonight.
A Joint convention, embracing the
Committee Of Forty-eight the Amer
ican Labor party, the Single lax
party, and representatives OF the
Nom Partisan League and smaller
organizations probably will be held
tonight, at which candidates for
President and Vice President will be
nominated and a platform adopted.
MUST DECIDE ON NAME.
The agreement to meet in joint
convention was made with the name
OF the new party and the platform
still in doubt. These will be settled
later
The instrument through which the
amalgamation was effected was found
after a morning Of dissension during
which it appeared several times that
the coalition was doomed to failure.
The Labor party, at its convention
In Carmen's Hall, finally forced the
issue and voted to go ahead and NOM
mate a candidate for President at $50
o'clock tonight regardless OF every
thing.
Then at the Horrison Hotel. where
the convention of the Forty-eighters
was in progress, H. F. Wilkie, OF
Maryland, as chairman OF commit
tee on political procedure. brought in
a report. stating: THE Labor Party
Of the United States and the Commit
tee of Forty-eight shall unite in q
new political party"

unanimously adopted and a commit

Justice Bailey of the District su-

TO PRESIDENT
Text of Reply, Now in Hands of
Chief Executive, Not
Made Public.
DEFENDS EAGLE HUT ACTION
Believe Wilson Will Stand by
Commission Until Supreme
Court Rules.

District Commissioner Brownlow
late yesterday afternoon placed be-
fore President Wilson a reply, to ths
charges made against him by the
rent commissioners who had de-
clared in effect that he had taken
the IawhN ms own hande when ne
implied that he held the Ball act
unconstitutional.
While Mr.. Brownlow refused to dis
close the text Of his statement this
morning, it is understood that be
makes a sweeping denial Of the rent
commissioners declaration.
CONFERRED WITH TUMULTY.
With the exclusive publication yes
terday by The Times of the Rent
Commissioners charges, which are in
the hands of the President, Mr..
Brownlow lost no time in going to
the White House and comforting with
Secretary Tumulty. Following this
conference the District Commissioner
returned to his office and later trans
mitted a statement Of his position to
the President.
II drafted a reply to the charges Of
the Rent Commission yesterday morn
ing" said Commissioner Brownlow
this morning. "In the afternoon I
sent it to the White House. cannot
give out my reply. 1t is now in the
hands of the President, and 1 have
nothing to say at this time"
DEFENDS EAGLE HUT ACT.
1t is understood that Mr.. BrownIow
vigorously defends his position in the
controversy over Eagle Hut, at Ninth
street and Pennsylvania avenue
northwest, in his communication to
President Wilson.
When the case was aired before the
Rent Commission, Mr.. Brownlow took
the stand that the Eagle Hut had
been erected as q war emergency
with agreement that it be razed when
such an emergency had ended. He
declared that it never had been sane
toned as a branch city postoffice, and
that since the hut was constructed
on a Government reservation in the
District the District COMMISSIONS
had jurisdiction over such property.
President Wilson now has before
him both sides of the controversy
which he has been asked to referee
because Of the clashing of two Gov
ernment departments.
THINK HUT WILL STAND.
1t was generally interpreted this
morning that by going to the White
House. and thereby following the
suit of the rent commissioners, Mr..
Brownlow is backing down on his
previous position in which he de-
clared that the Hut would be razed
August 1 in spite OF contrary de-
cision of the rent commission which
had ruled that the City Postmaster
could continue the branch postoffioe
in the building.
There is every indication now that
Eagle Hut will not be torn down on
the above date, as Mr.. Brownlow
had threatened 1t would be. 1t is
believed that the President will rule
that the authority OF the rent com
mission, created under act OF Con-
gress, is not void because the Ball
act has been held unconstitutional by
the Court OF Appeals of the Dis
trict.
There Is a prevailing opinion that
the President cannot do otherwise
than hold the rent commissions de-
cisions binding until the constitution
ality OF that body has finally been
passed upon by the Supreme Court
OF the United States.

involved.

head of the German delegation. gave
formal protest to the Belgian gov

promised that an investigation would
be made.
