l have just left one of the curb
markets where little group of New
York delegates and a member of the
Wilson cabinet were discussing a corr
ner i'll votes that they want to smash.
1t all has to do with the so-called
unit rule, which in this instance is
the device whereby Boss Murphy can
vote the New York delegation in Il
solid block of 80. That is what You
may accurately call purchasing pow
CT, developed to the highest extent.
The power of the WilsonBurleson-
McAdoo machine to dictate the nomi-
nation is modified only by the price
they must pay to the patrons Of such
delegations as that headed by Muir
ply. There are twenty or thirty men
in the New York delegation who
would vote for McAdoo on the first
ballot and every other ballot if they
were not tied by the unit rule.
George r. Lunn, former Socialist,
is leading fight on the unit rule.
and if he can help break it, he will
reduce Murphy's purchasing power
by every vote he tears loose, and in
that way make Murphy sell out to
the Burleson- -McAdoo syndicate for
so or 60 cents on the dollar.
The thing to remember is that
Murphy means to sell anyway, but
80 votes will buy more pledges than
60 will. OF course, he must not wait
too long, for the Burleson-M McAdoo
machine will win without New York,
if it is obliged to. 1t has all the four
year political bonds to distribute,
and all the smaller state delegations
will jump to the Burleson- M McAdoo
band wagon as soon as they are Of
fered their price in patronage.
They will jump without waiting
for their price if they suspect the
machine is about to win without theil
help. That is why New York votes
common and preferred, were so ac,
tive last evening on the political ex'
change. Chairman Robinson may
bust Murphy's unit by decision from
the chair, and if he does, there will
be a New York fire sale.
This dickering for price and place
in the stampede shows how power
fully entrenched any set of politicians
become after four years control o1
the United States government. The
state delegations first learn how
powerless they are before the fedora

"Mr. Mudros defense that the
aged woman inmate of the county
poor farm was incarcerated i'll
barred cell for a week at that IN
stitution because she was in the
habit of becoming intoxicated, IS,
to say the least, a rather serious
indictment of the county officials
who are charged with enforcing the
prohibition law" declared County
Auditor Nellie Sullivan today in
commenting on the TRADE directed
against her by Felix Mudro, super
intendent of the county poor farm,
in the morning organs of the cor
rupt political interests.
His statement that the aged
woman was in the habit OF becom-
ing drunk sounds ridiculous in these
days of supposed prohibition and
the high cost of whisEey.'
The county auditor also pointed
out that Mr.. Mudro had failed to
deny that while his salary as super
intendent of the poor farm Is. lou
per month, the commissioners last
month allowed him $1OO additional
for alleged services as cook al

Mrs. Sullivan declared that hel

The following communication,
presumably written by an inmate OF
the poor farm and addressed to Po-
lice Judge Grimes and forwarded
by him to the county auditor, was
made public by Mrs. Sullivan:
'In one case before you on June
80, the testimony of the county
auditor was just and right. How

farm be in the habit of going up

TAFT TO REPRESENT GRAND
 TRUNK RAILWAY SYSTEM

Montreal, June 12.-Former President William H. Taft of the United States has been appointed to represent the Grand Trunk Railroad, system on the board of arbitration that is to determine the amount to be paid by the Dominion gov ernment for the stock of the corpora tion.
 tonight by Howard Kelley, president of the Grand Trunk, acting on behalf of the boardof directors of the system
 The Grand Trunk Railway of Cana da is being taken over by the Canadian government and will be made a part of the Canadian national system, which all ready includes the Intercolonial Rail- way. the National Trans-continental and the Canadian Northern system.
 Under legislation pqassed last year at Ottawa, the government agreed to as- sume the bonded indebtedness of the Grand Trunk system and it's outstanding debenture stock. and to pay the share holders, most of whom reside in Great Britain, an arbitrated price for their common and preferred stock
 Recently the British shareholders as- sented to the plan. and the board of ar bitration is now being named. It is to consist of three members, one represent ing the Canadian government, one the
 
 by thesetwo. Mir. Taft is the railways nominee.
 The deal involves the entire Grand Trunk system. including lines in the United States as we'll as those in Can ada.
 The taking over of the railway was made necessary, according to the govern ment, through the failure of the Grano Trunk company to carry out it's obliga- tions with regard to the bonds of the Grand Trunk Pacific, line constructed from Winnipeg west to the Pacific under an agreement with the government. The Grand Trunk has defaulted on the in terest of Grand Trunk Pacific bonds which it had guaranteed. and the gov ernment was compelled to come to the rescue.
 The consolidation of the railway with the present national system will give the latter a network of branches in east ern Canada. lack of which hampered it greatly in the past. as we'll as access to the ports of Montreal and Portland, Me.
 The sittings of the board of arbitra- tion will be held here beginning in Sep tember next.

Spa, Belgium. July 12-CBy The A. P.) The allies served an uitimatum upon the German delegation to the conference here late this afternoon that the Germans must agree hy three o'clock tomorrow afternoon to deliver to the allies 2,oo0,- 900 tons of coal monthly. Otherwise, the Germans were informed the allies will take measures to enforce the terms of the Versailles treaty.
 Thls. the negotiations with the Ger mans have reached another tense point The spirit of conciliation adopted by both sides has prevented break thus far but the allies found itwas necessary to issue this ultimstum for carving out the treaty whicS would entitle them to a greater amount of coal than now is demanded
 The question of coal was the subject Of controversy during the three hour ses- sion of Premier Millerand, Premier Lloyd George. Count Sforza. the Italian foreign minister. Viscount Childa, Jap l1ese ambassador to Great Britain Premier Delacroix of Belgium. kon- s,zntin Fehrenbach. the German chan -eilo-. and Dr. Walter Simons. the Ger man foreign minister, who had with them only enc secretary each.
 The allies began by insisting upon a monthly delivery of 2.2o0, 0oo tons The Germans offered 100000 tons and the allies reduced their demand to 2'eoo'- poo.

OF PROPOSALS
 TO RUSSIAN SOVIET GOVT

London, July 12.-Further official con- frmation was given today that the allies had made proposals to the Russian soviee government for an immediate armistice on equitable terms between Poland and Russia. This confirmation was given in the house of commons by Andrew Bonar Law. the government spokesman.
 eMr. Bonar Law also declared the soviet government had accepter Great Britain's terms for resumption of trade between Great Britain and Russia
 When asked to state the terms of the trade agreement, Mir. Bonar Law declined to say more than that the message to Moscow dealing with the Polish arniistice dealt also with the question of trade nee gotiations.
 The question was raised whether the allies h1d threatened if the soviet govern ment declined an armistice that the allies would defend Poland. MT Bonar Law would not give the details regarding this contingency but he did say that the Brit lsh negotiations did not involve recopni- ton of the soviet government.
