to the league Of nations the American
industrial problem and other domestic
questions are to have prominent
place in the address of Governor Cox,

1t was said large portion of the

statement Of Senator Harding, his
Republican opponent, charging that
powerful international interest favor
ing the league Of nations were behind

mocrats would seek to minimize the
league issue. There was doubt
whether the Governor would reply be-
fore delivery Of his acceptance address
as he has said he then would answer
has stated also, that he would not en-
ter into a telegraphic debate with
Senator Harding.
Governor Cox, hopes to obtain con-
siderable rest and recreation next

DIAMOND KINGS DEATH
ENSHROUDED IN MYSTERY

Chicago, July 81. Miss r t''
Woods, pretty hotel cashier, who was
alone with Samuel T. A. Lofts, head
Of the Diamond Firm of Lofts Bro,
when he died suddenly in his luxurious
apartment last Friday night, today told
the police that Lofts crunpled to the
floor dead after they had engaged in
friendly struggle"
Although the police believe that the
Diamond Merchant died as a result
of concussion Of the brain, probably
caused by a fall, they expressed dis
satisfaction with conflicting stories
told by Miss Woods and Roy NJ.
Shayne, son of late millionaire mer-
chant, who also is being held pending
the inquest.
Miss Woods, who described Shayne
as her finance said she was called by
Lofts to his apartment at one o'clock
yesterday afternoon that they danced
and drank together and finally Lofts
attempted to attack her.
1--WE were having a playful strug-
gle" Miss Woods declared and my at
tention was momentarily distracted
from him. The next instant I was
startled by the sound of his body fall
ing to the floor. I was at loss to know
what to do and rushed to the telephone
to summon Mr.. Shayne.
According to the story Shayne told
the police, he reached the LOFTS
apartment about eight o'clock, that
Lofts opened the door to admit him
and suddenly crumpled to the floor.
AS soon as Shayne arrived, Miss
Woods fled from the apartment.
In the meantime Shayne called a
physician and when he arrived the
body Of Lofts was cold, indicating
that LOFTS had been dead for some
time. The police express the con-
viction that Lofts died before Shayne
arrived.
