Houston. Texas, June 19.-tR-
Withdrawal Of Governor Albert c.
Richie Of Maryland from the Demo-
cratic presidential nomination race
has set political circles to buzzing
here q week before the national
Democratic convention, June 26.
It brought q statement from the
headquarters Of Senator James A.
Reed Of Missouri that the candidacy
Of the Missourian would prove an
insurmountable barrier in the way
Of the nomination plans of friends
Of Governor Alfred E. Smith.
Clem Shaver, chairman Of the ma
tional Democratic committee, con-
ferred behind closed doors with po-
litical leaders and refused to COM
ment on the action Of the Maryland
governor, but Edward S. Villmoare,
Senator Reeds campaign manager,
declared the Missouri senator con-
trolls enough votes to block the
nomination Of Governor Smith.
Arrival Of party leaders from
several states, brought conflicting
claims concerning doubtful delega-
tions.
From Mr.. Shaver came the opin-
ion that the farmers who were de-
MED admittance at the Republican
convention at Kansas City, would
come here and would be given q
hearing on their plea for relief for
agriculture.
I'VE cannot promise that their
every demand will be met, but we
will give them an opportunity te
present their case" he said.

FEAR ANOTHER ATTACK
OF "FLU' this WINTER
Surgeon General Cumming Says
More Severe Endemic IS a
Possibility.

Washington, Dec. IS R-Another
outbreak of influenza, more sewers
in nature than the disease now pre-
vailing, is regarded possibility
later in the winter by Surgeon
General Cumming. He said that he
viewed the situation at present an
serious. but declared that the pres
ent wave is mild in character ana
that there is an apparent absence
of complications.
There is little likelihood in the
opinion of the surgeon general that
the disease will not spread over
the Atlantic states. as it has the
west and parts of the south.
This seems to be a typical influ-
enza epidemic" he said, ''and it h
similar to the 1918 outbreak in the
mildness of the first cases"
Deaths in the 1918 wave of in
fluenza were 100000 in excess or
the normal number from the mana
dy, and in 1920 there were 100000
excess deaths, but in 1926 thero
were only between 5000 and 2O,-
600. Indications thus far have led
Surgeon General Cumming to be-
lieve that mortality this year ma,
be greater than in 1926.
He agreed with the estimate by
public health officers that there
were approximately million and
quarter new cases in the Uniten
States during the week ending De-
cember %. This estimate was based
on 24O.562 cases actually reported
from all but seven states.
Deaths from So cities for the
week ending December % We're 10
reports to the census bureau show
ed, as compared with AIS deaths in
GO cities Cor the previous week.
The general said this bore
out expectations of a large increase
in deaths as the number of cases
| increased.

A shrewd and wealthy old landlord

has masSed large amount of wealth.
He is the owner of a large number OF
the dwelling houses, and it is said of
him that he Is not overScrupulouS about
the rent he charges whenever he can
find a tenant whom he knows to be re-
Spcnsible His object is to lease his
house for a term of years to the best
possible tenant and get the last penny
out of him in rent.
A diminutive Frenchman called on
him on day in the Winter to hire a
dwelling he owned in Portland and
which had been vacant for a long time.
References were given, and the land
lord, ascertaining that the prospective
tenant was man "after his own heart. I"
Immediately commenced to play the
miser with him.
The landlord discovered that the ten
kment appeared to suit the Frenchmarl,
so he placed an exorbitant figure as
the rent. The leases were drawn up
and duly executed, and the tenant
moved into his new quarters.
