MPQ3B3S BPinters for Riflemen Bon Coming Matches at B Camp Perry (0.) Range HcAPT. E. C. CROBRMAN. C. 8. A. an overture consisting of a :BU arms firing school for these civilwho are not tuu" the nttlono! held by tlie government for the WDKiI of the country each year opens blast at Camp Perry, 0., Aug. 1. When the man In charge of the natebas, Col. Morton C. Mumma of the :avmlry, fires the starting pistol four;en hundred riflemen, presumably the )lck of the country, will endeavor to mock Ptrry’s 250 targets clear off the Christmas tree. This year, as in every year since 1916. ho government nays the expenses to the matches, and fheir subsistence while here, of a team of eights, n men from aeh state, and from the various R. O. T. camps. The civilian teams may come from he civilian rifle clubs, or from the ichools of the state, but every state Is mtltled to send a team. Team members receive a straight 5 nts a mile to cover transportation, and ;re given $1.50 a day while at the shoot or “eats.” The Infantry and cavalry of the reguar army, the marines and the navy are lso entitled to send teams, a privilege which is not taken this year by the lavy, bpt it 1? not overlooked by any other branch of the service. The infantry and cavalry and marine teams are already hard at work preparing for their argument as to who is to win the national team match, the blue ribbon event of the big national shoot. Not that this team match is confined to the service teams, but since the national guard disappeared into the ranks of the army, or practically since 1916, there has been no militia team strong enough to worry the service aggregations, while the civilian aggregations rarely have time enough to get up team work In spite of the good shots in their ranks. This year the civilian rifleman who draws his mileage and subsistence has to attend a two-weeks’ firing school to be conducted by the former Instructors of the army's small arms firing school of the days during the war. Following the close of the school, sbont Aug. 9. the matches of the National Rile association, open to anyone, and to any old sort of rifle or pistol, commence and run until the time for the government's matches, the national individual, the national pistol, the national pistol team match, and the national team match for the riflemen. In the latter only the regular service rifle and pistol may be used. The course of fire for the government s rifle matches, both for individuals and the teams, consist! of ten shots rapid lire—time, one minute —kneeling, and ten shots sitting, squstt'ng or kneeling, both strings at 290 yards, on the figure D target Then the riflemen fire twenty shots prone at 600 yards on the B target with twenty-inch buliseye, and twenty shots at 1,000 yards on the c target with thirty-six-inch bull. This ig used in some of the National Rifle association matches as well. m • AMATEURS ALL-DAY CARD FOR AMATEURS A flve-mlle cross-country run, starting at Pleasant Run boulevard nnd Arlington avenue at 9:15 this morning and finishing at Willard park, started the ball rolling In the big amateur ath.etlc day program today.

HARDING HOME TRIP ON LAST LEG IN OHIO Candidate and Party Leave Zanesville for 100-Mile Drive to Marion. ZANESVILLE, 0., July s.—With the i greatest welcome of his career awaiting, Senator Warren G. Harding, republican presidential candidate, started off for his triumphal return to Marion, 0., his home town, today. There his campaign will be touched off by the first demonstration for the candii date since his nomination at Chicago. His friends, neighbors, and probably 25,000 visitors from Ohio and the middlewest will crowd around the Harding home in Marion to welcome the candidate. Boyhood friends and old men who have seen the nominee grow up from Infancy will witness the homecoming. NOW OCT OF SECLUSION. Today’s activities will bring Senator Harding down to the front of the stage and out of the seclusion which he has carefully maintained since his nomination. Ilis first address as a candidate will be made from his porch in reply to the welcome of his home folks. From that porch Senator Harding plans to conduct his campaign for the presidency. Senator Harding has Insisted that his maiden speech as a presidential candidate be made to his home folks as a tribute of gratitude to them and it was with deep emotion that he rode through the scene of his boys along the road to Marion today. WILL ARRIVE IN AFTERNOON. With Mrs. Harding riding beside him, the nominee motored out of here immediately after breakfast, planning to arrive in Marlon during the afternoon while the Fourth of July celebration is in progress. At six o’clock the welcome ceremony will begin at his home. Wrapped In the events of the occasion Senator Harding displayed little Interest in the proceedings at San Francisco, although he scanned the morning newspapers carefully to note developments, MOTOR TRIP ENJOYED. The trip of nearly 100 miles from Zanesville to Marlon today is the last leg of a delightful motor trip from Washington which Senator and Mrs. Harding have enjoyed to the utmost. Motoring through the picturesque Cumberißnds nnd historic spots. Including battle fields of the civil war, afforded complete relaxation from the intense excitement and strain, of the past three weeks.

8 OF 24 WHO ESCAPED JAIL ARE RETAKEN (Continued From Page One.) other prisoners were wriggling their way through the opening. The leaders secured Dreier’s revolver, a black-jack, keys and cap. Unlocking the doors leading to the main corridor of the Jail the men hurried down the iron stairway to the first floor. There they unlocked the door leading Into the main office and a second heavy steel door leading into the Jail yard. The twenty-four desperate prisoners scattered in all directions. TWO PRISONERS REACH DRIER. Ten minutes after the twenty-four had escaped, Pftster and Yates, two prisoners, wriggled through the opening where the bars had been cut and reached Dreler. They untied Dreler and unfastened the gags. So tight had been the gag across his face that when the gag was released his face began swelling almost beyond recognition. The two prisoners carried Drier to the office and were met on the stairs by Captain of Police Rsy. The Marion county Jail was built in 1892 and at that time, the contracting company offered a SSOO reward to any person who could saw the interior bare of the Jail. Although there has been numerous attempts at this and a number of escapes, tho interior bars were never before sawed. The method-used by the prisoners was to heat the bars by use of oil, signs of which were found in the cell rooms today. IMPROVISE A BLOW TORCH. A tin sprayer used for disinfection was employed as a blow torch to increase the heat From some unknown source the prisoners had obtained a pair of glovos, which protected their hands while using the hot saws. They had been working at sawing the bars for at least three weeks, according to other prisoners who had feared to inform the sheriff. Sawing during the night, they would fll! the crevice in the bar* with soap, thus concealing the marks of the saw in the daytime. After one end of each bar had been completely sawed through, the prisoners sawed partially through the other. They had taken a heavy, weight, which was used to balance the cell doore, and with this as a hammer battered down the two bars, which broke off. A long string wrapped around a short piece of heavy wire was found by Sheriff Miller hidden in the ceil where the bars were sawed. CONFEDF.RATBS HUNG SAWS ON END OF STRING. According to the sheriff, the wire was used as a weight and thrown out of tho window, where confederates attached saws to the string. This string was then drawn in by the prisoners. This must have been done In daytime while the prisoners were 'cleaning the outside corridor of federal row. This method has been used twice before since Miller has bean sheriff, but a Jail delivery was prevented by other prisoners giving information. Following the escape,' Fred Heler, hotel keeper, serving a sentence on a charge of operating a blind tiger, said he believed that the men had b*en working for at least three weeks cutting the bars. Heier is a cell boss and a trusty and when seen today said that three weeks ago he was on the third floor of the Jail, directly over the ceil from which the escape was made. “I heard a sound as if someone were scraping or sawing some place near me,” said Heier. "I listened and then placed my ear against a heating pipe which was near the wall, but the sounds stopped and I was not sure that I had heard someone sawing the bars.” Reported Dead, Man Walks in on Family LAFAYETTE, Ind., July s.—Richard Mohr had been reported killed and his friends and relatives had long since mourned him as dead. Sunday he walked in on a gathering of relatives. When he enlisted he was a barber and was part owner of the Fowler hotel barber shop. In the world war he served in the I capacity of stretcher bearer on seven ' battle fronts.

Break Deadlock , Is Plea to Women SAN FRANCISCO, July s.—An appeal to the democratic women to get together and cast the decisive votes in the nomination of a presidential candidate was made today by Miss Elizabeth Marbury of New York. “The women must try and nominate the man who is going to live up to our platform,” said Miss Marbury. “If favorite eons are not the right sons, let vis forget them and nominate a man who can stand on our platform.’’

BRITAIN WOULD SELL HUN SHIPS U. S. Merchant Marine Arouses J. Bull’s Interest. BERLIN, July s.—British shipping interests are reported to be holding out olive branch of reconciliation to their former deadly rivals —the Germans. This attitude on the part of the British is said to be the result of the movement In the United States for a powerful merchant marine, especially the activities of the Harrlman family in the shipping field. Count Loctvlch, representing British shipping interests, has proposed to German marine magnates at Hamburg that the Hamburg-American ljfie repurchase from the British their owti German ships that were confiiacated on liberal terms with five years for payments. These German ships were confiscated by the British because of the sinking of the German fleet at Seapa Flow. One British condition was that the ships, even if controlled by thd Germans, should fly the British flag for at least two years. The Hamburg men refused this condition, nsklng the reason for it. The British are reported to have replied. “Because of public opinion and our allies.” The Germans wanted to know to which allies the British referred particularly and the British replied, “the .Americans.” WRITER SAYS ALL WAIT ON MA TO CHANGE HER MIND (Continued From Pare One.) fix, so they say Is the delegation from California. Nobody can do a thing with the women. Nobody can tell what to say to them that will have the least Influence and there the whole convention is sitting waiting for mother not to make up her mind, but to change it. And mother doesn't see any sense In changing It at all—and there you are. The male manipulators of the convention have run up against a snag nnd that snug is the "I won’t” of a woman. The great convention hall Saturday looked like a block party on a Saturday night, where everybody takes off her hat and makes herself at home. AU the women are quite at home at the convention now. Mrs. Borden Harrlman wears anew and more astounding dress every day. Yesterday It was brown chiffon, flowj ered with blue. Mrs. Brown, she that was Izetta Jewell, came to the party Saturday night in a whte chiffon party dress and a pearl necklace. Georgia Bass relaxed her strictly bnsi-ness-llke demeanor long enough to look rather interesting In a black dinner dress and all over the house the women had beautiful coiffure and nicely massaged faces, but for ail that they know their own minds and they don't Intend to be bossed, so goodness knows when tuts convention will end. Sometime lu a month or so, the practical politicians of this country will awake to the fact that something very important has happened and that It began no happen in San Francisco when the women put their foot In the door and insisted on having sn active and practical part in the deliberations of the democratic party. Lotta Has Lotta Say About Communists CINCINNATI, 0., July s.—That the communist labor party of America has adopted as Its emblem the bolshevik hammer nnd sickle, and agrees with .lie principles nnd objects of the bolsheviks of Russia and thn eninmunlsts, but has refused to adopt their methods for attaining them, Is the declaration made here by Lotta Burke. Her statement was mads In connection with her suit for $50,000 alleged damages. dus to a raid by members of the American Legion on communist labor headquarters. She sued local legionaries. Declaring that tho middle ylass of America would bo considered tho bourgeoisie of Russia, she said that the communist labor party Indorses the principles of the commune as enunciated, in tho third Internationale formed at Moscow.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, JULY 5, 1920.

DESPERADOES PUT UP FIGHT AGAINST POLICE (Continued From Page One.) an automobile accident at Keystone avenue and Seventy-first street. The police had arrested Mose Rubens, 554 South Illinois street, on a charge of intoxication. Rubens was one of six or seven men who were in an automobile which plunged into a ditch on Keystone avenue and Rubens was said to be too drunk to leave the scene after the accident. He told the police that he had been robbed of a S3OO ring. As the police were returning with Rubens they stopped In Broad Ripple at 5 morning. Hudson enteied a restaurant to purchase a pack of clgarets, and as he did so a young man attempted to leave the restaurant * * Hudson stopped tho man, who, in answer to questions, said that he worked at (fooler's billiard room, but when the young man gave the wrong address for Cooler’s placo the, polleqmen’s suspicions were aroused. Hudson Immediately searched the man and placed” him In the automobile. SOON ADMITS HE IS ONE OF THE JAIL BUNCH. “It’s no use, I might as well admit that I am one of the bunch,” said the suspect. “I know who you are,” answered Hudson. “Yes, I am Rogers, one of the fellows who got out,” said the suspect. “I thought you recognized me when you went into the restaurant. I would never have tried to escape only the detectives are trying to frame on me.” The man whose arrest the police were most anxious to make today was Arthur Welling, alleged safe blower, who, in company with Edward Stevens, was arrested at the Hotel Severln by Detectives Deßossett and Duncan several weeks ago. At that time the detectives captured the most complete safe-blowing outfit and kit of burglar tools ever found here. Stevens was one of the seventeen who <3ld not escape. The bole made by the removal of the two bars In the cell was Just ten Inches square and Sievens, being a ginnt in size, would have required a hole more than twice as big to have made hU escape. Welling, wbc escaped, never was arrested before his capture tu thia city, as far as the police were able to learn, and his home is believed to have been In California. Stevens has served time at Leavenworth for robbing a Kansas postofflee. Th two men are alleged to have blown a safe of the Western oil and filling station at Meridian and Twenty fifth streets. The seventh and eighth arrests were made by Detectives Hanks and Rugonstein, who captured Robert Clark and Emery Ayers. Ayers is the holdup man who was re leased on his own recognizance by Judge Collins of the criminal court, “because of his war record,” aud who was later arrested for stealing an automobile. The men were arrested in Ayres' home, 1045 North Mon t street.

SHERIFF LAYS BLAME ON COMMISSIONERS Sheriff Robert Miller placed the blame for the Jail delivery on the county commissioners. Miller stated that ha was not In the least surprised at the jail delivery. He said he had been expecting something of the kind to happen because of the condition of the locks on the cell doors of the Jail. •‘lf the county commissioners had made the repairs that I hid requested, only two or three prisoners would have escaped.” said Miller. "There Is not one cell door In the federal row on the second floor of the Jail that will lock. “The doors leading to the hallway and the corridors, of course, lock, but it Is impossible for the Jailers to lock the prisoners In the Individual cells where they sleep as not one of these cell door locks work. “I have warned the county commissioners that the desperate men confined in the Marion county Jail could cut the steel bars that separate the cells from tbo outside corridors. ’’While this had never been done before 1 was sure that it could be done if the men were expert enough and hud sufficient time. “(if course the outside bars of the Jail have often been sawed and n num her of escapes made,” said tho sheriff. Miller also said that be had done everything that a sheriff could do to safeguard his prisoners, and declared that he welcomed a complete Investigation, and wanted the blame put on the shoulders of the men who were guilty of not having the necessary repairs made. When Dr. Wright, the thousand dollar expert of New York City, was brought hero to make a surrey of county institutions, he pointed out In a written re port to the commissioners the need of repairs at the Jail. Ernest Dreler, night Jailer, who was beaten and gagged, has been employed In that capacity only two weeks, according to Miller. The sheriff expressed complete confidence In Dreler as a Jailer.

Chautauqua Season Opened at W inona WINONA LAKE, July s.—Tho annual chautauqua season will open today ;\id the gates will bo closed except to ticket holders until Saturday, Aug. 7. except on Sundays, when admission will be free. it is estimated that there are already 5,000 people here, the largest number that has ever gathered at the beginning of the season. • Harvest Work Makes Jury Getting Tough Judge James A. Collins today ordered the Marlon county Jury commissioners to draw new names for the grand jury and petit Jury Thursday, July 8. All members of the petit Jury were excused because of pressing business, and a similar reason necessitated drawing new names for the grand jury, excepting in the case of William Haverstick, Rural Route O, who died recently. Judge Collins anticipates much difficulty in securing a grand Jury nt this time of the year with so many farmers engaged in harvest work. Hoosier Farmers Busy With Harvest CRAWFORDSSVILLE, Ind., July 5. —lndependence day was celobruted by many farmers in this’ county In the wheat fields in an effort to take care of the crop. Corn plowing, hay harvest, wheat cutting aud thrashing are all staring the farmers of this community in the face at the same time. Infidelity Charge of South Bend Wife SOUTH BEND, Ind., July s.—Eliza Jane Jeffries has filed suit in the superior court, asking a separation from Elmer K. Jeffries, who has been her husband for more than thirty-five years and who is the father of her nine children. Infidelity is the charge against Jeffries, one Myrtle Johnson having been named in the complaint.

‘McAdoo or Cox* Say Tennessee Democrats KNOXVILLE, Tenn., July 5. Local democrats Sunday night sent the following telegram to the Tennessee delegation at San Francisco. “As loyal democrats, having at heart the best interests of the party, wo urge the Tennessee delegation to support either McAdoo or Cox as long as either Is a potential faetor. "You left Cox. "Why (ltd you not Join hands when the Crnckors broke to McAdoo?”

DEADLOCK STILL HOLDS IN ’FRISCO (Continued From Fage One.) news that any of them had met with success. So today each of the three lending candidates will again try to slaughter ( the other two In the buttle of ballots nnd : come forth tonight ns democracy’s choice for the presidency. PALMER MEN VERY HOPEFUL. Vance McCormick, one of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer s right-hand men, told the International News Service Just before the struggle began that the Palmerltes were very hopeful and that the attorney general himself felt very much encouraged; another Palmer leader claimed Palmer would quickly corral all tbo votes which Saturday evening bad gone over to Cox aud with these would come a large flock of others. “We certainly did all we could for( Cox,” tbls man said, admitting in this way tho tacit, though half-hearted, coalition against McAdoo, “but Cox couldn’t make a go of It. "Now we are going to have our turn. "Watch Palmer go over the top.”

Around Gov. James M. Cox's battle headquarters was much scurrying to aud fro. There It was given out that the Ohioan’s friends would storm tho convention today and wrest victory from what Saturday seemed like the beginning of defeat. In the McAdoo camp the leaders were grim of Jaw. “It will be McAdoo or a dark horse.*' said Thomas It. Love, democratic national chairman from Texas, and “there Isn’t a dark horse.” McAdoo adherents conceded another possible ninety votes to Cox during today’s balloting, giving that candidate somewhere around 550 votes. They asserted he could never hope to go beyond that figure and that would be his "high.” At the hour set for the convention to open the general Impression, picked up while making the rounds of tho headquarters and talking to the field mar•hals of the leading candidates, was that the end may wot come before tomorrow, if then. NONE OP “RIO THREE” ABANDON HOPE. None of the "big three” has given up hope. Each Insists the other two are definitely out of the race, while the pi aggers for each prepare to make a life and death struggle of it today. Koch of the three leading candidacies were being kept afloat as the balloting began by precisely the same force which makes a poker player stny in a poker game and draw to a pair of deuces. Any one of the three "big” candidates, McAdoo, Cox or Palmer, It Is conceded, can win. That is, the experts explain. It is impossible for one of them to win, though the chances seem to favor a dark horse. Will that dark horse be President Wilson. Wilt It be Ambassador John W. Davis or Vice President Thomas R. Marshall or Secretary of State Italnbrldge Colby? These wore some of today’s bets. It whs expected that the twenty-third ballot, the first to be taken, would show practically the same alignment as the twenty-second, -jvhlch gave C*>x, 430; McAdoo, 327, and Palmer, IG6, late Saturday night. MARSHALL MEN

WORK DILIGENTLY Hr GEORGE R. HOLMES. SAN FRANCISCO. July B.—Convinced that neither Cox, McAdoo nor l’almer can corral sufficient strength to gain tho nomination, the friends of Thomas It. Marshall worked diligently and quietly over tho wee-end In bis behalf. They admitted today that not much success crowned their efforts, but-they were still hopeful. These same friends of the vice president who worked so Industrially among the delegates Sunday, Insisted today that he is the one logical candidate to break this deadlock They termed him the “Harding bf this convention.” While admitting that not much headway bom made In the Marshall movement, his frienda said today they had an understanding that if neither of the "big three” showed the additional strength in today's early balloting, the vice president would be put In the running again for a abort time to ace what happen. The Indiana delegation held a caucus last night. The Marshall situation was thoroughly canvassed and his chnucea discussed frankly. The Hooslers were said to bo ready at any , time to start the vice president off with thirty votes, but they wanted to be assured that somebody else was coming along with them In sufficient numbers as to make Marshall a serious contender. Tammany was said to be friendly* to Marshall; so Is Illinois and New Jer- ’ sey. But even with a nucleus of 150 votes they were afraid that not enough strength could be attracted to the Marshall vehicle to make It a hand wagon and they preferred to hold the vice president in abeyance for the time being to see what the early balloting today would bring forth. Illinois Organ Man Dies at Evansville EVANSVILLE, Ind.. July s.—Frank T. Milner, 00, an organ builder, whoso home Is in Riverside, 111., is dead here of heart disease. For the last twenty-eight years he had been connected with the IV. W. Kimball Company. He built the organ In the Mormon temple at Salt Lake City and many other large organs that have been constructed In the United Stntcs. He had come to Evansville to look after matters connected with the building of a theater to cost $1,000,000. Milner was thirty-second-degree Mason.

Colufnbus Woman Dies of Pneumonia COLUMBUS, Ind., July s.—Mrs. Sarah Tabor, 89, Is dead at her home in this city today from pneumonia. Two sons of Mrs. Tabor were in the war and her worry over them is believed to lie the cause of her decline in health. Three sous an-1 two daughters survive. TWO THOUSAND TURKS KILLED. LONDON, July s.—Two thousand Turks were killed and several hundred taken prisoner when Greek forces, captured the city of Ballkessri, on the’Pau-derma-Smyrna railroad, according to an official statement received from Greek army headquarters at Athens today,

TAGGART LOSES ALL CONTROL OF INDIANA’S VOTE (Continued From Page One.) been In close touch by phone and messenger with Boss?. Women in and with the delegation are furious at the support given Cox, with the exception of Mrs. McCullough of Ft. Wayne, who joined the Cox camp early, and Miss Julia'Landers, who was politely asked to get off the convention floor when she attempted to talk Cox to one woman delegate. They declare Cox, divorcee and choice of Edwards's wei crowd, can not carry Indiana and they want McAdoo. Gov. Ralston, Bowman Elder and Walter Myers have done their best to represent Indiana's overwhelming sentiment for McAdoo. Hundreds of telegrams, all expressing sentiment that Indiana does not want Cox, have been received by Indiana delegates. Persistency with which J. M. Wallace of Marion, George Pigman, Liberty, and S. A. C. Thomas, New Harmony, refuse to vote for any one else adds to the impression that Taggart either can not or will not control or Influence the Indiana vote in further deliberations. It is an even guess as to whether Tag part remembers that it was on his suggestion than McAdoo supporters in Indiana refrained from any effort to pick McAdoo men for this delegation. Mori of McAdoo’s supporters here feel that they wero induced to avoid a safe way of reflecting Indiana's choice in the Interest of party harmony and that advantage has been taken of their consideration to bring about misrepresentation of Indiana's sentiment. As the convention reconvenes Indians, is expected to divide vote between Cox and McAdoo, although It is generally conceded in every other delegation that Cox has no chance of nomination. The general situation Is not unlike Indiana’s. Sunday’s rest disclosed no great drift, although popular sentiment was
