CHICAGO— Indiana’s delegation to she national convention here* is the focal point of almost all attention—the dry leaders shake their heads commiseratingly when they mention the Hoosier state and wonder how the home of their senatorial apostle, Arthur R. Robinson, lave fallen so from its high estate. The wets point to it with pride and gleefully declare: “Indiana is pointing the way.” And, to tell the truth, the Indiana delegation doesn't know what it’s all about. In asides, the individual members who were delegates to the state convention last week, confessed, "Why, we thought that the platform prohibition declaration was for modification or referendum.” All that you hear around this town is “repeal.” In the early morning, loud speakers mounted on trucks awaken you with the sound of an exhortation for repeal of the dry laws and the eighteenth amendment. No sooner Is that truck gone than another comes along, begging the American people to refrain from the sinful folly of killing the laws which are making us so moral, s * *r As you walk along the street, bevies of young women come up all beribboned with “Repeal Prohiblbition” banners, and stick a button on your coat declaring. “I am wet.” If you refrain from wearing that button, a more matronly and not so comely group begs you to don a pin declaring, "I am dry,” which, in all conscience can't be done, although any one would be glad to oblige the dear old ladies. Music is heard up the street and along come a motorcade of buses, each with a sign bearing the single myAic word, “Diogenes.” Inspection reveals that this is the

Partlow and the Partlow-Jenkins Motor Car Company in superior court five. Physicians expect recovery of Paul Fisher, 36, a salesman, who attempted suicide Monday by inhaling gas at his home, 209 North Sheffield avenue. Neighbors found him lying on the floor of the kitchen with all jets of a gas range open. He was taken to city hospital. Clothing valued at $l9O was stolen Monday night from a cleaning shop at 1564 College avenue, operated by Henry Brown, 1907 Park avenue, he reported to police today. Entrance was gained through a transom. The loot included six dresses and eight suits. Removal of the Haag drug store from 55 Virginia avenue to a room at the entrance of the Pembroke Arcade building makes vacant a business room, which despite its small size, is a landmark in the near downtown business section. A larger store will occupy the new quarters with the same personnel. Delegation from the Indianapolis Electrical Maintenance Engineers Association will leave Wednesday for Cleveland to attend third annual conference of the engineers, which will open Thursday, with industrial centers of the middlewest represented. A misstep into a hole, dug for erection of a telephone pole, today was basis of a SIO,OOO damage suit filed by Hattie Lozier against the Indiana Bell Telephone Company. The suit alleges she received internal injuries wheti she accidentally stepped into a hole. TAKES LEAVES BATHING SUIT Swimmer Who Broke Into Dance Hall Sought by Police. Police today were searching for a city swimmer who used a saxophone for a fig leaf and left naught but a green bathing suit and a pair of scissors for clews as to his identity. H. L. Bailey, 1037 North Jefferson street, manager of the Broad Rippli* dance hall, reported to police that someone entered the hall by cutting a screen and stole a saxophone valued at $165. Bailey believes the thief must have been one of the park’s swimmers, for he left a verdure green bathing suit in the place of the “sax.” A pair of shears found-near the suit were used to effect an entrance, police believe.

caravan of the prohibition research group, touring the country to find a man reformed by prohibition in the more than a decade which has elapsed since adoption of the eighteenth amendment. Twenty thousand people attend a wet rally one night, and the next noon 4,000 Democratic and Republican women meet at the Naval Reserve Armory to protest any weakening of the prohibition law. n tt Hoosiers who boast proudly of their wet platform stand expressed themselves as being annoyed greatly by the cards entitled “Notice to Guests” in the rooms of the Palmer house, where state headquarters is located, which declared: “The prohibition law forbids furnishing accessories with knowledge that the same are for use in consumption of intoxicating liquor. Any violation of the law may subject you as well as ourselves to severe penalties. To avoid embarrassing situation, we shall appreciate your co-operation in strict observance of the law.” That notice, howevel, doesn’t seem to be bothering many, as the hotel reports a greatly increased sale of ginger ale and white rock. It is a peculiar thing that, with the thousands of unemployed and panhandlers on the streets, all attention Is ebneentrated on the liquor law and none on unemployment relief by party leaders. Perhaps they believe that with the doing away of the one, the other will follow^. Market Note—Convention liquor prices are quoted as follows: Gordon Gin. labeled prettily, but of the bathtub manufactured variety, $2 a quart; Bourbon, $4 and $5 a quart; Scotch, $8.50 an imperial quart. Don't smack your lips—the bootleggers say that it is all syndicate liquor, and cut.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.
Following is the explanation of Ripley's “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Monday’s Times: A Handless Razor Randion was born of Hindu parents in Demarera, the northern mainland of South America, about fifty-six years ago. Although he never had either arms or legs, he can thread a needle, feed himself, roll a cigaret and do many nearly impossible things. His most astounding accomplishment, however, is shaving himself unaided, using an old-fashioned razor. He has been exhibited in every part of the globe and greatly admired for his accomplishments and patience. Wednesday—A Midget Mystery. Other Livestock By United Press PITTSBURGH.

adjourned at noon until 2 p. m. Myers made the “client” luncheons “even-Stephen” by donating 25 cents to the noon meal of the plaintiff, Mrs. Mary Marion, Lee's wife. Both the wife, Marion, and the wife’s mother pleaded hunger and depression-flattened pocketbooks. But oddly the mother-in-law in this case defended the husband on the “lazy” charge. Her daughter scorned her in court. A quarrel that ensued when Marion attempted to move a twin bed into a room for his mother-in-law to sleep upon, resulted in Mrs. Marion’s charges against her husband. Mrs. Marion, according td testimony, refused her mother sleeping quarters, and declared she needed the bed for anew roomer in her home. The lengthy testimony in the case necessitated a continuance until afternoon's session of court, with the resultant “fr|e meal” offers of defense and prosecuting attorneys.

LOWER CABLES FORGE FUTURE MARK-DOWN Support Declines as English’ Values Move Off on Weather News. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. June 14.—Wheat declined sharply as the Board of Board of Trade opened today as a result of the drastic liquidation at Liverpool. Support almost entirely was lacking and only buying against bid served to check the decline. Liverpool broke on the favorable weather in North America and Europe and on pressure from nearby wheat. . Com sold off with wheat. Oats eased and rye fell to new lows for the season on all deliveries. September and December wheat were at new low, with July only % cent above its low. At the opening wheat was % cent to I*4 cent lower, com was % cent lower, oats *4 cent lower and rye 7 n cent lower. Provisions were very dull. Liverpool was much lower than expected and weakened rapidly, declinning 1% cent to 1% cent by mid-afternoon. July corn maintains a strong position. although other months are somewhat weak.
