ARE SWELTERING OUT IN A DESERT Part of the Hoosier Elks' Delegation Are Probably' Cussin' Nevada. RICHMOND GANG ARRIVES OWING TO THE HEAVY TRAFFIC NEARLY ALL THE DELEGATIONS ' TO THE CONVENTION ARE ARRIVING LATE. Los Angeles, Cal., July 12. Indiana and Indianapolis Elks are scheduled to reach Los Angeles for the grand lodge meeting today, but that is no sign they will get there then. The Salt Lake route, which Is being managed by "Tom" Peck, who learned ' railroading at Indianapolis two de- . cades ago, has had more than, it bar-

gained for in Elk trains and schedule time, the best possible service now means from fire to fifteen hours' de- : lay. . Sunday the Hoosiers were sweltering In the Nevada desert, with a temperature of 110 and praying for , the hour when they will crawl through Cajon Pass and look down . on the green San Barnardino valley. Plenty of Hoosier Hustlers. But there are plenty of Hoosier here. The most conspicuous man here outside of Garry Herrmann himself. Is Joseph T. Fanning, now of i - Newt York, who is regarded as th head and front of the Herrmann campaign. He came with the Herrmann special along with Joseph E. Bell of Indianapolis.. Joseph E. Hennings of Anderson lodge, former grand tyler and lecturing, knight, reached the city this morning. He is a member of the credentials committee. . v Frank E. Herlng of South Bend lodge is also mixing with his numerous grand lodge friends. , ; Another zealous member is J." Bennett Gordon of Richmond, who reached town with several other Richmond Elks and headed . straight for Fanning's headquarters at the . Alexandria. ';v.: -.i -".':'. AH the Hoosiers so; far. reporting are in the Herrmann band wagon, though it Is understood several members from the state will vote for SammiS. . V;.; '" " Elks headquarters here has not yet v '. been advised how, many are coming from No. 13 and; there is no arrangement for them as to Quarters. Detroit Delegation" Is "Lost." The train bringing the Detroit delegation is lost somewhere between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, no word of it having come since it lefts Salt Lake City. Spanning all of the downtown streets are floral arches bearing clusters of colored lights, where at night purple and white glow in a thousand forms, outlining the emblems of the Elks. Forty-five thousand visitors

are now in the city. Today, In Pasadena, the delegates will partake of a barbecue. Later there will be field sports and chariot races, an exhibition of wild West riding and a stage holdup. Sayre Boom is Advanced. With the arrival of 'Warren G. Sayre of Wabash (Ind.) lodge today it became certain that the name of the grand old man of the Elks win be presented for promotion from the station of grand esteemed lecturing knight to that of grand esteemed leading knight. ' Judge Sayre gave hit consent after being Importuned by his grand lodge friends and Frank E. Herlng of South Bend will make the nominating speech. No other candidate is announced, and it Is deemed sure that Sayre will be elected unanimously. , .

Indianapolis, train, wired G. T. Fanning last night that the Hoosiers are behind a wreck in Nevada and would not reach Los Angeles until 5:30 o'clock this afternoon. As all train arrivals are doubtful it is feared the late hour fixed may be too early. But they will surely be here by Tuesday, when the election occurs, to cast almost all of the sixty votes oa board for Herrmann.

TAFT WILL FORCE CONGRESS ACCEPT f CORPORATION TAX (Continued From Page One.) restraints of interstate trade and monopoly. Such corporations constitute a small percentage of those engaged in interstate business. In the president's judgment, the unlawful trusts should bo restrained with all the efficiency of injunctive protests, and the persons engaged in maintaining them should be punished with all the severity of criminal prosecution in order that the methods pursued in the operation of their business shall be brought within the law. It is fully realized in Washington that a holding company is the means usually adopted for the purpose of placing monopolization beyond the reach of the federal arm. . The president, Attorney General Wickersham, and the other lawyers of his cabinet have been considering with the greatest care the remedy to frame to put an end to the evils that this form of organization produces. In connection with the reorganization of the department of justice, the bureau of corporations, and the interstate commerce commission, it is proposed to develop a general plan of economic reform which will be submitted to congress at the beginning of the regular session. Opposition to Taft Lives. It is the intention of Mr. Taft to explain his views in this connection during the trip which he proposes to make next fall through the west to the Pacific slope. He also will dwell upon - the tariff revision which has been effected; for the conferences which he has" had with the leaders of the senate and .house have convinced him that a bill can be framed which can be defended.

All IHOOIRY INTO DEATH OF MARINE

in official Action Will Be Taken In the Mysterious Sutton Case. HIS MOTHER TAKES HAND SHE WANTS TO FREE THE NAME OF THE DEAD LIEUTENANT FROM THE STIGMA OF SUICIDE NEW DEVELOPMENTS. New York, July 12. Developments have been coming thick and fast in the mysterious case of Lieutenant James N. Sutton of the Marine Corps who was shot to death at Annapolis in October, 1907, since his mother, James N. Sutton, of Portland, Oregon, who declares he was murdered, obtained the order for an official inquiry, which begins next Monday and at which she will endeavor to clear his name of the stigma of suicide. Many witnesses are now coming forward who will testify to incidents which, it is asserted, all tend to show that Sutton was shot by a brother officer and that his death did not occhr in the manner described at the inquiry at that time. Miss Mary E. Stewart of Pittsburg, to whom it is alleged Sutton was engaged and who is an imporant witness in the case, is said to have hurried from her home to Canada with the intention of staying there until the new investigation is over. Mrs. Sutton says her son was with Miss Stewart until a few minutes before midnight on the night he was killed and that through Miss Stewart she could prove that Sutton was not at the dance at Carvel Hall as had been alleged. It is declared today, that the defeat of U. S. Senator Charles Fuller of Oregon for re-election was largely due to the fact that he made no serious effort to have the navy department reopen the investigation into Sutton's death. Evidence on which is based the assertion that Sutton did not kill himself includes the statement - that he did not have time to go to his room afer the alleged quarrel with other officers and get a revolver with which it was declared he shot himself. FARMERS HOW HAVE RECOURSE III LAW They Can Bring Action Against Gypsies. Farmers who do not want to be bothered by gypsies camping along the roads intersecting their premises have recourse to law.

EFFECT OF TARIFF IS ALREADY FELT Local Merchant Is Informed That Price of Clothes to Be Increased. WORD IS JUST RECEIVED THIS FALL RICHMOND MEN WILL FIND THEIR READY-MADE 8UIT8 WILL AVERAGE MORE "TH AN A DOLLAR MORE. Here Is the first result of the passage by the senate of the, proposed tariff schedule. A local clothing merchant has received word from a Chicago manufacturing establishment that the price of woolens has been increased so that every, suit will cost at least $1.50 more this fall at wholesale price. This will be something for the men who buy the clothes and also cast the ballots to remember. The senate refused to revise the tariff downward and the election of senators is not by popular vote. But the men who choose the senators are selected by the men who wear the clothes, so the natural deduction shows where the process of elimination will have to begin. OFFICIALS LEAVE OIIFISHIIIG TRIP Fish and Game Shivering With Fright. .
