SILENCE ENJOINED UPOMJROOSEVELT Doctor Makes Progressive Statesman Cancel His Campaign Speeches.
OYSTER BAY, N. Y.. June 27. After a conference with bis physician, Colonel Rosevelt today announced that he bad decided upon his plan for the summer political campaign. Dr. Alexander Lamber came to Sagamore Hili from New York today, and after making an examination told Colonel Roosevelt that be would have to take a rest. Although this news was displeasing to the energetic statesman, he bad to consent to it. Ever since his return from the Brazilian jungles the former president has suffered from intermittent attacks of fever, which have greatly weakened him. Throat Trouble Vexes. "You must do as little in the way of campaign work as possible," the doctor said. "Your system is ridden with malaria and your throat is weak. You ought to have four months of rest." "But the campaign will be over by that time," the colonel said. "Can't help that," retorted the physician. "Rest is more important than politics." Later Dr. Lambert said he found Colonel Roosevelt suffering from an enlargement of the spleen as well as malarial fever. Colonel Roosevelt told the correspondents this morning that he has canceled his proposed trip to California where he intended speaking in behalf of Governor Hiram Johnson. Colonel Roosevelt said he would have to cut down his speech making, but would deliver about a half dozen important political speeches in New York state. When he travels he will eliminate rear platform talks. He will make only one speech in New York for the Progressives instead of two as had been planned. It will be delivered next Tuesday.

Above is a scene in front of Buckingham Palace, residence of the King and Queen of England. The women stormed the Palace, which was defended by more than a thousand armed policemen. Dodging the police by a ruse they almost gained the Palace gates. There was rioting for many minutes and scores were arrested. In the picture a "bobby" is seen grasping two rioters and attempting to stem the tide of wild women. Below are the ruins of the club house, on the Neville cricket grounds. Usual suffrage literature found scattered about after the fire, left no doubt as to the perpetrators of this outrage.

BOARD INCREASES TOTAL TAX LEVIES
This year's session of the board of review, which will cease to exist for 1914 next Tuesday, has been a fruitful one, according to the Auditor's report. A gain on banks, trust companies and corporations in the county of $617,470 is shown, most of II being in the city of Richmond. In addition to this, the board increased townships from five to twenty-five per cent on personal property for equalization causes. On the whole, although some loss was first shown on personal property there will now be a substantial gain. This cannot be determined until the board closes its session. Banks and trust companies are assessed this year $1,377,140 as compared with $1,363,250 last year. Corporations are assessed $2,971,960 as compared with $2,368,380 last year. The total for both in 1914 is $4,349,100 and in 1913, $3,731,630. The two big Richmond corporations, the Richmond City Water Works company and the Light, Heat and Power company were the cause of the good increase in assessment. The increase , distributed over the. county would not make a big showing, but chiefly confined as it is to the city of Richmond, it is considered excellent for the municipality. SOFFRAGETS STORM NATIOWALCAPITAL Present Petitions Asking Legislation Giving Women Right to Vote. WASHINGTON, June 27 For the third time within the year, members of the National Woman's Suffrage association carrying three hundred petitions from thirty-eight states laid their case before the senate and house today and demanded legislation to insure to women equal political rights with men.

U, S, EXPRESS FIRM READY TO DISSOLVE Local Branch Ships Horses to Dayton Preparatory to Closing Doors. v
All preparations have been completed for the closing of the Richmond office of the United States Express company next Tuesday, on which date every office of the company will be closed because the gigantic corporation will then go out of business, as was announced some time ago. The two wagons and the horses of the local office have been shipped to Dayton, from which point they will be sent to Chicago to be disposed of. E. O. Ewan has been the local agent of the company. Six men composed his working force. Mr. Ewan has shipped all the records of the office to New York and is ready to turn the key in the door of the office at 7 South Seventh street, when the appointed hour arrives. Some time ago he purchased a south end grocery store and will continue in business in Richmond. "It wasn't the parcels post that put us out of business, it was the Interstate Commerce Commission," Ewan said today. "They reduced the express rates to such a point that we could not compete with the government's parcels post on an equal basis." WALKOVER STORE OPENS JULY 7 A branch store of the Walkover Shoe company will be opened in Richmond, July 7, at the location of the Mary Brothers store, which was recently purchased by Will Turner, of Kokomo.

King George and Queen Mary were the victims of suffraget violence while driving to Hyqde Park this afternoon, but the incident had no serious consequence. While their majesties were on their way to view a parade of London firemen, the suffragets broke through the police lines and hurled two bundles of suffraget literature into the royal carriage, at the same time shouting, "You must stop torturing our women." One bundle struck the king's hat. knocking it from his head. The other struck Queen Mary's parasol, causing it to fall into the bottom of the carriage. The women were seized by the police and saved from a mob that surged around them. The king took the situation coolly and with a smile stooped to pick up his headgear.

Lyons, who has just returned from a trustees meeting at Indiana university, is not displeased with the water situation at Bloomington, nor are the other university trustees, Mr. Lyons said. The trustees took no official action on the water supply matter since the city council of Bloomington is active in securing plans for a fourteen or sixteen mile pipe line to the White river. Press reports have been greatly exaggerated. Dr. Lyons said. The reports that citizens are saving bath water to use for tother purposes and are utilizing every drop of water to the best advantage, is unfounded, he said. However the city has passed a rule which prevents sprinkling with a hose. This is the only measure of economy and also the only hardship. The city council has also appropriated to build a $15,000 or $15,000 retaining wall which will form a pond fed by two big springs. Under normal conditions there Is enough water with this additional supply, to last from three to five months without rains. The university is not In danger. The fact that there is a flat rate and no meter service, is one of the reasons for the great waste of water in the past. Many leave hydrants open constantly during the summer to keep the water fresh. The new pipe line undr consideration will cost millions of dollars and cannot be completed in less than one and one-half years. SENATE AUTHORIZES TWO BATTLESHIPS WASHINGTON.
