Preston P. Lynn is the General Manager of John Wanamaker's New York establishment This in itself doesn't make him of particular inter est to the man in the street, but when it is learned that he worked his way up from office boy and that he recently declined the nomination for the mayoralty of New York City who is the highest paid municipal executive in America, Mr. Lynn becomes an object of more than ordinary interest to every one. Recently Mr. Lynn was tendered the nomination by the Business Men's League, of New York, which is a nonpartisan organization composed of representative business men, laboring toward municipal efficiency, with a business man in New York City's City Hall as the principal means to this end. Joseph Yeska, chairman 6f - the Business Men's League, who himself is one of the biggest specialty garment manufacturers in the country, expressed extraordinary surprise
when told that Mr. Lynn had declined the nomination because of the pressure of business. Mr. Yeska intimat
ed that Mr. Lynn may be "drafted" i
into the service of the municipality, and that if he still objects, Mr. Wanamaker may be appealed to release Mr. Lynn that New York may have the opportunity of enjoying better city government.

LONDON, Aug. 2. "Looking from the broadest aspect at the events of the past fortnight in Russia," say3 Major General F. B. Maurice, chief director of military operations in the
war office, in his weekly talk today to j
