BALTIMORE ARMORT
IS IN READINESS
208,000 Make Request For
10,000 Tickets
Baltimore, June 10. —Baltimore now
awaits the coming of the thousand
and ninet ydelegates to the democratic
national convention, the preparations
lor which practically have been com
pleted. Already the advance guard of
boomers for candidates for the presi
dential nomination have pitched their
camps on the battleground and are
laying the final plans of campaign.
Urey Woodson, secretary of the na
tional committee, has telegraphed here
that his wife was ill in New
York, and that he would be unable
to be in Baltimore for several days.
Norman E. Mack, national chairman
will come tomorrow. Mr. Woodson, as
ecretary of the national committee,
has charge of the notices of contests
tiled by certain delegations.
Application for tickets to the con
ention from prospective visitors from
rll over the country are pouring in
and it was learned tonight that nearly
200,000 requests for tickets have been
leceived. As there are about 10,000
tickets to be distributed the committee
is having its difficulties in making as
signments.
Col. John I. Martin, sergeant-at
arms of the democratic national con
enticn, came in tonight from St
Louis and will open the headquarters
of the national committee when Chair
man Mack arrives.
During the week Chairman Mack
will consider the numerous applica
tions for positions of doorkeepers, as
sistant sergeant-at-arms, messengers
and pages of the convention.
The convention hall stands in readi
ness for the gathering of delegates.
Nothing remains to be done and
guards have been thrown about the
big armory building to prevent vandal
ism.

HOT FIGHT
I BEING MADE
ONPOSTAGE
TO SECURE ONE CENT RATE
i
Many Trade Bodies are in
Favor of It
Hundreds of commercial bodies,
chambers of commerce, boards of
trade and national associations, as
well as thousands of business houses
have endorsed the campaign for one
cent letter postage. A bill providing
for the lower rate has been introduced
in congress and is being supported by
the National One Cent Letter Postage
association, which has its headquar
ters at Cleveland, O.
Several score of chambers of com
merce and boards of trade have come
out in favor of the movement.
Not only the commercial bodies of
the United States, but many of the
big national associations of business
men have gone on record endorsing
the lower rate. Among these import
ant organizations are the National
Hardware association, «the National
Supply and Machinery Dealers’ asso
ciation, the National Dry Goods asso
ciation, the National Wholesale Lum
ber Dealers’ asosciation, the National
Grocers' association, the National Shoe
Wholesalers’ association, and the State
Grocers’ associations of Illinois and
Ohio, and a large number of other or
ganizations.
The hardware dealers of the coun
try have expressel themselves particu
larly strong on the subject, every state
and retail hardware association
throughout the United States, as well
as the national retail hardware asso
ciations and the national hardware
jobbers’ association having gone on
record for cheaper postage.
In addition to the campaign being
indorse- 1 bv every bank in the city • f
Cleveland, the «e°dquarters of the as
sociation and those of th elarge cities,
the Illinois, North Carolina, ‘A-bcom
sin hankers and many other similar
organizations have come out favoring
one cent letter postage.
Scores of other miscellaneous busi
ness organizations in every state in
the union have had the matter pre
ably upon it. In addition to those, sev
eral hundred business men are con
ducting compaigns on their own sta
tionery, urging their friends to sup
port this movement for one cent letter
postage.
The association, while seeking a
one cent rate is also strongly in favor
of better compensation for postoffice
employees, the establishment of a re
tirement fund for aged employees both
of which reforms would result in bet
ter service for the department.
Many prominent financiers and poli
ticians, as well as government offi
cials are backing the movement fo v
one cent letter postage. These in
clude President Taft, Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock and his various assist
ants. Senator Theodore E. Burton and
Representative John W. Weeks, who
introduced the bill for one cent letter
postage in congress. Vigorous efforts
are to be made to have the bill passed
upon at as early a date as possi
upon at as early, a date as possible.
Hundreds of newspapers, magazines,
trade periodicals and house organs
located in almost every county of
every state in the union have given
loyal support to the movement for low
er postage by publishing articles con
cerning the progress of the work
Many of these publications have come
out editorially in favor of the rnoce-
I ment and it is believed thta the tint*-
is almost ripe for the lower postage
rate.
James J. Rritt, third assistant post
master general, who is in charge of
first class mail matter carried by the
department throughout the United
Ftates, strongly favors the lower rat >.
“In my judgment,’’ says Mr. Britt.
! ’ a readjustment of postal rates, so
.that each class of mail matter shall
pay cost of service, will make possible,
not only one cent letter postage, bul
also many improvements in the postal
service.’’
were made today and so well have the
architects planned that a speaker onlv

Owing to disturbance incident l<

shal Farnan, of the local police de
partment probably will call upon other
large cities for special detectives to
assist in watching the convention
crowds.

FIVE MEN
RULE WORLD
OF FINANCE
AS SHOWN AT THE INPUT
t
Into the “Money Trusl” Re
cently
New York, June 10. —The immense
power wielded by the New York Clear
ing House association over the banks
i f the country's financial center anJ
arbitrarily lodged in the hands of five
men should he placed under judicial
regulation, it was conceded by William
Sherer, manager of the association on
the witness stand here.
Mr. Sherer was the chief witness at
the first hearing held ■by the house
committee on banking and currency,
which is investigating the so-called
money trust. The committee is in New
York to take such testimony as its
powers will permit, pending the pas
sage of the amendment to the banking
law now in the senate, under which
the committee hopes to be able to en
for'-c- from the banks its demands for
the information which it expects to
make the basis of remedial legislation.
The main inquiry will he taken up
next fall.
While to date the inquiry is char
acterized by Chairman Pujo as “collat
eral” to the main scope of the inquiry,
Samuel Untermeyer, special counsel
for the committed, developed through
Mr. Sherer testimony to the effect, that
the destiny of practically every finan
cial institution in New York was po
tentially at the mercy of the "mere
whim, determination or order” of the
five risen who composed the “New York |
clearing house committee.” Mr. Un
termeyer referred to the regulations
of the association conferring this
power as “monstrous,” and also rais
ed the question as to whether the as- |(
sociation did not violate the interstat: <
commerce laws in the banking opera
tions of its members with out-of-town
banks. 1

FELDER NOT WORRIED

Atlanta, June 10. —Thomas B. Felder
one of Georgia’s delegates-at-lajt
to Baltimore, says he has no fears of
the threats of Gov. Cole L. Blease to
have him arrested when he passes f
through South Carolina with the Geo v
gia delegation.
“1 shall go artd come when 1 please,”
he said. “I ant absolutely unconcerned
with this latest effort of Blease to ob

1 shall go with the delegation.”
He says there is nothing to the
Blease charges, the Newberry county

no attention to it.
