REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES
OPEN THEIR FINAL DRIVE TD
CAPTURE THE 493 DEFECATES
Last of 984 Who Will Sit In the Convention Were Selected in Yesterday's Primary Election—Result Shows
that No Candidate Has Votes Enough to Elect on
First Ballot, Wood Leading; With Only One-third of
Necessary Number.
(By Associated Frees)
CHICAGO, May 27.—Candidates for
the Republican nomination for the
Presidency today opened their final
drive to capture the 4*3 votes that spell
victory ln the convention which opens
here one week from next Tuesday.
The last of the 084 delegates who will
sit in the convention were selected yesterday when Vermont Republicans met
and chose eight uninstructed delegates.
Major General Leonard Wood, present returns showed, will enter the con
ventlon with more instructed votes
than any other candidate, but hi* total of 162 Is less than one third of the
number necessary to win the nomination.
The division of strength among the
large field of "favorite sons" practically precludes any possibility of a nomination of the first ballot. Even the
most optimistic campaign managers
here are not claiming victory before
the third ballot and the more conservative party leaders predict the break
will not come before the fifth or sixth
at earliest
Have IM Contests.
One big factor which may upset cam
palgn managers' productions ls yet to
be dealt with. One hundred and forty five contests have been or win be
filed more than one seventh of all the
seats ln the convention being at stake
and the national committee which
meets here Monday to decide the con-
testa and prepare the temporary roll
may materially alter the prospects of
several candidates.
The principal contests are between
supporters of Major Oeneral Wood and
Governor Frank O. Lowden. Senator
Johnson and other candidates are not
directly Interested but raise questions
regarding primary contests ln South
Dakota, New Jersey, Indiana, Michigan, Nebraska and other cities.
(4 Surplus Delegates.
In addition to the 145 contests, (4
surplus delegates with fractional votes,
have been chosen from ten states and
the Republican national committee's
rules provide that their right to seat
shall also be contested. The convention call stated that no oversized delegations should be seated and no seats
have been provided for these (4.
Senator Hiram Johnson and Senator Howard Sutherland of West Virginia were the principal gainers ln primaries and conventions    held    in    four
states during the past week. Senator
Johnson, returns indicate will get nine
of Oregon's ten votes and Senator Sutherland 16 from West Virginia. The
official count has not been completed
ln Oregon and West Virginia. Texas
Republicans, split ln two faction*, each
of which elected an uninstructed delegation with 23 votes. %
Figures compiled here show the following division of the convention vote:
Major General Leonard   Wood 153.
Senator Hiram v.. Johnson 109.
Governor Frank O. Lowden, 74.
Favorite sons and uninstructed 648.
Managers Claim Victory    '
Campaign managers here of the
three leading candidates all claim victory In statements Issued last night.
The Wood and Johnson camp* make
definite predictions as to their flrst
ballot vote, the supporters of the general claiming 385 votes and those of
the senator 238.
The Lowden forces, whtle professing
their confidence, are not prepared to
quote exact figures.
"Leonard Wood", says a statement
from his headquarters, "haa so Increased his votes ln the last week that
a first ballot prediction of 885 votes
waa made today at Wood headquarters
here. This ls more than the combined Instructed vote of all other candidates. On the first ballot, he will be
a big leader and this total will Increase
steadily  until nomination ls assured".
The Johnson headquarters, which are
now ln charge ot Hiram Johnson, Jr.,
the senator's son, announced with
equal poeltlveness that:—
"Senator Hiram W. Johnson already
has 236 pledged delegates who will vote
for him on the first ballot and will
stick with him to the last ditch. His
vote on the first ballot will be equal If
not greater than that of any other candidate and by the fifth or sixth ballot,
he will be nominated".
*.*We are going to win", said the state
ment from the Lowden camps. "We
have had no time to sum up and figure
therefore are unavailable, we are going
to win and the situation looks even bet
ter than lt did last week".
Preparing    ConventloB Hall.
Work on the convention hall ls progressing rapidly, and Charles R. Hall,
superintendent of the Coliseum haa assured the convention committee that
the more than 13,000 seats will be ln
place 24 hours before the convention

Hays, of the national committee.

DAMASCUS, May 27.—About five or
six years ago two well* ln search of oil
were drilled in about one mild southwest
of the village by a local company that
secured leases on a few farms ln the
vicinity of where the test wells were
put down. The first well drilled was on
the Charles Borton tract near Taylor
crossing and what appeared to be
strong gasser waa struck at a depth of
a little more than 600 feet. This gasser
made a noise that could be beard a long
distance from the well waa the gas belt
* struck. The West Virginia Oaa
Company waa soon on the ground to
purchase the well and paid about $2,000
for the well and some of the leased territory. No oil was fpund with the ga.".
and the gas found was only a pocket
and In a few days the flow of gas ceased but the expense of drilling the well
and the amount paid for the leases waa
more than paid for by the sale of th*
gaa well. *
At the same time another well waa
drilled in on the M. 8. Atkinson farm
about 500 yards south east of the gaa
well sold. At e depth of about 600 feet
ln the Bera sand oil was found and
drilling ceased. A 25 barrel tank waa
built for storing oil and several barrels
of oil were stored In the tank, but the
well was not pumped, and the well went
with the sale of the gaa well aa the casing waa drawn, aa a gaa company Is on
enemy to an oil well, but to this day oU two walla drilled.
ls seen to collect about the cas-Mesa well.
Last week, a gasoline engine with a
pump was placed above the well where
gas had been found and lt waa supposed
by those Jiving near the well that the
casing was to he drawn. In the place
of the casing being drawn the pump was
put to work pumping water into the
pipe ln the well. This was done by Mr.
Cameroon of' tbe Homeworth oil field
who has some knowledge of operating
tn the oil company. The pumping of the
water Into this well was to test whether
oil had collected In the well, as oil which
Is lighter than water Is forced to the top
of the well as the water sinks to the
bottom. The pumping was this week
and up to the present, several barrels
of oU sailing at near 37 per barrel has
been taken from the well which was
supposed to be a dry bole so far as oil
ts concerned. How much more on will
be taken trom the well ls not known but
the amount secured to the present date
ls about ten barrels.
The result of the taking of this on
from the first hole drilled, the finding
of oU on the Atkinson farm, and uf the
great flow of salt water from a well
drilled one mile north of theee wells reported above leads oil experts to the
conclusion that there Is an oil pool -ery
close at hand and may be If present
wells were drilled deeper ln the Berea

MAY OSE LIGNITE IF
EXPERIMENTS BEING
MADE ARE SUCCESSFUL
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, May 27.—Lignite or
"brown" coal of Texas, North Dakota
and other western states, probably will
be used extensively as fuel of experiments soon to be made by the bureau
of mines ln an effort to drive off the
moisture which makes It unserviceable,
prove successful. Initial experiments
will be conducted at New Salem, North
Dakota and will begin at once. Congress haa appropriated $100,000 for the
work.
Lignites constitute one third of the
fuel resources of the United States, but
have been little used, because of the
great amount of moisture ln them,
their tendency to disintegrate when
dry and their liability to spontaneous
combustion. States with lignite de-
poslte have been getting their coal
from middle west states, necessitating
an average freight haul of one thousand miles. Reduction of lignite to a
serviceable fuel woul dend such lengthy coal shipments.
Bureau of mines experts believe it
not only will be possible to carbonize
the lignite Into a superior brand of fuel
but think lt possible to make valuable
by products such as gas, oU and tars.

PRICES OF SUGAR ARE
UNCERTAIN BUT WILL
PBBBABLT BE LOWER
That sugar ls growing more plentiful
there ls no question and prices are lower and destined to lower ln the near
future. A retail grocer who buys ln
small lost, said today. "I have bought
sugar the past Fix weeks ln lost of
from 100 to 600 pounds, and have not
paid the same price for any two shipments of sugar the price range being
from 21 cents to 10 cents. This I have
retailed at from tt to 22 cents. The
last Invoice cost me 22 centa Sugar is
more plentiful."
From Youngstown comes the report
that last week 1,000,000 pounds of sugar
was sold ln that city by retail grocers or
about seven pounds of sugar for each
Inhabitant. Much of this went to families in sufficient quantities for a supply for a year for all purposes. From
the beet sugar refinery at Flndlay comes
tbe statement that entire crop of laat
seasons beets remains on hands and haa
not been placed on thla market. According to the market report from New
York. Cuban sugar made a drop of 55

(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, May 27.—Th* Republican peace resolution was vetoed
today by President Wilson.
Such a method of making peace
with Oermany, the President said,
"would place an lneffaclable stain upon the gallantry and honor of the United States".
Without announcing his Intention

President declared that the treaty embodied the important things omitted by

declared  ln   effect  that  lt  wished  "to

The President added that the peace
resolution omitted mention of many
Important objects for the vindication
of which the United States entered the
war.
"Such a peace with Oermany*-', tho
message continued, "a peace ln which
none of the essential Interests which

SEVENTY-FOURTH BANK OF JAPAN,
HEAVILY INTERESTED IN SILKS,
COTTON AND CLOTH, SUSPENDS
(By Asaoclated Press)
TOKIO, May 25.—The suspension
yesterday of the Seventy Fourth bank
of Yokohama in which Sobel Mogl
was the principal shareholder, wa* followed today by the suspension of the
Yokohama Savings Bank ot which M.
Mogl ls president. The Seventy
Fourth bank was heavily Interested ln
transactions ln silk, cotton yarn and
cotton cloth. The recent slump ln
silk caused heavy demands upon the
bank by silk speculators, who were
dependent upon the bank tor support,
and who had been obliged to pay additional margins. The bank of Japan
which had advanced 20,000,000 yen to
the Seventy Fourth bank, ceased to
advance funds to* the institution, believing that the time for adjustment
had arrived. The directors, it ls said,
expect to settle by offering their personal property and securing the assistance ot other institution*.
The Soda bank, on which a sympathetic run was started* after the closing of the Seventy Fourth bank, received assistance from the Bank of
Japan and did not have to suspend
payment.
The    suspension   of   the   Seventy,
Fourth bank was regarded aa important because it was connected with
operations in ailk, Japan'* chief export to America. The official statement of the suapenslon announced
that the hank had been closed for
only three weeks, to permit of the
examination and/"Uustment of Its affairs. The suspension Immediately
forced the .©closing of the silk exchange, and the newspapers attributed
the ensuing slump ln the Tokio and
Oshka stock markets, where the principal share* fell from 10 to 30 yen,
to the suspension of the Mogl Institution and reported liquidation ln
America.
The conservative English language
newspaper, the Herald of Asia, ln discussing the economic situation says
that apparently unlimited credit had
been extended by the banks, resulting
ln wild cat speculation and the inordinate extension of enterprises.
It points out .that the issue of note*
by the Bank of Japan for the flrst four
months ot 1920 were the highest in its
history.
The loan* at times, lt aaya, totalled
700,000,000 yen, while the notes Issued exceeded 1,300,000,000 yen. or
nearly live time* the pre-war volume.
