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.

AL- 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 sand as they were only touched ln the HJROLO DAVIS *_——_—_———. . i Faaerel Hal* For La-tented Dead At Twe O'clock Today.

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.

(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".

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.

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.

AL- 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 sand as they were only touched ln the HJROLO DAVIS *_——_—_———. . i Faaerel Hal* For La-tented Dead At Twe O'clock Today.

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.

(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 regarding the treaty of Versailles, the President declared that the treaty embodied the important things omitted by the resolution, and said that by rejecting the treaty, the United States had declared ln effect that lt wished "to draw apart and pursue object* and Interests of our own". The President added that the peace resolution omitted mention of many Important objects for the vindication of which the United States entered the war.

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.
