Walsh and C. H. Ingersoll Still Possible Nominees. Chicago, July 12.—Amalgamation of the Labor party of the United States and the Committee of 48 in a new political movement with a single party qame, one platform, and one presidential ticket, were included in the recommendations submitted to the Labor and Forty-eight conventions when they reconvened today. Senator Robert L. LaFollette of Wisconsin remained the most talked of candidate in the presidential race. The terms of the pro- posed combine are understood by the party leaders to meet his views as expressed last week to Amos Pinchot and George L. Rec- ord, leading Forty-eighters, who called on the senator to ask if he would accept the nomination should it be tendered him. Conference committees appointed yesterday by the Labor convention and Saturday by the Forty-eighters smoothed out objection to amalgama- t.on in a protracted session last night and adopted a series of recom- mendations to be offered to the two convention today. Resides urging the cobmiuing pt forces under a com- mon standard with a common natu.o the. also proposed appointment of special subcommittees to draft the machinery under which the combine will work and to prepare u point plat- form. Conventions to Act Separately. The recommendationss, it approved today, as the leaders confidently ex- pect, mean that the two conventions will preserve their separate identities and continue to function in separate sessions, with sub-comm#ttees report- ing identical measures to each for discussion and action. What reception the amalgamation proposal will receive from other lib- eial and radical groups now meeting here only time can show. The sin- gle tax party, also in national con- vention assembled, is divided, accord- ing to expressions of various leaders, on the availability of Senator La Fol- lette as presidential nominee. One group of single taxers has announced that it will bolt the proposed combine rather than stand for La Follette, while another faction has declared it will accept any presidential nominee so long as a single tax plank is in- corporated In the platform. La Follette—If He Wants It. If Senator La Follette wants the third party nomination he can have it, both Forty-eighters and Laborites agree. He is already the overwhelm- ing choice of the Forty-eighters, a mall referendum has shown. While other candidates will be placed in nomination in the labor convention and probably in the Forty-eight meet- ing, too, the Senator's friends aay both groups are ready to nominate bim. Frank P. Walsh, Kansas City, Charles H. Ingersoll, manufacturer, and Henry Ford have been mentioned for the nomination, but there Is no rpparent concerted action to further the prospects of any one of them. Walsh is also being discussed for vice president. Yesterday was given over to the opening session of the labor conven- t/on with delegates from sixty trade union groups and other organizations represented. The Forty-eightera and single taxers, whose convention opened Saturday, had recessed for the day and practically their entire membership attended the labor con- vention, many participating as active delegates, Duncan's Dual Capacity. Prominent among those assuming a dual delegate roll wan James Dun- can, one of the leaders of the general strike in Seattle last year. Duncan or Saturday was elected chairman of the Washington delegation to the con- vention of the committee of Forty- eight and yesterday was chosen vice chairman of Labor convention.

During ' the Long wait for confer- ence reports, Swinburne Hale of New Yc k, telling of deportation proceed- ings of the federal government, at- tacked Attorney General Palmer and won applause. Hale said that Parley P. Christensen, permanent chairman of the convention, was "one of the first defenders of the I. W. W." The relegates cheered until Chairman Christensen was forced to acknowl- edge by bowing. "The Department of Labor has since become emancipated," Hale said, dealing with Palmer, "by the courage of Louis Post." Hale asserted that Attorney Gen- eral Palmer "has the highest Ideals and the lowest practices ot any offi- cial ii our history."

Empress Eugenie seemed conscious i 'hat death was approaching and thqse ' who stood by the bedside say she ap- , peared glad to die in Spain, her native • country. J Some time ago Eugenie lost the 1 sight of one of her eyes and was fear- ( lul of becoming totally blind.

Her wish was gratified and last j'April Eugenie again saw the beauties if Spain— and especially of Anda- lusia—where she was born. Despite her 94 years she displayed notable vitality and expressed warm- hearted gratitude over the way in which she was received by the people of Spain.

Stephens, who boasted the title "Daredevil," has a wife and 11 chil- dren in Bristol, where he was a bar- bet. He served three years in France with the British army. He had planned to make a lecture tour of England If his trip was successful. Bobby Leach, who went over the Horseshoe Falls in 1911, told Steph- ens before he started that his trip would be a failure. Leach predicted the barrel would not withstand the drop of 158 feet, but Stephens refused to be disuaded from the venture. Leach was among the spectators who watched the start of Stephens' fatal trip. Few knew Stephens was to make the trip and when the barrel was towed out Into the river from the Canadian side two miles above the falls, there were only a dozen on hand to watch, it was 8:10 o'clock yesterday morning when Stephens was cast adrift. Early sighteera on Goat Island saw the barrel bobbing up and down in the tumbling reaches oi the upper rapids, but none knew that It carried a man about to defy the cataract. Moving Pictures Taken. Members of Stephens's party fol- Jewed the cask down stream In auto- mobiles. In one of the cars a mov- ing-picture operator filmed the prog- ress of the barrel. As the barrel drew near the brink of the falls it seemed to stand on end, hesitate a second or two and then slide gracefully over the slope, head foremost and at a slight angle. Its gleaming black and white stripes could be seen until It had fallen about half way down the face of the cataract. Then it was lost to view in the misty spray.

Pros- Canadian Spa, Belgium, Sunday (By the As- sociated Press.) — If the Poles con- seut to retire within the natural frontiers of Poland, the Allies will gt.e tniem all po.-vsible assistance in the event of their being attacked by the Bolsheviki. This announcement was made in Spa today. The Allies have sent a proposal to tho Russian soviet government for an armistice with Poland on condition 1 that the_Poles retire within their nat- ural Polish frontiers. It is set forth that the armistice will bb followed by a" conference of representatives ot all the countries on the Russian bor- der and that if the Bolshevik! attack tho Poles within these frontiers the Allies will go to the aid of Poland Poles Dissatisfied. Spa, July 12.—The Polish delega- tion at the conference here is under- stood to be very much dissatisfied with the terms of the Allied note to the Russian soviet government, pro- posing an armistice between the Bol- shevist anu Polish armies. They feel, however, that they will be obliged to accept it. , New York Jews Slain. Warsaw, Sunday, July 11.—Dr. Is- rael Friedlander, professor of BiblicaL littrature at the Jewish Theogolicali Seminary in New York, and Bernard cantor, also of New York, have been. identified as the men killed, on July 7, near Yormolince, in the Ukraine, by three men wearing Bolshevist uni- form, according to information re- ceived today at the Warsaw head- qua* ters of the American joint dis- tribution committee, to which both the victims were attached. Dr. Friedlander and Dr. Cantor had distributed more than a million marks in the prosecution of their re- lief work and were preparing to leave the region in the Ukraine near, which General Budenny was operat- ing -witji his Bolshevist cavalry. Coal Delays Spa Conference. Spa, Belgium, July 12. (By the As-; soc'uted Press.)—The German-Allied^ conference was brought to a tempo- rary halt this morning by the coal: question. The Allied premiers, who mot at 10:20 o'clock to discuss the Germany reparations proposition and' the question of priority in coal deliv- eries from Germany, were unable to finish their work in time for the gen- eral conference to sit at 11 u J e'clock, the hour previously fixed. Chancellor Fehrenbach and his colleagues, who had arrived with a (numerous staL', were informed in the ante-room by the secretary of the conference that the full meeting had beep postponed until afternoon. The Allied ministers, it appears, are not very favorably impressed by the German reparations plan. The prevailing view, the correspondent was Informed, was that the plan was somewhat Indefinite on the essential financial points. .It is understood that the German delegates have in reserve another pian, or -amendment, of much greater i 49 minutes and i Importance than the plan submitted yesterday. The plan now before tne conference is considered a substitute i. i this original plan, which the Ger- mans are Withholding, being unwill- ing to diseio.se the original proposi- tion because they were not given sat- isfaction on the coal question.

With Some Other—Frank P. Walsh and C. H. Ingersoll Still Possible Nominees.

Chicago, July 12.—Amalgamation of the Labor party of the United States and the Committee of 48 in a new political movement with a single party qame, one platform, and one presidential ticket, were included in the recommendations submitted to the Labor and Forty-eight conventions when they reconvened today.

Senator Robert L. LaFollette of Wisconsin remained the most talked of candidate in the presidential race. The terms of the pro­posed combine are understood by the party leaders to meet his views as expressed last week to Amos Pinchot and George L. Rec­ord, leading Forty-eighters, who called on the senator to ask if he would accept the nomination should it be tendered him.

Conference committees appointed yesterday by the Labor convention and Saturday by the Forty-eighters smoothed out objection to amalgama-t.on in a protracted session last night and adopted a series of recom­mendations to be offered to the two convention today. Resides urging the cobmiuing pt forces under a com­mon standard with a common na tu .o the. also proposed appointment of special subcommittees to draft the machinery under which the combine will work and to prepare u point plat­form.

Conventions to Act Separately. The recommendationss, it approved

today, as the leaders confidently ex­pect, mean that the two conventions will preserve their separate identities and continue to function in separate sessions, with sub-comm#ttees report­ing identical measures to each for discussion and action.

What reception the amalgamation proposal will receive from other lib-eial and radical groups now meeting here only t ime can show. The sin­gle tax party, also in national con­vention assembled, is divided, accord­ing to expressions of various leaders, on the availability of Senator La Fol­lette as presidential nominee. One group of single taxers has announced that it will bolt the proposed combine rather than stand for La Follette, while another faction has declared it will accept any presidential nominee so long as a single tax plank is in­corporated In the platform.

La Follette—If He Wants It. If Senator La Follette wants the

third party nomination he can have it, both Forty-eighters and Laborites agree. He is already the overwhelm­ing choice of the Forty-eighters, a mall referendum has shown. While other candidates will be placed in nomination in the labor convention and probably in the Forty-eight meet­ing, too, the Senator 's friends aay both groups are ready to nominate bim.

Frank P. Walsh, Kansas City, Charles H. Ingersoll, manufacturer, and Henry Ford have been mentioned for the nomination, but there Is no rpparent concerted action to further the prospects of any one of them. Walsh is also being discussed for vice president.

Yesterday was given over to the opening session of the labor conven­t/on with delegates from sixty t rade union groups and other organizations represented. The Forty-eightera and single taxers , whose convention opened Saturday, had recessed for the day and practically their entire membership a t tended the labor con­vention, many participating as active delegates,

Prominent among those assuming a dual delegate roll wan James Dun­can, one of the leaders of the general strike in Seattle last year. Duncan or Saturday was elected chairman of the Washington delegation to the con­vention of the committee of Forty-eight and yesterday was chosen vice chairman of Labor convention.

"The Department of Labor has since become emancipated," Hale said, dealing with Palmer, "by the courage of Louis Post."

Hale asserted that Attorney Gen­era l Palmer "has the highest Ideals and the lowest practices ot any offi­cial ii our history."

radian side, but Stephens's body has not been recovered. Rivermen say that it may not come to the surface for a week or ten days.

Stephens, who boasted the title "Daredevil," has a wife and 11 chil­dren in Bristol, where he was a bar-bet. He served three years in France with the British army. He had planned to make a lecture tour of England If his tr ip was successful.

Bobby Leach, who went over the Horseshoe Falls in 1911, told Steph­ens before he started that his trip would be a failure. Leach predicted the barrel would not withstand the drop of 158 feet, but Stephens refused to be disuaded from the venture. Leach was among the spectators who watched the s tar t of Stephens ' fatal tr ip.

Few knew Stephens was to make the trip and when the barrel was towed out Into the river from the Canadian side two miles above the falls, there were only a dozen on hand to watch, i t was 8:10 o'clock yesterday morning when Stephens was cast adrift. Early sighteera on Goat Island saw the barrel bobbing up and down in the tumbling reaches oi the upper rapids, but none knew that It carried a man about to defy the cataract.

Moving Pictures Taken. Members of Stephens's party fol-

Jewed the cask down stream In auto­mobiles. In one of the cars a mov­ing-picture opera tor filmed the prog­ress of the barrel.

As the barrel drew near the brink of the falls it seemed to stand on end, hesitate a second or two and then slide gracefully over the slope, head foremost and at a slight angle. I ts gleaming black and white str ipes could be seen until It had fallen about half way down the face of the cataract. Then it was lost to view in the misty spray.
