About 70 head of steers will be sac- rificed to the Indians’ appetites. The delegates themselves undertook to prepare the meat today. Using meth- ods similar to a tug-of-war, they jerk- | ed the meat out long and thin, and | hung it out to dry on long, sun-ex- posed lines. The convention is largely of a social nature. The election of officers and adoption of resolutions constitute ! about the only business of the session. The pature of the resolutions that will be introduced had not been re- vealed yesterday. ETHREATS TO KIDNAP | ROYALTY UNHEEDED King George and Duchess of York Not Worried Over Letters. Joker or Lunatic Blamed. | By the Associated Press | LONDON, June 8.—No alarm is felt lover the threats contained in letters recently received at Buckingham Pal- ace and at the residence of the Earl | of Strathmore to kidnap, respectively, | King George and the Duchess of York {and the little Princess Elizabeth, her daughter. Royal personages are so well guard- »d that it would hardly be possible to sarry out such threats, even if they intended. The letter received at the pal- {ace some days ago. That sent to the Duchess of York said an attempt | would be made to kidnap her when she proceeds to Sandwich shortly vith the little granddaughter of the King. The threats are considered to be at- | tempts at a joke or the outcropping {of some mentally unbalanced person who read the confession of the youth recently arraigned and now under re- mand_for sending letters threatening to kidnap the 10-vear-old Marquis of Townshend and the children of other prominent personages.

SAYSLLOYD GEORGE WILL JOIN LABOR Liberal Declares in Letter That Former Premier Of- fered Party Fund. By the Associated Press. LONDON, June 8.—The Westmin- ster Gazette reproduces a letter con- tributed to the Wiltshire Times by Harcourt Johnstone, former member of Parliament, accuging David Lioyd George of having on May 7 consulted three of the principal leaders of the Labor party (unnamed), whom he in- formed that, although he was com- pelied at the moment to adopt a neutral attitude, he was eager and willing to attack the government. In the course of the controversy raging between Lloyd George and Lord Oxford and Asquith, which has | threatened the disruption of the Liberal party, Mr. Lloyd George has | been charged not only with refusing to participate in the councils of his party but with a desire to join with | the Laborites. He has denfed any in- tention to forsake his own party or to become affillated in any way with the Labor party. ® “Offered Political Fund.” . Harcourt Johnstone': letter pro- ceeds: “Neither did Mr. Lloyd George ymit to inform these gentlemen that he had at his command an enormous political fund, which could be of the greatest service to the Labor party when the strike had depleted the coffers of the trade unions.” Mr. Johnstone declares that the conference broke up with the promise of the Labor leaders to consult their supporters, and the same night Mr. Lloyd George refused to allow Sir John Simon’'s speech maintaining the fllegality of the strike to be broad- cast to the nation with the stamp of his assent or approval. Mr. Johnstone, who i Liberal, advances the statement proving the accusations of Willlam R. Pringe, also a former Liberal member of Parliament, that Mr. Lloyd George was trying to join the Labor party. The Westminster Gazette contends that the indictment calls for a reply.
