beaten and robbed by An unidentified
hIghwayman Wednesday night while
standing on the steps Of the LenOX
apartments, and who Is suffering greatly
from wounds and shock, today told the
police she believed her assailant was a
white man. Working on this theory the
police have completely changed the tao

detectives are searching the city for a

cription furnished by Mrs. Hickman.

BREWERS SPEECH
Anglers FRIENDS
OF THE PRESIDENT
Believed Some Public
Official Will Answer
in Near Future.

Down under the surface of placidity,
which an attitude Of dignihed silence
has preserved. there is bitter resent
ment In high Administration circles be-
cause Of the criticisms IoVeIed against
President Roosevelt by Supreme JUS
tice Brewer.
tt-ts known that some OF the close
friends and advisers Of the President,
who are fully in sympathy with his
policies, are chafng under the attack
from the distinguished jurist, and would
Ike nothing better than permission to
act as mOuthpiece for expression Of the
Administrations views. Some Of these
expressed very frank opinions on the
subject today, and the impression be-
came current that the Cabinet meeting
would probably talk of the matter.
Out Of this has grown the report that
somebody in position to speak with au-
thority may before long, in a public
address, discuss the Brewer speech and
undertake to give the Admiistration's
views OF the situation. II Is recoe-
nzed that a joint debate betyyeen tbs
judicial and the executive departments
Of the Government would be a most un-
precedented affairAand its effects might
be far-reaching.
Friends Not Alarmed.
One Administration official remarked
today that he didn't think the F.resi-
dents policies would lose much OF
strength with the country because OF
attacks from the judicial quarter.
II means that the war is on" said
q nigh official 1T viii be plain enough
before many days. II doesn't need a
gift of prophecy to see that Hughes is
gong TO be the standard-bearer Of the
Roosevelt opposition, or that the fight
Is to be a bitter one. with the purpose
OF dislodging the President from his
position as spokesman Of the country's
public opinion"
Efforts to ascertain the exact status
Cf the executive order about interfer-
ence Of Federal employees in Presidential
politics, developed today that there is
a pre1ty hazy notion of what has heen
done Ii was reported that the Cabinet
officers would today send out orders to
their subordinates TO keep out OF Presi-
Dental politics, and especially not TO
take part as thiTd-term advocates in
amy conventions One Cabinet officer
said when asked about It that he
guessed the newspaper publications
about the matter had served every pur-
pose, and that il would hot be neces-
sary to make q formal order. Another
said he had never heard Of such a thing
and didn't expect he would,
Apparently, the whole matter has been
greatly exaggerated, and IN question
hostile 10 the Administration il is sug-
gested that the case illustrates the
game of ''hide and seek which Justice
Brewer deprecated.

AN ANONYMOUS LETTER
Which Alleges to Give Clues to Re-

Some time ago two horses We're stolen
from parties in Chelsea and Whitefeld.
A thorough investigator was made but
no clue as to the guilty parties was
found. Yesterday. however, MIR. Swift
from whom one Of the horses was TAX
en- received an unsigned letter with in
struCtions and small chart showing
where the horses were found. The let
ter stated that the parties who stole
the horses had come to an untimcly end.
That part Of the story was evidently
false from the fact that if it was not
the guilty ones who wrote the letter
they would have signed their names.
The Instructions in the letter were to

where the horses were said to be. Yes

Mr. Swift set out to find the pasture
and see If the letter stated the truth.
