DECLARES WAR
TALK IS SILLY
Major General Leonard Wood Says
He Had No Fear of Such a Con-
tingency.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-Major
General Leonard Wood, in an address
Tuesday night at the banquet of
Burnside Post G. A. R., characterized
the war scare talk as "silly," declar-
ing that he neither saw any prospect
of war nor had any fear of such a
contingency, but simply had advo-
Gated careful reorganization of the
country's 'undeveloped military re-
sources"
"All this silly talk" said Gen.
Wood, "may be answered by one
word of three letters, which | shall
not offend you to repeat.
"The work of the army at present
is to do the best it can in developing
the country's military resources and
to be of assistance in organizing the
militia. and it was in view of extend
ing that work that we have asked foI
500 to 700 additional officers.
"When the officers who will have
been with the militia four years come
back to us we shall receive the full
benefit of the civilians viewpoint
something which we, like the men of
any other profession, are not always
likely to see."

District Attorney for Eastern Ken
lucky Taken from Senate.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-The
President Wednesday withdrew the
nomination he recently sent to the
senate, appointing Jas. N. Sharp as
district attorney for the Eastern dis
trict of Kentucky. No reason is
given at the White House for the
withdrawal of Sharp's name.

have advocated the withdrawal of
the Sharp nomination, following the

known that the Kentucky senator

Mr.. Sharp in the first instance, and
that it was made principally upon the
instance of Representative Edwards
of Kentucky.
Senator Bradley. it is understood,
has not presented the President with
the name of his choice for the dis
trict attorneyship of the Eastern
Kentucky district.
President Taft has decided to APP
point H. Clay Howard, of Paris. KY,

CIRCUMSTANCE
President Taft Holds That Intoxica-
ton at the Time of Committing
Murder Should Be Taken Into Con-
sideration.

WASHINGTON, Dec 22.-In COM
muting to life Imprisonment the SEN
tence Of death passed upon John
Wynne, at Honolulu, President Taft
takes the view that intoxication at
the time of committing murder may
be urged in extenuation of the degree
of the crime.
Wynne, who was an oiler on the
steamer Rosecrans, was convicted of
the murder of man named McKin-
non, the third engineer Of the vessel,
in Honolulu harbor.
In passing upon the case President
Taft indorsed the papers in part, as
follows:
eff Wynne was sober and in his
right mind there was ample time and
opportunity for him to form pre-
meditated purpose to kill McKinnon
and to execute it. and the elements
of murder in the first degree would
all be present and require the YER
diet given.
''But there is evidence that Wynne
had been drinking all day, and that
when he came aboard his gait was
unsteady and he was in a drunken
condition.
cit is sufficient in my judgment tc
raise reasonable doubt whether his
mind was in condition capable OF

Strike. Between 1900 and 1000
Strikers Return to Work.

CHICAGO, Dec. 22.-Though the
size of the garment workers strike
was lessened Tuesday, violence in
creased. There was one -blooded
assassination AMI a hold-up. Both
were accredited to the strikers by the
police.
A conservative estimate of the
number of strikers who returned to
work as individuals was between
1900 and 1000.
John Donnelly, a driver for non

at Milton and West Chicago avenues
Tuesday morning, and while the po-
lice were combing the neighborhood
for suspects Tuesday night Robert
Edelson, salesman and collector for
Wholesale grocery house, was held
up at that identical spot and shot
through the left arm.
AT first the police believed Donnelly
had been shot from both sides of the
street, but careful examination
showed that all of the bullets came
from the west side of Milton avenue.
That two men participated is indi-

the coroner. The bout, which ended
fatally, was between Imhof, who is

when both boys were apparently on

straight-arm blow on the jaw. Imhof
fell like log and his head struck
the floor. He was carried from the
ring and after attempts to revive him
were made he was hurried to a hos

A host of young fighters, with their
