Governor Gets Proposed Charter
Amendment and Says He'll Not Hold
Up Purely Local Treasure.

Governor Warner was in the city
for few minutes Friday evening,
coming in from his home in Farming
ton, to receive from City Clerk
Nichols the proposed municipal own
ership charter amendments, which un-'
der the law must be submitted to him.
Speaking OF the municipal owner
ship amendment. the governor said:
Within tae past few months have
been called upon to act on several
such matters, and in each case, un-
less there is some flaw In the legality
of the proceedings, | have Endorsed
the measures. | am guided In these
matters by the advise OF the attorney
generals Office. They are purely
legal matters. and / think the cities
interested should have the say as TO
what they want"
Relative TO the two civil service
amendments. both which may be sub
mitted to the governor, the latter
said:
Il do not think that the measure
which includes laborers I'm its scope
will stand the fire from the state legal
department, but other than this, it,
too, Is a strictly local matter and not
for my interference. However, / would
not care to express final opinion on
any OF these matters until have gone

ZANCIGS OFFER TO SUBMIT
TO TEST OF THOUGHT POWER

The much-discussed subject Of
thought transference is exciting UNI
usual interest in Detroit at present.
owing to the remarkable feats in this
line performed in the Miles theater
by Mr.. and Mrs. Zancig. To prove
that there Is no trickery in their ex-
hibition, the Zancigs have offered to
subject themselves to any test at the
hands of competent persons. and
stand ready to accept any challenge,
FORGETTING a substantial sum of money
to charity In the event of failure.
A writer In an eastern daily con-
tends that Mr. Zancig, who moves
about among the audience selecting
all kinds of articles to be named and
described by his wife on the stage,
signals to her by movements of his
body and hands and by means of the
words he from time to time addresses
to his wife and TO the members of the
audience. He points out that this sort
OF turn" has been seen in years gone
by. though not in such skillful form
as given by the Zancigs
But some of the feats performed by
the Zancigs are not explainable on
this theory. In a recent test Mrs.
Zancig was put in one room and her
husband In another. Mr.. Zancig com
mitted to memory a sentence from a
book selected BY third party and
Mrs. Zancig wrote out the sentence
correctly and handed II to the third
party without a word having passing
between her and her husband.

EXPLAINS POSITION ON
SENATORIAL QUESTION
Gov. Harmon Believes Forcing of II
Into Campaign Might Defeat
Democratic Party.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 2S.-Unless
Gov. Harmon changes his mind be-
tween now and June 81, he and those
he can control will go to the Demo
cratic state convention opposed to en-
dorsing candidate for United States
senator in the convention.
William jennings Bryan's demand
on Harmon. through the Commoner
that he come out In the open and ad-
vocate the nomination of senatorial
candidate by the state convention, is
considered hard jolt to Harmon, be-
cause 1t indicates Bryan's hostility to
Ohio's governor as presidential pos
sibility.
Gov. Harmon does not believe II
good politics to nominate senatorial
candidate in the state convention. He
believes the nomination of anyone
candidate will kin of host of other
aspirants and an incentive to work
for the success of the ticket this fall.
He believes the good of the party de-
mands that the senatorial proposition
be left until the state and legislature
has been carried; the forcing of the
senatorial issue into the campaign
might cause the loss of both the state
ticket and the legislature.
Harmon argued this proposition
with Ex-Mayor Tom Johnson of Cleve-
land, when he visited the latter city
several weeks ago. Johnson's posi-
ton is identical with Bryan's; and
some are suspecting that Johnson
may have persuaded Bryan to demand
of Harmon that he advocate the NOM
ination of the senatorial candidate in
the convention. On the other hand
Harmon has taken the position that II

ate the senatorial candidate 1t may do
