Put Stamp of DiSap-
proval on Plan.
SOME UNCERTAINTY
AS TO THE METHODS
Impossible TO Forecast Probable
Action of Board, Says Ad-
miral Stockton.

Attorney General Wickersham has not
put the stamp of disapprOvaI on tho
tentative plan Of the trustees Of George
Washington University TO Issue bonds
70 the amount Of 100000
This was learned today not only at
the Department of Justice. but also at
the executive offices of the university.
Members Of the board Of trustees ad-
mitted today that there was consider
able uncertainty as 70 the method by
which the financial difficulties Of the
university would be solved. but they
emphaticalIy declared that the posi-
bility Of the abandonment OF the bond
ing scheme would not be due 70 inter
ference on the part Of the Attorney Cen
etral.
1T is not customary for the Attorney
General or the Department Of Justice
10 render opinions or issue orders on
suppositious cases. said Admiral
stockton today. The board Of trus-
tees did not submit the bonding scheme
10 the Department Of Justice, and the
Attorney General positively has not
written 10 the officials Of the uniyer-
sity fOrbidding the bond issue"
Impossible to Forecast
Admiral stockton said this afternoon
IL was impossible to forecast the prob
able action Of the board OF trustees
so far as I know" he said, The
board OF trustees has Tot come to an
a agreement as TO the financial plan
Nothing is definitely decided so far as
l know, and viii not be until the trus-
tees get together late today
vt the Department OF Justice II was
declared that Attorney General Wick
ersham had not communicated with the
university regarding the proposed bond
issue. Il was stated that the only letter
or communication Of any kind dealing
with George Washington University
which had been drafted By Mr. Wicker
shaw was his report written IN response
20 the resolution Of the House. which
report was published in the Congress
sional Record several weeks ago.
Members Hopeful
Members Of the board OF trustees are
hopeful that az the meeting this after
noon one or more friends Of the insti-
tuition wilt come forward with a PROPOSE
Iion TO relieve bhe present financial
stringency. at least, 20 the extent Of
making unnecessary thu sacrifice vol
unJeeTcd by the teachers
II is admitted. however. that up TO
da:e the interest shown by the public ia
the somewhat critical affairs Of the
university has been disappointing.
For this reason IL is learned that the
board OF trustees Will enCcaTOr 10 agree
upon a plan which VIII raise funds suf-
nCicur 70 meet immediate needs without
regard 70 private subscriptions.

NEW YORK HAS SANE FOURTH
PROBLEM, TOO.

Mayor GaypoE who has given Tam
many Hall one of the biggest surprises

form. is Just now up to his ears in a
safe and sane Fourth of July squabble.
Indeed, his difficulties make our little
money-raising experience look as easy

MUDDY TRACK AND DISMAL
DAY AT kUPFRlAN'S PARK
the boys In their thin silk jackets
were soaked through.
MONDAY A BIG DAY.

Arrangements are now under way
for the biggest day Of the meeting
Monday. This will be the last ladies'
day Of the meeting and in special
honor to them the management Will
put on seven great races instead o.
the usual six. Each event will bring
out the class of horses stabbed at the
park and inasmuch as there are
plenty of horses here each event will
probably be filed to the limit
Everything in the power of the as
socdation will be done to make Mon
day memorable day for racing en-
thusiasts and one that Pensacola will
not soon forget.
The feature for today is the hurdle
race over a mile and a furlong course.
Six crack jumpers are entered. all
EVENLY balanced in weights. Octopus
has been asked to carry top weight of
157 pounds but this good hurdle horse
has shown so much class al this meet
ing both over the jumps and on the
fiat that many think he Is the class Of
the race and holds the field safe. How
ever, the other five are good artists
and a bang-up raca should result.
While betting was very light on &C.
count Of the small crowd present, the
day was somewhat in favor OF the
books for most Of the heavily backed
choices went down to defeat, but only
one real long shot managed to slip
in. How About You. running in best
form, won all the way in the second
race at the nice odds Of to 1. but
there were few who cared to take a
chance ON him, nearly all the play
being ON Occidental and Ossian, both
