MISS SEARS MISTAKEN
FOR A STUNNING MAI
Boston Girl Startles BurIingame
Set With Masculine Garb

Miss Eleanor Sears of Boston, who is
the guest of the Francis ]. Carolans at
Burlingame, caused the Burlngame set
TO gasp and take notice yesterday af-
ternoon when she dashed across FL
Palomar field on the c. W. Clark place
on her polo pony, just before game was
called in the match for the ladies' cup.
At first glance she appeared to be
the most stunning man on the field. A
second glance established her identity.
She wore a jaunty panama hat with
blue and white band, negligee shirt
red four-in-hanj tie and long brown
coat which dropped down over riding
breeches and boots.
After a turn across the field, Miss
Sears handed her pony to a groom, and
seated herself with friends in the
grandstand. AS the match progressed,
Walter Hobart. at whose now disrupted
home at San Mateo Miss Sears was a
guest last polo season. joined her. and
the two strolled to the end of the
grandstand, where the polo ponies
were being groomed. Much to the de-
light of Miss Sears, Hobart finally sue
ceeded in conquering a frsctious pony
which all but threw him two or three
times.

TAFT A WEAklING.
AYERS CH|CAGOAN
E. S. Conway, Head of Chamber
of Commerce, Says President
Is Tool of Roosevelt
[ Special Dispatch to The Call |


/ MONTGOMERY, Ala, March 1.-E. S.
Conway of Chicago. piano manufac-
turer and chairman of the Chicago
chamber of commerce, dubs Taft a
weakling and an unsafe man and be-
lieves that he was put forward by
Roosevelt because he is a weakIing and
with view on the part of Roosevelt
of making it easy for him (Roosevelt)
to defeat Taft at the end of the lat
ter's first term. Conway hopes for a
democratic congress to prevent Taft
doing any more foolish things to hurt
the country.
In Conway's opinion, the president
has made series of blunders, not the
least of which was declaring the new
tariff bill to be a great success The
president has no friends in the middle
west he says, the best man of the party
and all parties having become afraid of
him.
Conway fays the corporation act 1t
is move, he thinks. to centralize the
control of the corporations, taking it
from the state, which is a dangerous
thing. 1t puts the little corporations
at the mercy of the larger, betrays
facts that will injure business, and
tends to a condition that can be of no
help in the traffic and manufacturing
industries of the country

Opposed Pinchot's Purpose

The secretary said he urged Pinchot
not to carry out his purpose to
blanket" a message from the presi-
dent generating Ballinger by send
ing in a letter to Senator Dolliver.
But" persisted counsel for Pin
chot, IF Pinchot was only to be per-
mitted to write about departmental
matters, how could you have thought
this letter would blanket the presi-
dents message?"
Il don't know. That was Pinchot's
idea" replied Wilson.
Pinchot denied that he had been
embittered by a dismissal which he
considered unjustifed. He denied also
that there was a specific movement to
discredit Ballinger. He added, how
ever. that he and former Secretary
Garfield, CLAWS and others were con-
cerned in a movement for the conser-
walton of natural resources, and that
they regarded Ballinger as one of the
greatest enemies of that movement.

Wilson Denies Statement

Secretary Wilson Immediately took
the stand, and asserted that while he
had given Pinchot permission to write
to Senator Dolliver concerning de
partmental affairs" he never did and
never would have given him permission
TO write a letter criticising the presi-
dent of the United States
Under cross examination. almost
wholly by the democratic members of
the committee, Secretary Wilson was
uncertain as to just what passed be-
tween himself and the forester and be-
came somewhat mixed as to just what
letters the committeeman referred to in
their rapid fire of questions. The sec
retary repeatedly said he never saw or
heard of the letter Pinchot wrote until
1T was read in the senate.
Pinchot declared that he and Secre-
tary Wilson went so far as to discuss
the executive order issued by President
Taft forbidding subordinates of the
various departments to give informa
tion to congress, and added that the
secretary said:
You and l will have no trouble
about that order"
Admitting that his memory failed
him as to certain points, Secretary
Wilson always came back to the
statement that he never under any
circumstances would have given
Pinchot permission to write the letter
that caused his retirement from the
service

Leave Charges Unanswered

While the union officials were busy
yesterday with the preparation of all
the evidencein support of their charges
for submission to Washington, the hos
pital authorities made no answer to
the accusation, declaring that the
ma t efsffad not Seen submitted to them
"officially.'' The statements made by
Harry c. Dell. a nurse, tending to sup
port the charge that Doctor Moore had
beaten Brezzinio while the latter lay
on his death bed, stood unchallenged,
except for the general denial previously
issued by Doctor Gassaway. and his as
sertion that the attendant was the one
who instigated the present trouble.
IF we can not secure an investiga-
ton of conditions at the marine hospi-
tai through appeals to Surgeon General
Wymans, y. said E. Ellison, secretary of
the sailors union of the Pacific, I'VE
will carry the matter into the halls of
congress. Doctor Gassaway has al
ready declared that our protests
against the treatment accorded sea-
faring men while patients under his
charge would be no more effective than
last years birds nests but in the
interest of humanity we will challenge
this assertion and see If what he says
