MORSE WANTS TO GET BACK RIGHT
 OF CITIZENSHIP
Former Ice King Continues To Improve In Health Since
 Release From Prison
Special from United Press)

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 7-Recovered so sufficiently that his physicians now believe he may live for years, Char les w Morse today is planning to ask either President Taft or Congress to remove the felon's stigma which he bears.
 The communication which President Taft granted the former banker on January IS did not carry with it a restoration of citizenship. Only by a pardon or a special act of Congress can the ex-convict obtain this. Morse's friends plan to ask Congress ito act.
 In the three weeks since his release from Atlanta prison Morse has gained steadily. Dr. Fowler, Morse's personal physician, believes that the re'ief from the mentral strain of waiting for a release and the joy of being with his family again, has acted as a powerful tonic to the former ice king. He is suffering, however, from two diseases for which, 1t is said, medical science has no cure.
 Morse was out of bed for six Hours today, and a part of that time he spent in short walks about his room. At the time he left McPherson hos pital, on a cot, he planned to gain a little strength here, go to New York and be transferred direct to a steamer which would take him to Germany. There he planned to take the baths
 Today, Mrs. Morse said her husband, daughter and herself expected to leave Atlanta, Saturday, and would remain in New York for several weeks before continuing on to Bad Nauheim.

Especial from United Press.)


 Jacksonville, Fla, Feb. 7-The fight for the control of the Republican or had increased so in bitter ness today that it was freely admitted by both sides that there was no hope of reconciliation The action at Palatka, when the State convention split with two sets of delegates, one declared for President Taft's renomi- nation and the other favoring Colonel Roosevelt, was unprecedented in For ida, which, heretofore, has admittedly been the property of the Republican administration at Washington
 The leaders of the "boIting conven- tion" said today they were prepared to carry their contest to Chicago and they say the roll of delegates will show that the majority favored their action.
 They admit. however, their only hope of securing the seats will be to have the Roosevelt forces get in control of the committee on credentials as the Taft delegates were certain to be placed on the temporary roll by the National committee, which makes it up.
 Joseph Lee, collector of internal rev enue in Jacksonville, as temporary chairman, was responsible for the break His rulings. the delegates claimed, were invariably against the anti-Taft men and the latter withdrew in body, organized, elected their own delegates and instructed them for Col onel Roosevelt. The majority of the Roosevelt delegates were negroes Both conventions named full State tickets.

Especial from United Press !

Washington, Feb. 7.-WhiIe await ing further word from the state de- partm ment before moving any of the 34,OO0 troops now held in readiness to advance on the Mexican border, the war department, today, kept a close watch on the movements of General Pasquale Oroszco, leader of the Maderist forces at Chihuahua, re- ported by Colonel F. z. Steever, U. S. A., in command at Fl Paso. to be at the possible head of a new revolution in Chihuahua.
 Should a pro- Oroczco uprising comm ence, Federal officials admit the Mexican situation would be more serious than ever before. With Zapa- to harassing the south Oroczco in the north, and the Gomez, De La Bara and Madero factions struggling in Mexico City. 2 condition approach anarchy would exist throughout the entire country. The immense Ameri- can interests in all parts of Mexico would be seriously menaced and foreigners lives endangered.
 Meanwhile, active preparations are being made at the war departm ent for an extended organization The ad- m1n1stratioD knows that, should it be- come necessary for troops to move On the border, the encampment would last several months, to say nothing of the possibility of crossing the line to preserve order.
