Dennis Bo1den's Story.

Mrs Katz was greatly reiiever yester-
DAY. when she heard the report that
Dennis Bclden a negro. had seen her
husband in q restaurant near Union sta-
ton Tuesday morning. Today, however.
she believes the mystery no nearer so,u-
ton than i. was before she heard OF Bol-
den's statement. 1t is believed by most
OF the miss ng man relatives that Boil
den = mistaken.
BoIdens description OF the clothing the
grocer wore when he saw him does not
tally with the clothing the latter wore
when he was Iast seen in :he wholesale
provision store of kingan Co., $50
Peaas yivania avenue northwest, Monday
morning shortly before lie disappeared.
Mrs. Katz does not believe her hus-
band purchased new clothing. JACOB
Katz, father of the missing grocer. had
arranged to go to New FORK today and
search for his son, because Bolden had
told the police the grocer said he was
going there. In view of his Dellef that
Bolden is mistaken in the identification
of the man he saw, however. the trip
was abandoned.
Percy Phillips. coIored porter in
PENNSYLVANIA avenue northwest told
a Star reporter that the man he saw in
the restaurant Monday morning was
not katz 4 man did complain of be-
ing sick he stated but a photograph
shown him of the missing grocer, he
stated was not a likeness of that par
ticular man.

information leading to the whereabouts

NOTE GIVES A CLUE
katz Thought Victim of Walk
ing Typhoid Fever.
MESSAGE is iNCOHERENT
Missing Man Complained of Feeling
Ill Before His Disap-
pearance.

An incoherent Eote found among some
papers belonging to Max H.. Katz. the
grocer who has been missing since Mon
day. and circumstances in connection
with a carriage ride which he took July
with his wife. today lead his relatives
TO believe he has been suffering from
walking typhoid fever.
Jacob KatZ father OF the missing man,
went to his sons store, 12sh and ID
streets northeast, today, and while
searching a basket which the young man
had used Monday, the father discovered a
note in his sons handwriting. The note
follows:
Loving father and mother-I have
your life. My life. l was your life"
Complained of Illness.
No name was signed TO the note 1t is
believed the missing man wrote the note
either Sunday or Monday morning. The
fact that he had been complaining of
being i'll, and the incoherency of the note,
together with his apparent loss of MEM
ory July 4, leads his relatives to believe
he was Ill. 1t has been recalled by his
wife that on the evening of July 4, after
she had accompanied her husband TO the
White Lot in their carriage TO witness
the fireworks, he had driven toward Nir-
ginia.
You are going in the wrong direction" :"
said the wife.
NO: am sure know how to go home, -
the husband is said to have replied.
They continued to drive for some time.
After a time, however, a co!ored man
who was met vouched the information to
the grocer's question as to the directlon
to Pennsylvania avenue. that the couple
were then in Virginia. They then drove
home.

TROOPS FOR CITIES
Army Council Considers Aban-
doning Isolated Posts.
DIVISION ON THE QUESTION
Plans for National Reserve Involved
and No Decision Is Reached
at Conference.
DIVISION ON THE QUESTION

The army council at the War Depart
ment has been considering that part of
the reorganization project which involves
the quarterng of regiments directly in
the cities instead of at isolated army
posts, as at present.
incidentally this involves the even more
important question of q national reserve
as it was urged that by keeping a given
regiment permanently in some great city,
which might be regarded as its home, the
men discharged after serving one terfn
of enlistment might be expected to re-
main in the vicinity of the regiment, at
the place where they We're recruited, and
thus constitute an effective and easily
tached reserve. No decision wac reached
on the merits of the two systems of
quartering troops. and the discussion will
proceed.
The primary purpose of these confer
ences is 10 harmonize. military sentiment
first and legislative sentiment secondarily
to the end that all legislation affecting
the army may be in harmony with a basic
policy which shall have the cordial ap-
proval of all army officers and the SYM
pathy and support of all members of
Congress

becomes an accepted theory of astronomy
1t has been found that the stars are all
on the go, some of them travelling in
great procession toward the constellation
Oricn. and some in the opposite direction
in a Ike great procession. Then there
are other streams of stars which move at
right angles to these. and these latter
seem to be the younger families of suns.
and they travel only about four-seventns
as fast as those going to and from Orion.
Prof Boss holds to the theory that some
are being driven away from Orion by re-
puls.ye force, while others are being
drawn toward that constellation by the
pull of gravity.

Reserve Force Criticised.

Another feature which is criticised is
the provision for reserve force. Senator
du Pont, chairman of the Senate military
committee, was present at the War De-
partment conference Tuesday and an
nounced that he did not approve the
scheme of short enlistments and the main
tenance OF a reserve force which pays
members SO much a month and holds
them subject to call to the colors.
There is, generally speaking, however.
a surprising diminution of the opposition
TO the pan.
Senator du Pont believes reservists
should receive no pay until they return
to the service and are accepted when
they would receive a bonus equal TO
monthly compensat tion for the period they
have been out of the service, not ex-
ceeding 500 In each case. BY this means
it would be possible to regulate payment
for the reservists who are available for
duty and VINO present themselves. The
plan would also save the War Depart
meIt the trouble of keeping track of
members of reserve corps.
These two features may be somewhat
modified to meet Congress criticism.
There is little in the plan. however, which
is not subject TO modification il some
better method can be suggested.

Army Officers Disagree.

One serious obstacle which every Sec
retary of War has had to encounter has
been the wide diversity of opinion among
army officers, which has enabled chair
men of the military committees hostile
to any plan to secure expert testimony
in opposition to the aims of the Secretary.
Mr.. Stimson believes that by means of
these conferences, at which every phase
of the proposed reorganization will be
thoroughly digested and discussed, and
at which every officer who desires will
be afforded an opportunity to express his
views. the army sentiment will be co-or-
dinated
BY inviting members of Congress to be
present the Secretary hopes to gain the
benefit of their advice and to enlist their
sympathy for the broad policy which has.
as the result of more than a years work
by the War College, been laid down as
ba sis for the proposed reorganiza ton.
There is no expectation that any general
scheme of legislation embodying the fea-
lures of this plan will be enacted at this
session of Congress. On the other hand,
it is desired that in framing this year $
army bill members of Congress shall have
the proposed plan in mind and shall so
far approve 1t as to restrain from en-
bodying in that bill anything at variance
Herewith.
