Lorimer's Toga May
Fall Upon Sullivan

CHICAGO, July A.-Roger G. Sulli-
van. retired Democratic national COM
mitteeman from Illinois, may seek the
toga doed by William Lorimer when
the Senate held Lorimer's election
illegal.
Sullivan is not an openly avowed can
didate for the place, but he has consid-
cred it, and is in a receptive frame of
mind.
II might be a candidate" was his re-
ply about the possibility of his entering
the race.
Sullivan opposes the idea of calling a
special session to fill the vacancy. He
believes that the next legislature will
be Democratic.
Even though there would be dissen-
sion in the Democratic ranks II he be-
came candidate his friends assert that
he would have one powerful branch of
the party b?hind him. and that he
would be able to draw a number of
Republican votes II they were needed.

SUNDRY CIVIL BILL
MAKES BUT LITTLE
PROGRESS IN SENATE
Clause Prohibiting Resigna-
ton of Attorneys Is Not
Struck Out.

In spite of long debate on the sundry
civil bill in the Senate yesterday, little
progress was made In the bill are
many subjects of controversy. One of
the foremost Of them. the allowance for
a tariff board, has not yet come up.
1t is expected to take two or three
days more to dispose of the bill.
The Senate has declined to act on the
recommendation of the Appropriations
Committee to strike out of the bill a
provision which would prohibit Govern
ment attorneys from resignipg to take
up big legal cases as special attorneys
for the Government.
The House put this prohibition in the
bill, and the Senate committee elimi-
mated the prohibition. The Senate de-
bated the matter and postponed action.
Many Government attorneys have taken
this course and made big fees.
Senator Reed of Missouri made a vain
fight against increased appropriations
for road building in the national parks
In the West. Western Senators fought
for such appropriations and they were
allowed.

GOVERNOR WILSON
TODEvOTE WEEK TO
KEYNOTE SPEECH
After Tuesday Democratic
Nominee Will Deny Him "a
-. self to Visitors.

SEAGIRT, N. j., July H.-With the
visit of Champ Clark and the other
Democratic members of the House Of
Representatives to Seagirt yesterday was
brought to a close a series of receptions
and conferences at the little White
House that has continued almost with
out interruption since the news of Gov
ernor Wilson'S selection as the Demo-
cratic nominee for President was re-
ceived from Baltimore.
Governor Wilson has sought fire.
quently to go into seclusion for a few
days in order to prepare his speech Of
Acceptance, to be delivered at the Of
ficial notification meeting here on Au-
gust Z, but the interruptions have been
so numerous and his plans so upset that
the speech still remains unwritten.
After Tuesday, when the governor
will go TO Trenton to attend to State
business, he will deny himself to all
visitors, and will devote the remainder
OF the week to the preparation of his
speech-the keynote speech OF the cam
paign-outlining. as 1t will, the plan of
battle and giving the governors ideas
on the tariff and other measures that
are certain to play an important part In
the campaign. Whether the governor
will remain here and write his speech
or will seek the seclusion of a more
quiet spot near by is not known.
Governor Wilson has given no intima-
ton, even to his closest political
friends, as to what his speech will con-
tain. except an expression of his views
on the tarif question. His mind has
long been made up as to what he will
say. however. and as ne Is an expert
shorthand writer, the preparation of his
speech should not occupy many days of
his time.
The only conference announced for
this week is with Senator Reed OF Mis-
souri,, who will come to Seagirt tomor-
row. AS usual on Sundays. Governor
r Wilson is spending the dav in seclusion
and rest at the home OF a friend at a
nearby resort He will not return until
tomorrow morning.
Champ Clark will return to Washing
ton tomorrow. After spending half an
hour here yesterday afternoon, the
Speaker motored to Deal Beach where
ne spent the night at the summer home
of Colonel Harvey, where his daughter,
GeneVisve, also was guest -.

The human element in accidents Of

Thousands of hurrying men and
women. hundreds Of automobiles. and
street cars by the score, all in this con-

danger against which all precautions
ought to be taken, and the personal re-

District Attorney to
Probe Car Accident,
Declares Huidekoper

AN inquiry will be made by the Dis
trict Attorneys office" said Assistant
District Attorney Reginald Huidekoper
this morning. Such matters come to
our attention through specific COM
plant, through the Police Court, or be-
cause of their notoriety. This case is
one of the latter"
The impression Is current that the case
will not be referred to the grand jury.
Unless new evidence showing criminal
culpability is adduced the case will
probably be dropped.
The grand jury is ready to take its
summer vacation and the District At
torney's office is not disposed to hold
the jurors in Washington unless there
is good reason to do so.
THE grand jury said Mr.. Huide-
koper. "can take up a case on its own
Initiative. do not recall case in
which this course has been taken in the
District. however. Ordinarily the initia-
tive is taken by the District Attorneys
Office
A further hint as to the attitude of
the District Attorneys office was
dropped by Mr.. Huidekoper when he
said that ordinarily the finding of a
coroners jury is accepted by the office.

ROSENTHAL KILLING
SMELLS OF POLICE,
SAYS COMMISSIONER
Detectives Ordered to Find
Newsboy Who Saw Shoot
ing of Gambler.

NEW YORK. July H-Georre 8.
Dougherty, second deputy police COM
missioner and active head of the hunt
for Herman Rosenthars murderers,
closed his review Of the case today by
smashing his fist down on the desk in
front Of him and shooting out this
statement:
Il would no more send out Lieutenant
Becker to arrest a man in connection
with the killing Of Rosenthal than I
would send out Jack Rose himself"
Dougherty has Just sent detectives to
Saratoga with orders to find and bring
back the newsboy who handed a paper
to Rosenthai half a minute before the
gang from the gray automobile killed
him.
Boy Spirited Away.
A fund was raised for this boy, who
has been a familiar figure at Broadway
and Forty-second street and in the
neighborhood Of the Metropole. and who
was able to get a perfect description Of
the gunmen, and he was sent to Sarato-
ga within a few hours after Rosenthal
was silenced.
He is by far the most important wit
ness, and the investigation took a long
leap forward with the discovery Of his
whereabouts.
Dougherty's statement was the first
admission from the police department.
that Lieut.. Charles Becker. friend and
beneficiary of Jack Rose, the organizer
of the murder gang, had stake In the
case.
Dougherty himself, who has driven
that no conspiracy Of uuarelling ganb-
lers was responsible for the murder,
told District Attorney whitman that
the Job smelled of policemen from
long way OFF. Dougherty spoke out last
night as a man tired of evasions.
Five Main Clues.
AS the case stands at present. with
five days gone since Rosenthal was
killed, the police have run down five
main clues to the assassination.
They have the car In which the MUIR
derers escaped.
They have the chauffeur and his SUBJ
stitute in operating the car.
They have in Jail the man who hired
the car about three hours before the
crime was committed.
They have the revelation made by
Shapiro, Libby. and Rose.
And last, they have newsboy who
sold papers to Rosenthal just before he
was killed.
with all this information Deputy Po-
lice Commissioner Dougherty repeated
today his strongly intimation of last
night that Lieutenant Bicker would yet
be brought into the story In way
little to his liking.
Police Implicated.
Dougherty told District Attorney
Whitman that the whole case implicated
the police.
While there is no evidence, he said,
TO warrant Becker's arrest. there are
suspicious condolences and informa-
ton of astonishing activity on the part
OF Beckers friends a few hours before
the murder.
Bald Jack Rose who was working his
head off doing Beckers work on Mon
day night, hired the car that carried
the assassins of Becker's enemy. Now,
any farmer sitting under his own apple
tree can draw his own conclusions.
I'VE are after the facts wherever they
may be. This crime will be solved and
soon. And when we get ready to let
the public know as much as we know
there will he the most startling story of
conspiracy and murder that the town
ever heard"
