WILSON WON'T BE CALLED
IN PROBING FOR LOBBY

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The lobby
investigation, according to President
Wilson, is clearing up a most dis
agreeable situation and will result in
the cleansing of politics from an I'M
fortunate phase which has existed for
many years.
In his semi weekly conference witt
the newspaper cabinet" to-day the
President showed he was most opti-
mistic concerning the outcome of the
inquiry.
The Chief Executive declined to
discuss the charge of Senator Town
send, of Michigan, that he has been
lobbying for the purpose of the I'm
derwood tariff bill, because, he said,
the Senator's charges have not yet
been formulated in a manner Suffi-
cient to warrant an official denial,
either from the President as regards
the bill itself or from the White
House with respect to the use of the
"big stick Of patronage"
When asked if he will testify be
fore the lobby committee, either in his
official capacity or as a private citi-
zen, the President side stepped by
saying:
Il have not yet been invited and
therefore can not say what will do"
Senator Sutherland, Republican, of
Utah, testifying in the lobby quiz to-
day, confessed to owning $500 shares
of mining stock he valued at about
cents d share and 1850 shares Of
stock in the Amalgamated Sugar
Company, worth $40 a share His in
terest in mines and sugar would in
no way influence his vote. he said.
Senator Reed. of the investigating
committee, declared a lobby exists,
and in proof of his assertion called
the attention of the committee to the
number of legislative agents at the
Capitol when Congress reconvened
The Senator said he talked with many
of these lobbyists. He said a mes
sage to him read as follows:
please vote against free sugar and
save the mule industry of St. Louis"
The Senator said he learned the
muleteers of St. Louis sold their stock
to the sugar planters and he inferred
that the sugar men had threatened
the market.
Il think that class of men should be
prohibited from lobbying in the Capt.
toll of the nation and in the Capitols
of various States" Reed said.

MISS WILSON KEEPS DIARY.

WASHINGTON, juno 3. Miss
Eleanor Wilson is keeping a diary of
her daily life as daughter Of Pres
ident of hte United States.
Since March much curiosity has
been expressed as to what use Miss
Wilson will make of the numerous
notes she jOts down everywhere she
goes, even at dances and other even
ing entertainments. She carries a
very tiny gold lead pencil and a small
piece Of paper folded in the palm of
her glove. That society men and
women will be discussed in a forth
coming book is generally believed.

SUFFRAGTTES DEMAND
A FIERY VENGEANCE

LONDON, June 9.--The death #
Miss Emily Wilding Dawson from
injuries received when she tried 10
break up the Derby last Wednesday
resulted to- day in the worst wave
of suffragette terrorism that Eng
land has yet experienced. Bands OF
women here and elsewhere attacked
property with Amazon ferocity, do
ing damage by fire estimated at $780,
900 to $4,000.
The grandstand at Hurst Park
race course was consumed by fire.
The blaze had been set in the box
occupied by the royal family Oil
and tar had been smeared over the
woodwork and the flames spread
quickly. BY the time the alarm was
given the stand was mass of flames
Despite efforts of fremen to eXtin-
guish the fire, it burned eight hours.
At Whippscross and Wartham-
stow, club houses of boating organ
iZationS were set afire and scores or
small craft destroyed. At Wartham-
stow the flames spread to the sur
rounding forest and several villages
were threatened. Volunteer firemen
fought the blaze for hours before they
were able to subdue it.
The headquarters of the Women s
Social and Political Union were draped
Visions memory. Plans were set afoot
to hold a public funeral for the dead
woman, and the cortege will be
marked by a mighty procession N
women through the streets of London.
Leaders of the union hope to have
100000 women in line.
Miss Dawson died Sunday after
noon in Epson Hospital. From the
time of her relapse Friday after
Z xr-oc oUidant Ch could not re-
cover. Christabel Pankhurst, the eX-
lied suffragette in Paris sent the fol-
lowing tribute:
Miss Dawson died for women. She
died to call attention to their wrongs
and win them the vote. The govern
ments refusal to grant the vote drove
her to make protest. Argument has
not convinced Mr.. Asquith of the I'M
fairness of his position, but perhaps p
woman's death Will
Miss Davison's memory will live
in women's hearts and in history for
all time There will be a public flu
neral in her honor This soldier has
fallen in a war for female freedom
Mrs. Despard, another militant,
said;
Miss Dawson was one of those
who believed that blood must be the
Justice il our demands would be rec
ognized. She is as true martyr IS
Joan of Arc"
'In truth the question is death 70"

Miss Christabel Pankhurst in an ar
ticle in The Weekly Budget in refer
ence to the hunger strike Of her moth
err. Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, the
militant leader, and the death of Miss
Dawson.
"a very serious situation has
arisen" writes Miss Pankhurst, and
we are now face to face with tragedy.
The men of the country and the
worthless government they have set
in power must act or they Will see
women dying before their eyes"

There are no absentees among the

The players are in splendid spirits
over their big victory and are antic.
ipating the skirmish with Bucknell
on next Saturday with more pleas
ure, though they realize that the con-
test will be the hardest of the local
season. Bucknell defeated Pittsburgh
on Saturday to 0, and it will pe re-
membered Pittsburgh held Navy to a
scoreless tie in the initial game of
the season.
There was no lineup yesterday aft
ernoon, the short practice period be-
ing devoted to kicking, passing and
the perfecting Of various other plays.
Coach Reilly cautioned the players
particularly about holding and other
offenses which caused the loss Of
many yards in every game this sea-
son. He told the team that he did
not want to see them lose five yards
in this way next Saturday. He also
cautioned the ends tc be on the watch
for forward passes. On Saturday at
times the ends did not turn quick
enough and the ball nearly hit them.
Both Mitchell and Nichols, who are
contestinC for quarterback, were full
of life in yesterdays practice. The
fight will be an interesting one q I'd
Nichols would have the first call for
the position had he started practice
with the squad instead Of reporting
last week. Mitchell has improved
in his work with every game, but has
shown no brilliant ground gaining
such as Nichols exhibited in the
short time he was in the game SAT-
urday.
A blackboard talk in the gym fol-
lowed by light scrimmage work on the
plains was the program for the Army
team yesterday. The defeat suffered
by the cadets at the hands Of Notre
Dame saturday is not taken seriously
by those in charge of the deVe lopment
of the Army eleven.
Everybody realizes that the Army
was up against the real thirg in the
Notre Dame contest. The Navy game
is the one contest in the minds Of
all concerned. 1t is seemingly to be
hard task for Coach Daily AID his
assistants to whip a team into shape
TO battle successfully against the
middies in New York this month,
but all hands are going to resume the
grind today with more determination
than ever.

PUBLIC ROAD CLOSED.
Bridge Down al Ann6el-ou Taa Bay
and Entrance lmpassable by Eay
Ridge Road

Sunday being an ideal autumn day,
many diving and automobile parties
were allured to the county rOa ds.
Several parties drove to AFunde Ion
the Bay, some of them coming over
from Washington, but imagine their
disappointment and disgust when
they reached the end of the Bay
Ridge road only to find their access
to Arundel-on-the-Bay barred.
The bridge over this little stream
at Highland Beach is intact, but the
other bridge spanning an inlet that
makes in from the bay at the en-
trance Of Bay Ridge is entirely out
Of commission, and altogether impass-
able to traffic Boards are Off and
the bridge is in a dangerous condi-
ticn. Beyond the bridge the road is
washed away and also impossible to
teams. The repairs will necessitate
time, labor and great expenditure
of money.
1t would appear that some public
notice should have been given Of ths
closing Of this road, as many auto
mobile parties take it for pleasure

The national capital is being re-

because no possible hope can be dis

The President now is in substance
this:
He has exhausted every peaceful
means to bring about the retirement
Of Huerta; be has repudiated in ad-
vance the result Of last Sunday s
election, having served notice that
this Government will refuse to recog-
nize the Administration established
through that farcial contest.
He has pie dyed his word to make a
statement TO the foreign Powers Of
the attitude Of the United States to-
ward Mexico as soon as the election
returns are formally declared.
Finally, the President has made
it known shat this Government will be
found when the proper time comes
maintaining its traditional policies
and acting toward Mexico as the Uni
ted States always has acted toward
the Governments Of the Western
hemisphere, independently of Euro

PRESBYTERIANS PLEASE.

ment at the Great Stores of Bent sch
& Sons, and who offered his services,
gratis, for the occasion.
The beautiful records included
those by Nine. Schumann Heink,
Melba, Caruso. Christie Mcdonald,
Paderewski, Misha, Elmsn and others
of like note. The Sextette from Lucia
was a feature of the musical program,
and there was any number of vocal
and instrumental sele ctions by the
best composers and artists. The in
strument was one of the best Its
tones were sweet, welt modulated
and there was an absence of the me-
talic sound so characteristic cf most
of the musical machines of the day.
1t was splendid Victor and the
Kindness of Mr.. McCready, manager
for the local firm who loaned the in
strument, is greatly appreciated by
the Presby yterians, who gave the en-
tertainment Later in the evening
the Benesch firm and management and
Mr.. Morris, who arranged the records
we're given a rising vote Of thanks.
The business meeting opened with
singing "Jesus Reigns Where 'er the
sun. This was followed by prayer
by a visiting clergyman. The presi-
dent of the Missionary Society, Mrs.
Clarence G. Dorsey, presided, and the
roll was called by the eecre tsry, Mrs.
Richard Grady. The president intro
duced Miss Lucy Dawson, of Balti-
more, who made q telling adore SIS.
Miss Dawson's pleasing personality
at once won favor with her audience.
Her address was torcetul and con-
vincing. She spoke Of Doing
Things" and doing them from stand
poiat Of spirit rather than duty. She
said there are three classes of people,
those who, like the Roman galley
slave. do their work because they
must, because they have to; sec
ond. the 81 ought class, those who
do things simply because it is their
duty, and the third class who DO
| things because they want to and these
are the onts who put spirit in it.
We belong to all classes, she said,
but there is nothing to commend th1
| classes of 81 must" and q ought. +"
1t is class that likes TO do the work
that accomplishes the most Miss
| Dawson's address was thoroughly
| practical and made a favorable i'm
| preston. Mrs. Frisius spoke of the
missionary literature at its value
and showed samples OF several mis-
sionary magazines and papers.
| After the meeting chicken selad
| sandwiches and hot coffee was served,
and the Victrola concert was con-
tinued. The evening was a delightful
one and, it is understood, others Of
| the same character will follow.
