Governor Will Stick to Res
ervatiOn in Spite of
"War" RumOrS.
GAFFNEY PUT FORWARD
Leaders Friends Hint That
Consideration for Organiza-
tion Applications Was
Demanded at Sc
cret Confab.

In spite OF the .act that Governor
Sulzcr. both here and I'm Albany. CON
, iinucd his denials that he had held A
conference with Charles f. Murphy on
Tuesday afternoon and that the Leader
Of Tammany Hall followed the cue If
the Governor. further details Of their
meeting were learned yesterday.
It was learned that Mr.. Murphy re-
noWed his request that James II. Gaff-
of Highways and that The" McManus
bc made Commissioner of Labor. The
Governor repeated his former asscr-
;ions that he woald appoint neither
man.
II is understood that the Tammany
man had no idea that his friends Wouln
bc appointed. but ne simply renewed
bis requests 10 form basis for getting
, othcr faVoIs thap ne desires.
Tammany leaders say Mr. Murphy
has little doubt that he will get rea-
sonal.lo amount Of what he wants from
;hc Governor. As a matter Of policy
however. they say, the appearance of a
warfare between the Governor and the
leader will probablv bc maintained.
The Governor pleaded that il would
, hurt the organization Il he should APP
point Mr. Gaffncy and Mr.. McManus.
Mr. Murphy replied that these men
were undoubtedly no 10 tho standard
set 10y the Governor in many Of his ap-
pointmonts. He gave the Governor TO
understand that ne would expect con
sidcration for the orga nization and WAS
tired If hearing all the talk Of war
coming from Albany
The Governor assured him he had no
desire To force an open fight and would
be glad 10 consider the recommends
tons from the organization.
"Oa course" said Tammany man
last night. the Governor and the
boss" having held their conference in
secret. could do nothing else than deny
it, | believe that Mr.. Murphy has
perfect right To 20 ana see the Gov
ernor Of this state in the open, and for
The life Of me can't see what there is
to conceal in it, Now that they have
found out they can't fool the news
papers. perhaps they viii have their
next meeting without all the secrecy
that was thrown around this one
Just before the Governor started for
Albany Yesterday morning hc was
asked IL he had seen Mr.. Murphy at
Delmonico's. or any Other place, on
Tuesday afternoon.
Il positively did not" he declared.
Il only saw Governor SulZer once
while hc was in town" declared Mr.
Murphy. That was al the dinner Of
the Friendly Sons of -. Patrick"
Asked how MS war with tine Gov
crnor Was progressing. Mr. Murphy
smiled and said
War? Why. ! am not At war with
sny man"
II was said last night that. although
the Governor and Mr. Murphy under
stood one another pretty well now. the
leader Of Tammany Hall might go 10
Albany before long 10 have q further
talk with the state Executive.
The Governor has no appointments

Iowa City. June 2s.-Women excel

ity of Iowa.
This Is the story told in the statistics
just compiled by Registrar Forest c.
Ensign for the university year just
ended. Many reasons. however. are
given in defense OF the young mon. II
is claimed that q larger per cent OF
the men are self supporting. that they
carry heavier university work than the
women and that there is q decided ten
dency for the "co-eds'' to fill only min
imum requirements. The records In
the registrars Office verify these
claims.
The grades Of the students In the
university are divided into four classi-
fications. OF these who did good OF
excellent work last year 1913 per cent
were women and 1871 per cent were
men. In the second classification,
fair or average"-the women again
excel-but by as mailer margin. 1t IL

When 1t comes to the lowest passing
mark" ther are more men than women
the per cents being 6.2 men against
3.2 women.
The fourth classification are those
who do not pass. including "flunkers
and those who were for any reason
compelled to drop courses. Here only
rs per cent are women, while 1853 per
cent are men.
