Mrs. White on Way
West to Join Husband

New York. April 27.-Granville Clark,
counsel for Gail Borden, the condensed
milk manufa cturer. who recovered his
daughter in Boston yesterday after a
four-day search over five States. said to-
night that Mr.. Borden and his daughter
Pomona were still in Boston and that he
did not expect their return to this city
until Monday or Tuesday.
II have heard nothing Of Mrs Borden's
intention to bring legal proceedings to
secure the custody of Ramona said Mr..
Clark. Nor do 1 think that Mr.. Borden
has any knowledge of such a move. All
1 can say to that is that we will cross
that bridge when We come to ii.
Il am able to say that no legal action
iss contemplated by Mr. Borden against
any of those who may have aided in his
daughters fight from the sanatorium.
His most earnest wish, now that he has
found his daughter, is that the public
considered the matter closed and for

William B. Ellison, former corporation
counsel, attorney for Mrs. Helen Sheldon
White, who is alleged to have figured
prominently in connection with Miss Bor-
denis flight said:
Goes to Join Husband.
Mrs. White has no children of her
cwn, and has been interested in Miss
Borden for several years. In answer
TO an appealing letter from the girl, Mrs.
White called at the sanatorium. and
when Ramona ching to Mrs. Whites
automobile and begged to be taken away
from the sanatorium, Mrs. White simply
had not the heart to refuse.
Mrs White lost track of Miss Borden
while they were i'm Boston. as Miss Bor-
den hurriedly left the hotel where they
were stopping when she read in a news
paper that her father was on his way to
Boston and determined to find her."
Mrs. White is now on her way to Chi
csgo to join her husband, William
White, the wealthy chewing gum manu-
facturer, of Cleveland. According to
Mr.. Ellison, Mrs. White has been in daily
communication with her husband since
taking Miss Borden from the sanatorium,
and the husband is said to heartily ap-
prove of the wifes action

Washing Rugs

1t is stated that the republican senators
when the nomination of Joseph f. Davies
10 be commissioner Of corporations comes
up for confirmation will insist. that Mr..
Davies resign his ONCE of secretary OF

reason given is that information about
corporations coming to Mr.. Davies as
commits sioner might be used by him as a
party manager. That Is to say. he might
have ii in his power TO put the screws

But have not the republicans laughed
at that sort OF talk coming from the dem

tended to see in the selection threat to

Haiti.

When announcement was made the
other day that President Auguste of
Haiti had died of natural causes sur
prise was expressed, inasmuch as it is
almost without precedent that an
executive of that turbulent little re-
public should end his days in office In
obedience to natures decree. The pres
idential tenure in Haiti is notoriously
insecure. and the average term is brief,
and administrations have with rare
exceptions been ended with assassina-
ton or forcible eviction. Hence the
surprise. amounting In some cases to
doubt. in the case of Auguste, and now
this doubt is justified, for it is stated
in dispatch coming by way Of Kings
ton that the late president passed
out through the poison route. and that
Immediately following his assassina
ton an uprising occurred that main
tanned all the traditions Of Haitian dis
order and misruie. One can always be-
lieve a story of this kind, for from
Haiti come fact-tales that are stranger
than the fiction of the most gifted
imaginative writer. How long this
state Of affairs can continue is a diff
cult question to answer The troubles
IN Haiti affect the republic alone as a
rule, for foreign interests are well
safeguarded through the watchful
presence Of representatives backed by
SUFFICIENT force of arms to insure the
restoration of order when need arises
But some day a readjustment must
come, both in Haiti and in Santo Do
mingo. The killing of presidents and
the plotting OF revolutions may be
suited TO the Haitian temperament, bu,
they are at odds with the trend of mod
