NEW CAMPAIGN PLANS

Announcement Of plans which are ex-
pected in a few days to yield surpris-
ing results was the feature of the
luncheon yesterday noon at the head
quarters of the campaign for the rails
ing of $4,000 for the erection of new
Emergency Hospital.
Although the subscriptions reported
amounted to only $5,51415. the members
of the various teams were by no means
discouraged. The spirit of optimism
which marked the luncheons on Tuesday
and Wednesday was still prevalent. The
workers understood that the limited
number of subscriptions did not signify
inactivity on the part of those assisting
in the gigantic undertaking. They knew
that every one had been busy laying
plans, the results from which will not
be apparent for several days The
amount announced yesterday brings the
total up to $53,9s415.

GOmpers, Mitchell, and Morrison
Cases to Go Higher.

Counsel for Samuel Gompers, John

before the Court of Appeals yesterday
and outlined plans for an appeal to tile
United States Supreme Court and a stay
of mandate which, in the usual course, is
sent down to the lower court at the ex-
piration of fifteen days from the rendi-
ton Of the opinion.
Chief Justice Shepard directed that
the request be held in allegiance until it
was made plain that there was not suffi-
cient time in which to prepare the ap-
plication to the United States Supreme
Court within the term provided by the
rules of this court. He suggested to coun-
sci that If 1t was found impossible tc
have the application ready in time, the
request for stay of mandate might be
renewed.

College Students Respond Heartily
to Nayy's Invitation.

Some of the principal universities ami
colleges of the country have responded
heartily to the navy's invitation for their
students to spend six or eight weeks
during the coming summer on the battle
ships of the Atlantic fleet.
The details of the plan for the accom-
modati of the students now being work
ed out are believed to contemplate quar-
tering the young college men with the
midshipmen, and assigning them TO such
simple duties aboard ship as may fall
within their limited experience.

REMSEN BOARD MAY GO.

of Strife. Will Be Dissolved.

Conferences yesterday between DR.. Ira
E. Remsen, president of the so-called
rRemsen pure food board; Secretary
Houston of the Department of ASricul-
ture and President Wilson, led TO reports
that the Remsen board soon would be
dissolved. Neither Secretary Houston nor
DR.. Remsen would make pasitive state
ments.
1t was pointed out that the work OF the
board can now be done by the reorganiz-
ed bureau of chemistry. Some of the hot
test fights in the administration or the
pure food law have ragged around the
Remsen board and many ardent support
ers of DIR. Harvey w. Wiley, former chlef
of the bureau of chemistry, have charged
that the board hampered an efficient ad-
ministration of the law.
