PROVES NERVE BY
2OO-FOOT PLUNGE

New York, June 24.-An extensively
dressed young man, with a flowing red
crepe tie, low tan shoes and silk Shirt,
climbed onto the railing in the middle
of Washington bridge Saturday after
noon and leaped 200 feet down into the
Harlem river. Many others have leapad
from the bridge, but he is the only one
who did it and survived.
He was John Bruins, 81 years old, an
architect, who lives with his mother
at number TIL Elsmere place, the
Bronx. He insisted that he had no
intention of killing himself and did it
solely to convince haunting friends that
he possessed nerve.
leased me about not having enough
nerve 10 ask q girl to marry me-" salt
Bruins. He is a mild hammered, modest
young man of apparent refinement and
possessing a sensitive disposition. 81
did not wish to marry, and that was
why I never asked a girl to be my wife.
But my friends tainted me about what
they called my bashfulness and lack
of nerve.
For a long time I tried to think Of
something to do hat would convince
them that L had all the nerve neces-
sary. l ~pondered over jumping from a
bridge and naturally went down to the
Brooklyn bridge first, but there I found
the place too well guarded by police
men. So I looked up some statistics
and found that Washington bridge had
the highest arch.

GOVERNOR DOES HIM AN
INJUSTICE SAWS MIJRPHY

New York, June 24-Charles r. MUIR
ply, leader of Tammany hall, in q
statement last night, declared that
Gov. Sulzer was absolutely in err
ror,'' when he accused Mr.. Murphy
''of being a party to any so-called con-
spiracy to ~discredit" the governor. Mr..
Murphy replied also to other assertions
regarding him by Governor Sulzer.
"If, as he says Mr.. Murphy's state
ment adds, detectives have been en-
gagged in securing the country In quest
Of reflections on his record, I new
nothing of it until he himself impaired
the information. Indeed, all his other
allegations concerning me We're Just as
false and absurd, N he knows it,
While he was in Albany attending
the meeting of presidential electors Mr..
Murphy says Governor Sulzer sent a
messenger asking for an appointment.
The statement continues:
81 said I would have to decline to
meet the governor unless the msssen-
ger or some other third party would
sit in the room and listen to the con-
versation; that 1 would lot trust my
self alone because / believed the gov
ernor would not hesitate to swear my
life away if he found it to his advan-
tage to do so. Subsequent events have
confirmed my Judgment"
Regarding a later meeting he had
with the governor in this city, the
Tammany leader says the appointment
was sought by the executive.
81 made no proposition of any kind
or character at that interview" the
statement adds. IF L have ever made
a dishonest or d~ishonorable proposition
to William Sulzer at any time since the
first day he knew me, let him make it
known to the public. There is nothing

TOT all the papers In the white slave
case and h other for the papers In

PRESIDENT Wilson already has called
on Attorney General McReynolds for
a statement of the reasons for the post
ponement.
Mr.. Wilson's View.
The president said he had no knowl-
edge of the affair until he read 1T in
lne newspapers, but 1t appeared to
MIN at first glance that the reason
given for the p-ostponement Of the
cases--that the commissioner Of i'm
migration might attend the trial of his
humane one. The president
was OF the opinion that the delay
would not embarrass the case, though
ne declared n a he would look into
the matter.
Mr.. McNab's resignation was put on
the presidents desk today and it was
said 1T would be acted upon promptly.
IL was said again today at the de-
Partment Of justice that Attorney
Genera McReynolds would later give
out q formal statement on the affair,
put 1t was intimated that 1t might not
be done until after making a report to
president Wilson. White House Of
hc1als declared they had received no

SECRETARY WILSON SAYS
HE ALONE is TO BLAME
Washington, June 23.-Secretary Will
son of the department of labor took full
responsibility in the postponement of
the trial inthe Diggs-Camnitti case, the
basis of sensational charges t~elegraphed
to the president Saturday by United
States Attorney McNab OF San Fran
cisco, with a request tina his r~esigna-
ton be accepted at once. In a signed
statement Secretary Wilson said:
The attorney general postponed trial
in the Diggs-Camnitti case solely upon
my request. I, therefore, am RESPONSE
Bile for the postponement.
MIR. A. Camsnitti has but recently as
sumed the duties of commissioners gem
seral of immigration. He has not yet
fully familiarized himself with the du-
ties of the office. He asked me for
leave of absence in order hat he might
return to California to be present at
h trial Of his SON. / insisted that he
remain here until he was sufficiently
acquainted with the duties of the po-
sition Of commissioner to be able pvpp-
erly to inspect the immigration stations
at Pacific ports when he returned to
California. He therefore suggested that
would ask the attorney general to
postpone the trial Of the case until the
next term of court. It is nothing I'M
usual for the district attorney of that
or any other district or the attorney
general to grant a postponement Of
trial in such cases. The suggestion and
the request came from me purely in the
interest of the public"
The resignation of United States At
torney John L. McNab of San Fran
cisco will be accepted promptly.
