Washington, d. c., May g. While
many progressive republican congress-
men, headed by Senator Cummins'
were leaving today for Chicago for a
conference on the reorganization OF
the republican party, some OF the old
guard" leaders obviously were shaking
their heads. =
when the time comes to reorganize
the republican party said Senator
Gallinger, an old line leader, Il think
we must follow the men who helped
build the party and not those VINO
helped wreck it." Senator Smoot and
other regulars expressed similar sentl-
ments.
The progressives, however, went
away hopeful of results. They Will con-

LEAVE ON CRUISE
TO AVOID SUFFS
ASQUlTH AND CHURCHILL OFF
FOR THE MEDiTERRANEAN--
MRS. pRuMMoNp ILL.

London, May 9-The apprehension
Of the authorities over the threats of
the militant suffragettes to eclipse
their destructive acts of the last week
was manifested by the precautions
which were taken this morning when
Premier Asquith and First Lord Of the
Admiralty Winston Spencer Church
Ill, accompanied by their wives left
Waterloo station on the Southwestern
to board the admiralty yacht Enchan-
tress on which they are to make long
cruise in the Mediterranean. A large
number of naval aides, government,
departmental secretaries and railway
officials surrounded the. party formed
by the cabinet ministers and those who
had come to bid them goodbye Be-
yond these there was a large circle of
detectives to protect the ministers
from any undue attention by militant
|suffragettes or their male supporters.
So great was the protection force In
the railway station that a demonstra-
ton by the suffragettes would have
been impossible.
Mr.. Asquith and Mr.. Churchill in
tended to inspect the British garrisons
and naval stations in the Mediter-
ranean.

GIRL NARROWLY
ESCAPES DEATH
MISS LUCILLE BRIGGS THROWN
FROM BUGGY WHEN HIT BY
AUTOMOBILE.

Miss Lucille Briggs, $50 North Green
street, had close call from tragic
death last night about 5:45 o'clock
when buggy in which she was riding
was struck by an automobile. The
girls escape Is considered miraculous
and the fact that the buggy top was up
at the time of the acciden Is all that
saved her life. She escaped with only a
few bruises on her left arm. Miss
Briggs is able to be about today.
The accident occurred when Miss
Briggs was driving down North Wapel-
10 street near Maple avenue. She was
going rather slow and was driving In
the middle of the street. Ben Brown
came across the corner of Maple ave-
nue. and did not see Miss Briggs until
he was about one hundred feet behind
her. Mr.. Brown attempted to drive
around Miss Briggs, but collided with
the back Of the buggy before he could
slow down. The buggy was turned
over and the horse was thrown to the
pavement. Miss Briggs is the sixteen
year old granddaughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Alfred Briggs and is student at the
Ottumwa high school. r. ..

Opposes Government Railroad.
Richard Ryan, a party to the noted
"Dick-to-Dick letters in the admins
tration of former Secretary Ballinger
of the interior department., appeared
before the senate territories commit
tee today opposing proposed govern
ment railroad from the coast to the
interior of Alaska He declared Con.
troller Bay, in which he is interested,
offers the best terminus of a railroad
to the interior coal field and argued
that the expense of extending the
Copper River & Northwestern railway
to the coal fields would be much
greater than to build from Controller
Bay. ..
Criticised the Commission.
Ryan contended the government
would be required to build ninety-one
miles Of road at a disadvantage up
grade to reach the Berring coal fields
from Cordova and that his proposed
twenty-six miles from Controller Bay
to the same fields at splendid grade
would knock the other road out OF
business" He criticised the railway
commission for disregarding Control
Ter Bay as suitable railroad terminus.
"They sailed right by. although only
two years ago. the whole hysteria OF
the United States was centered On
Controller Bay, where they said TAFT
and I had monopolized the gateway to
the coal fields" he declared.
Delegate Wichersham of Alaska
asked Ryan if he did not control the
choice locations on the bay.
r"I'd hate to have folks think l had
the first crack out of the box and TOOK
the worst" replied Ryan. ..-- 3d. ~
