AN ULTlMATUM.

Mr. Plat issued an ultimatum TO me
that the incumbent must be reappointed
or else that he would fight, and that if
he chose TO fight the man would stay IN
ANYHOW because l could not Gust him
for under the New York Constitution the
assent Of the Senate was necessary, not
only to appoint a man to office, but to re-
move him from office. AS always with
Mr.. Platt, l persistently refused to lose
my temper, no matter what he said-he
was much too old and physically feeble
for there to be any point OF honor IN
taking up any of his remarks-and l mere
ly explained good-humoredly that l had
made up my mind and that the gentleman
IN question would not be retained. AS for
not being able TO get his successor con-
frmed, pointed out that as soon as the
Legislature adjourned l could and would
appoint another man temporarily. MI.
Platt then said that the incumbent would
be put back as soon as the Legislature
reconvened. / admitted that this was
possible, but added cheerfully that L
would remove him again just as soon as
the Legislature adjourned: and that even
lNOuBn L Udu dll uilSOilllpi loblC IiiilO my
SELF would guarantee to make my OPP
ponents more uncomfortable still. We
parted without any sign of reaching an
agreement.
There remained some weeks before final
action could be taken, and the Senator
was confident that 1 would have to yield.
His most efficient allies were the pre-
tended reformers, most of them my open
or covert enemies, who loudly insisted
that l must make an open fight on the
Senator himself. This was what he
wished, for at that time there was no
way of upsetting him within the Repub-
lican party; and, as ! have said, If had
permitted the contest to assume the shape
Of a mere faction fight between the Gov
ernor and the United States Senator,
would have insured the victory Of the ma
chine. So / blandly refused to let the
thing become a personal fight, explaining
again ana again that L was perfectly will
ing to appoint an organization man. and
naming two or three whom l was willing

old ground explained that the Senator
would under no circumstances yield, that
he was certain TO win in the fight, that
my reputation would be destroyed, and
that he wished to save me from such
Iamentable smash-up as an ending to my
career. / could only repeat what l had
already said. and after half an hour OF
futile argument rose and said that moth

who was known personally to the
Il greater number of Yale men of the
last fifteen years and to all Yale men by
hearsay, marks another important change
in the transformation from old Yale TO
the new-just as the removal Of Lnder's
famous establishment OF Mory's from
Temple street to York street, in New
Haven, caused the old graduates to rub
their eyes when visiting the place last
year. Mory's. as a Yale tavern, is, and
always has been, famous. In many ways
II is the most interesting hosiery in
America 1t is practically safe TO say
that no Yale graduate from the class Of
SO downward has gone through college
without visiting il. For Mory's is as
dear to Yale as the Cheshire Cheese"
the Turks Head" and even the "Mer-
maid Tavern" were to Merrie England.
And the death of Louis Under, who had
stood at its head for the last fifteen
years, is deplored by Yale men all over
the world.

present undergraduates, attended the
funeral of this worthy host" which
was held on Thursday last. The "Ho-

verbally connected with Mory's, were

bearing the title of "grandpop," and it
was thought that no mark of respect
could have pleased him better than to
know that he was to be laid TO rest at
the hands OF his fellow members. For
the past ten years the "Hogans" have
been as integral part Of Mory's as
Louis Linder himself.

TRADITIONS OF MoRYs.

But before we can describe the doings
of Louis Linder and the part that he
has taken in the preservation Of Morys
we must first look into the beginnings
of the tavern that has played so large
a part in Yale undergraduate life Ira
dition hangs about IL as about few
other places. AS the visitor looks for
the famous letters carved on the
benches at Elton and Harrow. so does
he search for the initials of famous
Yale men in the bewildering mass of
names that are carved into Mory's
tables. Discoveries are TO be made
there and more will be made In the flu
ture. Names that are now obscure will
be looked for there as famous ones are
now, for Mory's has become an actual
part of Yale, and in spite Of Louis Lin

private some of the men who signed these
resolutions nervously explained that they
did not mean what they had written and
hoped l would remove the man. citizen

the Cato-like austerity of his reform pro-

father was engaged in writing letters 10

compromising virtue that ! should not
only get rid Of the Superintendent Of In

somebody or other personally offensive to
Senator Plat, which last proposition, II
adopted, would have meant that the SUI
perintendent Of Insurance would have
stayed in, for the reasons have already
given Meanwhile the son came to see
me on behalf Of the insurance company

pany was anxious that there should be a
change in the superintendency; that if
really meant to fight they thought they

ators, Democrats and Republicans. whom
they could get to vote to confirm the man

WILSON SILENT ON
MINOR AMENDMENTS
viii Not Commit Himself on
Tariff Changes.

Washington, May 14.-President vii
son has taken the position that he
ought not commit himself in any way
with respect to numerous minor
amendments TO the tariff bill being
suggested by Democrats.
Secretary Redfield had half hours
talk with the president before the
cabinet meeting and declared he be.
lieyed unimportant changes would be
made. but that IL the president con.
sented to certain ones he would be
besieged with requests TO open up
other schedules.
Secretary Redfield said that since II
had become known an inquiry was to
be made by the bureau of domestic
and foreign commerce into wages and
Industrial conditions, including the
tariff bill, some requests had come
from manufacturers themselves invit
ing such an investigation. These, Mr..
Redfield declared. were based, how
ever, more on the belief that the in.
quiry would be the basis for tariff
rates than an examination as to the
effects of the bill after ii had become
law.

WILL SUPPORT PRESIDENT
Senator J. Hamilton Lewis Not TAX
ing Hearst's Advice.

Washington, May 14.-Senator
James Hamilton Lewis of Illinois has
broken his political alliance with
William Randolph Hearst and cast
his fortunes irretrievably with the ad-
ministration of President Wilson. II
is expected that the Hearst organs
soon will withdraw their support of
the new senator.
Mr.. Lewis will demonstrate his I'm
dependence of Hearst by voting for
the Democratic tariff bill in the SEN
ate. Hearst is strongly opposed to the
measure and has embarked on a cam
paign of abuse of President Wilson
for having sanctioned the scheme of
tariff reduction proposed.
Senator Lewis says he will endeavor
to have some provisions OF the bill
changed, but in any event will vote
for its passage. He denies that he
has broken with Hearst.

SEES MENACE IN SITUATION
Walter Pulitzer to Issue Magazine for
Conservatives.

Washington, May 14.-Walter Pulit-
ger of New York, who is visiting here,
announced that on Sept. he will be-
gin the publication OF new national
magazine for the discussion of i'm
portant national and international
questions. A bureau of experts on do
mestic and foreign political questions
will be established in this city. The
new periodical will be known as Pulit-
zer's Magazine. 1t will contain de-
partments devoted to literature and
art. In announcing his plans for the
magazine Mr.. Pulitzer said:
"A great national problem is loom
ing forward in our country. The peo-
pie have been misled by their desire
for sensation. Out of the fever OF
undertaking has grown disease OF
sullen discomfort with established in
stitutions. Socialism Is threatening
tmericap life."
