LOBBY DISCLOSURE
INTERESTS WILSON
President Not Surprised, He
Tells Callers, by Story
of MuIhaII.
PUTS ON WHITE ATTIRE
AND Dimes AL FRESCO
Finds Comfort at White House.
Even if the Weather Is
Warm at Times.

President Wilson was not surprised with
the new developments In the lobby in
quiry. he told visitors today, although he
did not have the latest discoveries and
charges in mind when he issued his state
ment about the ''insidious'' work of the
lobbyists. The President has never
doubted that his charges would be fully
borne out before the investigation ended.
What he is pleased about is that the al
legged lobby is by no means as active
now as in the past.
The President discussed currency legis-
lation with Representative Bulzley of
Ohio and with others during the day.
The President is open to suggestions for
amendment of the bill as now pending in
the House and Senate, but his mind is
practically made up that the federal re-
serve board should be under control of
the government and not of the banks. 1t
is not likely that he will consent to
changes in this particular section Of the
bill.
The White House mail does not indi-
cate any great public interest in the cur
rency bill. as was the case in the pre-
liminary stages of the tariff bill. Letters
on the subject are few and far between
and simply commend the stand of the
President that reform in currency laws
should be cOntemporaneous with tariff re-
vision.

a Coincidence of History.

Now here's one OF the condolences OF
history. and it may interest Washington
folks, especially army people: Gen. Lig-
Setts salute was the first accorded him
since his most recent promotion. 1t was
fired by Locke's battery. which is B Bat
terry of the Fled Artillery from Fort
Myer. This battery has a grand Gettys-
burg ancestry, for ii is a lineal descend
ant of Caleffs battery, which opened the
fight west of the town fifty years ago.
Caleff's battery was then Battery A.
ist Artillery, in Buford's command. CAL
eff's old guns are still on the Gettys-
burg battlefield, near the Buford monu-
ment. and those of Locke's are within
few feet of the old guns of Caleff.
AS soon as Gen. Lfggett ar lived and
took command he appointed as his ad-
jutant Lieut.. Simon Bolivar Buckner. jr..
OF the 9th Cavalry, who Is the son OF
Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner. Oldest sur
viving Confederate commander. Lieut.
Buckner was an instructor with the Dis
trict OF Columbia National Guard at
Harpers Ferry a year ago.
