WILSON'S PARTY
HOMEWARD BOUND
Physically Refreshed, President
Is Ready to Take UP
Govt Reins.

ON BOARD PRESIDENT WILL
SONS SPECIAL TRAIN. WEST
POINT. Ga. Jan. 12.-President Will
son today iourneyed homeward. ready
to take up government problems with
renewed vigor. He looked physically
refreshed by his vacation. of nearly
three weeks at Pass Christian. Miss.
and appeared in better health than at
any time since his inauguration.
The President told members Of his
party that he might go to the gulf
coast again for winter vacation. His
desire for isolation was courteously
observed during his stay there and he
was not annoyed by the horde of call
ers who daily seek TO see him at the
White House.
Aside from John Lind his personal
representative in Mexico. the only
person who came to Pass Christian to
see the President on business was
Mrs. Margaret Cardwell. of Beau
mont. Tex. While she did not get an
audience with the President. a note
from her reached him.
Mrs. Cardwell said she had made
the journey from Texas with financial
difficulty. and sought Justice in her
suit against a railroad of that State,
from whom she claimed damages for
the death OF her husband. a con-
ductor. She failed TO get her case be-
fore an unprejudiced tribunal. The
President sent DR.. Cary T. Grayson,
his naval aide. to ask Mrs Cardwell
TO prepare a statement of the facts
and send them to the White House.
DR.. Grayson today received a tele-
gram from Cooney Hansborough. his
fellow townsman at Culpeper. Va,
telling him that if the Presidents
train would stop at Culpeper. "the
whole town" would be at the station
to meet him. Several weeks ago when
DR.. Grayson did have an ambition OF
his youth gratified in having a fast
train stop at his town of Culpeper,
there was no one there to greet the
Presidential party except Hansbor-
ough, an odd character whose all
ments DIR. Grayson has attended for
many years.
The Presidents aide regretfully an
swered his friend that the train would
pass through Culpeper at s o'clock to-
morrow morning and therefore could
not stop.

MERCURY TABLETS
ARE TAKEN BY BOY
Michael Robbins Says He Took
Poison in Mistake for
Quinine.

Michael Robbins, sixteen years old,
an usher at one of the local theatres,
who lives at 80 Magnolia street. swal-
lowed two bichloride of mercury tab
lets, containing fifteen grains of the
poison, at his home last night. To-
day he is in a serious condition at the
City Hospital.
Robbins said that he took the tab
lets in mistake for quinine capsules.
His mother bears him out in this
statement. Last night Robbins told
his mother he was not feeling well,
according to her story, and the boy
went into the kitchen. saying that
he would take some medicine. Al
though there was a light in the kitch-
en- he says he did not notice the bot
tie which he took or the inscription
on it. About a half an hour later the
effects of the poison became apar-
ent and he asked his mother what the
bottle contained.
Horror stricken Mrs. Robbins
rushed to the kitchen and found that
her son had taken poison instead of
medicine. DR.. William F. Hoeler, of
3SS South Sixth street, was summoned
and he gave the boy emergency treat
ment and called for the City Hospital
ambulance. 1t is said that nothing
short of a miracle will save the boys
life.
Although Mrs. Robbins and her son
stoutly maintain that the tablets
were taken by mistake the police and
hospital authorities do not think It
possible. The bottle which contained
the poison is a special bottle made
for bichIoride of mercury tablets and
is triangular shaped, and Of blue
glass with a conspicuous label with
Poison" inscribed The tablets are
also triangular shaped and each tab
let is marked Poison"
The police will investigate the case
further.

FIELDER DENIES
KUEHNLE RUMOR
Says Report That He Is Behind
Move for Pardon Is Insult
to Him and Board.
rs.ecla, TO the newark start

TRENTON, Jan. 12.-It was ru-
mored here that powerful political in
terests are behind the move to secure
pardon for Louis Kuehnle, the con-
victed leader lof Atlantic county. who
has served about q month of his
years sentence in State prison, It was
declared that Governor elect Fie1der's 8
sympathies had been enlisted and that
Kuehnle would be freed soon after the
governor took office.
The governor-elect denies this and
brands any reports to this effect as
an insult. not onlf to himself but the
pardon board of New Jersey.
1t was said that Kuehnle's friends
based their hopes of a pardon on some
sort of reciprocal agreement where
by Stephen NJ. Egan and John Zeller.
two convicted Hudson county poll
ticians, would be given their liberty.
Egan was county collector, of Hud-
son county and one of Bob" Davis's
political lieutenants, and Zeller was
sheriff of the county and another cog
in the Hudson county Democratic ma
chine.

CONGRESS BACK
At WORK AFTER
BRIEF VACATION
Both Houses Get Down to Busi-
ness, Hoping to Be Done
by June.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Congress
got back to work today fresh from
the holiday vacation to be greeted by
the usual avalanche of bills and reso-
lutions.
Bills to conserve radium on the
public lands of the United States
for the regulation of trusts, for va
rious inquiries, and the usual grlst
of special measures poured through
the hopper of the House when Speaker
Clark brought down his gavei. None
of the so-called administration trust
bills which have been in the making
in the judiciary committee made their
appearance, however. and proDaoly
will not until after President Wilson
delivers his special message after ne
returns from the South.
In the Senate a congressional IN
vestigation of the Michigan copper
mine strike proposed in a resolution
by Senator Ashurst was one OF the
features of the reassembling. Both
Houses got down to work promptly
with the leaders determined to run
the machinery at high speed and get
away probably in June.
For the first time since President
Wilson ordered the special SESSION last
April Congress was without the over
shadowing influence of any single
dominant issue, such as tariff or cur
rency reform, to be fought out to the
exclusion of other business.
As a result the work of the next
few months in national legislative
halls is expected to cover a wide
range of subjects. Antitrust legis-
lation remains as an important factor
in President Wilson's legislative pro-
ha CT hxrC l.
gress, but it will not displace other
important legislation, as did the bills
for tariff and currency revisions.
Four general subjects will embrace
much of the work of Senate and
House during the coming months.
They are:
Control of trusts and monopolies,
including legislation to prevent cold
storage manipulation, unfair price
cutting and other abuses directly af-
fecting retail business.
Rural credits and other legislation
directly affecting farmers and land
owners, such as good road improve
ment and federal aid to vocational
and agricultural education.
strengthening of the national de-
fense. through measures such as the
volunteer army BILL" already passed
by the House; the Hay bill to create
a new aviation division in the army;
the Padgett bill to put the naval
militia on war footing; the Hobson
bill for counsel of national defense,
and the general administration pro-
gram for two-battleship addition to
the navy.
Passage of the annual appropria-
ton bills, carrying more than $1,000,-
900 900 for support of the government
and containing many items of general
legislation that must be fought over
in House and Senate.
Aside from those general subjects.
Congress will take up early in the
session the settlement of labor prob
lens of far-reaching Importance.
Members of both Houses have an
nounced their plans to call for fed
eral investigation of the strike in the
Calumet copper mining region and
