RECEIVER TAKES
CROCKER'S OFFICE
Judge Cecil n. MacMahon in
Formal Possession of Miss
ing Lawyers Effects.

Formal possession of the Office Of
Major Roland ID. Crocker, the absent
lawyer, was taken by Judge CeciFH.
MacMahon, as receiver, today Gus
tody of his effects will be held by
Judge MacMahon until further or
der from United States District Judge
Haight, who appointed him receiver
yesterday on a motion by John A..
Bernhard, counsel for number OF
creditors.
There has been considerable specu-
lation as to Major Crocker's where
abouts on the part of those who are
anxious to see him. Men who know
him best and who have recently come
in contact with him, have expressed
the opinion that he has either gone
to Mexicou or to Canada either to
enlist his services with one of the
Mexican armies or the allies.
Crocker, while in the National
Guard, attained considerable reputa-
ton as a. tactician, Throughout the
Mexican revolution and since the
opening of the present European war
he has spent a good deal Of his time
poring over maps and following the
campaigns of the various armies. He
has discussed the. battles. and their
probable result with any person who
would listen to him.
He frequently expressed q. desire
to engage in the European war, and
one man who met him last week de-
clares that he expressed wish that
he could leave his business and go to
Canada and enlist.
Mr.. Bernhard started. today to
make complete. investigation Of the
majors affairs, and devoted the en-
tire morning to an examination Of
papers and deeds. He said that he
expected to have a definite report to
make later today.

LAW PROv|DESFOR
MCCOY SUCCESSOR
Jersey Statute Of 1910 Gives
County Committee Authority
to Make Appointment.
Special to the Evening Star.


TRENTON, Oct. at has been
pointed out here, since the possibility
OF complications became apparent In
the choosing of another candidate for
the Democratic congressional nomi-
nation in the Ninth district to sue
ceed Walter l Mccoy, who has been
elevated to the bench of the supreme
Court of the District of Columbia,
that a section of the 1910 pamphlet
laws seems to provide for such q
situation as now exists in the Ninth
district.
This section provides that: I'm the
event of a vacancy occurring by
death, removal, resignation, or other
wise, in any office, the candidates
for which are required by law to be
nominated by petition and voted
upon at a primary election, which
vacancy shall occur prior to the gen.
eral election, but subsequent to the
day .fixed by law as the last day for
filing the appropriate petition, the
county committee, of the city or
municipal committee where the va
cancy affects only such city or muni-
cipaity, of each political party, Is
hereby authorized to select a candi-
date for the Office In question"
1t is pointed out that this section
applies to the choosing of candi-
date to succeed Mccoy because Of
the fact that it says any office"
The belief is also expressed that
the word Democrat" is not now pre-
empted as 1t was when Mccoy was
an active candidate for. re- election.
His retirement from the race Is
thought to have left the field free
for the use of the word again.
