GLEN COVE, N. Y. July s. Efforts
are being made here and in several
other cities today to clear up the mys-
terry said to surround the identity of
Frank Holt, who on Saturday attempt
ed to assassinate J. =. Morgan.
One Of the important questions which
they had to solve was that raised by
the police Of Cam bridge, Mass, regard
ing the possible Identification of Holt
instructor. This the prisoner denies.
Does Not Think Holt Is Muenter.
Charles I. Wood, assistant district at
torney of Nassau county, who was in
Harvard University while Muenter was
there, went to see Holt in his cell.
Holt reiterated to MIR. Wood his denial
that he was Muenter. and MIR. Wood
afterward said that although Holt bore
a strong resemblance to Muenter, he
did not think he was the same man.
Muenter disappeared from Harvard
University after his wife had died, it
was charged, of poisoning. He was
never found. Former acquaintances of
Muenter in Chicago have asserted that
pictures of Holt showed marked re-
semblance to the man they knew as
Muenter. These pictures of Holt. taken
after the shooting of Mr.. Morgan,
showed him with a bandage over his
head and this. it was said. somewhat
handicapped their efforts to identify
him positively.
There were also, 1t was said, many
striking similarities in the known his
tory of Holt and that of Muenter. and,
in addition, many points yet to be told
the police about Hollis life. One of
these points, it was said, related to
Hollis whereabouts in 1906, the year of
the alleged murder.
Questioned by Sheriff.
Sheriff Grifenhagen today questioned
Holt closely as to this. When Holt
answered it was to deny vigorously
and emphatically that he was Erich
Muenter. He did not know Muenter he
said. and had nothing to do with the
murder of Mrs. Muenter.
Where were you in 1862" Sherin
repeat the question several times.
Holt made him repeat the question
several times again before replying.
When he did answer he spoke in a
husky whisper and as If in daze.
Il don't remember he said.
Seeks His Birthplace.
It became known today that United
States secret service men are following
the leads opened to them by Holt's
stories of Saturday and yesterday.
Every city he had mentioned in the
recital of his history. it was said, was
to be visited and countrywide search
was to be made to determine where
Holt was born and where and how he
spent his entire life. This investiga-
tion, 1t was said, was already under
way.
Two promising leads, it was said. had

IF we grasp the situation Germany

the war What of the way 20 lose II?
The best way TO lose the war would be
TO 20 on as we are, or at least TO con-
tinue the temper and method which
prevailed with the British government
up 70 fortnight ago. In that case we
should have allowed the censorship
with good intentions to deceive our
own country, not the enemy.
THE country would still have been
deceived both as TO the military and
diplomatic position. We would have
been aroused too late 10 the magnitude
of our task and TO the vital necessity
of powerful action IN the Balkans. A
steady weakening of our own govern
ment in our own estimation and in that
Of all other nations would have para
lyzed our own indomitable vigor and
sapped popular confidence among u.s."

not hide its indignation with the louhg
Turk committee. At d recent meeting
of Ulemas. presided over by the Shleh-
ul-Isam, violent speeches were deliV-
cred against the Free Masons," as the
Mussulmans describe the members OF
the committee. who were denounced as
the artisans Of the ruin of the en-
pire.
Clergy Against Enver Pacha.
The clergy is particularly excited
against Enver Pacha for his arbitrary
enrolment in the army of the pupils
of the medresses religious semi
raries) Ii was even proposed thai the
clergy should launch solemn an
athena against the members OF the
committee. IL was on leaving this
meeting that the Sheik-ul-lslam went
TO hand in his resignation to the Sui
tan.
The influence of the Ulemas on the
Mussulman population is immense.
This the government knows from past
experience. II is therefore trying to
conciliate them and to prevent the cut
ward signs of popular discomfort which
manifest themselves in unmlsiakable
fashion.
few days ago the inhabitants Of
ten quarters of Faith decided after lis
cussion to invade the Cheir-emaneli (the
Central Town Hall of Constantinople)
to demand bread and the dismissal Of
the Governor. Ismet Bey. The gov
eminent was warned of this, but did
rot dare to take any repressive meas
ures. Contrary to custom, it made no
arrests, although the names of the
leaders were known to everybody. Nor
did il even find courage to threaten.
On the contrary, il dispatched several
hodias and members Of the committee
to promise that everything would be
put right in two or three days. At the
same time the committee announced
through the press that the Minister Of
Finance would advance to the munich
palty 100000 Turkish pounds at per
cent TO purchase a stock of grain and
flour. and thus assure the provisioning
OF the city.
There is no doubt that the position
Of Enver Pacha and his supporters is
becoming more and more precarious
every day. Unless the central powers
can march an army TO the relief Of
Constantlnople the Young Turk com
mittee Will succumb either TO the at

Rickerts, German fisherman residing

S500,000,O00 for Defence.

Secretary Daniels has deferred the
announcement OF his figures until next
week. His five-year programme, how
ever, will call for an expenditure Of
500.000,00 for construction, to be as
evenly distributed as possible. Naval
officers generally are pleased with the
programme, but regret the increase in
personnel is so small. The Secretary
will ask for only 5000 more men.
A high official Of the departm0 said
to-day, however, that similar increases
would doubtless be asked for in each of
the five years, making a total increase
Of 10000 men. The total Of enlisted
men in the navy would thus be raised
to nearly 100000, which is regarded as
adequate.
Employers throughout the United
States corporations, manufacturers,
professional men, tradesmen and bust
ness men of all classes are 10 be asked
TO contribute. as their share in the ma
tlonal defence. permission for their en-
ployes 70 engage without serious finan-
cial loss in two months military train
ing during each of three years.
Administration officials are confident
that even though it is proposed to
enlist only $4,000 men year in the
Continentals, or total of nearly $780,
900 in the first six-year period more
than that number would be attracted
by the outdoor life of a military camp
if they could be assured by their en-
ployers that their positions would not
be lost or their earnings seriously
decreased.
Added details Of the navy plans be-
came known tonight. The fve-year
programme includes, besides the ten
dreadnoughts and six battle cruisers,
So coast submarines, Is sea-going sub
marines, 80 destroyers. 3 scout cruisers
and gunboats. Two dreadnoughts
will be built this year Two battle
cruisers will be built the first year,
one the third year. two the fourth year
and one the fifth year.

Salonica, Oct. 5.-Salonica was the
cradle Of the Young Turk movement,
and it was from this city that the army
of Mahmud Chefket Pacha set out to
overthrow the regime of Abdul Hamid
1t was here, too, that the consplrators'
after the success Of their coup detat,
informed the ex-Sultan. Abdul Hamid
was kept a prisoner in the Villa Allo-
tina, at the southern extremity of the
Bav Of Salonica, until the entry of the
victorious army Of Greece caused the
Young Turks TO transfer him to Con-
stantinopie.
The Young Turk party recruited its
leaders from the sect known as the
Deumne Turkish for "convertD,
small but powerful group of Jews con-
verted to Mahometanism. This sect. Of
which david Pacha, the present Turk
ish Minister of Finance. was the lead
inc spirit, does not conform entirely TO
the rites Of Islam, but has grated the
Mahometan ritual on the Jewish one in
a fashion that renders this sect dis
tinct from all others IN Turkey. As
Salonica has a Jewish population oil
10000, the Deumne possessed immense
influence. especially from a financial
point of view.
Salonica Gets All News.
Even after the annexation of Salon
lea by Greece this sect still continued
to exist as subjects of King Constan-
tine. | do not know TO what extent
they desire return OF the Turkish
regime, but one thing is certain-they
