FRICTION IN THE CABINET
OVER BOMB
Continued from First Page.

can defendants will bring to light only
one OF seven or eight different lines OF
INVESTIGATION now being carried on by
the Federal Government. II became
more evident yesterday In view Of the
tremendous activity now going on among
the agents Of the Department OF Justice
mat other representatives OF the Central
overs equal in Importance almost to
Capt. Boy-Ed are under fire. The
made by Dr. Joseph Goricar, the
ex-Austro-Hungarian Consul, bore on
Capt. Boy-Ed, Capt. Won Papen and Dr.
Won Suber. Austro-H Hungarian
Consul In this city.
Since DR.. Goricar has come to the at
tention OF the United states Government
he has been under the guard of Federal
agents. 1t was learned yesterday thai
the German and Austrian agents have
madt every enort to get him away from
the Federal Government or at least to
prevent him from adding to the dis
closures he already has made.
But In addition to the activities Of the
Consuls there have been under further
investigation this last week the activi-
ties Of Andrew d. Meloy and Franz
Rintelen. already indicted. a third In
dictment is reported to have been re-
turned In connection with that case and
1t has been sealed pending developments
next week..
Rintelen's activities In this country
have been wrapped In greater mystery
than that Of any other man. He In said
tn be a man OF great wealth. social
standing and ability In Germany who
was sent here to carry on a certain work.
and who was caught by England when
he was trying to return to Germany.
Should Rintelen be returned to this coun-
try. as he authorities In Washington
have requested. II In likely that there
will he still more extensive revelations
concerning Germany's acts in this
try.

WILKINSON NOW STEPS
OUT OF CRUCIBLE STEEL
Director Who Denied Enormous Profits From War Con.
tracts as Stock Advanced Resigns From Board
&. Action Expected in Wall Street.

That Horace 8. wilkinson Of Syracuse
resigned AZ a director Of the Crucible
Steel Company at a meeting Of h di-
rectors held last Tuesday in Pittsburg
became known Yesterday at the annual
meeting Of the company In Jersey City.
No statement was made as TO the
reasons for Mr.. Wilkinson's action. but
Wall street Immediately connected Il
with the statement issued by Mr.. Will
kinson from his home In Syracuse last
July when Crucible was rushing upward
In the van Of the war brides" and the
Street was filled with rumors about it's
tremendous war orders and the prospec-
tive value Of Crucible common.
TIL statement made by Mr.. Wilkinson
was designed to chill the ardor Of those
boosting the stock. He insisted that
there was no reason why It should pay
dividends for some years to come n
that there was nothing to warrant the
price II was selling at. Instead OF re-
acting. however. the stock. after stag
gering II bit. scared steadily upward
until In September IL had reached 109,
az compared with Is. Its price a May.
Expected Ia See Hin Retire.
Rumor has had IL since then that Mr..
Wilkinson was not as popular with his
colleagues as he had been. and that It
was only a question Of time before he
would be forced out. The company'a
recent statement showing net profts for
the year OF S3.073.000 has been regarded
by some az vindicating Mr.. Wilkinson.
In the same report Chairman Herbert
DePuy placed the war orders actually
received at 317. 900 900. which was much
less than was reported last summer.
Mr.. Wilkinson was not present at yes
terday's stockholders meeting. He had
two more years to serve as director.
r. l.. French of Syracuse was elected to
succeed him at the meeting in PittsbNrR.
Mr.. Wilkinson owned 400 shares of the
company's preferred stock. IL was re-
ported that he had lately disposed Of
his holdings at a very large profit.
A furry was caused at the meeting
by the attempt Of Harry G. Eldridge to
get himself elected az an opposition
member OF the board Of directors. Mr.
Eldridge. whose office IL with William
Il. Beekman & Co. appeared with his
counsel. =. S,anwood Menken. n de-
manded a New York representative on
the board In the person Of himself. Al
