WILSON ISSUES A DENIAL
President Hasn't Taken Sides in Riggs
National Bank Controversy

Washington, April 24.-At the
White House to-day statement was
issued by Secretary Tumulty denying
reports that President Wilson had ia.
ken personal charge of the govern.
ment's side Of the controversy between
the Riggs National bank and Secretary
McAdoo and Comptroller Williams
This was the statement:
"There is not a thread of truth in
the stories in the morning papers that
the President has personally taken over
the investigation of the Riggs bank. y
1t was said that the President had
consulted Attorney General Gregory
and Louis D. Brandeis, as special coun.
sci, to keep himself informed. The
bank has brought an injunction suit
against Secretary McAdoo and Comp
troller Williams, alleging that they con
spired to wreck it because of personal
animosities for its officers.

CREW or THE SUNKEN EMDEN
ESCAPES The Second TIME

Berlin, via Wireless to London,
April 2S, sos A. M.-The crew of the
German warship Ayasha, composed of
men who escaped when the cruiser
Emden was sunk by an Australian war
ship in. the Indian ocean November
10, have escaped again from allied
patrol ships and arrived at the Ara.
bian harbor of Lidd on March "a.
They covered by sea the 500 miles
from Hodeida to Lidd.
After reaching the coast the sailors
attempted to continue their journey
overland but were attacked by Arabs,
supposedly at the instigation of the
English. After three days stubborn
fighting the attacks were repulsed and
they reached the road to Hodaehas,
where. the railway was open. The Ger
mans suffered heavy losses.
The bold exploits of this remnant
of the Emden's crew have constituted
one of the most dramatic episodes of
the war. The men were members of a
landing party which was on Cocos Is
land when the battle occurred between
the Australian cruiser Sydney, and
the Emden in which the German
cruiser was sunk.
Under the leadership of Lieut. Won
Muecke, the landing party comman-
deered the schooner Ayasha and sailed
away. Since that time there have been
many conflicting reports regarding
their activities. Manila heard that
they had captured collier on which
they had mounted two maxim guns
and had been making raids on French
commerce. The French ministry of
marine announced on December IS,
that the auxiliary cruiser, Empress of
Japan, had captured the collier with
the men on board.
A Berlin dispatch on February s,
however, said the Ayasha had reached
Hodeida, Arabia, where the crew was
given an enthusiastic welcome by the
Turkish troops.
The port referred to in the Berlin
dispatch to London, to-day as Lidd
may be Jidda on the Red Sea coast of
Arabia. The ultimate destination Of
the escaped prisoners is matter of
speculation.

established in trenches. A German
steamer was sunk and two men in a
Turkish fort were killed by bombs
dropped from the aeroplanes.
The sailing vessel Ayasha, manned
by Germans who escaped when the
famous cruiser Emden was sunk in the
Indian Ocean last November, is said
to have reached the Arabian harbor of
Lidd from Hodeida. The Germans
made their way inland and succeeded
in reaching the railroad although at
tackled by Arabs and suffering severe
losses in three days of fighting.
A series of German successes along
the western front Is announced In to-
days official report from Berlin. It
is said attempts Of the allies to recap
ture the ground lost In Belgium have
failed and that French and British at
tacks broke down under the German
fire. The statement reports the cap
ture Of another town near Tyres and
says that in the fighting in this region
nearly 1880 prisoners, 35 pieces Of
cannon and large amounts of rifles and
ammunition were captured. At other
points where fighting occurred yester-
day it is said the Germans either rout-
ed attacking forces or themselves
made progress.
The French War Office report gives
a different version Of the situation in
Belgium. From this statement it would
appear that the German advance had
been halted. The allies have recap
tured part Of the lost ground, it is
said, and are well organized and fight
ing under good conditions.
The advance Of the Germans Is as
cribed by the French War Office to the
use Of bombs developing gas which
asphyxiated the men In the trenches.
80 far as indicated by the news
from the front, there is no change in
the eastern campaign.
The freighter Ruth has been sunk
in the North sea by German subma-
rtne. Her crew Of 10 was saved.

MORE QUESTIONS FOR teddy
Barnes LawyA Takes Advantage of
Court Recess By Searching For
Quizzing Dope
By Associated Press.

Syracuse, N. Y, April 24.-Counsel
for Mr.. Barnes in his suit for alleged
libel against Theodore Roosevelt, took
advantage of the weekend recess of
the Supreme Court to-day to compile
series of additional questions to put
to the former President when his
eross-examination is resumed on Mon.
day. Many of the questions agreed
upon have to do with events leading
to the establishment by the colonel of
the Progressive party.
William NJ. WINS, chief counsel for
Mr.. Barnes, said he expected to finish
with Colonel Roosevelt some time
Monday. The colonel will then give
additional testimony on redirect ex-
animation. This may keep him on the
stand until Tuesday.
The Roosevelt attorneys received
information that all members of the
Legislature who voted against the
Hughes direct primary bill and other
measures cited by Colonel Roosevelt
as instances where machine Democrats
and machine Republicans combined to
defeat legislation he considered good,
were to be subpoenaed. By these wit
nesses, the plaintiff, it is said, hopes
to prove that their action was vol
untary and that they were not forced
into alliances by party leaders.
The lawyers for the defence were
prepared to-day to ask Justice An
drews for body executions for wit
nesses who have been summoned but
who have failed to put in an appear
ance. Among them are State Comp
troller Travis, former State Senator
William J. Grattan, Luther C. Warner,
