II Is a topic OF never falling interest
in Washington. In senatorial and
congressional circles It Is, Of course,
almost the sole subject OF discussion,
but 1t is equally interesting to every
other class in the capital. Not the
least interesting phase OF It. as talked
OF here, is what the President thinks
Of the strenuous and effective effort
to oppose his will, after he has been
successful In forcing through many
acts. AS one clever scribe put IT.
1t must have been a shock to the
President to discover that, after all,
he is not "the cook and the captain

and the bos'n tight, and the midship-

biennial election last week at the
club house In New Hampshire avenue,

Senator Pomerene, president to sue

held that office for the last two years.
Mrs. Fletcher and the officers who
retire with her next month have had
a successful administration. One il
its most important achievements was
the construction of the handsome new
club house Of which the members took
possession last November. The Con.
gressional Club as a social center in

continually. It has solved many prob.

President TO tho sergeant.at-arms OF

Major James P. Jervey. of the gov.
eminent corps of engineers, formerly
in charge of the improvement work Of
the upper Ohio and stationed at
Wheeling, has been designated by the
government to secure information
with a view to ending the tangle
which has arisen over the erection Of
a monument to President Tyler. A
family disagreement delays the un-
yelling OF the Tyler shaft, and Gen.
oral Kingman, chief of the engineers
of the army has been called upon to
determine a rather delicate question.
Congress- appropriated $4,000 for the
monument which is to by erected to
mark the last resting place Of Presi.
dent Tyler In Hollywood cemetery,
Richmond, and charged the war de.
partment with all the details OF its
erection. That was two years ago
but the work has been delayed be.
cause Of a difference OF opinion among
the surviving relatives as to the in.
scription TO be placed o. the monu.
ment.
The dilema arises from the fact
that President Tyler was twice maj.
ried, first to Letitia Christian, who
died in the White House while he was
President, and subsequently to Julia
Gardner, who was his wife when he
died. and whose body was buried by
his side in Hollywood cemetery. The
inscription originally ordered placed
on the monument contained pelow
the name OF President Tyler the
name Of the wife whose body reposed
in the same lot. The surviving des.
cendents of the first wife have in.
sisted that the name Of Letitia.
Christian BIO placed on the monument
as well. Notwithstanding the fact that
her grave was elsewhere in the state.
After long delays the order has just
been issued either to have the names
of both wives inscribed or to have no
reference to eitier OF them on the
memorial, and Mai. Jervey. who is
supervising the erection OF; the nonu-
ment Is ordered to. make an imme-
diate report rs to whether It is nov
possible to add the name OF the first
wife to the approved inscription with
out affecting the general arrangement
thereof.

GERMANY RECEIVES NEWS OF ITALIAN ATTITUDE CALMLY Entrance of New Enemy Fails to Ruffle Berlin.
 Big Demonstrations
 in Vienna

Berlin. May 24-(Via London. 9:45 D. n1)
 No arrangements have been made for the
 departure of the Italian ambassador from
 Germany. The public learned of Italy
 declaration of war with remarkable calm
 ness and today seemed more bent on en-
 toying Whitsuntide holiday outings than
 worrying about the latest accession to the
 ranks of Austria-Hungary's enemies
 Street demonstrations took place late
 last night and small crowds paraded
 the streets at an early hour this morning
 singing patriotic songs and cheering for
 Austria Hungary. The paraders attempt
 ed to make a demonstration before the
 Italian embassy. but all approaches to
 the embassy had been closed by the
 police.
 What comment Is heard on the situation
 is not flattering to Italy. Her action in
 declaring war against her former ally is
 generally regarded by the populace as political brigandage."
 The average German declines to take the Italian military meance seriously and SccIilS tO COnblucT tfdt ltdiJ $ ODSlduSlt will merely put of the ultimate victory of the Teutonic allies without rendering vic- tory doubtful.
 In discussions of the official Italian explanation for the declaration of war the comment is heard everywhere that # took Italy long time to find out that the treaty of alliance had been violated, 1t being argued that Italy's note on this subject was dated in December. and tlht 1t required months longer to determine that the violation of the treaty constituted a reason for war.
 Big Street Demonstrations Dispatches from Vienna report that big street demonstrations in favor Of wal with Italy have taken place. The obser- vations of correspondent of the As
 sociated Press who spent the greate. part of the last two months travelling | iE Austria-Hungary were that a wal against Italy would be highly popular The feeling against the Russians in com. parison seemingly was not particularly bitter. The victory of the Austro-Ger mans in Galicia was received with satis. faction. mixed with bitter personal hatred l by the -Hungarians but 1t wal evident from the actions of the people that successful campaign against Italy would result in unbounded exulta I ton. The indications were tha' | the average Austro-H Hungarian woult be almost willing to foreee victory over Russia for the pleasur, 1 of punishing their country's former ally l for breaking with her.
 | Germany is whole heartedly on tn,
 side of her ally. The Italian militar' attache recently was summoned to Ger man headquarters and shown on a maj the location and strength of the Austro | German armies on the Italian frontier 1 so that his government should have n, reason to doubt that Germany would as 1 sist Austria-Hungary with every availabl' | man in case of war.
