WHITMAN DENIES
RILEY WILL QUIT
Says He Has Not Asked Prison
Head to Resign-Rumor
Insists He Will.
[From - Corrs.pond.nt d ne Trtbunel

Albany, July John B. Riley, Su-
perintendent of Prisons, whose official
head was to have fallen to-day, accord
ing 10 report last week, instead had a
two hours talk with Governor Whit
man and left the executive chamber
smiling. Nor did he issue any state
ment setting Warden Osborne right be-
fore the public, as it was reported the
Governor would compel him to do.
Governor Whitman could explain
away the mystery, but he didn't. In
stead he confined himself to carefully
chosen words TO the effect that he had
not asked Mr. Riley to resign yet.
And he added that it was not his in
tention Just veto ask Mr.. Riley for
his resignation.
The Governor said the greater part
of his talk with the prison superin-
tendent concerned affairs of the penal
institutions. He said he hoped soon
to see the housing of two prisoners in
a cell at Sing Sing end. To accomplish
this nearly 200 prisoners will be trans
ferred to Great Meadow Prison, where
there are 400 vacant cells.
81 did not resign" said Superinten-
dent Riley, smiling. 81 did not offer
to resign, nor was / asked to resign,
so why should | resign"
But those here who know say Mr..
Riley will resign and that Mr.. Whitman
will appoint William A. Orr, the Gov
ernors secretary, to his place.

DANIELS LETS TWO
CONSTRUCTORS GO
Action Toward Naval Officers
Prompted Purely by Desire
to Follow Custom.

Washington, July 14.-Secretary Dan
iels announced to-day that he had ac-
cepted the designations of Naval Con-
structors William B. Ferguson, jr., and
John E. Otterson. His action was
prompted, he said, only by a desire to
continue the custom of the department,
as Judge Advocate General Mclean
holds that the acceptance of naval Of
fcers' designations is not compulsory
The opinion of the judge advocate
general states that as no resignation
is effective until it has been accepted
by the President, the latter may com
pei any officer TO remain in the service
by refusing to accept his resignation.
"If one officer Of the navy has the
absolute right to have his resignation
accepted by the President" said Secre-
tary Daniels, then every other officer
of the navy has the same right. and
instead of the President being the com
mander in chief, as he is called by the
Constitution, he would be subject to
the will of every officer in the service,
the youngest of whom would be in a
position at any time to dictate the
terms and conditions on which he
would continue to serve.
an most cases the officers who de-
sire to resign are those who have been
educated at the expense of the gov
eminent and have been traind in spe-
cial lines of technical work which mt

'SCHOOLBOY PRANK
Fellow ToWnSman Defends Mel
son-Says Defendants Guilt
Has Not Yet Been Proved.
Inv TcleEr,ph 10 The Trlbune. J

Annapolis, July 14.-Arguments in
behalf of the seven original defendants
before the court of inquiry at the Naval
Academy were completed to-day. The
address Of Judge Advocate Walls will
probably be delivered Friday.
The first sneaker. Nathan p. Bush
nell. Of Peekskill. n. Y, argued specifi-
cally in behalf of Midshipman Ralph
Nelson, of that city, the only member
Of the last graduating class recon-
mended for dismissal for alleged i'm
proper help at examinations. In view
of his high scholarship and admitted
services to other midshipmen, Nelson is
the most interesting figure IN the pro-
ceedings. Mr.. Bushnell argued that the
government had failed to show. any
connection between the theft of the
papers and the defendants, or that the
papers necessarily indicated that they
were advance copies Of the eXamlna-
tions.
Mr.. Bushnell defended Nelson against
the charges that he had entered acad-
envy buildings without authority to find
his marks; that he had key which
would open some of the department
doors, and that he had taken some
turbine sheets" from the departments
without authority. He claimed that
"ragging marks" was a schoolboy prank
punishable only by the assignment Of a
few dement's, and that the key in Mel
sons possession was loaned him to get
into a room where he could use type
writer.
Representative Hay told the court
that Secretary Daniels had Informed
him his action would be based on the
findings of the court He paid high
compliment to the naval service and
said he was confident the standards OF
honor at the academy were as high as
those in any institution in the country.

DANIELS JOURNEYS
TO CONSULT EDISON
Won't Announce New Ma
val Advisers Until After
Conference.
IRON The Tribune Bure,u.l

Washington, July 14.-The person
mel Of the new naval advisory commit
tee will probably be determined on to-
morrow, when Secretary Daniels will
20 to the home Of Thomas A. Edison,
at Orange, n. j., to confer with the
new chairman.
IL is not expected that the eminent
inventors to be chosen at this confer
ence will decline, though the country
is not to reward them in material
way. Secretary Daniels will give. no
hint as to the makeup until the fnal
announcement is made.
The Secretary reiterated that the
committees duty would be purely Id
visory, consisting chiefly in determn-
ing the merits of ideas which at pres
ent cannot be thoroughly investigated.
During the early months, however,
the committee might be called on to
originate as we'll as criticise, the Secre-
tary said. The needs of the navy
would be brought up and the commit
tee asked to suggest means by which
inventive talent may be directed TO
naval problems.
The committee is not likely to hold
frequent meetings, as the individual
members will work separately in their
own respective fields.

Huerta and Angeles
Exchange Code Signals
Try Telegraph 70 The Tribune J


Fl paso. Tex. July Messages,
apparently simple friendly greetlngs,
were exchanged to-day by Former
President Huerta and General Feiipe
Angeles, Mexican leaders, who Tor
months have been political enemies.
General Angeles wired from San An
tonic: "My dear General Huerta; IL;
our republic live" In reply General
Huerta wired: MY dear General An,
geles: The Republic will always live"
That the messages were code ana con-
veyed definite information is the oplh-
len generally on the border to-day. ..
That they indicate a probable coall-
tion Of the Hucrta faction with that
norton Of the Villa faction repre-
sented by Angeles is also regarded as
a fact. Despite Villa claims OF victory,
i is well known here that Villa is be-
inc given very much the worst of the
fighting south Of Torreon, and he has
abandoned all efforts to secure peace
or 70 conform with the warning given
ia the Mexican chiefs by President
Wilson.
Villistas very frankly admit that
there ia now no chance for a peace con-
ference. Carranza will not consent to
deal with Villa or with his representa-
tiyes. and the only hope of the Villa
cause. it is generally believed. lies in
coalition with the old Cientitco party,
in which General Angeles formerly was
prominent. and which. it is now ad-
mitted. looks upon General Huerta as
its head.
Wins generals, or the greater por-
ton of them, are said to be thoroughly
discouraged and willing TO take up
new leader. ,,
This they are said to have told villa
in a round robin, and it is figured out
by border strategists that the Ange les-
Huerta messages indicate an under
standing which will mean the choosing
Of Angeles as the nominal head OF the
combined party to succeed the present
Convention or Villa groups.

Young Inventors Swamp
Daniels with Schemes

Washington, July 14.-0ne OF the
valuable by-products of Secretary Dan
iels's naval advisory scheme is the dis
covery Of a promising crop Of young in
ventors. Rural communities from coast
to coast have sent resolutions to the
department, recommending local ge-
muses. to assist Thomas A. Edison in
his task of rejUenating the sea-fght-
ing equipment.
Certain Representatives. seem TO have
the notion that appointments are to be
made to Annapolis, and have written
the Secretary proposing candidates.
As a sum of this advice, the Navy
Department has enough material for a
regiment Of advisory committees.

This department, as a rule is devot-

women, unwedded; in the vulgar par.
lance of every day speech, called ''old

and light-of scorn; in the finer lang

nominated "superfluous women. They
have been brave enough TO elect to
walk through life alone when some
man has asked them in marriage whom
they couldn't love. With white lips
they have said mo" while their hearts
have said yes" because duty demand
ed of them the sacrifice of their own
happiness. Their lives have been
stepping stones for advancement of
younger sisters; they have earned the
money to carry brothers through col
lege INTO professions; ike the carya-
tides of architecture, they stand in

guide gently down the hills of life,

They carry words OF cheer and n
