NEW YORK. Aug. 19.-The mutt
lated body Of Leo Frank rested In the
back room OF an undertaking estab-
lishment where It Is being made az
presentabIe as possible before being
taken to the home where his mother
and father waited. Sometime about
noon the parents expected to have the
BODY OF their son brought home. No
word to this effect was given out. but
the fact that arrangements were
made quietly for the presence Of .
number OF police officers At that time
made 1t seem certain.
No police guard was necessary
when the train bringing the corpse
reached the Pennsylvania station at
s:25, half an hour late. Aside from
a dozen officers and 40 many report
ers. Franks sister and her husband
Otto Stern were the only persons
waiting. The scene between Mrs.
Stern and Mrs. Leo Frank 40 the two
black gowned women met in the great,
almost empty concourse 1t the sta
ton tits real destination. tho I'M
Mrs. Frank were two attorneys who
had helped defend her husband and
two other friends.
The body was placed IA . motor
conveyance and headed for the Stern
home. 1872 Underhill avenue. 30 1t Was
announced for the purpose OF fore
stallfng interference or demonstra-
fion at its real destination, the I'M
deraking establishment. However. the
precaution appeared unnecessary,
since a few small boys formed the
only crowd about the Brooklyn home.

YOU'RE TOO OLD TO CRY"
GARRISON TELLS COLONEL

Secretary of War Garrison yester-
day added another statement to the
wordy passage which has developed
between him and the colonel since
the Plattsburg affair. With this ut
terance Secretary Garrison announced
that he would have nothing further
to say. He said:
The case is closed and the verdict
must stand. There is nothing in Mr..
Roosevslt's plea to reopen the case
that would make 1t proper to do so.
The personal and Official relations be-
tween Gen. Wood and myself concern
US and do not properly concern Mt.
Roosevelt. do not require Mr.. Roose-
velcs assistance to determine what
they are or should be. and I seriously
doubt II the general does.
The administration (outside of my
SELF has had nothing whatever to
do With this matter. and Mr.. Roose-
welt. therefore, could not have OBJ
tanned any authentic knowledge of the
views of the administration concerns
ing his speech or his conduct from
anything that I have said or done.

PRAEGER MADE SECOND
AID BURLESON
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

Mr.. Praeger now is down near the
mouth of the Potomac on fishing party.
He is expected to return tomorrow
morning. Mr.. Chance last night was at
his country residence at Kensington.
Postmaster General Burleson yester-
day expressed an appreciation of the
many years of valuable service which
Mr.. Stewart had given to the depart
ment and said that it was gratifying to
him that the Post Office Department
was to continue to receive the benefit
of Mr.. Stewards assistance in impor-
tant litigation now pending in courts
in which the department is interested.
Mr. Stewart is to be appointed a spe-
c:al assistant to the Attorney General
this week. and he probably will enter
upon his duties on Wednesday. AS an
official of the Department of Justice he
will assist IN the defense in the courts
of the suits brought on behalf of Ger
tain railroads to compel the governmea 1T
to readjust their pay for carrying the
mails and to make reparation. MCie
than SO, coo, 900 is involved in some of
these New England cases
As Second Assistant Postmaster Gen.
eral Mr. Stewart assisted the Depart
mcnt of Justice materially in cases IF
this character, recently winning one
which involved about $35. 900 900. He was
born in Kansas in 1853 and his legal resi-
dence still is in Kansas City. Hams. He
has been in the postal service for about
twenty years and always has been con-
nected with the transportation part. He
was assistant superintendent of railway
adjustments for a time and later Was
made law clerk for the department. He
then was made superintendent of rail
way adjustments and seven years ago
was appointed Second Assistant Post

HOPES u. S. WILL MOVE
AGAINST GREAT BRITAIN
CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.

The next step will be the settle.
ment of the Lusitania case. involving
the demands of this government for
disavowal and reparation. 1t is
known that Germany will not feel able
to disavow the sinking of the Lusi-
tania, inasmuch as she has already
pleaded justifica ton, but the belief
standing can be reached through a
statement that Germany had no IN
tention 10 kill Americans.
The third step will be the matter
of meeting the Presidents demands
for guarantees as to the future for
safeguarding the lives of Americans
on the high seas.
Most Important Demand.
This. of course, from a practical
standpoint. is the most important of
President wilson's demands. AL
though no communication has been
received from the Berlin foreign
office as yet disclosing the exact char
acter of the instructions issued to Ger
man submarine commanders, the State
Department has been given to under
stand informally that the instructions
forbade the commanding officers of
the German under-sea boats TO sink
passenger ships without warning or
without safeguarding the lives of
those on board.
In regard to the guarantees as to the
future. Germany-as the situation is I'M
derstood herewith probably be obliged
to take into consideration the sentiment
at home and the effect of such con-
cession upon that sentiment. There Is
good reason to believe that the German
guarantees are likely to take the form
of an order to submarine commanders
against attacking passenger vessels
pending further negotiations
This, according to the German view
point, would insure a more favorable re-
ception of the new policy in Germany
and would give the United States the
assurances which it has been seeking.
Negotiations" 1t was pointed out, might

R. HORRIBLE EXAMPLE"

Chicago, Aug. 2s.-William ]. Bryan, on
his way to winona Lake. Ind, stopped
long enough in Chicago today to criticise
Theodore Roosevelt for his speech at
Plattsburg, n. Y.
Mr.. Bryan indicated that he Colonel
might be useful as a horrible example.
He said:
1T is said to have been an ancient
custom for parents to teach their chill
dren the evils of intemperance by taking
before them persons in an intoxicated
condition.
1T Is possible Mr.. Roosevelt is serving
useful purpose in warning the people
of the effects which the doctrine of pre-
paredness may have on a man when he
gives himself up to it as a regular busi-

Much importance was attached here
to the information that Germany will
not attempt to lugg in the United
States controversy with Great Britain
as condition to her settlement of the
submarine controversy. Germany per-
haps realized that any such attempt
would be futile and would react upon
her. This government already has in

the British blockade are of course
erroneous. Germany has not submit.

In fact. nothing formal has yet been

full satisfaction in the case of the
Arabic if il turns out that q sub

until the Arabic case has been dis

KAISER CENsoRs THEIR SKIRTS.
Women should Wear Narrow Ones,
Germans Insist.

Berlin. via. Amsterdam. Aug. 2s-The
German government now is censoring
women's dress. A semi-official warning
has been issued, directed mainly against
wide skirts. because of the waste Of ma
terial.
The women of Germany. the warning
says, should free themselves from all
foreign styles, but should not do this at
the expense of material. At the moment
when all the resources of Germany
should be husbanded most carefully, the
women should not adopt new modes such
as wide skirts that will increase the use
Of goods
Narrow skirts were good in peace times
and patriotic women should be much
more satisfied with them in war times
