san Francisco, Aug. lS.-Two rival
,olitical leaders who ordinarily spend
rost Of their waking hours mapping
ant campaigns against each other to-
night sat side by side in an automo-
lille. chatted about the weather, the
crops and the prospects of electing
Charles Z. Hughes to the Presidency
Of the United States.
This fact is set down, first. because
!, shows. better than mere words, what
Hughes diplomacy has accomplished in
this strife-ridden state within the
brief period Of six hours. Progress
siye and Republican leaders who yes
,erdsy insisted that nothing would
bring them together nave condescend-
% "a sit at the same table and ar
range plans for working together. And
All through the benign influence OF
the Hughes smile.
This does not indicate that war be
tween the two factions in this state has
been ended, however. The calm that
perysdes the political atmosphere here
is due TO a truce Only-a truce that
may be broken at any moment. But
The prospects are that il will be OBJ
served until the last car of the Hughes
special train crosses the boundary line
into Nevada next Wednesday.
Took Neither Side.
The two men who bowed to the
Hughes persOnality here this evening
are Chester II. Rowell, Progressive
member Of the Hughes campaign COM
mittee here, and Francis B. Keesling,
chairman Of the Republican State Cen
trial Committee. The programme out
lined BY Keesling and w. II. Croker,
national committeeman here, provided
that Rowell and other Progressive
leaders were to have walked TO the
Hughes meeting, founo such seats as
they might in the scramble, and make
themselves generally scarce.
Mr. Hughes, though, had different
plans.
Officially he took no part in the local
struggle, in which Republican leaders
have announced they would wipe out
the Progressive party for all time.
However, he refused TO permit anybody
TO manipulate his affairs in such a
manner as 10 aid either faction. The
result was that the truce. which may
lave farreaching effects on the Hughes
campaign. was brought about, just as 1t
vas between the Ickes and Thompson
factions in Illinois.

MOOSE LEADER HITS G. 0. P.
Says Republicans Seek ito Steal Pro-
Rressiye Emblem"

John ]. WConnell, chairman Of the
Progressive County Committee. issued
a statement last night in which he al
legged that the Republicans were try
ing to "steal the Progressive emblem
on the ballot" in circulating petitions
for the nomination of Governor Whit

Mr.. O'Connell declared that some OF
the petitions were being circ>.ated
among the Progressives by William
H Hotchkiss. William Hamlin Childs
and Horace s. Wilkinson, all active
Progressives until after the Chicago
convention. He referred to these men
as renegade Progressives," who were
playing the role of political stool
pigeons" and political secondstory
men" for the Republicans.

STIELOW CASE
WITNESS LOST
Wife Can't Solve Mystery
of Frank MOntondO's
Disappearance.
rRv Telegraph to The Tribune

Albion, N. Y, Aug. 18.-Frank Mon
tondo. an important witness in the
Charles D. Phelps murder case. was re-
ported strangely missing to-day. Mon
tondo is proprietor of the hotel in
Knowlesville at which Erwin King, who
recently confessed to the murder OF
Phelps and his housekeeper, stayed for
week prior to the crime.
John c. Knickerbocker, District At
torney of Orleans County. secured the
conviction of Charles F. Stielow for the
murder, and it was after he took
charge of King last week that the lat
ter retracted his confession. Since
then the District Attorney and detec'
tiyes in the employ Of the county have
been trying to bolster the reputation
by establishing an abb for the man
who confessed the crime.
Montondo Couldn't Remember.
Montondo was seen repeatedly by the
detectives, who tried to get MIN 70
make an affidavit that King was in the
hotel the entire evening of the muir
der and went to bed at 10 o'clock. Mon
tondo told them he could not remem-
Der. 4.
Efforts have continued, however, to
refresh Montondo's memory, and II was
feared tonight that drastic metnods
had been used. His disappearance be-
came known to-day, when Mrs. Mon
tondo came to Albion in search OF her
husband. She said she lad not seen
him since last Tuesday, when ne was
with her in Medina, few miles from
Knowlesville.
Mrs. Montondo pleaded with the de-
tectives to let him return home: Ihey
said they did not know where ne was
She also enlisted the aid OF David A
White. the lawyer who is Leading tne
fight to save Stielow from the electric
chair. She declared that, like her nus
band. she was unable TO recall seeing
King the night of the murder. She re-
fused to make an affidavit, however
might object, and do her harm.
Hint at New Arrest.
Representatives of the prosecutor
Office. with the detectives employed last
year by the county to get evidence
against Stielow, were in Medina to-day
10 obtain confederation of Kings latest
statement repudiating his confession.
The detectives said they had evidence
which might result in an arrest within
twenty-four hours. II was asserted
that a warrant had been issued by II.
C. Tucker, justice of the peace in Al
bion, but Tucker declined to confirm
the report.

dates Business Mems

NOTED REPUBLICANS

Original Directors Refused
to Serve and Others Were
Substituted.

II you have not already sent a check,
to help the cause along, TO the Ma
tional Business Mems Republican Com
mittee. or the Business Mems Repub-
lican Publication Board, as it was more
recently known, chairman Wilcox asks
that you not do it, A good many prom
inent business men in various parts
of the country have contributed, it was
said, and now may regret it. Mr.. Will
cox, who is at the head of the Repub-
lican National Committee, in view o.
recent complaints, denounced the or
ganization yesterday as having no con-
nection whatever with the National
Committee, or any authorization to col
lect funds for the Hughes campaign.
The organization has an Office at %
West Forty-ffth Street. 1t was incor-
porated on June 10, the day before Mr..
Hughes was nominated. An imposing
list of prominent Republicans appeared
on its letterhead as members. Most of
these have since repudiated IT.
Immediately after its organization
the committee began sending out let
tiers to Republicans all over the coun-
try, asking for contributions. These
letters bore the name of Jules ).
Bache, of New York, as chairman, an
Bond Thomas, as. assistant treasurer,
both of whom resigned when they
found out that the committee was not
authorized by the National Committee.
Several prominent Republicans are
known to have contributed 5000 TO s25C
each under the impression that the
money went to the Republican National
Committee.
Big Names on List.
Charles A. Schieren, of Brooklyn,
sent 5000, which was returned on his
demand. George Eastman, of Roch-
ester, sent $3.50, and it is not known
whether his money was returned. The
names of Mr.. Schieren and Mr.. East
man appeared on the original letter
heads with Mr.. Bache. Others who
were listed as directors were: A. I.
Estabrook, Boston; Adolph Lewisohn,
New York; Hugh Chalmers, Detroit;
II. c. Brewster, Rochester; Colonel
Austin Colgate. New Jersey; Frank
Tilford, New York, and several OF
Pittsburgh's wealthy business men.
Complaints were made to Chairman
Wilcox about the representations made
by the solicitors of the organization.
conveying the impression that they rep
resented or had relations with the ma
tional committee. Mr.. Wilcox insisted
that the name Of the organization be
changed, and this was done on August
l. Mr.. Wilcox had communicated with
most of the alleged directors of the
original COMMITTEE" and they with
drew.
An entirely new list of directors APP
peared on the letterheads when the
