BREAK in Cabinet
SECRETARY OF WAR GARRISON
TENDERS RESIGNATION,
WHICH IS ACCEPTED.

Washington, ID. c., Feb. 12.-Sec-
retary Lindley NJ Garrison resigned
because President Wilson would not
'irrevocably" support the continental
army plan and because he opposes
the Administrations program of set
ting a definite time for Philippine
independence.
President Wilson accepted the res
ignation and has not selected a sue
cessor. The president himself prob
ably will take personal charge of the
administration defense plans in con
gress.
Assistant Secretary Breckenridge
also resigned as a mark of loyalty 10
his chief, whose views he shared.
The president accepted his resigna-
ton. Both take effect Immediately.
Maj. Gen. Hugh l.. Scott chief of
staff of the army, automatically be
comes secretary of war ad interim.
1t is known that one of Secretary
Garrison's principal reasons for his
conviction that only a federal conti-
mental army, instead of a reorganized
National Guard, could be the main
military dependence of the nation
was his belief that some day the
United States may be called upon 10
defend the Monroe doctrine and in
that event he foresaw the National
Guard might not be available for use
outside of the United States before a
declaration of war.
Cause of the Break.
Upon the contention ON the one
hand, that the continental army or
ultimately universal service was the
nations only reliance, and on the po-
sition, on the other hand, that no one
plan could be enforced upon congress,
President Wilson and his secretary of
war parted official company.
Mr.. Garrison's resignation was a
complete surprise to official Wash
ington generally. He made no per
sonal explanation. Several hours be
fore the official announcement he
had boarded train with his wife for
New York, and word had been passed
at the department that he had gone
for an indefinite stay.
The acute differences Of opinion
which led to the break began early
i'm the year, when opposition 10 the
continental army plan began develop
ing in congress. There had been in
definite rumors of the possibility Of
the secretary of war leaving the cab
met, but they never were counter
anced in official quarters. The secre-
tary everywhere was regarded as one
of the strong men Of the administra-
ton upon whom the president leaned
in the difficult situation, both do
mestic and international, which have
marked his administration.

FEARED THROUGH LIFE
SHE'D Be BURIED ALIVE
Strange Provisions Made In
Will of Woman.

Los Angeles.-The will OF Mrs. Laura
Hemans White, who died In Pittsburgh
nearly year ago, has been received by
Public Administrator Bryson in view
of the distribution of the estate i'm Los
Angeles county. The city of Los An
geles desires to purchase property be
longing to the estate, at 1921 Downey
avenue, now North Broadway, for
school purposes.
Before the deal could be closed ii was
necessary to have the will. because a
clause bequeathes the property to Mrs.
Apollonia L. Melber for life After
Mrs. Melbers death the property is TO
go to Mrs Katherine L. Hahn, niece
Of Mrs. Melber and daughter of Victor
Hahn.
Because OF her fear OF premature
burial Mrs. White provided unusual
means to determine that the spark
of life had left her body before 1t was
cremated. In her will she declared:
"Having been all my life subject to
bondage through fear of premature
burial / will my body be kept until
evident signs of decomposition declare
themselves-at least "A week-that 1t
be visited and carefully inspected three
times daily, for which the person per
forming this Office shall, upon making
affidavit that 1t has been faithfully per
formed, receive the sum Of $50 Just
before cremation 1t shall be stabbed
three times through the heart by a
duly accredited physician, who shall
receive therefor the sum OF 500"
A trust provision prohibits distribu-
tion Of the estate for ten years. Among
the holdings are a Bakersfield ranch,
lots in San Diego and lots at Sunset
beach and La Canada park.
