came after Thompson had insisteO
that an inquiry proceed after ne had
been warned that to do so might in
volve the federal government in
grave international complications, as
ISOLATED by Mitchell with NUM-
tons contracts. Thompson said the
government was not involved and he
was supported by District Attorney

No Intention To Change
Commission Form. Says
Levey.
OPPOSITION MAKES
THAT AN ISSUE
Only the Peoples Vote Can
Change It, Not the
Charter Board.

''There has never been any proposal
to change the present form of gov
ernment," said C. ]. Levey, Home
Rule candidate for the charter board,
when shown an interview of an oppo-
sition candidate seeking to make that
an issue in the campaign Personal
~" continued Mr.. Levey, 81 am in
favor of our commission form Of gov

of the men who announced several
weeks ago, is agaist the commission

That an opposition to the Home
Rulers is contemplated, was shown
yesterday when six candidates quail
fled. They are DIR. Lemuel CoIson,
dentist; Jos. Brown, assistant IN tax
collectors office; Manuel Gonzalez Fl.
Muller, Jr., Capt. Chas. P. Bell and
A. NJ. Avery, Jr.
Other names are mentioned for the
slate, but the information is not con-
firmed. Frank x. Carroll, city license
inspector, stated to The Journal last
night that there was no foundation
to the report that he intended being
candidate. His official duties would
prevent, even If his inclinations lay
that way.
It is stated that the opposition
ticket win be completed today, which
is the last day for qualifying, and the
clerks Office will remain open until
5 o'clock Tor that purpose.
The Home Rulers who have quail
fled are:
W. L. Meyer, Jno. Fl. Christie, W. r.

The charter board, for which the
election will be held, was created by
the Farris home rule bill. It will
have no authority to change the char
ter or interfere in the management
of city affairs, but will be empowered
only to submit proposed changes Of
notifications to the people to decide
by vote, when the new measures vii
go into effect, without the delay Of

Ne York, May 19.-In the trial of
DIR. Arthur Warren Waite on charge

The district attorney says he will

the fashionable Plaza where she says
they studied dramatic art and Ian
guages, will be an important link in
the chain of evidence.
She will be asked to tell if she
knows about t4p DR. Waffs rs Baic6
to have made Cornell medical
school for cuitu u of the germs 81
several deadly edfseases, at time
when he was not practicing his pro-
fession.
Mrs. Horton, whose husband has
described her as "an innocent dove
among crows" was formerly caba-
ret singer in Cincinnati. She married
Horton, went 20 New York and nursed
an ambition to become dramatic
star.
Waite has made strange statements
and his counsel may seek to prove
he was insane.
One of his strangest stories is that
he is bounded by mysterious and
evil '1ittle man from Egypt" who
prompts him to do things against his
will.

REPUBLICANS PLAN
TO CUT SPEECHES

Chicago, May 19.-With at least
sixteen names to be presented to the
Republican national convention for
consideration as presidential nomi-
nees, it became known today that a
move is on foot to limit the time
speakers may consume IL making
nominating and speeches.
Friday, June has been decided
upon tentatively as the day upon
which nominating speeches will be
made and il is feared that if those
presenting candidates are not limited,
the speech-making will continue at
such length as to defeat the plans of
leaders to have the convention COM
plete its wolk In four dayc.

Officials Confident Congress
Will Add to the Com
mittee's Plans.
LEADER KITCHEN
WILL FAVOR BILL
Dreadnaughts Are Needed
and 5-Year Program
Necessary.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

=
Washington, May 19.-Administra-
ton officials were confident today that
congress would provide satisfactory
naval building program, despite the
fact that the house naval committee
in its agreement yesterday abandoned
the five-year program as recommend
ed by President Wilson and Secretary
Daniels.
Officials were particularly disap-
pointed at the action of the commit
tee in providing for all battle cruis-
ers, as they believe that some dread
naughts are necessary.
1t was generally understood that
congress would be pressed for pro-
gram that would include at least two
dreadnaughts, together with four bat
tie cruisers.
Formal announcement by Majority
Leader Kitchin that he would not OPP
pose the program as provided for in
the naval appropriation bill complet-
ed by the committee yesterday is con-
sidered significant, in view of the
fact that he has been opposed to the
administrations preparedness meas
ures. Mr.. Kitchin declared that the
bill is satisfactory to him and that he
might make speech in favor of it.
It was regarded as likely today that
the bin would be taken IT'D for con-
sideration in the house next week, al
though some of the leaders do not
look for vote on the measure prior
to the national conventions.
