BY ellison Gardner.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., April II
President Wilson has not put
forth the influence of his office
to secure the confirmation OF
Louis ID. Brandeis as a justice Of
the U. S. supreme court. e
The matter has been permitted
to take its course in the senate
but it is presumed that rather
than see the nomination fail the
president will do what he can to
bring d, mocratic members into
line.
As a party matter It would
not look well just before cleo
tion for a senate with strong
democratic majority to be on
record as refusing the con-
firmation of a jew.
When the Jew also Is q
brilliant radical, It would
tend I'm addition to stamp the
party as Bourbon and reac-
tionary.
The nomination of Brandeis
has done more than anything else

Pershing Goes to
View Body Said to
Be Bandit Villas

SAN ANTONIO, April II.
Gen Pershing left for Cusi-
!. huirachic today to view the
body exhumed near there,
which the MeXicans claim Is
that of villa. .......
He should give Funston posi-
tive advices within few hours
unless the body is so decomposed
that It is unidentifiable.
According to telegram receiv-
ed last night by the war depart
ment, Villas body has been dug
up out of two-weeks' old grave
by Carlos Carranza, nephew of
Gen. CarranZa, and has been
brought to Cusihuirachic by an
escort of soldiers.
Mexican reports say that Villas
death resulted from the amputa-
ton of one of his legs which had
been wounded in fighting around
Gueroro.

The mountain is going to
get one of the warmest send
offs In its history at the
meeting tomorrow night i'm

Enthusiastically in favor of putting
men like Brandeis on the su
preme bench.
The prospect of a favOra-
BILE report from this commit.
tee is not a good one. About
all the friends of Brandeis
may hope for is a report OF
any sort that will place the
name of Brandeis before the
senate to be voted on by the
full membership, and even
then the lineup of the senate
is somewhat doubtful.
Much will depend on the
reaction OF public sentiment.
The senate is quite respon-
sive nowadays to public
opinion.
