Interest In Peace Move.

Everywhere interest was expressed
In President Wilson's move-and that
interest was always backed up with
the iteration and reiteration that such
a move would not have been made
without an intimation that IL was ac-
ceptable TO the warning nations.
But why take such step now,
when England and her allies consider
their victorious peace only a question

Sweet ANSWERS
hughes CHARGES
Challenges Republican Can
didates Statements on
Appointments.

Charles E Hughes speech in Detroit
yesterday drew fire from the administra-
ton today. They were taken up at the
Cabinet meeting and It was decided that
an official denial should be issued. Last
night Edwin F. Sweet, acting Secretary
of Commerce. made public letter to
Mr.. Hughes fatty contradicting the Re
publican pOminee.
Mr.. Hughes had charged that in the
Coast and Geodetic Survey IAN eminent
scientist was Displaced to make room
for an excellent stock breeder and veter-
mary surgeon" He also alleged that
April. 1916, about 1O4 persons were ap-
pointed to the survey without reference
to the civil service. some sixty-twO being
in opposition to advice of the Civil Service
Commission.
Mr., Sweet says: THE superintendent
of the Coast and Geodetic Survey. the
scientist to whom YOU refer, was not dis
placed. He told me that he had de-
termined to resign on account Of i'll
health.
You refer to f. Lester Jones, his sue
cessor, as stock breeder and veterinary
surgeon. At one time he had a farm
in Virginia, on which he raised stock. He
never was a veterinary surgeon. Before
his appointment he was deputy commits
sioner of fisheries.
As to your statement regarding the
civil service, you are equally misinfOrmed.
During the year to which you refer the
number OF appointments made on the
Coast and GeOdetic Survey has been far
short OF 1O4. The actual number is 80,
of which IS appointments were made with
the approval Of the Civil Service Commits
sion The remaining l. were for tenn
porary positions"
Administration advisers said tht Presi-
dent and other party leaders are anxious
to start the campaign and overcome the
effect OF Mr.. Hughes speeches. 1t was
said Mr.. Hughes is fast putting the Dem
oCTatiC party on the defensive.

dressed man walked intQ the Office Of DR..
John T. Connolly. city physician. of Bay

Doctor, can a chicken have infantile
paralysis"
The doctor looked puzzled and thea
smiled as the chicken was placed on mis-
desk for examination.
This chicken has been acting strangely
and I became curious" the visitor con-
tinued.
The city physician had been working
night and day tighting against the spread
of paralysis in BayOnne. and had answer
ed many foolish questions, but this one
was beyond him.
The expression Of the doctors face was
enough for his caller. for he seized the
chicken, threw it under his arm and
raced from the Office without waiting
for an answer.

John Neumeyer, recruit. went out with the
troops for the first time. and was assign
ed to a party that was supposed to go
out to a firing line and bring in the dead
and wounded. There are seven wounded
on that little hiIl,' said Mai Charles
r. Luce, "and three dead and four wound
ed over there" After the party had
started out. Neumyer turned toward one
'of the men and whispered. Il thought
those infantrymen could stand these sham
battles better than that"
The sanitary troops are getting excel
lent training in their field exercises With
an ambulance. and eight of the men
mounted, Maj. Luce and Capt. H. J.

York, Penn, May 26.-Fourteen
thousand dollars, principally in bank

deposit, were found in a paint buck

of the home of Mrs. William II.
Who'll, of this city, to-day when she
carried out instructions to her by
her husband prior to his tragic end
three weeks ago, when he was hit by
a Pennsylvania Railroad train and
decapitated.
Who'll was a house painter and
collector for the York Benevolent
Association, and recently told his
wife that, if he ever died suddenly,
she should go to a certain corner of
the cellar and dig.
Mrs. Who'll recalled these instruc-
tons to-day and she decided to as
certain what her husband had hid
den. Securing a pick and shovel she
went to the cellar and was astonsh-

The fear which is commonly found
Is not the kind which a layman
would expect. The soldiers do not
fear injury to themselves. They are
rather afraid of doing something
wrong-a fear on an emergency in
which one may fail or lose the conf
dence of his comrades. In one
case the patient was afraid to go to
sleep for fear he would not awake.
One man who had no fear Of being
wounded, had a wild desire to get
away from the din of battle and
seemed really afraid of the noise.
Blindness and deafness are fire.
quently found, but one of the most
unusual in this connection Is the
presence of photophobia-the fear of
looking. In many instances men
are found who complain that they
cannot see. In such instances, when
their eyes are opened for them, they
can see without any difficulty. One
instance of this came as the result
of trench dream, in which the SOL
der again lived through his burial
by mine explosion four weeks be-
fore. When he awoke he complain
ed that he could not see, and imag-
ined that his sight had been lost as
a result of the explosion. When the
eyelids were raised he could see as
well as ever.
