WILL ACCEPT
RESIGNATION OF MALONE
New York Port Collector Quits
Job Because of Views
on Suffrage

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-President
Wilson will accept the resignation of
Dudley Field Malone, New York port
collector, who sacrificed his political
berth because he disagreed with the ex-
ecutive's suffrage position.
Malone, incensed at recent arrests OF
White House suffragist pickets and at
the fact that the suffrage amendment
had not passed, wrote the president he
could no longer continue a political re-
lationship of years standing. Previous
he had personally protested against the
first arrest of women pickets and was
conspicuous at their first trial.
Malone pointed out that in campaign
ing the west last fall he informed the
women that he would work to the ut
most for suffrage, and contended that
the present democratic program of let
ting the states decide is insufficient.
Mr.. Malone said today he would con-
tinue his duties here until relieved.
Il shall be at the customs house to-
day and shall continue my duties until
relieved by the presidents acceptance
of my resignation" he said. las soon
as 1 am free, l shall join my family in
the Adirondacks, where l hope to take
a six months rest"
Mr.. Malone added that he had mo
political bee in his bonnet"

$5,8OO,653 IS COST
OF CAMP GORDON:
$l46 PER CAPITA
Thirty-TWo CantonmentS and
Camps Involved Outlay in
Excess of SAL, 100000,
Change Contemplated
BY RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, Sept. detailed es-
Inmates of the cost of the several ma
tioual army camps and cantonments
were made public today, in the pub
lished hearing of the committee on
appropriations considering urgent de-
hciency expenditures in connection with
the war. The estimates show, among
other things, that the total cost of the
sixteen army cantonments is $1O2,0SS,-
SIS. The per capita cost based upon a
selected army of 644,54 men is $15S.
The total cost of the sixteen national
guard camps, including tentage, is $39,-
5000. and the per capita cost based
on 397249 federalized national guard
men, is 500.
The cost of the Camp Gordon canton
ment is well within the general aver
age, both as to the total Axpenditure and
the per capita investment. The estimates
place the cost of this cantonment at
So, 500, $50, and a per capita cost of s146
based upon the 39,975 soldiers it is ex-
rected to accommodate
The cost figures at Camp Gordon are
divided as follows: Barracks and quar-
tiers, S2,916, 500; water and sewers, ST.
I32.22s; regular supplies, 1867, 1925; roads,
walks and drainage, $404,50O; shooting
galleries and ranges. S125, 900 construc-
tion and repair of hospitals, sass. 400;
clothing and equipment, $4,000.
The total cost of the Camp Jackson
cantonment at Columbia, s. c.. is placed
at $6,311,71S, and the per capita cost is
1857, considerably higher than Camp
Gordon both as to the total and per
capita expenditures.
The national guard camps will accom-
modate fewer soldiers than the national
army cantonments. Tents, instead Of
buildings, will provide the shelter.
These facts account for the relatively
smaller cost of the camps.
The total cost Of Camp Wheeler, at
Macon, is $2.0sS,750, and the per capita
cost, based on 10000 soldiers, is $102.
Camp Hancock, at Augusta, is more
expensive, the cost being $2.693,750.
Camp Hancock, however, will accommo-
date 27,9S7 soldiers, so that the per
capita investment is only S96
The total cost of Camp Mcclellan, at
Admission, Ala. is $3.144.750 1t will ac-
commodate SS.7S7 men. at per capita
cost of 500.
Camp Sheridan, at Montgomery, cost
s2,574,75O for the accommodation Of
26,55S soldiers. The per capita cost is
$99.70.
Camp Sewer. at Greenville, S. c., cost
s2,SS6,7 $50; the per capita, based on
22.55S, is s101.
The cost of Camp Wadsworth, at
Spartanbufg, s. c.. is $3,234,750, and the
per capita investment is 500, based upon
the S4,913 men it will accommodate.
The war department contemplates
changing the camps into environments
at some future time 1t is estimated
the total cost of the change will approx
innate $74,000,OO0.

Seizure of Documents Dis
closes Conspiracy to Hamper
Governments War Plans in
Every Conceivable Way

WASHINGTON. Sept. Reports and
disclosures made to officials here in
connection with the seizure Wednesday
of l. W. W. documents throughout the
country indicate. il was said today, that
there has existed for some time a
nationwide conspiracy to hamper the
government in almost every conceiv-
able way in carrying on the war.
Opposition to the selective service
law. burning of crops. some of the So
called labor disturbances and attempts
to curtail production in war Industries.
reports indicate. were all part Of the
same alleged conspiracy. whose prime
motive was thought to be the Gripping
of the governments activities in every
way possible short of interference with
military and naval operations.
The investigation begun by the fed
eral grand jury at Chicago in connec-
ton with Wednesdays raid on 1. w. w.
offices will go into all phases of the
alleged conspiracy. Officials said that
Ii probably would be the most compre-
hensive investigation undertaken for
the government since this countrys en-
try into the war.
Tens of thousands Of letters, checks
and other documents. held by federal
authorities, will be placed before the
grand jury at Chicago or other grand
juries which later may investigate RAM
nIcations of the alleged conspir-
acy.
1t was Eliminated today that the gov
ernment's theory is that the alleged con-
spiracy was entered itno in Chicago.
although its operations extended to
virtually every section
In the light of reports made recent
" to officials here, the numerous
instances Of opposition at widely scat.
tered points TO the draft law were part
of the general alleged conspiracy, and
wer prompted by virtually the same set
of men in almost every instance.
Burning of wheat fields and attempts
to burn spruce forests in the Pacific
northwest. II was thought, were but
another phase of the alleged general
conspiracy directed by the the control
ling heads. Dozens of sporadic at.
tempts to cripple war industries by
strikes and acts of violence are regard
ed as a third phase Of the general alleg-
ed conspiracy.
Publications of articles designed to
create anti-war sentiment or anti-ally
sentiment. were a fourth phase, it is
thought. of the same general movement
Indications point. ii was said. to a
large group Of men. who. constituting
the executive force of the alleged con-
spiracy, directed all its activities
through many leutenants.
Department of justice officials said
today that the investigation probably
will be prolonged. United States At
