FUNSTON FINISHES
 TROOPS INSPECTION
[Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

FIELD 1EADQ ARTERS PUNl- TIVE EXPEDITION. Mexico, Jan. 16. General Funston returned to Colonia Dublan from Fl Nalle tonight, thus completing the inspection of l15 mile line of communication and the review of some 10000 men.
 The experience is surprising" Gem eral Funston stated, for until now did not fully realize the responsibility of the officers and men of the ~,xpedi- tion And l do not believe that the American people fully appreciate what d job this expedition has had and how well it has carried out it's orders
 General Funston praised highly the expeditionary soldiers, their efficiency, equipment and splendid physical con dition. The amount of road work per formed, the establishment of commun- icatlons and keeping them open, motor truck transportation, the creation of pure water supplies and the care taken in d sanitary wa he said, had im- pressed him greatly.
 Speaking of general conditions in Mexico, General Funston said;
 Reports reaching US from all sources seem to indicate that condi- tions in the part of Mexico adjacent to the United States are better than they have been for some time"
 Neither General Funston nor General Pershing would make any statement in regard to withdrawal than that they did not possess any knowledge on the subject.
 The opinion is freely expressed un- officially by line officers and men that the retirement will begin within ten days.

Crocker was notoriously 'respon- sible' for the loss of California. it asserts. Sam Perkins. by his short sighted management of affairs lost Washington, while Mir Estabrook by his ignoring of the progressive voters of New Hampshire sacrificed that state"
 The executive committee of the ra- publican national committee was hand picked by Murray Crane of Massa- chusetts" the statement asserts, and from the day of it's appointment ne mas conniv-d secretly in every possible way Ito keep the party machinery in the hands of himself, Hemenway. Barnes, Crocker, Sam Perkins and
 Martin"
 In conclusion the statement calls for a speedy uniting of all elements op- posed to the democrats urging an in- mediate meeting of the entire repuDI- can national committee to t~i-o
 work naming a committee of manage ment to outline policies and principles for which the reunited party should stand and that will glYe us some con structiye leadership.
 A statement declaring the charges of MT Perkins were unfounded was is- sued tonight by James A He-nonv.~ r. ". Ifstabrook and former Governor Gillette. They declared 1t was en . dorsed by John T. Adams, Cornelius N. Bliss. Jr., and other members of the committee.
 The statement follows in part:
 There is no justitication TOT the interpretation which MT. Perkins places upon yesterdays action of the execu - tive committee. He challenges the se- lection of John T. Adams as vice chair man of the committed In the selection of MT Adams there was no slight in- tended to the prOgressives nor was there any given. His choice was based on the fact that the November o'o~'FN'' showed that there is need of organiza-

ton work in the west and that his knowledge of conditions there and his political experience make him well fIt- ted for this work
 The Tact is that the convention Of lslo provided for the election by the national committee of four officers of Ire committee. When the national committee met in Chicago at the close 1f the convention a sub committee was appointed to confer with Mir Hughes and after such conference to select .an executive committee, power being dele gated by the full committee 10 tho prospective executive committee to elect the four officers. When the new executive committee met 1t elected Mir. Wilcox as chairman. MT. Bliss as treasurer and Mir. Reynolds as secrh- tary. It was understood at that time that member of the executive com mttee would he made vice chairman. but the election of such officer was de- ferred
 "At yesterdays meeting of the exectt- tive committee the question of filline the vacancy was brought up and the name of Mir. Adams was placed in nomination by. Congressman IcArthu Of Oregon. Mr. McArthur made .he point that Oregon and Iowa were the only states west of the Mississippi river with the exception of South Dakota, mich went republican last Novembei.
 At yesterdays meeting of the four members of the committee only four expressed themselves as in opposition to an election at this time. Upon the question of Mr. Adams election he wat chosen by practically a unanimous vote.
 Tt is difficult to understand how anyone unselfishly interested in the success of the republican party could challenge the result. MT. Adams never has been and is not now a candidate, for public office. He has been a mem ] Der of the national committee and of the executive committee of the ma ; tional committee for several years. He represents q section of the country that has been somewhat neglected.
 The west made no outcry against the appointment of Messrs Wilcox Parsons, Perkins. Strauss and Bliss. all of New York City as members of the governing committee, in the recent campaign. and the opposition by men In the east to the election of MT, Adams will seem to many fair minded men to be ungracious."

quilted Secretary Tumulty of any connection with the leak. Lawson declared he never had MT. Humility in mind respecting it until he met Mrs. Visconti. Even then. Lawson said he told the woman her efforts seemed to him to have been actuated by an interior motive. She insisted, he said, in the presence of her attorney. that she had no such motive but wanted to disclose information she thought con- gress and the public should have.
 Asked by Representative Pou why he had not acquainted Tumulty with the information given by Mrs. Visconti Lawson declared that he never had any intention of making the woman's let ter or her statements public when he did and that he would not have done so yesterday had the committee not demanded that he give them all the information in his possession on pain of punishment Lawson said he had sought a conference with Mir Price, but the reports which came to him concerning his effort caused him to let the matter drop. He said he prob- ably never could have gotten up his courage to go to Humility in view of all that had taken place since the in- quiry began, but that he had spoken to Mrs. Visconti about that very subject.
 T suggested that very thing to Mrs Visconti," he said, "and 1 think one of the things she said to me was this: I have repeatedly tried to get to MT. Tumulty today since I sent that letter before we went any further l called MT. Tumulty on the telephone and he said that l could not see him and would have to give him any information l had over the telephone. When I would not do this he cursed me out in a way wouldn't stand from any one
 T didn't have any idea of anything happening here to force that letter out" said Lawson.
 Lawson told the committee that there was something sad, pathetic and awful about this thing" which he was not in a position to disclose, but that the committee surely could get it from Mrs. Visconti. Despite the fact that the woman could not be found Lawson said he still believed she would appear and tell her story as she told it to him. He declared that after becoming con- ytnced that Mrs. Visconti was honest he had told her he would not see her suffer, or lose her means of livelihood If she aided him in this public ser vice

they beat him by vote of As to %.
Then the council organized, accepted
the old regulations with a change re-
quiring a four-ffths vote for a sus-
pension of the rules, and accepted
ThOmpsOn's reports.
The executives message was di-
vided into three parts. One section
detailed what the different city de-
partments had accomplished and
made suggestions for their better
ment
Another set forth the mayors
"bOmb-shell" traction project. 1t
proved to be Mike Faherty's old sub
way scheme to use the $2O,OOO,OOO
traction fund and build by special as
sessments against property owners
in the neighbOPhOOd affected by sub
ways.
The third section called attention
to the police department and de-
cIared that because of the number
of policemen busy on special work in
dance halls and for corporations, the
police force was shy $50 men. Chief
of Police Herman SchUettler asked
that these men be recalled from spe-
cial work and put on beat.
The council spent four hours clos
ing the business Of the old body and
organizing the new.
Several outgoing aldermen had
messages of farewell to the council.
But most serious and important was
that of Aid Charles E. Merriam.
Among other things, he said:
THE most important single prob
lem that the city has to deal with is
its public service corporations. The
aggregate capitalization of these
corporations is around $6OO,OOO,OOO.

is larger than that of Chicago. They

the anti-CathOlic little red school
house" forces last night when he Of
fered the name of Jacob Loeb for
nomination to the new school board.
But already whipped twice by the
independent council, Thompson did
not try to force his pet school board
head on Chicago before some of the
people get a chance to tell the alder
men what they think about LOebism
in school affairs.
Out-maneuvered and Out-vOted
twice, the administration meekly as
sented when Aid. John Kennedy in
sisted that the appointment of Loeb
go over a week for consideration be-
fore a vote be taken on it. Mean

be recalled and attacks on the Chi

pointed at as punishment for the big
fights made by that organization to
force big business firms to pay their
taxes that the school system might
get enough money to run itself.
How the new council stands on adj
ministratiOn politics was quickly
demonstrated last night when-Mayor
Thompson tried to rush through
some of his pet plans, among them
the naming of Loeb, before the rules
of the old council could be adopted
by the new. If he had been success

the aldermen almost without a dis
