Korbly Resignation
Stirs Democratic Ranks
News-lIms. snecla1 serrice.

News-Iimes Special Service:
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. June s.
The democratic state committee me-
here yesterday and adjourned with
little action taken on any decisive
matters. Much commotion in local
democratic circles was stirred up
when IL became known that the res
ignatiOn OF Bernard Korbly. state
chairman, was imminent and that
Charles a. Greathouse of Indianap-
oils formerly state superintendent
Of public instruction. was slated to
succeed him as chairman.
II was expected throughout the
day that the resignation would be
handed In and that Greathouse's
election would be announced. but
finally there were so few commit
teemen attended the meeting that
any such action was impossible. II
was announced. This was the first
public indication that Mr. Great
house was being considered for the
Craftsmanship. II was offered 10 him
by certain strong elements OF the
party some time ago, il is now
known. but he declined absolutely
10 undertake il for business reasons
at that time.
Greenhouse May Accept.
The indications now are that
eventually Mr.. Greathouse will ac-
cept the place and democrats here
are jubilant over the selection. Mr..
Greathouse. a native Of Posey coun-
". is popular with large elements OF
the democratic party and has few
enemies anywhere within the party.
II is regarded among leaders here
that his selection would be the hap
piest solution 70 the long chairman
ship tangle that has yet been sug-
gested. He would make big business
sacrifices 20 take the place and II IS
probable that an executive secre-
tary. such as Charles SaIlee-the
present committee secretary-would
be retained and his powers enlarged,
if Mr.. Greathouse accepts the place.
Tom Taggart Attends.
Thomas Taggart was in the city
and attended the meeting. II is
understood he is thoroughly in favor
of the Greathouse selection. Friends
Of state Sen. J. r. Fleming OF Port
land. still are behind him for the
chairmanship. it is reported, but a
large element OF the party is op-
posed TO him on the ground that he
is 100 good "A friend of the stephen
=. Fleming-James H. F'ry-Dale J.
Crittenberger element Of the party.
IL is known here that the demo-
cratic state committee. in the near
future, will move its state head
quarters from the Public Savings
building in this city 10 the Claypool
hotel where permanent headquar-
tiers will be esta blished. This one

move will work wonders in an or
ganization way. IL is reported. since
the ClaypOol is one OF the biggest Of
the local hotels and a natural center
OF politics.
Plan on Fleming.
Some time ago. 10 is reported
quietly here. tho Crittenberger- F'rv-
Fleming group in the democratic
party believed they had enough
votes 70 put State Sen Fleming
across as chairman. but Korbly
blocked the move IL now seems
apparent that some other than
Fleming will be selected. as many in
the party leadership are thoroughly
opposed 20 this group controlling.
II Mr.. Greathouse takes the chair
manship. IL is reported, peace will
be made Immediately with the old
Wilson Bryan leaguers. through the
appointment of James G. McGin Of
Valparaiso TO the head Of a promi-
nent executive committee. that may
be formed. Plans are under way to
thus fuse the two large groups in
the party and create a harmonious
situation that will be able to pre-
sent a strong front to the Goodrich
Hays republicans at the coming
elections.
Discuss MayOralty.
There is much discussion here at
this time OF the indianapolis mayor
atty fight The strength of Lew
Shank. potato mayor. who is run
ming on an independent ticket after
having been defeated at the pri-
maries by Charles w. Jewett, the re-
publican candidate. has been so i'm
pressed upon leaders Of both big
parties recently that some men have
suggested a strange paradox OF a
combination between Jewett, the re-
publican, and Dick Miller, the dem
Ocratic candidate. in order 10 defeat
Shank. who resigned his position as
mayor under stress of the street car
strike in 1913.
Some even are suggesting that
Jewett and Miller toss up 20 de-
termine who shall be elected mayor
and who shall have the city con-
troller's job. This solution Of the
situation probably will not take
place. however. and democrats here
believe their man will win because
Of the bitterness Of the Shank-Jew-
EFT situation in some parts of the
city.
Intense interest politically is cen
tering on the Henry w. Bennett suit
TO test the cOnstitutiOnality of the
constitutional convention call law.
There are charges being made here
that this suit is actuated by the
liquor interests. but no definite proof
OF No: yet has been forthcoming.
A. any rate. the suit is being OPP
posed.

Benson Replies Briefly.
The naval head of the United
States replied in a speech remark
able for it's brevity and packed in
formation. Admiral Benson said in
part:
THE people of the nation are
wondering what the United States
navy is doing i'm these times big

daily and nightly peril Let me say

the United States navy is on the

chief power is buttressed behind
