The change is noteworthy in many
respects. Senator Hitchcock, who is

Senate Democrats. and has on numer-
Gus occasions refused to follow the

vigorous supporters OF a strong war

been active and energetic in going
to the bottom OF the facts in con-
nection with the failure of some
branches of the War Department to

Speaker Clark, however, is not re-
garded as a probable appointee be-
cause he has already an office Of the
greatest distinction. Turmoil in Mis-

Stones death, and there will be n
sharp contest in the primaries in Au-

the place for the unexpired term
Governor Gardner would like to run,

As chairman OF the Senate Foreign Re

prominence in the upper house.
In connection with the bill opposing
the arming of American ships. he came
into collision with the Administration.
He was one Of the ''willful twelve" SEN

MYSTERY OF CYCLOPS
STILL IS UNS0LVED;
HOPE ALMOST GONE

The mystery of the United States
steamship Cyclops remained unsolved
today. and navy officials had almost
abandoned hope of her recovery
Missing since March 4. when she re-
ported from n West Indian port the
10.0O0-ton collier has been given up
for lost. and the relatives Of the 293
officers. crew and passengers have
been notified.
Secretary Daniels said he had not
abandoned the last hope for the ship,
but admitted tho chance of hearing
from her was extremely slight.
There - a faint hope that some OF
her company got away in lifeboats,
and naval vessels are securing the
Gulf Stream for possible survivors
In naval circles the theory Is that
an accident to her machinery caused
the big new collier to go down rather
than the probability that big German
submarines are operating on this side
OF the Atlantic Two Of the Cyclops'
engines were out Of order when she
lRrt r-Purted. This. however. would
not interfere with the powerful wire
loss she carried.
Tho collier was bound for an Amer
lean port with n valuable manganese
cargo from Rrazil and was under COM
mand of Lieutenant Commander Wor-
lev, l.. s. y. Il. +. Norfolk, Va.

Distillers Securities attracted most
attention, moving up more than ?
points to AN, a new high record for
this movement. All the steel indus
trials were in good demand.
The gains made in the initial dealings
were fairly well maintained all through
the forenoon, although there were some
recessiOns from the highest prices. The
heaviest buying was in Distillers' Secpri-
ties and Steel common, and the manner
IN which they were taken was regarded
as Indicating confidence in the situation
in France. There was some commission
