r. J. G0DsoL WINS FREEDOM.
Alleged French Prohteer Released
Under Habeas Corpus Writ.

WASHINGTON, July 29.-Frank ].
Godsol. q French citizen. held here on
charges of the French Government that
he profited several millions of dolla RS
on motor truck contracts. was dis
charged from custody to-day by Justice
Gould OF the District Supreme Court on
writ of habeas corpus. The French
Government noted an appeal and Godsol
was released on $4,000 bond, which he
furnished IN Liberty bonds.
Tho Court gave three reasons for dis
charking Godsol. The first was that the
complaint was defective In that the rec
ord showed that Godsol obtained the
commissions from the f!erce-Arrow
Motor Company and no. from the French
Government.
The second was that there was IN the
Courts opinion not only a variance be-
tween the allegations and the proofs. but
that the proofs squarely contrsdict the
allegations" The third was that II
there were any false Representations
they were In France ana that undel
the American law the crime OF obtaining
money under false pretences Is com
mitted where the money is obtained and
pot where the pretence Is made.

HEARST MEN CEASE

Further indication that William Ran
dolph Hearst does not seriously consider
contesting in the Democratic primaries
for the nomination for Governor came
yesterday when II was stated that the
day after the Saratoga convention L. ].
OReiliy, the Hearst political manager,
had called Off those obtaining signatures
to the Hearst designation petitions.
It seems a contract fad been entered
into with a commercial concern to obtain
rs, 900 signatures at a reported price OF
10 cents name. This concern was
notified to obtain no more names. As
Hearst petitions containing more than
1000 names previously had been OBJ
tained, according to his friends. he ia
already equipped to 20 into the primaries
II he should SO desire. Only 5000
names are required. However, II Mr..
Hearst should consider making a serious

Senator Sterling indicated his entire
agreement with the position taken by

cuse the Provost Marshsl-General from
the blame for the inequalities which
have resulted from the combination OF
the. volunteer system with the draft
law The local boards are to blame the
Senator insisted. {.
MY experience with a good many OF
these men seeking to enlist these days
Is that they are looking for some soft
snap" Senator Nelson said. They
are anxious to escape the draft so that
they can drive automobiles for ofSfcers
or do some other work away from the
fighting line. They want to get into
some service whore they don't have to
meet the enemy"
Senator Nelson then read a statement
published this morning in which II was
stated that large percentage of the
American marines engaged in the fight
ing around Chateau Thierry were below
81 years old.
