that he will lead the fight on the elder
Benjamin for the annulment Of Miss
Bolchi's adoption. Mr.. Caruso added
that he acted in behalf Of his wife, and
expressed indignation at the manner in
which the elder Benjamin is treating
Mrs: Benjamin, who is in sanitarium
made the following statement:
Il wish to make my position in this
matter perfectly plain, and in doing SO
| speak for my wife. The chief reason
l objected originally to this projected
adoption and the reason that still OBJ
tains is the effect such an act by Mr..
Benjamin would have upon the health
of his wife. The question of money
now or in the future does not enter
this family difficulty. My wife, as you
know, is in delicate health, but fort
unately this news from Pennsylvan mia
has only made her intensely indignant.
We are not worried about her in the
least.
at does not seem just to Mrs. Ben
jamin that her husband should adopt
this grown woman when he has FIVE
children and several grandchildren.

1t virtually is assured that Senate.
James E. Watson will not be opposed
for the Republican nomination and
the Democratic leaders are anxious to
against him. Back Of the movement
to run Mr.. Marshall has seen the

took charge of the Marshall interests
when the latter was first nominated
for the vice-Dresidency. Mr.. Marshall's
name was PRESENTED as Indianas

Indiana delegation voted for him
solidly at the aBltimore convention
until the time was ripe for the vote
to be thrown to Woodrow Wilson, and
then it was easy sailing to land the
presidential nomination for Mr..

Received by Academy Of Moral
and Political Sciences

PARIS, Dec. 13.-Cardinal MERCER,
Primate of Belgium, was received at
the Academy of Moral and Political
Sciences here this afternoon. The pres
ident of the academy, in an address,
exalted the heroic attitude in the war
of Belgium and her King, and eulo-

Cardinal MERCER in response praised
King Albert for the leadership Of his
people, and paid tribute to France and
her allies, who, he declared, offered
their gold and blood, mixed with the
tears of their wives and mothers, in
order that respect for the given word,
for justice and loyalty, as against pass
ing material interests, might triumph
in the world.
