Boom for Butler
Started i'm West,
Says Judge Davies
First Gun for Columbia Pres
ident as the Republican
Nominee Will Be Fired
To-day in Minneapolis

Judge John r. Davies, of the Munic-
lpal District Court, who has been Sc
lected to run the campaign of Nicholas
Murray Butler, of Columbia University.
for the Republican nomination for Pres
ident, announced at his headquarters In
the Hotel Commodore last night that the
Butler boom" was by no means purely
local.
Originally, he said, it came into be-
ing in the West and Northwest and
has travelled East. He also predicted
that DR.. Butler would get the creates,
number of votes on the first ballot cast
in the convention.
The West and the Northwest" he
said, have begun their notification to
the East that the 1920 standard must
be high, and that they want Nicholas
Murray Butler because he measures
up to the standard.
The movement toward his nomina-
ton is not a favorite son movement
but a nation wide movement. 1t rests
entirely upon Mr.. Buffers fitness for
the office and upon his equipment to
deal with the problems, both interna-
tlonal and domestic, that confront the
nation at the present time
1hls movement originated some
months ago among business men and
party leaders of several Western states
1t was speedily Joined by representative
Republicans of all shades of opinion
and by representative women voters
who have not yet joined any party.
AS result OF informal confer
ences which have been held and ex-
rs l,
invited from all parts of the country.
it is believed Mr. Butler will have
more votes on the first ballot than any
other candidate before the convention
and that he will be nominated,
The strength of this movement is
Its spontaneous and national charac-
ter 1t has not been artiicially worked
up or heavily or at all financed, and
1t is not merely local in it's origin. 1t
Is warmly supported by Republicans
Of all types and factions, particularly
by young men and soldiers in all parts
of the nation.
vigorous speeches on public questions
delivered in all parts of the United
States, have given him a position OF
commanding leadership in forming the
pubic opinion Of the people. The strong
support which Mr.. Butler has in the
Western States is parslleled by his
strength in New York, in New Jersey
tln which state he was born), in Penn
5ylvania, ard in New England.
MY. Butler is also very strong in the
Far West and on the Pacific Coast 1t
is believed that Mr.. Butler will be the
second choice Of the friends of num-
Der of other candidates should the nom
nation of their favorites prove impos-
sible.
"a telegram just received from Min
neapolis says that "The Tribune" the
most influential Republican newspaper
in that important state, will come out
tomorrow morning in an editorial def
initely advocating Mr. Buffers nomina-
ton. The fact that this first gun is
fired in Minnesota rather than in the
East is significant of the nation wide
demand"

Over Mothers Trust Plan
Son Seeks Courts Advice as to
Fathers Authority to Ter
inmate Agreement

Richard Croker jr. brought second
action IN the Supreme Court yesterday

Boss who arrived from Europe a
few days ago and IS at the Hotel Savoy

ing the advice of the court as to the
authority OF his father TO terminate q
beth Croker, mother of the plaintiff
and first wife of the former political

Mr. Croker, the son. and Mr. Croker
ST. also were parties to the agreement

his father and mother IN equal shares

whichever survived. was to receive the
entire income on the death of the other.
Mrs. Croker died in 1914. She left
her property equally to her children
Richard Croker jr. waived his share
because his mother had expressed the
desire that her children. Howard Gro
ker, Mrs. Ethel c. White and Mrs.
Florence Croker Morris should receive
all. Provision was made for them out
Of the trust fund.
Mr.. Croker jr. alleges that in Au-
gust. 1917, his father sought to revoke
the trust agreement and requested the
son to convey TO him all the property
involved with the accumulated income.
The plaintiff asks for instructions from
the court as to his course as trustee
Mr.. Croker said that the principa, Of
the trust had yielded an income of
S66,665 since 1909 and that he has paid
out S62,679
