CONNECT
TUMULTY.
Draw any inferences you please" Sec
retary Tumulty said at the whitehouse
today.
1t was stated at the whitehouse that
no further cabinet designations are ex-
pected as the result of participation Of
departmental heads in the cabinet meet
ings which Wilson declared were held
without his knowledge.
It was learned at the whitehouse that
there will be omore cabinet meetings
until the president himself calls one and
presides over it. Tumulty said the preSi-
dent was rapidly gaining strength and
that it was probable he would call such
next week. This will be the first time
the president has appeared at cabinet
session since before he went on his
speaking tour last September.
The statement that there will be no
more cabinet designations because OF the
unauthorized meetings was taken in some
quarters as an indication that Lansing's
calling of such meetings was not the sole
reason for HIS clash with the president.
1t is known that Tumulty himself has
taken part in some of these meetings aud
that other cabinet officials had suggested
sessions when they had anything to talk
over with their fellow members.
CONGRESS CAN'T
INVESTIGATE.
Congress is without power to investi-
gate the dismissal of Lansing, but it
can investigate, If 1t wishes, the con-
dition of Americas foreign policq, In the
opinion of Senator Knox, Pennsylvania,
himself a former secretary Of state.
Congress can inform itself concern
ing the nations foreign policq, but can
do nothing directly about the circum-
stnnce," said Knox. "The conduct of
foreign affairs is, of course, in the pres
ident's hands and all that congress can
do is to get information for itself as to
the situation.
so tar as changes in the presidents
official family are concerned, he has a
perfect right to make those changes as
he sees 1T"
President Wilson's attitude toward
Lansing was characterized by Repre-

HAYS CALLED
TO CARPET BY
C. @. p. BACKERS
Is Chairman After Nomina-
ton for President Himself,
the Question.

NEW YORK. Feb. 14.-WiI II. Hays,
republican national chairman, is going
to spend some time in New York in the
near future at the urgent request Of
number Of the financial geniuses who
have been looking after the money end
of the campaign which Hays Is con
Quoting.
This invitation to Hays to come to the
metropolis is full Of significance. 1t
was brought about by growing sus-
picion on the part of the money inter
ests that Hays is taking advantage Of
their large contributions and his Of
fciai position with the party to build
for his own personal use Il machine In
the party of sufficient importance to
nomination for himself
For several months there has been talk
that the laudation of Hays. which has
been so generally printed In republican
papers was not without it's purpose and
was not prompted without the spread
ing of considerable grease" This feel
ing has been growing In the east and
the last trip of Hays through the west,
accompanied by the correspondents Of
number of republican, as well as demo
cratic, papers, which ended in a fulsome
burst of Hays praise did much to crysta-
lize the uneasiness.
At the Bankers club here, where the
big financial interests gather to discuss
business and politics, there has been
gradually increasing belief that Hays Is
attempting to bring about a deadlock at
the Chicago convention where he can
mount the platform and start himself al
compromise candidate" with assurance
OF being nominated.
TALK FOR HAYS
LIKE PROPAGANDA.
In various parts of the country there
has been talk Of Hays for the republican
nomination. 1t is just such talk as might
leak out from carefully planted propa
ganda designed to be kept secret until
the proper time arrived for it to break
forth
Inklings of this talk have permeated
the walls of Wall street and are being
reflected by spirit Of distrust among the
financial hackers of the republican party.
They want to know whether or not "Will
Hays is on the level" and the Indiana
man who visits New York is eagerly
questioned as to the personal life and
the general regard with which Hays is
held by his netghbors in Indiana.
There have been a number of things
transpiring recently which have led re
publicans to wonder just what Hays has
in mind. He has Travelled from one end
of the country to another. always on the
national committees money and usually
accompanied by a few free lance cor
respondents of newspapers. The corre
spondents have generally been of the
type that make their living by spread
ing propaganda for those who can afford
to pay to have it spread, and aim ost
without exception these trips have been
productive OF much personal laudation
of Hays. In fact, Hays Is being better
advertised today than any of the candi-

True, Says Lansing
The Secretary of State,

w dSulAB IOht w. o.
My Dear Mr.. President-It is true that
frequently during your illness 1 re-
quested the heads of the executive de-
partments of the government to meet for
informal conference.
Shortly after you were taken i'll in
October certain members of the cabinet,
of which I was one, felt that, in view
Of the fact that we were denied COM
munication with you, it was wise for u
to confer informally together on inter
departmental matters and matters as to
which action could not be postponed un-
til your medical advisers permitted you
to pass upon them. Accordingly, I, as
the ranking member, requested the mem
b IS of the ca binet to assemble for such
informal conference; and in view Of the
mutual benefit derived the practice was
continued I can assure you that it never
for a moment entered my mind that l
was acting uncOnstitutionally or cons
trary to your wishes, and there certainly
was no intention on my part to assume
powers and exercise functions which un-
der the constitution are exclusively con
fided to the president. During these
troublous times when many difficult and
vexatious questions have arisen and
when in the circumstances have been

sentative Porter, chairman Of the house
foreign relations committee, a s being al
most harsh"
ut is a novel interpretation Of the con-
stitution by the president that when two
or more members of the cabinet meet and
discuss interdepartmental matters, that
they violate the constitution" Porter de-
clared
Differences over the peace treaty and
policies with regard to Mexico, Porter
declared he believed, were the real rea-
sons for the presidents action.
Mfr Lansing has been a most capable
secretary and it would have been an
easy matter for the president to ask
him personally for his resignation on
the ground that they differed over mat,
ters of public policy rather than to dis
miss him in this peremptory and harsh
manner" he added
SPECULATION ON
OTHER RESERVATIONS.
There was also considerably curiosity
as to whether other designations would
follow that OF Mr.. Lansing. 1t Is known
that Secretary Lansing has not always
been the prime mover in the calling Of
cabinet meetings, but that he has acted
as ranking leader in calling the meetings,
often at the suggestion of other mem
bers.
During the coal strike crisis, when
special meetings of the cabinet were
called, it was distinctly understood at
the whitehouse that the meetings were
called at the request of Secretary Of La
Dor Wilson. At other times it has been
understood that other members desired
the cabinet meetings and that Secretary
Lansing simply acted at the request of
cabinet members.
The resignation Of Secretary Lansing
had long been expected, but the state de-
partment had let it be known that the
secretary would remain IN Office until he
felt that he had the opportunity to re-
sign without embarrassment to the presi-
dent.
That Secretary Lansing split with the
president at the Paris peace conferences
was well known in Washington. In fact.
1t was predicted that Secretary Lansing
would resign soon after his return from
