Washington dispatches telling of tt,

President Wilson. few have commented
edltorially on the incident. The news
arrived too late for yesterdays morn

an hour earlier than usual because of
the daylight-sa saving law coming into
operation. The journal" calls the
event "a striking example of the auto
cratic regime the facade of which is
democratic."
president Wilson," the newspapc.
continues, returns after his mysteri-
Gus Illness. and comes to .he conclusion
that Secretary Lansing during his
absence has been ruling as Lansinp
wished, and dismisses him. Nation Il
representation and popular sentiment
are not even consulted In reaching a
decision in which Louis XIV would
nave used more formality.
",Opposltlon mas existed ba1ween Mr.
lison and Mr. Lansing ever since the
latter acted in the peace conference.
Mr.. Lansing was openly blamed Iu- fnr
concessions Mr.. Wilson was forced TO 70
make. and the Presidents illness alone
prevented an outbreak of the conflict
between the two. Mr.. Wilson'S motiva
IN this matter, however, may have BEEN
complex. Is not Mr.. Lansing called
upon to play the classic role of the
scapegoat, which assumes the burden
of his superior's faults? The choice
OF new Secretary will give an intec
esting indication"
In its editorial on the incident the
"Libre Parole" remarks:
"President Wilson, who has governed
ms country seven years without the
least regard for national represents
ton, who threw America into the war
after winning the election on peace
program, and who domineered over the
peace negotiations. returns from
illness to accuse his Foreign
Minister Of governing autocraticaliy
during his absence. Isn't that laugh
able? Mr.. Wilson has given the I'M
preston for some days that he is pre-
pairing to change his coat Isn't Mr..
Lansing's disgrace the first step?"

Allied Pren1iers
Reject Demands

PARIS, Feb. 16. Premiers
Millerand and Lloyd George have
sent a reply to President Wilson's
note relative to the Adriatic COM
promise and hold to their position
expressed in the note sent to the
Jugo-Slav government on Jan
uary 20, giving that government
a choice between the compromise
or the execution Of the Treaty of
London, according to "Pertinax,"
in 1.-THE Echo de Paris" this morn
ing.
Mr.. Wilson's charges against
Italy are rejected by the two Pre-
miers, it is said by the newspa-
per, which declares they asserted
in their reply that Italy threw all
her weight into the struggle and
fought for high ideals. The num-
ber of Italian dead is recalled in
one section of the reply.
While thus replying to Mr..
Wilson, Mr.. Lloyd George, acting
as President Of the Conference,
wrote M. Trumbitch, Jugo-Slav
Foreign Minister, informing him
that England and France main
tained their original viewpoint,
namely, that Jugo-Slavia must
accept the compromise agree
ment, or face the execution of
the Treaty of London.

The names Of the three Assistant
District Attorneys whom the extraordi.
nary grand jury wants to investigate
under the direction of the Attorney
General will be sent to Governor Smith
within a day or two. together with the
charges against each.
Raymond +. Almirall, foreman of the
grand jury, said in announcing this
yesterday that he expected this compli-
ance with the request of Governor
Smith would result in the immediate
designation of Attorney General New

Governor Smith made it condition

"Overshadowing Crime"
While examining evidence in con-

grand jury came upon what it termed
evidence of IAN overshadowing crime
and asked that special counsel be ap-

direction Of the master crime it hoped
to uncover.

War Now Over, His
Statement Contends
Announcing Candidacy
for Delegate, Urges Old
Fashioned Democracy

From Tho Tribunc's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Keb. 15-In q letter
announcing his candidacy for delegate
at-large from Indiana to the Demo-
cratic National Convention, made pub
lie tonight, Vice President Marshall
sets forth an "old-fashioned Democratic
platform"
The letter is directed to National
Committe Edward G. Hoffman, at
Fort Wayne, Ind. Almost the first state
ment of the Vice-Pre sident, after his
announcement of his candidacy, is that
the United States got into the European
war "because it affected our internal
affairs" This caused some surprise as
showing, for the first time since Mr..
Marshall has entered office, willing
ness to differ sharply in public with
President Wilson, whose belief is that
the United States entered the war to
make the world safe for democracy, and
to prevent future wars
Vice-President Marshall also differs
sharply with the President and with
many Democratic orators in fiat state
ment that "the war is now over"
Text of Marshalls Letter
The text of the Presidents let
ter follows:
"Another Presidential campaign i'm

the chief of our party, has not deemed
it expedient to express his opinion as
to what the issues will be. AS am de-
si-ous Of being elegate-at-large from

sonance with what l hope has been my
entire public career, to state the sub
stance of what think the Democratic
party should stand for. would not
want to go under any misapprehension
as to my views upon the part of the
unfaltering demands of Indiana.
1--WE were IN the war from the very
moment of its European beginning be-
cause it affected our internal affairs.
All of the methods and measures
adopted for the preservation of the
peace of our country and the winning
of the war met with my approval and
l am ready to defend them.
"Thc war is now over and the re-
Mobilization of America, as we'll as the
rest of the world, is taking place. 1t
is not possible to accomplish our re-
habilitation other than through the
instrumentalities of political parties.
How shall the Democratic party pro-
pose to rehabilitate the political system
of America if intrusted with power, is
the question.

II have watched in other countries
the effects of so-called unbridled de-

become alarmed at the failure of the
young men to return, started up the
mountain on snowshoes in an attempt
to- find them. He discharged his re-

Rcynders heard and answered with his
own revolver, but even then it was
difficult for Nettleton to locate them,
and MacVeagh was dead when he ar
rived.
Nettlcton assisted Reynders down
the mountain and returned for the
body, bringing it out just before night.
