PRESIDENT WILSON
TAKES OFFENSIVE
FOR HIS POLICIES
Administration Senators and
Officers Discuss In
terView.
By United Press:

BY lnlteo Rreee.
WA SHINGTON. June lS.-Pres't
Wilson has taken the offensive for
his policies at the start OF the presi-
dental campaign, cabinet officers
and administration senators said
here Friday.
In Wilson's interview in the New
York Morning World, they said, he
has not only pointed cut the course
he believes the democrats should
follow In the presidential campaign.
but he has thrown down the gage
10 his opponents in his own party.
Should the democrats at san
Francisco pussyfoot on the league
Wilson has left hanging over them
the possibility Of his candidacy for
a third term. Democrats as well as
republicans here noted that the
president has not repudiated such a
possibility. Republicans were ready
TO comm ent on il. Democrats were
not
Gage In Utterance.
The gage 10 the PRESIDENTS dem
ocratic opponents, his supporters
said, wSs contained I'm the utterance
that he was as confident today as
l was when / returned from Paris
finally in June last that the people
OF not only America but Of the en-
tire world are in favor of the League
OF Nations" and also when he de-
clared the American people want a
referendum on the league issue
above anything else political
party now may provide"
In his official family these utter
ances were interpreted as meaning
that Wilson believes the republican
party cannot escape the league is
sue and that the democratic party
will have failed the country If IL
does not take a positive stand for
the league.
The Chicago Platform.
When Wilson declared the pro-
cesses by which the Chicago plat
form was accomplished seemed 10
him to have been essentially 'Prus-
sian in inspiration and method" and
later refused 10 comment on the re-
publican candidates, he outlined the
democratic campaign, according to
administration views.
This course is an attack on the
republican platform with the Incl
dental statement that the nominees
fit the platform. There was also re
joicing among democrats that VIII
son had refrained from indicating a
choice for any democratic pTeSl-
dental aspirant.
Daniels in Statement.
Sec'y Daniels Friday followed the
presidents interview with a state
ment of the same trend.
Il think the senate's failure 20
ratify the treaty is the tragedy Of
the century" Daniels said. The
unrest throughout the world is
chiefly due to that failure. The
American PEOPLE by an overwhelm-
ing majority showed that they wish
ed the treaty ratified"
Rep. Mondell. republican leader
OF the house, declared the presi-
dents interview indicated he was
thinking Of a third term.
This would convey the impress
sion that he would be a candidate
for a third term" Mondell said. He
says he's the issue. If he's the issue
he ought to be the candidate"

Tells Story of Home
Life.

NEW YORK, June IS. The

inently in the life OF Joseph Bovine
ElweI, whist wizard, was known
as Miss Wilson" Mrs. Marie Lar
sen. housekeeper for the murdered
man, during an examination by Dist.
Atty Edward Swami, revealed FRI
day. Il have later found that was
not her true name" Mrs. Larsen

Swami. who possesses the real
name OF the woman said: TO pro-
tect the honor OF womanhood. we
have decided 10 withhold the girls

Miss Wilson" had been in Ell
wells company often, recently Mrs.
Larsen said. She was the owner
OF the lingerie. including a night
robe. cap and bedroom slippers

Spends Night With EINveII.
Mrs. Larsen said Miss Wilson"
had spent wednesday night with Ell
well. she believed, but was not sure
about Thursday, the night of the
murder. After calling the police
on finding Mr.. Elwell wounded, I
went TO the bedroom" Mrs. Larsen
said. The lingerie was in a box
on a shelf and either had not been
used Friday night or else had been
carefully put away after use.
The top covers OF the bed were
turned back. but they were not
rumpled. One side Of the bed gave
the impression that someone had
been lying down for a short time.
The impression left was not large "
Questioned further. Mrs. Larsen
said Elwell was a heavy man, weigh
ing only slightly under 200 pounds
and that II he had been lying in the
bed il probably would have been
more plainly noticeable.
Miss Wilson" was at the Elwell
house on Friday after Elwells muir
der had been discovered, Mrs. Lar
sen said.
She denied that she had hidden
the revolver with which Elwell was
shot.
AS far as Mrs. Larsen knew, she
