dent Carranza announced definitely
that he would retire from office al
the expiration of his term on De-
cember /, 1920, and that elections
would be held in a regular and
legal manner, General Obregon was
the first to announce his candidacy.
From his hacienda home in Sonora
early this year he issued a mani
festo which proclaimed him the
leader Of the Liberal Constitutions

form Of reform upon which he
purposcd to make his campaign.
He Immediately began tour of

Meanwhile politics was fcrment-

puted TO hold the official favor of
President Carranza as his success
sor, began an active, campaign and
within few weeks lgnacio Bon
illas, at that time Mexican ambas-
sador to the United States, an

Gonzales both represented the mil

assertion, Obregon requested con-
gress to withdraw his rank as gem

Early in April, General Obregon
retired to his home in Sonora fol-
lowing published charges that the
Carranza regime was attempting to
embarrass his candidacy. Almost
coincident with this retirement
came the DETECTION of Adolfo de
la Huerta, who, as governor of
Sonora, refused to recognize the
sovereignty of President Carranza
in certain state affairs. This dis
agreement eliminated early in May

Special Dispatch to The Tribune

PHILADELPHIA, June 22-lndict-
ments against several of those already
named in connection with the con-
spiracy by which Grover Cleveland
Bergdoll, draft dodger, escaped from
two non-commissioned officers in this
city while on gold hunting expedi-
tion will be asked tomorrow of the
special Federal grand jury investi-
eating the conspiracy.
The names Of at least one person
and perhaps several others who have
not appeared in the publicity surround
ing the slacker's escape will be sub
mitted to the jury, with evidence to
show that they had taken some part in
the plans leading up to the escape or
in helping Bergdoll to get away later.
D. Clarence Gibboney, attorney for
Mrs Bergdoll, the dodgers mother,
will be one Of the principal witnesses
tomorrow. 1t has been made clear by
United States District Attorney
Charles D. McAvoy that Gibboney has
not been subpoenaed and is appearing
Of his own volton. Any testimony
that he gives will be voluntary.
1t is also understood that Gibboney
cannot obtain immunity by testifying
The same terms for testifying have
been offered to Colonel Samuel T. An
sell and Colonel Bailey, the Washing-
ton attorneys hired by Gibboney at
large fees to get Bergdoll out of

vitation.
The most important witness to-day
was Colonel 7. O. Donaldson, of the
inspector generals Office, who was as
signed to investigate the case for the
army after Bergdoll made his getaway.
Colonel Donaldson was in the jury
room from until o'clock this after
noon.
One of the chief points of interest in
the testimony concerned the with~ q
Treasury at Washington by Bergdoll.
This story was confirmed by Donald
son. who investigated it, and by W. l..
Alexander. paying teller in the Treas
ury building.
The story of how the gold was with
drawn at q time when Bergdoll was
fugitive from justice was told in much
detail to prove that it was not merely
a pipe dream"
From the testimony 81 Alexander it
now appears that Bergdol was able

United States Treasury a. a time when
the Administration was spreading

citizens not to ask for gold

Defends Operation Which
Preceded Woman's Death
Doctor on Trial Takes Stand
and Declares His Action
Was Necessary

The operation which preceded the
death Of Mrs. Michael Ogonesof, of 23O
Riverside Drive, was necessary and was
not critical one. it was testified yes
terday in defense of DR.. julius Ham
mer. OF 1880 Washington Avenue, the
Bronx. Dr. Hammer is on trial in the
Bronx County Court charged with
causing the death of Mrs. Ogonesoff
through the performance Of an un-
necessary operation.
Dr. Julius Albert Berg, of East
SeVonty-third Street, testified that
when he visited Mrs. Ogonesoff on
July 8. 1919. the day after the opera
ton, he told DR.. Hammer that he be-
lleved she was suffering from periton-
it's. DR.. Hammer disagreed and SAID
that the fever which DR.. Berg had
noted was due to an attack of inf1u-
enza.
Dr. Benjamin Schwartz, of the Med
ical Examiners office, testified that an
autopsy showed that Mrs Ogonesoff's S
death was due to the operation per
formed by Dr. Hammer
Counsel for Dr. Hammer urged that
a conviction would cause physicians
everywhere 10 give up the practice of
methods which had saved the lives OF
thousands of women.
On the witness stand Dr. Hammer
declared that the operation was a com
mon one, such as was performed every
day in homes, physicians offices and
hospitals. 1t was not a critical or diff
ticult operation, he said. The case viii
bc continued to-day.

but III the future. I'VE arc at least
on the right road" said one of the con-
terees. Our job is to create a plan
for world court. Then it is up to
the League Of Nations to put it into
.beng'
With respect to the understanding
that the high court of nations would
not entirely superscde the Hague tri-
bunal, it was suggested that the high
courts task will be to try cases strictly
according to the laws Of nations. This
leaves the field still open for arbitra-
tion in cases where it is not ques-
ton of laws. and which the countries S
involved might hesitate 10 submit to
the high court, but would be glad to
arbltrate through commissions on
which the participants had represent
atves.
The first Hague tribunal arbitration
since the war will take place in Sep
tember next, with Mr.. Root as chair
man of the arbiters. This has TO DO
with a litigation begun before the
war, involving Spain, France, Portu-
gal ana Italy in the question of respon-
siblity for damage to churches and
property in Portugal during the revo-
luton.
Mr.. Root plans to visit several
countries in Europe after the work of
the Jurist's commission here is ended.

THE HAGUE, June -7.-The interna-
tional jurists who are in conference
here preparing plans for an interna-
tional court Of justice, sought in re-
newal Of their discussions to-day to
reach a decision on the methods Of
elccting the judges comprising the
court
After virtually agreeing 10 The plan
suggested by Lord Phil.imorc, repre-
senting Great Britain, and concurred
in by Elihu Root which would have
allowed the League Of Nations assem-
bly, to elect fifteen judges from panel
proposed by the league council, the
conferees decided to consider two other
plans which were suggested to-day.
The first was a modification of the
proposal before the conference. in that
it suggested that the selection Of
judges be left to the league of ma
tions assembly which might determine
the best method of choosing them.
Powers to Name Court
The second proposal was that each of
the great powers select one of the
Judges, and that the men elected then
comprise the court, which would rep
resent the judicial systems of all the
world. Neither of these suggestions
has yet been discussed before the con-
ference.
Another question pending is the
manner Of filling vacancies in the court
been chosen. Whether countries which
are members of the league shall ind-
vldually select judge to fill vacancy
or whether the court itself shall choose
Its successors has not yet been decided.
THE HAGUE, June % (By The AS
sociated Press THE discussion of
the Commission Of Jurists to-day
strengthened the theory that the exist
ing Hague Arbitration Tribunal Will
not be abolished if a high court of
nations is formed, but, on the CON
trary, that the tribunal Will not only
function as formerly, bu; nave a con-
siderable part in the selection of the
judges for the high court.
The members Of the commission
took under consideration the possibil-
ity OF dovetaiing the Root Phillimorc
plan with the plan proposed by Baron
Descamps, for which a method was
suggested by Mr.. Root

working on tho draft plan of the Court
of Nations are entirely unaffected by
politics, the delegates have been SUB.
jected to the usual food of letters
from organizations seeking to force
national aspirations into the limelight.
Some hitherto unheralded movements
are the subject matter of these letters
For example. the other day some of
the jurists received letters from an
organization seeking the independence
Of Scotland and protesting against the
formation of any court which does
not recognize Scotland's claim to sep
aration from England.
Political Matters Discarded
All these letters, OF course, are cast
aside, as the members Of the commits
sion are firmly determined that their
duty is merely to form court, which
is clearly outside of the political ques-
tions of the League of Nations

which Mr.. Perkins wrote, "To Miss
Mary Kihm, my secretary for more
than twentyseven years, give and be-
queath the sum of fifty thousand
,000-dollars in evidence of my
sincere friendship and respect and of
my deep appreciation of her long and
faithful service"
The $4,000 year for life which
Miss Kihm is to receive is to come out
of a trust fund to be set aside for that
purpose. Mr.. Perkins suggested to
his executors that they employ his
secretary in connection with the
settlement of the estate. That service
she is to render without further COM
pensation, but Mr.. Perkins provided
that the annuity is not to be depen-
dent upon her rendering this service,
but shall be absolute.
Widow Gets All Real Estate.
Mr.. Perkins executed his will on July
6. 1915, and the codicl on December A,
1918. In his will he left to Mrs. Per
kns all his real estate. in this state
and elsewhere. including his residences
and their contents, his carriages, live
stock, automobiles and personal eff
fects. Mrs. Perkins also receives four
of the twelve parts into which Mr.
Perkins divided his estate in his will,
of which he gives his son and daugh-
ter each one part.
The remaining six parts are to be
equally divided into two trusts, the
son and daughter each to receive the
income from one trust fund. The son
is to receive the principal of his trust
fund upon reaching the age of forty
and the daughter shall receive half the
principal of her trust fund upon reach
ing the age of thirty-fve, the remain
ing half OF the trust, upon her death,
to be paid to her next of kin.
Fund Reverts to Children
The principal of the s15o,ooO trust
fund created by Mr.. Perkins for his
sister also will revert to his son and
daughter upon the death of the life

To his thirteen servants and four
other employees the fnancier left be-
