Cambridge. Md, Aug 26.-To be
lost by her guardian during her
girlhood and infancy and to find her
guardian and a legacy was the expert
ence of Miss NJ Richie Morgan, a
young woman of this city.
Miss Morgan's father died before
she was born. Her mother followed
him to the grave when the child was
but little more than a year old.
Thomas w Simmons, then a men,
Der of the Dorchester county bar,
later Secretary of State of Maryland
and now a banker of New York, was
appointed administrator for the
mothers estate and Miss Morgan'S
guardian.
As the latter was so young she was
taken by friends of her mother and
Mr.. Simmons lost sight of her. IN
qulries made later by him did not
avail 20 ind her.
Some weeks ago, however, a
friend. Miss Helen Hastings, told Miss
Morgan that her mother was said to
have left some life insurance and
urged her to make SIme inquiries.
Miss Morgan did not wish to take the
trouble, placing little faith in the
story of the life insurance, but Miss
Hastings did not rest until she had
persuaded her to ask Register OF
Wills, Russell P Smith about it. The
latter found by the records in his Of
fee that Mr. Simmons was Miss Nor
cams guardian and wrote him about
the young woman. Mr.. Simmons,
came to Cambridge, satisfied himself
as to Miss Morgan's identity and
lurned over to her several hundred
dollars which ne had had in saw

turned over to the rightful owner

Municipal Pay

Hyla', Experts
Mayor Says No Solution Has
Been Reached, Although
Figures Are Re-analyzed;
Enlists Aid of Board
Craig Statement Ignored
Graduated Plan of Increase
Said To Be Considered;
Excludes Fat Job Holders

Ignoring the statement by Comp.
troller Craig that the Mayor did not
have the power to veto the salary
increase resolution of the Board of
Aldermen, Mayor Hylan wrote letter
to the Board of Estimate and Ap-
portionment yesterday asking that
body again to analyze the entire ques-
ton. The Mayor vetoed the 20 per
cent increase plan Monday.
The text of the letter, which was not
made public, will be presented to tho
Board of Estimate tomorrow.
1--WE are doing the very best we can
to give all the lower paid employees
square DEAL" Mayor Hylan said "The
salary increase question is being re-
analyzed, but those going over the
figures have arrived at no conclusions
sufficient to discuss"
The Mayor, it was said, is devotine
much of his time to the subject, which
affects more than 10000 city employees
and which will cost the city an addi-
tional $5,000,000 in rejecting the
original plan, the Mayor came around
to the views of Borough President
Curran and President La Guardia OF
the Board of Aldermen, that the plan
for fiat 20 per cent increase for
all employees was little aid to the
small paid worker, for whose benefit
the increase was intended, while those
receiving salaries up to $4,000 or $4,000
a year would receive large bonuses.
The Bureau of Municipal Research
and the Citizens Union injected them
selves into the situation and supported
the stand taken by Mayor Hylan
Leonard M. Wallstein, counsel for the
Citizens Union, issued statement, in
which he said:
"Thc Mayor has acted wisely and
courageously in vetoing tho unjust
scheme of salary increases. The neec
for raises in municipal salaries is in
disputable, but that need should not be
made the cover for huge bonuses tc
high salared political place holders al
the expense of the underpaid rank anc
ile of city employees"
The Bureau of Municipal Research is
sued a statement, in which it discusses
the law, adding that the situation is
not at all analogous to the passage OF
the budget, as Comptroller Craig seems
to think
The proposals now said to be under
consideration by the Board of Esti
mate are:
Twenty-one per cent increase on all
salaries of 81 800 or less; 20 per cent
increase on salaries between 81 800 and
$4,000; no increase of more than $500
year on any salary of more than
$4,000; no increase on salaries of more
than $500 a year; minimum in
crease Of 5000 year

DAYTON, Ohio, July 2s.-Governol
James M. Cox put in trying do o.
day debating to a stenographer the
speech in which he will accept the
Democratic nomination for President
Before nightfall several drafts of the
speech had been rushed to the print
ers.
The greatest secrecy surrounds what
Is going into the speech. 1t is known
that considerable attention is being
paid to the League of Nations issue
and to industrial problems, but beyond
this lite definitely has leaked out
One report has it that Cox is to take
the bull by the horns and openly fiat
ter the cause of the vets, put others
say he will follow the example of the
Democratic national platform and not
make any reference to prohibition or
liquor in his address.
If any reference to prohibition is
made it is expected to be the long de-
ferred answer to Richmond P. Hobson,
Alabama Anti-Saloon League leader
who demanded that Cox state fatty
that he does not favor any increase in
the alcoholic content of liquor beyond
one-half of per cent. Cox has been
slleHC regarding inc IouSoH LeleSlaii
but has indicated that it will receive
a reply.
Cox has also indicated that he will
reply to P. P Christensen, Farmer
Labor candidate for President, who to-
day sent a second telegram to the
Governor asking that Cox aid in OBJ
tanning executive clemency for Eugene
V. Debs, Socialist candidate, nov Jailed
in Atlanta. Cox has received some
Debs data from Washington, and il is
expected that he will refuse to accede
to Christensen's request.

She conferred with the Governor at his
request concerning some matters of

and it emphasizes my conviction that
as Vice President you will be asked to
make your official services comport

The nominee also found time to con-
gratulate the commodore of the New
York Yacht Club on the victory of the
Resolute, including bit of praise for
the sportsmanship Of Sir Thomas Lip
ton. His message follows:
"Along with all your fellow Ameri-
cans I want to extend my congratu-
lations on the victory of Resolute.
The defender won over good boat
and also over one of the best sports
men in the world. We could all hope
that if the historic trophy is ever
to be lost to us it might become the
reward of Sir Thomas Lipton's
splendid and persistent efforts. But
as Americans we all take the more
antagonist. 1t is the more a worth
while victory. The wonderful series
of races for the Americas Cup has
done very much to create the best of
understanding between the two great
English speaking nations, and it is
to be hoped there will be many more
such contests"
Senator Harding has received many
letters from prominent Democrats ex-
pressing bitter opposition to the course
of President Wilson and promising
support to the Republican nominee.
Louis G. Bohneych, former Democratic
candidate for Governor Of Wisconsin
and a Wilson elector in 1912, is the
latest Of these. He wrote:

lean permit me to congratulate you

British Labor Moves Again

As this issue goes to pressethe long-awaited
strike of million British miners begins, and the
eyes of the militant labor world are on them. In
defiance of the Lloyd George government and the
whole organized capitalist class of Britain; spurn-
ing. even the eleventh-hour advice of Smillie TO
retreat, the miners have stepped boldly forward
into situation that is bound to have farreaching
consequences.
An associated press despatch speaks of the
apprehension felt at the possibility of the triple
alliance" coming back to life through sympathetic
strike of the transport and railroad workers. The
New York Times sees a close connection of the
action of the miners with the rapid development
f the communist movement in the mining areas.
his paper draws some comfort from their theory
that "the public is against the strike" But the
working class of England, well organized con-
scious of its power and determined to use it. needs
no support from any outside source within the
country.
The overwhelming majority in favor of strike
action-635, ,098 to 1S1 42S sets at rest all doubts
of the solidarity and determination of the miners.
The Times sees Revolutionary designs" in their
refusal to accept any of the proposals of the
government And they have good reason to;
because defiance Of the government is long step
