In dis cussion today of his probable success sor, Alexander T. Vogelsang, also of California. was mentioned.
 Secretary Lanes letter follows:
 My Dear MT. President:
 Tt is with deep regret that I feel compelled to resign the commission with which you saw fit to honor me by appointing me to a place in your cabinet, now almost seven years ago. If 1t will meet your convenience, I would suggest that I be permitted to retire on March l.
 With the conditions which make this step necessary your are familiar. I have served the public for 21 years and that service appeals to me as none
 
 other duties.
 "The program of administration and legislation looking to the development of our resources, which I have sug- gested from time to time, is now in large part in effect, or soon will come into effect through action of congress. T return this department into your hands with very really great gratitude that you gave me the opportunity to know well a working force holding so many men and women of singular ability and rare spirit.
 "I trust that you may soon be so completely restored to health that the country and the world may have the benefit of the full measure of your strength in the leadership of their af- fairs The discouragements of the present are, I believe only temporary. The country knows that for America to stand outside the league of nations will bring neither pride to us nor con- fidence to the world
 Believe me, my Dear President al ways,
 Cordially and faithfully yours,
 (Signed)
 FRANKLIN K LANE.'' In reply the president wrote:
 1th February, 1920. My Dear Secretary:
 T need not tell you with what re- gret I accept your resignation as sec retary of the interior for our associa- tion has been very delightful, I have admired the spirit in which you de- voted yourself to the duties of your departm as I am sure that all at tentive observers have, but the reasons you give for your retirement leaves me no choice but to acquesce and I, of course, accept your suggestion that the resignation be in effect the first of March since that will serve your con- venience-
 May I not add how sincerely I hope that your future career will be as full of honorable success as your past My best wishes will follow you al the years that apparently must now separate us and I beg to su bscribe myself.
 Cordially and sincerely, your friend.
 (Signed)

Republican A. p. Leased WireJ

MONTESANO, Wash. Feb. 7.-Tak- ing of testimony in the trial of II al- legged Industrial Workers of the World charged with Warren O. Grimm's mur- der in the Centralia Armistice day shooting will begin Monday.
 Two alternate jurors to act if any of the jurors are incapacitated were ob- tained today and the county prosecu- tor, Herman Allen, made his opening statement. At the conclusion of AL lens statement George F. Vandeveer, attorney for the defense, asked if the state made the definite assertion that the I. W. w. hall was not attacked be- fore any shots were fired at the march CTS. Allen replied that he did and that his statement should be so construed.
 Judge Wilson authorized examina- tion of Loren Roberts. one of the de- fendants, to determine his sanity. The defense has announced that it will plead insanity in the case of Roberts. The opening statement of the defense may be delivered Monday, Vandeveer said, but he intimated he would be more likely to withhold it until the defense was ready to begin presentation of it's case.

The hold-up took place within a mile of the mining camp as the car carrying the deputy and his companions was turning off from the Aguilar road.
 The bandits, partly concealed in an arroyo, opened fire on the automobile and the deputy responded with his rifle, shooting one of the bandits through the body just as he received a wound in the leg A seyies of shots were ex- changed between the men in the deputy's car and the bandits and two of the three bandits mounted horses and rode away according to reports, leaving the third bandit badly wounded The wounded, Jakovitz. was taken into custody and is being brought to the hospital here tonight.
 The payroll was carried in a grip which was in the car driven by Super intendent Matthews of the Forbes mine, and with Deputy Sheriff Tyler and a third man made up the party. One report tonight is that the party carrying the payroll. discovered the bandits in wait for them some little distance before they came upon them and that Tyler stood up on the car t~ get a shot at one of three bandits and was shot in the leg, but riddled the body of the man, Jakoyitz.

More Graft Uncovered By Government Inspectors Probing Criminal Neglect
 On Part Of Employees In Ship Yards

Tt was criminal negligence on the part of the contractors"
 . Evans said 800 saddle horses were kept in readiness for service when there was no demand for them. He said six mules were hitched up to haul a load hardly big enough for two, and anybody who wanted horse or an au- tomobile got one.
 Thousands of automobiles and trucks were used to haul employees back and forth from the plant he said, 'and the purpose was plain The builders wanted to buy all the equip ment they could, because on every dol lar spent in constructing the plant they got commission.
 There were so many teams that or ders were given to keep them on the move before somebody complained, and at one time flock of IS were sent away from view. Bob Oliver, a sub contractor, was paid $500 for bossing teams, including his own. He was paid for his mules and then paid for boss ing them.
 Every foreman drawing s150 month got an automobile Hundreds of trips charged to the government were for joy rides.
 Evans will continue his testimony.

FLU SCARE BRINGS
 OUT DRASTIC ORDER FROM ARMY OFFICER

DOUGLAS, Feb. I.-An order is- sued by headquarters of the South ern Department forbidding the holding of vocational schools on army reservations, attending pie ture shows, dances or gatherings of any kind where there were crowds, was received at headquar- ters of the Arizona military district here today. The prevalence of in- fIuenza was stated as the cause of the order.
 The local ban on soldiers att tending public assemblies was about to be lifted, so greatly has the influenza situation improved at Camp Jones and Fort Huachuca, but the department order, which affects all points in the Mexican border district from California east, removes all chance of such action for the present.

 ROBERT FRENCH
County Prosecutor Admits Inability to Get Sufficient Jurors to Bring Bisbee Citizens Before Court at Tombstone

DOUGLAS, AriZ, Feb. 7-Robert N. French, county attorney of Cochise county. chief prosecutor in the charges brought against 210 Bisbee and Doug of 1.1S6 Industrial Workers of the World and alleged sympathizers from Bisbee, July 12, 1917, now is convinced that relatively few of the defendants can be brought to trial because of a lack of juror material in the county. 1t will be his aim, he said today, while on a visit here, to endeavor to bring those to trial who, he is convinced were chiefly responsible for the deportation.
 From my standpoint" said MT. French, "the men who are responsible for the deportation from Bisbee all are included in the blanket warrant I want these cases tried first. If any cases are to be dismissed for want of juries, I had rather it should not be those whom I charge with originating the scheme.
 >sAs the public is aware, I cannot remove the trials to another county nor bring jurors from another county to act in these cases. All such power lies in the hands of the defendants who alone can ask change of venue. I take it that the defense will make no such motion when it is quite evident that many of the men they represent can not be brought to trial because there are not enough jurors. To me, it is plain, from the number of yeniremen necessary to be examined in the Woot- ton case now pending, that there will not be a sufficient number of men eligible for jury duty to try more than a few of the defendants"
 Deputy sheriffs serving summons here for jury service said today they had been able to locate only a few more than half of the local list of the venire of five hundred names who are to report for duty Tuesday morning at Tombstone.
