clares her husband is dying in an

verse with him today.
The reasons why the government will
not release Mayor MacSwiney are given
in an official statement issued TODAY,
They are that fresh attempts would be
made TO continue with added. activity

TO use the case of the lord mayor as n
precedent with good hopes of securing

I oe wasted in bringing Toomey to trial.
! There is no doubt that he will BE-
indicted on tho strength Of his two con =
t"SSions and evidence which county de e
tectives are now gathering" said Mr..
Taulanc.
In one of these confessions Toomey
! Is said to have admitted the embczzle-
ment of 1924 900 from funds of the Sin
mott estate. of which the trust company
was executor. by transferring them to
false checking account
Mr.. Taulanr said he did not believe
additional charges would be made
against Toomey. or that higher bail
would he asked for him.
Mr.. Taulanp will operate with
Harold Il. BETTER in the prosecution of
the bank official.
Private and county detectives work
ing under Major Samuel q. Wynne are
convinced that Toomey did not lose all

William h. Mills. superintendent Of
police. and District Attorney Rotan
agreed Yesterday that IL there is any
legal method by which they can compel
the gamblers to return their repeated
winnings OF Toomoy il would be done.
Supcrintpndent Mills explained the diff
hculty in conviction upon the evidence
of only one person. especially il the tps-
timony presented is given by person
under arrest.
The fragrant operators of bookmak
ing establishments have been driven
from the city as we'll as the petty gam.
blcrs and We are rarely troubled BY their
activities. said Mills. but III this city
there is clique Of big gamblers which
deals in bets OH horse races that run
into thousands Of dollars daily. The
circle operates with such caution that
no outsider Is taken in unless tho gam
blers are sure he is fish and not con
nccted with the police. Of course. when
trimmed there is no corroborativP cvi
dencc to back up his accusations.

In his addresses here Governor Cox
asked Republican Chairman Will II.

treasurer and concluded with this OBJ
servation: "If you told the truth on
the stand nder oath, then Mr.. Upham

Senator Harding, yes or no. Do you
mean that you are opposed to our as
suming any moral obligation in our in

Dissects Harding's League Stand
Then in the same speech you say:
1t Is not uncommon for the advocates
OF the League Of Versailles to contrast
unfavorably The Hague tribunal upon
the ground that the tribunal lacks teeth
very well, let's put teeth into it. Please
answer yes or no, in the face Of your
to this question: Does the
putting of teeth into it mean the as
suming Of an obligation to exert moral
or physical force, or both?'
In one part Of your speech you say
that this nation will not be made to
appear as 'welcher' because no obliga-

reconcile this with your program of
putting teeth into the Hague tri-
bunal?
This approaches the very crux Of
the whole argument, and the American
people are entitled to know your mind
There can be no evasion. 1t was possi-
