RECLAMATION ACT |S
 PASSED BY CONGRESS
 GOVERNOR WIRES

Final passage by congress of "an agreeable reclamation bill' was re- ported by Gov. Thomas E. Campbell in a telegram to Percy R. Mines, his sec retary, late yesterday afternoon Gov ernor Campbell is one of the many western governors who has been in Washington for the past several days in an effort to secure immediate action on pending and proposed reclamation bills.
 While the exact nature of the bill passed was not stated, 1t has to do with an appropriation to cover preliminary work on reclamation projects already outlined in Arizona and other arid states.
 Hopes of an appropriation of two hundred and fifty millions to meet re- clamation needs of southwestern states was early discouraged by legis- lators at the national capital, who pointed out that the postwar period demanded that finances and expendi- lures be handled in a most conserva- tive manner. While many of the sem ators and representatives expressed themselves as heartily in favor of giv- ing aid. they thought it unwise to make any stupendous appropriation until such time as the financial market became more stable.

Comptroller. and that Brooklyn is
through with that organization.
When William H. Anderson was told
about Judge Haskell's boom for either
Governor this year or Mayor next
year. he said:
ut is no surprise to me, as I pre-
dicted it four months ago when Has
kell took the wet end in the last
campaign. We knew perfectly we'll
that the VETS would rally behind him,
because they are short of available
candidates for anything, and they
think they stand to win with him.
Haskell in a statewide primary
will find he is up against different
proposition than running at home,
where the wet and dry issue was
tried out for the first time. He could
not be elected a second time in Brook
lyn. The 'drys' would like nothing bet
ter than to see him enter a state wide
primary. AS a candidate for Mayor
he would be useless to the Republi-
cans. Granted that the city is still
wet in its inclinations the Democrats
would have wet candidate of their
own. so that he would have little rea-
son to expect wet support from among
the Democrats. He hasn't chance
either way"

King Refuses to
Give Up Wood Data
After He RESIGNS
Col. Proctor Now Looking
for Campaign Manager;
General Here To-day for
Conference With Backers

The resignation Of John T. King, the
Connecticut Republican national COM
mitteeman, as leading delegate hunter
for General Leonard Wood has tempo
rarily demoralized the Wood campaign
committee, as Mr.. King refuses to turn
over to the committee, Of which Colonel
William c. Proctor, of Cincinnati, is
chairman, the mass Of data, pledges and
other information obtained by him In
the last year in his canvass of the
states in the interest Of General Wood.
Colonel Proctor on his return from
Washington yesterday said that he was
looking for competent campaign man
ager for the New York district. 1t is
expected that he will decided on some
one within the next forty-eight hours.
Frederick Moore, publicity director
for the Wood campaign committee, in
commenting on the decision of the
wood men to remain out of Ohio be-
cause Senator Harding is the favorite
son candidate there, said:
That has been the policy Of General
Wood and his friends from the begin
nlng. 1t is quite generally understood
that the general is the second choice in
Ohio. Wherever any state has favor
ite son candidate, General Wood, if he
is the second choice of the state, will
not make a fight for the delegates"
General Wood will be in town this
afternoon, coming from Washington, to
confer with Colonel Proctor and local
Republicans. Otto Kahn will give a
luncheon in his honor tomorrow. and
tomorrow night the general speaks at
a dinner of the Providence Chamber
Of Commerce. On Sunday he will be in
Boston, and while there will attend q
meeting of the Harvard overseers and
make am address. Early in the week
he expects to return to Chicago.
George j. Woods, of Lincoln, speak
ing for the Pershing for President or
CARNATIONS being organized around the
country, said last night at the Bilt-
more:
"It does not make any difference to
us whether General Wood makes fight
IN the Nebraska primaries or not. Ne
braska will send a solid Pershing dele
cation to Chicago. The Pershing boom
is movement by the people. Because
of that the Pershing men will not keep
out of any state. General Pershing's
idea of government, if l correctly un-
derstand him, is 100 per cent Ameri-
can, with narrow partisanship left out.
He is not seeking the nomination. His
friends are seeking it for him. He is
great business man. His record as
head Of the American army in France
shows it."

Plan to Retain Highly Paid Men

District Attorney Swami wrote yes
terday to the extraordinary grand jury

cation, suggesting that they dispense
with the plan to retain an expensive

he was ready to designate as special
counsel.
So far as investigating went, the
District Attorney said the grand jury s
secretary, Clinton 7. Brainard, head
Of Harper g. Bros, was as well
fitted for directing the task as any
man the grand jury was likely to find.
AS to counsel, he named the follow

Police Officer Injured
In Station House Fight
Two Lieutenants Are Trans
ferred After Serious Clash
in the lO4th Precinct

Two police lieutenants, it was
learned yesterday, have been trans
ferred from the 104th Street station as
the result of battle at midnight Mon
day in the station house. One of them,
Lieutenant Patrick j. Kearns, has been
unable to report for duty on account Of
injuries which sent him to a hospital.
No charge has yet been lodged against
the other, Lieutenant Eugene O'Sulli-
van, officials at Police Headquarters, it
is said, being reluctant to give the bat
tie any further airing.
The fight occurred when O'Sullivan
appeared to relieve Kearns. The men
had quarreled previously, and word
or two brought about the collision, in
the presence of thirty patrolmen who
were waiting the word to go out on
post.
Kearns, though the larger man, was
knocked over chair, wrecking it, and
causing serious injury to one of his
legs. Orders were issued not to give
the encounter publicity, and the men
were meanwhile transferred, O'Sullivan
to the Eleventh Inspection District and
Kearns to the Fifth District

The friends of Colonel William j.
Bryan in charge of the dinner to be
given by the Society of Arts and
Sciences at the Hotel Astor on Sunday
night, announced last night that Gov
ernor Smith and Mayor Hylan have
accepted invitations to the dinner and
that both are likely to be called On to
speak.
When Mayor Hklan learned that
many distinguished Democrats, some Of
them his personal friends, were to at
tend the dinner, he cancelled other en-
gagements, it was said last night, in
order to do honor to the Commoner.
James w. Gerard, former Ambassador
to Germany, will preside. Out of
Difference to Colonel .Bryan's religious
scruples, and the further fact that the
dinner is on Sunday night, it was said
last night that the Rev. Ralph Jervis
Walker, rector Of ST. Simeon's Pro-
testant Episcopal Church, will offer
prayer.
Judge and Mrs. Gerard have in
vited many friends connected with the
Union and Manhattan clubs, while
