Ex-Service Men Keep Jobs
From, The Tribunc's Washington bureau

From The Iribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 9.-Means by
which former service men now occu-
pying civilian positions in the govern
ment may be retained in their places
and not dismissed in the retrenchment
policy adopted by the Administration
were discussed to-day by Secretary of
War Weeks and Assistant Secretary of
the Navy Roosevelt.
Reductions in the force of the War
Department, Secretary Weeks said,
were being made in such way as to
provide for the retention Of former
service men if their records were
classed as excellent or good, while in
the Navy Department ex-service men
are retained who qualify as very
good" in the posts they occupy.
Secretaries Weeks and Roosevelt are
seeking to establish uniform rule re-
garding former service men now in the
government employ, SO that injustice
will not be done them in the reduction
sof forces constantly being made.

Mother Goes
On Own Hunt
For Kidnapers
Mrs. Woodland Leaves for
Chattanooga, Believing
Her Vanished Boy and
Girl Are Hidden There
Rich Uncle Backs Search
Cape May Boatman Says
Pair Suspected in Mystery
Inquired About Yacht
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

CAPE MAY, N. j., July 9.-Mrs. Flor
ence Woodland, whose two children
vanished here Thursday, believes they
have been taken to Chattanooga, Tenn,
her home, and she is now on her way
to the Southern city.
Meanwhile the Cape May authorities
have sent news OF the kidnapping broad
cast and police of all southern Jersey
have been notified to watch for the
children.
Mrs. Woodland has found firm ally
in John Wilbraham, the children
wealthy grand-uncle, former Philadel-
phla manufacturer, who makes his
home in Cape May. Mr.. Wilbraham told
his niece before she left yesterday for
Chattanooga that he would back her
to the limit. "Uncle john as he is
known to almost everyone in Cape May,
is fond of all children and was devoted
to three year-old Jack and his little
sister May.
Believes Husband Behind 1t
Mrs. Woodland believes her husband,
from whom she was separated, and who
lived in Atlanta, Ga, may know some
thing about the disappearance of the
children. Her theory, as expressed be-
fore she left Cape May for the South,
was that the man and woman known as
children and were the last persons seen
with thin, had been sent by her nus
band.
Mrs. Walter Bennett, manager of the
Sunnyside Villa, has told all that she
knew about Mr.. and Mrs James, who
stayed at her place.
Mrs. James, whose first name is Beu-
lah, is described by Mrs. Bennett as a
lovable person, always anxious to help
about the house. Mrs. James told Mrs
Bennett that her fathers family lived
on farm ten miles from Richmond,
Va, and that she and her husband lived
on Marshall Street, Richmond. in the
goo block, which is near the Capitol.
On one occasion during their stay
at the villa, Mrs. Bennett said, Mrs.
James had received a letter from her
mother telling her daughter that she
prayed every night for her, that she and
her husband would give their hearts
to Cod" Mrs. Bennett said the letter
seemed to have a profound effect on
Mrs. James and that she cried a great
deal after receiving it,
Talked of Fast Yacht
One Of the boat captains at ScheY
lenger's Landing, Cape May, said to dav
that James had inquired how long it
would take a fast yacht to run across
TO Lewes, Del, and that he had been
at the boat landing several times the
day before the kidnapping.
Captain Howard Smith, who takes out
fishing parties from Cape May, said
that he took party of five, including.
two small children, from Cape May to
Lewcs Thursday afternoon. There were
two men and woman in the party.

Decision Expected October 1

The probable date Tor decision in
the Stillman divorce suit is October /,
Il was learned yesterday. The course
Of the case is clearly defined, and, I'M
less there are unexpected develop
ments, the opinion is that Supreme
Court Justice Morschauser will hand
down his decision in the fnancier's
petition on or about that date. The ac-
tion then will have been under way for
more than fifteen months. 1t is de-
scribed as one of the longest ana most
complicated divorce actions on record.
Mrs. Anne Urquhart Stillman will
hare FIVE days in this month in which
to present her defense. They will cover
the hearings on July 10, Il and 10, and
again on July 28 and 90. This time will
be supplemented by six days in Sep
tember, which will conclude the case.
Her husband, James A. Stillman, has
had ten days in which to present his
side OF the ease before Referee Daniel
]. Gleason, and has put less than a
score OF witnesses on the stand.
Wife to Testify in September
II was learned definitely yesterday
that Mrs. Stillman will take the stand
IN September. Baby Guy, co-defend-
ant in the suit, will appear with her
on one day Of the hearings. She will
answer all questions put to her. 1t
was also said that she will make fat
denial of the charges of misconduct
with Fred K. Beauvais, the Indian guide
named as correspondent by her hus-
band.
Mrs. Stillman is visiting friends at
Lake Forest, suburb of Chicago. She
and Buddy" her eldest son, have gone
there to rest. On her departure she
expressed the utmost confidence as to
the outcome OF the suit, and declared
that her husbands case had "fallen
down miserably" and that she could
see nothing except complete vindication
ahead. She may not return for the
hearing scheduled to take place in
Poughkeepsie on July 13, II and Is.
1t is her personal wish that she
should testify before the conclusion of
the suit. There is every likelihood that
Fred Beauvais will appear and testify
Tor Mrs. Stillman, it was ascertained
Yesterday from an authoritative source.
ihere has been much speculation as to
whether the guide would actually APP
pear before the referee If he does not
'es'l1y IN person his estimony will be
presented in the form of a deposition.
Counsel to Confer Tomorrow
An important conference Of counsel
ior the defense is scheduled to take
place at Yonkers tomorrow. 1t will be
Eeld in the Office of John F. Brennan,
chief counsel for Mrs. Stillman, and
viii be attended by John E. Mack,
vnarles j. Wallace, Abel I. Smith and
M. Brennan. The line of evidence to
De hrst offered at the hearings will be
oetermlned upon. Witnesses for the
aefense have been notified to be on
day.
Mr. Stillman may be recalled to the
stand by his counsel to answer three
questions put to him by Colonel Will
n nam j. Rand jr. at the last hearings.
rms will depend on ruling to be
handed down by the referee on a mo-
u ,on submitted by Colonel Rand that
MS client be allowed to answer the
nterrogations.

SALT is INJURIOUS

II while dining you daily with the

shake it, altogether.
That is the advice proffered by DIR
Charles Woodward in a paper read ID
Chicago at the convention of the ~
state Medical and Surgical Societies
of Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois,
recently Fifteen to thirty grains OF
sat a day" said he, is the maximum
amount that should be taken into the
human system. Yet people in general
are digging their own graves by eat
ing too much salt. In fact, it is a
common thing for some persons to eat
from 100 TO 800 or even 400 grains OF
sail day, counting the amount found
in salt foods
And here is an opinion carefully;
dictated by DR.. Royal S. Copeland,
commissioner of the ci.y's department
of health:
"A man who sits down to the table
and begins his meal by shaking the
salt sprinkler over every article Of
food, on his plate is counting disease.
