Officials Of at least three Govern
ment departments, who were consider
ably fiurried to-day when they learned
that Charles w. Morse had left the
country, have settled down tonight to
await his return to a United States
port from France.
Mr.. Morse, financier and shipbuilder,
against whom the Shipping Board has
Compiled evidence which it intends to
submit to a Grand Jury in Washing
ton, will not be forcibly arrested or
detained, either. in France or on the
high seas, as was reported. 1T was
learned on high authority to-day that
instead he will be politely but firmly
requested by French authorities to
take return vessel for the trip home
as speedily as possible.
Action will be taken by French au-
thorities on suggestion from Washing
ton. and on the ground that Mr.. Morse
is an undesirable foreigner and not well
come in the French republic. Under
French immigration laws any foreigner
not regarded as desirable can be sent
back ito his native country on the next
available boat
There Is no charge against Mr.. Morse,
and the Government has not yet pre-
sented any data to the Grand jury The
District of Columbia Grand Jury will not
meet until December 8. Consequently
Mr. Morse cannot be extradited or any
equivalent action taken, though Govern
mcnt officials say his presence will be
secured tS
Last night the Department of Justice
sent q number OF hurried wireless mes
sages to the liner Paris, approaching the
French coast, and requested the navy
to have destroyer meet the vessel and
take Morse Oft, If possible. 1t was
found, however, that such a course
would be a violation OF international
law and no action was taken
The Department of Justice has a num-
ber of operatives In France and they
will doubtless be on the dock at Hnvre
when the Paris docks tomorrow about
noon.

Public Demand Checked UP.

Public Demand Checked UP.
Sentiment for outlawing the SUBJ
marine and poison gas was checked
up for the American advisory COM
mittee and the American delegates by
the subcommittee on public informa-
ton of the advisory committee. A
daily bulletin showing public. senti-
n1ent on this and other questions be-
fore the conference, as interpreted
from newspapers and magazines, was
framed by the subcommittee on public
information.
1t may be several weeks before
either proposal is introduced formally
to the delegates OF this and other ma
tions In the conference proper. Mean
while sentiment for action by the con-
ference to minimize the horrors Of
modern warfare will be growing in
the United States and in other coun-
tries. especially in Great Britain,
whore there is a strong demand for
the complete abolition OF the use OF
the submarine.
American delegates to the confer
ence, however. are expected to oppose.
on advice of their naval experts, the
complete outlawing OF the submarine
on the ground that It is invaluable TO
this country to guard our long coast
lines. The American delegation is be-
lieved 20 favor the reduction Of the
submarine tonnage proposed in the
Hughes programme and the formula
ton Of rules OF warfare to restrict the
activities of undersea boats.
Military Against Poison Gas.
In the Hughes programme England
and the United States are allowed each
10000 tons Of submarines. How much
of a reduction from this tonnage will
be agreed TO by the American delega-
tlon Is at present pure speculation.
The extent Of the reduction, II is pre-
dicted, will depend upon the support
which Is given during the next few
weeks 70 the movement TO completely
abolish the use of the submarine
weapon.
Although American naval men are
reluctant TO part with the submarine.
American military men are anxious to
outlaw poison gas. Military members
OF the advisory committee voted unan-
imously to outlaw gas. The proposal
was laid before the advisory commit
tee by subcommittee headed by Gen.
Pershing. Military men the world
over are believed to he in accord with
the views OF the Americans. 1t is this
which leads TO the belief that inter-
national action will be taken by the
conference proper 10 put into effect

cooperation OF the French Government
which would effectually restrain or guide
the movements OF the Anencier and ship
builder. II is understood on good author
ty that the suggestion has already been
made through diplomatic channels to the
French Government that France give her
assistance by taking such action as is
possible TO secure the return OF Mr..
Morse TO the United States.
Elmer Schlesinger, general counsel for
the Shipping Board. after conferring
with Fletcher Dobyns, special assistant
TO the Attorney General in charge of the
Morse case, said this afternoon the only
statement he cared to make was that the
Government would do everything within
it, power to bring Morse back to
America.
A similar statement was made by the
Department OF Justice. William j.
Burns. chief, of the Bureau OF Investi-
cations, has taken personal charge OF
the case so fer as the Department OF
Justice ia concerned. and it was stated
the return of Mr.. Morse would be Sc
cured.
Secretary OF the Navy DENLY said no
request had been made for the use OF
destroyers TO intercept the Paris and
that such a course was impossible under
international law.
Sons Deny Evasion.
Sons OF Charles w. Morse Issued a
statement tonight through Wilton j..
Lambert, their counsel, stating the elder
Morse had not sought to evade any Gov
ernment action and was willing to re-
turn TO this country at any time his
presence was desired Sweeping denial
was made of reports that he had fled
in diRuise. and it was stated chat Morse
senior and the other Morses were ready
ana willing at any time to meet any
Government action or procedure.
Attention has been called" the state
ment said. ito articles appearing in the
daily press, the tendency of which Is to
give the impression that Mr. Morse has
surreptitiously and in disguise sailed
from the United States to avoid some
proposed Grand Jury investigation. The
truth Is he sailed on the Paris Friday
OF last week under a passport issued to
him in his own name and vised by
Government officials at the pier. without
any knowledge OF the Governments In
tentions beyond the fact they have been
making an investigation for over year.
He did not know the Government
proposed to lay the matter bcfora tho
Grand Jury. nor does he. or any member
OF mis- 1anlly KNOW except Dy TumOrS
that there is any such intention. He
could not have anticipated that Mr.
Dobyns, special counsel for the Shipping
Board. would do the unprecedented
thing of announcing his purpose pub
licly, which announcement was made
five days after he had sailed.
"The sailing last month was his third
sailing to Europe within the last twelve
months for the treatment OF n malady
which seems to be growing daily more
serious. The last sailing was under the

The conviction that the Imperial
Japanese Government will prefer to
retain its place as one OF the five
leading Powers of the world instead
of being forced into international
isolation has increased the conf
dence of the delegates from other
nations that an amicable agreement
will be reached on naval armaments.
The American delegates do not
even admit there is a deadlock over
this phase of conference undertak.
ings. While failing to perceive the
logic OF the Japanese demand for
greater concessions than are pro.
vided In the Hughes formula, there
is no tendency on the part of the
delegates from any country to quar-.
rel with the perfectly natural ambi.
tions OF the military element OF Old
Japan for the maximum of naval ia.
cilities. But there Is a pronounced
impression that the Japanese mill.
tary element will not decide the pres.

that the Mikado's Government will

cIayed in the state senate among the
employees, just as vigorously and in
tensely as among the members them
selves.
Two candidates have already de-

for the job of sergeant-at-arms for
the next term, two years hence.
H C. Cooper. chief doorkeeper,
claims the support of a majority of
senator's, who, he says, have promised
him their votes at the next session.
Cooper is popular with the rest of
the employees and the senators them
selves, as well as with those whose
business takes them to the hall OF
the senate during the session. and has
been an efficient doorkeeper. His

out to sell memberships in the Non

WON'T PAY EXPENSES
Senate Refuses Appropriation for
Delegates 10 Agricultural Meeting.

The item which held the conference
committee on the appropriation bill
for the state executive and judicial
budget for hours last night, was the
appropriation of $4,000 to pay the ex-
penses of delegates to the annual con-
vention of the state board of agricuI-
ture at Topeka.
Several senators who are members
and officials of the different farm or
CARNATIONS, deplored on the floor the
action of the house in refusing to
grant the appropriation. The senate
ways and means committee fought for
the amendment for hours, but was I'M
successful.
The appropriation has not been re-
fused before in the past fifty years.
