the stand to-day in the trial of Carl
Neuf and Franz thinner, the two Amer

mans, attempted to arrest Bergdoll at
Eberbach last January. Bergdoll tes-
tilted that thinner leaned out of the
automobile and pointed a revolver at
him. Neuf, he further testified, aimed
his revolver at him and fred, the first
bullet hitting young woman, Lima
Butt; the second entering one Of the
tires.
thinner denied having drawn a
weapon. He said if he had he would
have fired.
Neuf made a long statement, detail
ing the nature of his activities as de-
tective for the American military
forces at Coblenz. He asserted that he
had succeeded, with the aid of the Ger
man authorities, in apprehending nu-
merous American deserters in various
sections of Germany. Neuf said he had
been on Bergdoll's trail for long time,
and that he had sought German po-
lice wise for his American passport in
order to avoid complications at Eber-
bach. He had sought to kidnap the
American Stacker in order to forestall
escape to Stuttgart, as Neuf believed

Cardinal Gibbons Worse;
Action Of Heart Weaker
No Immediate Danger, but His
Symptoms Are Not Encour-
apinu. Saw phvsiciana

BALTIMORE, March 22.-Physicians
attending Cardinal Gibbons announced
tonight that his illness had taken an
unfavorable turn. They said they be-
lieved there was no immediate danger,
but they made it plain that they were
not encouraged by his symptoms.
Monsignor John Bonzano, the apos-
tolic delegate at Washington, visited
the Cardinal this afternoon.
The unfavorable change in the
Cardinals condition occurred last Sun
day night, when his heart action be-
came weaker and his temperature
dropped to a serious degree. No an
nouncement of his condition was made
until tonight for fear of alarming his
friends unnecessarily.
AS no marked improvement has been
shown in the last twenty-four hours,
however, it was decided to let the
friends of the Cardinal know the un-
favorable state Of affairs.
Cardinal Gibbons, who is in his
eighty-seyenth year, suffered physi-
cal breakdown last fall.

Will Retire When He Re-

pines About September 2
Aims of Trip Outlined
Report to Guide Harding OH
the Question of Granting
~ independence TO Islands
From The T,16une's WASHINGTON B,.reo,

From The T7ibune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, March 22.-Major
General Leonard Wood will retire from
the army upon his return to this coun-
try after completing his investigation
of Philippine affairs and will become
provost of the University Of Pcnnsyl-
vania.
Secretary of War Weeks announced
to-day that General Wood had indi-
Gated his desire to accept the offer Of
the Pennsylvania institution, and that
he had informed the General his re-
tirement from active military service
would be authorized on his return from
the Philippines unless some national
emergency prevented.
The special government mission to
the Philippines, Secretary Weeks said,
would engage the attention of General
Wood and his chief associate, W. Cam
eron Forbes, former governor-general
of the islands, for a period of five
months. Three months of this time
will be devoted to a comprehensive
study of conditions in the archipelago,
and the remaining two months to
travel between the islands and this
country. This program would enable
General Wood to return to this country
by September 2, in time to assume his
duties with the Pennsylvania Univer-
Secretary Weeks said it would be the
duty of the WoodForbes mission to
ascertain definitely for the Harding
Administration the qualifications Of
the Filipino people for self-govern-
ment
"The former President recommended
independence for the Philippine
islands," Secretary Weeks said, "and
stated that they had demonstrated
their capacity for self-government.
There is some evidence that he was
mistaken, and it will be expected of
General Wood and Governor Forbes to
there with a view to advising new
formula on which to base our Philip
pine policy for several years to come.
"In every political campaign IN the
Philippines the leaders have advanced
the, question of independence, which is
popular election platform, and then
later there has developed difference
of opinion as to the advisability of
complete self-government. General
Wood and General FORBES are the best
informed men on Philippine affairs in
the country, and their study will pro-
vide us with expert knowledge on all
conditions there"
The American Investigators will sail
from San Francisco on mail steam
ship April 2. They contemplate visit
ing all the large centers of the islands
and will devote considerable attention
to the political, economic and military
conditions as they now exist in the pos
session.

From a Stat Correspondent


LAWRENCEvILLE, N. j.. March %
Professor Edwin H. pahlow and his
wife, Mrs. Gertrude Pahlow, both of
whom were dismissed last week from
the faculty of the fashionable Law
Senceville School, returned here in an
automobile at o'clock this afternoon.
They both issued prepared statements.
These statements we're given out at
the home of j. E. Hunfish, which is
Just off the campus of the Lawrence
Vile School. Professor Pahlow char
acterized the action of the board of
trustees in removing him as "unbe-
Hevabie," and said that Mrs. Pahlow's
name had been dragged into the case
notwithstanding the fact that he had
been told she had nothing to do with 81.
Mrs. Pahlow, in her statement. said
that she desired to repudiate the in
terview, purporting to be with her.
which was published in The Tribune
last Sunday, but restated much that
was attributed to her in that inter
view.
s'The attitude of the headmaster Of
Lawrenceville School," said Professor
Pahlow, land Of the members of the
board of trustees in the matter Of nv
departure from Lawrenceville is unbe-
lievable. They have allowed my wife's
name to be dragged into an affair in
which they had declared to me, of their
own volition. she had nothing whatever
to do; so that what was begun as an
endeavor to save Lawrenceville while
it was still worth saving has, by the
