Ward Hearing to Go On,
Writ Refused by Court
Appellate Division Rules Facts
Do Not Justify Interference
With Proceedings

The hearing on the charge of con-
spring to defeat the ends of justice
brought by District Attorney Weeks Of
Westchester County against George S.
Ward and others connected with the
Ward murder case, will be continued
next week at White Plains. The ap-
plication by Wards counsel for an
alternative writ of prohibition which,
if granted, would have stopped the
conspiracy proceeding, was denied in a
decision handed down yesterday by the
Appellate Division Of the Supreme
Court.
The speedy decision on the applica-
tion was a surprise, since counsel had
been given two days in which to file
briefs. The immediate filing Of argu-
ments on" both sides enabled the court
to hand down the decision yesterday.
"The application for an alternative
writ of prohibition is denied in the
exercise Of our discretion the deci-
sion orders, and continues: "The facts
presented are insufficient to justify
the issuance of such writ. 1t should
be granted only in case of extreme
necessity and when no other remedy
can be had. Should these proceedings
here complained of lead to the petit
toners arrest, the law affords ample
protection"
The application was argued by for
mer Supreme Court Justice Woodward,
and opposed by John E. Mack, asso-
ciate counsel with Mr.. Weeks.

Unofficial Representative ON
Reparation Commission
on Way to Washington

Rules Of the immigration Depart
ment were suspended yesterday when
the liner France, of the French Line,
arrived, in order to admit fifteen-year-
old Andrew D'Orn, who was racing to
the bedside of his dying father, LOUIS
D'Orn, sugar planter of Martinique,
near death at Madison, N. j.
The boy, although French subject
of an age requiring guardian, was al
lowed to enter the country by a spe-
cial board of inquiry, which convened
aboard the France at the order of
Byron Uhl, Assistant Commissioner of
immigration at Ellis Island. Tie left
Immediately for New Jersey in the
hope of seeing his father while he still
lived.
Mr.. D'Orn was brought to this coun-
try on May IS, TO be attended BY
American specialists in the disease
from which ne is suffering. He was
hurried from Martinique on the yacht
Caffiana, which belongs to Elisha
Walker, president of Blair & Co., his
nephew, and taken to the home of his
mother, Mrs. St. Ange D'Orn, in Mad
ison.
Delayed on Lafayette
The planters son was in France at
school, but when Mr.. D'Orn's condition
improved after reaching here, it was
not until two weeks ago that the boy
was hastily summoned home upon his
fathers taking turn for the worse.
He booked passage on the Lafayette,
but that vessel was damaged in storm
when a few hours out and was forced
to return, SO Andrew had to wait a
week in Havre before getting passage
on the France.
immigration inspectors, who boarded
the ship at Quarantine, detained the
boy, and he was Held pending an in
quiry, but the situation was explained
by Grenville Vernon, cousin, former
ly member of the staff of The Trib-
une, who was waiting to meet him.
AS a consequence the authorities took
quick action and Andrew was released.
Another passenger on the France
who had difficulty with Ellis Island Of
ficials was Henry Bourasse, publisher
of 'Le Devoir," of Montreal, and leader
Bourasse was without proper passport
vises, and was detained until assurance
was given that he was merely on his
way home. He had been told, he said,
before he left Montreal that he would
need no passports to return through
the United States, and when he learned
this was not SO in Havre it was too
close to sailing time for him to get
the necessary documents. Mr. Bourasse
was detained for an hour and three
quarters before being admitted, and
was then forced to pay the SIS fee he
would have had to pay for a wise in
France.

Bonus Is Regarded
AS Killed Off for
Present Congress
Senators Are Assured That
President Will Veto Bill
as Now Drawn; Votes
Lacking to Override 1t

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 22.-Signs are
multiplying that the soldiers bonus
bill is doomed at this session. Presi-
dent Harding has advised certain Sen
ators that he will veto the McCumber
bill as it stands, or any bill which
does not provide for the method of
raising money to meet the bonus. In
asmuch as no such bill is in sight
Senate leaders see no escape from q
veto.
The information that the President
definitely has made UP his mind to
veto the bill has been conveyed from
the White House to the Senate through
several of the members of that body
While the President has not declared
publicly that he will veto the Nc
Cumber bill, Senate leaders feel sure
veto awaits the measure if it passes.
Furthermore, canvass of the SEN
ate has been made to find out whether
a veto would be sustained. 1t is under
stood that this canvass has been made
by opponents of the bonus. Thirty SEN
ators have been found who will refuse
to vote to override veto, and while
three more would be needed, it is gen
orally believed that if the President
does interpose a veto it will be
sustained. A number of Senators on
the Republican side, who are mildly
for the bonus, would hesitate to vote
to override veto.
In view of the attitude of the Presi-
dent and the doubt of being able to
overcome a veto, talk in Senate circles
to-day was that the bonus bill was
practically dead for this session. This
does not mean that it will not be taken
up later and discussed.
Senate Republican leaders have not
entirely abandoned their plan to talk
bonus over with the President and try
to agree with him on the form Of bill
They still hope to induce him, if he
will not make such an agreement, TO
recommend that the bill be put over
until next session, thus helping to
save certain political faces. With the
railroad and coal strike controversy
at it's height, however, there is no open
ing for the leaders to go over the
bonus question with the Executive.
Indications are there will be anpt1e I
fiare-up of discussion over the bonus
bill in the Senate soon. A number of
the representatives of the veterans Or
carnations have visited the Capitol
this week and have indicated their un.
easiness over the delay in. action on
the bill. They want the tariff laid
aside and the bonus bill brought for
ward. Friends of the bonus are await
ing a favorable opportunity to stir uI
the issue on the floor Of the Senate.

Of seven men by an Eskimo who ran

Bay, four months ago.

his fellows he had killed seven men,
and declared ne intended to wipe out
the rest of the island" Twenty-fous
hours later the mounted police recap,

Sky Cops VIII Trail Offenders
AndArresG 'Ene When ThevLand
No Attempt Will Be Made to Swat Outlaws ON the
Wing, Officials Explain, but Police
Planes viii Be Faster

The Aviation Division Reserve of the
New York Police Departm ent---that's
the official, formal name of the thing
to which New York's sky cops are at
tached-has become real confidential.
The Aviation Reserve Division made 1t
clear last night just how the depart
ment scout planes, fitting through
space above Broadway and Forty sec
ono Street, are to capture all offending
aviators. -
It's all quite simple. In fact, it is SO
simple that it seems that it was hardly
necessary for an official announcement
to have had to come from the office of
Special Deputy Police Commissioner
Rodman Wanamaker. The answer to
the problem is this: The wary police
pilots, in speedy machines, will keep
after an airplane fugitive until he is
all tired out and then, when he is
forced to land-the exact place of
landing may vary from time to time
the relentless sky cops will swocp
down and grab him. Nothing could be
easier.
In the official language of the Off
c al announcement the Aviation Divi-
sion Reserve of the Police Department
explains its contemplated aviator
catching scheme in this fashion:
"For public information, this Office
is very glad to answer the question
of how arrests will be made OF pilots
flying. The answer to this is very
simple one. Our. patrol is so situated
that when our scout planes give chase
to any lawless aviator they will be
speedy enough to keep up with him
until he is forced to land, when the

police plane will also land, and the
pilot put under arrest.
police planes are equipped with
machine guns, and all flying police Of
ficcrs are armed, but only in case of
extreme necessity will such force be
used"
In the departmental announcement
it is made clear that air rules are to
be rigidly enforced and that those so
injudic!ous as to break them won't do
so second time. In fact, after a
time it will become so that an aviator
according to the announcement, will
no more think of breaking some traffic
regulation than a Manhattan motorist
would.
The Aviation Reserve performed it's
first active duty of the season yester-
day patrolling the city from three
points. No aviators were captured, be-
cause there were no offenses COM
mitted
On the Jersey shore, it was said, Cap
tain Bridgeman was on the lookout for
airmen who were not obeying the code
regarding planes flying at low alti-
tudes over the City of New York. At
Fort Hamilton Major Van De Water
was patrolling the harbor, on the look
out for any hydro-airplanes which
might try to escape the police Gordon
thrown over the city, to make arrests
of aviators flying low or Stunning"

partment, in command of Maio.
