WILSON DENOUNCES
REED AS MARPLOT
Writes Letter Asking Defeat
of Senator to Redeem
Party's Reputation.
SENT TO LON V. STEPHENS
Hopes Former Missouri Cover
nor's Influence Will Effect
Desired Result.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-. May (Associated
Press) Referring to Senator James A.
Reed as ''marplot" former President
Wilson, in a letter to former Gov. Lon
v. STEPHENS, made public to-day. asked
the defeat of Missouris senior Senator
to redeem the reputation" Of the Demo-
cratic party.
II was Mr.. Wilson's third letter on the
subject Of the Democratic nomination for
United States Senator, sought by Mr.
Reed and Breckenridge Long, formerly
Third Assistant Secretary of State in
the Wilson Administration.
The letter was in reply to one by Mr..
Stephens in which the former Governor
referred to a letter Mr.. Wilson recently
wrote to the st. Louis Globe Democrat
attacking Senator Reed. Mr.. Reed re-
piled to this letter. in when ne ques-
toned Mr.. Wilson'S memory. The letter
to Mr.. Stephens follows:
MY DEAR Gov. STEPHENS
your letter of April ed has gratified
me. / am glad to be sustained in my
own judgment of Reed by your own
closer knowledge of him, and / shall
hope and confidently expect to see him
repudiated by the Democrats at the
primaries. Certainly Missouri cannot
afford to be represented by such mar
plot and 1t might check the enthusiasm
OF Democrats throughout the country II
their comrades in Missouri should no.
redeem the reputation Of the party by
substituting for Reed a man OF the true
breed of Democratic principle. ] am
sure your own great influence will con-
tribute to the desired and expected re-
demption.
please accept assurances OF my en-
tire confidence in the Missouri Demo
Gratis. and believe me, with best wishes.
Sincerely yours.
"WoopRow WILSON"

primary is August /.
In his opening campaign address Sen-
ator Reed defended his course and
asserted Mr.. Wilson was ''the boy who
is conducting the campaign IL Missouri
for the other side"
Senator Reed when shown copy OF
the Wilson letter read 1t several times
and said: II have no comment to make
ON this at present"
He declined to say whether state
ment would be forthcoming later.

REV. G. G. RICHMOND
QUITS EVANSTON
Leaves Wyoming City to Devil
After Being Knocked Into
Gutter by Mayor.
HAS HAD STORMY CAREER
Ousted From Two Episcopal
Pulpits on Charges, He
Became a Baptist.
HAS HAD STORMY CAREER

Special Dispatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD
CHEYENNE, Wyo.. May s.-Denounced
by Mayor John T. Romick of Evanston.
Wyo.. who knocked him into the gutter
recently. as "actuated by low minded
ness and vindictiveness little short of
criminal the Rev George Chalmers
Richmond, whose troubles in Rochester
and Philadelphia some time ago were
only exceeded by his career in Evanston,
.o-day quit that town for all time, aban-
doned his effort to drive the devil from
IL and announced that he would take up
his residence in Denver at least Tor the
summer He did not say what occupa-
ton he would follow.
''The trouble between myself and Rich
mond eliminated when he applied to me
a term of most terrible character" said
Mayor Romick to-day. IF the people
outside OF Evanston could realize that
Richmond's attacks were not on the law
violator. not on the bootlegger, the pro-
fessional gambler and the tinhorn, but
upon men who represent the best citi-
zenship, they would conclude, as we have
here, that If he is not insane at least
he Is actuated by lowmindedness and
vindictiveness little short of criminal"
George Chalmers Richmond was sus-
pended for two years from the ministry
of the Episcopal diocese Of Pennsylvania
in 1917 after he had been found guilty
by an ecclesiastical court of nine of 125
charges that were preferred against him
as a result of controversies with Bishop
Rhinelander and the late Bishop Alex
ander Mackay-Smith. Less than two
years later he was received into the
ministry of the Baptist ChuI ch, and
preached at different times in Calvary
Baptist Church of this city ard In the
Greene Avenue Church. Brooklyn.
Richmonds stormy ministerial career
started in December 1908. when he was
custed as curate of St. Johns Episco-
pal Church. Stamford, Conn. by the
Rev. Charles Morris Addison, the rec
tor Richmond had stated from the
pulpit that a man who accepted a salary
of $685. 900 was thief.
