HyIan Would Recall =. S. High
Court if He Loses Transit Suit

Mayor Hylan issued a conditional ul-
tmatum to the Supreme Court of the
United States yesterday. At the meet
ing of the committee of the whole OF
the Board Of Estimate the Mayor de-
clared that the city was going to fight
the Transit Commission and "the trac-
ton crowd all the way to The highest
court, and if the Supreme Court should
decide against the city he might
recommend the recall of judges under
the referendum and recall system
The Mayor expressed the opinion
that a conspiracy was on foot to de-
prive the city of its interest in the
subways and turn it over to a private
corporation. ..
"We keep hearing from the Transit
Commission and in some newspapers"
said the Mayor, "that the city has no
money to construct subways. There is
a continued propaganda spread about
that the city is not in financial condi-
tion to construct subways. This is

Seymour l.. J. Cox, Texas millionaire
oil promoter and aviation enthusiast
wearing trim leather puttees and
broad brimmed felt hat, was compla-
Gently surveying Broadway from the
curb in front OF the Hotel Astor early
last night when four strangers walked
up and one of them tapped him on
the arm.
The strangers told him that he was
under arrest on Federal warrant is
sued at Houston, rex, his home town.
The strangers introduced themselves
as Lieutenant James j. Gegan and De
tectives Reilly and Brown, of the
Bomb Squad. and Postal Inspector C. j..
Weldon. They suggested that he come
along without fuss. The Texan, smil.
ing and unperturbed, turned and asked:
(which way, gentlemen ?" He was
taken to Police Headquarters.
The warrant charges Cox with frauds
in the sum of 81 1,500,UcO. He is said
to have obtained this sum through the
sale of fraudulent oil stocks and to
have used the mails TO accom- mplish his
purpose.
dhSS iIEccb Lightly
Upon reaching Headquarters the oil
promoter was outwardly as calm as at
the moment when accosted by the four
men, and took his arrest lightly. He
said that the only time that be had
been arrested before was for speeding,
and in answer to question regarding
his glossy puttees said that all the
prominent business men of Houston
wore them and that he had to continue
wearing them wherever he went,
Broadway or no Broadway.
When the Federal warrant WAS issued
in Houston on February %. Cox, it
was said, WAS nowhere to be found.
He wasn't TO be located in the Offices
OF the Texas Realization Corporation,
his Houston company or in Houston,
or in the State Of Texas. A quiet
search for him has been under way
ever since, it is said, with New York
detectives active during the last few
days. Their activity ended at the mo-
ment Lieutenant Gegan and his COM
panions caught sight of the neatly at
tired Mr.. Cox in front Of the Astor.

was signed by United States Commits

attempts to damage the railway, which
they had succeeded in doing twice be-
fore. The line, however, had been re-
paired on both occasions.

was agreed to by the Senate this after
noon after long argument.
Senator Swanson, OF Virginia. Demo-
crat, one of the leaders of the treaty
opposition, proposed the agreement
after conference with Senator LODGE
and others, and it met no objection.
Had an agreement not been reached
Senator Lodge would have forced a
night session.
1t is expected that the Robinson
amendment Will be defeated by de-
cisive vote. The author will then offer
it again as reservation It will be
turned down also as a reservation, it
is believed, although its supporters are
hoping to muster enough strength for
it at some stage of the proceedings
before the final vote on the treaty to
force Senator Lodge to accept it in
order to get the two-thirds needed for
ratification.
Hope to Avoid Reservations
The Administration leaders do not
believe they will be compelled to ac-
cept this or any other reservation, al
though the situation admittedly con-
tinues to be close.
Further conferences were held to-
day among the opponents of all reser-
vations in the hope of working out
some plan to get rid of the Brandegee
reservation which was put on by the
Foreign Relations Committee. Indica-
tlons continue that this movement will
not be pressed to a conclusion because
TWO or three Republicans who are now
for the treaty may be driven to vote
against it if this is done and the reser-
walton struck out
If the vote on the Robinson amend
ment shows clearly that its support
ers cannot muster one more than a
third of the Senators likely to vote on
the treaty-in other words, cannot get
thirty-two votes-it is expected the
fight over the ratification will draw
rapidly toward a conclusion. How
ever, the opposition is trying to keep
up the debate for some days longer.
The opponents hope by delaying tactics
to sway public opinion in their direc-
ton. especially on the Pacific Coast.
Up to date they have failed to convert
Republican Senators in the Pacific
Coast states. Senator Hiram johnson,
of California, remains the only Repub-
lican in that region who will vote
against ratification.
Johnson and Borah Speak
In an effort to make votes for the
Robinson amendment and against the
treaty the Senators who are engineer
ing the antitrcaty struggle put for
ward their heaviest guns to-day. SEN
