dition had become such that 1 was
warned by my physician that it was
absolutely necessary that l leave busi-
ness and its usual responsibilities for
a time, under penalty of taking a per-
manent departure. / felt that it would
be absolutely impossible for me to cut
myself off from my business by taking

Tor desperate case, / decided to leave

TO my family and to myself, I am

THOUSANDS TOLNE

Shrine Hosts to Find All Mod

man Towns.

The genii OF modern machinery is
busy dragging to Washington from
the four corners of the United States
long strings of steel Pullman homes"
which are to rear overnight Aladdin
cities housing from 10000 to 10000
inhabitants each in Benning, Ecking-
ton and Alexandria, Va. on the eve
of Shrine week.
When the sun sets one week from
today it will behold there nothing
more interesting than row after row
of newly laid steel rails. But the
next morning it will shine upon thriv-
ing cities, complete in every civic de-
tail from Fairgrounds and public
baths to well organized police and
fire departments. 1t will be, accord
ing to those who have seen the plans
in advance, the triumph of American
railroading
Shriners from the south and south
west may set up house in the Pull
man car that brought them here and
call Alexandria home" during the
week of the convention. Similar ar
rangements have been made at Ben
ming and lexington for caravans from
the north and northwest. And nothing
has been spared to make these Pull
man cities as comfortable and safe
as the best protected home in Wash
ington.
SEQ I'm Alexandria.
In Alexandria alone 500 Pullma n
homes are to be parked. 1t is ex-
pected they will house close to 10000

precedented traffic and regular streets
have been laid out. There will be a
special police force and modern fire
department to guard the visitors from
those dangers and every convenience
of home will be installed.
There will be Fairgrounds for the
children when their parents think it
best not to bring them over to Wash
ington, and trained attendants will
care for them in the absence of their
parents. Dining car restaurants will
run full blast day and night. There
from ham sandwich to a welsh
rarebit from sun-up to sun-up. Shut
tie trains will run direct from the
Aladdin city to Union station and
the station at eth street and Virginia
avenue every fifteen minutes. 1t will
even be possible to buy necessary
articles of clothing almost within the
town limits.
TOO Cars at lexington.
Another 700 cars of the PAnnsyl-
vania and Baltimore and Ohio rail-
roads will occupy the yards at Eek
ington. 1t is expected that at least
40, 900 persons will spend at least part
of their time in them during the
Shrine convention. The Baltimore and
Ohio railroad has cleared out one of
it's huge warehouses there and turned
it into an attractive and complete res
taurant for the benefit of the visitors.
Just how many more cars will be di-
verted to Benning has not yet been
determined.
This plan will also relieve conges-
ton at Union station, where a capac-
ity crowd is expected to pass into the
city anyhow. No pains have been
spared by the terminal authorities
however, to keep the crowds moving
in and out in an orderly fashion
SPECIAL guards will be on duty day
and night and information booths will
be placed in different sections of the
big building, where strangers will be
given directions how to reach any
place or part of the city by the least
expensive and quickest route.

ONLY I AUTO|STS
IN TRAFFIC NET"
Few Arrests Include Owner
of Car Tagged "0ut of
Order; Gone for Tools"

With only seventeen arrests made
in the first precinct up to noon, the
motorists of Washington today dis
played a spirit of cooperation in
cbsying the special traffic regulations
for the Shrine convention.
! One policeman found a machine
parked on street. bearing this sign:
Out of order--gone for tools"
According to Capt. Z. W. Browne,
the officer waited and when the
driver returned he had no difficulty
in driving the car to the station,
where he left $40 collateral.
The third and sixth precincts,
ing area. did not find any violations
this morning.
Scores of motorists left their ma
chimes tucked safely away in the ga
RACES this morning and stretched
their limbs as they reached for
straps on the street cars. Others who
live in far-distant suburbs drove to
the edge of the forbidden zone and
walked the remainder of the way to
their offices.
Motorists Watch Arrows.
Motorists driving through the
downtown section had to proceed
cautiously and keep their eyes peeled
for the arrows on the lamp-posts
which indicated the one-way streets.
Police officials expressed the belief
at noon that the results obtained this
morning. were gratifying. considering
the drastic nature of the regulations
and the fact that scores of persons
have been accustomed day after day
to park in a certain place.
The no-parking area is bounded,
roughly. by 6th and Goth, B and K
streets, and within that territory there
are more than a score of one-way
streets.
The police. however, have tackled a
yellow arrow on practically every
lamp-post, and if you keep going in the
direction of the arrow you will not
come to collateral grief.

Threat to Lay Situation Before

BY the Associated Press.

PARIS, May 25.-The cabinet has
prior TO the departure Of President
Millerand on a ten-day trip. The pur-
pose of the meeting Is TO consider the
procedure to be followed in the cases
of Marcel Cachin and his fellow COM
munists,. charged with acts endanger-
ing the safety of the republic.
1t was the refusal of the senate to
try the communists as a high court
that precipitated the resignation last
night of Premier Poincare and his
ministers, which the president re-
fused to accept. The charges against
the communists still stand, in spite
of the senate's decision, which was
simply on the method of procedure.
and the ministers tonight are to de-
eide whether the case shall be
brought before the assizes court or
the action abandoned entirely.
Hooted by Communists.
The entire chamber of deputies,
with the exception of the communists,
gave Premier Poincare a great ova-
tion when he entered the chamber to-
day for the continuation OF yester-
days interpretations on the Ruhr. The
communists hooted the premier, but
this seemed only to increase the en-
thusiasm of the remainder of the dep
uties.
Continuance in Office OF the cabinet
was definitely decided upon last night.
il was said at the foreign Office today.

cal circles that the situation cannot
