Mr.. Nelson died in Pullman berth
at SIS p. m. when the train was about
II miles out of Baltimore, passing

DR.. E. M. Ewers, of New York, who
happened to be on the train, attended
him at death.
Knute Nelson was on his way home
to Minnesota to spend the summer al
his farm near Alexandria. Late in
February he had suffered severe
attack of the "fiu," which was much
more serious than was generally
known at that time.
He had apparently recovered from
the effects of that illness, however
and since the adjournment of Con
gress on March he had been resting
at his Washington home preparatory
to making the trip westward.
When he left Washington Saturday
he appeared in better health than he
had been for some time. 1t was real
lied, however, that the flu attack hac
left him very much weakened. 1t i:
believed that the excitement incident
to the journey homeward proved TOT
much for the aged statesman.
Senator Nelson died suddenly. He
wanted to die that way-with hi:
boots on-the comfortable square-toet
shoes he always wore.
He was more than usually vigorou!
for a man 80 years old, and until h
was stricken with influenza in March
his health was good, except for ;
bronchial infection from which he hat
suffered more or less for years. Blu
none of his friends thought he woulc
die so soon.
When he boarded the train Senate
Nelson told Representative Harold
Knutson of Minnesota that he was
feeling much better and that he would
soon be his old self again.

One of the best ways Of increasing

U. S. SHIPS TO STAY DRY
Lasker Declares No Orders to Resume
Sale of Liquors Will be Issued.

American ships on the high seas
will continue dry despite the supreme
courts ruling that outside the three
mile limit vessels are outside the Vol
stead law.
This was the opinion of government
officials in practically all departments
having to do with shipping or liquor.
Although the court theoretically
opened the way to making the Attain
tic ocean a great "booze way" the
practical difficulties confronting Amer
lean ship owners make it extremely
unlikely, officials said, that any great

FULLEST PUBLICITY
PLAVIVED IN PROBE
Of NAVAL DISASTER

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1--we
are determined to get at the facts
of the disaster to American Destroy
ers off the California coast" Secre-
tary of the Navy DENLY declared to
the United Press today.
The naval secretary made this
statement while holding almost con-
slant conferences with Admiral
Eberle, chief of naval opera tons, in
connection with the wreck of the
destroyers.
DENLY and high officials of the
navy department here are thorough
ly aroused over the mysterious ma
val disaster, and the investigation
into the circumstances into the
wreck promises to be one of the most
searching of naval history.
The investigation ordered by Den
by may bring to light sensational
facts as to the causes of the naval
tragedy, but regardless of this the
probe will be pursued with ''pitiless
publicity" and ruthless vigOr.
u have ordered that the fullest
publicity be given to the investiga-
lion by the court of inquiry estab-
lished TO probe the wreck" Score.
tary DENLY said This is a very I'M
to custom, but / have taken this
step because of the mysterious cir
cumstances surrounding the wreck
and the sensational rumOrs that
have since arisen"

very we'll oppose the world court.
But he need not esnOHSe it or carry
on the kind of campaign winch Mr.
Harding did. Nor has any member
of the present cabinet made any
speeches of length about the world
court since Mr.. Coolidge assumed
the duties of the presidency. They
are not themselves. informed of his
wishes and they maintain, therefore.
a discreet silence.
The president has two courses
open to him in handling the snarl
that has arisen in the Republican
party over the world court. He can
do as Mr.. Harding did and champion
the mea sure even more strongly,
using the argument that he is COM
mitted to the policies of his predeces-
sor or he can take the position which
so many of the opponents OF the
world court urged Mr.. Harding. to
take, namely. to leave the matter
entirely to the United States SEN
ate where it was sent in the closing
days of the last session of congress.
Keeps Himself Clear
BY announcing that there is moth
ing more for the chief executive to
do but to await the action o. the
senate. Mr. Coolidge can keep him
self out of the controversy. AS for
the senate, there is two-thirds vote
in that body which can adopt the
world court proposal. but it means a
coalition of Democrats and Repub-
leans.
The opposition of nearly half the
Republicans in the senate would be
inevitable and the only question for
the party leaders to decide is wheth-
er they want to risk open warfare
in the party itself or shelve the
whole question until after the 1924
presidential campaign. They do not,
however, have freedom of decision
on that point as the Democrats would
not let the world court proposal
sleep in the foreign relations com
mittee without making speeches and
directing the attention Of the pro-
court wing of the Republican party
to the neglect of a vital policy of
the Harding administration.
1t seems certain that Mr.. Coolidge
will leave the matter entirely to the
Republican leaders of the senate and
will not get into the melee if he can
possibly help it. Mr.. Coolidge isn't
seeking political trouble. He wants
to keep the waters calm so that he
can enter the convention with the
minimum of opposition and the max
ifllum of support.

Charging thnt the Ku Klux Khan
administration faction headed by DR.
H. w. Evans is trying to get" him
because he is a supporter Of Emperor
William Joseph Simmons, William
e. Thompson, chief of staff Of the
Simmons faction, sought an injunc
ton from Fulton superior court Sat
urday, which would prevent the
Evans faction from interfering nth
his president status as a member OF
Atlanta Khan No. I. He charged that
a plan is under way to transfer him
to the national organization in order
that the Evans leaders may try him
and Danish him from the order.
This suit followed closely the sign.
ing of an order by Judge George L.
Bell. directing six imperial officers,
headed by Evans, to appear before
ID. Q. Smith, a court commissioner,
and make dispositions regarding a
suit for receivership filed some
months ago by David M. Ritten
house, of Philadelphia, and others.
Mr. Thompson's action was di-
rected against Imperial Wizard
Evans. W. J. Mahoney, F. L. Saw
age. II. h. Ramsey and r. G.
Christian. The suit was filed by
Attorney w. S. Coburn, who re-
fused to comment on it. Judge Bell
signed an order preventing the adj
ministration group from changing
Mr.. Thompson status pending a
hearing.
Judge Bell ordered the khan lead
ers to make dispositions in the re-
ownership suit after lengthy
hearing in chambers.
The only legal issue raised in the
receivreship hearing was whether or
not a bill of exceptions filed by the
Khan August 5 constituted a
legal supersedeas to the notice to
produce previously brought by the
plaintiffs to compel the khan Off
Gals to appear before the commits
sioner. The bill of exceptions took
exception to Judge John d. Hum
phries' refusal on July 8 to grant
an injunction to prevent the hear
ing before the commissioner.
Attorneys for the Rittenhouse
faction contended that the bill of
exceptions did not contain a super
sedeas and this contention was up
held by Judge Bell.
Khan officials, involved in the
order, include Imperial Wizard
Fl. w. Evans. NJ. n. Furney, khan
cashier; H.. X. Ramsey, secretary;
II. c. Montgomery, r. J. McKinnon
and Brown HARDWOOD. The order
