j. S. RESENTMENT
SHOWN IN Staying
OF BUTCHKAV|TCH

Washington. April 10-The Amer
lean government again has made
manifest its deep resentment and abb
horrence at the political methods of
Lenine and Trtosky.
AS an avowed protest against the
execution Of the prelate Butchavitch,
the state department has withdrawn
the authorization under which Ekater-
ina kalinin, wife of the Russian
president, had planned to pay visit
to the United States.
In announcing their action today
department officials left no doubt Of
their aversion to any further thought
OF admitting to American hospitality
an emissary even indirectly connect
cd with the Soviet regime. They took
the position that even the ostensibly
humanitarian purpose Of her visit
would not counteract the feeling OF
repugnance against her because of
the execution of the vicar general.
1.-The Department of State" said the
tersely worded announcement, has
cancelled the authorization for visa
for Madame kalinin. wife OF the
president of the so-called Soviet Re
public Of Russia. The presence OF
Madame kalinin this country is rem
dered wholly undesirable by the deep
feeling which has been aroused by
the execution of Vicar General
Butchkavitch. The action OF the de-
partment is taken especially in pro-
test against this execution
Even before the death sentence OF
the prelate was carried into effect
many protests against the admission
of the Russian presidents wife had
reached the state department.

COMMONS VOTE
PUTS GOVERNMENT
IN SHAKY POSITION

London, April 10-(By A. P.-The
government sustained a surprise de-
feat in the House of Commons to-
night by small majority, seven in
thin house, on mere technical
point. This, in ordinary circum-
stances the government might ig
more. but in view of the fact that
once before during its brief life the
ministry had a narrow escape in the
house. in addition to several bad re-
verses in by-elections, it is impos
slble to say at the present time what
attitude the ministers will take with
regard to the defeat.
The debate on imperial trade had
ended, and question arose con-
corning the salaries paid to former
service men entering the civil SER
vice. The labor leaders were dis
pleased at the governments stand
on this question, and as a protest
opposed the motion that speaker
leave the chair to enable a discus
sion OF the estimates. This motion.
usually carried as matter of course
was to everybody's surprise. defeat

SNAC IN PROBE OF
Staying OF PETERS

Albany, n. Y. April 10-State in
vestigatiOn of the alleged Staying of
Clarence J. Peters. cx-marine. by
Walter S. Ward. millionaire bakers
son, blocked yesterday when Ward S
counsel obtained an Injunction re-
straining use as evidence of cable
grams which passed between Ward
and his family, received another set
back today when the Western Tn
ion Telegraph Company failed 10
turn over the documents upon va
eating OF the injunction by the ap-
pellate division.
The vacating order, Attorney Cen
eral Carl Sherman declared tonight
was obtained by the state expressly
to permit use Of the cablegrams as
evidence. They purported to show.
he explained. that Ward, shortly be-
fore Peters body was found sought
to negotiate substantial loan
through the Ward Baking Company
interests.
THE public ought to know that
after the vacating of the Injunction
"'iu tAiC iSSh1hCc VI ii new subpoena,
demanding the cablegrams, the West
ern Union Telegraph Company has
not yet complied" he declared
1T doesn't seem 10 me that the
Western Union should fight the bat
tie for Ward"
The cableerams passed between
George S. Ward. father Of Walter,
who is alleged to have shot Peters,
and Ralph Ward Walters brother.
while the father was in Europe.
Testimony given BY Ralph Ward a
week ago. disclosed that the subject
of the cables was a request by Walt
er that the Ward Baking Company
advance him a loan Of between $50
GOO and 100000
The elder Ward first cabled his
consent to the loan. Ralph testified,
but the same day sen, another cable
telling Ralph that if the money was
to be used to pay back others, Walt
er could not have it.
Ralph was unable to learn from
Walter what the money was to be
used for. so did not advance it to
him, his testimony disclosed.
The state investigators have
known of the existence of the cable
grams ever since they started on the
Ward case" Attorney General Shcr-
man explained Every effort has
been made to obtain copies of them
but the state has been blocked at
every turn. he continued.

Ill after the first three days of the

The action of the governor in these
instances are known as pocket v.toes."
A pocket veto" is where an act or re-
st I've comes TO the governor and the
Legislature adjourns before the ex-
piration of the period of five days
when the measure would become a law
without the signature of the governor.
A similar instance happened during
the administration Of Gov, Carl L. Mil

ry al the University of Maine. and as
Tire Legislature adjourned before the

Secrecy Features
Federal Grand Jury
Probe Rum-Running

Boston, April 10-The special fed
eral grand jury investigating an al
Nleged international rum running plot
in which the British steamer Avon
town played a leading part. heard IL
witnesses today and will conclude the
taking of evidence tomorrow.
Safeguarding the investigation with
greater precautions for secrecy than
in any similar session for years, the
federal authorities refused to di-
vulge even the names Of the Wit
nesses questioned. Instead of call
ing each witness by name when his
turn came to testify-the usual pro-
cedure in grand jury sessions-the
deputy marshaIs beckoned to the wit
ncsses or sought them out as needed
in the waiting crowd. OF those
heard today. five were from New
port. L. L. and as many from Provi-
dencc and Pawtucket.
owen Mckenna. a special treasury
agent who worked on the case for
weeks before Il raid on the Allston

fore the public eye, appeared before
the grand jury with a collection of
books and documents captured at the
Costello place.
These. it WAS said. contained the
accounts of the alleged rum running,
ANA revealed many useful leads TO the
authorities Mrs. Costello and Alex
andev Goldberg and John ferlo, both
Of Montreal. were arrested at the
apartment charged with conspiracy
to violate the Nulstead act. Costello
himself escaped, and was said TO
have taken refuge on the steamer

Block Island, with $oU0.Do0 worth Of
Glasgow likuor in her holds.
Il had been intim,-ted that several
Boston politicians would he sum

these did not appear today.
The only excitement Of the day
outside the jury room-came when
word was passed around that q young
man in the corridor of the federal
building was attempting to signal to
somebody in tho witness room. He
was seen to wave n handkerchief up
and down three times aAd three times

Washington, April 10.-President
be made known emphatically that he
regards the present political discus
sions as to his candidacy in 1924
as most premature and Furthermore
that he will forcgo his contemplated
western trip rather than make it as
1 political leader.
Upon the diminution of political
talk depends whether the President
will make the trip he is planning to
the Pacific coast and Alaska during
the summer. He was said to be
making all plans for the trip, start
ing about June 20 and reaching
4 Alaska about July 10, but he also
was said TO prefer remaining in
Washington. in communion with
Laddy Boy to a trip which would
put him before the people as a can
didate for reelection"
The discussion of the proposed trip
brought out that The chief executive,
feeling that his visit to Panama prior
to his Inauguration had aided him
greatly in dealing with matters re-
lating to the Canal Zone. was ex-
tremely anxious to get first hand in
formation as to conditions in
4 Alaska.
To make this information available
to those directly concerned with the
administration of Alaskan affairs
the President. it was said. proposed
10 take several members OF his
cabinet with him. The White House
p0kesman did not say what cabinet
MEMBERS would accompany the exc
kGltive, but Secretary Work. of the
Interior Department recently made
the statement that he and Secretary
Wallace of the Agriculture Depart
ment probably would visit Alaska
during the summer and it was Off
cially minated today that Secre-
tary Hoover. OF the Department of
Commerce would he a member OF
the presidential party.
With respect to the portion of the
trip from Washington to the Pacific
coast. the White House spokesman
said it was only natural that the
President should yield to Invita- tons
TO speak
The President was said to be de-
termined to make his addresses of a
non-partisan nature and although
the subjects have not been decided
upon. it was asserted to he safe to
assume that they would include
some Of the more important national
problems such as the railroad and
transportation questions.
