FOLEY DECLINES TO
 BE TAMMANY KING
III Health Forces Him to Recon:
 sider Acceptance

New York. May Is. - Tammany hall, which spent the day rejoicing in the fact that Surrogate James A. Foley had accepted the leadership of the organization, was thrown into consternation last night when the sur rogate positively declined to accept the post left vacant by the death of his ep-father-in-law, Charles F. Murphy. He said he was not physi- cally fit 10 assume the responsibii- ties.
 The surrogate's decision came as a stunning surprise to the Tiger. It was known. of course. that he did not want the position, but it was general ly understood last night that he had yielded to the insstcnt pleadings of Governor Smith. Norman F.. Mack, democratic national committeeman from New York and other close friends.
 Today, however, it developed that he had not actually accepted the post last night. although announcement that he had was made by Tammany leaders.
 A hurry call was sent out for an other meeting of the executive con- mit'oe of Tammany, to be held be- hind closed doors at. the Wigwsm. William Allen. chairman Of the com mittee, said the election of another leader would be held in a few days.

HAROLD LLOYD AT PALACE

Variety is the spice of life, and it ia also the secret of success in mak- ms good motion pictures. Many s;als fall into q rut because they in- slsl upon making the same line of pictures and using the same kinds of chdracterizations. They never change because they feel the public is used U seeing them in a certain type ol p,Cture.
 such is not the case, however. with Harold Lloyd, whose latest feature l'atf1e-comedy, Girl Shy" will be seen at the Palace for five days start ing Saturday. Harold has fortunate y discovered that mixing them up bit" is the secret of success. He has never made two comedies even remotely alike, considering his big hits. "Dr. Jack" Safety Last" Why Worry" and now Girl Shy" He has jumped from small town situa- tions 10 south American revolution from portraying a doctor 10 a rib bon clerk. Now in his latest, he has again striy-an for something different from anything he has ever made. He is seen in Girl Shy" in an entirely novel characterization as bashful small town boy who is an apprentice 10 his uncle, a tailor.
 There. will be four shows Saturday To accommodate the crowds who will want 10 sec Girl Shy" and Harold Lloyd balloons will he given free to the first 900 children al the Saturday matinee.

Prohibition Officer D. w. Flanagan and Special. Agent Baggen returned on theStarr yesterday from long trip through Interior Alaska, the journey by land and water extending over A,000 miles Mir. Flanagan stated that while he lhad 30 time to make thorough in- vesci gation of conditions, he visited all Indian villages ens poute and found some, evidence of liquor violations at times daring:l the past winter, but found only two villages, where the liqnor laws were violated to any con- siderable extent. Where. such. viola tions were found, invariably they were from traders giving liquor to natives forifurs. The worst conditions. accord ing to Flanagan, were found ln the vii cinisy of Koyukuk, the traders there apparently being very active in fur nishng liquor to natives.
 At-Anvik the natives were prosper ous and also at Holy Cross.-, Poor con- ditions existed at Russian Mission, owing to lOcak poverty.
