Gray, man well known about town, arrested last week by Florida sheriff, who wanted him in that state to serve a six-year sem tence for swindling, apparently did not confine his activities in Gulfport solely to dances, card parties and receptions, according to A. S. Hargrove, postal inspector, who announced today that he had discovered a full fledged wire tap pers" headquarters to which ingress was obtained by keys taken from Gris- wold.
 It is said that Griswold occupied four rooms in an office building and that it was equipped with telegraph instruments and other apparatus for the operation of a bucket shop" and turf exchange Other keys taken from Griswold, the inspector stated, opened a strong box filled with stage money"
 Griswold was convicted and sen fenced at Fort Pierce, St. Lucie county, Florida, several years ago and disap- peared while at liberty under bond, pending an appeal. He was arrested here two years ago for the New Orleans police, who wanted him for an alleged swindle in that city, but was released because of fla win the procedure.

END OF SENATOR GREENE, BULLET
 VICTIM, IS NEAR
Most Critical Symptoms Develop And Hope
 Is Slight

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-Slight hope vas held cut tonight for the re- tovefy of Senator Frank L.. Greene of Vermont. After showing slight i'm provement early today, attending sur geons who have performed two opera tions on the senator since he was struck down by a bullet in a battle between revenue agents and suspected bootleg gers Friday night, said his condition had taken serious turn today.
 Senator Dale, his colleague in the Senate from Vermont, said in a state ment late today. Most critical symp- toms are developing in Senator Greene's condition and the outcome is without much hope"
 Mrs. Lester B. Greene, aged mother of the senator, was expected to arrive late tonight from Florida, from where she had been summoned.
 Capt. Richard l.. Greene, a son of the senator, is travelling across the continent to the sick bed of his father.
 Investigation Goes Forward
 While medical skill sought to stave off death, investigation into various phases of the shooting of the senator went forward today. Peyton Gordon continued his investigation and sum- moned additional witnesses of the shooting for examination. Mir. Gordon also had before him the report of h. spector c. l.. Grant, chief of detectives, covering the result of police efforts to fix responsibility for the shooting.
 Special intelligence agents of the bureau of internal revenue also are at work on the case.
 At meeting of the House District committee today, Representative Gib- son, republican, Vermont. brought up the question of the wounding of Sena- tor Greene and phases bearing on the use of firearms in the District were dis cussed. Assistant corporation counsel of the District explained existing laws and regulations and at the suggestion Of Mir. Gibson action was deferred until the next meeting of the committee.
 A pending resolution presented by the Vermont representative calls for ap- pointment of subcommittee to obtain from District of Columbia and prohibi- tion unit officials the identity of agents operating in the vicinity of the shoot ing and data as to the qualification of prohibition agents and their instruc.' tlons on the use of firearms.

SEEK MORE DATbl 2 . UPON PETITIol.A :
 FOR .0DOSA DAM
Service Commission Re.
 quests Showing Of De- 1nand For More Power

Further consideration of the petition to construct power dam on the Coosa river, near Lock 2, was decided on at the hearing before the Alabama Public Service commission, sitting in Birming- ham, Wednesday.
 Tuesday the hearing opened with the submission of petition by the Peoples Hydroelectric Power Development com pany to construct the proposed power dam. J. Fritz Thompson appeared for the Alabama Power company in oppo- sition to the petition.
 " Against Law s1 Mr. Thompson maintained in his argument that the petition was an ap- plication for q conditional certificate of convenience and necessity; and the law does not authorize a conditional certifi- cate; that the, petition had not shown that such a development was a neces- sity, and, third, that neither the peti- tion nor proof showed financial ability on the part of the petitioners to do eitEers the preliminary work or finance the completion of the project.
 Chairman A. G. Patterson ruled that 1t was not necessary to show financial ability. but that it. was necessary to show the public necessity or demand for more electric power.
 The Petition .;s a s VI N, H. Cobb of Ealladeea, president Of the People$ compAnx presented the pc tition Int the hearing Tuesday, seek king perh6ik3ion from the conmission to tn. dertakt the construction of the dam. Both contestants will be allowed to present additional data at later hear ing.
 Following the hearing, President Pat ters6n left for Atlanta to attend meet ing of presidents of various state com missions on a revision of prevailing rates in the southern states. which hearing starts Thursday. J. B. East man Of the interstate commerce com mission called the conference. The states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Virginia, as we'll as other states, will be represented. Al Mobile Hearing
 F..iP. Morgan and Fitzhugh Lee, as- sociate commissioners, went to Mobile to attend some hearings in that city Thursday.
 Other matters handled by the com missioner Wednesday included the pe- tition to compel the Southern railway to reduce rates from Drifton to High Level which are being contested by the Birmingham traffic bureau. The South ern said the Ensley Southern, on which line the rates apply, is no longer QYned by the Southern, although 65 per cent of the stock is held by the latter line. In this case, as others, the commissioner postponed final action.

l LONDON, Feb 21, ,--TermS for tn settlement of the dispute between tn dock workmen and the employers wer agreed to at conference of the rep resentatives of both sides held at thu ministry of laboE after the adjournment of the employers meeting at midpght
 LONDON, Feb. 20-Premier Mac Donald announced in the House of Com mons Wednesday that negotiations fo1 supplying the country with essential foods were near completion, and re- iterated his declaration that the govern ment would not permit profiteers to reap harvests by boosting prices on the strength of the dock strike
 He declared if present negotiations for maintaining the food supply failed the government, itself, would take steps necessary to insure supplies. adding that he hoped the House of Commons would enact legislation permitting the government to deal with the situa tion if the strike continued.
 Meanwhile, the Central News carried a report that the employers had submit ted ''substitantial new offer to which Edwin Bevin, secretary of the dock workers union had agreed to reply.
 The docks were lifeless, Wednesday, and the situation was complicated by the fact that 15,000 stevedores, meet ing here, voted strike resolutions. Sev- eral thousand London busmen in the north east section of the city also struck during the day, because of local grievan: ces.
 Tickets of the dockers' union were at the docks and meat markets and forcibly prevented tn removal of chilled beef from cold storage warehouses.
 Strike Inquiry Opens
 The governments court of inquiry into the strike opened with Holman Gregory presiding. Sir Norman Hill, presented the employers viewpoint, while Bevin spoke for the lockers, ex- corciating the employers for callous treatment of the men. After review ing the case the inquiry was adjourned until Thursday.
 The Liner Olympic sailed from South hampton, Wednesday without cargo, after SO clerks had worked. all night, loading 5000 bags of mail.

Jokes About Slush Fund

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-Harry F. Sinclair arrived on the liner President Harding today. smilingly willing to dis cuss the weather, international politics and horse races. the gasoline business in Europe, the kingship of Albahia-every- thing but oil and the Teapot Dome.
 As his ship. already delayed by a blizzard and heavy weather, reached quarantine, waiting for the fog to settle, he met reporters and photog- graphers who swarmed aboard with handshakes all around and a prepared statement
 He, with Mrs. Sinclair. M Y. Bald- win, his confidential secretary, and Col. J. K. Simpson, vice president of Sin clair Consolidated. were dining when the. 'newspapermen sent him word they'd like to hear what he had to say about the Teapot Dome affair. |, "I1l see you in tn etea room," he re- plied Get that-in the tea room," and he winked. II have a very sensa- tional statement for you,' and he seemed to wink again.
 Statement Very Formal
 The statement was several hundred words long. It began:
 j. During the year 1924 American petroleum products will be in greater demand in Europe than ever before," and went on to tell what Mir. Sinclair had seen during his three weeks in France, Germany, Belgium and England to justify such a forecast The state ment concluded
 "On. account of my basence from home for several weeks, I'm not entirely familiar with what has happened in connection with the Senate investigation of the granting of naval reserve No. 8 ot the Mammoth Oi company. Until such time as l may be able to familiar ize myself with what occurred l do not wish to make any comment
 Before submitting to questioning Mir. Sinclair turned hifAself over to photog- raphers and posed for a score of movie cameras-always smiling or laughing At last cameraman said: Look serious for just one picture, Mir. Sinclair"
