ADMINISTRATION
IRRITATED OVER
CHINESE REPORTS
White House Denies Mac
Murray Will Resign Be
cause of Differences

WASHINGTON, May 8 (P.-Intima-
tions of official irritation over press
reports from foreign sources purport-
ing to state the attitude of the Wash
ington government on questions in
China were given at the White House
today in connection with a flat denial
of such a report that Minister MacMur-
ray at Peking had resigned because of
differences with the state department
over American policy in China,
President Coolidge, it was said,
knows of no foundation for the report
that MacMurray has or intends to re-
sign. The presidents attention has
been called to a number of reports of
foreign origin of the same character
and he looks with considerable sus-
picion as to the motives which underlie
their circulation.
In the present chaotic condition
within the ranks of the nationalist
party in China, the president does not
see that any advantage could be de-
rived by sending another note regard
ing the Marking outrages. 1t was said
flatly at the White House that he did
not believe that any of the other
powers, Great Britain, Japan, France
and Italy, which joined with the
United States in sending to the Can
tonese authorities identic demands
growing, out of the Nanking incident,
have agreed upon a note to follow up
those demands and press for COM
pliance.

Quota for City Doubled as
Result of Need for
More Funds

Notification of the doubling of the
quota for Douglas in the Red Cross
drive for funds to aid people in the
path of the floods in the Mississippi
valley was received in telegram by
D. C. O'NeH, chairman for the local
Red Cross, yesterday from William
Carl Hunt officer of the national
Red Cross in San Francisco.
The original quota set for the ma
tion was $5,OOo,ooo, but when It was
seen that this amount would be in
adequate to meet the needs of the
homeless flood sufferers, call for
an additional like amount was sent
out from Washington.
Douglas reached her first quota of
$500 in the first four days of last
week. Following the receipt of the
second assigned quota yesterday local
officials of the organization were
doubling their efforts to again put
Douglas over the top.
A check yesterday afternoon show
ed that total of $56S.50 has been
raised since the first call was made
here. Those who have donated to the
fund.- in addition to those previously

EXTRASESSION.
CONGRESS
NOT EXPECTED
Army Engineers Ordered to
Make Survey of Flood
Prevention.
TOWNS FLOODED
Thousands Evacuated to
High Ground With But
One Life Lost.

WASHINGTON, May g. lP-Having
thrown all government agencies into
the work of relieving flood sufferers
+ in the Mississippi valley, president
Coolidge turned his attention today
TO the possibility of legislation to
prevent future disasters such as that
which has descended upon such a
large area in the south and middle
west.
AS the first step, he ordered Secre-
tary Davis of the war department to
accompany Secretary Hoover when
Hoover returned to the south tomor7
row and to put the army engineers
to work, in cooperation with the
Mississippi river commission, in max
ing a survey. The report which is
drawn up, Coolidge believes, will be
of great value to congress when
flood prevention measures are taken
up
1t was reiterated today at the
White House that President Coolidge
does not believe an extra session Of
congress will be necessary o meet
the flood emergency. He also feels
that personal trip to the flood area
would not help conditions.
NEW ORLEANS, May 3. Q9-As the
determined fight to protect the vast
areas in central and southern Louisi-
ana went steadily forward today,
flood waters from the raging Mis-
sissippi and it's tributaries claimed
new towns and fields in northeastern
Louisiana.
Serious problems of rescue and care
of refugees were presented, but the
enormous machine hastily built up by
civilian Dictator Parker was func-e
tioning smoothly and thousands had
been evacuated to high ground with
the report of single loss of life.
Everywhere along the line except
at Milliken's Bend, across the Mis-
sissippi from Vicksburg, the river
lines were held AT that point, the
Mississippi, racing madly under the
added pressure of flood water from
the delta region flowing back
through the Yazoo river, flowed over
the embankment for a distance of
100 feet threatening to loosen a tor
rent of water into Tensas parish al
ready partially inundated.
Reports to former Governor Parker
were that if this flow Were not
checked it probably would carry from
six to ten feet of water into Tal-
lulah parish seat of Madison, which
has population of Approximately
1900 people The town itself is about
ten miles from the river
1t was estimated by officials that
if this threatened break materialized
it would result in the early inunda-
tion of approximately 1000 additional
square miles of territory in Madison,
Tensas, East Carroll, West Carroll,
Morehouse, Franklin, Richland, Cata-
houla Concordia, LaSalle and Parides
parishes, much Of which already Is
under flood or backwater.
Harrisonburg, parish seat Of Cata-
houla, to the west, already is under
many feet OF water, according to

'LOvable Little Cuss' Turns
On p aram our On
Witness Stand


NEW YORK, May 3. up = Henry
Judd Gray, the little East Orange,
IN. j., corset salesman, charged with
numbering Albert Snyder, magazine
art editor, took the stand in his own
defense today in the SnyderGray
murder trial
Erect, voice well pitched his die
tion unusually good, the 'lovable
little cuss,' as Mrs. Ruth Brown Sny-
Ger, his paramour and co-defenda mt,
called him in her 1etetrs, soon was
launched into a story of events lead
ing up to the murder of Albert Sny-
der
He fixed upon Mrs. Snyder the con-
ception of plot to kill her husband
for his insurance, which, in case
of death by accident, would net to
her, as beneficiary, almost 100000
He began a picture of Mrs. Snyder
that revealed her a woman predatory
in her love, pursuing him by letters
and by telephone calls, and as his
companion at numerous night club
parties and at hotels. He pictured
her subtle mentor in the intrigues
that preceded the killing, and told of
her introducing insurance and murder
into their conversations
Mrs. Snyder surrendered the witness
chair to her daughter after occupying
it for more than IL hours. OF that
number, 8h hours were devoted to a
severe cross examination. She fixed
upon Gray both the plot to kill her
husband and the actual murder.
The affair between Mrs. Snyder
and Gray began, Gray testified, as a
simple Filtration in restaurant.
One day in September, 1925, only a
few weeks after their first meeting,
she asked him how much insurance
he carried. She then told him that
her husband carried only a $1,000
policy The topics of murder and in
surance frequently arose in their con-
versations, he testified. Then in
February, 1926, after many meetings.,
letters, telephone calls, shopping trips
to buy mutual Christmas presents and
parties in conspicuous night clubs,
she spoke outright of killing Albert
Snyder. Gray was recovering, in a
hotel room, from Excessive drinking"
of the night before.
She recounted many quarrels she
had with her husband. He advised
her to try to iron them out" Then
she told him, in words that he could
not doubt, "she was going to get rid
of her husband"
He rejected the idea. But it was
