REPUBLICANS SEEK

Alarming Leaders.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

Ways and means of eliminating the
cans, between progressive Republicans
and the old guard which recently has
threatened to become wide, are icing
discussed today by Republican men,
bers of the Senate.
Particularly exercised over the situa-
tion growing out Of The bitter fight on
the tariff bill are those Republican
Senators who hail from Midwest and
Western States who are entirely regu-

at the Capitol today also is that Presi-

Moses Adds to Troubles.
The bitter fight in the Senate over
the tariff bill, capped by the characteri-
zation of the coalition" Senators as
Sons of wild jackasses" by Senator
Moses of New Hampshire, is response
BILE for the situation.
AS far as can be learned today, there
is no movement on foot among the Re-
publican Senators actually to oust Sen
ator Moses from the craftsmanship OF
the Republican senatorial campaign
committee. But there is much sore
ness, it was admitted by regular Re-
publican Senators, over the manner in
which Republican campaign committee
affairs have been going. Senator Moses
is chairman of the campaign committee

Watson of Indiana, Republican leader

CALLED
IN SCR|VENER QUIZ
Kelly Demands That His AC-
cuser Be Questioned by
Grand Jury.

John L. Gibson, former policeman,
was summoned before the grand jury
today to tell what he knew about the
handling Of the investigation into the
death Of Detective Arthur Scrivener
three years ago.
The summon was prompted by remarks
made by Gibson at meeting of the
Washington Open Forum yesterday, at
which Policeman Robert j. Allen was
the principal speaker. Gibson accused
Lieut.. Edward j. Kelly, who led the in
vestigation into Scrivener'S death, OF
knowing who murdered Scrivener. The
coroner's jury which inquired into
Scrivener's death found that he had
been murdered, but the Police Depart
ment later was inclined to the theory
that Scrivener committed suicide.
Kelly Seeks Actions
When Lieut.. Kelly heard of Gibson's
reported utterance he went to Mr.. Rover
to ask that Gibson be summoned to tell
all he knew about the case to the grand
jury. Kelly said that If anybody knew
or believed that he (Kelly) had any
knowledge about the murder which he
port it to the grand jury.
MY conscience is clear" Kelly said.
"and Gibson or anybody else who be-
neves that did wrong is duty bound
TO tell anything he knows to the proper
authorities"
1t was understood however, that Mr..
Rover's decision to summon Gibson had
been reached independently.
Resigned From Service.
Gibson served on the police force
from 1904 to 1908, when he resigned
He told Star reporter after the meet
ing that at the time of Scrivener's
death he was retained to investigate
1t by an organization, the name of
which he would not reveal. He said
that he took his information to Mai,
Henry G. Pratt, now superintendent
OF police, but at that time chief of
detectives, and that Pratt Laughed him
out of the Detective Bureau
Pratt said today that he recalled Glib
sons visit, which occurred several
months after Scrivener's death.
Gibson" said Pratt, had a theory,
l have forgotten what it was. As /
recall 1t, he had no information to
offer, merely stating his theory. 1t
was OF no value to us in the investi-
CATION"
Lieut.. Kelly told newspaper men his
conscience is clear" He added, 1T fear
no one. If any one has any information
or any evidence which he thinks shows
that shielded anybody or attempted to
cover up anything in my investigation
OF the Scrivener case, am anxious for
him to place such facts before the
grand jury Immediately. I am certain
l can prove that my work in the
board"
1t was announced later that Lieut..
Kelly. accompanied by Mai. Pratt,
would visit Mr. Rover later in the dav
to demand a thorough investigation of
Gibson's charges.

NATIONAL AIR TOUR
RECORDS CHANGED
Elapsed Time Standings AL

Suffered by Leaders.

GREENVILLE, N. c., October IL
Misfortune which beset leading conten-
ders in the national air tour on the
Richmond Greenville lap resulted in
several changes in elapsed time stand
ings. j. v. CrosSwen and K. Voelter,
who apparently had tight hold on
fifth place as the planes took of yester-
day morning on the Richmond
ston-Salem, N. c., leg Of the flight to
Greenville, hardly were OF the ground
before motor trouble forced them to
turn back. Repairs made, they set out
again, but were halted by darkness at
Greensboro, N. c. They were counted
seventh IN elapsed time today. They
are flying Curtiss Condor transport.
Earl Rowland was stricken with
appendicitis at Richmond and although
Joe Heehan took over the task of
plotting Rowland's plane, 1t slipped to
tenth place in the standing.
May HaiSllp, one of three woman
pilots, also experienced motor trouble
and was several hours behind the other
planes in arriving at Greenville,
The one, two, three places in elapsed
time were held by John Livingston, Art
Davis and M. e. Zeller, respectively.
AL Krapish cracked UP his landing
gear in bringing down his Moth biplane
here. It was doubtful If repairs could
be made in time to permit him to leave
with the other planes.
Forty planes, including competitors
and conveys, are in the tour.
