year was served on May %. The au-

days longer, dollar a day for the

A delegation to Governor Leslie
got a flat refusal from that official
to their demand for Luesse's release.
But the governor offered to let him

gone Democratic only once, in 1912,
the year Of the great Progressive split,
and Ohio only twice, in 1912 and in
1916. Pennsylvania has supported the
Republican candidates in all the elec-
tions except that of 1912, when it cast
its electoral vote for Roosevelt, the
Progressive. These three States be-
tween them now have LOT electoral
votes. To win without them Gov.
Roosevelt II nominated must sweep all
the rest Of the country. In case OF
such q landslide at least New York and
Ohio would probably swing for him and
possibly even Pennsylvania. 1t Is
difncult to conceive Democratic
victory that does not include at least
two Of the three States which Chair
man Farley regards as unnecessary.
The elimination Of Tammany from
the reckoning of the Roosevelt strength
and support is doubtless based on the
presumption that that organization Is
liability rather than an asset in the
country at large. perhaps even in the
upstate counties III New York itself.
As a matter OF fact, there is no oc-
casion for Chairman Farley or Gov.
Roosevelt now to avoid a conflict with
Tammany. The conflict is on Wig
orously and it may be questioned
whether even a decision in favor OF
Mayor Walker in his trial before the
Governor would lessen the hostility Of
the tiger toward him.

ploye likes to attend a ball game. At

against annual leave, as nothing less
than a whole day can be charged

works till noon, becomes ill and goes

. Roosevelt and Tammany.

A statement issued yesterday by
James A. Farley, Democratic State
chairman of New York and manager OF
Gov. Roosevelts campaign for nomina-
ton, may possibly be regarded As an
indication that the Governor Is likely
to act affirmatively on the charges
against Mayor Walker which are now
before him. Mr.. Farley predicts that
the Governor will be nominated on the
iirst ballot at Chicago, and further
more declares that he will not need
New Yorks electoral vote to win in
November. He points to Roosevelt's
175,O0O upstate plurality in 1880 and
to the fact that he Is the only Demo-
cratic Governor ever elected without
the need Of any majority at all In New
York City. This is a plain warning
that the Roosevelt forces are prepared
TO 90 ahead without Tammany sup
port for both nomination and election.
that Gov. Roosevelt as the nominee OF
his party will win not less than 345
OF the 53l electoral votes, which would
give him q safe ma jority without the
81 electoral votes of New York. This
total, he says. does not include Illinois
and Ohio. Heretofore it has been gen.
orally accepted that q presidential
candidate to win must carry at least
two Of the three States which Mr..
Farley eliminates from the presidential
count. In the last nine elections, In

preceding request for permission for
the flight addressed to the British
government. These preliminaries are
not likely to be delayed.
Everest, which has thus far defied all
attempts to scale its more than $4,000
feet, Is an alluring goal for flyers as 1t
has been for climbers It is a hazard
Gus objective for even the most accom-
plished and experienced aviators. Its
height alone IS such as to call for the
greatest skill and endurance, as 1t
reaches into the zone of intense cold
and light atmosphere. Its greatest
menace. however, Is the violent wind
that almost constantly sweeps over its
crest. In the land assaults upon its
summit the gales have been the chief
obstacle to success. Men have been
literally blown over the preciplces by
the furious onset Of the air.
The bare outline Of the plan of Will
liams and Mckinley that has been
given indicates that the base OF the
expedition will be Gaya, In the north
central part of Bengal, one hundred
and fifty miles by air line from Everest
and about the same distance from Dar-
jeeling. which has heretofore been the
starting point Of all Everest ventures
Darjeeling. lying in the extreme north
ern part Of Bengal. on the Nepal border,
is fifty miles from Everest. Probably,
however. the aviators regard Gaya as
better air base, regardless of the greater
distance to the goal. The course Of the
flight from Gaya would carry the
aviators across the Ganges Valley and
the great plain on the north of the
river, with the possibility OF landing
short Of the Himalayas If anything
should go wrong with the plane. The
real peril lies in the latter part OF the
outward fight. with stretch Of the
most broken country in the world un-
relieved by any large level spaces.
If this enterprise is prosecuted to the
point of actual flight it will be watched
by all the world as one Of the most
daring ever attempted over land alone
There is possibility that If 1t succeeds
the photographs taken by the aviators
will materially aid in the eventual con-
quest of Everest by direct attack afoot.

Stock Market Promotive
of Dangerous Speculation

To the Editor Of The Star:
In your issue of May 20 you quote the
president Of the New York Stock Ex-
change as having said: THE Exchange
is nothing but q market place where
purchasers and sellers meet and through
the law Of supply and demand deter
mime market prices OF securities Also
ANY restrictions which hamper the
buyer or seller Of securities create an
artificial market which ultimately Is
bound to collapse" Then he goes on to
tell us that the farmer Is q gambler. for
the weather may injure his crop. which
is sheer nonsense. and has not any
thing to do with short" selling OF other
peoples securities much to their finan-
cial detriment. But whitney uses the
old and hackneyed expression law OF
supply and demand" What supply"
does he mean, when the seller has no
stock to deliver without borrowing It?
And what demand is he dreaming about
when we know that a declining mar
ket produced by short" selling 1mme-
diately kills the demand, as has been
the case for long time past? Many
customers will cancel their purchasing
orders when they see the market de-
Ginning
Whitney quotes the Supreme Court
as deciding tnat short" selling is legal,
but that was merely an intimation that
there was not q law against 1t, and to
protect purchases it would be justined,
such as is the custom OF millers In the
grain market.
Whitney also claims that 1t does not
profit brokers for their clients to lose
money. If this is 50 why did not the
brokers use their undoubted influence
to prevent their ignorant customers buy
ing stocks at highly inflated prices
ignorant in q stock-market sense? But
no, the 1857 members OF the Exchange
kept on buying for the unfortunate
public. thus relieving the pools of the
stocks they were carrying. Many brok-
ers were members OF pools, as has been
proven by the investigation now being
conducted in Washington.
This writer has been a foreign finan-
cial adviser for many years, and under
stands the American stock market. and
Whitney cannot make him believe that
he Is at the head OF q strictly honest
institution.
