 These conversations took place three days before Crater vanished on Aug. 6, 1880, Mrs. Crater said.
 Assistant Chief Police Inspector John A. Lyons was engaged today in questioning detectives who had parts in the case because of Mrs. Crater's assertion that the original injury was inefficient. Mrs. Crater said that her home had been searched by de- tectives she found $7,00o in cash, a will, insurance policies and @ note from her husband indicating to her that he planned to or feared he would disappear.
 Dodge said he would compare statements made in the past few days by Mrs. Crater with the flnd- ings of the grand jury at the time the jurist disappeared. The district attorney indicated he did not believe politics had anything to do with the case and that he had every reason to assume his predecessors in office had investigated thoroughly.

established. Although not invited to any conference on the makeup ol the ticket members of the g.o.p. party will be invited to contribute % the campaign.
 From all indications the inde- pendent democrats will nominate Senator George T. Culhane for mayor. The republican delegates in the adjoining hall will also nomi- nate Senator George T. Culhane. Any republican delegate objecting to the independent democrats selec- tion will lose his credentials and be tossed out of the halll
 Remainder of Ticket
 There is a little difference of opinion at present on the makeup of the remaining of the ticket. It is generally understood, however, that if a democrat heads the re- publican ticket the g. O. p. steer ing committee" will insist on nam- ing all candidates for the board ot aldermen. It is believed possible that in the near future the present leaders of the republican party may wish to cause few changes for the benefit of the survivors of the or ganization. Under such circum- stances 1t will be best, they figure, not to trust democrats, independent dependent or otherwise
 There will be no republican op- position to the independents choice of mayor. There may be a mild protest if the independents decide to name the entire slate. If there is, Chairman Upson is expected to offer an apology to the independ- ents for such unexpected conduct on the part of the hand-picked delegates.
 Democrat Endorsement
 A few former republican candi- dates, who have worked for the success of the party in city, state and national elections, are seeking places on the republican ticket. They will be accommodated, if they obtain the endorsement of the 1nde- pendent Democrats. There must be harmony Monday night at any price with two conventions in the same building, two supposed parties in solemn conference with single ambition-to defeat the city admin istration!
 Republican Primaries
 The republican primaries were held last evening. There were no contests. The presentation Monday evening of one ticket in each of the five wards assured the steering con- mittee that there would be protest over tehir plans to cooperate with the independent democrats.

 Fatigue was the relentless enemy Traxler and Tindol could not beat although they were able to outWii scores of police. The fugitives were without rest for 4s hours. Yesterday, about noon, they were so tired they ordered Trimmer, who was driving them, to stop on @ shady sideroad.

 "The entire effort of the police was directed not toward an irn- partial investigation of the event but to an attempt to build up e case against the marchers.
 Tt is apparent from the foregoing that the police investigation was entirely inadequate to the occasion; {; that 1t started with an assumption of guilt on the part of the march, CTS and failed to make any impartial examination of the conduct of tile police"
 The report criticized conduct of police after the clash occurred and charged failure of police to render first aid to wounded
 Excessive Force

 "T'he uncontradicted photographic and oral evidence, corrohorated by admissions of the police themselves, establish that their treatment of the injured was characterized by the most callous indifference to human life and suffering.

 Friends Of Garner
 Friends of the vice president be- lieve that phases of the admins tration labor policy and continued big scale expenditures in the face of an unbalanced budget are the issues upon which Garner and the president are fartherest apart. That caused speculation today whether congressional rebellion against ju- dietary reorganization would be ex- tended to a general movement un- der conservative democratic leader ship to curb the second New Deal.
 One of the issues upon which the president and vice president failed early in the session to agree is un- derstood to have been sitdown strikes. Garner wanted MT. Roose- welt to -yepudiate that strike tech- nique when the committee for in- dustrial organization was attempt ing to unionize General Motors Cor poration plants.
 President Comedies
 Insiders said today that MT. Roosevelt finally had conceded that the court bill could not be enacted in the form now proposed and that the White House might be willing to narrow the remaining 1887 leg islative program of major bills to wage -and-hours and plug for tax loopholes, although he would pre- fer a vote this year on the entire White House program.
 Adjournment soon was predict ed as Gamers influence began to be felt on the legislative situation. But there also was a possibility that Congress might recess now until October.
 Garner left Washington last month on an unscheduled vacation to Texas. MT. Roosevelt at that time was encountering increasingly serious opposition to his judiciary bill.
 Why Garner Went Home
 Various interpretations were placed upon Gamers sudden dis including specula ton whether he and MT. Roosevelt had reached permanent fnisunder- standing. The vice presidents friends, however, soon explained that major cause of his depar- ture was anxiety over Mrs. Gamers health. But there was no denial of differences of opinion between the two men.
 When he left Washington, Gar her left @ promise to return if his vote were needed to break a Senate tie in behalf of MT. Roosevelt's ju- dietary bill, even though he did not like the legislation.
 Two developments brought Gar ner hurrying back to the capital to take command of the legislative army which was scattering and confused.
 The first was speech by Chair man Hatton W. Summers of the House Judiciary committee. Sum- ners warned MT. Roosevelt that the court bill would split the party in the House and he promised to kill 1t if he could.
 Then Senate Majority Leader Joseph T. Robinson died, and Gar ner came back to Washington with the senators who attended the Lit- tie Rock, Ark, funeral. Less than 36 hours after his arrival the court bill was dead and its opponents were writing Q substitute fneaaiire.

Taxes like death are inevitable But these day they the subject of much more conversation a payroll leyies started under the Social Securit! program and additional nick or two is made in th faithful old taxpayers pockebook for this and that
 Social Security. however, seems to get most o1 the blame as many are still unconyinced that the new efforts toward human security anything moro than form of insurance which ultimately should bring about more evenly balanced social order Those who blame the Federal government for all ta3 sins overlook so-caed nuisance taxes which have g habit of putting in an appearance everywhere wher( than dozen people reside.
 We don't have to go outside of Juneau to look for these annoying little nuisance taxes. We havt right here in the capital of Alaska two three ulus which could almost qualify for a believe it or no column
 For example under the existing radio ordinane every owner of radio receiving set is required tt register with the City Clerk and here's the catch "the annual fee of such registration shall be ont dollar per year, beginning the first day of Janu ary and ending December 31 of each year" True very few radio set pay very much attentio to it. But it's the law.
 Then there is the familiar dog-leash ordinance Under this remarkable piece of city statute ever, dog owner shall pay to the City Clerk the sum 0 one dollar for the purpose of registering said do or dogs for license and Identification And the he must keep the animal chained up in his own yart

As To A Lower Price For Gold
(New York Times

(NeW York IlmeS)
 Recent report world economic conditions, Sub- nitted to the Bank for International Settlements al Sasle is the main hopeful but it lays the greater mphasis those uncertainties which still exist Particular interest attaches to remarks problem ately uppemost in the worlds narketsthe confusing phenomena of international gold movements. That old production in 1886 the greatest by far oi my years in history was known beforehand The re- points out the anomaly that most of the gold III notion has gone to two countries England and the United States, whose balance of international pay nents on other accounts heavily adverse, and whose sterilization" of the incoming gold causes ulrdensome expenditure. But when it comes to pro- posing remedies the World Banks report is altogether ,esant. Control of gold production return to cir ulation of gold coin, virtually dismissed as lm- racticable solutions The only definite suggestion is he lowering of the existing price for gold by way of estraining "overabundant production" Even to this proposal the report continues. there are formidable obstacles.
 The anomalies shown by the committee to exist in he present situation were based on international rade returns for 1886; have our own Com nerce Departments report on America foreign trade
 the first quarter of la37 During those three months ve imported Sll3959000 more merchandise than we xported Oul import ot silver was S2O,946o0o, gold less than $3e5 983 O00 thus creating visible 3aance against us amounting to s530888000. It has been customary to assume that the total balance,
 sibe and invisible struck through remittance ot apital from abroad. The Treasury lately estimated
 hat the full year 1886 net gold import of $1 030O0O offset by shipment to the United States of Sll4l- % 600 short term and ong-term capital There may rave been similar compensatory movement in 1857 investment of foreign capital in our securities last month, must have been considerably reduced; yet he preliminary estimate on April gold imports IS il56 100000.
 The suggestion by the World Bank committee, the price of gold be lowered is apparently applied all the leading nations. There can be no doubt hat action by the United States, which in 1884 arb- rariy marked up the American price for gold con- iderably than half would be primary con- ;deraton; but the committees cautious and tenta- i've proposal would to contemplate international ction by international agreement. The obstacles which it cites this the possible disturbance such equilibrium of the currences as has already 9een attained and the danger involved of future manipulation These considerations already exist, however, at least potentially and 1t is hard to ind- cate any rational solution, except by international conference and agreement The need for solution is llready great; the difficulties created by the existing situation increasing. not decreasing, and all of the countries concerned learned much since the London Economic Conference of 1883.
