LlADERS MAY DISOBEY
WM Street Interested ,
in Republican Situation
t NEW YORK, May 25.Possiblo
developments at tho Republican Na
tional Convention scheduled to bc
frih in Chicago, Juno 7, attract moro
attention in Wall street these days
than stock market affairs. Moat in
terest today was devoted to discuss
ing tho Roosevelt outlook, and in
connection With this discussion thcro
vrerc the customary offerings of va
rious Wagers.
It Was said on tho street that ono
bet of 1 to 2 had already been mado
that Roosevelt will be nominated,
while the quoted odds on the other
Republican possibilities were 1 to
3 on Hughes nnd 1 to 5 on Root.
The Street seemed to favor Root in
the discussion and there was a good
deal of talk about it being more do
sirablo that Hughes should remain
in the Supreme Court than assume
tho executive chair.
Efforts to block Governor Bmmbaughs
presidential aspirations and to provent him
receiving at the Republican National Con
vention a vote from the Pennsylvania dele
gation even large enough to be considered
"complimentary" were launched today by
Senator Penrose.
Following the canvass for votes for chair
man of the delegation, which Governor
Brumbaugh started yesterday, the senior
Senator started, a canvass on his own be
half for chairman, and then brought pres
sure to bear upon his followers who were
elected delegates, to provent them from giv
ing the Governor a complimentary vota
at Chicago.
The prediction was freely made In the
Penrose "camp today that tho Governor
Would not receive 30 of the 7G votes In
the Pennsylvania delegation If his name Is
presented at the convention as the "favorite-son"
candidate of this State.
All of the Penrose delegates are being
urged to Ignore the Governor's presidential
booirt, and to refuse to vote for him when
his name Is presented at the convention.
LEADERS MAY BALK.
Among the Penrose delegates who are
political leaders, however, there Is a dis
position to Ignore the Penrose "orders," nnd
t3 give the Governor a complimentary vote.
The county leaders who will attend the con
vention have called Senator Penrose's at
tention to the fact that the Governor still
has two and a half years to serve, and that
there will be another session of the Legis
lature next year. The Governor has the
power to appoint county officials to any
vacancies that may occur, and the county
leaders are also recognizing his power of
veto.
Although they are Inclined to balk at the
Penrose orders on this particular point,
however, the senior Senator Is counting
upon their votes being withheld when the
vote Is cast at the convention for Brum
baugh ss Pennsylvania's "favorite son." as
the canvaBS that was started yesterday has
drawn the factional lines tight for a bitter
fight within the delegation.
Governor Brumbaugh sent his telegrams
asking for support for chairman of the
delegation to 64 of the 76 delegates be
lieved to have been elected. As soon as
Senator Penrose heard of the Governor's
action, he sent similar messages to the
delegates. He simply asked for their votes
for htm for chairman, and did not give any
reason for his plea for support.
POLL OF DELEGATION.
The canvass that Is resulting Is develop
ing Into a, virtual poll of the delegation,
and an accurate estimate of the strength
pf the two factions Is expected when the
answers to the requests for support are re
ceived, by Penrose and Brumbaugh.
The post of chairman of the delegation
is the most Important one at the Chicago
convention, so far as the Pennsylvania del
egation Is concerned. It carries with It the
virtual leadership of the party In the State.
The chairman controls the State's repre
sentation on the convention committees, and
he speaks for the delegation on the floor
ef the convention.
Senator Penrose returned from Washing
ton last night and found 25 pledges for
support waiting for him at his office. An
swers to the Governor's message also
ipoured into Harrlsburg.
Some of the messages were received by
the delegates but not answered. Senator
McNlChol assumed a noncommittal atti
tude when he received the Governor's plea
for support. He threw It Into a waBte
paper basket and never answered It Con
gressman Vare answered It Immediately,
pledging his "hearty support"
Senator Sproul, of Chester, ally of Sena
tor Penrose, replied In the negative to the
Governor, as follows:
I acknowledge your wire of the 23d
Instant asking me to support you for
chairman of tha Pennsylvania delegation
to the Republican National Convention.
J regret to have to advise you that I
cannot do this, as my fight for delegate
was mads in opposition to your candidacy
after your campaign committee at Harrls
burg had sent out printed instructions
fpr voters In this county containing the
names of the other two candidates for
delegate and omitting mine. Under these
circumstances and considering the fact
that your opponents for delegate-at-large
beat you almost three to one In this
cunty, you would hardly expecjt me to, be
enthusiastically In favor of your leader
ship of the party.
Senator Buckman. of Bucks County,
friend of Joseph It. Grundy, a bitter polit
ical foo of the Governor, wired to Governor
Brumbaugh, refusing to support him, as
fellows:
Your message requesting me to support
you for chairman of the Pennsylvania
delegation, at the Republican National
Convention In Chicago just received. Fair
esa to you requires more than a polite
non-committal acknowledgment. I sur
mise, that you are not familiar with tha
primary vote of last Tuesday In Bucks
County, else you would hardly have asked
me to take a stand so diametrically op
posed to the clearly expressed wishes of
my constituents. My own vote for na
tional delegate on a atraightout antl
. .Brumbaush-Yara.Smlth.Brown contractor
combine platform was 3313 in my home
county as against 63S for Eaatburn, your
candidate. Your vote for national dele-jrate-at.larga
was 7t, aa compared with
?9J4 for Penrose. Although yours was
the only name printed on tha Republican
'kallot as a candidate for President of-the
United States, you received but 733 ex
pressions of preference for that high of.
jtce and were easily defeated by a Buck
County citizen who was not a candidate
and whose, name was written oftener
than yours was marked. largely because
of bis outspoken opposition to you. In
view of theja, ' facts, I think you will
agres with m that 1 ant Justified In re
fusing to grant your request or to re.
said you as m any way representative
tiis (wntlmenl of ,iuy county.
Discussing' his telegram of reply to tha
Svv-mor, Senator Sproul said he under
ajflii.1 that he was ona of tha delegates

"What fire?" asked a clerk.
"Either you have n fire here or we're

NEW YORK, May 25. Two brothers of
Dr. Arthur Warren Walte. on trial for his
life on a chnrge of killing his father-in-law,
John E. Peck, testified today that Walte
had been n thief nil his life. They told how
he had stolen from boarders In his mother's
homo when he wns a lad, from students
when he was In high school and In college,
and from his employers In South Africa.
Frank Walte wns the first brother to
testify. As he left the witness stand Mrs.
Clara Louise Peck Walte, wlfo of the man
on trial, hastily arose from her sent beside
the Jury box and seized the witness' hands.
Her lips moved but her volco wns so tow
that only Frank could hear what she said.
He smiled at her In understanding and
sympathy.
Clyde Walte followed his brother on the
stand. He recalled Arthur's Bchool days,
Bald ho wns quarrelsomo and troublesome;
that ho never seemed to be able to pass a
dog or a cat without pulling Its tall nnd
nt ono tlmo had drowned n kitten.
RELATIVES IN ASYLUMS.
Warren W. Walte, tho defendant's father,
followed his Bont on tho stnnd. Ho said
that his father In June, 1871, left home,
and had never been heard of nfterwnrd.
Ono of his mother's nieces, ho testified, died
In an asylum for the Insane In Michigan,
and one of Doctor Wnito's cousins Is now
In nn nsylum nnd another wns for a tlmo In
a psychopathic hospital at Ann Arbor,
Mich.
Tho elder Walte testified that a cousin
of his wns dent and dumb, nnd that his
slstor. Mrs. Lillian Wnlto Watson, wnB af
fected by tho death of her first-born child.
He said she had been morose nnd mentally
deficient ever since.
Justlco Slienrn ruled out nil tho testi
mony along this line.
When Arthur was born, the witness said,
ho weighed 12 pounds, nnd was more Irri
table than tho other children nnd gave them
a lot of trouble all the time.
CLYDE WAITE ON STAND.
Frnnk Wnlte is a thin-faced, graying-
haired man. His facial expression Indicated
he has endured moro nngulsh over tho case
than has his brother, the defendant.
Clyde Walte wns next called.
He testified that his brother Arthur wns
cruel to horse3 when a boy, nnd took de
light In drowning n kltton.
"Did he appenr to have any appreciation
of the difference between right nnd wrong,"
Clyde was asked.
"Ho did not. He commlttecd thefts while
nt high school and in college," Clyde con
tinued. Doctor Wnlte hung his head In shame as
this testimony was given. Clyde Halte Is
four years older than Arthur. He looks
quite like. him.
"Did you, Clyde, over BtenI money from
your employer In Grand Rapids?" Assistant
District Attorney Brothers demanded on
cross-examination.
"No."
"Didn't you receho a $10,000 check from
Arthur March 2 to help make good tho
shortage?"
"There was no shortage. No mon.ey was
sent to buy a farm."
The check here referred to was money
Doctor Wnlte got from Mrs. Katherlne
Peck. It has slnco been returned.
FATHER TESTIFIES.
Warren W. Walte, father of tho defend
ant, then faltered to the stand. His hair
is 'gray, his face bronzed as that of a man
who has lived outdoors. The father Is 69.
"Lllllo Jackson, a cousin of mine, daugh
ter of my mother's sister, died In an Insane
asylum," the elder Walte began. "Bert,"
Utile's brother, is now in nn nsylum nt
Ann Arbor because his mind Is unsound.
Another brother of Llllio's has been treated
for mental unsoundness,"
"Arthur ran away to Canada after high
school," the father continued, "and I had
to go after him. He lied to me frequently.
Once I had to return 3200 he had taken.
He was sullen when I would not allow him
to have his own way."
Still dapper, faultlessly attired, nnd his
long, wavy hair carefully brushed, Walte
took his place In the courtroom again to
day, sitting only a few paces In front of
his aged father and two .brothers, Frank
and Clyde. It was the first tlmo Clyde
Walte has appeared at the trial. Opening
for the defense, Duell said
"The people of New York allege Dr.
Walte committed the atrocious crlmo of
poisoning John E. Peck, March 12, and at
that time he was of sound mind. You have
Bworn not to be biased by the Introduction
of testimony as to mental unsoundness.

WASHlMGT'ON, Mav 25. When
President Wilson moves for pence in
the great European war he will not
net on behMf of any ono nation, or

anything that would forecast im
mediate action for peace he did not
disclose it. He said merely that
when peace comes it must be brought
about to the benefit of no one na
tion, but for the good of all.
Tho President, it is understood,
favors tho Hcnsley resolution, pro
viding for the calling into confcrenCo
of the nations of the world for the

Situation Now Believed
Well in Hand
MILITIA ON THE MOVE
WASHINGTON. May 25. Administra
tion men todny said General Funston had
sufficient forces to meet the situation on the

Funston's command Includes virtually
every regular Infantryman and cavalryman

artillery nnd 3354 Texas mllltla, Tho Ari
zona nnd New Mexico mllltla have not been

this defect soon will be remedied.
Army men said they were a bit uneasy
over tho northward movement of Carrnn
zlstas, although they believe, they can cope
with any situation that may nrise. Noth
ing thus far In State or War Deportment

BAKER ORDERS COURT-MARTIAL
OF TEXAS ARMY SLACKERS
WASHINGTON, May 25. Reversing his
yesterday's decision. Secretary of War
Baker today announced he would direct
the calling of a court-martial to try the
cases of 116 Texas militiamen, charged
with failing to present themselves for duty
on the border.
This reversal was due to the discovery
nf niv ii?nl nolnts which the Hav-Cham-
If you find him mentally unsound at the berlaln army bill would not oDviate, as was
time of the crime, to find him guilty would
make you parties to a judicial murder If I
may use that tenn.
"Of course. If you find he was of sound
mind, a verdict of guilty would be proper.
"From his father and two brothers you
shall hear the story of his life. I shall
show his life In as great detail as I can.
From the lips of the defendant you shall
hear his own story that you may judge
for yourself what manner of man he Is.
"The defense will give testimony as to all
facts in connection with the death of Peck,
so that the Jury will have every particle
of informatlonwe have.
"You Bhall also hear from physicians
their opinion of his mental soundness."
Frank Walte was called as the first witness,

the trial of Abraham Becker, 70 years old,
who is charged with the killing of William
Miller, 17 years old, near 2d and McKean
streets last January. George Warner, of

French Insist on Proof of Purchase
"WASHINGTON. May 25, Documentary
evidence of purchase before An11 C must
be produced before any goods barred under
the recent French import, embargo will b
admitted, according tq a .eabUgraB frost
the American CnU)-0ncrl at Paris,
held yesterday. The oath required of Texas
militiamen Is that they shall defend the
Constitution and obey the orders of the
Texas Governor. No mention is made of
fealty to the President's orders.
In these circumstances Judge Advocate
General Crowder believes the new military
bill does not render the mllltla law void,
and that the offense of failure to present
themselves for muster Is not wiped out,
For this reason Baker decided upon the
court-martial.
"OLD GUMDOOTS" FOUND DEAD
Aged Negro, Od Dock Street Char
acter, Discover'" Lifeless on Basket
of Scallions
"Old Gumboots," sitting on a basket of
scallions In front of the produce house of
W. S. Sheehan & Co., 118 Dock street, was
found dead at 5 o'clock this morning by
Policeman Barry, of the Delancey street
station. Summer and winter these 40 years
past this aged negro, whom merchant and
roustabout alike knew only as "Old Gum
boots," had never slept elsewhere than on
one of the boxes of vegetables which by
day he "toted" for the provision dealers,
who always found him a faithful servitor.
His name is supposed to have been James
Johnson, but Tom Clark, veteran negro
teamster of Dock street, whose career along
the produce wharves covers a period ex
ceeding 60 years knew him only by the
sobriquet applied because he had always
been "kicked around like a pair of old gum
boots." s
None knew his antecedents. "Old Man
Tosspot," an herb doctor, who occupies a
cellar at 1314 Lombard street. Is believed
to be a brother, but could not be found to
day by the police, having set out on a hunt
for rheumatism remedies in Jhe Jersey
woods. "Sister Sue" Richardson, another
Dock street character, couldn't aid In the
search for "Gumboots'" relatives, b.ut of-r
fered her purse, containing three nickels.
toward saving his body from the potter's
field.

The Big Patriotic Song Success
A SONG as stirring as a call to arms, bearing the message of
"preparedness" with which the country is ringing today. Every
red blooded-American will want this Columbia Record
especially with the coupled attraction of "Good Bye, Good Luck,
God Bless You," Ernest R. Ball's latest hit, sung by the brilliant
composer of "Mother Machree," himself.
Al Jolson's hit from the New York Winter Garden, "Where Did
Robinson Crusoe Go with Friday on Saturday Night" and George H.
O'Connor's comic song success, "Oh Joe, With Your Fiddle and Bow" are two
other star performances from twenty great new popular hits listed among the
New Records for June
There is unusual variety in this month's list ofvrecords, ranging from sparkling light opera

New Recordings by Great Concert Artists
Graveure sings with poetic feeling Tom Moore's song "She is Far From the Land"; Kathleen
Parlow plays Drigo's "Serenade" and Dvorak's "Indian Lament in G Minor" with insight
and shining artistry; Marie Sundelius delights her admirers with two more lovely ballads;
Henri Scott and Godowsky add four gems to their repertoire a veritable feast of art.
Then there are eight rhythmic, swinging dance records ("They Didn't Believe Me,"
from "The Girl from Utah," is one of the best); the first records by H. M. Grenadier Guards,
England's greatest band; accordion novelties; orchestral gems; comic, sacred and trio records
(two of them by the Trio de Lutece) altogether a list to make you eager to see your
dealer this month. Drop in at the nearest Columbia store the first chance you get today.
