The proceedings were the result of the

accused of threatening to have the
liquor license of a hotel revoked If the
managers of the hotel did not ote right
Ex-Judge Cole appeared for the man on

of engineering specialists, sailed today on
tho steamship Krlstlanlafjord for Petro

Since last October Mr Poynor and Ida as
sociate engineers hae mado extended trips
to tho Industrial centres In America with
the object of conferring with manufacturers
and inspecting the product of their factories
The direct result of this has been the con
cluding of Important working arrangements
with many of the leading manufacturers
"In this work wa havo met with co
operation eerywhero." said Mr. Poynor
"The American manufacturer Is well alive
to the tremendous possibilities for trado
that tho Russian market will offer after

ROOSEVELT MAY MAKE
HURRAH TRIP TO CHICAGO
Continued from Pate One
to change the situation until the delegates
arrive.
A large portion of the men who will ex
press tho sentiment of the country are on
the way here, and the special trains are
scheduled to begin arriving Sunday morn
ing, There have been several conferences be
tween the managers for the avowed can
didates and the Progressive leaders to date,
but not a single direct offer of a bargain
has been made. Whether a real effort
will be made to do business before the con
ventions actually meet will depend on cir
cumstances. The methods of the Roose
velt boosters are characteristically Roose
veltlan. Each manager Is assured how
well the Roosevelt men think of his can
didate, and how sorry they are for the
fact that the Colonel and the real Issues
of the campaign, are so closely united that
he cannot retire In favor of that particu
lar aspirant. And. despite the fact the
managers Include In their ranks some of
the most experienced politicians In the
United States, they have all fallen for the
"sales."
PALL FOR "OLD STUFF,"
For a while yesterday the WeekB men
were Insistent that they would get the
colonel's support when he realized that
he COUld not be nrtmlrratpfl. iitiiI It wna .in
r until this claim collided with a similar
one on behalf of Charles. W. Fairbanks
that the leaders began to get wise that
they had fallen for ''old stuff "
But the fact that thia was a part of a
plan of campaign did not cause unpreju
diced outsiders to lose sight of the fact
that "bad blood" and bitter animosities of
tour years ago have been wiped out While
Progressive leader are particularly in
slstent that Colonel Roosevelt has made
the Issues with which President Wilson can
be defeated for re-election and that the
Issues cannot be taken and this creator
Ignored, the few delegates on the ground

NEW YORK. Juno 3. A suit for 1,
000,000 damages for aleged breach or prom
ise to marry the largest award a New
York court has ever been asked to grant
in such a case was filod yesterday in tho
Supremo Court her against William Edgar
Smith, a resident of tho Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel. His father, William Van Rensselaer
Smith, was one of those "Inconspicuous
millionaires that New York bo frequently
produces. The extent of his fortune, $G,
600,000, amazed the town when his will
was mado public.
Tho complainant against Mr. Smith Is
Miss Caislo Mansfield Doty, a kinswoman
of his, who llve3 nt tho Hotel Touralne.
Hor mother and Mr. Smith's father, she
said last night, wero first cousins Sho ls
a grandnlcce of General Joseph Mansfield,
a Union coinmnnder, who was killed at the
Battle of Antlctam. Another granduncle
was Governor Buckingham, of Massachu
setts, known ns the "Fighting Executive"
of that Stato. Sho Is a woman of com
fortable means, who has spent most of her
liio in tnia city ana New Haven, Conn.
Miss Doty charges In her complaint that
hor cousin, Mr. Smith, nsked for her hand
In July, 1911, and that she accepted him,
the two agreeing that tho marriage should
bo performed on February 6, 1912.
"I have allowed moro than four years
to pass In the belief that Mr. Smith might
fulfil his promise," she said last night, "but
recently I have camo to the belief that he
did not ntend to do so, and consequently
felt that I should have recourse to the
law. Yea", I Intend to go through with the
suit and shall not hesitate to tako my place
upon the witness stand and tell about my
friendship with and betrothal to Mr.
Smith."
HUGHES STANDS FOR
PREPAREDNESS OF U. S.
Continued from Fsie One
all on the question of preparedness," said
one of his closest associates significantly,
"thav hfiA'A rhnntrMl wtih tha tlmio T, i
certain he Is not a peace-at-any.prlce man "
FAVORS PREPAREDNESS.
In 1908, Justlco Hughes made n speech
beforo the Republican Club, In New York,
In which ho said:
We are devoted to the Interests of
peace and we cherish no policy of ag
gresslon. The maintenance of our
Ideals Is our surest protection. It Is
our constant aim to live In friendship
with all nations and to realize the
alms of a free Government, secure
from the Interruptions of strife and the
wastes of war. It Is entirely consistent
with these alms and It Is our duty to
make adequate provision for our de
fense and to maintain tho efficiency of
our army and navy. And this I favor.
Those who havo read the remarks of
Just ce Hughes at that time give him
credit for great foresight, because at the
time preparedness was not a vital tissue.
That Justice Hughes will work for re
demption of a progressive platform If he
should be nominated and ejected Is cen
sldered certain, because of the character
of opposition directed against him.
PROBABLY WOULD ACCEPT.
The Issuance of statements by Justice
Hughes' secretary, the last one yesterday,
has not changed In any particular the
general impression in Washington that the
Justice gladly will give up his Supreme
Court robesMf he is nominated In Chicago.
Attention repeatedly is called to the fact
that Justice Hughes has never said that
he would" ttot accept the nomination. In
nu icuors unu leiegrams, bearing on the
use of his name as a presidential possibility,
he has insisted that he was "not a candl
date." As a matter of fact the Issuance of de
nials from Justice Hughes' home had
the effect of convincing many that he is
not only willing, but anxious to land the
nomination. If he were not a candidate,
political leaders argue, he would let the
rumorB pass unnoticed. It Is not customary
for a Supreme Court Justice to dignify
rumors and newspaper stories with formal
statements Issued through his secretary.

The Logic of His
Public Career
THE Hon. Travis H. Whitney, of tho
Public Service Commission of New
York, has written an article for
tomorrow's Public Ledger on the logic of
Justice Hughes' public career.
He contends that in these times, when
we hear so much of the importance of
universal training and compulsory service,
men trained to the duties of a republic must
be subject to call, even to draft, if needs bel
It is from this unique angle he writes in
advocacy of the man who refuses to fur
ther hia own nomination for President.
The coming Presidential election prom
ises to be the most important in the history
of the United States. This article is a de
tailed and authenticated analysis of the
