une today prints the statement, which It
pays comes from Washington, that Secre
tary of the Treasury McAdoo la slated to
become Chairman of the Democratic Na
tional Committee, resigning as Secretary

The obstacle In the way of this plan, the
article says, would be the objection of the
National Committee to going outside Its
own membership for a chairman.
Senator Wlllard Saulsbury, of Delaware,
or Wilbur W, Marsh, of Iowa, are the two
members between whom the chairmanship
lies If the McAdoo arrangement does not
go through, the article adds.

WHTIG RESIGNS CITY
COMMITTEE CLERKSHIP
AS VARES GET CONTROL
Voluntary Action of M.cNichol
Man FoIIowb His Service of
More Than 25
Years
PINLEY MAY GET PLACE
Harry Wlttlg, chief clerk of the Repub
lican City Committee for 10 years, offi
cially .connected with the committee for
more than 25 years and known In political
circles as the "master of detail" of the Re
publican Organization, will retire on Wed
nesday, when the City Committee meets to
organize.
His nctlon, which will be voluntary. ,wlll
come as a direct result of the complete
Vnre control of the City Committee, which
will be made certain tonight when various
ward committees meet to elect their City
Committeemen. The appointment of Mr.
Wlttlg. a McNIchol man, would not bo op
posed by tho Vares, It Is understood, on ac
count of his long service, but he will retire
of his own accord, for he would nnd him
self In the unpleasant position of n Mc
NIchol adherent serving officially on n Vnre
committee.
For the last few days Mr. Wlttlg has been
secretary 'of tho City Committee In all ex
cept name. The laws of the committee re
quire that ,the position of secretary be filled
by Its members. John McClenry and State
Senator Edward W. Patton are now Oiling
the secretaryship, but Mr. Wlttlg has been
performing virtually all the duties which
fall to the position.
William Flnley, Select Councilman from
the( SJth Ward nnd a close political fol
lower of tho Vares, will probably bo chosen
on Wednesday .to succeed Mr. Wlttlg. Mr.
Wlttlg will contlnuo to serve as Scrgcnnt-at-arms
of Select Council,
David If. Lane, chalrmnn of tho Repub
lican City Committee, will be re-elected
without opposition, It Is expected,
A new treasurer will have to be chosen,
however, ns Robert Moore. McNIchol fol
lower from the 4th Ward, and the Incum
bonts lost control of his precinct to Samuel
W. Satus, a Varo lieutenant. In the recent
Primary election, Moore, therefore, will
not be a member of, tho new City Committee.
His successor Is a matter of speculation.
Senator Varo has remained In the city
to take charge personally of the reorganiza
tion of the City Committee, nnd to build
up his fences In all wards where the pres
ent domination Is uncertain. Today ho
launched a move to defeat Blakely Mc
Caughan, candidate for ro-elcctlon to the
City Committee from tho 24th ward, nnd
Oscar C. Noll, stated candidate for re-election
from tho 3Jth Ward. Both aro Mc
NIchol men. and the Vares are determined
to wrest tho ward central from tho Pen-rose-McNIchol
faction In these two wards.
Members of the Vard Committee In the
37th Ward wero notified today that unless
they elected Arthur Brenner, a Varo man,
and an employe In tho office of the Clerk
of Courts, to tho City Committee tonight,
their section would receive no patronage,
The same warning was Issued to the mem
bers of tlo Ward Committee ln the 24th
Ward. Michael Crnne has been selected to
oppose McCaughan In this ward.
It Is rumored today that the Penrose
McNIchol members of tho City Committee
might bolt and form a Rump Committee on
the grounds that' the Vares havo used -the
club of patronage to rule the Wardr Com
mittees. Senator McNIchol In a statement Issued
on the train while en route to Chicago
gave credence to this rumor. Ho attacked
tho Varo control of the City Committee and
"mere paper control which has been won by
coercion of ofllce-holders and the lure of
additional ofTicers."
McNIQHOL'S , STATEMENT.
The statement follows:
"The Vares and Mayor Smith have been
working for weeks to get control of the
City Committee. To that end. and In re
pudiation of the verdict of the people Iri
favor of Senator Penrose In the primary
election, officeholders havo been coerced In
an outrageous manner. Further, members
of ward committees were won over by the
offer of odlces. In at' least nine wards
where public sentiment as expressed In
actual votes was clearly opposed to the
Vare-Smlth combination, they aro supplant
ing tho trained workers of yeara for un
tried neophytes.
"In all this the Mayor and his directors
aro taking part, and why are they doing It?
Just for vnlnglory; that Is all. Control of
the City Committee In such clrcumstnnces
Is a paper, a mere fictitious, control. Tho
political power ot the City Committee is be
ing disastrously weakened Instead of
strengthened. Surely they must know that.
But they are trying to blind the eyes of the
people to the success of Senator Penrose
ln the State-wide fight by proclaiming con
trol of a weakened City Committee. They
nlm at making It seem as If Penrose, and
not themselves had been defeated. But
the voters know better."

old,
Only yesterday an article written by Mr.
I lowland appeared In tho Pum.tc LEDaen.
It was entitled "A Warning nnd an Appeal,"
and called upon Americans to realize the
need for preparedness. His views, ns he
summnrlzed them In this article, are!
"1 speak ns one who would try to arouse
ll.c sleeping ones among us to nn under
standing of what things that really count
In this world not money, not commercial
mastery J but the things that make It worth
while for men to be men we have today
at hazard, and that, -If wo' are to bo worthy
as a nation collectively nnd Individually,
we must prepare to' defend,"
HONOIIRD BY QUKBN.
Frederick Itoppln Howtand'n services In
tho field of journalism won him fame nnd
honors abroad ns well as nt home. Aa a
correspondent bo accompanied armies In
nation nnd his dcscrlptlvo articles of the
scenes In Washington preceding tho Spanish-American
War nnd later In the Trans
vaal, wherein ho won Her Majesty's serv
ice medal, were regarded both graphically
and accurately ns valuable additions to the
literature of thoso events In world history.
Mr. Howland wns In every sense a cos
mopolite, his residence and acquaintance
carrying him far afield from his natlvo Now
Englnnd. Ho was born In New Bedford,
Mass., January 10, 1871, his parents being
Blchard Smith and Mary Hoppln How
land. In early childhood began the travel
ing career which openod for him tho width
of the world as a course for his subse
quent career. At tho nge of 8, ho entered
St Matthew's School, at San Mnteo, Cal.,
where ho remained three years, Again
crossing the continent, ho continued his cle
mentnry education In Providence, It. I.,
matriculating ln tho Massachusetts Insti
tute of Technology when 18 years old.
Upon graduation from this Institution In
1833, he had to his credit two tours of
Europe, mado In 1889 nnd 1891.
WITH PIIOVIDENCI3 JOURNAL.
Immediately upon leaving college, Mr.
Howland entered upon his Journalistic ca
reer. The Providence Journal was llrst to
secure his services, and, after ono year,
when but 23 years of ago, he became the
Washington correspondent of that paper.
Four years' brilliant servlco at the national
capital was succeeded by two years ns
New York correspondent of tho same pub
lication, A fow years later t,ho Providence
Journal was to know Mr. Howland aB Its
treasurer and rnanager.
With tho outbreak of hostilities In South
Africa, Mr. Howland resigned his Ameri
can connections nnd went to tho theatre of
action, although retaining his association
with the Providence Journal as war corre
spondent. He served In a similar capacity
with tho London Dally Mall and the Lon
don Evening Nows. During this portod
Mr. Howland was attached to the columns
of General Hunter, Lord Mcthuen and Gen
eral Broadwood, nnd ,hls experiences are
largely covered In "The Chaso of Do Wet,"
which ho wrote at the close ot tho Boer
war. For his work In this connection Mr.
Howland received her Majesty's service
modal, and was hailed as one of the fore
most of war correspondents.
Returning to America In 1901, he mar
ried Miss Ellen Swann Dobbin, of Balti
more, who survives him with three chil
dren, Mary, Elizabeth and Ellen. Resum
ing his Washington correspondence for the
Providence Journal, he remained with that
paper until 1906, when ho became editor
and part owner of the Providence Tribune.
The next year and 1908 were spent In
Europe and Cuba, affording opportunity for
entertaining and Instructive articles on
conditions in tho countries visited.
During 1909 and 1910 Mr. Howland was
In charge of tho publication department of
tho Boston Chamber of Commerce nnd ed
itor of the Chamber of Commerce Bulletin.
In the latter year he came to Philadelphia.
The next two years found him a member
of tho staff of the Philadelphia Press and
an associate editor of that paper. He re
tained this connection until about one year
ago. He took charge of the' publicity bu
reau of the Chamber of Commerce of this
city, retaining that-position until n few
weeks ago, when his health compelled his
retirement.
Mr, Howland was a member of the lilt
tenhouse Club, the Hope Club of Provi
dence and the Century Club of Washing
ton. His parents, who now live, at Ashevllle,
N, C, survive him, ns do four brothers,
