The Governor Is expected to renrh his homo in Chester Saturday from Hut Springs, Vn., where .he 1ms been n enneruting from nn atlmk of rheuma tism. Lenders of the Penrose faction, it is understood, will put up the propo sition of n fight to the finish on the Woodward charter bills and the Isnuly registration measures shortly after the Governor arrives from Hot Springs. Senator Penrose and the politicnl cle meats aligned with him nre said to be t anxious for a showdown on the bills which have been sleeping in the Legis lature for some weeks, nnd are anxious to lock horns with the Vnrc forces in factional strife. Politicians to Gather Here Senator Penrose is planning to go to Harrisburg next week to direct bis forces in the prospectic battle. A scries of conferences between him nnd up-stute Republican leaders, who nre aligned with his faction, are scheduled for over the week-end. Politicians from all sections of the state arc expected here! over Friday and 'Saturday. Senator William II. Crow, Republican stnte chairman, may not arrive until later. Ho is now at his home in Uniontown. Amendments to strengthen the char ter bills, and add possibly a "ripper" or two may be submitted at the coming conference for consideration. So fnr the governor is understood to have op posed any proposed ripper legislation 'and has taken the attitude that the irival factins in Philadelphia "should reach an ngrcement on a new charter for the city. Persons in close touch with the Gov ernor declare that he will have the final say on the charter revision measures and that neither the Penrose forces nor the Vare forces will be permitted to amend them in any manner which does not satisfy him. Vare lieutenants confidently assert that a charter revision program will be put through the Legislature, but that it will contain radical changes over the Woodward bills. They contend that the governor will demand a city budget system, tho elim ination of the police and firemen from politics nnd the elimination of dual ocn hnldlncr. On the aucstion of a small council, Vare men maintain it was shown at the recent charter re vision hearing in this city thnt the pres ent system of n dual chamber has been demonstrated to be capable and effi r cicnt in handling the city's affairs.

The other would require division registrars to make returns to the registration com missioners on the Monday following registration day, instead of Tuesday, as is required under the present law. , George W.

The other will afford more time following registration days In which to complete street lists of Toters. OPEN NAVY YARD TERMINUS .Cars Start Running to Heart of U. v. S.

EXHIBIT OPENS 26 Artists Represented in No table Collection of Paint ings at Academy SUBJECTS ARE VARIED An exhibition of war paintings nnd drawincs by eminent British nrtistt opened this morning at the Academy of the Pine Arts. The exhibit will do in Philadelphia for one mouth. The pictures arc being shown throughout the country on behalf of the British Government. Arrangements for the tour were made under the di rection of Raymond Wycr, director of the Worcester Art Museum, Worces ter. Mass. There are 242 pictures in the col lection, renresentine the work of twenty-six artists. Of this number 103 arc the contribution of Sir Willinm Orpen. The other artists are AV. R. Adcney, Alfred Bentley, Muirhead Bone, Frank Rrangwyn, George CInusen. Jncob Epstein, John Everett, Colin W. Gill, C. J. Holmes, Augustus John, Eric II. Kcnnington, Sir John Lavery, AVyndhnm Lewis, James Me Bey, Bernard Mcninky, John Xash, Paul Nash, C. R. W. Xevinson, G. Spencer Prysc, William P. Roberts, William Rothcnstcin, Henry Rushbury, Randolph Sehwabe, E. A. Vcrpilleux and Harrington Mann. The subjects of the paintings and drawings embrace every conceivable im pression which the war made upon them. Mediums emplojed include oil, water-color, crnon, ink and pencil. Orpen's Work Cynosure Though in competition with the paintings of Sir John Lavery, one of the bett-known English portrait paint ers, and other artists of the front rank, who arc known in America ns well as in J.nglami, Mr vv nimm urpen 11ns sified and exquisite as to draw chief attention to his own works. Sir John Lncry has ho portraits iu the collec tion. Sir "William Orpen was chosen to officiallj paint the scene of the trans fer of the German high seas fleet to the Allied command. Among his portraits nre those of Marshall Foch aud Field Marshall Haie. General Rawlinson nnd other British and French high officers. Sir William was himself constantly t the front and one of the most finely done and impressive of his portraits is one of himself, clad in the British uniform und standing iu a trench. Three Tommies in Largo Group The largest picture is one by Augus tus John, depictiug three British Tom mies, lighting each other's cigarettes in front of a battered village house. It is culled Fraternity. Another large oil is by George Clausen and is called Renais sance. It typifies, in the form of a young woman in the nude, surrounded by several other figures, the rebirth of Belgium; It is ennobling in its con ception, ably executed and beautiful in color. A number of pictures in the works of C. R. W. Xevinson, who is exhibiting' the third largest number, show a tendency towards tho cubist school, as do also several others. Many of the pictures of James McBey, who' has the second largest number in the collection, twenty-six, are dono in re strained tones, although their subjects, of course, appertain to war. They are dono largely in brownish tints. Some of the paintings are obviously exaggerated in anatomical effects, in order, no doubt, to convey an impression other than one to be derived from mere objective nnd technical inspection rri, ,t.th;f ta nn ,i.ii ,i 'd,rA is no charge made for admfssion.

Thus Adolnh Segal, builder Of mil lions, recently married to u beautiful New York pianist, opened an interview at the Hanover Hotel, where he is liv ing, ns he himelf expresses it, "incog nito." Mr. Segal, whne sensational finan cial exploits astonished the nation nnd resulted in one man's suicide, is going to rebuild his fortunes nn a greater scale than ever before, he says. Ro lenxfd from u sanitarium, where he re mained for two jenrs and three months, he has already arranged fcr the con struction of ii giant sugar refinery nt Wilmington, Del., he asserts, nnd has "other operations" which include the purchase of n newspaper. He will num ber his cmplojes today by tho thou sands, he says. The former millionaire docs not show even the fifty -three years that he sajs arc his. Save for bis graying hair nnd mustache he might pass for n man fifteen years younger. "Is Mrs. Segal in Philadelphia?" was a question which brought nn out burst. "It is outrageous to say she is twenty jears old," said Segal. "She is thirty four years old. Beautiful? jes; but no child." "Will your system of finance be dif ferent in the future from what it was?" hp was asked. Will your publisher change his views overnight? he counter-ques-qucstioned. Never Dishonorable "I have never done a dishonorable thing nor hurt any man who did not first try to hurt me," he added. "My object in life has been to build. That is what I will do for the rest of my life but on a bigger scale than before. I feci that I am building now for human ity." The constructor of the Battram Apartments, the Majestic Hotel nnd the giver pf thousands of dollars to Phila delphia charities will be the bamc in future as be was in the past so he said. "It is not for money that 1 work, but for achievement," was his way of put-. nS " And then the discussion swerved to I the more personal topics. How bad he met Mrs. Segal? " "She is u pianist," he replied. "My first wife was given to literature. She wrote many tnings. iier dooks are nil I have left, save "her photographs. I want to give the books away. I have fio sets . of live volumes each of her works poetry, essajs and the like and I want a chance to distribute these books to some library, or to uuy one who will upprccinte them." Segal's room is filled with memoirs of his former glory. He has even saved blank checks on which is engruved full length, a picture of his boy, then a lad of twelve years.

The dog was wet and cold and snug gled up closely to the prisoner. The turnkey noticed that the poodle fre quently licked the hand of the man, who slent soundly with his arm tightly wrapped around the frail little body of the poodle. . The prisoner gave his name as John Ilaggert, and said he lived at I'cnnock and Poplar streets. Patrolman Turner said he arrested ! Haggert last night at Twelfth and iAreh streets, ffhc dog answered the description of one which had been stolen from n society woman. Turner ! felt fcuro the poodle didn't belong to 'Haggert, nnd bo he arrested him on ,su8cion. , Magistrate Grelis agreed that the cvi- i dence against Haggert was slim. "If u can Prove the dog is jours," said ,thc Judge, "we'll let you go." I And even as the judge mado the sug- igcstion, "Kelly" for that is the dog's name whose instinct told him some thing wns wrong, rubbed his damp lit tle body against the prisoner's legs. I Ilaggert straightened up and stood like a soldier. " 'Kelly'," he shouted, "stand at attention!" The poodle stood on his hind legs with head up proudly "Show us how the Yanks chased the Germans," said Haggert. The poodle barked viciou'sly and ran across' the room with head bowed. "Halt!" commanded Haggert. Little "Kelly" stopped buddenly, stood on his bind legs, turned about-face, and went to Haggert In short jumps. Even the magistrate applauded "You and your little army have won," he said, "and you're dls charged," "Attention!"' commanded Haggert. "Kelly" jumped to his1 hind legs. "Forward, march" said Haggert.

"I get time to arrange my plans, was his indirect reply. "How did jou come to start the con struction work on this "Wilmington re finery?" Segal was usked. During a Panic "When I built the Bartram Apart ment," he replied, "a panic was on. They have referred to my 'indomitable purpose' and a lot more of the like in a special book whiclf they published commemorating the Bartram," He paused for a moment. "There is no such thing as good luck and bad luck," he went on. "There is only the purpose to win or the purpose to lose. I have' .'won, and I will win. The determination to lose is not born iu me." Mr. Segal, referring to his stay in the sanitarium, said: "My illness prevented me from doing much good, either for Philadelphia or for my country. "It wns uufortunate tliut I should have been takou ill when I was." Throughout the interview he recurred to "my illness." "What of the future of the nation?" he wns asked. 'Tor the United States," ho replied, "I see nothing but prosperity. Wc are in all the zones from the arctic to the tropic from Alaska to Florida. "Consequently we can 'produce all things. We are able to give to the nations of Europe the things that they demand, and as long as we arc able to do this we shall not suffer." "But what nbout a panic?" was the question. "Suppose, for example, u millionaire banker thould shoot him self." Again there was that expression of i wrath which was first exhibited when hjs aar. rmfi intn nuestinn "Shoot himself? Shoot himself?" said Segal. "If he does that he shows that he is n Bolshevist a coward afraid to face the facts or to face men. I did not commit suicide!" He produced a triungular cigar from a most expensive case a cigar that must have cost nearly half a dollar w holesale. "We will forget about Bolshevists," ho suggested. And then be argued in a general fashion the value of newspaper enter prise. His one dream, he said, was to create : "A newspaper which shall be inde pendent of any question of revenue." And he concluded with the thought: Hope is our happiness and our health. Without hop.e we shall die."

It was recalled by officials today that General Graves had been .specifically warned to abstain from interfering with any factional fights in Siberia and cau tioned not to mix iu the political situa tion. It wns pointed out that the va rious uprisings in Siberia hod resulted in tho charge of Bolshevism against the defeated party iu every instance. It wns stated also that it was without the province of the United States to defend any politicnl faction or to try to define the term "bolshevik" as used in eastern Siberia.

It is understood in official circles here that the British aud I'lenrh forces are under instructions similar to thosfe given Generul Graves and hne consistently maintained the same attitude. N.J. WANTS NATIONAL GUARD V Adjutant General Says Two Com panies Are Needed to Preserve Peace Trenton, April 10. Governor Edge, through Adjutant General Gilkyson, has officially presented to the chief, of the militia bureau, at Washington, a request for nuthority to organize nt once two regiments of infantry national guard in this state. He wrote: "To meet any emergency within the state during the period of the war there were organized seven battalion1) and two separate companies of militia upon which was expended from state funds for uniforms, equipment! and training $300,000 ; nnd I am of the opinion that now that an early return to peace is anticipated, the stae should be relieved of the great expense of further main taining a militia force. "During the past two months there have been numerous labor difficulties iu many sections of the state, aud at pres ent there are strikes in Morris nnd I'assaic counties involving over 20,000 laborers. The growing discontent on the part of labor and the large tempor ary foreign population increase the liability of riot and disorder, which facts in my opinion justify the author ization by the federal authorities of uu adequate, military force for the purpose of securing proper protection for, the people and industries of the state, and to meet any emergency nnd suppress riot or disorder which may arise beyond the power of the local authorities to quell."
