I Senator Penrose made this statement
, to n group of newt-paper men who had

I while he wits receiving from Senator

Ml tills is disposed of, there would
probabl.v he no great difficulty In ob
taining the two-thirds vote whirh would
set the court to function and pioride
for the appointment ol commissions
when required.
At nnv rate, that would be easier
tl.au inducing t o-tl.irds of the Senate
to agree upon nil form of internatioii.il
organization. Mr. Harding is going to
have Ids trnnhh's in obtaining a tvvo-third-i

he is headed in the direction of an

doubtful bow man Democrat votes he
could obtain for an plan which involves

without Democrat tote. Mr. Harding
i annul succeed, even it lie should have
all the Kepiibllcun votes in the Senate,
unless he goes along with Mr. Knot.
Of course, if Mr. Harding persists in
working toward a formu' ussuemtiou of

much better this- morning, according to
news received nt the nrehlepiscopnl resi
dence from 1'niou Mills. Mil., where
the cardinal Is 111 nt the home of friend?.
The nicssaio came from Cardlnnl Gib
bons' secretary, who was quoted ns say
ing. "His Kmlncnrn N feeling fine nnd
Is talking about coming home."
All the Catholic religious communi
ties here, embracing tlv" various orders,
prayed throughout the greater part of
tho night for the cardinal. Kprclnl
prayers also were offered nt- nil
masses today by direction of Uishop
O. H. Corrignn. vlear ccncrnl of the

Continued from l'ate One
of recovery of the bodies, all will be
brought to the United States for in
terment, the body of Mr. Gibboney to
be brought here.
Mrs. Sliriver Heard First
First news of the tragedy came to
Mrs. Shriver. wife of Frifiik W. Shrh-pr.
ut her home in Highland Park. Slip j
immediately communicated with De- i
tective IJrouiiley, of Mr. Gibboney s
Philadelphia office, nnd lie, in turn,
wirctl the department of state in Wash
ington. Confirmation by Acting Sec
retary Davis followed, nnd representn
tives of the Tropical Products Co. linve
been cabled to send full detnlls of the
drowning, with advices ns to whether
the bodies were recovered.
The drowning of the four men, all of
whom weie virtually Philadelphlans,
creatod n sensation here. Gibboney's
long career as a public figure a career
in which he reached the crest nt the time
he was a candidate for the mayoralty
and which started its decline nfter sev
eral political defeats, with his eclipse
as a dominant public factor developing
with his alliance with the recent O rover
Hergdoll unsavory mess ended in
tropical waters, miles away from the
scenes of his early triumphs.
Tho history of John Markle climaxed
in the sniabhlng of the International
Lumber nnd Development Co., and the
imprisonment of Marklcy In the ICastern
Penitential. Hut Marklcy always be
lieved in Iiis Mexican ventute, even
if the means of notation were doubt
ful, and he was evidently Ir.tlng to
"imike good" on his oft-iepeated asser
tion that the .Mexican holdings were
highly valuable uml could be made to
give a return thnt wou'd compensate
the one-time International supporters
for their losses. He died while trying
to make this assertion n reality.
Luwrence Mnrkley, son of John It.
Maikley, was not so well kuotvu to
Philndelphians. He was still in his
twenties when the family, after the
father had served his term of impris
onment mid had been released, removed
to Klmhurst 111. Hut he wns fully ton
versaut with tho possibilities of the
Mexican venture, nnd ho was in Unit
cn.i.itry the greater part of tho time
siiiu rcoiganization of the old IntPr
national as tho Tropical Products Co.
was affected. lie believed, as did his
father, that under n new name and new
management and new methods the.
property could ho recouped, and tho
stigma of Iiis fnther'H connection with
the first financial smash could be re
moved. He died tryiug to make tlih
belief a reality.
