Another ship was added yesterday to the string of mystery crnft sighted recently off the At lantic Coast and suspected of everything from piracy to rum-running.

Tho Kootie's officers said the stranger had remained four miles distant. She carried three musts and two funnels. Two cargo booms, usunlly snugged down while ships are at sea, were rigged to the foremast. An effort to exchange rndlo messages failed when the ship refused to answer.

Mnyor Moore, however, is personally In the fight. lib eyes rcnlly "glitter with gleo" as ho talks about thn situa tion. Ho Is happiest In n fight. City Hall looks to sec him unhook many a "wicked waUop" ut the opposition nnd swing his bnttle-nx. Politically, it is apparent thnt the Mayor's strategy is thnt of splitting the combine nnd forcing n line-up of Pen rose nnd Moore lender, with independ ents, against the Vares. in vas the case in the mnyornlty campaign, .lust the bnme. the Mayor is willing to go into a fight with Penrose if that be necessary. But for the present, It wns ex plained, the Mnyor hopes to isolate the Vaves and thereby wenken them so fur ns their influence is concerned in the mnking up of the county ticket. Tlic Mayor bnliees Penrose would like to smash a Vure-wrlttcn slnte. Hut the Mayor wants the senior United States Senator to step right out in meeting and Sll so. Further, the Major lios another idea.

Director Tustln said today he did not expect the changes before that time, while Superintendent of Po lice Mills said lie had received no otficiul orders to make the transfers. devices and with no urging from Pen rose, Big Tom would take the enslest way out nnd join in the framing of n harmony ticket with tho Vares. Mnyor Moore's tactics at this time arc to force Cunningham to put Pen rose's thoughts into action. In short, the Mnjor is not only forcing Penrose; lie is nt the some time trying to force Ctiniiingli.ini to make good ns Penrose lender in Pliilod Iphln. With Penio.c feeling toward the Voici ns he snjh he feels, the Mn.Mir bellows- tlmt Cunning hum is lying down on tho job of repre senting Penrose. What the Major wants right now, pending the dcwlopment of his own tire, is to hnve Penrose give orders to Big Tom. These orders would be logically that Cunningham and other Pcnroso leaders stand by the Mayor. Otherwise It is felt Penrose docs not mean what he sajs.

That security, however, he declared, ought to rest upon the mnderntlon with which tho victors used their power, and upon equity in apportioning Sllesln. The Brltlfh Empire, tho Primo Minister do clnrcd, would never be dragged into another war caused by the oppressive uso of superior forco or tho abuse of justice In n time of triumph. Asperity Disappears With today's meeting of the Council nil nsperlty between the French and British delegations over the Slleslnn boundary apparently hnd disappeared, noth sides nro agreed, it seems, thnt thero must bo compromise ovor this question nnd that tho unity of the Al lied Powers cannot bo wrecked over n mntter so relntlvcly unimportant. The council resumed formal hearings of the Upper Sllcslan experts todny, but no ono seemed really interested In what they hnd to say. The conference thus far hns shown n mnrked contrast to Hi bitter conten tions of the Snn Homo, Paris. Bou logne nnd London Supreme Council meetings. In this connection Mr. Lloyd Goorgo 1h quoted as hnving remarked that tho mere presence of the Amcrlcnn Ambassndor has had a stnbllizlng ef fect. It Is felt thnt he brought with him a calm outside view that tended to soften the sharpness of tho controversy. The presence of Georgo Harvey, tho United States Ambassador to Great Britain, has led to suggestions in un official quarters that he may play n definite role in settling the vexing Sl leslnn question. Mr. Harvey has made no statement, but there Is an assumption thnt any notion ho may take will be directed by thu State Department In Washington. Brigadier General II. T. Allen, commander-in-chief of the American Army of Occupation, was called before the Supremo Council Immediately after It opened this morning's session. When General Allen arrived In Paris It was understood that he had como to consult with Ambassador Harvey on the subject of tho cost of maintaining American troops In Germany.
