FRANCIS J, HENEY
BE SELECTED 1" m t To Prosecute For Government the California White Slave Cases. (National News Association) WASHINGTON, June 25 It was stated at the white house today as practically certain that Francis J. Heney, the San Francisco prosecutor who convicted Abe Ruef of grafting, and who successfully conducted a number of other important criminal cases, will be placed In charge of the DiggB-Camlnettl white slave case. The only obstacle to Heney's appointment as special counsel in this case Is a political one, Heney being a Progressive. It is admitted that his appointment to take charge of the white elave cases at this time will tremendously help Heney's candidacy for the United States senate. However, as President Wilson is, beJnf informed on all sides that Heney Is the man to manage the government's side of the case it is probable he will case aside all political considerations and appoint Heney as special counsel. A CONFERENCE HELD. The president today confered with Attorney General McReynolds and Rep. Kahn of California on the white lave cases, but neither side would make any statement following the conference. Both the white house and the department of Justice said that the McIriab matter Is closed, the president having accepted U. S. District Attorney McNab'g resignation. The government Is only interested in obtaining Justice for Diggs and Caminettl now, It was announced. Rumors that Attorney General McReynolds Is about to leave the cabinet have been greatly'strengthened by the developments in the Dlggs-Caminetti case. MJNfeb tendered his resignation for the alleged reason .that the department of Justice had hindered him in his prosecution of the white slave cases. Resolutions have been offered In the house and senate calling for tfee correspondence int'the case. TO ASSIST HISiSON. WASHINGTON June 25. Antonio Camtnetti, commissioner general of immigration and father of one of the alleged white slavers now awaiting trial at San Francisco will be allowed to be present at his son's triaj, according to information at the white house today. President Wilson, after informing the attorney general yesterday that he wanted the cases of Caminetti and Diggs sent to trial, also informed the secretary of labor that he thought it Jbeet to allow Commissioner Caminettl to go west at once, instead of waiting until fall as the secretary desired. Accordingly Caminetti will be granted leave of absence in time to insure his presence in California when his son comes to trial. CORDIAL TO FRANCE !London Greets President Poincare Heartily. (National New Association) , LONDON, June 25. A remarkable 'demonstration of friendship was given in the streets of London today when President Raymond Poincaire of France was driven from York house 'to Guild Hall where he was enterjtained at luncheon by the lord mayor 'of London and the corporation of the city of London. The French executive was driven through troop lined streets -and was escorted by the horse guards. . M. Poincaire said he was doubly touched by the marked cordiality. Measures were taken to prevent any interruption by mllftant suffragettes. President Poincaire seemed amused at the thought of violence from women and discussed the suffragette movement in England. This evening President Poincaire .will return King George's hospitality iby giving a dinner in the French embnsay, which will be presided over by (Paul Cambon, the French ambassador to England.

R. and I. train from the north which makes connection with .trains for Cincinnati, Louisville, and Indianapolis at 4:55 p. m. was three hours and thirty minutes late this morning. The clock in the Union station was dead last night and is in mourning this morning, its face being hidden by newspapers. As is customary when things die, a man was called in to undertake to resurrect, or to bury. In this case the Jeweler succeeded In persuading the lifeless clock to resume its weary round of hours. But It soon stopped again. That persons waiting at the station might not be confused by a lieing clock, fibbing because it refuses to run, its face was draped in paper. UNCLE SAM GIVES HOT WEATHER TIPS (National News Association) WASHINGTON, June 25. The last word in hot weather "don'ts" was issued in brief form today by Dr. Carl Alsberg, who succeeded Dr. Harvey W. Wiley as chief of the United States Bureau of Chemistry. Dr. Alsberg, it develops would abolish the ther-. mometer because of its dispiriting influence on the minds of perspiring men and women. Here are his "don'ts:" "Don't eat to excess. "Don't wear too many clothes. "Don't drink ice cold beverages. "Don't look at the thermometer and keep thinking how hot it is." Iced drinks are one of Dr. Alsberg's abominations, for he says they not only disorder the stomach but they also interfere with digestion. The secret of keeping cool in the dog days, according to Dr. Alsberg, lies largely in temperate eating, taking just enough sustenance to keep off the pangs of hunger. "But," says the doctor, "above all things keep your eyes from the thermometer." NEWS NUGGETS (National News Association) MANHATTAN. Kas., June 25.

TWO HOOSIERS ABE BEINGCONSIDERED To Make Selectfon For United States Minister to Portugal.
(National News WASHINGTON, Association) June 25. The names of two-well known Indianians will be among those presented to President Wilson for consideration ' when he takes up the matter of selec-! tine a United States minister to Portugal in place of Meredith Nicholson, , whose declination reached the White House today. j The two whose names will be canvassed are Maj. G. V. Menzies of Mt. I Vernon and Jacob P. Dunn ot India- j napolis. Neither is an applicant for j any aipiomatic appointment, iseitner ; is aware that his name has ever been mentioned in this connection. The ! booms of both are in the incipient ' stage, but may develop promisingly ! during the next week or two. It is not likely that any friction will I be created, as the influence is the same behind both. It will be a case of the President looking both over and taking his choice, provided he decides that the appointment is to go to Indiana, which is not at all certain. Still the fact remains that, because an Indianian was offered the post, there is a sort of hook out upon which to hang a claim that Indiana shall be ,,:"a,u npuiniLLifin. wut-u if is finally made Concerning Maj. Menzies and Mr. Dunn the point is made that either has the ability to fill the ministry at Lisbon with distinguished credit to the United States and with honor to himself. It is apprehended that William J. Bryan, premier of the administration, would not be espeklally friendly to Maj. Menzies who was frank and outspoken in his opposition to Bryan during several campaigns. But, for that matter, Mr. Bryan was not personally favorable to Meredith Nicholson. His attitude in all diplomatic nominations is that the appointments are the President's and although the diplomatic service is included in Mr. Bryan's department he never seeks to interfere when the President expresses a preference for a certain man as an ambassador or minister. Mr. Menzies early in the administration was an applicant for the governor generalship of the Philippines and was widely indorsed by Indiana Democratic state officials and leaders in the party generally. Dunn a Literary Man. Concerning Mr. Dunn, the points to be urged are that he is both a scholar and a literary man, capable of filling the office of minister to Portugal in ac cordance with the highest ideals of the diplomatic service. In this connection it is pointed out, also, that his politics always have been of the "regular" brand. He supported Bryan and free silver without turning a hair and Secretary Bryan cherishes very pleasant recollections of him. It is too early yet to state whether Indiana stands any show of getting the place. The weight of opinion at the present time probably would be that Indiana lost out when Mr. Nicholson voluntarily surrendered the berth. Mr. Nicholson has in his possession a personal communication from the President regretting his decision to decline a place in the service. The White House will not make it public. Today a robust "knock" came from a well-known Indianapolis attorney, who objects to the appointment of Henry Warrum to the place declined by Nicholson. Meroaith and Words. George Merediths according to the London Chronicle, "employs that abominable contraction 'alright.' It can't be a printer's error, for it occurs more than once. And he uses it as early as 1S63, so that the abusers of our language may now claim Meredith of all men as their prophet. This is one of those things that baffle explanation, particularly from a writer whose use of words was meticulous and who always refused to delete the first 'e in 'judgment.' always spelling it 'Judgement in his novels. Some of us, however, will fight 'alright' to the bittei end." M l3

One Representative Would Use Navy For Commercial Purposes BY JONATHAN WINFIELD i great expense should not be used in WASHINGTON. June 25. Follow- j advancing trade before they rot. and ing the announcement of Secretary j become Junk." of State William Jennings Bryan that j Mr. Goodwin proposed to direct a navy was useless and an army near- Secretary Daniels of the Navy Departly so, and that all that was necessary , ment to report within sixty days to to keep in order within the borders j Secretary Redield "the extent and of the United States and betwetsi the character of all space on all ships of United States and foreign nation was the United States Navy which might "arbitration," Representatives in Con- reasonably be temporarily used for
gress have come to the conclusion ; , f - that perhaps the Navy can be of some use anyway. Therefore Representative W. S. Goodwin, of Arkansas, sugRested that the United States battleships be made commercial agents. , He has proposed the turning of the ' battleship fleet into a traveling expo- J sition of the products of American ! farms and factories and sending it on j extended foreign tours. This Is carrying the Bryan idea a ; nttie rar, DUt at tne same time n there are going to be only two battleships in existence under the American flag when William Jennings Bryan "becomes President" "Friendship" and "Fellowship" its safe to say that the useless gUn, ammunition and tureet space can well be filled by an "exposition of American nushandry. What Result Would Be. Upon this theary. Rep. Goodwin got to work. If his enthusiasm should sweep Congress off its feet in the near future. England, France, Germany,

When a battleship is dressed, instead of flags flying from the twisted iron mastheads and lookout towers, there will be suspended from stem to stern strings of shoes from the Massachusetts factories. On the armor belt, just above the water line will be painted in large white letters, "made by the United States Steel Corporation." Instead of smokeless powder and torpedo, the battleships will be equipped with wheat and flour from Minnesota and Wisconsin, cornmeal from the "cqrn belt." From Admim! Dewey down the line to the youngest midshipman, the officers will be sent to special business schools which Uncle Sam will have to open. Enlisted men, in addition to their other duties will take courses in the practice of the warehousemen. Then after having sufficient knowledge In the premises. Uncle Sam will become an efficient traveling salesman visiting every port in the world and exploiting American merchandise, commodities and staples. What Goodwin Thinks. As Mr. Goodwin put it: "I see no reason why the American Navy should not be put to good use. j Opposed to senseless multiplication of j useless battleships I can see no reason why those we have built at so

the purpose of exhibiUn American manufactured articles and other articles or commerce. He proposes that the Secretary of Commerce shall allot space on American ships to American manufacturers, merchants. exporters, boards of trade, or other commercial organizations for use in exhibiting their wares, The scheme of Representative Goodwin has the hearty endorsement of a number of American Boards of naue u ""'"" j erican manufacturers. They see an i opportunity of getting before the peopie of the world an exhibit of their private energy at absolutely no ex - pense to themselves. An advertising medium which would extend to every port in the entire world a permanent "ad" which if attempted by private capital would cost millions of dollars. They are strong for the Goodwin bill and will back it. if it ever comes to an issue in Congress. They pooh pooh it and pass it along one of the many "fake" pieces of J legislation which spring up during c.. to a show down, naval officers declare they will resign from the Navy before they will peddle American merchan- ' dise to various ports of the world. No officer, they declare ever entered the Navy under the Impression that Uncle Sam would turn them into the nation's salesmen. They do not mind protecting the commercial interests of the United States by shells and fire, if it is necessary, but they do not care to engage in any commercial battles where business rivalry, or friendship and fellowship are the only weapon used in the encounter. They have put their foot down on the Goodwin proposition, absolutely and unanimously. SHADOW AND SUBSTANCE. You smile when you see a ch3d tryis)g to grasp its own shadow, but how many have been grasping shadows all their lives and will continue to reach out and grasp as long as breath and eyesight last! Get out of the shadow grasping habit if you have it. Begin this day to keep out of the gloom of the shadow and to be content only with the substance.
