WARBURG WIL

BULKS IT Tells President He is Willing to Remain as Nominee for Reserve Board but Will not Appear Before Committee. WILSON WILL FIGHT FOR HIS CONFIRMATION Executive Certain New Yorker Will Be Accepted Despite Committee's Objections Foes Are Also Confident. WASHINGTON, July 9. Paul M. Warburg will permit his name to go before the senate for the federal reserve board if Pres. Wilson desires him to do so, but has not changed his determination not to appear before the committee on banking and currency. Word to this effect has come to the white house, it was announced today, and the white house let it be known that Pres. Wilson "will stand pat on the nomination and i'-ght for the confirmation of Warburg." The attitude of Warburg was satis factory to the president, as the executive has no doubt that he can obtain the confirmation of the New Yorker, even in the face of an unfavorable report from the banking committee. He also has decided to fight to the last ditch for Warburg, because he believes that the banker could not be repalced on the federal reserve board. Sens. S'hafroth and Thomas, of Colorado, today told the president that the senate undoubtedly would confirm Warburg's nomination and that an unfavorable report irom the committee would have little effect. Congratulate Wilson. Scores of telegrams ad letters have come to Pres. Wilson congratulating him on his statement relating to Warburg. Many of them predict that it will be the beginning of a better understanding between him and the business interests of the country. There is not the least possibility that Mr. Warburg will be confirmed by the senate unless he agrees to appear before the banking and currency committee, was the opinion expressed by a majority of the mem bers of the committee when informed i that Warburg had consented to allow his name to remain upon the list of the federal reserve board but would not appear before the committee. Hitchcock is Surp1!! Ken. Hitchcock of Nebraska, actinc chairman of the committee, was surprised to hear of Warburg's decision. "I thought our announcement concerning the Warburg case yesterday closed the matter," said Sen. Hitchcock. "A careful examination of that statement will show that the committee is united in its determination not to consider the Warburg nomination unless the nominee complies with our wishes. I believe that such a confirmation could not possibly be obtained." The Warburg matter was not considered at today's session of the committee which gave all its attention to consideration of the nomination of Thomas D. Jones of Chicago to be governor of the board. MAKE PUBLIC DISPLAY OF ANARCHIST ASHES NEW YORK. July 9. Alexander Berkman, the anarchist chief today ordered the urns containing the ashes of the victims of last Saturday's be mi) explosion brought to New York from the Fresh pond crematory to be placed on public exhibition.

The evidence against Mrs. Carman thus far gathered is purely circumstantial.

Will I'm Ilis fortune. Dr. Carman declared today that he would use all his fortune if necessary to establish the innocence of hi.wife.

I am confident that no indictment will be returned against me. Tho grand jury wil not be swayed by public clamor, as were the orhcial who ordered my arrest." Packing up his client's statement that she was willing to go b f.re the grand jury, Atty. (Ieorg- M. Iy'vy declared today that Mrs. "'arman would waive immunity and testify.
