Special nUnntch to The Tribune
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y.,
?July i!2.?Coming to Saratoga
?Springs from his summer home at
Lake George, Governor Nathan
L. Miller played eighteen holes of
srolf at the McGregor links to-day.
Because of their generosity in
granting their opponents a big
handicap Governor Miller and
Clarence B, Kilmer, chairman of
the greens committee, were de?
feated by former Senator Edgar
T. Brackett, of this city, and Ar?
thur Hays Suizberger, business
manager of "The New York

The Governor played a strong
game, scoring a birdie 3 at No. 11,

in two inches of a par at No. 18,
a most difficult hole.

Interested In Policies
Shifting to candidates and policies
Mr. Conners said:
"Mr. Hearst is not dictating about
the Senatorship. The convention will
attend to that matter. Hearst is in?
terested in great policies, rather than
details."
Mr. Conners said things are in such
fine shape for Hearst that he expected
to get away to the Northwest some time
next week. He added that Mr. Hearst
was planning to leave for California
at an early date.
When Mayor Hylan was asked yes?
terday if Hearst was a candidate he
said :
"I don't know. I took myself out of
the race. Hearst is more interested in
policies than candidates."
Asked about Mayor Lunn as a can?
didate for Governor, Mr.yor Hylan said
he could not say whether he was or
not.
"Lunn is a very able man with a
good record," said the Mayor.
"Hut he has a fight on in his own
town." it was suggested.
"When a man like Lunn proves him?
self fit for public office the interests
begin to attack him," said the Mayor.
"I wouldn't be surprised if we should
find that the corporations had started
the fight against Lunn to hurt him as
a candidate."
The friends of former Governor
Smith agree that if he is to block
Hearst and Conners he will have to do
something before August 22, the last
day for filing nominations for dele?
gates.
Bonus Is Regarded
As Killed Off for
Present Congress
Senators Are Assured That
President Will Veto Bill
as Now Drawn; Votes
Lacking to Override It
From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, July 22?Signs are
multiplying that the soldiers' bonus
bill is doomed at this session. Presi?
dent Harding has advised certain Sen
! ators that he will veto the McCumber
I bill as it stands, or any bill which
I does not provide for the method of
? raising money to meet the bonus. In- !
| asmuch as no such bill is in sight,
Senate leaders see no escape from a
veto.
The information that the President
definitely has made up his mind to
veto the bill has been conveyed from
the White House to the Senate through
several of the members of that body.
While the President has not declared
publicly that he will veto the Mc?
Cumber bill. Senate leaders feel sure
a veto awaits the measure if it passes.
Furthermore, a canvass of the Sen?
ate has been made to find out whether
a veto would be sustained. It is under?
stood that this canvass has been made
by opponents of the bonus. Thirty Sen?
ators have been found who will refuse
to vote to override a veto, and while
three more would be needed, it is gen?
erally believed that if the President
dees interpose a veto it will be
sustained. A number of Senators on
the Republican side, who are mildly
for the bonus, would hesitate to vote
to override a veto.
In view of the .attitude of the Presi?
dent and the doubt of being able to
overcome a veto, talk in Senate circles
to-day was that the bonus bill was
practically dead for this session. This
does not mean that it will not be taken
up later and discussed.
Senate Republican leaders have not
entirely abandoned their plan to talk
bonus over with the President and try
to a^ree with him on the form of a bill.
They still hope to induce him, if he
will not make such an agreement, to
recommend that the bill be put over
until next session, thus helping to
save certain political faces. With the
railroad and coal strike controversy
at its height, however, there is no open?
ing for the leaders to go over the
bonus question with the Executive.
Indications are there will be anptr.rr
flare-up of discussion over the bonus
bill in the Senate soon. A number of
the representatives of the veterans' or?
ganizations have visited the Capitol
this week and have indicated their un?
easiness over the delay in. Action on
the bill. They want the tariff laid
aside and the bonus bill brought for?
ward; Friends of the bonus are await?
ing a favorable opportunity to stir up
the issue on the floor of the Senate.

In Russell Divorce Suit
Legitimacy of Son and Succes?

From The Tribune's European Bureau
LONDON, July 22.?The divorce suit

Sky Cops Will Trail Offenders
AndArrest'Em When They Land
No Attempt Will Be Made to Swat Outlaws on the
Wing, Officials Explain, but Police
Planes Will Be Faster
The Aviation Division Reserve of the
New York Police Department?that's
the official, fermai name of the thing
to which New York's sky cops are at?
tached?has become real confidential.
The Aviation Reserve Division made it
clear last night just how the depart?
ment scout planes, flitting through
space above Broadway and Forty-sec
on?i Street, are to capture all offending
aviators.
It's all quite simple. In fact, it is' so
simple that it seems that it was hardly
nece33ary for an official announcement
to have had to come from the office of
Special Deputy Police ' Commissioner
Rodman Wanamaker. The answer to
the problem is this: The wary police
pilots, in speedy machines, will keep
after an airplane fugitive until lie is
all tired out and then, when he is
forced to land?the exact place of
landing may vary from time to time?
the relentless sky cops will swoop
down and grab him. Nothing could be
easier.
In the official language of the oi??
c'al announcement the Aviation Divi?
sion Reserve of the Police Department
explains its contemplated aviator
catching scheme in this fashion:
"For public information, this office
is very glad to answer the question
of how arrests will be made of pilots
flying. The answer to this is a very
simple one. Our* patrol is so situated
that when our scout planes give chase
to any lawless aviator they will be
speedy enough to keep up with him
until he is forced to land, when the
police plane will also land, and the
pilot put under arrest.
"Police planes are equipped with
machine guns, and all flying police of?
ficers are armed, but only in case of
extreme necessity will such force be
used."
In the departmental announcement
it i;; made cleat- that air rules are to
be rigidly enforce! and that those so
injudicious as to break them won't do
po a second time. In fact, after a
time it will become so that an nviator,
according to the announcement, will
no more think of breaking some traffic
regulation "than a Manhattan motorist
would.
The Aviation Reserve performed its
first active duty of the season yester?
day patrolling the city from three
points. No aviators were captured, be?
cause there wero no offenses com?
mitted.
On the Jersey shore, it was said, Cap?
tain Bridgeman was on the lookout for
airmen v.ho were not obeying the code
regarding planes flying at low alti?
tudes over the City of New York. At
Fort Hamilton Major Van De Water
was patrolling the harbor, on the look?
out for any hydro-airplanes which
might try to escape the police cordon
thrown over the city, to make arrests
of aviators flying low or "stunting,"
while an active patrol, consisting of
three Curtiss machines, which had been
put at the disposal of the Police De?
partment, in command of Major
C. Anderson Wri.'it, executive officer,
hovered over the city the entire day,
ready to give chase to violators of the
air traffic ordinance.
Ward Hearing to Go On,
Writ Refused by Court
Appellate Division Rules Facts
Do Not Justify Interference
With Proceedings
The hearing on the charge of con?
spiring to defeat the ends of justice
brought by District Attorney Weeks of
Westchester County against George S.
Ward and others connected with the
Ward murder case, will be continued
next week at White Plains. The ap?
plication by Ward's counsel for an
alternative writ of prohibition which,
if granted, would have stopped the
conspiracy proceeding, was denied in a
decision handed down yesterday by the
Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court.
The speedy decision on the applica?
tion was a surprise, since counsel had
been given two days in which to file
briefs. The immediate filing of argu?
ments on" both sides enabled the court
to hand down the. decision yesterday.
"The application for an alternative
writ of prohibition is denied in the
exercise of our discretion,'' the deci?
sion'orders, and continues: "The facts
presented are insufficient to justify
the issuance of such a writ. It should
be granted only in case of extreme
necessity and when no other remedy
can be had. Should these proceedings
here complained of lead to the peti?
tioner's arrest, the law affords ample
protection."
The application was argued by for?
mer Supreme Court Justice Woodward,
and opposed by John E. Mack, asso?
ciate counsel with Mr. Weeks.
Arrest Alleged Pickpocket
Has Been Held on Like Charges
.48 Times, Police Say
Harry Cohen, thirty-six years old,
cutter, of 52 Allen Street, was arrested
last night on a charge of having picked
the pocket of John La*tio, of 438 East
134th Street. He has been arrested
forty-eight times on .similar charges,
according to the police.
Latio was going into the subway at
Thirty-third Street and Seventh Ave?
nue when he felt a hand in his pocket,
before he could do more than turn
around the man had- run away and
taken $45 with him. Latio went to the
West Thirtieth Street police station
and told Detectives Calahan and Hooks.
On his way from the police station
to the subway he saw a man he rec?
ognized.
Back he ran to the police station
and got the two detectives to arrest
the man, who described himself as
Cohen. ?

Literacy Test
Faces All New
Voters in Fall
Fifty Extracts From State's
Constitution Form Basis
for Judging Applicant's
Qualifications in English
Selections Not Difficult
Aspirant Must Show He Can
Read and Write, However,
Before He Is Registered
New York State's literacy test for
new voters will be given ita initial
trial in New York City on October 9,
the first day of registration, it be?
came known yesterday when the Board
of Elections received from Secretary
of State Lyorts copies of the 100 ex- I
tracts which he has taken from the !
state's constitution and which will be
used on registration days this fall.
Under the provisions of the new!
law. inspectors on the registration !
boards are given full authority to re-I
quire all new voters to prove that
they can read and write English. This
class of voters includes those who are
naturalized and are voting for the firat
time, those who have entered New York
from other states, and those who are
! entitled to vote by reason of the fact
that they have reached their twenty
j first birthday.
School Head May Certify
The law also contains a provision
which will enable the new voter to pre?
sent to the inspectors a certificate of
literacy signed by the principal or head
of a public school in the place where
the voter applies-for registration, or
of any school in a city or town which
the State Department of Education re?
cognizes as meeting the requiroujstand
ards. This certificate will be to the
effect that the principal or head of the
school has examined the prospective
voter, or his educational credentials,
and found that he or she can read and
write. It will bear the. signature of the
applicant made in the presence of
the principal, who also must sign it.
At registration a comparison will be
made between the name appearing on
the certificate and that inscribed by
the voter to prevent irregularities.
In selecting the. excerpts from the
state constitution Mr. Lyons has taken
care to avoid sentences containing long
and difficult words. At the same time
he has endeavored to provide phrases
of about fifty words which will carry
useful information to the new voter.
In Massachusetts, where there has
been a literacy test in existence for a
considerable length of time, the selec?
tions taken from the state constitution i
are of five lines length and seem to
have been selected with the idea of
testing the voter's ability to read, with- !
out thought of conveying any definite
information concerning the constitu?
tion.
One of the extracts selected by Mr.
Lyons reads:
"All able bodied male citizens be?
tween the age3 of eighteen and fifty
five years, who are residents of the
state, shall constitute the militia, sub?
ject, however, to such exemptions as
are now or may be hereafter created
by the laws of the United States, or by ,
| the Legislature of this state."
Hard Words Are Avoided
The law allows the Secretary of State
some leeway when it comes to the num?
ber of words, as it says that "the ex?
tracts shall be of approximately fifty
words each." In making the selections
for the test Mr. Lyons has avoided as
I far as possible all sentences which con- .
I tain words not frequently used, and ,
which might prove a stumbling block |
! to the average intelligence.
Each Board of Elections ts required !
to print its own pasteboard slips, on !
each of which will appear one of the
extracta. Thase papers will be uniform
in size, and printed in ?nglish. The
new voter will be asked to draw out at ;
random one such slip from the box in
which the hundred are kept in such a .
manner as to conceal the slips from
view. He will read aloud intelligibly ;
the matter printed on the slip, where- ;
upon an inspector will select another j
slip from the box and ask him to write
legibly in English ten words of the j
matter. If the applicant does this in i
a passable manner he will be con- '
sidered to have passed the test.
The State Department of Education'
has decided to adopt a somewhat dif?
ferent method. Instead of calling upon
the applicant to read an extract from i
the constitution the department will
give what is known as a silent read- ,
ing test, which will determine the per- ;
son's qualification by requiring him to
ails wer ten questions from a selection [
of about one hundred words. The se
lection will center arourtd the follow?
ing topics: Americanization, citizen- '
* ship, civic duties and interests, Ameri- I
can history and government.
These two methods will give the new
voter ample opportunity to show that '
he possesses the educational qualifica?
tions entitling him to register and vote. :
The fact that a person might fail to j
survive a test of. literacy from the
State Department of Education will not
bar him from taking the test given by
inspectors on boards of registration,
and this fact will be made plain, to
those who fail in the department's test.

Alien Law Lifted
For Boy Racing
To Dying Father
Board on Liner France Cuts
Red Tape to Speed
15-Year-Old Student to
His Parent's Bedside
R. W. Boyden Aboard
Unofficial Representative on
Reparation Commission
on Way to Washington
Ruins of the Immigration Depart?
ment were suspended yesterday when
the liner France., of the French Line,
arrived, in order to admit fifteen-year
old Andrew D'Orn, who was racing to
the bedside of his dying father, Lours
D'Orn, a sugar planter of Martinique,
near death at Madison, N. J.
The boy, although a French subject
of an age requiring a guardian, was al?
lowed to enter the country by a spe?
cial board of inquiry, which convened
aboard the France at the order of
Byron Uhl, Assistant Commissioner of
Immigration at Ellis Island. He left
immediately for New Jersey in the
hope of seeing his father while he still
lived.
Mr. D'Orn was brought to this coun?
try on May 16, to be attended by
American specialists in the disease
from which he is suffering. ILe was
hurried from Martinique on the yacht
Caffiana, which belongs to Elisha
Walker, president of Blair & Co., his
nephew, and taken to the home of his
mother, Mrs. St. Ange D'Orn, in Mad?
ison.
Delayed on Lafayette
The planter's son was in France at
school, but when Mr. D'Orn's condition
improved after reaching here, it was
not until two weeks ago that the boy
was hastily summoned home upon his
father's taking a turn for the worse.
He booked pcssage on the Lafayette,
but that vessel was damaged in a storm
when a few hours out and was forced
to return, so Andrew had to wait a
week in Havre before getting passage
on the France.
Immigration inspectors, who boarded

need no passports to return through
the United States, and when he learned
this was not so in Havre it was too
close to sailing time for him to get
the necessary documents. Mr. Bourasse
was detained for an hour and three
quarters before being admitted, and
was then forced to pay the $5 fee he
would have had to pay for a vise in
France. I

Eskimo on Rampage Kills
Policeman and Six Others
Slays Hudson Bay Factor, Five
Native? and Sleeping Member
of Royal Mounted Force
EDMONTON. Alta., July 22.- Out of
the frozen north, a member of the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police has
just arrived with news of the murder
of seven men by an Eskimo who ran
amuck on Herschell Island, Hudson
Bay, four months ago.
His victims we-re Constable Bosk, of
the mounted fatrces; G. Binder, Hud?
son Bay factor, and five of bis tribes?
men.
The Eskimo, a young seal hunter
employed by Binder, killed his five
comrades as they lay sleeping one
night last March. The mounted police
trailed him, captured him and brought
him back to Herschell Island, wh^ro
ho was jailed to await trial for the
murders.
Constable Boak was * detailed to
guard the Eskimo. One night as the
officer slept, his prisoner seized his
rifle and killed him. When Binder
threatened to cut off escape, the Eski?
mo killed him also. Making his way
back to the tribe, the murderer told
his fellows he had killed seven men,
and declared he intended to "wipe out
the rest of the island." Twenty-fouj
hours later the mounted police recap*,
tured him.
The prisoner may be brought to Ed?
monton for trial, because of the high
feeling running among his tribesmen
at the Hudson Bay Post, said the po?
lice who brought in the news.
