POLITICAL LEADi
TAKEN BY G. O.P.
IN 1DDLE WEST
Lowden and Wood Boom
ers Hold Attention of
Prairie States.
MAY INVADE NEW YORK
Supporters of Illinois Gov
ernor Expect Real Issue
With Harding.
B? ? **1??T I nrrespnaadraal.
C*hleago. Feb. 15. ?I'olltlcal ma
neuvers In the Central West are
at present 76 per cent Republican.
The remaining 25 per cent belongs
lo the women's section of, tbe Dem
ocratic party, which apparently Is |
the only live fora-e In the rival or- I
Kanlxation. Attorney General A. j
Mitchell I'almcr created a mild stir
here while spending a few' hours in j
the city, but his practical disclaim
er of any design on the Demo
cratic nomination dampened the
enthusiasm of the faithful. Ills at
titude was taken to indicate that
Democratic aaplrants for White
House honors will remain quiescent
until President Wilson gives some
indication as to his own personal
relation with the future interests
of the party.
The preconvention campaign in
the prairie States is practically con
fined to the activities of the Low
den and Wood boomers. Managcra
of each claim everything and con
cede nothing. The result of the
Oklahoma State convention is con
sidered by many aa showing the
recession of the Wood movement,
but no one can get that Impres
sion In talking with Col. William
C. Proctor, who is conducting the
general's campaign. Col. Proctor
points to gains in every direction,
and he maintains that uninstrua-ted
delegations, as was the case in
Oklahoma, suit his committee as
well as if Instructions were down
in black and white for his candi
dates.
\\ <>..?? Faareea Issar
It is a study In political science
to compare the activities of the
two committees. As becomes a man
on horseback, the Wood manage
ment is forcine the Issue on every
hand. Just now It is contemplating
throwing down the gage of battle
to the governor of Illinois in his
own State. This will be decided
next week, and no one would be
surprised were Wood's name to go
on the primary ballot April 13.
?Jen. Wood will also Invade Sen
ator Harding's preserves, although
'he will not present a slate of dele
gates. He will simply permit the
Ohio voters to express their pref
erence, and if he should run a good
second he will naturally claim the
delegation in the convention should
Senator Harding fail of nomination.
These tactic? will be observed in
other States, although an out-and
out fight will be conducted in the
Slate? where no favorite sons fig
ure. Gossip among Republican
leaders is to the effect that the
Wood management will even in
vado New York, seeking to obtain
an instructed delegation.
In Michigan no holds will be
barred between the candidates, and
the same will hold true in Indiana.
At present Wood * partisans claim
that the general is leading Ne
braska, Kansas and Minnesota, not
to mention North Dakota. Colorado,
South Dakota and Oregon. There
ia no intention just now to pick a
fight with Hiram Johnson in Cali
fornia unless the progressive Sena
tor should invade some of Wood'?
own sacred precincts.
Fight Sky ot HlK.a.la.
On account of the peculiar situa
tion in Wisconsin all Republican
candidates have so far fought shy
of that 6tate. There is the usual
battle on in that bailiwick between
Senator i.a Follette'? followers and
the stalwarts, a legacy from the
early days of La Follettes career.
Senator Lenroot is trying to steer
clear of entangling alliances which
he may or may not be able to do,
aa he expects to be re-elected Sena
tor, while Governor Phillips would
not be adverse to becoming a Vice
Presidential candidate. Wood claims
to have a sure lead in Minnesota,
but there again the nonpartlsan
party ha? muddled the political
waters. That Townley might be
strong enough to dictate the Repub
lican State ticket would not be sur
prising. In which case there would
be a merry mlx-up in the Presiden
tial field.

FEDERAL SHIPS
TO STAY "DRY"
SAYS SHEPPARD
Senator Who "Saharaized'
DC. Takes Issue With
Payne.
SCORES SHIPPING HEAD
Declares Prohibition Law
Won't Hurt Maritime
Business.
Senator Morris fihrppard. of Texa?.
moving force in the Senate for Con
stitutional prohibition, said last night
that be takes Issue with John Bar
ton Payne, chairman of the Shipping
Board, on the latter'* contention that
the American government-operated
merchant marine cannot compete with
foreign lines because our ship? can
[not sell intoxicant?. ,
| "I think further trial of the gov
ernment ships will show that Judge
Payne's contention that dry Amer
ican ships cannot compete with for
eign linea equipped with bars, will
be found incorrect.
**I believe Americans will prefer to*'
travel on the ships operated by the
board, where they will not encoutner
the nuisance? produced by the sale
of intoxicant?, and will not have to
take passage with drunkards. The
Shipping Board should go ahead and
operate ships without bars."
? a la lead Act Aided 1 Irrisi?..
Chairman Payne recently an
nounced that he believed it neces
sary to dispose of the great fleet
of ships now operated, and that
one of the prime factors In In
fluencing this decision of the Ship
ping Board was the fact that un
der the constitutional prohibition
amendment it would be impossible
tc sell liquor on government ships.
He further stated that when
these ships were sold, and had
passed permanently into private
control it would be within the dis
cretion of the owners whether they
would be allowed to carry bars.
In this connection It is known that
several ships, one of them the
"Manchuria." formerly operated by
the board, have made trips out of
American jaorts with supplies of In?
toxicants.
It is noi unlikely that Congress,
convinced that an inequality exists
in this respect, may take action tu
prevent ships of foreign registry
entering American ports ? un
liquor on board.
It is considered probable that dry
members of Congress shortly will
niaive for an amendment to the Vol
uti ad prohibition enforcement act.
which would make it unlawful for
f?.ra lun ships to enter our port? with
intoxicants on board.
An attempt was recently made by
Interrai revenue agent? to bring Hal*
i-i-ue to the fore for a decision, when
government officers went on board
an Italian liner arriving in New York
and seised the stocks of liquor car
ried. A complaint was filed by offi
cers of the vessel with the Italian
consul, who look the matter up with
I Treasury oflielals here.
It wa.? claimed by officers of the
steamer that the wine on board wad
in the nature of a "ration" for th??
Italian seamen, who use wine at their
mess. Apparently, this claim was al
lowed to stand, because the Internal
Revenue Bureau subsequently ruled
that the wine ?ailed by revenue
agents should be returned to the cus
tody of the Italian liner's officers.
The ruling stipulated, however, that
ships could not soil any intoxicants
to Americans when they arrive in our
port?, and that the intoxicants on
board must only be used for the
ctew, as part of their daily rationing
system. m

?Berlin, Feb. 15. ? What la the

ing and now named In the French

That is the Interesting question
raised by Admiral Von Reuter,
called by the Germane "the hero
tot Scapa Flow," in an Interview to
day. The admiral makes an appeal
to America to interest itself In oce
of Germany's prisoners, .Lieut.

"Ruecker and one of his mea
were picked up by an American
de.troyer on May 12. 1?18. They
wer? the only ?urvlvors whan tf-e

Irish Sea. Ruecker was ?plendldly
treated on board the American Ide
?troyar, whicb delivered him to the
British in accordane? wltb the
agreement In effect between Amer
ica and Great Britain at the time.
'Ruecker. who was a nerv-cu?

of four officers and fourteen men
still held by the British. His sur
render is now demanded by the
French on some charge of attack
ing a military transport."
Hold? l . ?. Rrapaan.lblr.
The admiral argues that Ruecker !
is still an American prisoner, hav
ing been turned over to the Brit- '
ish only for safekeeping, and that '
as America Is not participating in
the demand for tbe extradition of?
German nationals, he is virtually,
under American protection, al- '
though in British hands legally; !
therefore he hold? that the pris?!
oner should not be delivered to the
French by the British, as he is a
prisoner of war, not a criminal.
Von Reuter wonder? what Amer- ?
Ica will do about this case.
Discussing the extradition of
German national?, the ,*dmir*l as?
? serted that JUoyd Oeorge person-1

Philadelphia, Feb. 15?President Wilson'? mentality is

the eminent nerve specialist and alienist, who (or six
months has been treating the President, in controvertng a
report in connection with Mr. Wilson's demand for Sf-cre
tary of State Lansing's resignation that the President was
in a highly nervous state.
Dr. Dercum was reluctant to talk at all about hi*
patient's condition.
"Ask Dr. Crayson," said he. "He is the man to talk
about the President."
But when urged to say something definite regarding
the Presidents condition, he added:
"You force me to say that the Presidents mentality
is today keen.
"Should J follow my inclination and habit of not dis
cussing Mr. Wilsons condition, it would immediately be
concluded that his condition was nat satisfactory. That is
just the impression I do not wish to create. That is all
I have to say in the matter."
