COX MAY BOSS ; LEAGUE POLICY Interview With Wilson Is Awaited by Ppliticians, Probably This Week. : DIFFERENCES SLIGHT ???- * Democratic Candidate Favors Peaceful Participation by U. S., It Is Said. (By Vnlversal Frrtn.) Politicians here, and doubtless elsewhere, are wondering what will happen at the meeting which it is understood will be held at the White House between President Wilson and Gov. Cox. One report yesterday was that the conference probably would be held this week. It is believed here tb?t. as Gov. Cox has permitted his views on the dominant lsaues of the campaign to become known without waiting on the Democratic National Committee fot( cues or keynotes, he is to be the master mind in the forthcoming consultation, or he will have none of it. President Wilson, on the other hand, 'according to his spokesman, Secretary Tumulty, has s-tated that he is willing to put himself at tho command of the Democratic National Committee. It is from that body that the President expects his lin? of action to be suggested, and it is fairly well demonstrated that h? controls the committee. But Gov. Cox. according to th? freely expressed interviews attributed to him. is in a hurry to forestall any views of the committee 01 of anyone else on the league of nations or "wet" and "dry" issues, r. S. am Peaceful Participant. The most recent statements ol Gov. Cox on the league of nations published in Washington and New York newspapers, undoubtedly weri read by the President.

It is noted by politicians here thai the reservations favored by Gov. Cox ' would "nullify" the league covenant ' "specially its "heart," Article X, ac Tiling to the V, hite House interpretation of the term at the time it was used in reference to the Lodge resrvations. In the last analysis, if is pointed out. Gov. Cox's attitude thai . Congress must say when the United ires armv nnri navy shull he employed against another people sub.'antially is In accord with th? i.odpe reservations to Article X. It is for this obvious divergence ol 'Iew3 between the President anc ' >ov. Cox that no one here can predict safely what kind of a meeting 'v between Mr. Wilson and th( new party leader will be. The effor f a (ministration leaders is to glv< he impression that the President ii 'noking forward eagerly to the conference with Gov. Cox and that com !>lete harmony will mark the discus ion. It has been stated at the Whit< louse that the Cox reservations t< he league covenant likfly are to bi rccepted by the President. Mr. Wil on is reported to look upon them a :nerely "interpretative" and no nullifying " First Wilson "Surrender." Tf such be the ca?e. it will be th rst time in nearly eight years tha Woodrow Wilson shall have sur "endered his own views on grea nurnatlonal issues. The elements of a split betweei he White House and the part' tandard-bearer on the subject o t ow the league of nations should b< reated in the campaign are in sight t is .possible, of course, that th< democratic National Committee mar tdopt the Cox view, which complete y "reassures" Senator Reed, and ^President having committei Itiupif to the committee's views a^fcoast may be cleared and team '^rk resumed.

Senator Kenyon. as well as other members of the committee, feel that there is much yet for them to do on the pre-convention expenses investigation, but they wish to confine themselves to material matters and avoid as much as possible trails that will lead only into the blind alleys of rumor and political Insinuation. Matters almost sure to be further Investigated, however, are the Democratic situation in Missouri that brought about the repudiation of Senator Reed by the Democratic State convention, and the activities of employes of the Department of Justice in behalf of the candidacy of A. Mitchell Palmer, Attorney General. The completion of the Missouri phase of the Investigation is to be left in the hands of Senator Selden Spencer, of Missouri. and Atlee Pomerene. of Ohio, who expect to meet in St. Louis shortly. May Qali Howard Fl((. In following the leads developed in St. Louis as to the activities of persons on the payroll of the Department of Justice in behalf of Palmer, the committee is expeoted to call Howard Figg. special attorney general in charge of the high cost of living campaign, and learn from him how large an organization was maintained in the sixteen cities where branches of the high cost of living campaign were established, how many persons were employed, what they were paid, exactly what the duties they carried on were, and whether they were for the governmnt or the private interests of Mr. Palmer. Another phase of the matter upon which Interest Is likely to center Is that two of the delegates to the Democratic national convention from the District of Columbia were mer^who. during the pre-convention campaign, were ejnployed by the Palmer organization at a weekly salary of $125. Decision In August. The actual course* to be followed Is to be decided by the committee at a meeting which will be held about the tenth of August. It has been decided. however, that whatever that decision may be as to the future scope of the Inquiry, the pre-convention investigation will be finished and a report drawn up before the committee begins any new phase of the work. "The committee had expected to wind up Its work with the examination of three or four more witnesses," said Senator Kenyon. "but a number of new lines of investigation have opened up that the committee believes require further investigation. Senator Pomerene is expected to return from San Francisco by way of St. Louis, and with Senator Spencer, complete the taking of testimony there. After that, nothing will be done for a month, during which time the committee will determine whether to follow out the new lines of investigation or close the hearings on the subject, vlt: expenditures relative to the campaigns for the nomination of President. "Senator Edge is sailing for Europe in a few days and I have made my arrangements for a little vacation in the woods of Maine. We are all desirous of completing the work as soon as possible. "However, we desire to make the Investigation complete. I And upon my return, many letters from different States urging the committee to Investigate the pre-convention campaign in their States. These matters will be submitted to the full committee about August 10, and final action will then be determined." Former Mayor Fitzgerald, Of Boston, Operated On Boston, July 11. ?

Commissioner Anthony Camlnettl of the bureau said yesterday that reports coming from the Montreal i office were considered more authentic than the unofficial information that Bergdoll was bellevtd to be in Northern New Jfork. More credence is given to the report that Bergdoll is on the other side of the ; border. Department of Justice officials exhibited a tendency to believe thw latest Bergdoll "rumor" was as useful ss many which have already preceded, and which have been the cause of much wasted effort on the part of department operatives. Agents are at work on several other Bergdoll reports, but as yet none have been placed on the Philadelphia's Csnadian trail.

During the last two years of the war. Empress Eugenie ? her countrymen with characteriatic tact.' have never spoken or written about her as the "former Empress"?taxed every bit of her resources by visiting hospitals for the wounded allied soldiers which she had estab-| lished In one wing of her English; country home, cheering the victims of shell and shrapnel with her smile and confident optimism. Of evenings, by way of strange contrsst. she would visit the other wing of the mansion, a veritable i museum, where lay the remains of! Napoleon I, and-where, amid portraits of her immortal contempora-! rles. were stored innumerable souvenirs of the days of her imperial pomp and glory. There were the j court dresses she wore when she sat on the throne of France, and there was, too, the state carriage In which she rode on her wedding day. For many decades she lived in exile. mostly in England, to which she was deeply attached; her mother, a KirkpatricH, had been of Scotch extraction. Her presence in France was never desired by the bulk of her countrymen, chiefly because up t<^ quite recent years, she had li*ad in the avowed hope that the throne would be restored. But the Pranch have long since forgotten the "vain shadow empress." In the midst of the catastrophe of 1870 that poppled Napoleon's throne, the Austrian ambassador to France. Count Metternlch. with his Italian colleague. Count Nigra, rescued the beautiful empress from the beselged Tuilleries and entrusted her to the care of an American dentist. Dr. Thomas W. Evans, who escorted her to her English refuge. Though always glorying in her past and not infrequently displaying, in moments of a flamboyant mood, the airs and graces of her inwperlal days. Eugenie, thenceforward. lived rather modestly and shunned publicity. She still retained the affection of her servants, ranging in number from fifteen to twenty-five Withered and wrinkled, she I was a pathetic figure to look upon. ! but her spirit was keen and vivid to the end. In late years, her eyesight had been steadily falling until she was almost totally blind. 1 Queen Victoria, of Spain, Is Eugenie's godchild, and Judging from repeated utterances of the empress. will be the chief beneficiary of her will. Eugenie was Immensely rich, indeed, one of the wealthiest women in Europe. Her fortune is estimated at 150,000,000 francs (130.000,000), though when she married Napoleon III. she was comparatively poor. SHOTS FLY AS POLICE FIGHT BOSTON CROWDS Boston. July 11. ?

South Boston, where a policeman, while attempting to make an arrest, was sat upon by a crowd of fully 300 and was saved from a serious mauling by the timely arrival of a brother officer in civilian clothes, who drew his revolver and fired four shots. In the excitement, the prisoner escaped. Policeman John Wedder was on patrol duty when he (aw an intoxicated rain accompanied by two others. His order to take the man away was obeyed, but later while he wss in Dorchester street, the men came back and started an argument. He placed one man under arrest and. was taking him to the police box Mo call the patrol wagon when the man's companion jumped on his back. 0 " Quite White House To Guard Harding r?'/ ^ t.

This action by the Labor party la 1 exceedingly Important to the United State* and the British dominion because upon action by the British government on Tuesday depends, to ?n immeasurable decree, th* tutu re 1 of Anglo-Amsrioan relations In the 1 Par East. According to the prase nt i1 Anglo-Japanese alliance. either Oreat Britain or Japan must give notice by the ISth of denunciation of the treaty or It will continue In ' force automatically, year by year. The Labor party hopes by facing i the deSate In the commons on Moh- , day to prevent the government's renewal under any conditions. An editorial in this week's Spec- |1 tutor, after ccni-iderin* the opinion:] of America and the British dominion*. says: j "Our own ?!e* is that it Is easy to make out a esse either for or(i against renewal of the treaty. If We perceive disadvantage* tc the flrltlah Empire, we a'so recogrise very solid advantages in being able j to writs off the Far East as vlr. j tually safe from an Asiatic upheaval.

In the circumstances we want to come to a conclusion not on the mere verbal merits of the case as it may be stated for and against a renewal of the treaty, but in the light of the ; extraneous but overwhelmingly important consideration of what the efTect of the decision would be upon our relations with the United States. We need not have the least hesitation In expressing our feelings In that way because comfortable relations between America and Japan are just as important for Japan as the maintenance of friendship with America is important for us. 'American friendship must be the touchstone of our policy. We must : do nothing that would be considered . unfriendly or Inconsiderate to Amer- | ica because.

We trust that the government is considering these modifications if it is the intention to renew the treaty. "In the full lirnt of opinion from America, as we'.l as frosn the do- i minions, we would much rather ' abandon the Anglo-Japanese alliance a year hence than forfeit the prospect of a fruitful fellowship with America."
