(By Associated Presa.)
TOLEDO, Ohio, Feb. 12.—United States
secret service operatives have begun
working here and in Detroit in an effort
to locate the alleged peddlers to drugs
to this city and other Ohio towns.
The source of supply Is alleged to be
to Detroit. "Runners" between there
and this city it is alleged, have been
bringing to cocatoe and other drugs and
supplying druggists to this and other
Ohio towns.
With the coming of the United States
secret service men to obtain evidence
in the aUeged illegal Interstate traffic

that man looked frozen to his ulster.
It was apparent that he needed the kind
of warmth that stays, the warmth that

body. We could have told him from per
sonal knowledge that Hpod's Sarsaparil

at the same time, and its benefits are
lasting. There may be a suggestion in

Dr, Wu Ting Fang Is Busy
Drawing Up the Magna
Charta
/
(By Aasociatad Fraas.)
SHANGHAI Feb. 9 Tang Shao Ti,
representative of Premier Yuan Shi
Kai. today declared he was confident
the abdication of the throne would be
an accomplished fact before February
18.
There appears to be less confidence
now than there hitherto has been
shown, that Yuan Shi Kai will be se
lected for the presidency of ‘he repub
lic. On the other hand, the name of
General Li Yuen Heng, the present vice
president, is mentioned, and it is pos
sible that he may eventually be se
lected.
The draft of the proposed Magna
Charta of the new Chinese republic
has been completed by Dr, Wu Ting
Fang, the minister of justice to the
Republican cabinet, and now awaits
the approval of the senate at Nanking.
The proclamation provides for a presi
dential term of four years, but the
senate may make the first term only
four years. It is thought that a com
promise may be reached on the ques
tion of the future capital of China.
President Sun Yat Sen, however, as
serts positively that Nanking will be
selected, although he admits that an
agreement may be made to keep Peking
provisionally as the nominal capital.
Desultry outpost fighting continues
in many places, but the reports as to
the casualties are very much exagger
ated on both sides. Tang Shao Y1 to
day declared positively that there
would be no more fighting.
KAIPING BOMBARDED.
The city of Kalping, province of Chi
Li, was subjected to a severe bombard
ment today by the revolutionary
troops. According to the latest reports
the town is In flames. The attacking
force of Republican troops brought 12
heavy field guns into action and for
several hours fiercely shelled both the
city and the fortress.
Twenty-three officers belonging to
the city garrison were executed on
suspicion of collusion with the revolu
tionary commander.

MONEY TRUST ACTION
NOT A REAL SHOW-DOWN
BY RALFK SMITH.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.—For several
months there has been quiet talk about
Investigating the office of the comptrol
ler of the currency, and also taking a
peep into the alleged Influence of certain
big banks in New York at the treasury
department.
While leader Oscar Underwood and
his friends have sought to make politi
cal capital over the action of the Dem
ocratic caucus In turning down Bryan’s
demand for an investigation of the
"Money trust” the fact remains that
Underwood’s support in the caucus came
not from Democrats, who favor hie nom
ination by the Democratic party .
The attitude of the Democrats of the
rules committee proves this fact beyond
question.
Representative Henry, of Texas, who
led the fight for the Investigation, is
chairman of this committee. His ef
forts to report the "Money trust" res
olution were checked by four Democrats,
not one of whom thinks Underwood
available for the Democratic nomination.
Representative Hardwick, of Georgia,
led the fight against Henry in the
rules comtoittee, and Hardwick is out
spoken in his advocacy of Woodrow
Wilson's nomination. Representative
Garrett, of Tennessee, another member
of the rules commltteet who opposed
Henry, is for Woodrow Wilson. Repre
sentative Pou, of North Carolina, still
another member of this committee
against the investigation, is for Wilson
and Representative Denver of Ohio is a
Harmon Democrat.
Presidential pollltlcs did not enter into
the matter at all, and the efforts of the
friends of leader Underwood and Speak
er Clark to make capital out of the cau
cus action is silly.

MORSE IS STILL RICH;
MM NEVER WORK KOHN
Will Not Re-Enter Wall Street
According to Statement
of Son
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
NEW YORK. N. Y„ Feb. 9.—Not a
word was forthcoming from the ex
banker’s apartments at 127 West 58th
street. Morse, free from prison, has
suddenly surrounded himself with all
the secrecy that was custumrry in his
financial dealings in Wall street five
years ago.
“All my father wants is quiet and
peace. He has no bitterness against
any one in the world.
"Reports that he is planning to take
revenge on people who are said to be
his enemies are absolutely untrue. There
Is no justification for them.”
This was the emphatic statement giv
en out by Harry Morse, son of the for
mer financier, when he left the Milano
apartments today to confront a throng
of reporters, Idlers and curiosity seek
ers. Ths young man showed a great de
sire to hurry away from interviewers,
but he was courteous to all of them.
“Isn't there any way I can oonvinee
you that there Is no possibility of any
new developments in my father's
plans?” ho asked.
"Ho Ik a sick man and is looking for
ward with pleasant expectation to his
trip to Germany.
"There isn’t the slightest chance of
his engaging in any financial operations
while here, for the simple reason that
he Is not in physical condition to nndor
take them.”
“How did your father spend the night?”
he was asked.
"He was greatly exhausted by his jour
ney, and is very tired this morning. He
slept until after 10 o’clock and hid a
light breakfast.”
"Do you think that the opinions ex
pressed in morning papers as to his
strength are wrong?"
"Casual observers ftiil to take Into
consideration the fact that my father
has a great deal of pride. He does not
like to show his weakened physical con
dition before the public, and in coming
into the city ho did his best id appear as
well as possible. No One likes to be an
object of pity.”
The, photographers asked whether
Morse'would go down town today.
“I do not think that he will leave the
house today,” said his son. “And he
may not leave It for two or three
days.”
He then showed a number of cards
sent z up by reporters, who had sought
interviews with Morsu.
"It is useless for you gentlemen to
call,” he said. "Miss Ethel Loyd Pat
terson is the only newspaper representa
tive whom my father has seen, and he
said everything he had to say to her. He
has nothing further to add.”
Early iq the day a handsomely dressed
woman of middle age entered the Mi
lano and sent up her card. It was return
ed with the message that Mrs. Morse was
not at home. The caller was evidently
much put out by her failure to get an
admittance.
“I have known the Morse family for
years,” she said, “and I called to offer
my assistance to Mrs. Morse."
Reporters asked for her name, but she
then became very much alarmed and,
taking her card back from the bell boy,
hurried away. \
Several other callers met with a similar
reception, and it was evident the family
intended to seclude themselves while in
New York.
Dr. Fowler later said that Mr. Morse
had spent a fairly comfortable night,
but was greatly fatigued. He added that
building operations being conducted next
to the apartment house were not condu
cive to the quiet he needed. The Morse
apartment is on the third floor and on
the west side of the hotel, which ad
joins a lot where excavating is going on.
Gosslpers were busy in the financial
district speculating and talking about
the effect of the return of Morse to New
York. They could not suppress a feel
ing that some kind of legal action which
would uncover much heretofore secret in
the Influence behind the Morse prosecu
tion, would develop.
“If the bank case against Morse should
ever be impartially reviewed a public
sentiment might arise that would be
politically dangerous,” one very close
friend of the former banker said today.
Harry Morse, son of the former finan
cier who got back yesterday from the
Federal prison at Atlanta, stated in the
most emphatic terms today that his
father hadno plans to reengage In Wall
street operations.
One of his very closest friends, n
mgn who knew all the details of his
toperations when the National Bank of
North America and the ice trust flour
ished, said that he knew "Morse to be
comfortably fixed.” Asked how mud
money the former financier had, he
would not or could not state.

MEN WERE SACRIFICED
AS SHIELD FOR WILSON
Arthur Morgan Says That's
Why Elliott and Morehouse
Lost Out
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, D. C.. Feb. IX-The
Florida Everglades investigation order
ed by the house committee on expendi
tures in the department of agriculture,
got under way today. Solicitor George
P. McCabe recited the department's
version of the dismissal of C. G. Elliott,
chief drainage engineer, and A. D. More
house, his assistant, declaring Secre
tary Wilson’s action was due entirely to
financial irregularities charged against
the men to transference of public funds
and had nothing to do with the Ever
glades reports which it is charged were
suppressed.
Representative CTark, of Florida,
whose charges against Secretary Wil
son to which the latter said he could
not recall the persons who recommend
ed to him the suppression of a circular
letter on the Everglades prepared by
Elliott.
Mr. Clark also made publlo a letter
from Arthur E. Morgan, of Memphis,
Tenn., president of the Morgan Engi
neering company, formerly supervising
engineer of United States drainage in
vestigations and now a special drainage
engineer to the department of agricul
ture, charging that the dismissals of
Elliott and Morehouse was directly due
to the Everglades controversy and that
they were being "saorificed to shield
Secretary Wilson.”
"It has been a matter of common
knowledge among the officials of the
United States drainage investigations
for more than a year,” wrote Mr. Mor
gan, “that the suppression of the Flor
ida Everglades report, which was pre
pared by Mr. Elliott had been an em
barrassment to the higher officials of the
department, whereas, a different report,
prepared by Mr. Elliott, stating the facts
of the situation and not so favorable to
the Everglades land project, had been
suppressed by Secretary Wilson.
"It has also been general y understood
that the situation would come before the
public in time and that some one must
be thoroughly discredited.
"I would not presume to write in this
manner concerning the head of the de
partment in which I am an official, did
it not seem ro unjust to dismiss Mr.
Elliott, presumably on other charges,
when the real cause of his dismissal is
to cover the embarrassment of his su
periors."
PROBE OF BRANDT CASE
MAY UNVEIL MYSTERY
(By Associated Press.)
NEW YORK, Feb. IX-Determined to
get to the bottom of the case of Foulke
E. Brandt, former valet of Mortimer L.
Schiff, who alleges he pleaded guilty to
charges of which he was not guilty, and
was sentenced to a 30-year term in
prison. Federal District Attorney Whit
man was busily engaged today and left
for Washington late this afternoon for
further work on the case.
The district attorney refused to dis
cuss his plans, but it is learned he pro
posed to consult in Washington with
United States Senator Knute Nelson,
of Minnesota. Senator Nelson is said
to have received 10 tetters from Brandt
since he began his long sentence five
years ago and he has taken interest to
the case because both he and Brandt
are of Swedish parentage. The district
attorney is expected to get the use of
these letters in connection with "John
Doe” proceedings before the grand jury
to determine whether there has been
any conspiracy or other unlawful action
in connection with the Brandt case.
Earlier in the day the district attor
ney had Carl Fischer-Hansen, who was
attorney for Brandt at the time he
pleaded guilty, and Police Lieut Joseph
B. Woolridge, the man who furnished
evidence against Erandt, both with him
in his office for a long time.
