Wisconsin, who, as head of the people's legisla tive service, called the conference, presided over today's session.

Harding's Entry Into r'l buster T rn. 1 x AA.oV 'L: Is Timed to Announcement of Secretary Hoover That President Will Run for Second Term Regarded as Proceed ing From Chief Executive Himself to Start Re action Against Reverses in Last Election, fly (.1,0 KG K V. A I Til I Kit. tt aahliigtuo lorrmiouilmt The rnh Be. Washington, Dec. 2. (Special Tele gram.) President Harding's hat Is In the presidential ring, according to the interpretation placed here today upon the Interview given st Palo Alto, Cal., by Herbert Hoover, secretary of com merce. Kepubllcan leaders who have had their llghlnlng rods In position had their vision distorted when they saw the Harding sombrero go hurtling Into the arena. When Mr. Hoover said the repuh licun presidential candidate in 1924 "obviously will be Warren O. Hard ing," It Is assumed tho commerce sec retary spoke with the approval and knowledge of the president. Cabinet officers do not make statements like this casually. The announcement Is staged in California, whero Hiram Johnson, according to last reports, still has a considerable following and Is timed to meet attacks on the ad ministration growing out of the re verses in the last election. They come, too, when the president Is flirt ing with the farm bloc and when Senator La Follette Is running up the liberal banner at Washington where ho is endeavoring to make the com bination between the agrarian and or ganized labor groups hold together as a national proposition. Hoover Supplies Hint. Up to this timo, the president has not lisped concerning his Intentions in 3 92-, nor have his closa advisers let fall a hint as to his plans. Hut with 20 months of the administration gone into history, and with new sit uations developing daily, the presi dent's close friends have believed it time some Intimation be given tho Counterfeiter Gang Rounded Up in New York City Bogus Bank of England Notes Calling for 100,000 Pounds Sterling Found in Pos session of Prisoner. New York, Pec. I. Secret service agents today arrested John PopovJch of Los Angeles, who, they said, car ried a bag containing counterfeit English bank notes calling for 100, OOd. Ho was lield for arraignment Monday. Arrested In I.os Angeles after banks had exchanged 6,000 of counterfeit notes, Popovich was released because of lack of evidence. Later when the counterfeiting plant was found an order for Popovlch's rearrest was issued. Gang Broken I p. Washington. Dec. 2. Officials of the United States secret service de clared they had succeeded in round ing up another important gang of counterfeiters in the arrest in New York of John Popovich of Los Angeles. Tho arrest is the third in the case and tho three men In custody are said by secret service agents to have been involved in the production of counterfeit bank notes of Kngland. The other men arrested in connection with the case are Oscar A. Simon of Ixis Angeles and Ivan davadonovlc. Cliiet Muran of the secret service declared that when Popovich was ar rested, secret service agents found in his possession and in his hotel room, Hunk of England notes totaling more Hum 430.noi.i. They had previously recovered In Los Angeles snd Han Francisco Kngllsh notes equivalent to almot the tame amount. The money found in New York Included 800 130 n()tes and 53i 1"0 notes Outfit pl ureal. .. . ... .i.tnreJ lur the aeit servl to havaj carried 1.100 coutUeifrll ii''t-s when h was r n.ltd reietiti in Ia Angeles whir. ihIi.IuU bei utulersloo.1. be bad been cmneeted with bnttk.

M 011 Vi tit UV AJ Meet AtfeSks public relative to what Wuiren !. Harding hits In mind. Mr. Hcover has supplied the necessary hint. It Is broad enough so that thusu who want to run may rend. Mr. Hoover's announcement is taken to indicate tho appeal which the president expects to make to the public for a second term. "Moreover, by that time (102-1)," Mr. Hoover says, "the public will be highly appreciative of the sanity end progressive character of the policies that will have brought this country through the reconstruction period." Had Troubled Moments. The president. It Is understood, has hud many troubled moments during tiio gruelling period of his first two years of office. It Is no wonder ho has thought t times it would be well to let someone else carry the ball for the next half. But apparently, he has made, up his mind to go through without an other contest and tnke whatever the country has to give him. His close friends point out that it is natural there should bo a reaction against the administration now, as tho president has been acting in the eupaclty of a surgeon, performing it painful but necessary operation. No one, they say, feels an abiding affection for tho man wielding the knife, but once tho operation is over and the patient re covers, gratitude supplants the petu lance of the moment. At any rate, notice has been served on candidates ror tne presiuentiai Job, that Warren G. Harding does not propose to vacate the White House and if any ono wants to take pos session of the residence in 1924, they will havo to evict him.

Mlf o on Dyer Bill Successful i ... Kepublicaii senator in (..uu cus Vote to Abandon Anti Lynching Measure Afler Four-Day Fight. Legislation Now Dead Washington, Pec. 2, (Uy A. P.) Success crowned the filibuster of sen ato democrats against the Iyer antl lynching bill today when republican senators In party caucus voted to abandon the tnensuro complete?. The republican majority acted after the democrats, by what Is generally conceded to have been one of the most efficiently conduct filibusters In tho history of the senate, had prevented tho transaction , of any business for the fourth consecutive legislative day. Tho ' obstructionist tactics of the democrats, moreover, were threaten ing more than a thousand presiden tial nominations which, if uncon firmed by, Monday noon, when the special session ends, must be aguin submitted. Action Left to ('uncus, Tho republican caucus was preceded by a conference attended by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, the repub lican leader; Curtis of Kunsas, the re publican whip, and Senator Short ridge of California, In churge of the Dyer bill. Senator Shortrldge, who had been unmovable throughout the fili buster, was understood to havo agreed at this conference to allow the fate of the bill to bn decided by a majority caucus. The ciuestion of abandoning the measure, which was passed by the house last season, was debated It) tha caucus for two hours, it is undr stood, a small minority holding out for continuation of the fight. . The final decision, however, was to direct Senator Lodgo to inform the demo cratic leaders that the bill would be pushed no further either at tho spe cial session or at the regular session convening Monday. This means the death off the legislation, which the democrats havo attacked as "a force bill" and as unconstitutional. To Con (inn Nominations. The. decision, republican leaders said After tho caucus, will permit confirmation of a large number of the pending nominations at a session of the senate convening at 10 Monday, two hours In advance of tho meeting of congress in regular session, Among those nominations is that of Pierce Rutler of Minnesota, to be associate Justice of the supreme court. Majority and minority leaders alike were agreed tonight that the filibuster thus brought to an end by the re publican caucus decision will take a place as one of the most notable In senate history. It has differed from previous filibusters in that it Involved no long speeches, democrats having utilized the usual routine action of approving the Journal. Take Advantage of Rules. Under senate rules no business can be transacted until the Journal or minutes of tho previous session have been approved and the democrats took advantage of this rule, refusing approval of amendments, demanding quorum calls and requesting the ayes and nays on every question brought up. Leaders on both sides were agreed that the filibuster had the additional effect of directing attention to senate rules' under which a minority by well directed moves may block any legis lation and which Senator Cummins, Iowa, the president pro tempore, Fri day described as belonging to "an other civilization."
