celvod by the president that C. Ewald

ment after the declinutlon of Mr. (Jurlier,
will accept, although his formal acceptance
has not yet been received. Senator Per
kins of California aaid at the White House
today that no doubt was entertatned of
Mr. Grunsky's acceptance. It Is very
probable that the seventh member of the

Mississippi river commission. It has not
been determined definitely what the com
pensatlon of the members of the commis
ston will be, but It Is known that the

paid for their services. The probability
seems now to be that the president will
send the appointments of the members of
the commission to the senate tomorrow.

WAR OF WORDS IN COURT
Attorneys in Postal Fraud Trial at Wash
ington Show Bad Feeling.
SAY THAT ALLEGATIONS ARE ADMITTED
Attorney Conrad Brings on Talk by
Avertns; that Defendants Have
Admitted Allegations la
the Indictment. '
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25. Mr. Conrad,
special counsel for fhe government In the
postal trial, continued! his argument for the
prosecution today. He dwelt at length upon
the question of what constitutes a reason
able doubt and instanced cases where a
single Juror had hung the Jury through a
misconception of the meaning ot 4 reason
able doubt, when he was Interrupted by
Mr. Kumler, who charged that the state
ments wero an Imputation on the Jury In
this case. A sharp colloquy betweeu Mr.
Conrad and Mr. Kumler followed.
Reouiulng his remarks Mr. Conrad con-
ended that the counsel for the defense had
admitted all the allegations of the Indict
ments.
This brought Churles A. Douglass to his
feet, who denied that this wa. so. Alter
some wrangling, Justloe Prltchard told the
Jury that they understood how the matter
was and directed Mr. Conrad to proceed.
Mr. Conrad referred to the examination of
the Croft fastener and said the examination
was not borne out by the circumstances.
When Mr. Conrad concluded this after
noon Justice Prltchard announced that he
would deliver his charge to th Jury to
morrow morning.
