most formidable armada of warships
ever assembled in an area of like si.e,

submarines and aircraft carriers.
British oliicials here feel confident
that if the allied laud forces are not
sufficient to check an attack on the
Dardanelles by th; Turkish national
ists, the combined fleet, together with
French and Italian war vessels, will
be more than adequate.
There is an increasing feeling of
security among the population of
Constantinople as a result of Great
Britain's energetic measures. The
highest military authorities declare
the Turks will not commit the folly
of opposing such overwhelming
forces.

Chicago, Sept, JR Attorneys for
the striking rail craft leaders today
renewed their motion for dismissal of
Attorney enrral Daughertv's in

erton said he wat ready to hear the
arugmrnr.
Donald R. Richberg, attorney for
R. M. Jewell and John Siott, presi
dent and secretary-treasurer retec
lively of the shoprrafts, declared in
bis opening statement that many of
the aOidavits of violence produced
last week by the government are:
"Hearsay, rumor, speculation and
even perjury."
Without proof the affidavits charge
to the strikers a-ts of shortage, be
said, the acts may as well be charged
to defective equipment, "The gov
ernment has not produced a scintilla
to cover the defendants with any of
the acts charged," Mr. Kichbtrg
said. He declared the U"v'rl"llcnt
was laboring under a "ruudamental
conception" of the purposes of the
shopcrafts and read from the consti
tution of the railway employes de
partment, American Federation of

"absurdity" of trving to charge its

Vets Make Final Plea
Washington, Sept. Itf.-iliy A. P.)
Veto of the soldiers' bonus bill by
President Harding was expected gen
erally by congressional leaders and
Hilniiui.siration officers. Some of Mr.
Harding's advisers said bis message
practically had been completed and
they looked for him to send it to the
house Tuesday.
Leaders in congress were making
plans with a veto in mind. In the
house it was the intention to defrr
action mild Wednesday so as to
keep a working quorum on hand for
disposition Tuesday of important
conference reports on the measures.
A senate vote might be deferred
until Thursday, depending largely
upon the hour of the, bouse vole.
Meantime, however, both opponents
and proponents were marshalling
their forces with indications that the
roll call would show the largest at
tendance of senators in months.
Veterans Make Final Pleat,
Headed by Hanford MacXider, na
tional commander of the American
Legion, a delegation representing
various veterans' organizations
called at the White House to make
a final request of the president that
he sign the bonus mea'iirc. Some
member of the delegation said the
president bad not stated "whether
he owuld approve the measure," while,
others said they gathered the impres
sion that tlie executive would veto
the bill now before him.
Commander MacNider told Mr.
Harding that "we have no threats
to make politically." but that the
organizations hoped "the will of the
American people as expressed by the
action of congres, will be carried out.''
Some members of the delegation
quoted the president as saying that
ht would glad to see a bonus meas
ure enacted into law if lie were con
vinced that it would not ntail a
greater cost to the government tha:i
$10,000,000,000, and would take care
of the able-bodied veterans for all
time. They said, he added, however,
his belief that there would be an
ultimate outlay of $50,000.0000.
Line Up Forces.
Apparently convinced that the
house would vote by a large ma
jority o overrule a veto, senate foes
of the bonus redoubled their efforts
to obtain a safe margin there. They
claimed .54 senators as certain, with
the probability that by the time a
vote came this number would be
increased to ot or four more than the
one-third necessary to sustain a veto;
Present expectations are that 15
senators favorable to overriding a
veto will be absent with only four
or possibly five of the opponents.
Graft Is Charged
in U. S. Bank Build:
ma
Washington, Sept. 18. Attacking
former Governor Harding of the
federal reserve board and "Wall
street" again in the senate, Senator
Heflin, democrat, Alabama, ex
pressed belief that there was mil
lions of graft in the new buildings
erected by four of the federal re
serve banks, lie also charged that
a secre tranvass of the senators was
being made to ascertain whether
Mr. Harding could be confirmed if
reappointed to the reserve board.
The Alabama senator declared
former Governor Harding, while
head of the federal banking system
"permitted four bank officials to set
aside $-W,000,INMI for four bank
buildings," and added that S.'O.Oml,.
000 of this amount, if not spent for
new buildings would have gone into
the treasury.

Xew Brunswick, N. J.. Sept. 18
The question of where the Rev. l.d
ward H. Hall, rector of the fash
ionable Church 6f St. John the Evan
gelist, and his choir leader, Mrs.
James Mills, were slain, shared al
most equally in interest with that of
by w hom they were slain, as authori
ties of the county began today their
third day's inquiry into the myste
rious double murder.
Although they displayed unusual
reticence, it was apparent that detec
tives were not convinced that the
rector and Mrs. Mills met death be
neath the apple tree in a field of
waving golden red where the bodies
were laid out tenderly as if for burial.
Figures in Inquiry.
Mills the widower, Mrs. Hall the
widow and her brother, Willie, an
eccentric, were the figures about
which the investigation revolved. All
three were expected to be questioned
again today Mrs. Hall lor further
details of her nocturnal wanderings

ders are believed to have been com
mitted. Mills t'or the story of his
own wanderings at the ame hour;

Final Action on
Tariff BillToday
Vole on Adoption of Confer
ence St-l for 1 o'clock
l'aoral)le Outcome
lt Predicted.
Washington, Sept. 18. (By A, Tt)
Final legislative action on the ad
ministration tariff bill at 4 Tuesday
wasagrecd upon late "today by the
senate. At that hour the vote will
be upon adoption of the conference
report with no doubt of favorable
action.
After the senate vote the measure
will be made ready for President
Harding and will become a law on
the day following bis approval of it.
In the four hours' debate that is
to precede the final vo,et, democrat
ic opponents plan to continue their
final fight on the bill, which was
opened today by Senator Simmons
of North Carolina, minority leader in
the. tariff fight. Speaking for more
than three hours, he assailed the
bill as one that would increase liv
ing costs by billions of dollars a
vear and would result in the forma
tion oi hundreds and thousands of
trusts and combinations in restraint
of trade.
The attack on the measure was not
confined to the democratic side, Sen
ator Cameron, republican. New Mex
ico, denouncing the action of the sen
ate proposal to impose a tariff of 7
cents a pound oii long staple cot
ton, lie indicated that he would
vote against the conference report.
Kfforts of the democrats to get
the bill back into conference to limit
the authority of the president in the
matter of proclaiming Aintriean val
uation failed, Senator Cummins, re
publican, Iowa, president pro-tem-pore,
overruling a point of order that
the conference had exceeded their au
thority in broadening the powers of
the president so as to permit of
American valuation on other than
coal taf products.
While the senate was arguing the
tariff bill the house w.ts and means
committee began consideration of a
resolution for continuation for 'X) d.i s
of the daye enibaigo licensing sys
tem act. which would be repealed by
the tariff bill, biiial decision went
over until iuesil.iv.

I Pacific time i as follows:
I ' "Thorough inspection of second
1 bulkhead on 4.350 cross cut reveals
I poor construction and bad air behind
, as well as in front. Can see through
it. hut cannot see any bodies or nu n.
Are bringing in compressed air line's.
"As soon as aid is (J. K. will open
bulkhead and explore, Kxpert tele
phone connection soon at 4.200 sta
tion, o can communicate with you
direct. (Signed)

Omaha lira isurd M lr.
Jackson, Sept. 18. The rescuers
are but a few feet from the 47
miners trapped in the Argonaut mine
11 days ago.
The men are believed to he behind .
a bulkhead on the 4,350-foot level.
The crews found a bulkhead in
front of it.
breaking it open they found the I
nir bad they are waiting to clear
the air before entering the second
bulkhead.
Whether the men arc dead or alive
ran not yet be determined but they
may be alive.
The fir.tt official bulletin giving
hope of rescue follows:
have been to the 4. 201) station ami
found the shaft all right at that
point. They went to the top of of
the raise from the 4,350 level and
found no indications of men having
climbed up recently. They have
not explored the crosscut on the
4,2K0.
To Explore Crosscut.
''They are going to do that nw
and are going to start building the
bulkhead in the main Argonaut
shaft above the 4,200 level.
"They requested all the flash
lights that could be spared and ex
tra balteries for the flashlights al
ready down there. They stated
they would need group C for sev
eral hours, probably not until eve
ning." The significance of this bulletin
was that it meant the entombed
men might be alive, apparently hav
ing escaped the perils of fire on the
lower levrls of the Argonaut. Tt
makes plain that the tire has not
burned down to the 4.200-foot level.
There was intense drama in the
foreman's shack when the telephone
jingled three times. It was 1:40 this
afternoon. H. W. Wolflin, of the
company Industrial Accident associa
tion grabbed the receiver, held bis
ihetk close to the transmitter, said.
"Hello."
