By ROBERT T. SMALL. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) MIAMI BEACH, Fia., Feb. 8,— Leaving the solitude which has been his since he came to Miami Beach a little more than a week ago, At- torney General Harry M. Daugherty yesteglay ventired out into’ the world of affairs to pay the tribute of a lawyer to the memory of Wood- row Wilson, for. whom services were held in the Miami court house. It was the sort of thing that Harry Daugherty felt that his old chief would do. If Warren G. Hard. ing had been alive, Harry Daugherty knew that he would have been among tho first to bespeak the greatness and valor of a fallen foo. And so, Harry Daugherty, member of a Republican cabinet and a be- Hever in partisanship, was the out- standing figure in a remarkabl meeting called here in honor of the dead ex-president. It was an interesting experience for Mr. Daugherty. Of late he has felt more or less that every man’s hand has been raised against him. At this memorial meeting he found every man’s hand raised to greet him, After he had spoken his eulogy of Woodrow Wilson there was a wild rush to shake hands with the supreme lew officer of the reigning administration at Wash- ington and it took the best efforts of “Big Bill” Edwards of New York, ex-collector of internal revenue and ex-foothall player, to rescue the at- torney general from the onslaught of friends. “Big Bill" also spoke. He was a part and parcel of the Wilson ad- miristration. Harry Daugherty was not. As tho personal representative of Warren Harding ho plotted the downfall of the Wilson administra- tion and the turning out of office of all Democrats, good and bad. ‘Yet Harry Daugherty, today an of- ficer of government felt It to be both a duty and a privilege to pay his meed of praise to dead Wilson, war chief of the United States. Mr. Daugherty showed much emotion as he spoke. He com- municated much of his mood to his NAW CHIEF T0 FIGHT FOES. ON TEAPOT LEASE Ouster Proceedings to ‘Be Opposed, Says Edwin Denby. By DAVID LAWRENCE. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—Secre- tary Denby's outspoken defense of his action in signing, the Teapot Dome oll leases is the turning point in the controversy. J There always have been two schools-of thought -on the wisdom of the policy involved in leasing the naval oll reserves and but for the of a loan to the former pei of the interior, Albert B. Fall, by ons of the parties to the contract, the discussion would have been carried along on exactly the lines_announced by Mr. Denby in the last twenty-four hours. It means that even if the senate resolution acme pd ‘Mr, pee at resignation s! la adopted, secretary of the navy will stand his ground and therefore President Coolidge will be in thé position of being compelled to suspend judg- ment while tho question is being debated in congress or tried in the cc&rts. No resolution of the senate can force the president to demand the resignation of a member of his cabinet who has once been con- firmed. Impeachment proceedings may, of course,'be started But the {tial must result in @ conviction before there is a removal from, office, The Democrats are beginning to talk of Impeachment but at present writing it looks as if they will de- pend on the march of events in the next few days in the senate investi- gating committee before making any such move. Some important testimony is forthcoming which is said to be even more sensational than that which has been produced. ‘The exact relations between the men who sought the oil leases and the navy department will be thor- oughly examined. The action of Secretary Denby is in the nature of a challenge for it turns the.fire in his direction once more. There are rumors that President Coolldge was about to adopt the same attitude toward the leases that has just been proclaimed by the secretary of the navy and that a statement to that effect. was in preparaion aboard the Mayflower just before Senator Lenroot went to .the president and told him of the testimony about to be given with respect to the Doheny loan to former Secretary Fall. In- view of those circumstances Mr. Coolidge is Seid to have abandoned the idea of standing by the leases as made until they were proved detrimental to the government in the courts, Instead a statement was issued directing criminal proceedings. DAUGHERTY JOINS IN PRAISE OF WILSON IN SPEECH AT MIAMI hearers and when he had concluded hot a few of those in the audience Were holding handkerchiefs to their eyes. Mr. Daugherty spoke himself as & man harrassed. He, too, has known the bitterness of political at- tack and personal antagonism. Mr. Daugherty has known also the all but helpless feeling of physical dis+ ability in the heat of the battle, so he put hts heart into his words when he said: “Only death, that final tragedy, makes it possible to measure a man according to his merits. In the great whirlwind of human effort, the restlessness of humanity and-of the envious spirit, the modern critic often biased and personal in his criticism, loses his calling when the final tragedy comes, and just, e- liberate and honest civilization be- gins to take worthy account of the man.” Mr. Daugherty said that while he differed with many of Mr. Wilson’s views he had never indulged in per- sonal criticism or recrimination. He said he had nothing to take back regarding Woodrow Wilson, but much to say of the man. “But,” added the attorney general, “whether men agree with him or not, Mr. Wilson’s good conscience and cour- age were never doubted. No man can have courage unless he pos- sesses that essential thing, a correct conscience. Give us in this country men actuated by good conscience and courage -and the traditions of America are secure, civilization 1s not in jeopardy, patriotism will sur- vive, and our country the most at- tractive, the most powerful ard in all respects the freest, safest, proud- est and most unselfish will never so much as tremble on its founda- tions.”” Mr. Daugherty -is showing much improvement as a result of his vacation and his removal from the turmoil of things in Washington. He has bten fishing in .the gulf stream ,has encountered a number of old friends here, and declaring himself of good “conscience” he will “carry on.” From a pt standpoint the declaration of the secretary of the navy is regarded as the only move he could have made. To have main- tained that he knew nothing about the making of the leases. would have stamped him as unaware of important transactions in his own department. To have resigned under fire would have been con: strued as a confession of guilt and of possible knowledge of some of tho sensational things which have been disclosed by the senate investi- gating committee. It said Mr. Denby told friends he would resign if they thought he was embarrass- ing the president. On the other hand, there was a well defined opinion that it would be far more harmful if he resigned at this time without having given the country his side of the story. Mr. Denby's decision to fight will at least becloud the issue and divide opinion more or less along partisan lines. The whole contro- versy is getting. more and _more complicated every day with evident efforts on both the Democratic and Republican sides to expose the mis- takes of the officials in opposite parties whose names have been mentioned in the case. Mr. Denby’s Statement starts the fight that has been” lulldd for a few’ days owing to the death of Woodrow Wilson. m now on the secretary of the ‘vy will be in the limelight and on the defensive. y Poincare Quits French Solons In Huff Today PARIS, Feb. 8.—(By The /Asso- ciated Press.)}—Premier Poincare with all of the cabinet ministers, exasperated by the opposition’s ‘at- tacks, walked out of the chamber of deputies today.

Heavy profit- taking sales was augmented by the offerings of the bear speculators, who sold stocks freely on the theory that the technical condition of the market warranted a temporary re- action. Sales approximated 900,000 shares. NEW YORK, Feb. 8. — stock prices started to sag at the opening of today’s market under the weight of a large volume of realizing sales. Initial recessions were largely frao- Uonal, but were spread over a broad list, Equipments held relatively firm. Selling orders continued to pre. dominate in the early dealings. Otis were again in supply as a result of the federal investigation of gasoline prices and higher crude production and imports, Royal Dutch dropping 1% and Philips Petroleum, Pacific, Houston and Standard Oi] of New Jersey sagging about a point each. Heayiness also was noted in Na tional Supply, Fisk Rubber first pre- ferred, and ‘Mack Truck off 1 to 2 points. were a few strong Spots notably International Harvest- er, Adams Express and White Eagle Ou, up a point or so. Foreign ex- changes opened irregular. The morning market presented a spotty appearance with special strength developing in a number of specialties, particularly United States Cast Iron Pipe, which moved up nearly three points. Davison Chemical and the Casnmercial sol- vents issues were strong on reports of the closing of favorable contracts by both companies, Good buying also was noted in such stocks as Otis Elevator, which advanced 2% points to a new 1924 top; Interna- tional Paper, American Linseed pre- ferred, Sloss Sheffield Steel and Lorillard Tobacco, all up a point or more, Renewed selling broke out in American Woolen and General Electric which lost 1% and a point respectively, Ralls offered stub- born resistance to selling pressure. Call money opened at 4% percent. The closing was heavy. Selling pressure in the late dealings was particularly effective in the specu- lative favorites, National Lead, At- lantic Refining and American Tobacco A and B breaking three to five points.
