It has been established that Elwell was in his home at 2.30 o'clock on Friday morning and that a telephone Message was received by him at that hour. The detectives declare post- tively that no calls went out of the thouse in the hours of the morning preceding the crime. Assistant District Attorney Dooling Said to-day that he has'a witness to Prove that the murder victim was in his home at the hour mentioned, but ‘he dectined to divulge the sex of the witness. All he would say was that the witness was accurate and that athe source was reliable. The District Attorney planned to- da; to get from John Islade in person his story that a roadster drove up to the Elwell house at 3.45 o'clock on the morning of the murder, making so Much noise that he was drawn to the window and saw a man get out of the ™achine.

(Special Correspondent of The Evi ning World. TACOMA, Wash., June 21 (Copy- right, 1920)—Poor Warren Harding! Aside from the ueual campalgn yarns to which a Presidential nominee is compelied to listen he must now sub- mit for the rest of his life to inside stories galore of how he was nom- inated at Chicago. Even to this distance strange tales have been wafted telling vividly the way the Presidential nomination was bestPwed on the Ohio Senator, Every- bady is given credit for having had the lucky thought sometime between midnight and the sunrise hour of June 12, which was the day on which candidates, For seven years Woodrow Wilson bas been told how he was nominated at the famous Baltimore Convention in 1912. And it is recorded to this day in the unwritten archives of the Democratic Party that Roger Sulll- van turned the trick; that Bryan did it; that Col.

Morgan & Co. * And it is a fact that neither Col Harvey nor Mr. Lamont Mr. Lamont, by the way,'is a per- sonal friend of President Wilson and came back’ on the steamer George Washington with him fromthe Paris Peace Conference, Mr. Lamont served on the firtancial section of the Ameri- can Peace Mission, and has been in China and Japan helping to rehabili- tate the finances of the Far East, so hig dropping in at the Ciiicago Con- vention was merely incidental, And he probably had no desire to influence the Republican Convention, even when he did find commodious quarters with Col, Harvey at a sumptuous Chicago hostelry. CONTROLLING GROUP DOMIN- ATE ALL CONVENTIONS, Now, Col, Harvey has been a power in Republican councils, but to nomi- nate him, Republican boys is a little exaggerated. The Republican Con- vention at Chicago was bossed or unbossed, according as one regards the half dozen or more leaders who con- trol the big delegations in any con- vention, be It Republican or Demo- cratic, Such a group will always exist smoked, Efforts have been made to get a finger print from it, but with what succ is not known, Mr. Dooling was asked if Bender, the chauffeur who suid he carried only three members of the Lewisohn theatre party to their homes on the morning of the murder, had been further questioned or had been con- fronted with Mr. and Mrs. Lewisohn, Miss Viola Kraus and Mr, Figureoa’ When Mr. Iooling answered about Bender he said: “It seems now that the chauffeur Isn't so sure whether he really did carry three or four persons in his taxi that night Mr, Dooling’s attention was called to a newspaper story said to have been told to the authorities by Rhodes to the effect that Elwell, dur- ing his last stay in Palm Beach, had angered a man by bis attentions to the man's wife. According to this story Rhodes described a scene in a arage in Palm Beach the day before well left there.

POLITICALLY ——— 6 Tells Harvard Law School Péople Are Unable to Shake Off ‘Wartime Laws. . | CAMBRIDGE,, Mass,,. June 21— The centennial of the Harvard Law | School was celebrated to-day by ap- ®\ proximately 350 graduates, The school was founded in 1817, but war {Conditions caused postponement of | the celebration, | The ‘programme included as |#peakers Charles E, Hughes, Presi- @) dent A.

In his address, Mr. Hughes said: “In the art of governing ourselves we not only fall short of what we should expect in a free people of so great intelligence but we frequently present a sorry spectacle.” His sub- ject was: “Some Observations on Legal Hducatidn’ and Democratic Progress.” “The regrettable thing,” Mr. Hughes continued, “is that the tendency to enact uncertain laws seems to be in- creasing, and, what is still worse, that the people toferate it and that there are but faint demands for improve- ment.

Credit for the nomination of Hard- ing must repose on these men; Sen- ator Penrose of Pennsylvania and his representative at Chicago, John T. King of Conecticut; Charles B. War- ren, National Committeeman from Michigan; Sepitor Wadsworth of New York, Nicholas Murray Butler and State Senator Tulley of New York, Senator “Jim” Watson of In- diana, Senator Lodge of Massachu- setts and former Senator Murray Crane of the same State and Tobias Hert of Kentucky. There are others—some 700 dele- gates—who played their part af- firmatively, too, but there is anotner list, composed of Senator Hiram Johnson and Senator Borah, who put the veto on Wood and Lowden by their fuss over campaign expendi- tures, Finally, to Senator Poindex- ter of Washington, Pennsylvania, Frank Willis and Myron Herrick of Ohio and Gov. Al- len of Kansas—all of whom were persuaded to, hold their delegations intact so that Leonard Wood would not get their votes in a pinch—to these men must be given some credit for creating the situation that gave, birth to the Harding candidacy. (Newspapers will contend that the convention was bossed and unbossed Leaders there were and negotiations aplenty.

Former President Taft, who was at New Hayen during the convention, is evidently the victim of the mysterious varn that is being’ widely spread namely, that Will Hays was the dar! horse candidate of the “bitter enders, meaning. presumably the Borah- Jotmson group, This much is right— Will Hays was a dark horse candidate but he was about as much beloved in the Johnson camp as Herbert Hoover, ys was modestly in the backs but there was a group—some whisper that it was led by Col. William Boyce Thomp- son of New York and Raymond Robins—who wanted Hays.

Manual Gaban, a Spantard, living at No. 380 West 12th Street, and owning @ restaurant at No. 7683 Washington Street, failed to return to his home last night, and this morning His wife went in search of him. Failing to find him at the restaurant, shesked the police to help. She told them that her husband, in addition to his home, kept a furnished room at No. 770 Washing- ton Street. Detectives went there. The door was locked, but they forced it. Gaban was found dead on the bed, face down, a bullet wound in his heart. The police say there is evidence that the bed had been occu- pled by two persons. How the second got out leaving the door lock on the inside is a question, btu the fact that the second did get out is indicated by the fact that no firearm was found in the room, Inquires at the restaurant disclosed that Gaban had left there at 1 o’clook in the morning accompanied by two men. They learned that one of his companions said goodbye him at the corner of 12th and ‘ashington Streets, The other walked on with him.
