Certain members of the SenateJu- diclary Committee privately told members of the Wilson Cabinet that there was really no special purpose to be served in forcing the documents out of the privacy of the Treasury, but those sume Senators voted with the others in a unanimous request that the information be sent to the Senate, This has puzzled the Ad- ministration and was one of the things discussed in the final Cabinet meeting of Tuesday. President Wilson took the position that the ‘action of the Senate Ju- diciary Committee was clear and that if any disadvantage to the good rée- lationg of the United States result- ed froin the spublication of the data, the responsibility would rest with those who make the information pub- lic, nd that so far as the Wilson Administration was concerned it should accede to the requent of the Senate as expressed in the resolution calling for the data. Outside of a discussion of the for- eign loans, to which there waa noth- ing new to be added except to send the data to the Senate, the Cabinet talked of routine matters at its final meeting, The President made sure that every department secretary had concluded every plepe of business which required Executive sanction and the "meeting came to an end, ‘Then it was that Secretary Colby made a ‘brief speech on Behalf of the Cabinet and Mr, Wilson thanked the Cabinet for thelr service to him and shook hands with each member, Farewells of this kind always have an element of pathos, but it was un- mistakable that the departure of Woodrow Wilson from the Cabinet meeting seemed to carry with it more elements of tragedy and defeat than is customary with the outgoing Ex- ecutive, This ts because Mr. Wilson's health is far from good and because his decrepit physical condition is the direct result of his overwork in the rvice of the Nation, WILSON EXCHANGES LETTERS WITH HARDING. Mr, Wilson has exchanged letters with Mr. Harding and they seem to be getting clos together, Mr, Wil- son is very anxious to do the courte- ous thing in every way on Friday, and to be present throughout the ceremonies, but it begins to be ap- parent that Mr. Wilson's physical condition may not permit it. Mr. Harding understands the situation and will fot consider it a discourtesy if Mr, Wilson cannot be present when the oath of office is administered, ‘The truth is that Mr, Wilson will be able to get to the Senate chamber but it is doubtful whether he can stand the added walk from the Senate chamber to the Capitol steps, a dii tance of only 100 feet, but since it in- volves going downstairs the fear is that Mr. Wilson will be unable'to ac company Mr. Harding from the Sen- ate chamber to the ipauparation itand. Mr. Wilson could be conyy in @ roll‘ng chair, but he refuses sae transported that way, and his inte mates say he is particularly sensitive about being subjected to public seru- tiny because of his enfeebied condi- tion, As the Wilson Administration draws to a clone it is gradually be- coming known that many of the em- barrassing delays and irritations which have resulted from Mr. Wil- son's inability to see callers are largely the result of his ill-health, and Republicans who are coming to know the facts no longer suspect Mr, ore u indicated by the note, continues: “The most fundamental contention brought forwanl by the Amenican note Is that ‘the approval of the United States of America is essential to the validity of any determination MRS |SABELLE CORA ORTHWEIN Oe" Res roce" | TRACTION FIGHT ON IN ALBANY TO-DAY: TES BACK NEW YORK THE EVENING WORLD, “SG MAROK 2, 1921.

De Fotd, the as sistant prosecutor in charge of the prosecution of the fifty-two building material builders grouped as “James A. Ames and others.” Mr. Richter aaid Mr. Untermyer felt from their reports that Mr. De Ford was “in- subordinate.” “We felt, the corre Mr. Richter under questioning & Charles Brophy, counsel for Mr. n, “Mr. De Ford ought definitely to show the attitud: of the Attorney General's Office by demanding jail sentences for all the defendants, Mr, De Ford apparently felt that this would be improper and that he should merely await an op- portunity to make recommendations if permitted by the Court. Mr, Ber- ger and I pointed out that the Court might not care to ask for recommen- dations and t the Court should advise and urge jail sentences with- out waiting for the Court's invitation or permission. We had been for some time in doubt as‘to the spirit of Mr. De Ford's co-operation.” Mr. Richter said that Mr, Unter- myer directed him by telegraph Feb, 16 to read to William P, Beazell of The World the correspondence re- warding Mr, De Ford, and that he did read the correspondence to Mr. Beazell by telephone. “Mr, Untermyer,” he continued, giv- ing the substance of the corre spondence, “was growing greatly dis satisfied with Mr, De Ford, Mr, Un- termyer had heard from a New Yorker that Mr. De Ford was nego+ tlating with some of the defendants under the indictment of James A. Ames ct al, concerning the acceptance of pleas of gullty from them under an understanding that they should be punished only by fines. “Then it was that Mr. Untermyer made the perhaps unfortunate obser- vation that ‘they are probably dan- sling before jim (Mr. De Ford) ihe District Attorneyship.’ “We hel tbean attacked by (hi newspapers which Mr. De Ford repre sents" (Mr, De Ford has been of coun- sel for the Hearst newspapers) “and I thought we might have trouble witli him Iater. For that reason I wanted to he sure that at least one news paper in New York sbeuld know what said had happoned in case Mr. De Ford broke with us and later started trouble.” On his direct testimony, questioned by Mr. De Ford, Mr. Iichter exhibit- ed a telegram which he said he had recelyed from Mr. Untermyer. Mr. De Ford asked to have the whole telegram put into the record, Jus- tice McAvoy limited the part of it which could be used. Mr. De Ford gaid it seemed to him to bbe an at- k on the court, Appirently it is an attack on the id Justice MeAvoy and for reason I will admit it in evi- dence, The reque preserved court ut granted Mr, De Ford's the entire telegram be of possible usefulness in the event of @ sult for criminal libel. Mr, Richter said he did not inspire the publication of any article in The World. William P. Beazell of the staff of ‘The World told of receiving the mes- sage described by Mr. Richter, Feb, 18, He had no knowledge up to that time of any differences between Mr. (ntermyer and his associates, Richter told him Mr, Unterm tt vd from Palm Bei ‘as nothing in the previous Mr, Beazell said he knew nothing what Was meant by “previous story, plained the nd Mr. Richter ex- history of the friction, Mr, Beazell said he informed hiss city editor and later the acting eity editor of the conversation, and under their instructions made Mr, Seallan acquainted with it as possibl ving some ‘bearing on Mr, Berger's posi- tive announcement that jail sentences would be asked for all building trade defendants hereafter.
