I..K1'T VOW. KKA.VCK. j
If President Wilson left anything un- 1 done -on sailiiiK I'or Franco Wednes¬ day morning it will be nothing more tlian political work that can wait un¬ til his return. Predictions are that he will he hack in Washington hy the'
middle ot June to see that Congress, j (^ ^arrant a charge of murder in assemhled In special session, putgjjin. ease, and .Monday morning Wil- Ihrinmh the supply bills that will fall | [jam Peltit, the dead man's hrother- of passage it this session before the end of tho fiscal year.
County Detective .Neimeyer and the police authorities, after a thor¬ ough invesliK'il'on of the death ol llarnet F. llocli, at Easton, on Sat¬ urday night came to tho conclusion Ihat there was not sulhciont evidence
With Iho passage of th<? N'ictory bond hill, which occasioned keen gratification at the White House the President's hoiisq^ is in order. All the routine that had i)il(Hl up in 13 weeks has been <deared away in flve days,
The President signed several hills, attended to a mass of routine work and conferred with Uahhi Wise, Juli¬ an Mack. Hernard E. Hicharda I.ouls Marshall on tlie hopes of the Jews for action on Zionism hy the peace conference. He also found time to go to church with Mrs Wil¬ son Sunday morning and to take a motor trip into the country In tho afternoon.
Although there was no formal ex¬ pression fror>1 the White House the President is known to be distinctly pleased at his viciory in the Senate, whitdi .jammi'd throirgh the nond hill essential to the \'ictory I.oan in Ajiril at its night session Saturd.ay night. Ho had stood pat. ^-itii no as¬ surance that tho Republicans would permit passage of the measure, and hid drawn the Issue clearly.
His pleasure was not so much he- cause of the victory Itself, however, as because the financial work entailed in getting the soldiers home from France may go forward without inter- rtiiition. Failure of the hill might have been embarrassing, although it is imderstood now that the Treasury Department could have worried along until near the end of June It has an authorization of l.'i.0:^2.000,000 in honds still unsold. This amount, with taxes received March 15 and June 1.1, cnuld have kept the Oovern- ment moving until midsummer at least, acoording to unofUcial informa¬ tion from Treasury experts, this story could he obtained. Secre¬ tary fJlass has told friends that he ex¬ pected the Presfdent to annoimce his choice for the Board before sailitu? for France. The name of Joseph Wilson has heen mentioned before .is nn appointee possibility, but nothing ever oa'me of it..It is hardly likely that, if the President decides to name his brother, he will send the nomina¬ tion to Congre.<?s at this late date. Rather, the appointment may be made in the recess, to come up for confirmation later.
The President will devote most of Monday meeting with the Covernor-: and Mayors to discards the labor situ¬ ation. Nothing was on the program for Monday evening, and the Presi¬ dent used the time packing for his trip. When he left Ihe Whit" House for the Capitol Tuesday morn¬ ing he did not return, going directly from the Capitol to the station to Board his sjieclal train for Xew "S'ork
The assumption that he will be back in the Ignited States by mid- June is based nn t!ie necessity of hav¬ ing Coneri'ss on the Jnh to [lass the eppropriatloiiB for th* n«xt fiscal year The passage of the bond hill will pro¬ vide funds for meeting war expenses, but will not start the various depart¬ ments on the fiscal year 19 20. T" sirjiplv hills must he enacted hv Julv Isl. , ¦ ¦
Further basis for the prediction is found in confidential reports from Euroiie to the effect that peace nego¬ tiations have reached the stage where they can he taken up and put through with    some    measure of expenditure.
It was rumored that tho President has been considering his brother. Joseph Wilson of Ilaltimore. for nom¬ ination as a member of the Federal Reserve Board. N'o verification of The slow preliminary work has been virtually    completed      It   is expected

A few inches from Hoch's head, under the kitchen table, lay a ham- ini;rloss Zt calilire revolver.,11 wa-i apparent that Hoch, his wife, Pettit and several women living in the neighborhood, who liad been there, had  been drinking to excess.
The officers slate there were nearly five hundred empty bottles in the house, many of them empty quarts. They also assert that it was the "dir¬ tiest nest" they had heen in, in many months. Mrs. Hoch took In wash¬ ing, an devidently never did a thing in  the way of cleaning her  house.,,
The story told the officers was that they had all been drinking in the kitchen when Hoch who was said to have been jealous of P'ttit. went up¬ stairs to his room, and staggered down the steps with a revolver which he flourished abov.t. and then fired a bullet into his head.

The lirsl numbers were hy Ihi' club and were "Long .May She L,ive," aad "I'he Americans Come," both of which were uiucii appre-ciuted. Mr. Koehier lollowed with ii vocal solo, "The Ocean King," ajid scored a hit. He is a new soiolst with the rlub and his long idenlilicalion wilh large choirs has lilted him splendidly ior his wo.rk wilh Uu; organization.

His experience there enabled him lo por¬ tray army life in tliis sktt in a true style, and the humor he has woven into the slory together with the dis¬ cipline of the life portrayed in the sketch, makes it one that never fails to score a hit wherivitr presented.
