President Wilson In Full Control
Of Policies As Congress Adjourns
Washington, June 5.—With Congress adjourning, Presi- dent Wilson today spent the busiest day since he was stricken iil last September. Starting this morning with a letter to railroad labor leaders condemning Congress for failure to act on high cost of living legislation, the President acted on seventy-three meas¬ ures by 4 p. m. Practically all were rushed through Congress in the clo.sing hours. White House officials declared tonighl Wilson showed no ill effects. "Officially" Wilson acted on all the bills he approved before 4 p. m., the hour of congressional adjournment. Tlie last two bills the President signed did not reach the White House until 3:53 o'clock.
Following his veto of the budget bill laat night. President Wilson vetoed one measure today,—a bill granting $3,975 to owners of land damaged by construction work on the Black Warrior river. President Wilson gave as his reason for failing to sign three important bills before adjournment that he had not been given time to consider them fully. TTiese were: Re¬ peal of all wartime legislation except the Lever and trading with the enemy acts; use of public lands for the private development of waterpower sites under govemment regulation; appointment of a commission to confer with Canada on restrictions on the ex¬ port of pulpwood for newsprint therefrom to the United States.
Among the measures which Wilson signed were: The merchant marine bill, providing for the sale of the American merchant fleet; the army and navy appropriation bills; the army reorganization bill, providing for a standing army of 279,000 men, and revision of the army court-martial system; permitting use of government radio for press and commercial messages; third deficiency bill, providing for immediate financial needs of various government departments; the postal salary increase bill; the rivers and harbors appropriation bill for construction, re¬ pair and preservation of public works on rivers and harbors; the 1921 pensions appropriations bill; diplomatic and consular, sundry civil and District of Columbia appropriation bills.

A charge of murder will probably be lodged against Mra. Joseph Nemec of Simpsoa tomorrow as the newest development in t he investigation into the death of Alec Miskel, veteran of the world war. who was found shot to death at his home in Simpson. Police officials of Lackawanna county order¬ ed Mrs. Nemec locked up yesterday. She was locked up in a cell near the one occupied In the county jail by her husband who h.as also been arrested In connection with the case.
When Mrs. Nemec waa taken to jail, she Insisted on taking along with her five   young   children.     An   effort   waa made to Hcparafe her from the children, but she hecame so hysterical that the only way to quiet her was to p>ermlt the j youngsters to be imprisoned with her. j At  the  same  time two other children j were    found    to    he    suffering    from meuKlPH.    They were taken  in charge by health authorities and committed to an Institution for treatment.
.Miskel. a young man who returned last year from overseas service in the army, waa found dead in his room in the home of the Nemec couple where he had roomed for some months. By his side was a revolver. The bullet had struck him under the left eye and trav t;ing upward had iienetrated the bain.
The first arrest made by the police v;.s that of the woman's husband. It v.M.s the result of information grfven the police to the effect that the young sol- uier and the woman were known by the husband to be infatuated with each other. An investigation is being made to determine whether Nemec in at- tv'nipt to end his domestic unhapplness ileeuled lo remove the star boarder by ihe death loiite.
\\nien Mrs. Nemec waa arrested, she protested that she loved the young soldier and that if anyone had killed him, it was her husband. She claimed over and agai i that her husband was the assailant. Up to the present time she has not advanced any proof of her claim, which is the most puzzling part of the whole mystery, officials claim.
The theor.v of suicide '.s also being entertalneu by the police.

Chicago. June 5.—Herbert Hoover's managers tonight were making careful plans for a drive which they hoped will win him the nomination.
Hoover stock rose today as a result of these preparations and several other developments. Announcement that Senator Boies Penrose will not attend the convention means that Hoover's bitterest enemy in the inner councils of the party will be absent from the scene, y j The continued deadlock of active can¬ didates will .Tid the chances of the for¬ mer food adniinistrittor, hia managers said.
Hoover's headquarters on candidate.s' row today was more uctivv tban at any time past. Callers included former Gover.ior Whilnutn of New York. Wm. t',. Wilcox, former chairman of the Ke-
¦ publican Congressional campaign coin- 'mittee; Oscar Straus, New Vork philan-
¦ thropist and    former    Ambassador    to j Turkey,  and  Bertram  Snell,  chairman
  «'f the executive committee of the New
, «¦       I ^"''li State central committee.
State Agent Arrests Four Men,   Hoover i» m New York, his head-
jQuarlr-s said, and does not expect to come to Chicago during the conven¬ tion. He is constantly in touch, with his headijuarters here by long distance telephone.
Hia managers are counting on a slow, steady development when the balloting begins, hoping to gain suf- ncient votes a.s the othe- candidates are eliminated.
"We don't w.ant any delegates to vote for him until they have fulfilled all ob ligations to their flrst choice preferences," one of Hoover's mana- i gers said. They were busy tonight trying to decide on who is to make the

Slemp, comnaitteeman from Virginia, was supposed to endorse Governor Lowden for the Republican Presiden¬ tial nomination. The defeated negro delegates were for Wood.
The negroes chHrged they were barred from the State and district con¬ ventions. They admitted they made no attempt to attend the State con¬ vention and th(» committ«>e ruled they had failed to present a caae.
The committee then began consider¬ ation of the contests in   the districts.
I'hlladelphia, June 5.—The condition of United States Senator Boles Pen- ro.se tonight was described as "slightly Improved" by one of hi.s physicians from the senator's home here. Kurther than creating the impression that Pen¬ rose was holding his own, the doctors in attendance refused to commit them¬ selves.
Five physicians were hurrie'i'v sum¬ moned to the Penro.se home luu- today when 11 became apparent hia condition had t.'iken a turn for the worse. A con¬ sultation over the senator's condition was held by Dr. Charles B. Penrose, Al¬ fred Stengel. Alfred Ii. Carpenter. John B. Beaver and Edward Martin.
Penrose Is the Republican national committeeman and one of the state's twelve delegates at large. It has been frequently said that Penro.se. propped in an arm chair had done a, vast amount of dictation .ind correspondence dur- 'ng the past two weks. This, it is be¬ lieve, may have brought about,the re¬ lapse.
In a bulletin is.sued by his physician* earlier jn the day. it was announced that Penroae would not go to the con- vtritlon. .^ member of the Senator's office force, however, will be in ('hicago and will man the wire connected direct¬ ly with Penro.se'a room.
It became practically certain for a time that Penrose would make the trip to Chic;.^o. in fpite of his doctors coun- sel."* that he remain at home and keep in touch with affairs by a le,-i»ed tele¬ graph wire. All the neceaaary arrange¬ ments had been made. His private car was rea,dy and a specially constructed seat was built for the sick Fonator, as it is reported he cannot lie down.
There will undoubtedly be much con¬ jecture as to who will assume the Pen- ro.se mantle ,it Chicago should his con¬ dition not -pemart him tor talte even the slightest interest in the events there. Political leaders here predict perfect harmo.py within the Pennsylvani-i fold anyhow, by reason of 5?«»nator Knox's statement this afternoon endorsing the state delegation's stand toward Gov¬ ernor Sproul.
Knox Supports Sproul
Knox himself is considered a candi¬ date having iM'en declared tho choice of Penrose by Penrose himself. Knox In his statement denied rumors that he was against Sproul and cLiased as "absurd" stories that his absence from the Chicago convention was "because of the endors<'mp.nt given Governor Sproul by the Pennsylvania delega¬ tion."
Following ia the full text of the Knox statement: "If I were not compelled to absent myself from the Chicago con- ve.iiion by personal business rea.<>ons which demand my immediate attention. I would Vote for (Jovernor Sproul. I Wlil, however, be represented at Chicago by an alternate.—Judge James H. Reed, cf llttsburg—who shares my views that the Republican party could not name a better man than Governor Sprvwl for President
•The attempts to twist my enforced absence'from the Chicago convention into a story that I ara not going be¬ cause of the eadorsvment given Gov¬ ernor Sproul by the Republican dele¬ gation is utterly absurd. Nothing could be more untrue and ridiculous. I have the warmest admiration for Governor Sproul and for his splendid quaJitlea aa a m.in and a leader. His Rt^publi- canlsm and his administration and legislative experience and ability can b« questioned by no one.
"I regret I cannot bo at Chicago, tot I would like to have the privilege of casting my vot* for Governor Sprout I will, howpver. b# w*n represented there by Jnage James H. R«!d an^ 1 trust my friend.s will clearly ur der¬ stand I am for Governor Sproul and would personally vote for him but fot Virginia i the neres.sity of my remaimng awaj fmm the convention."
