WILSON SEES F, 0, PEIFfELD Also Talks Over Ambassadorship With Augustus Thomas—Holds First For- mal Meeting With His Cabinet—in- troduced to Foreign Ambassadors. Opens Many Telegrams, t AVashingtoii. March. 7.—Burred from the White House by President Wilson, the office seekers who have not Tlioeu \personally invited\ began a raid ou the departments headed by members of the cabinet. The assaults by this big army will not cease until every hungry spoilsman lias landed in a good place or has been turned down so hard that even he must realize his case is utterly hopeless. The number of tioso who were invited to the White House was notably small. Even before President Wilson had warned the job hunters away the office seekers had discovered that the \politi- cal plum tree'' of 1018 bore little firuit, having- suffered from the \blight\ of extended civil service rules and the added requisite of familiarity with the complications existing in government departments. Scores of disappointed ,iob hunters who expected good places are cooling their heels in the hotels of the capital and bemoaning their fate. Cabinet Members Busy. A further complication is found! in the fact that the heads of the various departments, being now in their posi- tions, are evincing no haste in making- changes in the staffs over which they preside. The politicians do not appear toi be hopeful, despite the assurance of Chair- man McCombs of the national commit- tee that the claims of \all organiza- tion workers of good reputation will be favorably considered.\ Wilson Sees Many Callers. President Wilson's second day in the White House found a long engage- ment list awaiting his attention. Baron Chinda, ambassador from Ja- pan to the United States, the first rep- resentative of a foreign power to be received formally, was among the first. He bore the congratulations of the Japanese emperor to Mr. Wilson. The reception was in the blue room, with all the ceremony that accompa- nies the visit of an ambassador to a president. Ambassador Bryee of Great Britain met President Wilson inform- ally. The president gave a practical dem- onstration of the application of his new patronage rule to two senators. Senators Bryan and Fletcher of F3or- ida, called at the White House to dis- cuss appointments oE a district judge and a United Stales attorney in the southern district of Florida. The pres- ident received them courteously, Imt asked them to make their recommen- dations to the attorney general. Congratulatory lolegrams and letters poured into Hie While IIou.se from nil over the world. They ranged all the way from emperors, kings' and presi- dents of foreign republics to commu- nications from promt fathers and moth- ers, who announced Hie birth on March 4 of sons who are to be named \Wood- row Wilson.\ Most of (he governors of the states, many mayors of cities and scores of prominent Democrats contributed their messages. Cabinet's First Formal Meeting. President Wilson's cabinet met for- mally for the first time. TLie previous conference was held before the nomi- nations were sent to the senate, and the meeting had no official standing. No provision -had been made for Vice President Marshall, although President Wilson has been quoted as saying tliat he saw no reason against it. Attorney Ooueval Mclteynolds, Sec- retary McAdoo of the treasury depart- ment and Secretary Redfield of the de- partment of commerce, took the oaths of office. Mr. McAdoo was sworn in by Associate Justice Hughes of the supreme court. GIRL FIGHTS WAY TO WILSON, Her Enthusiasm Pleases President, and He Stops to Chat. Washington. March 7.—\\Mister Pres- 'ident! Oh, Mister President!\ a small, shrill voice shouted as President Wil- son descended the steps of the White House to walk to iris office. \1 want to shake hands with you.\ The president stopped and looked to see a diminutive young woman strug- gling to pass a big policeman. Motion- ing the policeman aside the president advanced toward her., She tossed a huge muff toward the policeman say- ing: \Hold my nuilf, the president might be afraid I had a gun in it. 1 am only n young New Jersey schoolteacher,\ she explained, \but I just had to shaike bands with you.\ The president appeared pleased by her enthusiasm and shook hands and chatted with bis visitor for several minutes.

The order of the president was in- terpreted by army officers to give Gen- eral Wood tenure of office for the re- mainder of the term for which he was originally appointed and not necessari- ly for a longer time. Tho names of Major General William IT. Carter and Major Genera! Thomas H. Barry had been mentioned as possible successors of General Wood in the new adminis- tration. The army legislation of the last twe years has been marked by the intense opposition of Representative Hay of Virginia, chairman of the house com- mittee on military affairs, to all the reforms proposed by General Wood, and this fact caused much doubt that he would be retained by the president. \UMULTY AT WORK AT 8 A. M. President's Secretary Shatters Prece- dents by Early Appearance. Washington. MaHi 7.—-losepb. P. Tumulty. President Wilson's secretary, started a small precedent shattering campaign of Jite own. Mr. ftrailUy got to work at S a. in. Xobndy in Washington in the government service ever hoard of any one who got to work so early. Most government officials get to work between !> and 10, with the odds on 10. Mr. Tumulty found few clerks in his office when lie arrived this mnni- im:. but had his own desk clear before the busiue^ of the day began. layer's New Lawyer Withdraws Habeas Corpus Writ, LIKELY TO TRY IT AGAIN. Henry Hirschberg, Counsel, Says He Is Not Familiar With Case — Confer- ences Denied at Matteawan—Thaw Goes Back to Asylum, and Hirsch- berg and Dr. Kennedy Will Meet. New York, March 7.—The writ of habeas corpus in the case of Harry K. Thaw was withdrawn upon application of his counsel, Henry Hirschberg, when he appeared before Justice Giegerich in the supreme court. This temporarily ends Thaw's latest light to gain his freedom. When the proceedings were started Hirschberg asked permission of the court to withdraw the writ. Justice Giegerich inquired of William T. Je- rome, who represented the attorney general, if the people's case would be injured' by this procedure. Jerome an swered that it would not, but that the attorney general wanted the record* clear. The writ Was then ordered with- drawn. Within two minutes after Justice Giegerich had permitted the writ to lie withdrawn Thaw was on his way back to Matteawan. Hirschberg gave as the reason for his application that counsel had not had an opportunity to consult with Thaw and in consequence was not ready to argue the case. Dr. Charles Kennedy, who instituted the habeas corpus proceedings, had an- nounced before Thaw was brought to court that he would ask to have the case adjourned. In that even Thaw would have been remanded to the Tombs, and Kennedy would have had ample opportunity to confer with Thaw, £nch. conferences were denied him at Matteawan. ROMANOFF TERCENTENARY. Czar Visits Cathedral and Pardons Po- litical Prisoners. St. Petersburg. March 7.—The second day of the Romanoff tercentenary cele- bration began with twenty-one guns booming across the frozen Neva, and the populace, mindful of what was ex- pected from them, thronged the streets cheering perfunctorily. At 11 o'clock a solemn liturgy and thanksgiving service was celebrated at the Kazan cathedral, the entire court with all the high dignitaries of the empire and a delegation represent- ing different classes of the population being in attendance. Nearly 40.000 troops lined the route from the Windsor palace to the cathe- dral, and vast throngs packed the side- walks behind the soldiers. Czar Nicho- las drove in an open carriage escorted by his bodyguard of Cossacks. Behind him in a state carriage rode the dow- ager Empress Marie. The czarina and- the czarevitch were not in evidence, it being reported that they were indis- posed. At the conclusion of tho services the prodeacon, standing in the center of the altar, read the czar's manifesto granting- freedom to political prisoners in honor of the occasion. FRENCH ARMY BILL BRYAN- MEETS DIPLOMATS. First Formal Reception of Corps by New Secretary of State. Wiishiuisruu. March 7. — Secretary Bryan tu.WL his ijr.-.it \diplomatic day.\ Custom decrees that when a new secre- tary of state takes office the diplomatic corps of hi-s administration shall call upon him formally. Many appear in full court regalia, and the diplomatic reception room at the state department on such occasions presents all the ap- pearance of a levee. One of the prime objects of the func- tion is to permit Ihe secretary to meet (he representatives of the foreign na- tions with whom he is to deal. MAL0NE FOR COLLECTOR. O'Gorman's Son-in-.'aw May Succeed William Loeb, Jr. Xew York. March 7.—Dudley Field Miiloiie, who was up to the last elec- tion an assistant to the corporation counsel, is to be appointed collector of the port of New York to succeed Wil- liam Loeb, Jr., according to advices that came from Washington.

Appeal to People to Submit to Patri- otic Sacrifices Entailed. Paris, March 7.—An appeal to the people of France to submit cheerfully to the patriotic sacrifices called for by the new military bill increasing the term of service in the active army to three years instead of two was made when the cabinet submitted the meas- ure to parliament. This, measure will add to the peace effectiveness of the French army Ifjo.- ono men, and not ±10,000,'as was at lirst. stated, since greater care is to be exercised in the selection of recruits. The system of two years' service, which has been in existence since bS!J5, according to the government, ha* proved insufficient for the complete training of the men, while the decrease in the birth rate in France also tended to make an additional year necessary, if France was to maintain an adequate defense. Home exceptions to the gen- eral rule are made in the bill, as youths belonging\ to large families con- sisting of at least six children \will serve only two years. WILSON IN \FAKE PHOTOS.\ Tom, Dick and Harry Being \Taken'' With the New President. Washington. March 7. — \Photo graphic impertinence,\ which Mr. Taft- angrily stopped, was directed at Presi- dent Wilson. The making of \fake\ photographs of Tom, Dick, and H.irrj smilingly shaking hands with tile presi- dent, holding telephone conversation.- with, him and seated at the White House cabinet table was resumed by Pennsylvania avenue photographers with, the new president as their sub ject.

SERMff TRMPS DROWNEI Sink With Three Greek Transports When Shot Full of Holes by Ottoman Cruiser Hamidieh—Convoy of Twen- ty-four Vessels Beaten Off and Sol- diers Left at Mercy of Guns. Athens. Greece, March 7.—The Tur- kish fortress of Janina was entered by three- squadrons of Greek cavalry un- der the command of General Souzo. The Greek army tool.: 32,000 Turkish prisoners. These comprised the whole of the ordinary garrison and many of the refugees from Monistar and other places. An earlier dispatch had reported an offer to surrender the fortress as hav- ing been made by Essaad Pasha, the commander of tho Turkish garrison, following a victory by the Greek troops. CLARK ELECTED CHAiRM. Takes. Lane's Place as Head of Inter- state CorrtrrtQrcs Commission. •Washington, March 7. —Commission- er Edgar E. Clark, renominated by President Wilson as interstate com- merce commissioner, was elected chair- man of the commission by his col- leagues. He w-ill serve for one year. Sir. Clark succeeds Franklin K. Lane, the new secretary of the Interior, as chair- man. John H. Marble is the new member of the commission. Rejoicing In London. London, March 7.—There is great re- joicing in Greek diplomatic circles and among the Greek residents of London over the fall of the important Turkish stronghold of Janina, which had hith- erto offered such stern resistance to tlie Greek attack. Their joy is not only on account of the success of their army in the field, but because they claim that the capture of Janina places Greece in a much stronger position to deal with Bulgaria when the time comes for the division of the spoils of war. Three Greek Transports Sunk. Vienna, March 7.—The Turkish cruis- er Hamidieh sank three Greek trans- ports loaded with Servian troops on the way to Scutari, according to a Constan- tinople dispatch to the Neue Freie Presso. The attack on tha transports was made, it is said, near the peninsula of Hag-ion Oros, in the Aegean sea. This would make it appear that the trans- ports were proceeding not to Scutari, but to Gallipoli, where it was proposed some time ago by the Balkan allies to make a flank attack on the Turkish troops defending the Dardanelles. The convoy of Greek transports was a large one, consisting of twenty-four vessels, which carried thirty-four guns. They were encountered by the cruiser Hamidieh soon after they had left the coast. With her battery of powerful 4.7 inch guns she was able to create havoc among the practically unprotect- ed transports loaded with soldiers, ac- cording to the report received here. WOMEN in LONDON ELECTION, Police Precautions to Prevent Mili- tants Interfering With Boxes. London, March 7.—-The keenest inter- est was taken in the ninth triennial election of the members of the London county council, not only because of the sharply divided opinion on municipal issues at stake, but because of the threats of militant suffragettes to de- stroy the ballot papers. Special pre- cautions were taken by the police to prevent any interference wiGb the Fal- lot boxes by the women, many of whom are entitled to vote at municipal elec- tions. The aperture through which the voting papers are dropped into the boxes was made narrower, while po- licemen were posted to keep a shaxp lookout on every woman entering the polling booths. TELEGRAPHIC TICKS. Governor Mann granted a respite until March -S to Floyd and Claude Allen, sen- tenced to die March 14, 1912, for their part in the Hillsville court murders. Governor Walter E. Clark of Alaska lias mailed his resignation to President Wil- son. As soon as relieved he will go to Connecticut to visit his parents. George W. Stewart, for ten years a member of the- Boston Symphony orches- tra, has been appointed musical director for the Panama-Pacific exposition. Sergeant J. D. Manley of the Texas na- tional guard, who killPd a spectator of the Taft parade in Dallas four years ago, lost his appeal from his forty year sen- tence. The pardon committee of the Massachu- setts governor's council voted a pardon for Edward F. Costello, who has served twenty-two years of a life sentence for killing his son. DEATHS 0'F A DAY.
