Al REVOLT Insurgent Movo Launched by the Daughters of the American Revo lution, Similar to Recent Scrap In House of Representatives. PROMOTERS ARE NOT WORRYING Tex Rlckard Does Not Care Whether Fighters Agreed on Referee or Not, as Articles Protect Them Docs Not Caro Who Third Man Is. SCHLEY STILL IS WASHINGTON, D. C, April 19. An Insurgent movo similar to tho light ngnlnst Sppnlter Cannon In tho houso ot reproaentntlvoa was launch ed horo with tho opening scs Blon of tho Daughters ot tho American Revolution. Tho "insurgents" de clare that President General Mrs. M. T. Scott, named all tho committees from personal followers. They de mand that tho rules In connection with tho appointment ot tho various committees bo changed In such man ner as to curtail the power ot tho chair. Mrs. Scott docs not seem at all alarmed by tho uprising. She placid ly declared that there will not ho any trouble with tho Insurgents. Sho eeld that she expects that the session will bo harmonious, and tho "Insurg Ing Insurgents" will quiet down after things aro In full swine. "I assure you," sho said while talk ing to a number ot newspaper men, "that this session will bo harmoni ous." Despite the reassuring romarks ot Mrs. Scott, Indications are that there will be much friction developed as the session progresses. The political opponents of tho chair are bitter In their denunciation of what they term hor "favoritism," and It is believed that a determined effort to change the rules in regard to commltteo appointments will be made. , President Dogdcs. President Taft has dodged an other attempt to raise the woman's suffrage question. men Mrs. M. T. Scott, president of tho Daughters of the American Revolution, which has opened its ses sion here, Introduced tho president to the assemblage she said: "It has been rumored that the pres ident does net favor woman suffrage. If this Is true he Is not consulting his own interests, for millions ot Amer ican women admire him and would Toto for him If they had tho opportu nity." TBe president hesitated a moment, and plainly showed by his manner that ho had expected no references to be made to the late Incident before the suffrage convention when he was hissed for expressing his opinions as to votes for women. He then replied: "I confess when I came to this hall that I did not expect to have present ed to mo matter for controversy. I thought what brought us together was something which wo had all agreed upon. I am going to contin ue this assumption without the power er or the place of women." No -further attempts to bring up the subject, which was plainly dis tasteful to Taft, was tried. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. April 1'. "It Jack Johnson wants to pick i Jack Welsh for his retoreo that's his nrlvlleKO." said Tex Rlckard In discussing tho report trom Chicago that Johnson would Insist on Welsh. "I can't see why Jettrle3 should object to iho selection ot Welsh, but Jeffries may navo another man In mind. If tho fighters fall out over the choosing of a referee that will not causo us any lost sleep. "The articles say that If they fall to agree on a referee within CO days of tho fight, tho promoters shall mako tho selection." COOK DEFENDER Admiral Says He Still Behoves That Doctor Reached the Pole Says Peary Is Cook's Best Witness Believes in Both. Rlckard said that "genial Jack" would arrlvo hero from Chicago Wed nesday morning and that he had a wire from Gleason that all arrange ments had been completed In the east. Glcanson Is not bringing Mlstah Johnson with him, but Rlckard Is certain that "Lll Artha" will bo on his way to his training station at Seal Rock houso soon. "Johnson was due to leave Chicago lnst Saturday." said RIskard. "but I supposo something has held him back. We have no fear about his physical condition, but we would like to see htm out hero, where wo can hold him down." WASHINGTON, D. C, April 10. Admiral Wintleld Scott Schley be lieves that Dr. Frederick A. Cook reached tho ncrth pole. After care ful and painstaking study Admiral Schley declares he has found no rea son for believing that Cook did not reach the polo and tho evidence fur nished by Peary In support of his clatm substantiated the claims of LCook. "I believe that both Cool: ana Peary reached tho pole, "declared Schley. "I think Peary Is tho best witness In Cook's behalf. I cannot see how any partial man can com- paro tho accounts ot the two explor ers without concluding ono might have wrltton because of tho other, and that both men saw what they des cribed. There Is glory and money enough for both. They trouble with Cook Is precisely tho samo that has confronted many before him. The first explorer Is alwnys discredited."
