WASHINGTON', D. C. July 30.
Three senatorial primaries on Tues
day are commanding the attention
of political Washington. Missouri,
Virginia and West Virginia will se
lect their candidates. Interest cen
ters chiefly in the Missouri contest
where Senator Reed is having the
fight of his life to obtain renomina
tion against Breckenridge Long, ex
assistant secretary of state.
The principal issue in Missouri
appears to be Wilsonism. Senator
Reed, a democrat of tne old school,
was one of President Wilson's
sternest critics, and an ardent op
ponent of Mr. Wilson's pet project,
the league of nations. Long was
one of Wilson's most ardent sap
porters. The ex-president from the
seclusion of the Washington home,
has written several letters to the
voters of Missouri urging them to
defeat Reed' and send Long to the
senate.
Heed Has Uphill Fight.
Advices received in Washington
from the Missouri battle ground are
to the effect that Reed, stumping
every corner of the state with a
circus tent, has been conducting an
uphill fight. The odds against him
several months ago appeared al
most insuperable. His qualities as
a stump orator and campaigner
. have enabled him to make gains, it
is generally admitted, and latest re
ports are that the outcome is in ex
treme doubt. But colleagues in the
senate, republican and democrat al
most to a man, are pulling for his
renomination. It is no secret that
many republicans would like to see
him re-elected.
In West Virginia Senator Suther
land is having a hard tussle for re
nomination with H. C. Ogden in the
republican primaries. On the demo
cratic side, Mr. Izetta Jewell
Brown, a gifted young widow and
formerly a well-known actress, is
campaigning -in lively fashion
against ex-Representative M. M.
freely.
MIhm Alice Expects to" Win.
Senator Swanson, one of the
democratic leaders in the senate, is
contesting for renomination against
ex-Governor Westmoreland Davis,
in ; Virginia. As in many other
states south of the Mason and
Dixon line, nomination on the
democratic ticket is the equivalent
to election in Virginia.
Interest is also being shown in
the , Okiahoma primaries, where
Representative Alice Robertson is
up for renomination. Miss Alice has
sent word to Washington - that she
expects to win.

noble, beloved nation" at a distance.
Mr. Cox told the pontiff that on
the occasion of his elefcion as- pope
many persons in America had re
marked, when they saw his portrait
printed irl the papers, that he looked
like an American, . this being the
highest compliment, in the minds of
Americans, tthey could pay -a for
eigner Pope Pius laughed at. this
and seemed tremendously pleased.
Later Pope Pius inquired of Mr.
Cox concerning the situation in the
United etates. He expressed himself
as "profoundly interested in the
welfare and progress of the Ameri
can people, who, he said, constituted
uch an important factor in the de
velopment of the world. The inter
view ended by the pope imparting
t'.ie apostolic benediction.

Obituary.
Pontif Laughs When Told People
in United States Said He
Looked Like American.
ROME, July 30. (By the Associ
ated Press.) Pope Pius today re
ceived in audience James M. Cox, ex
governor of Ohio and democratic
candidate for president of the United
States in the last campaign. The
visit was of such a duration that the
Vatican officials called it "a pri
vate interview."
Mr. Cox was accompanied by his
son, James M. Jr., Judge Timothy
Ansberry, of Washington, and Ern
est Rice of Dayton.
The Americans were received at
noon. All of them wore evening
dress and white ties, according to
Vatican etiquette. The elaborate
papal ceremonial attended the recep
tion. Papal gendarmes stood at at
tention and Swiss guards presented
arms as the Americans were taken
to the throne room, where the noble
and palatin guards were In attend
ance. Monsignor Vignale, one of the
Pope's chamberlains, introduced the
party into the papal "secret ante
chamber.''
Here the pontiff, who was dressed
entirely in white, the only color
shown being his gold chain holding
.tne pectoral cross, advanced,
stretched out his arms and bade his
kneeling visitors to rise. He then
took them into his private study.
Pone Pius exDressed nleasure at
receiving Mr. Cox and his party. He
said he regretted that he had been
unable to satisfy his cherished de
sire to visit the United States. He
said that he certainly- would have
crossed the seas to America had it
not been for his election to the pon
tificate. Now he said that he- -must

NATIONAL, Wash., July 30. ;
(Special.) Levi Brazil Gosa, who
was born January 3, 1848, in Par
rish La., died last Tuesday at the
' home of his son
w1 m&mn hr Mr. Gosa
srossed the plains

ter, Nancy Tur
pin, who 'passed
away three years
igo, and settled
3n a donation
claim in Columbia
;oupty near Scap
poose, Or., where
he resided for
many years. He
was married - to
Margaret Lousignont October 30,
1875, at Forest Grove, Or. S&e died
in 1912. To -this union were born
11 children, who survive him.

Charley developed a stiff neck, but
he managed to extract quite a bit of
enjoyment from the proceedings.
The wedding1 ceremony brought
together a remarkable assemblage
of screen stars. The minister ad
dressed them as Alarilynn Reynolds
Carter and John C. Pickford, but
their fellow stars called' them Ma
rilynn Miller and "Jack." " It may
not be generally known that this is
the second marriage for each of
them. Marilynn was formerly the
wife of Frank Carter, an actor, to
whom she was married in 1919. He
was killed in an automobile accident
in Maryland in May, 1920. About
the same time Olive Thomas, wife of
Pickford, committed suicide in a
Paris hotel.
Mr. and Mrs. Pickford plan . to
spend their honeymoon at Del Monte
and Lake Tahoe, California, until
September 1, when Mrs. Pickford
plans to return east and resume her
role in "Sally." - Word from the east,
however, indicates that another girl
has been engaged by Ziegfeld to
take the place of his rebellious star.
Under her contract,. Marilynn was
not to marry for five years and also
provides that "Sally" cannot be
staged with any one but Marilynn.
Thus Ziegfeld is handling a two
edged sword. He may put another
girl in Marilynn's place, but in that
event he is open to suit for dam
ages through the clause in the con
tract which makes Marilynn the
only star. She is to get a percent
ageof the gross receipts, which has
averaged well more than $3500 a
week. Notwithstanding this Income
it was recently stated by her physi
cian in Boston that Marilynn was
reduced 'to less than a hundred
pounds.
Many congratulatory telegrams
were received. The wedding was
originally scheduled to take place
September 1, but was hastened it
was said, because of the row be
tween Marilynn and Ziegfeld. Mari
lynn's physician in Boston recently
gave out a statement that she was a
total nervous wreck, and wbuld not
be able to marry by September 1,
and also, that she must exercise the
.utmost care or fall a victim to tu
berculosis.
Her appearance today, however,
shows that he must have had some
one else in mind when he made the
dire prediction.
A cablegram was received from
Flo Ziegfeld tonight. It read:
"Much happiness." ,

will not rebuild the bill, but may

CHICAGO, July 3 Miss Evan
Burrows Fontaine's presentation of
what may lightly be termed "the
case against Cornelius Vanderbilt
Whitney," might be1 called "the hunt
for the 33 letters."
It was alleged that there are 33
letters in existence; that they were
written by Mr. Whitney; and that
their possession' has aroused rare
energy, and resourcefulness. - Inci
dents include intercepted telegrams,
rifled baggage, a secret tunnel.
eavesdropping, - dictaphones, pur
loined letters, politics, and finally
an alleged clandestine offer of
$10,000, which at present remains
unaccepted, while the letters repose
In a Chicago safety deposit box, in
the name of a person, who does not
exist. '
The letters were alleged to have
been written by young Whitney to
Miss Fontaine in 1919 and 1920
during the several months when
they are said to have been motor
ing between New York and New
Haven on week-end holidays, and
before young Whitney's father,
Harry Payne - Whitney, . is reported
to have been advised of the upshot
of these romantic trysts and brought
them to an abrupt conclusion.
Letters Mostly Boyish. '
For the most part the missives
were described as boyish effusions,
protestation of deathless love, in
terspersed with gossip of Yale- atn
letic and social events, comments on
the latest books and newspaper stor
ies. One of them written by young
Whitney on a train enroute from
New York to. New Haven i quoted
as follows:
"I can. hear the old wheels rum
Wing over the track and every time
they go around they tell me they
are taking me farther and farther
away from you. I wish I could
stop them, dear. I wish I could go
back."
The, packet also contains, accord
ing to report, a photograph of young
Whitney and Miss Fontaine, taken
In one of the studios that flank
surf avenue at Coney Island. The
young man whose father is one of
the leading horsemen in America is
depicted by the camera holding the
lines over a papier-mache donkey,
while Miss Fontaine sits smiling be
side him in the camouflage cart.
Hotel Register Photographed.
But the most important document
in the portfolio is said to be a pho
tographic reproduction of the regis
ter of a New Haven hotel, where
a "Mr. and Mrs. Crane of New York"
sojourned at the same time that
young Whitney and Miss Fontaine
were making their weekly pil
grimages in the former's roadster
through the New England hills.
All of this evidence, including the
letters and the photographs of the
hotel register are now in the cus
tody of Leslie H. Whipp, an attor
ney, who was Miss Fontaine's orig
inal counsel. But Mr. Whipp today
explained that none could detect the
documents in his possession since he
had hidden them in a safety deposit
vault under an assumed name.
