market in the years gone by. It was
not until yesterday that it was learned
that something had happened. It cam
then only with the announcement that
.Hitchcock was leaving for his summer
home and that Senator Swanson
Virginia, who heretofore has man!
rested no interest in the league of na
tions. was to take charge of the fight
in the senate.
M'llaoa Saabs Hitchcock.
Even to this minute ttve story has
not yet been published as to the man'
tier in which Senator Hitchcock, was
apparently openly snubbed on the floo
of the senate Thursday. The president
had concluded reading his message an
stepped down from the vice-president'
desk. As he walked away from the
desk . Senator Hitchcock left his seat
and walked toward the president. The
wvre only three feet apart and facing
each other when, suddenly, Mr. Wllso
wheeled to the right and grasped the
hand of Secretary Daniels.
Hitchcock had to pass around him to
reach the door of the senate lobby.
The Nebraskan passed by without rec
ognition and was not invited that day
to confer with the president at a meet
ing with other' senators who came to
tike orders.
IVew Senator Obeys President.
Senator Swanson. who succeeds Hitch
cock as league leader in the senate, Ira
never participated actively in senate
debates at any time and has never ex
hibited more than a passive Interest'in
the league of nations. He has simply
been regarded as one of those demo
crats who are for the league of nations
because Mr. Wilson wants it.
The denial given out by Secretary
Tumulty this afternoon will not be ac
cepted by any one honestly on the trail
of the facts because the news so far
published has been obtained from re
liable sources and is well authenticated.
And the babei of voices gossiping
over the Wilson-Hitchcock break h
drowned the noise of a bomb, meta-
pnoncany nropped dangerously near
the White House by Frank J. Hogan,
attorney for the Rigga National bank,
yesterday. In the hearings being held
by the senate committee on banking

the fitness or John Skelton Williams
for confirmation as controller of the
currency. i .
Baak'a Peraeentloa" Described.- "
In other words, the names of some
prominent relatives by marriage of
Mr. Wilson got into the hearings in a
manner to cause serious reflections on
the White House.
Mr. Hogan was attorney for the
Rlrgn bank when that institution was
under fire from Controller Williams
and Secretary McAdoo in He nar
rated the story of the "persecution" of
the bank carried on by Williams and
McAdoo, which both of the latter were
crlad to drop on agreement of the bank
not to press a suit against them.
The attorney told how the Federal
National bank of this city had been re
fused a deposit of emergency fleet
corporation funds because Hogan hap
pened to be a member of the board of
directors. In refusing a deposit Con
troller Williams, he said, frankly told
President John Poole, of the Federal
.National bank, that Mr. Hogan's con
nection was a bar to government de
posits on account of Mr. Hogan's re
tention as lawyer for the Riggs bank.
And then it was that the Boiling
family or. to be more explicit, the two
brothers of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, were
brought Into the hearing.
Attorney Te!laf Maaeavers.
Mr. Hogan testified that after Will
lams had positively refused to approve
the deposit of any emergency fleet cor
poration funds in the Federal bank on
the solo and exclusive ground that Mr.
Hogan was a member of the board of
directors, that President Poole of the
Federal was called on the telephone by
the I'hoonlx National bank of New
York, of which at that time Holfe Boil
ing was a vice-president, and was in
formed that if the Federal would de
posit 1 1 00.000 with the Phoenix bank In
New York the Phoenix bank would see
to it that the Federal bank received at
least f 300.000 of emergency fleet cor
poration deposits.
"And at that very time," ejaculated
Mr. Hogan. with emphasis. "Mr. Ran
dolph Boiling, brother of Rolfe Boil
ing was an assistant to the disbursing
officer of the emergency fleet corpora

Immediately went to Controller Will

his refusal to approve the Federal Na
