ENTIRE CREW OF SCHOONER DISAPPEARS Vessel Robbed of Liquor, Crew Killed by Rum Pirates, Ex planation Given—Towed to Port by U. S. Cutter. ■ ■ - ■ — —* ^ Universal Service. New York, April 15.—A boot leggers’ battle, in which the entire crew of a big two masted schooner was probably slain, and a sizable cargo of rum pirated, is an explana tion offered following finding of the mysterious ship Sunday. The schooner, abandoned with its sails set and its anchors out, was dis covered Sunday two miles southeast of Whistling Buoy, off Point Outlet, and boarded by Capt. J. M. Ryan, of the United States coast guard cutter Manhattan. Captain Ryan found the deck of the schooner strewn with evidences of a terrific battle. Hundreds of empty cartridges gave testimony of the battle which had raged aboard. It is believed that every man aboard the schooner when it was at tacked was killed. Indications were plentiful that the boat had been engaged in the rum running industry between Nova Scotia, Nassau and Cuba and New York and the New Jersey coast, but no liquor was found on board. On the deck was found lashed an ex ceptionally seaworthy motorboat, well equipped, upon the stearn of which was painted the name "Maid of Canada, La Have, Nova Scotia.” On the stern of the schooner was the original name, Edith Helen Bush, with no port of hail discernible. Over this was painted “Patricia Behan.” Lloyds' register fails to list this name. The nearest approach to it is the Pa trician Behan, which left Halifax on November 17 for Nassau and has not been officially reported since. roo Docnes rounu. In the captain’s cabin on the table was found a box containing about a thousand cartridges and indica tions that some one had helped him self hurriedly to them. No weapons were found on board. In the crews quarters in the fore castle were found clothes which ap pear to indicate that the schooner’s complement of men was between 10 and 15, all of whom, including the master, have disappeared without leaving a’ trace. Scattered about the floor of the master's cabin were found several leaves wrhich had been torn from a notebook, and these related to the whisky smuggling enterprise in which the schooner was engaged. Last Entry April 10. There was a memorandum relating to the sale of 3,918 cases of whisky to a mysterious “Ralph,” although there was nothing to show whether this was the name of a man or a boat. There also were scribbled de tails of other transactions, the last entry being on Tuesday, April 1C.

Irreconcilable Senators Ad vance Arguments U. S. Entry to Court Means Entering League. BY JAMES R. NOURSE, Universal Service Correspondent Washington, April 13.—The presi ient and those who support him in the proposal to make the United States a member of the world court of the League of Nations will find it difficult to convince the Senate that membership in the court does not take the United Suites into the league. This is the opinion expressed here Friday by irreconcilable senators who fought the league and are preparing to fight the court proposal. "There may or may not be sound reasons for going into the league, but no one can sustain the contention that by going into this caurt we do not get into the league,” one senator said. Summary of Arguments. ■ The arguments as to why member ship in the court involves adherence to the league are thus briefly stated by a senator who has studied the plan of organization. 1. The court is created by the league. '*2. The members of the court are sleeted by the league. 3. Vacancies In the court are filled by the league. i 4. The court has no existence, and can have no exlstenpjie except upon the Initiative of the league. 6.—To say that a body which can only exist by virtue of another body Is not a part of the creating body and that you do not go into the creating body when you join the body created by it will not satisfy the people of this country. Gives Advice to League. 6— The court is paid by the league, calls upon it for counsel and advice, and the court is bound to give that counsel and advice. 7— If the league asks the court for counsel upon a very important vital matter, and the United States, as a member, of the court, Joins in giving that adivice, the United States will be bound by the action of the league and morally bound to carry out the pro gram of the league. Despite this arrangement, many supporters of the court proposal insist that the United States would not have anything to do with the League of Nations if it became a member of the court Sweeping Changes Expected to Follow Denby’s Return From Visit to Fleet—To Relieve Jones? Washington, April 13 (A. P.)— Sweeping changes in the high com mand of the American navy are ex pected to follow Secretary Denby’s return today from his visit to the fleet.

HARRIS, Universal Service Correspondent. Washington, April 12.—President Harding and President Obregon, of Mexico, are in personal communica tion with each other regarding the establishment of .a joint Mexican- ■ American commission to smooth out the difficulties standing in the way ef recognition of the southern repub lic. Successful consummation of the negotiations would mark the longest step towards restoration of full dip lomatic relations taken since the Ob regon regime came into power In i Mexico. Opinion oh both sides of the ' border is declared to be highly op- , timistic that if such a body were named recognition would be assured. Students of the Mexican situation, like John Hays Hammond, believe ! the mixed commission plcn offer* a most satisfactory means of solving the conflicts and controversies exist ing between the two countries, Which are declared to have been overem phasized through the fact they have been standing so long. «rncie £.( oig UDStacis. The principal task of the proposed commission obviously would be to work out some formula by which the oyection the state department raises with regard to article 27 of the Mex ican constitution would bo removed. This provision, incorporated when Carranza rewrote the constitution in 1917, undertakes to vest solely in the Mexican government sub-soil, or oil and mineral rights. In all lands In the country. American interests owning oil and mining properties in Mexico con strued this article as retroactive and, therefore, confiscatory. The state department backed up this view' and has declined to permit recognition pending a clearing up of this appre hension. President Obergon and the Mexican government from the beginning, have taken the position that the consti tutional provision was not ratroaotlve and made this statement In formal communications to the American gov ernment. Secretary Hughes, how ever, first demanded that such as surance be formally written into a treaty as a condition of recognition. This was refused. Not Retroactive Court Holds. The Mexican supreme court then handed down a decision in a test case declaring the article was not retroactive. k The contention was raised here then that under the Mex ican judicial system five decisions were necessary to establish a bind ing precedent. Four additional deci sions in test cases were rendered. Still the state department was not satisfied. Recently there has been proposed and is now under consideration in the Mexican congress a petroleum bill carrying an Interpretation of article 27 designed to satisfy the American government. Whether the provision will be adopted and, If so, whether it would satisfy the state department still are in the realm of speculation. Who initiated the exchange of messages between the two presidents or just how far the matter has pro gressed to date was not disclosed here. It was quite definitely asserted that an agreement had not yet been reached. It was ascertained, how ever, that this government is aware that President Obregon has invoked the aid of several Mexican jurists whom he likely has in mind for rep resentation on the proposed com mission. It was pointed out In official cir cles that such a plan would be in entire harmony with the policy of the Harding administration to settle vexing international questfftns by conference. Besides the constitutional obstacle, those familiar with the Mexican sit uation, suggested a joint commission undoubtedly would take up the claims held by each government against the other and which have not been agreed upon, and other contro versies. This is now being done in the case of the claims against Ger many growing out of the world war --- ♦ -- Dog to Solicit Humane Funds on Streets Saturday < He’s a large St. Bernard dog.
