New York, Sept. 8. The trial of Harry M. Daugherty, former attorney! general, and Thomas W. Miller, one-' time alien property custodian, charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, started off at a rapid pace Tuesday. j Five hours after Federal Judge Mack convened court, to hear the gov-j ernment's evidence of alleged malfeas ance and bribe accepted, the 12 men, who will decide the guilt or innocence ' of Daugherty and Miller, were select-1 ed and sworn. Court adjourned with the government ready to call its first wittness. The jurors are: Alfred Mr Well, manager of a box factory; Edwin L. Edgerly, retired post office clerk; John H. Boschen, merchant; Frederick P. Todd, solici tor; Julius Conn, superintendent of a' washing powder factory; Murray R. White, salesman; Clifton C. Easter-' brooks, sales engineer; Henry G. Sameth, vermin exterminator; Henry Van Ost, insurance broker; Howard L. Tigher, mechanical engineer; James E. Toale, insurance agent, and l Loren S. Wells, railroad electrical su perintendent. Although the jury was selected- airli'cr Mi o n attArnava lm1 nTltifirvt-' ed, 40 talesmen were examined before the task was completed. Five were ex-j cused whn they asserted thy had formed opinions of guilt or innocence from reading newspaper reports of the case. One talesman in reply to an in direct question, said he was convinced of the guilt of Daugherty and Miller. Neither defendant seemed to notice this assertion. Another prospective Juror, who said he had been a member of the New York stock exchange for 13' vears. told United States Attorney Buckner. who is directing the prose- cution, that he had a "preconceived remember some 8 years back when opinion" of the case formed by Wall) they were entertained by one of the street gossip he heard in 1921. Ife( greatest singers they weA ever priv also was excused. ileged to hear. At that time Chief Daugherty and Miller were in the courtroom early. Daugherty, dressed, in a blue serge suit, sat most of the day in silence. He did not turn once to stare at the crowd that filled the courtroom beyond seating capacity. He would now and then hold whisper ed coferences with Max D. Steuer, noted New York criminal attorney, his counsel and he chewed gum con stantly. As talesman after talesman was called, Daugherty, who for years di rected the machinery of criminal pros ecution, watched the present proced ure with dignity and composure. Many in the crowd seemed to sense the drama of a situation that placed a former adviser of presidents of the United States on trail. They craned their necks to get a glimpse of him, but he sat complacently slumped for ward in his chair and took only a seeming casual interest in what trans pired. Fear Ban on Romance; Boy and Girl Dead Young Kearney Couple Leave Note Asking Burial in Single Grave. Kearney, Neb., Sept. 7. Apparent ly fearful that there might be some parental objection to their contem plated marriage, Pearle Waite, 16-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Waite, and Earnest Miller, 18, soni of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Millar, drew up a suicide pact and ended tneir lives with a .38 caliber automatic revolver. A note left by the two expressed a desire that they be buried in one gra ve. The bodies were found about 9 a. m., today in a rented car in a ravine near the Kearney Country club grounds and the gun, with two cham b'ers empty, was found nearby. Bullets entering the right temple of each nau killed the two whose, bodies lay side bv side. Whether Miller first shot the girl and then killed himself or if each fired the fatal shots still remains to lie determined The couple left a party of friends after 11 o'clock last night apparently in the best of spirits. During Monday, Miller had called on his friends, bid ding them goodby in anticipation of leaving this morning for Chicago ana later to attend the University of Illin ois. U'nenas say mere was numing iu indicate depression or contemplated suicide. The note which was found in Mil ler's inside pocket did not throw any licht.on the tragedy, merely request ing a double funeral at a certain church and burial in a single grave.

London Of the 1,400,000 refu gees at present in Greece, 622, S65 have been settled in towns and on the land by the Lague of Nations Refugee Settlement Commission, ac cording to its latest quarterly re port to the League Council. About half the refugees, therefore, have not as yet received any assistance from the commission, which has been pre vented by lack of funds from extend ing the work of settlement. In anticipation of the possibility of the Greek government applying to the League of Nations for an ad ditional loan, the commission esti mates that 5,000,000 would be required to extend existing installa tions and to settle a minimum of 28,000 new families. Of this sum 2,200,000 is wanted for repairs to a large number of Turkish and Bul garian houses; erection of new dwellings for refugees at present housed in improvised shelters; the purchase of flocks and herds for re fugees settled on the frontiers and in the mountain districts; the execu tion of a large number of minor op erations connected with the drainage of marshes in the neighborhood of villages, and purchases of animals for plowing. Of the remaining 2,800.000 800,d00 would be used to settle a minimum of 8000 new agricultural families, and 2,000,000 for the set tlement of 20,000 new urban families. This last sum also includes the erec tion of new quarters for the numer ous families for whom no accommo dation is available, and who are still living in the large towns under de plorable conditions.

Golfers Get Lined Up for the Tournament Qualifying Bounds Are Played Sun day and Monday by Local Golf ers With Good Scores. From Tuesday's ually Labor Day, the second of the quali fying rounds in the local club cham pionship brought out even some of the most prominent and busy busi ness men.
