but on the request of the brother it
was postponed until tomorrow
morning.
Leslie Anthony came to Council
Bluffs, Sunday afternoon, February
23, and was brought to the police
station by an officer, who found him
writhing in pain as "he staggered
along the street. City Physician
Kelly diagnosed the trouble as acute
appendicitis. Anthony was taken
to the Edmundson hospital in the
police ambulance and underwent an
operation that evening. He made
no attempt to conceal his identity,
but asked to have his relatives com
municated with at once. He re
mained in the hospital until dis
charged. He told the police and
newspaper men that he was on his
way to Quincy, and appeared great
ly distressed by the interruption.
Anthony Denies Marriage.
Anthony denies having married
the yourrg woman. He insists that
he does not even know her, to say
nothing of having taken her hand
and heart in marriage.
Has the sergeant ' suffered a
lapse of memory?" the Council
Bluffs police are asking. "Did An
thony go through the ceremony and
then forget all about it?"they are
wondering.
" The "young- woman from Quincy
told : Chief Eberstein of the Om
aha police that she met Ser
geant ' Anthony overseas, where
she served as a Red Cross nurse.
When Anthony returned to the
states he went to Quincy, slt al
leges, and then they agreed to go
to St. Joseph, where they married
on February 13. this year, according
to the certificate she holds.
Promised to Return.
She also charges that a few days
after their, marriage Anthony went
away according to an agreement
that he would return to Quincy en
March 16, her birthday anniversary.
She had prepared a dinner on her
birthday,' expecting to be joined by
her "husband." Gladness over the
prospective return of Anthony, was
turned to sadness when a letter was
received, written by "H. W. Ways,"
stating that Anthony bad been kill
ed in an automobile ' accident 30
miles ('west of Omaha.
Investigation proved that the ac
cident was a myth and that An
thony was much alive. His arrest
followed. .
Anthony is said to have a wife
and three children in Minneapolis.

FIX AMOUNT OF
REPARATION" TO
BE PAID BY HUNS
Change in Terms Reported at
Request of Lloyd George.
Following Results of Hull
By-Election.
Paris, Aprifl4. Germany under
the peace treaty must pay $5,000,000,
000 in cash or the equivalent in com
modities' before May 1, 1921. It
must also issue immediately to the
allied and associated governments
$20,090,000,000, of interest-bearing
.bonds.
The interest on the bonds until
1926 will be either 2 or 3 per cent,
and after that date will be S percent,
according to the present plan.
The bonds will be payable in in
stallments during a period of IS
years. They probably will be kept
in the control of a central commis
sion of the allied and associated
governments so they shall not be
marketed in quantities sufficient to
break the price.
Germany also must obligate itself
to pay other amounts for damage
done, appropriate to its means, to be
determined by. a mixed commission
of representatives of the allied and
associated governments and of Ger
many, which shall report before
May 1, 1921.
Expressed In Marks.
It is 'in the gold mark that all pay
ments are expressed in the final
terms. This excludes depreciated
paper marks and fixes the standard
of payment in gold. The gold mark
is worth about the same as the Eng
lish shilling and before the war was
quoted at 23.82 American cents.'
The allotment. of the 100,000,000,
000 marks among the allied and as
sociated powers has not yet been
finally decided, but a tentative ar
rangement makes the allotment of
France about 55 per cent of the
total; Great Britain's allotment be
tween 20 and 30 per cent and the
allotment of the United States be
tween two and five per cent.
The text of the opening clause of
the terms whereby Germany is
held generally responsible, reads
substantially as follows:
"The, allied and associated pow
ers affirm and Germany admits re
sponsibility for all losses and dam
ages of the allied and associated
governments jnd their nationals
from the unjustifiable warfare waged
by the enemy power against the
allied and associated governments."
Then follows a provision for the
commission on payments, and ex
tended details of the operations of
the commission.
Summary of Conditions.
In view of the fluctuations through
which the negotiations have passed,
an authoritative statement was ob
tained today concerning the final
terms of the settlement. This sums
up the conditions as follows:
"Germany is at the outset held
generally responsible for losses and
damages in accordance with Presi
dent Wilson's 14 points and the
allied response at the time the
armistice was concluded. To de
termine the extent of the payment
under this responsibility a com
mission is set up to take testimony,
assemble data and arrange all de
tails of the payments from the en
emy and' distribution among the
allied and associated powers,
While the commission will ad
minister th details of the payments,
sufficient is known to permit the
determination that an initial pay
ment will be required of 20,000,000,-
000 gold marks, payable in two
years without interest. It has also
been determined that 40,000,000,000
gold marks shall be payable in bonds
extending over a period of 30 years,
beginning 1921, with a sinking fund
beginning in 1926. ,
Rates of Interest;
These 40,000,000,000 marks draw
2Vj per cent interest from 1921 to
1926 and 5 per cent interest after
1926 ,
In addition to the foregoing pay
ments Germany also will be .required
to deliver additional bonds for 40,
000,000,000 marjes when the commis
sion determines that this shall le
done. These three payments of 20,
000,000,000, 40,000,000,000, and 40,000,
000,000 marks brings the total to
100,000,000,000 gold marks.
Beyond this total the commission
is empowered to fix anything fur
ther that may be required to cover
Germany's indebtedness.
"In other words," concluded the
eminent American authority who
framed the terms and furnished the
foregoing summary, "a commission
is set up with power to collect from
Germany to the utmost of , her
capacity to pay, within the limita
tion of her indebtedness."

Transportation of intoxicating
liquors for beverage purposes
through a dry state is not prohibited
under the Reed prohibition amend
ment, the supreme' court held today
in an opinion interpreting that act

ceedings. resulting from the arrest
of Homer uudger, at Lynchburg,
Va., under the law while en route
on a passenger tram from Balti

federal district court dismissed the
indictment against him, holding in
effect that although carried across a
state, intoxicants are not trans
ported into" the state if their ulti
mate destination is a point beyond
the limits of that state.
Word from Washington yesterday
morning that the United btates su
preme court has just handed
down a decision that intoxicating
liquor could be shipped consigned
from one wet state to another and
pass through a prohibition state
without violating the Reed amend
ment, was received by the lew en

appointment. '
Bootleggers and shippers of liquor
on the other hand received the news
with iov and thanksgiving.
It is pointed out that whisky, and
even beer and wines will pass un-
molested through Omaha enroute
from wet points in Missuri to
Minnesota.
Cannot Prove Charges.
"It will be next to impossible to
prove a charare of illegal possession
against those who are arrfsted for
having intoxicating liquor in their
gnos.' it was said by a representa
tive of Gus Hyers' office. "All that
a bootlegger will have to do is to
Claim that he is taking the stuff
from one wet state to another, and
it will not be possible to convict
him for illegal possession or illegal
transportation.
The only activity the "booze

under the ruling of the supreme
court, is to camp on the trails of
the wholesale bootleggers ' who
bring their cargoes direct to dry
states and unload to their cus
tomers, it was said.

"All of the Consignments which

said, "will, of course, be enroute

Hope for Republic
"A Tokio official statement de
clared Korean propagandists were
spreading bolshevism in Korea. To
this, it is enough to answer that the
declared hopes of the Independent
leaders is for a republic, based on
models of Christian governments as
indicated in the declaration of in
dependence. The 33 religious lead
ers who signed the document stand
Mor democratic principles but against
bolshevism. They favor the Amer
ican form of government. Their
ideals are well known.
"Further, it is of record that 500
Koreans fought on the allied side in
Russia before the bolsheviki came
into power, but they have not and
will not fight with the bolsheviki.
Koreanssoffered to fight against the
bolsheviki, but not under Japanese
leadership. The non-resistance
movement is in principle opposed to.
bolshevik doctrine. Peaceful prin
ciples of the Koreans are expressed
in the declaration of independence.
"The principles of the Korean in

posite of bolshevism. They are the
principles of Christianity. Koreans
are confident of the justice of their

of the large hotels of the city-consumers
have been known to pay as
much as $15 a pint. A man whose
pocketbook has felt the strain of
these top notch prices fairly ex
claimed when told of the word re
ceived from Washington.
Will Reduce Prices.
"It will make prohibition more of
a joke than ever," he said. "The
bootleggers will have an easy row
to hoe now. They will be able to
get -good s'tuff in unlimited quan
tities, and of course the price will
be greatly reduced. It will seem
like old times again to get good
drinking whisky at a price which
has been not only pocketbook
wrecking but heart breaking.'?
A business man, who would not
allow the use o.' his name, asserted
the belief that this was the begin
ning of the first chapter of the last
days of prohibition. "I have no
ticed the reaction approaching for,
sometime," he said. "I believe now
it is here. Prohibition has proven
to i the thinking pecplc of Omaha
tha't it will not prohibit. It has
been weighed in the balances and
found wanting. I dc not- care to
