tectives were told.
O'Connor was under sentence to
liani? Thursday for the murder of
Paddy O'Neill, a policeman. The
hangman's -noO.se, black cap and
white shroud that had been prepared
for Tommy were laid away last
night.

O'Connor's sweetheart, have failed
She is the wife of an escaped con

nor in getting away after the mur
der. Companions Released.
Four women and a man, former
boon companions of O'Connor, who
were arrested early yesterday morn
ing, were released after being ques
tioned by the authorities. Chief of
Detectives Hughes said he was con
vinced they did not know where
O'Connor was hiding.
. There was a rumor tonight that
O'Connor would surrender after the
dato of execution haf passed. His
lawyers refused to discuss this phase
of the case. They admitted, how
ever, that plans to carry O'Connor's
case to the United States supreme
court were going ahead just as
though the condemned man was still
in prison.
Twelve Guards Discharged.
Investigation of the escape con
tinued yesterday. David Strauss,
the guard directly in charge of
O'Connor when he made his escape,
was being held under arrest. Rec
ords at the psychopathic laboratory
&howed that Strauss had been exam

pronounced a "chronic alcoholic
with a mentality, just one grade
above feeble mindedness."
Sheriff refers announced that 12
jail guards who were on duty when
O'Connor escaped had been dis
charged. Two other prisoners who escaped
with O'Connor have not been recap
tured. Congressman Suicide

Washington, Dec. 16. The house
adjourned today until tomorrow out
of respect of Representative John
Elston, California, whose, body was

founded at his death, were unable to
ascribe any motive for Mr. Elston'9
act except that he' had become de
pressed over the refusal of congress
to authorize construction of a naval
base at Alameda, located in his dis
trict. Close friends of Mr. Elston today
declared that the note he left had
not been correctly deciphered. As
given out last night, the note de
dared that Mr. Elston was "in a
chain of circumstances that spell
ruin, although my offense was inno
cently made in the beginning." The
words deciphered as "offense" and,
"innocently,- his associates declared,
were "really "offer" and "uncondi
tionally," making the phrase read:
"Although my offer was uncondi
tionally niade in the beginning."
Another error was -made, it was
declared today, in reading "people"
for "project" in the sentence: "My
staying means embarrassment to my
district and to a worthy project
clean and generous."
The correct interpretation, Mr. El
stcn's friends asserted, gave weight
to the belief that the Alameda project
was uppermost in his mind."

THE HOUSE THAT
By HAZEL BLAIR.
St. Louis, Mo Dec. 16 Here's
ttic story of "the house that thrift
built."
Misses Hazel and Mildred Evans,
employed by a local telephone com
pany, had "day dreams" of a cozy
little bungalow. They wanted a fire
place that would burn big log's and
they wanted a big yard for a nifty
lawn. f '
And so economy came into their
lives. Deprivations accompanied
realisation of the "house dream."
And here 5s how the building of
"Hazelen" started:
First, the two girls constructed a
garage on the third of an acre that
was theirs. ..This scrved as a pre
mature home, while nickels and
dimes went each week to the sav
ing bank for "the house fund."
. Will If. Hays' Postoffice depart
ment came in to help thrift build
this home. Arrangements were
made through the mails for the pur
chase, on the instalment plan,

tty The Aom-Utmt Trees.
WashiiiRton, Dee. 16. A tentative
agreement to return the Kuo-C'how
Tsmanfu railway in Shantung to
China within nine months was
reached today during the conversa
tion between Japanese and Chinese
delegates. An agreement was also
bcintr approached on other points
Boncerninir the mode of payment, it
was said by the Chinese.
It was decided that the mad
should be paid for i installments, but
no decision was rea,hed on the
period over which 5J.Ot,000 gold
German mark, ,thc price agreed
upon, would be .prcad.
The Chinese oiler to pay in cash,
made yesterday, was not accepted by
the Japanese and tlic Chinese count
ered with a proposal that payments
be completed within two or three
yearn, making the time as short as
possible. The Japanese, according; to
a Chinese delegate tonight, said this
time was too short and suggested
what to the Chinese seemed 'a very
lonsr term.' ... , ,
The sudden turning back of tne
railway, the Japanese are understood
to have said, would adversely affect
Japanese trade interests. China will
not borrow any money from Japan
with which to meet the payments, the
Chinese said, nor will any loan be
negotiated.
Mr. Ilanihara of the Japanese
delegation, after the meeting said:
'We are steadily coming forward
to, a satisfactory settlement on the
questions under discuss!on."

who has been interested in prosecut

in a letter by Leon Frascr, acting
director, that under the provisions
of the Sweet bill, the war risk in
surance bureau was engaged in do
centralizing district No. 9, embrac
ing the states of Nebraska, Iowa,
Kansas and Missouri, and that all
active and pending compensation
claims in that district are being
withdrawn from the files of the cen
tral office and dispatched to the rs
gional office at St. Louis.
"This will prevent l?.e "bureau at
Washington taking any further ac
tion on claims," said Mr. Fraser,
"and it will be impossible to an
swer inriuiries concerning such claims
until after the cases have been re
ceived by and properly arranged in
the St. Louis office.
"It is believed that the St. Louis
regional office will be in a position
to take action on these claims and
answer inquiries concerning them
about December 24."
The decentralization of the central
office with reference to the war risk
insurance is in line with the ex

First Setback From Briand.
' It wits pointed out in some quar
ti-r that tlie first direct setback to
the Washington conference calLvl
spcciiicauy ior inc purpoc oi reduc
ing and limiting armamenti had
come with I'remirr Briand' asser
tion of the French view at to land
forces and its reason for maintain
ing and planning to continue to main
tain the greatest army in the world.
All talk of an agreement bcre on
limitation of land forces stopped
with M. Briand's statement.
In his reply to Mr, Hughes' orig
inal naval proposals, however, M.
llriend wai understood by members
of the other delegations to have con
curred in the four principles under
lying the American plan. Appar
ently the French group has not re
garded M. Briand's statement to the
conference ns committing trance to
the American proposals, even in
principle.
Jean's desire for a 70 per cent
ratio as necessary for its national
security first brought up the sugges
tion that national needs, not existing
naval strength, determine naval
rclativctics. Japan finally agreed,
however, that the question of nation

power understanding on reductions

ed, however, the "national security"
plea for naval increases seems to
have been brought up again, tint time
by I' ranee.
Hope for Adjustment.
It is very certain that conference
ollicials generally do not believe
situation has arisen due to French
proposals which will ultimately
block the road to actual naval re
ductions. Whatever discouragement
any of them may feel at the pros
pect of prolonged committee wran
ales to bring about a satisfactory ad
justment of ratios for all five pow
ers, is tempered by greet nope that
an adjustment can be found and that
no such building programs for all
five as the unofficial disclosure of
France's attitude would indicate will
be necessary.
Both the United States and Japan
h-ve now on the ways, ships of more
than 40.000 tons and Great Britain
has ordered, but held uo work, on
four super-Hoods of 45,000 tons each.
If it should become necessary to re
vise upward the tonnage of each
power to permit France to build on
such a scale" as a 10-ship plan con
templates, the other three powers, it
was said, hardly would agree to
throw away all they have spent on
ships of 40,000 (nns or more Bint
slait building ,35,000 tenners instead.
Against Naval Holiday,
In other words, so far as it Is now
publicly understood, the French pto.'
poaal seems to strike directly at al
most every phase of the American
plan except the S-5-J ratio between
Great Britain, Japan and the United
States. Even the naval liol day would
be scrapped and there could remain
only the possibility of an agreement
Is) limit building at some future
point with vastly increased naval
forces all around.
The American delegates were in
session late today, presumably con
sidering the situation in the face of
the French proposals, but no state
