City Attorney LaRoche Inves
tigating Moral Obligation.
COUNCIL HEARS BONDSMAN
Resolutions Authorizing Appoint
xnent of Committee to Investigate
Dealings Iaid on Table,
Action by the city council in con
bectlon with claims filed by bonds
men of Hans Pederson, who con
etructed the public auditorium, was
delayed yesterday when City Attor
ney LaRoche announced that his of
fice was now searching- to learn if
the city Is empowered to adjust a
moral obligation.
The report on this question will not
be completed for several days, and
action will be deferred until such
time, it was announced. Two resolu
tions authorizing and directing: the
city council to appoint a committee
of five to Investigate the dealings
between the city and Hans Pederson
in connection with the construction
of the Auditorium were laid on the
table.
City Attorney Objects.
One resolution was introduced by
Mayor Baker, but City Attorney La
Roche contended that its adoption by
the city council might weaken the
city's position in the event of future
litigation. The other introduced by
Commissioner Barbur is alrjost identi
cal with the mayor's resolution, ex
cept that it gives the committee
power to subpena witnesses and foroe
them to given sworn testimony.
During the discussion. Commission
er Bigelow, who is opposed to the
appointment of the arbitration com
mi t tee, or settlement of any part of
the claim, announced that he wished
to interrogate certain persons before
the city council and said he was cer
tain that when he concluded no mem
ber of the council would be willing
to appoint a committee or allow an;
part of the claim.
Oae of Bondsmea Interrogated.
X. F. Schanen, one of the bonds
men, was called and asked if L. It
Hoffman, who was in charge of the
work at the Auditorium, representing
the city, had not told him that the
work was not progressing satisfac
torily and that Schanen should pro
tect himself.
'Mr. Hoffman never told me any
thing: of the sort," said Mr. Schanen.
'I had a few conversations with Mr.
Hoffman, but, as a matter of -fact
my attorneys had advised me that be
cause of changes in the construction,
demanded by the city, I was not lia
ble." "I don't see that this has any bear
ing on the case," said Mayor Baker.
"What Mr. Hoifman might have said
had nothing to do with the losses
sustained in the construction of the
building. As a matter of fact, J. C
Bayer was appointed by the creditors
to handle the work after a certain
point in the proceedings, so anything
Mr. Schanen might have done would
not have altered the case.
Mr. Schanen - $30,000, He Says.
Commissioner Bigelow attempted,
without success, to force Mr. Schanen
to admit that certain persons were
paid to obtain him as a bondsman.
Mr. Schanen admitted that he was
offered the contract for the marble
work in the event that he signed as
a bondsman, but be said he had not
gained any profit from this work, as
J&OOO still remained unpaid."
"What will you stand to lose, Mr.
Schanen, if the city does not pay
these claims?' asked Commissioner
Bigelow.
"Approximately $50,000, exclusive of
the money due me for materials which
I furnished, which I have not
eluded in this estimate, answered the
bondsman.
"Will failure of the city to pay you
these claims break you, Mr. Schanen?
asked Commissioner Bigelow.
"I do not believe that question Is a
proper one," said Mayor Baker, thus
cutting; oil tne questioning along tnis
line.

MiHerand Tones Down Reply
of Lloyd George.
U. S. WITHDRAWAL FEARED
French Seek Wilson's Opinions Be
fore Acting on Settlement of
Jugo-Slav-Italy Case.
(Copyright by the New York World. Pub
lished by Arrangement.)
PARIS, Feb. 18. (Special.) France
will not approve a final settlement
or the Adriatic question in any lorm
without the concurrence of the United
States, it is authoritatively stated.
The reply of the allies to President
Wilson, which Premier Lloyd George
was reported to have drawn up on
the spur of the moment, is now said
to have undergone the most conserva
tive modifications. It was .not for
warded until Premier Millerand was
satisfied that it contained nbthmg to
irritate President Wilson further.
The World correspondent learns
that the note attempts to acquaint
President Wilson with the details of
all the negotiations that have been
going on to settle the Adriatic ques
tion since he left Paris, and to try
to convince him that conditions have
been changed by the changed opin
ions of the Italians and Jugo Slavs
themselves.
Wilson's Advice Sought.
The note will ask President Wilson
to consider .these facts and to try
with the allies to formulate a modi
fied solution satisfactory to all concerned.
After his return Premier Millerand
was in'constant communication with
London regarding the note and if any
thing had a cooling effect on Premier
Lloyd George's temper, it is under
stood to have been the more sane and
conservative course that Millerand
pursued. A high French official told
the World correspondent today:
Despite published denials from
Washington that President Wilson
threatened to withdraw from the af
fairs of Europe, the impression cre
ated in diplomatic circles certainly
has been that. It has caused the great
est uneasiness, because every student
of European conditions, especially
Frenchmen, realize that for the United
States to withdraw from Europe and
refuse to ratify the treaty would
throw the whole world Into chaos. The
United States is more important to
Europe than the settlement of the
Adriatic or any other question. That
ia the official viewpoint and that is
why there cannot be a final settle
ment of the Adriatic question with
out the accord of the United States."
French Policy, "Hands Off."
French officials also deny persist
ent reports that M. Jusserand, ambas
sador at Washington, has had in
structions from the French govern
ment to approve Lord Grey's letter.
They say France Is careful to avoid
the slightest appearance of mixing in
tbe internal politics of America. ,
In a word, conservative French
opinion, as in England, after more
sober consideration of the Adriatic
complications, has decided that the
United States must not be antago
nized to the point of disinteresting
itself from further European affairs.
Former Premier Clemenceau's paper,
L'Homme Libre, asks whether, after
President Wilson's intervention, the
premiers will persist In their policy
of January 20, and adds that if they
do not they could be forgiven if it
would mean America's return to ths
conference.
'America's help Is necessary to the
re-establishment of Europe," L'Homme
Libre adds. "It is possible that Presi
dent Wilson has not sufficiently ap
preciated the new conditions that
have arisen in the Adriatic question,
and that he might discuss the new
arguments which probably - will be
submitted to him."
Extremists Scorn IT. S. Aid.
The extreme opinion , is voiced by!
L'Eclair which asks what Europe
would lose if the United States re
fused to ratify the treaty and act
alone. L'Eclair says it would show
that "the ' Americans have returned
to their cold policy of business," and
adds:
"We do not see what interest, there
fore, Europe would have for the
United States to ratify the treaty
and to continue to mix in European
affairs. This would mean for Amer
ica to acquire a right on this con
tinent without any advantages to the
entente."
L'Informatton says Europeans must
not forget that President Wilson has
been a sick man. not in touch with
Europe, and troubled by Internal poll
tics, and adds that the allies, con
sidering this m their answer to the
president's note have renewed their
desire to follow with the United

L'Informatton adds, however, that

Wilson's attention to the fact that his
absence in the United States during
their conference is regrettable and
does not permit the solution of press
ing problems.
L Action Francalse continues Its at
tacks on President Wilson and says:
"If he still has lucidity to know
what he is doing, there is in his mani

thing bad.
'We should like to think that it it
