Published by Arrangement. ) LONDON, Dec. 1. Mrs. Clare SherN dan's diary today deals with her sit tings with Trotzky. "October 11 In the morning: I ac- i companied a friend to the headquar ters of the third internationale. It is In a beautiful house formerly the German embassy, and where Count Mirbaeh was murdered. I came away In a car with Mine. Balabanoff, whom I had often heard of. "tfhe is small, vain and middle aged, with an ugly, crumpled-up face, but intelligent. She practically told me that I was doing Leuine's head to take back to England to show to the. idle curious. I corrected her by taying that so far as the public wa concerned I only wished to enable those who had him at present repre sented by photographs , to substitute a bust. She was equaly vehement about photographs. Trotzky Agrees to Sit. "Octo'ber 17 Litvinoff came to see roe in the afternon and was surprised . I had not been to work at Trotzky's. I explained to him that through an other comrade Trotkzy had flatly re fused to be done by me. litvinoff could not understand this. He s:l he had seen Trotzky last night, who had consented and had promised even to be amiable to me.- It was then de cided that Litvinoff would see Trot zky again during the day and tele phone me what arrangements he made. 'October 18 Trotzky's car came for me at 11:30 A. M. and Litvinoff explained to the chauffeur that he was first to go to the Kremlin with me to fetch my things. The chauf feur and myself and the plaster moulder, who was there working, carried the things down to the car and I was then driven to some place the long way from the Kremlin, the war ministry, I think. I was ushered Jn I and my molding stand and my clay together. "From behind an enormous writing table in one corner and near a win dow came forth Trotzky. He shook hands with me welcomingly and asked at once if I talked French. Ridiculous Situation Remedied. "The light'from two windows was certainly very bod. It lit up one side of my work. The rest was in outer darkness. The room, which would have made a beautiful ballroom, looked large and dark. Beyond there were huge white columns which got In my way and hampered the light. "My heart utterly sank at the dif ficulties of the situation. I looked at my man. who was bending down writing at his desk. It was impos sible to see what sort of face he had got. I looked at him for a while and looked at my lump of clay and then I went and knelt in front of the writing table opposite him with my chin on his papers. He looked up from his writing and stared back a nerfectlv steady, unabashed stare. His look was a solemn, analytical one. Perhaps mine was, too. "After a few seconds I realized' the absurdity of our attitudes and had to laugh. I said, 'I hope you ao not mind being looked at.' " T don't mind." he answered. 1 have my reason in looking: at you, nd it is I who gain." ' "T asked permission to take a few measurements. "Whatever vou like he said, and then he pointed out to me how utter ly unsymmetrical his face is, which is true. If his nose were straight, he would have a very fine line from the forehead. Full-faced, he is Mephisto. His eyebrows go up at an angle and the lower part of his face all goes to a point. When he talks, his face lisrhts up and his eyes flash. This flash is much talked of in Russia and people say to one, 'Have you seen Trotskv'a eyes?' He is called the wolf. "He was thoughtful for a while and then asked me. 'Are you under the care here of our foreign office?' 6aid I was not. 1 Trotsky Tells of Arrest. "At 4 o'clock he ordered tea and had f onio with me. He talked to me about himself and of his wanderings in ex ile during the war, and how finally at the outbreak of the 'revolution he sailed on a neutral ship from the United States to return to Russia. Also how they (the British) arrested him and took him to a Canadian con centration camp. "At -5 I prepared to leave. He ent me home in his car. "Oct. 19. Trotsky's car came at 6:30. "When I got to Trctsky's I waj frozen. He put a chair for me by the fire and when I had melted, he put all the lights on and got to work. He said: 'We will have an agreement quite businesslike. I will come and stand by the side of your work for five minutes every half hour.' Of course the five, minutes got very enlarged and we talked and worked and lost all track of time. "Oct. 20. Foreign papers, we heard, have started news of a counter revo lution, but if there is any such plot eteps have been taken to deal with it. It is a bore coming to Moscow to find It so beastly quiet. German Workers Intrigue. "This evening I asked Trotsky for rev;s. He says that German workers have voted in favor of joining the Moscow internationale, which he says is very important, but England, he fays, is Russia's real and dangerous enemy. "I said: 'Not France?' " "No, France is just a noisy, hys terical woman, making scenes, but England, that is different altogether.1 "After that I worked for an hour and he never spoke. He was busy at bis table with his papers. Toward the end of the -evening he offered to come and stand for a bit and while doing so he remarked on my name being spelled the same as that of the playwright (Richard Brinsley Sheri dan). I explained that I had married a lirect descendant. He was Inter dal' had been translated and has been continually acted here in Russia. "It was then a quarter to midnight. I looked desperately at the clock. 'What about this order to be homet midnight? How am I tc do it?" He said : . 'I will take you myself.' "At about half after midnight we left. A man in uniform joined us and sat next to the chauffeur. He had in his hand a very big leather holster. Crossing the bridge, we were stopped by about five soldiers, and the man with the holster had to show our pa pers by the light of the car lamp.' It delayed us several minutes. I said to Trotzky, 'Put your head out of the window and say who you are. " 'Taisezvous,' said Trotzky peremp torily, so I sat. rebuked and eilent, until we were allowed to pass on un recognized. Oct. 21. Tonight was better for work. I felt calmer, as the worst dif ficulties were surmounted. Trotzky stood for me in a good tight and dic tated to his stenographer. That was excellent. His face was animated and his attention occupied. - "We talked a little about me. He said 1 should remain in Russia a while longer and do some big work, some thing like my 'Victory,' which he likes and has insisted on keeping: photo graphs of, 'an emaciated and exhaust ed figure, and still fighting, and that is the allegory of the soviet." "I answered him that I could get no news of my children, and there fore I must go back. T must return to my own world, with its cultured people, who wonder always what the world will think, and leave behind Russia, with its big ideas which spoil one so.' A Moment of Ferocity. "'Ah, that is what you say now, but when you are away' and he hes itated. T,hen, suddenly turning on me with clenched teeth and fire in his eyes, he shook a threatening fin ger in my face. "If when you get back to England vous nous calominez as the rest have. I tell you I will come to England, et je vous' He did not say what he would do, but there was murder in his face. I smiled. 'That is all rig-lit. Now I know how to get you to England.' Oct. Hi;. I have finished my Trot zky bust. I worked until half after nidnight. I think it is a success. He said so. but it has been such a strug gle. About half way through the evening the electric light went out A secretary lit four candles. On the telephone Trotzky learns that the ights had gone out all over town. '. asked him, hopefully, if it could possibly be the outburst of a counter revolution. He laughed and asKed if that was what, I wanted. I said I thought it would break the monotony. "Until the lights went on I read a leading article on bolshevism in the (London) Times of. I think, October 4. When the lights went on I worked hectically on until. after midnight with the desperation of knowing it was the last sitting. When he left his last words to me were: 'Well, we will go together to the front.' But something tells me that we will never meet again, for I would rather pre serve the impression of our hours of individual work, collaboration and quietude, silently guarded over by a sentry with a fixed bayonet outside th,e door." , RECESS IS ORDERED Hi SHIPPING PROBE Committee to Resume After Congress' Reconvenes. ACCUSED DENY CHARGES WHISKY GUARDS TRICKED SUPPLY REMOVED WHILE DEP UTY SHERIFFS WATCH. ' a Liquor Valued at Several Hundred Dollars Taken From Cellar of Seattle Residence. SEATTLE, Wash.. Dec. 1. (Spe cial.) While deputy sheriffs were standing guard whisky valued prob ably at hundreds of dollars at current prices was alleged by federal agents to have disappeared from P. E. Sulli van's cella?- in his residence at 3002 Harvard avenue north, between Fri day night and Monday morning, ac cording to information received by R. C. Saunders, deputy United States attorney. An attempt was made by county officials Friday night to seize the Sullivan stock of liquor under the Washington state prohibition act. A 60-mile gale was blowing at the time and nobody would take the respon sibility of moving the liquor in the storm, it was said at the sheriff's office. Before the liquor could be moved Saturday, a temporary re straining order had been obtained by Sullivan to prevent the sheriff from doing so. Deputy Sheriffs Connors and Von Gerst were appointed guards to watch the cellar, to see that none of the liquor was touched until the matter of the restraining order was settled in court. S. E. Bunker, prohibition eaforce ment officer, stated that when he went to the Sullivan cellar with county officials Friday night, 36 bot tles of Canadian whisky and several kegs of other whiskies, including some Sunnybrook, were in sight. He said he knew what the kegs con tained,- Because when the spigots were turned whisky ran out. When he returned to the cellar Monday, he said, the w-hisky was gone. Empty containers alone were in sight where the whisky had been The stocks of wines and other liquors seemed to be intact. UNIT TO BE INSPECTED First Rollcall for Battery Is to Be on Monday. ABERDEEN, Wash., Dec. 1. (Spe cial.)

John Cranor and Lester Sisler Are Among Witnesses Testifying at Close of Hearing. NEW YORK, Dec. 1. The Walsh congressional committee, investigat ing affairs of the United States ship ping board, terminated today a three weeks' open session. The committee will resume its work after the re convening of congress, sitting for a time in Washington before returning to New York. Among witnesses testifying today were John Cranor, ex-representative of the Downey Shipbuilding corpora tion at Washington, and Lester Sisler, ex-secretary to the shipping' board, who were named by Tucker K. Sands in his testimony as sharing in an alleged fee of $40,000 which Sands said was paid toobtain a shipping board contract. Charges Denied by Both. Both witneses denied the charges and asserted they were unable to say what motive inspired Sands to make them. William Denman, first execu tive of the fleet corporation, also testified that there had never been a "controversy" over the wodden ship programme before him and Major General Goethals, associated "with him in organization of the corpora tion. ' During the sessions here, sub peneed and1 voluntary witnesses tes tified to numerous alleged instances of mismanagement and lack of ac counting and checking which were said to have resulted in losses to the government of millions of dollars. Expert Accountant Testifies. Martin Gillen. expert accountant to ex-Chairman Payne, testified that more than $2,000,000,000 of the value of the ships for which the government appropriated approximately $4,000.- 000.000 had been amortized and should treated the same as "burned pow der or other war emergency expenses." Cranor testified that while he was in Washington the Providence com pany was endeavoring to procure a contract for the construction of ten tugboats and that he learned that the financial standing of the concern was not satisfactory to the credit depart ment of the shipping board." Cranor said that Mr. Downey sent him to Washington to arrange a credit for the Providence company and took the matter to Sands, who was then vice-president and cashier of the Commercial National bank. The bank then issued a credit letter to the extent of $125,000 to the ship ping board for the Providence Engi neering corporation. 10,000 Iterlnrrd Paid. The witness safd that he had agreed to pay $40,000 for arranging ' this credit. Mr. Downey and Sands eventually agreed on $25,000, Cranor said. Denman testified that there never had been any controversy between himstelf and Major-General George W. Goethals, associated with Denman when the fleet corporation first was instituted, over the "wooden ship programme." Denman said he at no me was in favor of wooden ships except as a war emergency or as auxiliary to steel vessels. Sisler resumed the stand and -reit erated his previous testimony deny ing improper business relations with Sands. Denman, whose home is In San FrancLsco; appeared at his own re quest. He said he would reappear prepared to testify as to matters con cerning the board when he was actively connected with it. "It is my desire to kill the so-called Denman-Goethals controversy.' " Policy Is Explained. "During our time with the board. General Goethals was in favor of building just as many ships as was passible. The country was demand ing that they be constructed regard less of cost or methods. 'In the two months we served with out an organization contracts were arranged for 600 vessels) costing more than $300,000,000 without a -scratch of a pen for authority and the con tracts were afterwards ratified. He said he had promulgated a project relating to building of an. in ternal combustion engine which, had it been carried out, , would have solved any bunkering problem," In the world- cisier also lecsiii-ieu -a xi is eiioria j- . , to get asanas to mane an accountingh-T with reference to Sisler s sand and) gravel company, which Sands and hel financed. He also said that thel Goethals-Denman controversy was i most unfortunate thing for the coun try. , School Debate Announced. CENTRALIA. Wash., Dec. 1. (Spe ciai.)

OREGON AGRICtTTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, Dec. 1. (Special.) A "more milk" campaign will be run as a feature of the Ashland chamber cf commerce fair, opening tomorrow for three days, by the home demon stration agent and other child welfare workers, reports Mrs. Jessie D. Mc Comb, state leader of home demon stration work for Oregon. The work of increasing the milk consumed by 325 Grants Pass children is, said by Mrs. McComb to have been all the more remarkable for the rea son that the local supply was inade quate, and milk had to be imported for the increased use in child feeding. At Medford 102 children are getting milk now who did not get any when the campaign opened. A milk and dairy products shop is one, of the in cidental advantages that have grown out of the campaign.
