PEACE CONFERENCE TODAY
Kemal Makes Conditions for
Military Halt.
BOUILLON GIVES REPORT
General Harington and High
rjommissioners Are Met; Kem
alists Are Near Chanak.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 2. (By
th Associated Press.) The Kemal
ist proposals which will be laid
formally before the Mudania con
ference tomorrow are "discussable
but not acceptable." This was the
decision of the extraordinary ooun
cil which met at the British em
bassy this afternoon. It included
the allied high commissioners. Am
bassadors, generals and admirals.
M. Franklin Bouillon, the French
envoy, through whose efforts with
Kemal Pasha the conference was
made possible, expressed his confi
dent belief of the Associated Press
correspondent this evening that an
agreement would be reached tomor
row at Mudania.
"Kemal will make an even greater
effort for peace than 'he. has made
for war," he said.
Two llueMtions Important.
Two of the most important ques
tions to be discussed at the confer
ence will be demarcation of a new
neutral zone on the Asiatic shores
of the Dardanelles and Ismld, and
the evacuation of Thrace.
The allies hold that Kemal's de
mands, as outlined by M. Franklin
Bouillon, are of such a nature that
the Angora assembly would there
after be in a position to reject the
allied note. Kemal Pasha insisted
on settlement of all military ques
tions before replying to the allied
proposals. He and four of the
ministers at Smyrna "accepted the
allied npte in principle, but the
attitude of the Angora assembly
was not made known.
Neutral Zone Xot Mentioned.
The allies feel that Kemal's de
mands could have ben made with
better grace if the allied note had
been fully indorsed by his govern
ment. Kemals armistice terms
make no reference to a neutral
zone or neutrality of the straits,
but the opinion of the allied coun
cil was that the most important
question to be discussed tomorrow
would be the establishment of a
provisional neutral line at Chanak,
as suggested by General Haring
ton's latest note to the Turkish
nationalist leader.
It must be remembered that the
Mudania conference is military, not
political, but the evacuation of
Thrace is largely under the latter
category and is hardly considered a
matter to be decided upon by the
allied generals alone.
Session to Be Ashore.
It was decided tonight that the
armistice conference must take
place ashore at Mudania, instead of
on one of the allied ships. This
decision was reached principally
because the allies were unable to
agree even on such a minor ques
tion as to which should have the
honor of acting as host of the con
ference. Each apparently feared that the
holding of the conference aboard
one of the others' ships would give
that nation a distinct advantage in
the session and in the report of
that session which would reach
the outside world.
Delegates Go to Mudania.
Hammid Bey, representing the
Angora government, accompanied
by M. Franklin-Bouillon, the French
envoy, will leave tomorrow morn
ing for Mudania on the cruiser Metz.
General Mombelli, who will repre
sent Italy at the conference, will
proceed on tne Victor Emmanuel;
General Sharpie, for France, on the
Jean Bart, and General Harington
on the Iron Duke.
The conference will begin at 1
o'clock. Newspaper correspondents
will be excluded from the meeting.
Daily communiques will be issued
on the results of the conference and
transmitted by wireless to Con
stantinople. Change Cannes Comment.
General Harington's consenting to
meet Ismet Pasha, instead of Mus
tapha Kemal has. caused much com
ment. There is a vast difference in
their ranks. General Harington be
ing commander-in-chief of the allied
forces, while Ismet Is only second
in command of the nationalist army.
It was learned that M. Franklin
Bouillon had obtained Kemal's
pledge to suspend military move
ments during the armistice confer
ence, provided the allies accept the
following conditions:
1. Formal guarantees concerning
, the evacuation of Thrace.
2. The establishment of 'allied
garrisons in the larger towns of
Thrace.
3. The occupation of Thrace by

boats made good time to the over
turned launch and as they neared
it the niembers of the crew saw
one of the men still clinging to it,
but before they could reach him
he had sunk. Neither of the bodies
had been recovered late today, and
doubt was expressed that they will
be found at all unless they are
washed up on the beach.
Even when the .. two fishermen

at Florence for many years.
WIFE SLEUTH; TWO HELD

(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)

BORGIA RINGJS POISON
Serious Injury to Curio Collector
Laid to Serpent.
ZURICH, Oct. 2. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) What is thought to
be the poison of the 15th-century
Borgias has been transmitted to a
curio collector here with serious ef
fect. The collector recently bought .
a ring in Turin, Italy, made in the
form of a serpent and guaranteed to
be of the Borgia period. The buyer
wore the ring and returning here
found that his ring finger and fore
arm had swelled. A doctor was
called and declared that poisoning
was due to the ring.
Investigation proved that there
was a email hole under the serpent's
head and from this the poison was
emitted, but time had weakened its
strength.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2. Je fast
freight train stopped in Newark,
N. X, at dusk today and from one
of Its car doors jumped a lengthy,
sunburned youth, known down in
a far' hot corner of Texas as "Long
Jim" Baker, star hurler of a semi
professional team named after a
grocer for advertising purposes.
Jim came to New York on a tube
train and found a cheap hotel.
"Who's going to pitch the fust
game?" he asked.
"Joe Bush for the' Yankees and
little Archie Nehf, the left-handed
Giant," answered . an individual
whose face was buried in a sporting
page.

"Wa'al," drawled Jim, "I been
expecting for some time that some

a world series game myself, so I
tho't I'd come up to see what
they're like, get used to the crowds

At about the same time Jim left

Whole Section of County
Mount Victory Is Scoured
With Renewed Energy.? o .
MOUNT VICTORT, O., Oct. 3.
Posses of" farmers were ' scouring
this entire section of the county
with renewed energy tonight for
two lions, reported to have been
seen several times near Mount Vic
tory. An all-day search proved
futile and farmers were under the
impression that the jungle beasts
were confining their activities to
the night time. ,
The animals were first seen about
a week ago by William Wilkerson.
Since then they have been reported
am having been seen by several
other persons. Interest reached a
high pitch today, when a railroad
enginer and fireman reported that
they saw the lions last night.
"The night- was' clear and there
was no mistake about it," said Ben
F. Gregory of Bellefontaine, engi
neer. "They were snooping nere ana
there, and when we got within close
range both made a beeline for a
Woods near by."
His fireman, Arthur Stauffer of
Indianapolis, confirmed the state
ment. It is recalled that considerable
stock has been kiired and this was
attributed to dogs. Now the kill
ing is believed to be the work of
the beasts, which are thought to
have escaped from a circus.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Approximately 49
roads west of the Mississippi river,
embracing ail the principal carriers
in this section, tonignt were re
ported ready to sign an agreement
with the Brotherhood of Railroad
Trainmen and the Order of Railway
Conductors, continuing the present
rates of pay and rules with some
slight changes for not her year.
Negotiations began this morning
between a committee of executives,
headed by W. M Jeff era, general
manager of the Union Pacific, and
W. G. Lee, head of the trainmen,
and L. E. Sheppard, leader of the
conductors.
Only two main points were at is
sue, Mr. Lee said, -overtime and rates
of pay. He said the discussion to
day was friendly and all indica
tions were that an agreement would
be formally reached tomorrow. The
brotherhood committees met tonight
and it was understood virtually ac
cepted the proposition with the ex
ception of some slight changes in
rules, to be worked out tomorrow.
At present members of the train
men's and conductors' organizations
receive time and one-half pay for
overtime after the eighth hour. The
roads have attempted to do away
with this punitive overtime and
have carried this dispute along with
wage disagreements to the labor
board. The two organizations also
have sought aid from the board in
disputes on these points. Any agree
ment reached, Mr. Lee said, will
provide for withdrawal of all such
cases.
Mr. Jeffers, while refusing to
discuss the meeting for publication,
intimated that the propositions
"were mutually agreed to" and that
new contracts were assured.

BOTH MEN PROMINENT
Thorough Investigation by State
Commission Said to Have Pre
ceded Ouster Action.
SALEM, Or., Oct. 2. (Special.)
Summary removal of H. J. Overturf
of Bend and O. B. Hardy of Red
mond, members of the board of
bonus loan appraisers for Deschutes
county, was effected at a meejing
of the world war veterans' state
aid commission held here today.
The meeting was attended by all
the members of the commission and
presided over by Governor Olcott.
Mr. Overturf, one of the men re
moved, served as a member of the
lower house of the legislature dur
ing its last session and is well
knovfn throughout the state. Mr.
Harly is a land appraiser and has
been a resident of Redmond for
many years.
Vajues Declared Padded.
Padding of realty values was
given as the reason for the com
mission's action. Investigation of
Dedchutes county loan appraisals
was said to have disclosed a num
ber of cases where the values have
been kited. Erroneous reports of
purchase prices and of the value of
property offered the state as secur
ity were attributed to the two ap
praisers by the commission. At
present there are but two apprais
ers, the third member of the board,
Fred N. Wallace of Tumalo, having
resigned recently.
The commission at the same time
reached a decision to present the
entire matter to the proper author!
ties for presentation to the grand
Jury in DesAutes county for in
vestigation. Members of the com
mission refuse to discuss the mat
ter further than to say that the
whole operation of the an law in
that county ought to be delved into
and that from the facts and rcporjs
which it has collected the grand
jury is the proper body to make
such an investigation.
State I.oas Held Fared.
That the state stood to lose heav
ily through loans made on farms
and homes is apparent from the
high valuations placed on proper
ties offered the state as security,
members of the commission de
clared. It was said that in several
cases
the appraisers fixed values
on property that were more than
v v ' ...
50 per cent greater than the a
price, in some cases mt.t
were those In which Mr. Overturt
had either a personal interest or an
interest through a Utah loan
agency of which he has been the
' representative, it was alleged by
tne commission.
The action of the commission in
removing Mr. Overturf and Mr.
Hardy was preceded by' a pains
taking investigation. From the
first days of the loan operations the
commissioners said they had noted
high valuations placed almost with
out exception on Deschutes county
properties and finally decided to
institute an inquiry.
y Special A seat Is Seat.
A special agent was employed by
the commission and sent to Des
chutes county, where a careful and
thorough Investigation was carried
on. All loans in the county have
been held in abeyance since that
time and losses to the state pre
vented The agent who conducted
the investigation appeared before
the commission today.
A new set of appraisers will be
named at once and the operation of
the loan law will be resumed in
Deschutes county.
Because of the prominence of the
men invOlved the action of the com
mission caused a mild sensation
here tonight. . i
Telegrams were sent to Deschutes
county by the commission tonight
notifying Mr. Overturf and Mr.
Hardy of their removal from the
board of appraisers.
Appraisers, under the law creat
ing the world war veterans' state
aid commission and rules subse-
quently adopted by the body, re- j
ceive so tor eacn appraisement.
This fee is paid by the applicant
for the loan. There is a board of
appraisers in each county in the
state and loans are made by the
c.nimixninn nartlv unon the recom
mendation of these boards. '
