to his report on what bu been

pact held the attention ofthe
members of the supreme council
today. .
I Alter two talks with Premier
Lloyd, George, M. Briand declared
that the negotiations were a good
way toward success, but that noth
ing bad been decided la the form
of a treaty, which is taken to
mean that the draft before the
British cabinet la merely a Drltlsh

la passed on at,Xiondon. "-
' : ; - All nue Studied , .
In his view the pact is simply
a prolon Ration of the guarantee
treaties signed at Versailles bn'
which were aot ratified.
It Li the intention of Premi3
Rriand and Uord - Georee to, gc
over eTery question involving dif
ferences of policy but M. unana
said these were not many. As ioi
the Turkish Question, it wa. toi
one concerning the Angora treaty,
but concerned the - question oO
paace In tho Near East The sub
marine question, he thought
would disappear when France and
Great Britain became llies.
Ormanft Come Today
The German delegation will ar
rive tomorrow and. will be heard,
along with the reparations com
mission when final decision ir
reached on the proposed new .rej
aratlons terms. .
The desire of the Italians to
come Into the Tranco-British pact
has delayed announcement of the
details of the negotiations that
led up to its drafting. Mr. Lloyd
George prepared a statement out
lining tho conversations in Lon
don . At the request of M. Briand
this statement was somewhat, el
aborated on to glre more i ally the
riewa expressed by the British
premier. It probably will be pub
lished tomorrow while a memo
randum drafted by M. Briand giv.
1ng the French aide also will he
given out.
'-Italy h Question
When tho two premiers saw the
Italian premier, Slgnor Bonoml to
day, there was a disposition to
welcome Italian adhesion to the
agreement, which was described A3
destined ;pureiy to Insure peace-. II
was understood however, that tht
chances are Italy's entry Into the
alliance mnst be, tbej subject of
separate'!- negotiations as the
French and British want to com
plete their agreement here and
there is scarcely time! to go ovet
the subject again with Italy.
From such indiscretions as
have been committed thus far re
garding; the pact, it may be said
that it is purely a defensive one.
Great Britain agreeing to go to
the aid of France If she is the vic
tim of an unprovoked attack. Tb
general understanding, it is un
derstood, contains a provision that
the international situation must
remain as before the: war except
as provided by the treaty of Ver
sailles, Which is interpreted at
meaning that France must give up
ail ideaiof gaining any greater in
fluence lln Tangiers.
Revision Demanded
It is persistently reported that
tit? agreement provides that the
Angora treaty between France and
the Turkish nationalists must be
revised in a manner more favor
able to British and Italian inter
ests. .'!'
Finance Body Formed
Official announcement is made
that the supreme council tonight
approved the plan for the forma
tion of an international finance
corporation decided upon by the
economic committee. It was agreed
to appoint Immediately a sub
committee, composed of two
French and two British represen
tatives and one Italian, one Bal
gain and one Japanese represen
tative, to organize tue corpora

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10. (By
The Associated Press) Except
for details of the Pacific fortifi
cations agreement and a half doz
en leaner questions of phraseology,
the five-power naval limitation
treaty was put into final form to
day at a conference of the heads
of the American, British, Japa
nese, French arid Italian delega
tions. The question of geographical
scope was understood to be the
chief point unsettled in the forti
fications "status quo" in the Pa
cific. The Japanese were said to
hsave agreed tentatively to an
American draft of the article, but
to have deferred final action until
they communicated with Tokio.
KailiiiK t'Ofttponrd.
As a result of this development
and other details of final draft
ing, some delegates predicted that
tne iuu naval committee would
not be called to act on the treaty
before Thursday or Fnday and
that no plenary session would be
held until next week. There was
a . consequent postponement of
tentative sailing arrangements for
the foreign delegation: with in
dications that a majority believej
the conference would last until
the last of January
Today's discussions are under
stood-to reveal a growing incli
nation to exclude the submarine
and poison gas resolutions from
the naval treaty and make them
the subject of a separate agree
ment. Whether they will take
the form of another-treaty or will
be attached as an annex to the
five-power Wst was not finally
decided but the Impression of
many delegates tonight was that
they did not properly belong in
the same Instrument with the pro
visions for tonnaee limitations.
Shantung Up Again.
Meantime the Shantung nego
tiations, which have appeared to
be near dissolution, took a new
lease on life. Without settling
for the present the central dis
agreement over the return of the
Tsin Tao-Tslftanfu railroad, the
Japanese and Chinese agreed to
resume their separate conversa
tions tomorrow in an attempt to
clear away . other points of dif
ference. n
It was indicated that Secretary
Hughes . and Arthur J. Balfour,
whose tender of good offices have
not been formally accepted by
both sides, nevertheless are work
ing quietly for a settlement. In
some quarters there were sug
gestions that President Harding
might, be asked to mediate in the
railroad dispute but it was said
at the White House that so far
be had deceived no formal invita
tions to do so.
Other Articles to Cast.
The five delegation heads came
together to discuss the naval
treaty today after each national
group had met separately and
completed detailed study of the
text begun yesterday. After a
three-hour session, the "big five"
adjourned to meet again tomorrow
in agreement so far as policy was
concerned on all provisions ex
cept article 19, relating to the
Pacific fortifications. A half dos
en other articles, it was said re
mained to be finally cast intp le
gal phraseology but none seemed
to present any considerable dif
ficulties. ,

Temporary Regulation
For Tunnel is Ordered
Because or delay that wilf pre
cede the final determination and
Issuance of an order relative to
operation of trains through Pen
insula tunnel near t-ortland the
public service commission yester
day set forth certain regulations
thit must be followed pending
that time. They are:
"That the staff block limits
which include the tunnel, should
be so extended that trains passing
through the tunnel will be insur
ed a clear track at either end of
not less than 2000 feet from por
tal3. Orders which have hereto
fore been Issued at the St. John j
Junction staff house should be
Issued, except in cases of , emer
gency, at the Albino office; thus
permitting east or northbound
trains to pick up the staff without
loss of momentum, thus enabling
them to pass through the tunnel
more rapidly. Operations should
be eo arranged as to positively
insuie a clear track for east or
northbound trains through the
tunnel for the distance mention
ed. Spacing of trains through
the tunnel should be restricted so
that an interval of not less than
20 minutes should elapse between
trains entering the tunnel.
' Considering that any view of
the track in the tunnel proper is
obscured to the engineer and that
rail features are not unknown, a
careful inspection of the track
through the tunnel should be
made "by competent track walker
at least four times during each
zi-nour period."

poWvjr.
As outlined from Cannes Mon
day, the international finance cor
poration would have a capital ot
2,000,000 pounds. Its seat will be
in London with a board of direc
tors nominated by affiliated com
panies in each interested country.
These countries, including the
United States, would organize cor
porations for promotion only, with
a combined capital equivalent to
20 000.000 pounds.
The object ot these corporations
would be to serve as mediums for
credit transactions and to facili
tate the activities of private enter
prises In all countries where the
business field sow is obstructed
by lack of credits and disorgan
ized finances.

LOS ANGELES. Jan. 10. Ar
gument in the trial of Arthur C
Burch, charged with the murder
of J. Belton Kennedy, was inter
rupted today when Judge Sidney
N. Reeve, presiding, received
word that his brother was criti
cally ill at Fullerton. 30 miles
from Los Angeles. The judge ad
journed court until tomorrow
morning, then hurried by auto
mobile to his brother's home.
A3a Keyes, assistant district
attorney, was in the middle of the
opening argument for the prose
cution, when the adjournment was
announced. He had endeavored
to show the jury that the evidence
in the case showed Bureh killed
Kennedy on the night of August
5 the instigation of Mrs. Mad
alynne Obenchaln, co-defendant
in th4 c4e and. that Mrs. Oben
chaln lured Kennedy to Beverly
Glen, a foothill retreat, where the
tragedy occurred. '
Telejrram Read
Mr. Keys riad .telegram? Intro
duced iD?eY!flcice' as having been
sent from Ilurch. to Mrs. Oben-
chain, containing Such expressions
as "lots of love," "my love is with
you always.'! declaring they Indi
cated "there was love between
these people; at least on the part
of Burch.V ! He then traced the
movements of Burch from the
time, according to the evidence.
Mrs. Obenchaln wrote to Kennedy
all was at an end between them
and summoned Burch to Los An
geles, to the time of jthe foot
ing. Burch and Mrs! Obenchaln,
the assistant district attorney
said, spied upon Kennedy for
two weeks after Burch came here
from Evanston, I1U and Burch
rented an automobile under an
assumed name the night of the
slaying and Was seen driving that
cav through Beverly Glen both
before and after Kennedy was
shot, shortly, after 9 o'clock.
Doing Closed
"How did ?Burch know Kenne
dy would be there about
o'clock?" asked Keys. "Because
Madalynne Obenchaln had agreed
to have him I there."
"Where was Burchf that night,"
the prosecutor also asked.
"He had a chance to tell when
we questioned him at the district
attorney's office. Yon will re
member that he replied he would
not tell us until he had consulted
counsel and that then he would
explain, everything. But his do
ings have remained to this day a
closed book."
