(By Associated Press.) Sheriff's

scouring southwestern . Michigan
In automobiles all day In a fruit
less .search for the robbers who
terrorized the Tillage for more
than two hours early today.
Leaving; behind them one
wounded resident, a badly wrecked
safe in the " offices of , the First
National bank and a crippled tele
phone system, that interferred
with efforts to trace the bandits
or to summon a sufficient number
of townsmen to capture them, the
robbers sped out of town by auto
mobile shortly before 5 o'clock
this morning .after the strength
of the Inner bank Tault had
baffled their attempt at robbery.
The number of the armed men
engaged in the attempted robbery
is not definitely known, although
those who saw them are .positive
there were five or more.
Residents tonight praised Miss
Josephine August, telephone oper
ator who they said, shattered the
hopes of the bandits. With much
of the telephone system put out
of commission by the bandits, Miss
August ultimately got a call
through to Dr. James H. Kelsey,
who armed himself and summoned
Sheriff Eai-1 Fill and Undersheriff
A. K. Nixon, i
Arrival or the physician and
two officers precipitated an ex
. change of shots that lasted for
more than an hour. . Villagers, at
traded by the firing, rushed out
thinly clad to determine the cause,
only to dodge back again when the
bullets flew close to them. George
Jones, a stock buyer, was struck
and slightly wounded by one of
the bullets. The sheriff said that
more than 260 shots were ex
changed, some of which broke
Windows in .houses and business
places.
Revolvers ' and sa wed-off shot
guns were used and the targets
were anyone who appeared on the
streets or -who showed lights in
office buildings or residences near
the business sections.
- The robbers first visited an ail
night restaurant and bound the
proprietor and the Tillage night
watchman, who was in the place.
Leaving a guard jover the men,
the other bandits went to another
. restaurant and treated its proprie
tor similarly. .
The front door of the First Na
tional bank then was forced, the
robbers takingrthelr prisoners in-
Vside with them. The outer door
of the safe was dynamited, no ef
fort being made to deaden the
sound of the explosion and the
noise brought several persons to
the street andto windows.
Five charges of dynamite were
exploded, the outer door of the
vault being torn away but the in
ner door withstanding the bandits'
.efforts. .Over, a wire which the

Over the protest of Sam A. Ko

Pierce and T. B. Kay, state treas
urer, established a precedent on
Tuesday when, as majority mem
bers "of the state board of control,
they refused to authorize the ex
pendltite or state money in -returning
an escaped youth from the
training school from Denver,
where he is under arrest for hav
ing stolen an automobile in his
possession. The boy, named Val

cording to Secretary of State Ko

institution."
In refusing to sanction the cost
of the transportation. Governor
Pierce said that the boy's father,
railroad man, was willing to
furnish transportation and that
they might as well save the state
approximately $150.
It is customary for the state, I
through the taxpayers, to pay for
the return of escaped inmates of
alt state institutions, and the
action taken yesterday was out o-
the ordinary procedure for such a
matter.

PARIS, Npv. 24. (By Associat
ed Press). The socialists' de
mands for half the portfolios in
the new government, for. the right
to name the new premier and to
dictate the financial policy, block
ed cabinet-making negotiations to
day and spoi)ed the efforts of M.
Briand t- form a ministry.
M. Briand finally declined to at
tempt formation of a cabinet and
suggested Senator Paul Doumer,
former finance minister, who con
sulted with President Doumergue
and requested 24 hours in which
to give his final answer.
Leon Blum, socialist leader, and
Paul Bonicour refused positions
under M. Briand, while the entire
socialist group decided that it
must be allowed to name at least
half the new ministers and adopt
ed a resolution declaring that it
could support the government only
on condition that the government
adopt the socialist project for a
capital levy.
M. Briand offered portfolios to
M. Painleve and M. Herriot. M.
Painleve declined and M. Herriot
made his acceptance conditional
upon the participation of the so
cialists. As a result of a seeming
ly well laid plan to maneuver him
into a corner, M. Briand informed
President Doumergue that Senator
Doumer seemed to be the most
likely man to rally a safe majority
in the chamber.
M. Doumer agreed to Bee what
he could do and started on his
task at once by obtaining M.
Briand's assurance that be would
stand by him as foreign minister.
The senator apparently is sure
of success, as he went to work
this evening on financial projects
he proposes to introduce in the
chamber immediately if he be
comes premier.
There was less confidence
among the deputies in M. Dou
mer's ability to solve the situa
tion. The socialists declared they
would have none of him. The
radicals are divided; a consider
able number are hostile because
M. Doumer is not regarded as a
man of the radical-socialist coali
tion.
The uncompromising attitude of
the two groups is said to indicate
a disposition to force President
Doumergue to call on M. Herriot
to form a radical socialist cabinet

by the Salem school board at its
regular meeting last night. Such
dates for the vacation were recom
mended by Superintendent George

Tiie board voted to rent the higtt
school gymnasium for basketball
practice at the rate of $i for each
night of practice. The motion
also provided that the city super
intendent be instructed to draw
up rules and regulations to govern
the use of the floor and conduct
in the building of those teams that
might want to accept the proposi
tion. It is understood that one of
these rules will be that no smok

that there shall be no spectators
at the practice. The American Le
gion, at the last meeting of the
board, asked permission to use the
high school gymnasium, and sig
nified their willingness to pay for
the expense of keeping open the
gym for the practices.
Director L. J. Simeral was in

a heater for the purpose of heat

nights of basketball practice and
games. It was brought out that
use of such a heater would save
the expense of running the furnace

WHITE PLAINS. N. Y.. Nov.
24. (By Associated Press.)
Alice Beatrice Jones, daughter of
a negro hack driver, will tomor
row tell her version of her rom
ance with! Leonard Kip Rhineland
er, wealthy young society man,
who seeks annulment .of their
marriage.:
For the past week young Rhine
lander, stuttering and red of face,
has told bis story and submitted
to a gruelling cross examination
of intimate questions concerning
his love life. Today he stepped
down as his counsel rested his
case. Alice was to have been the
first defense witness but she was
too shaken to begin her testimony
by her ordeal of yesterday when
she partly disrobed in a private
room to permit the jury to Bee the
color of her skin.
Lee Parsons Davis, her attor
ney announced that she will be
the first witness tomorrow.
Her appearance, however, may
be delayed by a legal angle which
has resulted from an application
by Rhinelander's attorney to
amend the original complaint. In
the complaint the plaintiff al
leges that Alice defrauded her
husband by claiming she was
white. The amendment, sought
today by Isaac N. Mills, Rhine
lander's attorney, would charge
her- with defrauding him also by
not telling him she was a negress.
Justice Morschauser will rule on
the question tomorrow. Mr. Davis,
In objecting to the amendment,
contended that Mr. Mills sought
to "put two arrows in his bow."
Although it was first thought
that a mis-trial might result over
the issue, counsel for the plaintiff
said they did not consider the
point vital enough to contest an
adverse decision by the presiding
Justice.
iiTbe morning session was con
cerned with Alice's actions during
the four days immediately follow
ing the breakup of her home with
Leonard when news of their mar
riage was first published. Mrs.
Joseph Rich, wife of a furniture
dealer with whom Alice sought
shelter, testified that Alice laid
claim to being of Spanish descent.

BEIRUT, Nov. 24. (By Associ

ments converging on the town v
Rasheiya, west of Damascus, hsve
routed the Druse tribesmen who
were investing the French garri
son of 250 men, thereby rescuing
the defenders from what seemed
at times would prove annihilation.
Prior to the relief of the garri
son the French artillerymen with
in the citadel bombarded the town
which was den on fire. Various
French columns were dispatched
hastily and by a concerted attack
swept the tribesmen before them
inflicting what are described as
"considerable losses."
The Druses launched violent
but unsuccessful attacks against
Rasheiya Saturday and Sunday
nights and Monday morning.
Sultan Pasha Atrash, chief of
the Druse tribesmen, has issued a
manifesto with reference to rum
ors that certain persons were plan
ning to negotiate with the new
high commissioner on the future
of Syria.
"We will not accept anything
less than complete independence."
the manifesto declares; "not al
low anyone to negotiate for us ex
cept those we have empowered to
negotiate. Any secret negotia
tions are without our knowledge
and will be unavailing. Nothing
will deflect us from the patriotic
struggle until all the wishes of
Syria have been realized, especi
ally after the grave misfortunes
the mandatory power has caused
our brothers in Damascus."
All today there was severe fight
ing in the Bika valley, where the
insurgents attacked two columns
of French reinforcements.
The French forces, comprising
2500 cavalry and infantry, with
Spahis and Moroccans, defeated
the Druses with severe losses. The
Druse force at first numbered only
1,000, but as the fighting progress
ed they sent scouts into the vil
lages shouting "rise up, brothers;
the French are coming!" and
1,000 more hardy mountaineers
poured from the foothills to Join
the rebels.
Several times during the fight
ing, airplanes from Rayak joined
in spreading death among the
tribesmen who lost 200 killed.

Utterly in Their Trust

WASHINGTON. Nov. 24. fBr
Associated Press.) Col. William
Mitchell concluded late today a
0-hour recitation of air service
troubles of the army and navy
which he delivered in his own de
fense before the court martial try
ing him for insubordination, and '
then prepared to rest his case to--
morrow.
The conclusion of hi3 testimony
found the air officer standlnr
squarely behind the famous charg
es he published, accusing the war
and. navy departments of incompe
tence, criminal neglect and almost
treasonable conduct of the nation
al defense.
After he had passed the direct
examination he faced the prosecu
tioa cross examination, and then
answered numerous questions put
by his counsel, the court Itself
took a turn with the air service
critic. His last words on the
stand were, a definition of the 'al
most treason" charge as he meant
to be understood. -
"I meant that the people have
put their trust in the war and
navy departments to guarantee a
proper national defense and that
they have failed in that trust." he
declared.
Previously the colonel had sum
med . np his charges under the
treason, neglect and rncomnetAniA
charges and specified Just what
air troubles he referred .to in the
triple accusation.
The court heard five witnesses
and a number of stipulation!

tests, and finally attested to the
accuracy of a statement he had
made to the .effect that Colonel
Mitchell was being tried by nine
flog robbers of the general staff."
