continuous.
After the review M. Loubet taking his
position on the reviewing stand to pre-

I'm the name of the republic I deliver
to you the flags of the expeditionary
corps They are confided to your loyalty

will inscribe upon their folds the name of

Officers, non-commissione I'd officers and
soldiers, let these flags be to you sacred
gift. They recall the lofty mission OF
France, mission confided to your cour-
age, to exact from a country where the
essential laws Of civilized countries have
been outrageously violated, the chastfse-
ment of the guilty, and to impose some
vivid indemnities for the past with nee

PARIS, Aug. II, 1920 p. m-The tsunE
II yamen forwarded through the Chinese
minister in Paris, Yu Keng, a message
to the French government complaining
of the hardness of the foreign ministers
In Pekin in replying to the offer of the
Chinese government to conduct them un-
der escort" The message proceeded to
say the tsung II yamen declined to be
responsible for any casualties which
might follow these delays and insisted
that the European governments order
their representatives to leave Pekin.
To this telegram NJ. Delcasse, minis
ter Of foreign affairs, sent the following
reply:
mo order to depart from Pekin will
be given to our minister so long as the
route is unsafe. If casualty occurs the
responsibility will be entirely with the
Chinese government. It's strict duty Is to
protect foreign ministers even more than
it's own.
"If it be true that the Chinese govern
ment has great difficulty in defending
them and in defending itself against reb-
els, 1t should order it's troops to stand
aside before the allied forces This
would render free the road from Tien
Tsin to the capital and would accom-
plish the work of protection, which 1t
encumbers.
THE Chinese government should I'M
derstand that the only means OF proving
the sincerity of its designs Of limiting
It's responsibilities is a cessation in the
placing of obstacles in the way of such
an arrangement"

declare themselves.
The first session of the convention Of

HIS DEBTS ARE WIPED OUT
MAToUs NOVoTNY FINALLY Sc
CURES FROM THE COURT A DIS
CHARGE IN BANKRUPTCY
FOLLOWS MUCH LITIGATION
Judge Garland Reverses the Finding
of the Referee - Question
Hinged on ChatteI
Mortgage.

| SIOUX FALLS, s. D., Aug. 12.-(Spec-
ial.)-An important decision bearing on
| the new federal bankruptcy law has just
been rendered by Judge Garland, of the
United States court, in the case of Mat
GUS Novetny, of Kimball. In August,
1896. Novotny who was one Of the most
prominent business men of his town, clos
ed the doors of his general store, owing
to various firms at St Paul, Minneapolis,
Chicago, Sioux City and Omaha amounts
aggregadng thousands of dollars. Cred
1tors took possession of his stock, when
1t developed that a few days prior to the
store being closed he had given a chattel
mortgage of $4,000, covering substanti-
ally all of his personal property, incIud-
ing his general stock of merchandise,
to John Novotny, brother, living at
Yankton. Upon the ground that the
chattel mortgage was fraudulent, the
creditors obtained an order from the
state circuitcourt, under which the stock
was sold. After the sale, John Novotny
commenced suit for damages against
the sheriff Of Brule county, who had con-
Quoted the sale in behalf of the credit
ors. The jury which tried the case rem
dered judgment partly for the plaintiff
and partly for the defendant. Some
weeks ago Matous Novotny made appli-
cation for his discharge as a bankrupt
in the federal court here. His creditors
filed specifications in opposition, and the
matter was referred to Referee in Bank
ruptcy r. w. Parliman, who, as the re-
suit of a hearing last June, decided that
Novotny should not be granted a dis
charge. Novotny then filed with Judge
Garland exceptions to the findings and
conclusions of the referee In their
specifications opposing Novotny's dis
charge as a bankrupt, the creditors laid
particular stress upon the alleged fraudu-
lent character of the chattel mortgage
for $4,000 which he had given to his
brother. Judge Garland, in disposing of
the case, reverses the decision of the
referee and holds in substance that as
the only testimony in the case in regard
to the Indebtedness of $4,000 to his
brother is that of Novotny himself it
cannot be found that he did not owe his
brother as stated in the schedule. There
are several propositions" says Judge
Garland, mentioned In the answer of
the sheriff, upon which the mortgage
could have been held fraudulent and
void as to creditors, which would in no
way tmpeach the good faith of the tran
saction as between Matous Novotny and
John Novotny. The bankrupt remaining
in possession of the property and selling
it, under the circumstances disclosed,
might have, under the instructions of
the court, determined the case, but the
record of the Judgment is not evidence
against the bankrupt at all, and we are
simply thrown on the testimony of the
bankrupt himself as to his Indebtedness
to his brother" 1t Is therefore held
that the findings Of the referee are not
sustained by the evidence, and Novotny
is ordered discharged from bankruptcy.
