COUNSEL TALKS OF
GAYNOR AND GREENE
Colonel Rountree Says They Must
Be Tried on Charge for Which
They Are Extradited.
lBr Associated Press.l

ATLANTA, GA. May 16-Colonel Dan
w. Rountree. counsel for John F. Gay
nor and 3. D. Greene in the Georgia
courts, in speaking OF the apprehension
OF his clients in Canada, says the men,
under the treaty with England, must be
II &c, for the offense for which they are
eEtradited. Greene and Gaynor are
charged in the United States Court in
Savannah, he continued. with conspiracy
against the government.
THE warrant for Greene and Gayner,
said Colonel Rountree. according to press
dispatches, charges Greene and Gaynor
With embezzlement. They are not
charged with embezzlement in this cour-
try, but with conspiracy against the gov
eminent. The treaty between England
and the United States distinctly provides
that persons extradited from Canada
npst be tried for the offense on which
they are extradited. and further that
there shall be no extradition for persons
charged with conspiracy against the gov
crnment.
"Of course. new indictment could be
found by the Savannah Court, but it
would not hold good, as the charge Of
e,nbezzlement would be barred by the
statute of limitations, is Messrs Greene
and Gaynor worked in Savannah over
four years ago.

WAS - to -. making 1t a tie. There Is
hot fight ahead when it is considered on
the floor of the conference.
The minority will recommend the Gre
alton of the order. They stipulats that
')le deaconesses must be Methodists. not
less than twenty-three years of age, and
single or widows. They shall be under
the Jurisdiction of the Board Of Wo-

the training school for two years and shall
take no vows. They may resign by Civ
ing three months notice or be discharged

From the way the conference now
seems to be divided. the discussion of
this question will be second in Importance
and interest only to the war claim. The
most able men in the church will partic-
ipste.

Publishing House Committee will make
its report on the war claim tomorrow
One will be signed by twenty-five COM
nljtteemen and the other by twenty mem

The reports are expected to- be the most

1umors are in circulation concerning the
matter. reliable information cbncerning
the tenor of these two documents is lack

Why is 1t that Oliver Ellsworth has
received SO little attention from biog.
raphers and historians? asks Frank
Gaylord Cook in The Atlantic. He was
not born in Massachusetts or Virginia.
In Connecticut, like Pennsylvania, the
historic field has been meagerly titled.
Moreover, the dramatic and opportune
quality of his work has been perceived
only through the perspective of subse-
Quent years. To negotiate an unpop.
alar convention for a party just retir-
ing from Office in defeat and ignominy
is not conducive to immediate fame.
Nevertheless he has not been wholly
overlooked by subsequent statesmen.
Webster said Of him: "For strength Of
reason, for sagacity. wisdom and sound
good sense in the conduct of affairs, for
moderation Of temper and general abil-
ity, it may be doubted If New England
has yet produced his superior"

The rirst LONDON Tneater.

The first playhouse to be built In Eng
land was the Theater. 1t was erected
in the year 1876, and its builder was
James Burbage, father Of the famous
actor Richard Burbage and himself
an actor of some repute. Access to the
Theater seems in old. times to have been
over Finsbury fields. The Curtain,
which. curiously, is named from the re-
gion or old manor on which the play
house was erected and not from the
familiar drapery Of the stage, was sit
uated south of Holywell lane, in Moors-
field (modern Gloucester street,, and is
( drst mentioned in the following year,
1917. Shakcspeares "Romeo and Ju.
liet'' was among the many plays first
acted there. The Theater was moved
away to the Bankside, and the old ma
terials were employed in building the
Globe, .Shakespeare's chief theater, in
1893. The Curtain continued to be used
as a playhouse far into the reign Of
King James. No picture of either Of
these original theaters has been hand
ed down, and owing to their position
without the walls none of the old maps
represents their precise location.-Lip-
