Percy D. Mcleod Accused of Having
Performed Operation Which Led to
Death of Susan Geary and of Hav-

BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
BOSTON, Nov. 3-Following a brief
conversation by officers over the long
distance telephone the secene of de-
velopments in the famous suit case
mystery has shifted from New York
back to Boston. Dr. Percy d. Mcleod, a
reputable physician of the Back Bay
district, was arrested today on the
charge of performing an illegal opera
ton on Susan Geary the Cambridge
chorus girl whose remains were found
In two suit cases in the waters of Bos-
ton harbor.
Through the confession of Lewis
Crawford and William Howard, the two
men arrested in New York yesterday,
the authorities received evidence which
in their opinion warranted the arrest Of
DR.. Mcleod this afternoon. 1t Is al
legged that Mcleod was called into the
case after the first operation was per-
formed in the Fremont street office and
that he performed a second operation
of a desperate nature in the vain at
tempt to save the life of the young
woman. Miss Geary failed to recover,
It is alleged, and DR.. Mcleod, in an
effort to conceal the crime, dismem-
bered the body. DR.. Mcleod will be
arraigned in court tomorrow.
Morris Nathan, the lover of Miss
Geary, who had been arrested i'm Pitts
burg last Saturday night and brought
to this city In state of collapse, Is
gradually recovering at the city hos
pital, where he was taken on his ar
rival here, but is not yet in a condi-
tion TO be brought into court.

TO GIVE TESTIMONY
ANSWER NO QUESTIONS IN THE
PRIVATE CAR INQUIRY

the Southern Pacific Decline to
Give Out Any information
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-President
Robbins of the Armour car lines and
Traffic Manager Sproule Of the South
ern Pacific company declined to answer
questions put to them by the inter-
state commerce commission in the pri-
Vate car line inquiry today both acting
under instructions of their counsel. The
examination of Mr.. Robbins was in
tended to show that the Armor car
lines, through Armour e. Co. or other
concerns controlled by the same con-
Germs, is engaged in business other than
that of leasing cars to railroads and
refrigerating perishable shipments. Mr..
Sproule was examined regarding an all
legged pooling contract between the
Southern Pacific and Southern Calfor-
MIA railways When the information
was denied to the commission it was
announced that the hearings would be
adjourned indefinitely. No action was
taken regarding the destinations.
President Robbins resumed the stand
this afternoon. Mr.. Barry asked as to
the average cost of refrigerating cars.
The witness, contrary to the ruling of
the chairman and under instruction
from counsel, declined to answer.
Questions as to the average daily
movement OIL cars, the average life OF
cars and the basis on which the COM
pany assessed or fixed charges were not
answered under similar circumstances.
The witness was asked to give lists of
icing stations and costs of Ice and
questions relative to tariffs on citrus
fruits, the witness refusing to answer
on the ground of no jurisdiction.
The book presented at the hearing at
Chicago as the Armour Telegraphic
code book was taken up, and the chair
man read from it,
"Launch-better arrange rebate
there" asking the witness what this
meant. This and all other questions
were not answered. upon advice of
counsel. Then Mr.. Robbins was dis
missed from the witness stand.
William Sproule, traffic manager of
the Southern Pacific Railway company,
testified in relation to it's contract. j.
T. Armour supplied his road with re-
frigerator cars. Attorney Dunno ad-
vised the witness to answer any ques-
| tion in relation to any contract between
the Southern Pacific and the Southern
California railways on the ground that
the investigation concerns refrigerator
charges and not transportation rates.
The commission instructed Mr.. Sproule
to answer, but he declined. Commits
sioner Prouty declared the contract to
be "a pooling agreement"
The witness refused to say whether
the contract Is still in operation.

GERMANY OFFER
To Be MADE SOON
WILL PRESENT PROPOSAL FOR
TRADE TREATY
It Is Explained That Won sternbero
viii Submit to State Department
Basis on Which His Country
Will Negotiate
BY Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3-Baron
Speck Won Sternberg, the German am
bassador, is expected to present in a.
few days to the state department the
basis upon which his government is
willing to enter upon negotiations with
the United States for a new trade
treaty or some kind of an Arrangement
that will stave off the dreaded tariff
war" which otherwise the department
officials fear must certainly begin with
in four months.
The state department has SO far
failed to admit the German conten-
tion regarding the arrangement" un-
der section 3 of the Dingley act, by
the terms Of which the United States
secures favored nation treatment in
the matter of trade with Germany
This German view was based on the
fact that new treaties, exclusive in
terms, had just been made with a
number of European countries, and
that America was debarred from claim
ing the benefits of the special loan
customs rates named unless she en-
tered into special convention with
Germany. But attention has now been
called to the fact that this Dingley
act arrangement" is by its own terms
terminable upon one months notice
from either party, and it is not doubted
that without prolonging the contro-
versy over the effect upon the vitality
of the Dingley act arrangement" of
the European treaties, Germany will
give the requisite months notice before
March next and thus terminate the
life of the arrangement beyond uues-
tion.
Nothing is officially known as to the
substance of Baron Sternberg's pro-
posals. He may propose a new arrange
ment under section 3 of the Dingley
act, replacing the paragraph in the ex-
isting arrangement comforting mini
mum tariff rates upon American i'm
ports by new section limiting the
minimum to a few articles of American
origin This has been suggested by
the Germans on the ground that the
general concession of minimum rates
on all American products is a much
more valuable concession to America
than this country is able to extend to
Germany under section g. because the
reduced duties therein provided for are
limited to distilled wines, vermouth.
argot and works of art. Another course
is the negotiation of a general reci-
procity treaty. Section of the Dingley
act, authorizing the negotiation of reci-
procity treaties under specified condi-
tions, has expired by limitation.
The question of expediency of nego-
tiating such a treaty under his con-
stitutional powers, in view of the fall
ure of the senate so far to act upon
any of the pending reciprocity treaties,
would have to be decided by President
can enter upon the negotiation of de-
