FRANCE CERTAIN TO RESIST

London. Jan. 6.-According to Off
cial information received In London
from Berlin, Germany not only de-
mands that all powers shall partici-
pate in the execution Of reforms In
Morocco but that the work of watch
ing the frontier shall be divided
among them, thus realizing the fears
expressed by an official Of the foreign
office in an interview with the Associ-
ated Press last Thursday, that the
German delegates might insist on reg
ulations clashing with what France
considered her special privileges, for
instance the policing of the frontier.
If Germany persists in this attitude
in the conference it is believed most
serious situation Will arise as France
Is certain to resist and Great Britain
will support France.
The British government while be-
lleving the conference will finally
reach a satisfactory settlement, real
ICES that the persistence by Germany
In her demands will cause an irrita-
tion which will require all the efforts
Of the delegates to remove and in this
1t expects the support Of the United
States, Spain and Italy.

Edwards Was Not Slain
While in Bed.
BODY EVIDENTLY CARRIED
AND PLACED WHERE FOUND
No Poison Discovered in Stomach
Man Must Have Been Shot
While Standing.

New Haven, Conn, Jan. 6.-The
announcement of the discovery of ev-
ldence pointing to the belief that Mr.
Edwards, the victim of the mystic
rious murder at the Hitler family
homestead, was not shot in the bed
where he was found was the most in
teresting development in the case.
This evidence came to light when the
examination was made of the cloth
ing of the body. On one of the stock
ings, the left one, a blood clot as large
as the end of mans thumb was dis
covered and blood had soaked the
stocking and spread over the top Of
the instep.
This is considered to leave little
doubt that the body was placed in the
guest chamber after the shooting, and
the detectives are working on the the
cry that the man was shot while
standing or in some other position
where the blood from the wound in
the left side of the head would fail
upon his foot. The fact that on the
left stocking also there was a collec-
ton of lint or carpet dirt is believed
to lend color to the theory that he
was dragged i'm an unconscious con-
dtion to the bed. There was no lint
on the stocking which covered the
right foot 1t was said today that two
bullets have been found imbedded in
one of the walls Of the guest cham
ber.
blood eliot on the brain is now
said to have been the cause of death
directly, though it is believed the
clot resulted from the bullet wound
matter, but lodged just under the in
ner surface of the skull at the toT
of the head, after passing through The
upper part of the left ear. The for.
NAL report of n medical examiner or
the direction taken by the bullet and
the cause of death was not given tc
the coroner today as the chemical ex.
animation of the stomach and other
organs had not been completed. This
examination was conducted at tht
| Yale medical school laboratory.
Reports circulated during the day
that poison had been found in tht
body were denied by surgeons who
assisted in the autopsy, but the re.
suit of the chemists examination was
nevertheless awaited with interest.
The search for the pistol witt
| which the crime was committed wen
on today without result, At the cor.
oners office it was said that his re
port on the inquest would not be Civ
en- out tonight. though the investga
ton is about complete.
