THE CHILD PROBLEM
AND IT'S SOLUTION.
One Expert Advocate Outdoor Work
For Those Cooped Up in Mills.

Louisville, KY, Jan. 30.-Pur-

plan, already worked out to some
degree, whereby the children of the
factory employees should contrib ute
to the support of the family by
gardening.
Teachers should be competent to
instruct in agriculture and animal
husbandry, he declared, and should
be engaged for the year through the
winter school room work to Dc
gradually lessened as the time for
putting in the gardens approached
until the work of out doors industry
should use all of the child's working
day
There is plenty of land in or
near all these towns, he said; the
project thoroughly feasible, and he
asserted under the more favorable
the child gardener, doing
what he would enjoy doing, could
contribute toward the support or
himself and the family at least as
much as now when he works long

same principle, he thought, could be
worked out along other lines in
other districts.

WALL STREET KNOCKING
Boosts WOODROW WILSON
Representative A. s. Burleson, o.
Texas, Comes Out Strong for
the Jersey Governor.

Theodore Tiller, the Washington
correspondent of the Atlanta GeoI
gian, sends his paper the followins
under date of January 27:
Declaring that the Wilson-Harve,
incident has strengthened Governor
! Woodrow Wilson, who has rejected
Wall Street aid, Representative A.
49, Burleson of Texas. chairman of
the house democratic caucus, an
nounced that he favored the nomi-
nation of Wilson for president. Mr.
Burleson expresses a warm person
al regard for Speaker Champ Clark,
whom he picks for second place, but
he regards Governor Wilson as the
logical man to lead the democracy
to success. In his announcement.
Representative Burleson says:
II can not conceive that any ore
who is really for Governor Wilson
and what he represents in politics
has been influenced against the New
Jersey governor because he has re-
fused to let Colonel Harvey tie hic
up with the Wall Street game.
II can perceive the disappoint-
ment of some political highbinders

WILSON ATTENDS DEBATE
Hears Tariff Discussion in Ber-
muda's Parliament.

Hamilton. Bermuda, Dec. wood
row Wilson heard to-day the first tar
if discussion since his election as
President Of the United States. He
visited the Bermuda Parliament. where
he was loudly cheered, and sat among
the members for three hours listening
to the debate on the vegetable sched-
ules and observing the methods OF
budget legislation.
In reply to the welcome extended by
the Speaker, Mr.. Wilson said:
I have been interested in the debate,
thinking that II we every year went
through the items OF expenditure anu
revenue for twelve months there Would pc
n continuous performance which would
excel ANYTHING the theatres could ever
produce. But the idea Is an admirable
one because Il affords the House con-
slant opportunity TO review the changing
circumstances Of the colony. l nave ad-
mired the businesslike manner OF getting
through the estimates.
Mr.. Wilson said he thought that
yearly revision of the American tariH
schedules such as obtained In Bermuda
would be impracticable. 1t would be
impossible to discuss the estimates and
revenue simultaneously. but he wished
that the United States would adopt
some budget scheme.
The President elect was a principal
in a first aid" case this morning. He
rescued honeymoon couple who fell
from their bicycles in front OF his
house. The bride was slightly injured
and one of Mr.. Wilson's daughters as
sisted In bathing her wounds.

behind the girdle of the Polish for
tresses. All the Polish regiments have
been sent either to the interior or the
Caucasus.
The paper adds that more than a
hundred Russian spies have been ar

MYSTERY ST|RS ENGLAND
Discovery of Woman's Body on
Rocks Raises Legal Questions.
MANS SUICIDE INVOLVED
Latter Bequeathed Her $780,
600, and Question Arises,
Did She Inherit It.
IBy Cable to The Tribune.

London. Dec. 3.-What is known as
the HOW'LL mystery has become more
mysterious than ever by the discovery
Of Mrs. Nowill's body among the rocks
at Newquay, Cornwall. Interest in the
case, already great, has been intensi-
fled by this tragic sequel.
Mrs. Nowill, accompanied by her
mother, Mrs. Foster, went to Newquay
about three weeks ago and stayed at
the Atlantic Hotel. Among other Wis.,
itors at the hotel was James Arthur
Delay, a retired solicitor Of Singapore.
whom Mr.. and Mrs. HOW'LL met some
time before on a journey to Egypt,
and with whom they were on friendly
terms Nowill, at the inquest on De-
lay, stated that he understood from
his wife that Delay was staying at the
hotel, but he did not think there was
anything strange in that.
Delay and Mrs. HOW'LL went about
together, and on November % re-
turned together to the hotel about 4:45
D.
and it was evident that she had gone
out In golfing clothes and had made no
preparation for a journey. A search
was instituted the same evening, and
Delay, who was greatly upset at the
woman's disappearance, was out until
late hour.
Lieutenant West, coastguard OFF,
Ger, was attempting to find Mrs. No
will, when Delay, apparently over
wrought by anxiety, raised his stick 10
West and said: "You must do some-
thing or I'll kill YOU" Later he at
tempted to throw himself over the cliff,
but was restrained by West after
desperate struggle.
The search was continued throughout
the night and on Sunday. In the even
ing Delay retired to his room early,
and next morning was found hanging
dead behind his door. At the inquest
codicjl to Delays will was produced,
bv which he left Mrs. HOW'LL S1JO,WU
A statement was made also at the
Coroner's inquiry by the coast guard
who said that at $40 p. m. on Novem-
ber % he saw a lady and gentleman
walking toward the lifeboat house.
Through his glass he could see the
gentleman walk few yards and then
take hold OF the lady's hand. she
would then push him away, and the
immersion the coast guard received
was that of a couple having an alter
cation. The jury returned a verdict
Of felo de sc.
Since then HOW'LL and Mrs. Foster
have remained al. Newquay in the hope
Of news OF Mrs. HOW'LL. Now the ques-
ton arises, Have Mrs. NowilPs heirs
or next of kin any claim to the S15O,OOO
or does the person who takes the
residuary interest under Delays will
inherit? The law is clear. If the codicil
is not in order, then the legatee under
the will inherits; II in order. the i'm
portant question arises, Did Mrs. No
will survive Mr.. Delay? Here, again,
the law is clear. II Mrs. Nowilps death
occurred after Delay committed sui
eide. then the heirs or next or Kin IN
turn will inherit the fortune. IL, how
ever, she predeceased the legator the
| legacy lapsea.

ARMISTICE NEGOTIATIONS
Greeks, It Is Feared, Wish to
Continue War.

Sofia. Dec. 1.-The plenipotentiaries
held a meeting at 3 o'clock this after
noon at Baghtche but it is considered
doubtful II any definite conclusion re-
gardine the armistice will be reached
before Tuesday night or Wednesday.
The important points Of the armistice
have already been settled, such as the
retention by the respective armies or
the positions they now occupy.
The question Of the Bulgarians using
the Adrianople railway, it is asserted,
will probably be dropped, as will also
tho Turkish counter demand for per-
mission to send food to the garrison
there This is regarded as utterly i'm
possible. The Adrianople railway Is
now less indispensable to Bulgaria, be-
cause great supplies Of wheat have
been discovered at Dedeagatch, with a
mill capacity Of many tons Of -four
daily. which can be sent by railway
direct to the troops at Tchatald1a.
The third clause of the protocol re-
lating to the blockade Of the ports on
the Black Sea and the Egean Is not
considered vitality important and will
probably give rise to no contention.
II any further delay occurs In the
completion. Of the armistice 1t is felt
here that the blame will rest with the
Greeks, who. for some inscrutable
reason, wish to continue the war.
Bulgaria, Servia and Montenegro favor
peace. Turkey also Is believed to be
actuated by the same desire.
According to reliable information re-
ceived aere, Great Britain and Russia.
as we'll as Germany. have counselled
Turkey to make peace. and it is ex-
pected that negotiations to this end
will begin shortly at Sofia. The Turks
nroposed to hold the peace conference
at Brussels, and the Greeks suggested
Constantinople. but the other allies
favor the Bulgarian capital.
King Ferdinand, accompanied by. the
minister Of finance, has left Sonia for
Tchataldja, and this Is regarded as
positive indication that the armistice
is at the point Of completion.

Charles Hayden, representing the conn
pany, said the nostal tube service was
essentially a government enterprise and
that his company desired to sell out be-
cause. unless its contracts were renewed
for long periods. the property would re-
vert to the cities granting rights OF way
and there would be no chance to get back

now pays $1,000 a mile for the use of the

EUROPE REASSURED BY
ATTITUDE OF GERMANY
Servia May Submit Her Cause to the Hague
Arbitration Tribunal-Jealousy Acute
Between Bulgaria and Greece.

In the fortified triangle formed Dy Crd-
COW, Tomaszow and Przemysl. Around
Lemberg and along the frontier en-
trenchments are now being dug and the
vast plain covered with wire entangle-
ments to check the possible advance OF
the Russian cavalry.
THE second, or eastern army, Is
gathering in Pennsylvania and Buko-
wilma along the Russian frontier. the
third, or southern army, Will operate
partly from the south of Hungary
against Belgrade and Semendria, to
force a passage over the Danube into
the Moravian Valley, and partly from
Bosnia and Herzegovina against the
Western Servian frontier and the Sem
jak Of Novipazar."
There is no doubt that acute jealousy
exists between Greece and Bulgaria.
| Greece asserts that the Greek fleet
played an important role in the war,
especially in preventing Turkey from
moving her troops by sea- and thdt
without her naval assistance the allies
could not have achieved such Drill
liant success. The race between the
| Greeks and the Bulgarians for the &C.
cupation of Salonica and the incidents
which followed this increased the Ill
feeling, and now the Greeks consider
that their interests are being sacrificed
in the peace negotiations.
In a dispatch from Constantnople the
correspondent of THE Daily MALI says
the delay in effecting an armstice
seems to be due to the Greeks desiring
the surrender of Yanina TO themselves
and scutari to the Montenegrins, and
to their objection to raising the block
ade on the Albanian coast. The CORE
spondent adds that 1t is also believed
the Greeks want to obtain effective pos
session of the Island Of Chios,' off the
west coast of Asia Minor, where heavy
lighting continues with the Ottoman
troops, who retired to the mountains
when the Greeks landed.
1T is significant" the correspondent
says in conclusion, that a heavy con-
tract for military stores was signed by
the Porte yesterday, large price being
paid for their speedy delivery. If the
enemys peace terms are too severe
Turkey will naturally be tempted to
wait to see whether the hurricane
which threatens Europe may not bring
her better things"
The Daily Telegraph" prints the fol-
lowing dispatch from Bucharest:
"Rumania is working automatically
and is also making strenuous prepare
tons to support her claims for some
part I'm the partition Of Turkey as d
reward for her neutrality. The Ru-
manian government is not formulating
any demands for presentation To Bull

TBy Cable to The Tribune.

London, Dec. 6.-No armistice at
Tchataldja has yet been signed, but 1t
must not be considered that this implies
any serious hitch between Turkey and
the allies. According to a message
from Sofia the delay is due entirely to
Greece. this power being roundly
charged with wishing to continue the
conflict in contrast to the desires Of
the other partners in the league, who,
equally with Turkey, want peace.
In this respect the position presents
somewhat of mystery, which. however,
it is believed in Sofia, will be cleared
up to-day or tomorrow by the sig
nature Of the document.
The Greek Minister in Paris, in an
interview, lends color to the theory of
discord between Bulgaria and his own
country, for he declares that Greece
will on no account accept the armistice
in its present form.
A semi-official newspaper in Sofia
says the Greek delegates have received
instructions to sign the truce, but this
is not yet confirmed.
Any doubt which may have remained
as to the intentions and policy Of Ger
many in the unhappy event of Euro
pean complications arising out Of the
Balkan settlement is finally dispelled
by the important speech delivered In
the Reichstag yesterday by the Impe-
rial Chancellor. In the course OF his
address, which rather surprised the
house by it's unexpected brevity. the
Chancellor expressed his conviction
that the readjustment map rendered
necessary by the events Of the wal
| would be carried out peacefully, but he
added the following grave and signifi-
| cant words:
"Shoud, as we hope will not be the
case. insoluble antagonisms then ap'
pear, il will be tho affair Of tho power
directly interested in the individual in
stance to assert its claims. That hold:
qood for our allies also, but II, con-
trary to all expectation, they should IN
the assertion Of their interests be e
tackled from third side, and their ex'
istence thereby threatened, then IN
fidelity to our treaty obligations we
should have to place ourselves firmly
and unhesitatinaly at their side, and
then we should be fighting for the
maintenance Of our own position n
Europe and for the defence OF our owr
future and security"
This declaration. which places or
public record the attitude which 1t Il
known the German government has
maintained throughout the crisis. refers
Of course to the difficulties which ex-
ist between Austria and Servia and tC
the possibility that the latter may ever
vet believe she can rely upon Russian
support If she defles the Dual Mon
archy.
According to a Belgrade despatch
the Servian government intends aftel
peace has been concluded, to submit
her cause to the powers OF to Th'
Hague arbitration tribunal.
A despatch from Lemberg. capital o.
Galicia, says that The run on savings
banks and the rush to change papel
money into coin continue Throughout
| Galicia, owing to the war scare.
The Belgrade correspondent OF The
Daily Chronicle" gives the following
outline of the Austrian war plans:
Austria is forming three armies, two
directed against Russia and one against
Servia. The first, or northern army. e
defend Galicia, is being concentrated
