the defendant. The public and the
court don't feel satisfied with this
result. For those of you who have
earnestly endeavored to procure h
differtnt result, the court desires to
extend to you its sincere thanks for
your efforts to render justice"
At Hickey's request the imposition
Of sentence was deferred until Mon
day. The penalty is not less than
20 years at hard labor In states

Hickey, after buying young Josephs

TURKEY AGAIN IS
CAUSE Of DELAY
ALLIES DECLARE POLICY OF DE-
LAY MUST COME TO
AN END.
AN IMPORTANT Meeting
Turkey Demands They BE Allowed to
Rc,ictualize the Garrison at
AdrianOple.

LONDON, Dec, 21.-Turkey Is
playing the old game Of delay and
has caused a further postponement
Of the oft-delayed peace conference,
which adjourned TO Monday after a
brief and fruitless session this after
noon. 1t is evident that the Turkish
delegates are trying to gain the right
to provision Adrianople by consent
Ing to include Greece in the confer
ence. The allies are anxious to pro-
ceed with the negotiations and have
openly hinted that these delays must
come to an end.
Today's sitting was the most I'M
portant since the beginning OF the
! conference, as It was the first time
the opposite parties had come into
serious engagement, which Is pre-
lmlnary to the crucial question over
the possession OF Adrianople.
The Montenegrin ex-premier, Mil
yuskovitch, who presided, seemed on
account of his rather severe and i'm
perious aspect to be the best presl-
dent for the occasion Of stormy
sitting. When the president asked
Rechad Pasha to communicate In
confidence the answer which he had
received from Constantinople, there
was moment Of breathless silence.
Rechad Pasha rose and outlined
the Instructions he had received to
the effect that Turkey should not
treat with Greece, as the latter state
had put herself out Of the negotia-
tions by refusing to adhere to the
armistlce. But, he added. wishing to
show lenlent spirit and a concilia-
tory disposition, and also out OF re-
gard for Europe, Turkey was willing
to treat, on condition that the allies
In return granted the privilege Of
revictualllng Adrianople.
This, he pointed out. was simply
humanitarian request as there
were more than 10000 people suf-
fering from lack OF food, besides the
belligerents. Revictualling this fort
ress, he argued, would not change
the situation as It existed when the
armistice was concluded, at which
time the Bulgarians declared they
could seize Adrlanople whenever they
wished, or force Tchatalja.
Rechad Pasha's statement caused
a great sensation and the Balkan del
egates exchanged impressions in
whispers among themselves.
The head of the Turkish delega-
ton continued to illustrate the Otto
man viewpoint, which aimed to limit
as much as possible disasters and
sufferings from the war, by supplying
to Adrianople what Is strictly neces-
sary to sustain life.

NO ACTION ON The Canal
Delegate Declares Business Interests
oi World will Bring About In

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.--A mo-
ton that the supreme court Of the
United States might offer to act as
arbiter in international disputes
made at todays session OF the Amer
lean society for the judicial settle
ment OF International disputes, was
promptly rejected. The motion was
by Bert Russell OF Forest Glen, Md
Frederic X. Coudert of New York
who Immediately took up the cud-
gels after the motion. declared that
II would be the height of impropriety
for society whose basic principle
was respect for law to suggest OF
recommend something which would
be contrary to the constitution of the
nlted States. The motion was not
seconded and was dropped.
No action was taken by the society
night by Everett p. Wheeler of New
York, to the effect that the United
States should declare its willingness
to submit to arbitration the Panama
canal controversy between Great
Britain and this country The exc
cutive committee, to which the reso.
luton was referred made no recon-
mendation, declaring in It's opinion
the most good could be accomplish
ed by the organization In permitting
free individual discussion of all the
questions without committing the So
c!cty as a whole.
Business is the great social power
which will do more than any other
factor In bringing about the estab-
lishment of international tribunes, in
the opinion expressed by Omar f.
TIershy. Baltimore. He argued that
big international business solves
peacably problems as great as any
that face the advocates of interna-
tional peace
Business is developing spirit
throughout the world" he declared,
which Is helping to make war i'm
possible. The international features
of business are aiding in breaking
down the barriers between nations.
business Knows no country. A fin
anc'al disturbance in Beunos Ayres
Is felt in the other capitals of the
world, and for this reason big inter-
national business Is opposed to war
and finds a way Of settling its prob
lens without war"
Mr. Hershy declared that the prac-
tlcal business man was inclined to
look with more or less Of skeptici I'M
on peace societies and on the work
which such bodies as the American
society for the judicial settlement of
international disputes was trying to
do The reason for this he added,
was because war still continued But
the business man, he added, could
and should be reached. If the peace
societies are to succeed, he said.
they must appeal to the business
man, the dominating social force of
the world today. Business acts with
dlrectness, he asserted, and this is
one Of the things needed in the In
ternatlonal peace work
william p. Hornblower of New
expressed the opinion that the United
