Offer Friendly Advice to Lon

Nations.

LONDON, Jan. There is prac-
tically no disposition in London to
doubt that as soon as the delegates
of Bulgaria, Greece, Montenegro and
Servia have celebrated the orthodox
Christmas holiday the peace confer
ence will be resumed.
There is deep-seated reluctance
among all parties against the reopen
ing of hostilities, although threats of
such an eventuality are still uttered
in some quarters
At the same time the representa-
tives of the European powers are
busily occupied in offering friendly
advice to the various antagonists,
and in case this should prove insult
ficient, the ambassadors are seeking
for the best method of Intervention
in order to settle the crucial questions
of the future ownership of Adrianople
and the islands in the Aegean sea.
Speculation is rife concerning the
method of providing an issue from
the present deadlock.
1t is asserted that Rechad Pasha,
the principal Turkish delegate, has
telegraphed to Constantinople asking
to be authorized to reconvoke the con-
ference, in order that he may make
some explanations which he was pre-
vented from giving yesterday, owing
to the brusque suspension of the ses-
sion.

enough into the stock market af-
fairs of the California Petroleum

that twenty-four officers of national
banks in New York. Chicago, Detroit
and Milwaukee participated in a syn
dicate formed to market its shares
at a profit of s5O,000 None was re-
quired to put up any money.
When the committee tried to draw
from George G. Henry, of the New
York firm of Solomon & Co, who
was giving the testimony. the names
of the banks and their officers, it
struck a snag. and the question of
the committees power to inquire
into the business of national banking
associations was again raised. Mr..
Henry fatty declined to give the
names, and read into the record his
reasons in the form of a statement
prepared by former Senator John c..
Spooner, which set out that the COM
mittee was acting outside of its au-
thority in that line of questioning.
Chairman Pujo assured Mr.. Henry
that the investigators would recon-
mend to the full committee and the
House that he be held in contempt,
but the witness was firm in his de-
termination not to answer.
Samuel Untermyer pressed the wit
ness closely for his opinion of pro-
priety of national banks or their off,

make loans upon stock taking an
