lice say, has long record as a post

company's branch stores today and iden-
titled Truax, Clark and Duval as the
men who had rifled their safes and
cash drawers of sums varying from
5000 to several thousand dollars.

in similar bail on one charge each,

tive Sims of Tennessee and Charles c..
Glover, a local banker and capitalist,
met today at Andrew Jackson's monu-
ment in Lafayette square, just across

some acrimonious things to say about
Mr. Glover's connection with real es-
tate operations here in which the gov
ernment had to do with acquiring more
land for Rock Creek park.
1t was also the first time since Mr..
Glover. before congressional COM
mittee, had said some things about Mr..
Sims.
The preliminaries, SO far as is known.
were without witnesses, but those who
arrived shortly after declared that Mr..
Sims told Mr.. Glover he considered he
bad done his duty, and that Glover re-
piled it was his intention to proceed
to do his.
What happened before the peace
makers intervenedl is shrouded In some
vagueness. However, Mr.. Sims later
proceeded to the capitol and Mr.. Glover
proceeded to his bank.
Michael Mullins of the Washington
park department. who was at work
with pruning fork, declined to give
| the views of a man up tree. Mr..
| Sims afterward declared the affair
closed the vitriolic incident.

TO PROBE INCIDENT
AT NANCY SUNDAY
Germans Claim Citizens
Were Insulted by
French

Faris, April 1s.-Minister of interior
Klotz, after consideration in conjunction
with Premier Barthou, the representative
gate, who investigated the incident al
Nancy Sunday, when several Germans
were insulted by French students, de-
cided tonight that the prefect of the de-
partment shall be given some other ap
pointment' for neglecting to inform the
minister of the interior OF the incident
1T was decided also that two of the
city police commissaries of Nancy shat
be transferred elsewhere, as the frs
step in a complete reorganization of the
police service and that the two police
men ON duty at the railroad station al
the time of the incident shall be dis
charged.
Foreign Minister Piohon tonight
communicated these decisions to Herr
Won Schoen, the German ambassador,
and the incident is now regarded as
closed.
The report of NJ. Ojier. which was
published tonight, finds that the Incl
dents at the Nancy Casino, where the
German men and women are alleged to
have been insultcd, and in the city
streets where they are said to have
been derided and jostled, were of no
Importance. At the railway station,
however, the situation was more seri-
Gus. Here 1t was said the Germans were
kicked, struck and spat upon while the
railway officials, policeman and SOL
oiers looked on and laughed.
The report says that the railroad Buffet
|, at Nancy is open all night, and is the
haunt of the dregs of the population, who
go there when the saloons are closed.
This according to the report, was respon-
sble for the incident. Two policemen,
it says, utterly failed to do their duty.
The morning newspapers generally CON-
mend the severe punishment meted out to
the Nancy officials as vindicaton of
the traditions of the French hospitality
and courtesy. They think it will show
Germany that the acts of noisy vulgarians
will not meet with the slightest approval

Hendry of the Union Protestant infirm-

application of his recent discovery-the
silver cure.
The treatment consists of injections of
a silver compound solution, which is first
injected and then syphoned through the
arteries, mixing with the blood and
cleansing it of all impurities and infec-
tions. When DR.. Prince was first admit
ted to the institution, 1t was feared that
1t would be necessary to amputate his

poison has been checked in a sufficient
degree as to render amputation unneces-
sary.
Dr. Hendry's cure has proved phe-
nomenal success in previous cases. DR..
