Appeals

Chicago, Jan. 3.-Attorneys for the

for a writ of supersedeas and the re-

Judges G. c. Kohlsatt, F. E Baker
and William H. Seaman were in court
to hear the argum ments.
The petition was presented to the
court at 1920. 1t alleged the defend
ants had been denied their rights in
the refusal of their liberty by Judge
their appeal Judge Anderson had
refused to grant the defense's appeal
for a. writ of supersedeas.
Attorney Soline said that a writ Of
error had been granted by Judge
Anderson but that a supersedeas had
been denied the prisoners pending the
direction of that writ and they had
been sent to the penitentiary.
Attorney KruR followed Soline.
'"The defend 4ts." he said. ''wera

william a. Gray, of Philadelphia,
assisted in representing the men.
The judges hearing the argument
indicated early in the address of At
torney SoIine that they would prob
ably rule against him on the two inn
portant points for which he is con-

soline argued that the defendants
need not make a substantial showing
of their right to supersedeas and that
a writ of supersedeas was an abso-

fDo you mean to say that a show

is a matter of right?'' tnterjected
Judge Baker. Eyes, similar cases in
United States courts have established
that the writ of supersedeas is a mat
ter of right and that no man may be
deprived of his liberty until a de-
cision in the court of last resort has
been Obtained
Judge Seaman then interrupted: "a
supersedeas is not an absolute right
"a writ of error is he said.

MORE DELAY IN
CONFERENCE OF
PEACE ENJOYS
Balkan Allies Threaten to Re-
new War if Turkey Doesn't
Give up Adrianople

London Jan. 3-The Turkish-Ba1kan
peace negotiations will probably be
broken off, this afternoon; and the
Balkan alliance will renew the war
Immediately if Turkey does not con-
sent to give up Adrianople at today's
session of the ST. James Palace peace
conference.
That was the decision of the p1eni-
potentiaries of the allies at infor-
NAL meeting held, today, before the
convening of the peace conference
which was scheduled to, resume at 4
z. M, after a 48 hour recess.
The Balkan delegates agreed among
themselves that Adrianople was the
crlx of the situation and that if the
Ottoman delegates refused to consent
to the cessation of the holy city there
was no use of further parley-
From a Semi-officfal source, today,
it was learned that the delegates of
the allies, in a consultation at one of
their hotels voted to give Turkey "a
hours in which to agree to cede Adri-
anople. At the expira ton of that time,
it was said, the Balkan envoys agreed
to walk out Of the peace negotiations
ana advise their governments to renew
hostilities against the Turk.
The Turks again, this afternoon,
were unable to decipher additional in
structfons sent in code by telegraph
from ConstantinopIe and the opening
of the peace conference was delayed an
hour, IN consequence.
