MINISTER
ENTERS PROTEST
AGAINST GERMANY
T1Y Leased WlRE.1

WASHINGTON. Aug. 24.-A strong
protest against the alleged violation
by the Germans of the rules Of civil
lied warfare was filed with the state
department today by Minister Have
NTH Of Belgium. The Belgian protest
came as the answer to a similar &C.
ton by Germany with respect to the
Belgians some days ago.
Minister Havenith informed the
state department that Belgium had not
been guilty Of the violation Of the con-
vention In any manner. but that on the
other hand Germany has been guilty
with the Hague convention.
Belgium" said Minister Havenith,
demands an international investiga-
ton of the cruelty practiced by the
German troops upon the defenseless
Belgian peasants."

Story Of Accident Probe
Discloses No Facts.

A clever decept1on pnct1ced b. q
discharged employe Of Hipslind and
Son. contractors who gave his name
as Fred Shaw. deceived q number Of
citizens Saturday night until someone

at his story.
Shaw's game was TO act daxsd. en-
ter store and talk incoherently Of an

ter was injured and his mother and
another sister were killed. Il is be-
lieved BY the police he was trying to
secure money on this ruse.
Shaw entered drug store on Main
street and gave his name of Fred
Shaw. which he is believed to have
assumed temporarily. He then rela-
ted . spectacular story of the acct
dent which he said occurred near
Cumberland. q small town near the
Marion and Hancock county line.
Tells Of Crash.
He said the party was travelling
from Los Angeles to PittsburI In tho
machine. At this point they were
driving slowly, his story ran. A big
racing car was seen coming from the
opposite direction swerving from side
to side. To permit It to pass. they
drew up to one side and stopped. but
their machine was struck. The force
Of the impact threw every one to tho
road side. He said he was Knocked
insensible and when he became con-
scfous he found he was In . physS-
! clans automobile being driven toward
Certerville. . distance Of forty miles
from the accident.
At this point Q Richmond man inter
rupted him saying he recognized him
as man who had been lAboring hero
for some time and had recently been
discharged. Shaw denied he had ever
been in this city before.
An Investigation Of the story BY IN
Indianapolis newspaper revealed that
the cor0ners Of Hancock and Marion
! counties knew nothing Of the acct
dent and that no bodies had been
found any place. nor were there
traces along the road Of An accident.
The police here looked for The nan
yesterday. but he could net be located.
