NEW WORKERS, 15.4 P. c.;
TO BOSTONIANS, 1875
Judge Hough Condemns as
Cruel False Hopes Held
Out to DepOSitOrS.
DEFENDANTS ARRESTED
sieeel and Vogel Again Plead
Not Guilty-Held Till Backers
Renew Support.

nudge Charles NJ. Hough, in the
United states Court, yesterday ordered
tho Immediate payment OF a dividend
,1b4 per cent to the depositors in the
Henry sfegel & Co. bank who made
their deposits at the main Office in this
c,ty. The Boston depositors. who mad
. total of $4,000, will receive 12.o per
cent
The order Of Judge Hough makes
sure that none OF what Is left OF the
so5O0oOO paid to Henry siegel and
Frank f. vogel will be needlessly spent
IN bankruptcy proceedings. Delay OF
months in paying the depositors will
also be avoided.
In making the order Judge Hough
denounced as cruel the efforts being
made 10 convince the depostors that
they might profit by the examination
uf Siegel and vogel in bankruptcy. He
pointed out that whatever small assets
might be discovered would go TO the in
dividual creditors of the men and not
10 their creditors as co-partners.
All They Are Sure or.
The money ordered paid Is practi-
cally all that the bank depositors are
sure Of. The trustee in bankruptcy
who will wind up the estate may have
p little to distribute, and there IS the
possibility that eventually something
may be realized from the Siegel stores
Corporation stock now held by the re-
ceiver. There is also the possibility
that something may be paid by way of
restitution by Siegel and Nogel, but if
this is done payment would probably
be made through the Depositors Real
ization Corporation. organized for thai
purpose.
While Judge Hough was going over
the papers presented by James n.
Proskauer, counsel for the receiver.
Henry Siegel and Frank Z. Vogel, ac-
tually under arrest in the prisoners
room in the District Attorneys office,
were facing the prospect of spending
the night in the 'Tombs, because the
National Surety Company declined to
renew their bonds on the fourteen new
indictments unless the indemnitors in
Chicago assented to the proceedings
After an hours wait and much -ong
distance telephoning the necessary as
sent was secured and both men were
freed.
Segel and Vogel were placed under
arrest on bench warrants issued when
they failed 10 appear in court yester-
day morning TO plead to the new in

Arthur c. Train told Judge Mulqueen

Washington, April S.--The new treaty
between the United States and Colon
bia, which was signed in Bogota yes
terday. although the State Department
will no. admit it, contains a clause N
which the United States makes moral
reparation' to Colombia by an express
sion Of regret over the severance OF
Panama from Colombia. In addition TO
this, the United States agrees TO in
demnify Colombia for her loss Of terri
tory TO the extent Of S25, 100000.
IL is certain that the treaty will ere
ate row in the Senate. and its rati-
lication is a matter of grave doubt.
Already many Senators have expressed
a determination TO oppose approval of
the convention, which, they consider,
involves national humiliation to an ex-
tent infinitely greater than the circum-
stances justify, and there are predic-
tions that If the administration puts
itself squarely back Of this convention
the fight will be as vicious as that on
the Panama tolls question.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1914-04-09
Colombia Well Satisfied.

Colombia, naturally, is well satisfied
with the arrangement although Colom-
bians here complacenty state that their
country IS getting no more than she de-
serves on account of the loss Of Panama.
The United States gets nothing out o. tho
treaty except a settlement OF ten-year-
old dispute. There has been hope In
Washington that in making an agreement
with Colombia the Secretary OF State
would obtain not only a settlement OF all
differences but also an option on the
Atrato River canal route which the Pear
son interests OF England endeavored 20
obtain last year. as well as exclusive priv
ileSes for the United States concerning
the use OF the Gulf Of Darien and other
Colombian harbors for naval purposes.
Nothing Of the sort, however. appears in
the treaty. and II is considered that a
grievous mistake is being made.
IT will be recalled that some months ago
Lord Murray of Elibank. a partner of
Pearson & Sons, OF which Lord Cowdray,
OF Mexican fame, is the head stated in
London that at one time during his nego-
tiatlons for an oil monopoly in Colombia
he had in his hand a concession for an
interoceanc canal through Colombia
Partly through the influence of the
United States that concession was blocked
at the end of the last session OF the Co
lombian Congress, but it is well known in
the State Department that the matter is
coming up again, and that there are
chances that the bill granting the conces-
sion will be passed by the Colombian
Congress. Agents OF the department are

WEAKNESS IN RINGS
CAUSES POWER LOSS
They Should Be Inspected for
All Showings of Fail
ing Force.
JUST AS TIRE LEAKS AIR
So Does a Piston Leak Compress
sion When There Is a
Bad Cylinder Fit.
JUST AS TIRE LEAKS AIR

The named power OF an automobile or
motor boat engine defines the amount of
work IL Is able to do. Properly operated
the engine may be expected to produce
this power, but only for so long as
every component part OF II Is faithful
and efficient in the performance OF the
particular function for which II was de-
signed. A defect Ia any part Is defect
OF the whole and no better or palmer
proof OF this can be found than in its
application to piston rings. Faulty rings
will counteract the highest grade fuel,
the best carburation and the most exact
valve action.
Where compression is poor tho explo-
sion IL weakened and the horsepower OF
the motor reduced. There Is no escaping
the consequences of poor compression, and
you cannot get good compression where
badly lifting, improperly designed piston
rings are used any more than you can
hold air In 4 punctured tire.
The comparison is perfectly logical.
Compressed gas in the cylinder head acts
Just as compressed air In an inflated tire.
The weak point is discovered and the
attack concentrated upon II. The results
OF this are more vlvidly brought TO your
attention In the case OF the t!re--in the
case of the motor they are apt to be
overlooked until the leakage reaches such
proportions as to seriously cripple II.
The weak point In tho engine is the
piston ring. The ordinary type OF ring

Great Feat.

Q. @. Bennett vice. president Of the Gen.

this morning Santiago. Highest. $4,000
Feet. Everything snow above Il.0OO Ter
rtble cold. Two weeks In mountains.
Crossing Continental Divide never before
accomplished. Great excitement in San.

Many attempts have been made in the
past fve years by European drivers with
French and German cars to successfully
cross the Andes Mountains. which consti-
tute the Great Continental Divide Of South
America None OF these attempts had
been successful. but johnson Martin. mani
aser OF the Buick Motor Company's
branch in Buenos Ayres. Argentina, be-
lieved that the feat could he accom-.

and had been studying the mountain trails
and arranging equipment for the attempt
for year past.

tina to the city OF Mendoza, a distance Of
about 1000 miles. After leaving Men

Of him whatever had been received until
the cabh despatch from Santiago. Chile,
advising that the great feat had been &C
con1plished. The Andes Mountains at this
point arc crossed by mule trail sufficiently
vide for the use OF pack animals but
difficult even for men on foot and mules
on account Of the narrow trail cut along
the mountain sides. together with the great
altitude and intense cold.
The automobile was arranged with
every possible item of equipment that
might assist In mountain climbing, such
as ropes. tackle. shovels, picks and even
a small blasting outfit also the usual
South American rough country outfit
This outfit consists of two rolls OF cam
vas over 100 feet in length. with heavy
ground spikes at one end OF each roll
When encounter!ng ground too slippery
or too precipitate for the wheels to hold
by their own tractive effort these canvas
strips are laid out to form sort OF
roadway, are spiked down at the forward
end and the back ends OF the canvas
fastened TO the rear wheels of the car
This converts the back wheels of the car
into a sort OF wlndlass and IL u enabled in
this way 10 wind itself out OF difficulties

the builders OF the Overland experimental

decided they were not practical for the
Overland. No owner likes TO SEQ his ma.

wheels require extra care OH account oil
the many exposed surfaces. and without
thoroughly cleaning and drying after
every run in bad weather they will rust
out.
ION the new Overland the wooden
wheels have been improved ,ust rs every
