ROME. February 15.--Private dis
patches from Athens say the impress
sion prevails there that Turkey will
satisfy the Greek demands growing out
of the alleged insult to nm attache Of
the Greek legation at Constantinople.
1t is argued that Turkey cannot afford
at present to add Greece to the number
OF her enemies. particularly In view OF
the fact that she knows Greece Is ready
to enter at once on a campaign to re-
deem the lands Inhabited by Greece still
under Turkish control.

LABOR COUNCIL WANTS
NEW HIGH SCHOOL
NAMED FOR HEBERLE

The Central Labor Council by unani-
nous standing vote last Tuesday night
appointed committee to wait on the
Board of Education and urge it to name
the new high school "TIeberle," in mem
ory of Joseph Heberle.
The committee is A. Radke, William
Prout and F. l.. Kitchens.
1t was recalled that the board some
time ago adopted resolution that the
next school it built should bear the
name of Heberle. However. the claims
of others who have rendered service to
the cause of education have been given
preference.
But it is now said that the new East
ern hills high school will be absolutely
a new school, and new high school at
that This, it is said, affords an oppor
tunity for the board to keep its promise.
In testimonial to Heberle, former
Superintendent +. B. Dyer said 30
seph Heberle was one of the first men
met on coming to Cincinnati. Among
all the disinterested friends of educa
ton in that city, | found none more
devoted than he. He seemed possessed
OF remarkable wisdom and foresight
and had unusual powers of conciliation.
In developing industrial education |
found him an active agent and an ever
present friend. He made great personal
sacrifices in order to advance the inter
ests of the children of Cincinnati and to
promote the cooperation of all classes.
All things considered. he was one of
the most remarkable men | have ever
known"

MAYOR PICKS
zoo COMMISSION
Five Men Are Named to Advise on
Famous Gardcn-Lcgislatur May
BE Asked for Authority to Issue
Bonds for Purchase of Property.

Mayor Spiegel, November 27, named
George w. Weldon, S. r. Meyer, An
dreas +. Burkhardt, August Hermann
and Alfred Mack commission to de-
wise means to save the Geological Garden
for the city. The members of the COM
mission will serve without pay. The
authority for the appointment of the
commission recently was given to the
Mayor by Council. 1t is thought that
an effort will be made to determine upon
a plan that will make the Zoo a munich
pally-owned institution, to be operated
in connection with the city's park sys-
TEN. To do this, however, bond issue
would be required, and an appeal may be
made to the Legislature to give the city
special authority to place such a debt
outside of the Longworth limitation
Mayor Spiegel stated that he ap-
pointed Mr.. Weldon, despite the fact
that he is a resident of Norwood be-
cause he was Chairman of the Citizens
Committee that arranged Zoo Week,
which proved of great financial aid to
that institution. He always has shown
an active interest in the Zoo, and the
Mayor stated that his services in behalf
of the garden will mean great deal for
its future. Mr.. Weldon is General Pas
senger Agent for the Pennsylvania
Lines.
Andreas Burlhardt was Vice Presi-
dent of the Citizens Committee, and also
rendered valuable assistance in making
Zoo Week a success. He is one of Gin
cinnat's leading retail merchants.
Mr.. Meyer is member of the firm
OF Meyer. Wise & Kaichen, and always
has been active in civic affairs.
August A. Hermann is President of
the Cincinnati Baseball Club. He has
been identified with various civic affairs
and is looked upon as one of the ablest
business men in the city.
Albert w. Mack is a member of the
law firm of Cohen & Mack.

NEW SCHOOL BUILDING
SCENE OF SHOOTING
Electrician Says He Was Shot i'm
Arm by Painter.

AS the result of shooting atfray in
the new Lafayette Bloom School, under
course of construction at Bank and Bay
miller streets, last Tuesday, excitement
reigned in the neighborhood for time.
Sam Keller, 25, of Frankfort avenue,
College Hill, an electrician, employed on
the new building, was shot in the right
arm. According to the police report,
Keller was standing on a stepladder
when the painter, whose name could not
be learned, brushed against the ladder.
Keller cautioned him. and, it is said, an
argument ensued which ended in Keller,
so it is claimed, descending the ladder
and striking the painter knocking him
down a short flight of steps. 1t was
stated at the building that the painter,
when he arose to his feet, drew a pistol
and fired. The painter disappeared but
none of the workmen near the various
entrances, saw him leave the building.
Keller went to the office of DR.. Sieferet,
where the wound was dressed, after
which he went home.

TARIFF QUESTION DISCUSSED
photographers Declare That and La
Dor Will Play Important Part
in Industry After the War.
CINCINNATI IS PRAISED by
BUFFALO DELEGATE.

Tariff and its reference to labor con-
ditions after the war, because of the
cheap photographic labor in Germany and
the influx of the photographic products
on this country, was one Of the i'm
portant questions discussed at the con-
venton of the National Association of
Employing Lithographers at the Sinton.
Tariff plays an important part with
the lithographing industry because the
labor in Germany, from which most of
the foreign work comes, is considerably
cheaper than this country

Escapes a SIaShing.

Four men have been arrested by
Special officer Shannon and a corps
of men from the local police depart
ment for the alleged entrance and
robbery of freight cars in the local
yards of the New York Central lines.
Mrs. Godliva BorkOwslxi, 1912 w. Po-
land St, at whose home $50 pounds
of flour was discovered by officers
armed with search warrants, attempt
ed to assault Shannon with a butcher
knife, the officers declare.
John Widalski, a boarder there, it
is also charged, attempted to assault

other officers. He is being held for
interfering with an officer in dis
charge of his duty.
Frank Kujawski, $50 Jackson St,
Frank Gramsey. 1913 w. Sample St,
and John Mihlaski, 2OO9 w Sample
St, are being held under charges of

charge Of Juvenile officer Miller.
Kujawski was arraigned in city court
for grand larceny Friday morning. He
pleaded not guilty and his case was
continued.
The thefts are said to have covered
a period of several days Monday.
Tuesday and Wednesday of this week
are said TO have been the days in
which most of the thefts were ac-
cOmplished. Flour, beans and other
household commodities were said to
have been taken and been sold for
less than One~tenth of their real value.
Mrs. Borkowski and Mrs. Mary Wi
tucki, 2011 w. Sample St, were
charged by the officers with having
bought the goods from the alleged Of
tenders.
Steve Wituck, son of Mrs Mary
Witucki, was alleged by Gramsey and
Mihalsh TO have compelled them at
the point of a revolver to enter the
cars to get whatever Witucki deemed
the most marketable produce. The
thefts are all alleged to have occurred
in the oliver yards of the New York
Central lines.

CHARGE JUSTICE
WAS RETAINED
TO AID QUILHOT
Deputy Prosecutor Objects to
Hearing of IndeCenCy Case
Before Long, Declaring Lat
ter Personally Interested.

Further developments Friday in
the case of J. II. Quilnot vice in
vestigator. indicate that, after all. the
detective may not be tried on the
charge of public indecency before
Justice Long OF Mishawaka. The
charge has been brought by Naomi
Burnside and the case was to have
been tried before Justice Peak Fri
day afternoon. Attorneys for Quill
hot, however, secured a change or
venue TO the court of Justice Long
at AIishawalIa and the hearing was
set for next Monday morning.
Considerable interest was aroused
among lawyers at the court house
Friday forenoon when Deputy Pros.
Swartz faced an attorney for QuilhOt
with the charge that the latter had
retained Justice Long for the defense
while at the same time he had Sc
cured a change of venue for QuilhOt
TO Justice Longs court. The charge
was made in the corridor of the court
house and after considerable debate
on the matter the attorneys for Quill
hot and the state repaired to Justice
Peaks office where the question of
taking the case to another court was
considered.
1t is alleged that the procedure or
the attorneys for QuilhOt was dis
closed when JuGtice Long explained
to the deputy prosecutor that pos
sibly he might not be able to try this
particular case for the reason that
he had been retained for the defense
in the case Of some South Bend man.
Later it was disclosed that the man
in question was Quilhot and that
Long was slated TO act as judge in
Quilhot's case at the same time that
was retained for Quilhots defense.
The proba bilities are therefor that
Justice Long Will disqualify himself
and the case will go to the court Of
Justice Bultinck of Mishawaka. At
all events the prosecutor is deter
mined that the trial shall not be be-
fore Justice Long. Justice Peak, it
is declared, knew nothing of the un-
usual arrangements until Friday
when he had already sent the neces-
sary papers to Justice Long following
the granting of the change Of venue.
