Paris, Oct. IL, 4:55 a. m.-Details
Of the demands made on the Greek
government by Admiral DArtige Du
Fournet, the commander of the al
lied naval forces at Piraeus, which
have been made public here, show
that the ultimatum was much more
comprehensive than was understood
in the first. In addition to her fleet,
Greece was required to permit allied
control Of all material for naval
operations as well as the mails, te!e-
graphs and railroads. The ultimtum
set forth that such control was nee
essary in order to render impossible
the use Of the navy, railroads and
SO forth to the detriment of the al
lies.
Admiral Du Fournet gave the Greek
government until one o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon to comply with his de-
mandS and stated that failure to do
so would result in his taking the nee
eSSary steps.

Washington, April ga stormy de-
bate over the nomination. Of Louis p.

in the senate late Friday and before II
was over predictions were made by
two members of the Judiciary commit
tee, one of them a democrat, that an
unfavorable report on the appointment
would follow when the committee
reached vote. "a
Discussion was precipitated when
Senator Sutherland, a republican
member of the committee, read to the
senate an interview published Thurs
day quoting Senator Ashurst as charg-
ing that republican members of the
judiciary committee were flibustertng
ie order to delay vote on the nom-
ination until after the national politi :
cal convention. e.
Senator Ashurst stood steadfastly
By the quoted statement during the
heated argument that followed until
assured by fellow democrats on the
committee that there was no such III
buster. He withdrew the charge az
the suggestion Of Senator Brandegee
after he had denounced executive SEES
sions and charged that the republicans
were angered over the nomination OF
Mr.. Brandeis because he was champ
ion of the masses.
Friday night it generally was be-
iieyed that the debate would serve to
bring the committee to a vote on the
nomination within few days. All the
senators who took part in the discuss
sion were members of the committee
Senator Sutherland took Senator
Ashurst to task both for revealing to
newspaper men what had taken place
Thursday in the Judiciary committee
and for saying that the republican
members were filibustering. Mr.. AS
hurst responded that he. was not like
public men who would shift respon-

not said anything about what had
transpired in the committee room.

HOME IS BURNED
Residence Mrs. Jennie Gordon, 436
Greenwood, Destroyed.

Fire, the origin of which has not
been discovered, completely destroyed
the residence of Mrs. Jennie Gordon
at 1876 Greenwood avenue early this
morning. The alarm was turned in
about three o'clock and by the time
the department reached the location
the big twelve-room house was in
ruins. When the men from No. 2
crossed Clay street on West Sixth
they passed through cloud of smoke
from the burning house blocks away.
Il knew then the house was gone"
said Joe Weidelich, assistant chief.
Miss Alta Wessen, who lives in the
house on adjoining lots. discovered the
fire. The light flashing through her
window Weakened her and at that time
the fire was burning on both floors
of the Gordon house. Her brother
turned in the alarm. 1t is not known
today whether there was AuY one in
the house. Until ten days ago it was
occupied by the family Of C. w. Set
tie. Since then there has been a care
taker around the premises but no one
appears to know whether he was in
the house last night. Mrs. Gordon,
owner of the place, is not in the city,
The house was valued at $4,000.
