FILES SUIT TO
RESCIND CONTACT

W. i. Cary has filed suit in the
district court against !. II. Poulrcr
ct al. to rescind a contract and 'of
the recovery OF the sum OF Sl.OOo.
The plaintiff alleges in his petition
that the defendants represented to
him that they would form a corpoi&-
ton to be known as the Home Build
ing Company, to engage in the busl-
ness OF building and selling houses,
on a tract of land owned by one
Walcott, with whom they claimed 10
have contract; that the deterd-
ants represented to him that II ne
would take $1,000 stock in the cor
poration to be formed. that he would
be made active secretary thereof;
that he paid the defendants the sum
of 81 600 and entered into an oral
contract with them as above set
forth; that he has learned that the
defendants have no contract with
the said Walcott and that this state
ment was made Tor the purpose OF
defrauding him and he asks that the
contract he entered into with the de
PENDANTS be rescinded and that he
have and recover from the defend
ants the sum OF $1,000 he paid them
on stock in said corporation.

No Hint at Washington
AS To Nature of Errand

Washington, Nov. l5.-News that
an American military mission, head
ed by Mai. Gen. Charles d. Rhodes,
commander OF the And. Rainbow
Division, at last reports, will visit
German headquarters at spa, Bel
GUM. next Saturday, aroused much
speculation here. So far as could
be learned no official information
as TO the object of the trip had
reached Washington.
The purely military character OF
the mission was regarded as an in
dication that General Rhodes trip
was for the purpose OF arranging
with the German high command for
the occupation OF various i1tresses
in Alsace-L Lorraine which lie in front
OF tn eAmerican line. These in
clude the Metz -Theionville posi-
tions, and Strassburg on the Rhine,
Previous reports show that defi-
mite dates have been fixed by Mar
sha Foch for his entry into these
German strongholds and his direc-
tions to the Germans as to the time
and method OF their retirement may
be carried by the American officers.
1t is possible that immediate steps
to relieve the food situation in Ger
many, to some extent with the sur
plus stores OF the American army
in France, may be under considera-
ton. General Pershing has avail
able at least three months stock
for his forces and it is constantly
being increased. Secretary Baker
indicated yesterday that it might
be possible TO use some part OF this
reserve to meet urgent needs in
army territory although he did not
say any definite plan had been
framed.

he saws. "This would assure to each
nation the sanctity OF its rights.
Diplomatic and judicial measures
could place a discordant state in
intolerable solitude and not only
the state, but its citizens would suf-
fer. President Wilson has admitted
the legitimacy OF economic penal
ties and hinted that they might
possibly be used against the Cen
tral Powers.
IF this weapon should fail, there
would remain international Mill
tary intery ntion. But economic
measures which would deprive 4
community of materials and inter-
rupt land and sea transport would
be sufficient to crush resistance.

Extremists Said To
Have Demanded The
Queens Abdicatior

London, Nov. I5.-The threaten

Holland. who have demanded abdi-

s. NJ. Nations was found dead in
the public road, just over the hill
east OF Writ, at ! O'Clock yesterday
morning. A large bullet hole in the
right side OF his neck showed how
he was killed.
Nations was formerly a deputy
sheriff in Garvin county and lived at
Elmore City. Recently he has been
working with a casing crew in the
field and his body was found on the
edge of the Humble lease, and al
though there were bumpers working
all night, about 200 yards from that
spot. none of them heard shot
during the night.
A barber who shaved the man the
evening before he was killed, said
he had a large roll of omeny with
him. When found, his pockets had
been turned out and were empty.
Dogs from the Carter lease were
taken to the place where the body
was found but theyl failed to take
the trail. The officers were OF the
opinion that the man had been
killed at some other place and his
body taken there and thrown out
alongside the road.

American Delegates Named?

Washington, Nov. l9.--Amerlcan
delegates to the great peace confer
ence are understood to have been
selected by President Wilson, al
though there probably will be no
announcement until the place and
date OF meeting has been decided
upon formally by the inter-alhcd
council. which reassembled today IN
France.
Discussion in we'll informed quar-
ters today OF the probable personnel
OF the delegation centered upon
four men. They are: Robert Ian
sing. secretary OF state, to head the
mission; Colonel +. NJ. House, now
in France attending the inter-alied
council as the personnel representa-
tive OF the president; El'hu Root
Louis D. Brandies, associate Justice
OF the supreme court.
The belief is growing here that
President Wilson himself will Al
tend the opening sessions OF the
congress, though not to sit as a
delegate around the peace table.
