WOULD GALL NATIONS LEAGUE
 MEETING
Premier Clenenceau Has Written Colonel House
 on Subject.

Paris, Oct. 3. (Friday)-Premier Clemenceau has written to Colonel E. M. House, a. member of the American peace delegation, urging that a meet ing of the League of Nations be held in Washington under the chairman ship of President Wilson early in No vember. The premier's letter, which outlines his reasons for the calling of such a meeting, was officially publish ed today. It was written on Septem- Der 1, 1919, and says in part:
 T would suggest the meeting be held the first week of the coming November and would propose the in- vitation of the greatest possible num- Der of statesmen whose names were associated with the creation of the society of nations. Undoubtedly there would be only a small amount of current business to transact, but the program would have this capital aay2stare: It would put in aeon the society, which still exists only on paper.
 Finally don't you think it would be a great advantage for the ex-of1- cio members of the society of nations to be enabled to exchange views on the general direction of the line to be pursued? No man is better qualified thban President Wilson to remind the peoples at the opening of the first assembly that the society of nations will have prestige and influence in times of peace, only if it succeeds in maintaining developing the feeling of international solitary from which it was born during the war at the call of MT. Wilson. I, myself, shall be happy to second him in this task"

Wife Helps Husband Launch Boat in Heavy
 Sea. BOATS CARGO
 62,O0O BRICKS

With the fore part of his vesse! on the shore of Pleasure Beach and the south east squan driving great waves over the stern Captain Charles Lun- derwaII with his wife and one man crew had an exciting time in launch ing boat frcnl the TWO masted schooner William L. Peck about 10 o'clock last night.
 The schooner was off 8r;dgeport harbor on her way iron. Perth Am boy to Newport R ' with a cargo of 62,000 bricks. with the mate at the wheel and the ca ptain an his wife in the cabin below when the sudden careening of the vessel caus- ed the captain to hurry on deck where he found that the squau was driving the ship on the shore
 He tried to weather the Stratford Point but found that he would be unable to do so against the head wind He then turned and tried to make Bridgeport harbor when he discover ed that he had been driven too close to the shore to clear Pleasure Beach He lowered his sail before she struck and none of the upper works were carried away, but the water poured lnlO the HOIO where the seams had opened with the shock, and from the waves that dashed over the stern.
 The captain was now confronted with the difficult and hazardous duty of launching a, boat in the big driving waves and high wind with only himself and a one man crew. The thought of his wife's predica- ment added to his worry.
 But she showed that she was not going to be a burden to him by pitch ing in and doing as much work a5 either the captain or crew in launch ing the boat and in handling an oar to keep it also from being dashed on the shore. After some strenuous work the whole party reached the shore in safety.
 The captain says that he wouldn't care so much. although he was the owner of the schooner and she is not insured, but for the fact that his wife had come with him on this trip and he hated to have her see him lose his ship.
 The brick will be unloaded and if she is not too badly strained or steven an attempt will be made to float the schooner as soon as the sea subsidies.

LONDON GIRLS
 MORE GRACEFUL
 THAN BROTHERS
Devotees Of The Dance They Acquire Poise
 Quickly.

London, Oct. 4-London girls are graceful and generally walk better than their brothers because they are fond of dancing, according to the medical officer of the London County Council.
 Teaching of dancing in the public schools has no doubt greatly helped. if it has not saved the situation in regard to the physical development of London girIs,'' said the medical of ficer. Particularly noticeable is the much better arched instep of the girls in comparison with their own broth CTS and with country children gen orally.
 The relative absence of flat-foot thus brought about is the foundation of that grace of carriage which the typical London girl of the elementary schools exhibits In the country schools no dancing is taught, nor do the children there enjoy those outside stimuli to ar inteAest in dancing which are characteristic of London szt9as

SEEK INJUNCTION
 AGAINST BARRING
 HOTEL ENTRANCE

Claiming that the front entrance to the Norwalk Hotel has been ob- structed by a wooden fence erected by New Haven railroad workmen, Harriet L. Russell, who owns the ho tel, applied to the superior court to- day for an injunction to restrain the workmen from continuing the job. She also wants S5,00O damages.
 It is alleged that the railroad prop erty adjo:ns the hotel and that exca- vations were made to repair the walls of the railroad tunnel. After the workmen had erected the fence the owner of the hotel demonstrated on the ground that the barrier was in front of the hotel porch. She claims the railroads agents then agreed that the work would not be resumed until the eastern boundary line was agreed upon. Despite this agreement sh declares operations were started again.

COL. DONOVAN ACCUSES
 RUSSIAN FLOGGER OF
 BEING JAPANESE AGENT
JAPAN TRYING
 TO GOBBLE EAST United States Should Act With Firm Hand To
 Save Situation.

New York, Oct. 4-The Cossack General Kalmikoff, whose troops f1ogged an American soldier in Siberia recently, is "in the pay of Japan, '' according to a statement of Colonel William J. Donovan. former com mander of the 165th infantry, pub lished by the New York Herald to- day.
 Colonel Donovan, who recently re- turned from a trip through Japan, China, Korea and Siberia, stopped off here for few hours on his way to his home in Buffalo, after confer ences with State and War Depart ment officials in Washington. Colonel Donovan made it clear, however, that he had not made his trip to the Far East as a government emissary.
 The United States should keep her eye on Japan" Colonel Donovan de- claTed. 'Under these circumstances she should recall the forces she now has in Siberia. Japan is receiving all kinds of concessions from the Cos sack generals, and one of the out standing figures of this group is Gen eral Kalmfkoff who is credited with having ordered that Benjamin Sper- ling the American soldier be fogged." ."
  stay in Siberia he had ''seen things that made me open my eyes, Colonel Donovan continued:
 Tt is generally known that Gen erals Kalmikoff and Semenoff are the agents of Japan. It is known that they are not only in the pay of Japan but have received arms and assist ance from Japan. Japan has three in beria. Her evident game is to erect an economic and military barrier in north Manchuria and Siberia which will entirely blockade the corridor leading into European Russia.
 Japan is changing from an agri- cultural to an industrial nation, and in Siberia and China she finds the natural resources and raw materials which she must have"
 Colonel Donovan said that he had spent considerable time with Admiral KoIchak, head of the Omsk govern ment. and had found him "a real patriot, thoroughly honest in his in tenttons" and without personal am bition. Kolchak. he said, enjoyed a kind of loyal allegiance" from Gen era1 Kalmikoff. but had not enough strength to control him.
 Colonel Donovan declared he did not believe there was a likelihood of war between the United States and Japan because the idea of the militarists of Japan that we were a nation of soft money makers has been dispelIed by what we have done in the European war" He asserted that if the United States acted with firm hand ''an open door in the east" could be as sured.

CAPTURED GOODS OF RED GROSS
 90 ID RUMANIA

Budapest, Oct I. - Thousands of tons of American medical supplies, captured in Rumania by the Hun garian army in 1917-t91S, and re- captured by the Rumanians upon their occupation of Budapest, will soon be on their way to Bucharest, the Rumanian capital.
 The supplies, consisting of a train load of huge cases, were shipped via Nladivostok in 1916, this being the only route then open to Rumania. Many of these supplies belonged to the American Red Cross, which was driven out of Rumania up the Austro- Hungarian invasion of 1917. The re- mainder were sold to the Rumanian army by American drug firms.
 Despite the fact that the typhus was raging in Rumania at the time and these supplies were desperately needed by the civilian population, the Austro- o-Hungarians loaded every case, particularly American instruments and hospital goods, on their booty trains'' which left Bucharest almost daily.
 Together with these supplies went the equipment of every hospital and pharmacy in Rumania, the population being left to get along as best it could.
 Upon the discovery of these sup plies. in warehouses in Budapest, the part that belonged to the American Red Cross was immediately turned over to it by the Rumanian army.
 Captain Melvin M. Knight, an American Ree sross man, of Worces- ter. Mass. was with the Ru- manian arr became custodian. They are now 4@e1ng shipped back to Bu- charest.
