and state officials were without the
slightest clue today to establish the
identity of the man who murdered
Mrs. Lizzie Coppock, three miles
southeast OF here Thursday night
and then assaulted her.
Bloodhounds used yesterday failed
to find trace OF the murderer and
were called off last night after los
ing their third lead.
Although the investigation has
failed to give even slight clue for
a motive Of killing, it Is evident that
the murderer from his watchout in
an abandoned cabin, 500 feet south
OF the Coppoclr home. had observed
every movement of the mother and
her son, Marion, and knew exactly
when his victim was alone. Three
22-long shells found in the room were
undoubtedly fired from rifle. The
murdered evidently brought the gun
with him and carried it away when
he fled. Members OF the family de-
clared there was no rifle on the
place. A search failed to reveal any
weapon which might have been used.
A final survey of the section on
which the farm home is located
showed the f1end had cut diagonally
through the field from the barnyard
and then walked the railroad tracks.

! When the Italian delegates first re
turned to Paris, report was cir
culated that tentative agreement had
been reached by the other allied lead
ers to internatfonalize Fiume under
/ the league Of nations for period OF
years-variously estimated at from

other port was to be equipped for the
use Of the Jugo-Slavs that they might
De recompensed for the loss Of Fiume.
That such compromise was ever
acceded to, is now denied in American
quarters. 1t is further contended that
no invitation of any sort was issued
to the Italians and that they came
back solely on their own initiative.
The italians explained unoficially that
their return was necessitated through
regard for other allies, Germany hav.
ing questioned the validity of a treaty
in which the Italians would not par.

mier Orlando and Minister Sonnino
first departed from Paris with the
single exception that Orlando has
since received vote of confidence

Reports that the Chinese have been
advised by the Pekin government not
TO sign a treaty which turns former
German concessions in the Shantung
peninsula over to Japan-was decided
by the "big three"-have failed to
creatate any particular apprehension
in peace circles. Members of the
American commission expressed con-
fdence today. that when the time come
the Chinese would sign the treaty with
out further opposition.
They pointed out that China gains
far more under the league Of nations
than she loses through the concessions
to Japan and that she cannot AFFORD to
remain outside the league.
