NO NEW DEVELOPMENTS
No Trace of Whereabouts of Or. Will
n1er Amos Hadley as Yet

Richmond, Feb. 3.-No new develop
ments have occurred during the last
twenty-four hours which might lead
to the identity of the person who is
responsible for the death Of Mrs. Viii
mer Amos Hadley, whose body was
found floating in the James River sew
eral miles west of the city several
weeks ago. Neither has any trace as to
the whereabouts of Dr. Wilmer Amos
Hadley. husband of the dead woman,
who is believed to be implicated in
the death Of his wife, been unearthed.
Sheriff w. Webb Sydnor, of Hen
rico county, announced last night that
he himself would be responsible for
the payment of $500 to the person who
captured Dr.. Hadley. This amount
it is understood. will be supplemented
By the state. Officials of Henrico
county called upon Governor Davis
Yesterday and conferred with Colonel
Hodges, his secretary, and were en-
Outraged as result of the visit. The
governor was out Of town.
That the coroner's inquest, which
will determine the manner in which
the woman met death, will not be con-
Quoted for some time was reported
last night. Officials of Herricc county
are anxious that Had,ey be captured
before the inquest is held. This, how
ever, may be impossible, and it is
probable that the inquest may have
10 be held without the physician be-
ing present. In event he is appre-
nended before the inquest is held, he
will be forced to view the body of the
woman.

Berlin is in the grip Of the greatest
unemployment crisis in its history.
The government is threatening to put
into effect system of compulsory
employment, but the huge army Of
joblcss men ard women, now est
mated at 100000, is taking defiant
attitude. Most Of the city's industries
and stores are tied up by strikes.

ST. CROIX

Paris, Feb. 18th. Lord Robert Cecil
emphatically denied tonight the report
spread in Paris today that the League Of
Nations Commission had approved the
creation of an international army and
thai the United States and Great Britain
had conceded a point to France. Lord
Robert Cecil said that in his opinion the
Commission would decline moreover to
approve any such plan. He added that
such a report must have originated from
an enemy of the Peace Conference.
Paris, Feb. 18th. The Supreme War
Council met at the Foreign Office at II
O'Clock this morning for the purpose of
reaching a final determination Of the
new terms of the German armlstice.
There were present in addition to Presi-
Wilson and the Foreign Ministers of the
Great Powers, Marshal Foch, Field Mar
shall Haig, General Petain, General rersh-
ing and General Diaz. A full agreement
on the terms was presented IN the report
from the subcommittee embracing mill
tary and economic members. The report
was unanimous, including the adherence
of the American members, General Bliss,
and Mr.. Norman Davis, which indi-
Gates that economic measures figure in
the new terms equally with military
measures. The report must be approved
by the Supreme War Council before it
becomes effective. The German authori-
ties have been asked to furnish infor-
nation concerning the amount. of their
war material, cannon, alrplanes and
other equipments. This question came
up in the recent sessions of the War
Council when the extent of this war
material was advanced as a reason for
taking measures against the renewal
of warlike activities. Before determi-
nation on any such step, it was
considered desirable to request in
formation both as a memo dealing
with the subject, and as testing the good
faith of the enemy disclosing the status
of his military equipment.
Paris, Feb. 12th-The rehabilitation
of Germany cannot be effected alone by
supplying her with an adequate amount
of food, is the opinion of a trained Oh
server who has just completed a tour of
Prussia for the Supreme War Council of
food relief of the Peace Conference. A

pie are affected physically and spiritually
by the poor food, (which is given in small
quantities but there is much more at
the bottom of the almost hopeless
situation. The people will not work.
They are paid a too high pension for idle
ness. They have no real leaders to or
ganize and carry them. They are going
down further and further, and with it all,
with few exceptions, they do not blame
themselves, they reproach the Entente.
They are bIindly insolent".
Washington, Feb. Extracting Secre-
tary OF State Polk announced today that
the United States now had accepted or
mally the proposal of the Japanese Gov
eminent in regard to plans for the resto-
ration of railway traffic in Siberia. The
purpose of the agreement" Mr.. Folks
statement said, is to assist the Russians
in Siberia in regaining thier normal con-
dition Of life, and has been reached upon
a definite understanding that the rail
ways are to be operated for the interests
of the people in Siberia. The United
States and Japan have expressly voiced
their di5interested purpose not to infringe
on any existing right, either in Russia or
China.
Paris, Feby. 18th. The Peace Confer
6DcG OOIlIIlISSIOu On 1IC0IIldlIOIldl LdUOQI
Legislation at its meeting today, adopted
articles 4 and 5 of the British draft of a
plan for an international labour Organiza-
ton. The official statement regarding the
meeting today of the Commission on In
ternational Labour Legislation says The
Seventh meeting of the Commission on In
ternational Labour Legislation took place
this morning. Articles 4 and 5 of the
British draft we're adopted. This pro-
vides that at the proposed international
labour conference, the representatives
of the Governments employers and
work people should be entitled to speak
and vote Independently without re-
gard to the views reported by other
representatives of their nations. Hith-
erto, the delegates present at these
conferences have represented their
Governments only, and the voting
has always been by the nations. 1t
was felt, however, that in dealing with
labour legislation, employers and work
ers must be permitted the fullest oppor-
tunity of giving free expression to their
ideas, and that they could not do this if
the delegates of each national order were
not allowed to speak and vote as a unit.
The Commission then discussed the arti-
Giles dealing with the establishment of a
permanent international labour Office and
the governing body that will direct it's
work. 1t was agreed that the Office should
be at the capital Of the League of Nations

Basic, Feby. 13th.-Karl Radent, the
Russian Bolsheviki Emissary, who has
been accused by the German authorities
of being an instigator of numerous radi-
cal outbreaks in German territory. has
been discovered and arrested by the Ber-
lin police, according to a Berlin despatch
today. His whereabouts had been a mys-
terry for some time.
Berlin, Feby. 18th general insur-
rectlon is in progress throughout Rouma-
MIA, according to a special despatch from
Vienna. Workingmen blocked the road
ways from the Royal Palace when the
Royal Family attempted to flee to Jassey
and King Ferdinand and his family were
forced to return. The King was wound
ed when the workers fired on the Royal
Palace. Rioters in Bucharest are openly
demanding the overthrow of the Dynas-
ty, crying Down with the puppets, long
live the republic.
London, Feby. 13th-The view that
the terms of peace with Germany should
be bettered before the organization of
a Society of Nations is dealt with, was
expressed in the House of Commons
yesterday afternoon ~ Horatio Bot
tomley. The speaker declared that the
Government would lose a large part of
its majority if it brought to the House
the draft of a Peace Treaty which had
to be accepted or rejected without al
iteration. The Preliminary treaty, he
said, should be initiated and chen sub
mittod to the PEG les of each country.
Mr.. Bottomley said he was not sure
if that were done, President Wilson
would find that he spoke with such alb
solute authority for the United States.
He said he supposed that in any case
President Wilson on his return TO Anne
RIGA would find American idealism TAX
ing a very practical form in securing
food contracts throughout the world,
and Scooping the pool while we are
talking about a League of Nations if
there had been no disagreement at the
Peace Conference, as had been said
in the Kings speech, Mr.. Bottomley
added, then the question of the Free
dom of the Seas had gone, the Domini-
ons were to be supreme regarding the
German Colonies, and the Premier's
promises as to indemnities were to be
carried out or Some one had to hold
the pass.

forthcoming expositions is growing
throughout the industry. Truly

the general demand for motor We
hicles. the motor expositions at
New York and Chicago promise to

advancement in the development Of
automotive engineering.
Applications for space at the two
gigantic national shows are now
being received at the headquarters
