19 Discharged by Commits
sioner Curtis of Boston
Fail to Get Redress
WERE NOT ENTITLED
TO REINSTATEMENT
Supreme Court ofMassa-
chusettS Passed on the
Case To-day

Boston, Nov THE supreme court
to-day refused redress to the officers
of the Boston policemen's union, who
sought restoration to the positions
from which they were removed by
Commissioner Edwin U. Curtis for un-
ion affiliation. The court acted on the
request of the former policemen, headed
by President John +. McInnis of the
union, for writ of mandumas to com
pei the commissioner to restore them.
Judge Carroll held that they were not
entitled to reinstatement because they
had failed TO avail themselves of the
remedies contained in the anti-coercion
act.
1t was the suspension Of the - off
GERS of the union by Commissioner
Curtis that preciTitated the strike of
policemen on Sept I. The patrolmen
were tried by the commissioner on
charges that they had violated a de-
partmental rule by their union mem.
bership and activities, and were found
guilty, Sentence was withheld for a
time, while union members announced
openly that any punishment of their
leaders would be met by strike. With

Allies Refuse " Upon Ma
ture Reflection" to Alter
Decisions of Conference
BUT NOT INSPIRED
BY VENGEANCE IDEA
Bulgaria Is Given 10 Days
in Which to Accept
or Reject

Paris, Thursday, Nov Elm the COW
ering letter of the allied reply to the
Bulgarian delegations representations
regarding the peace terms presented
Bulgaria, it is pointed out that the
Bulgarian people cannot be freed from
responsibility and that, therefore, the
decisions of the peace conference, which
have been made upon mature retlee-
tion, cannot be materially changed.
The conditions Of peace as they were
handed to the Bulgarian delegation,
the letter sets forth, were not inspired
by any idea of vengeance, and the allies
do not intend to make Bulgaria pay
for all her past mistakes. They wish
only, it is declared, to establish peace,
just and lasting, and they remind Bul-
garia in this connection that they guar
antee her an outlet to the Egean sea.
The letter informs the Bulgarians
that if some of their questions are not
replied to this fact must not be taken
as an assent on the points raised. 1t is
added that the notifications made by
the reply are binding in the treaty, the
text of the original document remain
ing unchanged in other respects, and
that the text as it now stands must
either be accepted or rejected by Bull
garia. who is given 10 days for reply.
As has been indicated, the allied re-
ply refuses to grant any changes in the
territorial clauses of the treaty as
originally presented.
Bulgaria asked that the clause for
the protection of racial minorities,
which she accepted, be modified so that
Ottoman subjects who left 'Dobrudja,
Thrace or Macedonia to seek refuge in
Bulgaria, be granted facilities to choose
with regard to their nationality. The
reply says this point has been noted by
the allied powers and that measures
will be taken to better the status of
this refugee population.
(. As to the military terms, Bulgaria's 5
proposal for the creation of a corps of
frontier guards is accepted, but the
men are to be recruited by voluntary
enlistments only and their number
must not exceed 5000
A slight change is made in the naval
terms, Bulgaria being allowed to retain
a certain number of small vessels for
the patrol of fisheries, etc, all manned
on a purely non.military basis
The allies assure Bulgaria that the
reparations commission viii have the
power to facilitate If necessary, the
conditions for the payment of the sums
due on reparation, and payment may
be made by means OF property, real es-
tate, concessions, etc, instead of by
currency, if the reparations commission
should so decide,

tion Without Reservation in Sen
ate Yesterday, Creating
a Commotion.

Washington, d. G., Nov AFTER a
sharp and fruitless skirmish during
which a vote on ratification of the
peace treaty without reservations for
a time seemed imminent, the Senate
late yesterday went back to its reg
ular order of business and began for
NAL consideration of the reservations
recommended by the foreign relations
committee.
An immediate vote of the treaty
without reservations was proposed by
Senator Underwood, Democrat, Ala
bama, after Republican Leader Lodge
had challenged the administration to
make such move. Senator Hitchcock
Of Nebraska, the administration leader
mtervened before the question was put
and long argument ensued. Senator
Underwood's proposal followed discus
sion of parliamentary procedure, which
was attended by great confusion. Half
/ dozen senators frequently sought to
speak at the same time and Vice
President Marshall was kept busy
banging his gavel for order
Senator Hitchcock accepted the chal-
lenge OF senator llouge ana Hdue q
motion that the Senate ratify the
treaty without reservations. He then
demanded a roll call

THETFoRD MAN LOSES.
His License Taken Away by the Secre-
tary of State.

The secretary of state has suspended
the automobile operators license Of
G. p. Waterman Of Thetford because
an investigation showed that the man
"cut in" after he had gone by team.
1t was the old story of trying to pass
a team when the driver did not have
the right of road with the result that
his automobile collided with one ap-
preaching that had the right of road.
T.. L. Rock of South Barre has made
report of an accident that took

AFT s. KILLING MAN
sd ROBBING BODY
4aurice F. Otterson, Vic
tim--His Sister-in-Law
Was Gagged

Hooksett, n. H., Nov. 7.--Search for
two automobile bandits in a high pow
cred car was made through this state
to-day by officials investigating the
killing last night of Maurice +. Otter
son, a garage keeper, who recently re-
turned from overseas. The bandits en-
tered the home Of young Otterson's
parents, near Mount st Mary's con
vent, in thickly settled district, and
one of them shot him down from be-
hind while the other gagged his sister,
in-law, Mrs. Howard Otterson, and held
her captive in the rear hall.
Otterson's assailant robbed the
body and hastily gathered up what val
uables he could, after which it is be-
lieved both men fled in car which
they had left in front of the house.
A physician, summoned by neighbors
after Mrs. Otterson had called for help
reported that while on his way to the
Otterson home from Suncook he met
car racing at top speed toward the
north. This was said to be the only
clue held by the county authorities
Mrs. Otterson said she saw neither man
plainly as her head was covered with
sweater.
An autopsy held at Concord to-day
by Medical Referee Loren A. Sanders,
showed that the bullet which killed
Otterson was fired from behind, so
close to his head that the hair was
singed. There were no signs of a
struggle.
Other members of the Otterson fam
lily had gone to a motion picture show
at Manchester last evening, leaving
young Otterson and his sister in-law to
follow later in an automobile. Mrs
Otterson said she had opened rear
hall door to put the dog out when she
was surprised by a man who wrapped
her head in sweater, threw her to
the floor, gagged and held her. Her
brother in law meantime, she believes,
came down stairs to fix the kitchen
fire and was surprised while bending
oyer the stove, by another man. She
heard the shot, she said, but no sound
of struggle.
Sheriff George A. Wooster of Concord
called five sheriffs of Merrimack coan-
ty into the Search to-day and they pur-
sued their investigation while word
was sent through the state in an ef
fort to find the bandit car.

Washington, D. c., Nov. Z. Presi-
dent Wilson to-day told Senator Hitch
cock, Nebraska, administration leader
in the Senate treaty fight, that he
would be entirely satisfied with any
reservations supporters of the treaty
might feel justified in accepting, pro-
vided they did not nullify the league
of nations covenant and were designed
for the purpose Of interpreting the
terms of the treaty.
The president, Senator Hitchcock
said, expressed his very strong APP
proval" of what had been done to date
and agreed that no compromise would
be offered unless a deadlock was
reached on a resolution of ratification.
Senator Hitchcock said if resolu-
tion of ratification containing the com
mittee reservations were adopted, that
would settle the fight SO far as the
Senate was concerned, but that the
president could "pigeonhole' the treaty.
He declined to speculate as to the prob
able course of the president, should the
committee resolution prevail.
Senator Hitchcock was with the
president for half an hour. Mr.. Will
son received him propped up in bed.
The senator said President Wilson
showed keen interest throughout the
conference and expressed his judgments
and opinions energetically.
The senator outlined the plan to be
followed in consideration Of the reser-
vations and the president gave general
approval.
"He was Mandatory of the success we
have achieved so far" the senator said,
"and expressed the hope that we would
be able to work out some settlement
between the reservation senators and
those who favor unqualified acceptance
of the treaty, whereby we could meet
on common ground"
Plan of Action on Treaty.
Senator Hitchcock explained to the
president the present status of the
treaty and gave it as his opinion that
the Republicans could secure adoption
of the committee reservations while
the Senate sat in the committee of
the whole, as only majority vote was
require.
Our intention then" the senator
said, eff the reservations still are in
their present form, is to oppose the
resolution or ratification. Some Dem
ocrats, of course, probably will not line
up with us on that, but | am confident
we have enough votes to defeat such
restitution of ratification because two
thirds will be required.
''We will then offer resolution of
ratification ourselves which may be de-
feated."
The senator was asked what the
next move would be and replied that
would be the compromise movement

GOVERNMENT
STANDS FAST
Will Continue to Press the
Injunction Against the
Coal Miners
A. f. L. LEADERS GET
PALMER'S DECISION
Wilson's Cabinet Met To-
day and Considered
Situation

Washington, D. c., Nov. THE
strike of bituminous coal miners in
particular and the industrial situation
in general were discussed by President
Wilson's cabinet to-day at a special
meeting called by Secretary Lansing
of the state department. Fuel Ad.
ministrator Garfield and Director Gen.
eral Hines of the railroad administra.
ton were present.
Before the cabinet assembled admin
istration spokesmen reiterated that the
government was unutterably opposed
to the proposal of Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, that the injunction suit
against the United Mine Workers Of
America be withdrawn as a preliminary
to the ending of the strike and the ne
gotiation of new agreement between
the miners and operators.
Officers said that the government s
offer to arbitrate the controversy as
soon as the strike order was with
drawn still was open and that unless
it was accepted and the strike ended
there was no course for the government
except to press the injunction suit
Before Attorney General Palmer
went to the cabinet meeting, Samuel
Gompers, president; Matthew Wohl,
vice epresident, and Frank Morrison,
secretary, Of the American Federation
of Labor, called on him and were in
formed that the government had not
altered its decision to press iniunc-
tion proceedings unless the strike or
der was withdrawn.
Mr.. Gompers expressed the opinion
that a settlement Of the strike could
not be reached If the government en-
forced legal measures. He also again
called attention TO what he said would
be the effect of government by in,
junction upon organized labor gen.
orally.
