fault Clause Left Be
low Name Line.

Spa, Belgium, July 16.-(By the As
sociated Press1,-The German repre-
seutatives have signed the coal protocol
drawn up by the allied representatives,
thereby settling one Of the most difficult
questions which has come up ID the
present discussions. Signatures were
affixed to the document after a four
hour session at the Villa Frainuse. one
hour of which was spent by the Ger
mans i'll 4 cabinet consultation.
There was conflict over introduc-
ton IN the protocol Of the menace of oc-
cupation of additional German territory
after October 10, next. if the German
coal deliveries were not up to the stipu-
lated quantity-6000, 900 tons-by that
date. The allies decided TO drop this
clause of the protocol below the sigma
ture line.
Then the Germans objected TO the
preamble. which declared that the deci-
sion set forth in the document had been
taken in common accord by the allied
and German delegations, The Germans
contended it was not by common accord,
but By sole will of the allies. that any
further occupation would occur.
Before the arrival Of the German
delegates Friday the allied premiers
completed their consideration of the dis
tribution Of reparations due from Ger
many. As finally adopted, the repara-
tions will be made on the following
basis: France, - per cent; Great Brit
ain, - per cent; Italy, 10 per cent; Bel
gium. per cent, and Japan. and Portu-
gal. each three fourths of Que per cent.
The remaining 6h per cent will be
divided between Serbia, Roumania and
Poland.
Besides the s per cent Belgium is to
receive. she will retain the priority right
to 100000, 900 marks from which will
be paid sums loaned Belgium by the
allies

Excitement, in many cases hysterical.
followed the first shock and had hardly
been calmed when at 1:27 p. m. came
the second, followed two minutes later

scenes of near panic after the third

French Emblem Taken
From Embassy Bastile
Day Is Replaced by
Government Order.
Secretly Said
Necessary That Seri-
Gus Popular Outbreak
Be Averted.

Berlin, July 16.-Dr Daniel Won Hahn
hausen. under secretary Of foreign af-
fairs, with Herr Moll. councillor of the
government representing the prefect Of
polire, paid a personal visit to the
French embassy Friday TO express
official regret over rhe removal on We'd
nesday of French flag hoisted over the
French embassy in honor Of Bastle day,
Herr MoIl announced the arrest of the
guilty person.
Later a company of reichsewhr filed
past the embassy portico. The soldiers
turned and stood at attention while the
tri-c0lor was hoisted. Then they marched
away singing Deutschland Tcber Allies"
The crowd and the police guards Joined
in the singing. Pending the arrival Of
DR. Won Haimhausen and Herr Mol the
crowd had learned Of the proposed salute
Of the French flag by the German troops
and there were cries of shame as the
saluting company approached the en-
bassy.
The reichswehr saluting force had not
actually left the embassy precincts when
the men broke Justify into 'Deutschland
Ueber Allies" The French officers, who
apparently had been pleased up to that
moment, seemed dumbfouuded. They
fingered for a moment on the roof and
nortico, engaged in excited conversation
aud then disappeared into the embassy
building.
The secrecy with which the German
government arranged the ceremony Of
saluting the French flag at the French
embassy to atone for the pulling down Of
the French flag on Bastile day is be
lieyed to have saved Berlin from what
would inevitably have developed into q
serious popular outbreak No one knew
beforehand that the military salute was
to take place and the newspapers learned
Of it only just before going to press. Bit
in their abbreviated reports they presage
an outburst Of editorial Indignation.

HUNTER RAINE
LOSES APPEAL CASE

From the Memphis Commercial
Appeals Nashville correspondent we
learn in a dispatch to that paper from
the state capital under date of De-
cember II tnat c. Hunter Raine,
former president Of the Mercantile
Bank Of Memphis, lost his appeal in
the supreme court Saturday from a
conviction in the Shelby county
criminal court of fraudulent breach
Of trust. Raine's sentence of from
one to 10 years in the penitentiary
was affirmed, thus closing the last
chapter in one of the states most
sensational bank failures, when in
1914 it became known that Raine had
converted S1,O56,000 to play the cot
ton markets.
The supreme court also affirmed
the sentences Of Walter Patton and
John Rogers in the celebrated Hazel
Bray case.
Hunter Raine received a sentence
under this conviction to the peniten-
tiary for term Of not less than one
year nor more than 10 years, Raine's
defs nse was conducted on technical
points alone. His counsel insisted
that he was not guilty Of fraudulent
breach of trust, but was only gully
Of statutory larceny, of which latter
offense he had been ACQUITTED by the
iurv by constitution of the verdict,
The court oyerruled this contention.
holding that Raire, under the facts of
this case, had full control and pos
session Of all the banks money, being
the chief executive officer Of the
bank and that he had converted the
banks money to his own use while
SO in the possession and control Of it.
It was also eontended for Raine
that he was entitled to his discharge
because the state had postponed his
trial from the time Of his Indictment
in February, 1914, until June, 1919,
period of five years, during part Of
which Raine was confined in the fed
eral penitentiary at Atlanta on a con-
viction of using the mails to defraud.
IN overruling this contention the su-
preme court held that the state was
powerless to put Raine to trial while
he was in custody Of the federal au-
and that. Raine being at
liberty on bail during the remainder
of the delay, he had fair opportunity
TO dema~d trial at anv time, and
failing to do so he could not COMPLAIN
of the delay. 1t was therefore held
that Raine had not been denied his
constitutional right to a speedy trial.
The oninion Of the court IN this case
was prepared bv Snecial Iustice r ]
Smith, of Nashville, and was filed
for publication.

SPEND MORE ON TOBACCO
THAN ON CHILDREN

In the educational conference of
educators and leading citizens from
Tennessee and five other Southern
States held in Memphis Saturday,
United States Commissioner Of Edu-
cation P. P. Claxton said the people
of the United States spent a billion
more dollars for tobacco during the
past year than for giving their chill
dren schooling.
The conference was well attended
representative from Louisiana. Ark
ansas, Kentucky, Alabama, Missis-
sinpi and Tennessee were present.
The welcome address was given BY
Mayor Paine, who said that Memphis
is spending $40 per capita for edu-
eating its 10000 boys and girls Of
school age.
Commissioner Claxton emphasized
how easy it would be to raise all the
money needed if tobacco users would
Hooverize, and he said he was not
trying to ridicule Tennessee because
1t maid it's school teachers less than
It did for maintaining its prisoners,
as many states were doing less.
Representatives from each Of the
states outlined what wa being done
All were striving for betterment. The
report from Louisiana said that state
had all the school monev it needed 4
because of recent legislative nrovis-
ions. The Kentucky representation
said that during the past year the
-tata had MT thrOuph more construct
We legislation than for 40 years prev
ioUsly.
Commissioner Clgxton was given
an enthusiastic hearing at the weekly
meeting of the City Club at lunch.
At the later session Of the con-
ference a number Of vital problems
we're thoroughly gone into. The
dominant, note in all that was said
was the urgent need for increased
appropriations in order that con-
ditions be improved and that school
standards be raised.
