HARDING HAS
 NO WORRIES

Point Isabel, Tex, Nov. 10-Sun- burned and blistered, President-elect Warren G. Harding, today set forth for another battle with the tapon in the Mexican waters off Point Isabel. Disappointed over his failure to land a record tarpon yesterday, the sena- tor set sail with grim tenacity and declared he would bring in a tarpon before sundown.
 While the president-elect is battling with the big fish, preliminary nego- tiations are under way looking for Peace Treaty question, it was learned .,..;;.- IL is understood that the senator in announcing he would hold individual conferences to determine the sentiments towards the Peace Treaty, set ball in motion, and that advocates of League are attempting to agree con a dfinite program which the support of major part of the public. The worries of the Peace problem are far from the mind of the senator today, and he is paying no attention to informal reports that come seeping into this ancient fish ing village
 As evidence that business means nothing to the Harding party, huge piles of mail lay in the village post office clogging business and worry ing the postmaster, who can't under stand why a president-elect is not mc''a interested in his mail
 The senator plans to stay on the water under the shelter of his flap ping straw sombrero all day. He probably will play a round of golf before making an Armistice Day ad- dress. in Brownsville.

 PLAN FUTURE STRIKE

then, and the possibility of another strike is remote. Most of the inter national unions concerned are op- posed to another strike until the workers in the mills of the United States Steel Corporation are thor oughly organized and conditions ripe for success. How long it will take to build up strong organization no one can predict, it was stated today.
 The Amalgamated Association of Steel, iron and Tin Workers will have the dominating voice in deciding plans.
 William z. Foster and John F'itz- patrick, charged this union with "breaking' the last strike. It withS drew from the national organization committee declaring dissatisfa ction with the activities of Foster and F'itz- patrick. It agreed to cooperate again with the other unions on the condition that neither Foster nor Fitzpatrick had connection with future activities.
 It has also delivered an ultimatum that it's contract with the independent mills must be respected. or it will take no hand in new campaign. One of its chief complaints during the last strike was that Foster 'pulled'' ! men out of mills with which it had contracts

Pastor Elias Causes Arrest of President of His Church Board Who Inter rupted Service.

Alleged to have created a disturb ance in the Holy Trinity Greek Ortho- dox church, on West Liberty street, Sunday morning during services, George N5alonis, proprietor of meat market at 97 State street and presf- dent of the church board, was ar rested yesterday afternoon on war rant following the complaint of the pastor, Rev. Gerassimusles Elias. and was arraigned in the City court this morning charged with breach of the peace. Judge Wilder continued the ca SC until Tuesday and Malonis was in bonds of $50.
 According to the story, told through an interpreter to a Times reporter, this morning, by the pastor, Malonis dressed to the congregation in the ser mon on Monday morning, when he pleaded for recognition of a circular sent to the church by Bishop Alex ander of New York, in which he urged that the congregation contrib ute. to the support of war-stricken in fants in Asia Minor.
 Malonis, believing that there was a personal mention in the remarks by the pastor, stood up in the church in that no person will take the floor without the permission of the priest, to address the congregation.
 Malonis besides exec pting to the re- l'dIhS III SuppoIl OI the pled TOT the orphans, spoke against the clergy of the church in general and quite a blt of confusion resulted when the faith full followers of the pastor attempted to evict the church board president from the building.
 Rt. Rev. Joakim Malachias, dean of the Orth hodoX Greek diocese as repre- sentative of Bishop Alexander, was in town this morning and was endeavor- ing to straighten out the tangle- caus-

NSpeCldl to IlI11eS.D
 Bedding, Nov. 1O-Yielding to the advice of friends. a number of Re publicans being among them, J. B. count of the votes cast for judge of probate at last weeks election.
 The official declaration of the vote gave F. A. Judd a majority of one over MT. Sanford for the office.
 An examination of the rejected ed, would reverse the present appar- ent majority. One of these had been marked as a straight Demo cratic ticket, the irregularity consist ing in the fact that the cross was penciled on the reverse Or imprinted proper location as regards the circle outline. What prompted anyone to do the job in this Alice in Wonder land fashion, is a puzzle.
 Another of the discarded ballots was properly marked in the circle as Republican, the only deviation from straightness being that the voter hal penci1ed a character oppsite the name of J. B. Sanford. with the evi- dent design of voting for him fer ever, more nearly resembled the fig ure than a cross and for that req son the ballot was thrown out.
 These are the specific instances of alleged error to be cited in the peti- toner's appeal and there will be a general claim of possible further CT TOTS, from the fact that the ballots as regards the probate candidates and some of the other names towards the bottom of the list, were counted over once. Mir. Judd did not seek the nomina- tion and accord ding to the statements To his friends is not especially desirous of assuming it's duties.

 Washington, Nov. 10-"Dry' law chiefs today were in utter dismay over the probable eff feet of the Supreme Courts de- cision holding tAat Whiskey may be transported" from warehouses storage to owners homes. They frankly fear de- moralization in enforcement work may grow out of the re. lease of millions of gallons of liquors legally held.
 Some clear statement, further in terpreting the rights of whiskey own CTS, under the highest courts ruling is expected as a result or the conler- ences continued today between Com : missioner of Internal Revenue Will jams and Prohibition Commissioner Kramer and their legal advisors.
 Revision of some of the prohibition regulations now in effect IS pelns made to conform to the decision, ana , other regulations discussed as possl- ble substitutes to prevent heavy With drawaIS of liquor from storage Officials faced the most difficult { vroblem they have had since national prohibition became a reality. After officials conferred today, II was indicated that the Internal Reve- : nue Bureau may devise plan calllne for certain guarantees from Wh1Skey { owners who may seek to remove thelr i 1iouor stock and transport them.
 Legal advisers of the Enforcement Bureau doubted whether the govern ment could successfully resist whole sale moves by whiskey owners to withdraw their stocks.
 Efforts to prevent such withdraw aIs, it was admitted. would cause liti' gation in courts all over the coun- try.
 No official records were availahle +o officials today to show what pro. portion of the 45,O0O.O00 gallns ot whiskey and 2o,0OO.o00 gallons of gin, rum and brandy now in bona warehouses would be withdrawn un- dep the courts edict.

Kranz and Roach Undergo Severe Gruelling But Maintain Silence-Police Cannot Tell Where Muf-, der Car and Gun Were Found,

Max kranz of Bridgeport, and Joseph Roach of Danbury, held by the state police in the Bridgeport county jail suspect ed of the murder of Arthur V. Donahue, confidential reporter for William R. Hearst of New York, at Newtown last Satur- day night maintain a sphinx like silence and at press hour today despite severe gruelling at the hands of the officers oD the case refuse to mako any admissions as to their part in the mysterious murder which has set the entire countryside of Newtown by the ears.
 The state police admit that they have in their possession the murder car and the gun which was used in the killing but positively refuse to say where they took possession of the car and the gun. Further than this
 Sergeant Frank Virelli of the State
 Police emphatically denies the story created to h1m wherein he is made
 to say that one of the men had ad-
 mitted. the shooting. In d statement to The Times today at noon the sergeant declared that he was 1;lis- quoted and that the words were put into his mouth.
 We are working on the case and are confident that within AS hours we will have completed our case and l have no doubt but that the two men | held were implica ted in the crime. As to which individual fired the fatal | shots we are not able to say, yet. We i are however, quite sure that any talk i that the brother-in-law of MT. Dona- hut had not told the truth and the | gossip that he might be implicated is absolutely untrue. The car and gun are in our possession but we cannot yet say any more about them. That | evidence is for the coroner and other | proper authorities and cannot be told l now
 | Sergeant Virelli and Officer Nichols are still working hard on the case
 and have scarcely stopped to, sleep
 since they took up the investigation. So far little has been learned of the tantecedents of Kranz who roomed at | 514 John street at a rooming house kept by Mrs. Emma Kranz but why
 refuses to discuss her goomer.
 | The hearing of thetmen was con tinued for one week yesterday by Jlstice G. H. Mccarthy of Newtown l to give the police time to complete
 their investigation.
