the thousands of "polius" who sacrificed
their lives for France in the great war.

buried with military honors on the Yer
dun battlefield.
nine bodies, but in one sector of the
front-which, the military authorities re-
fuse to divulge-German and French
bodies were buried in common graves
and were so intermingled that the officer
in charge of the work of exhumation de-
cided it would be unwise to disinter a
body there as the honor of burial be-
meath the Arc de Triomphe might quite
as likely be afforded to former enemy
soldier as to a gallant poilu.
In low casemate the eight bodies
were lying in state tonight surrounded by
a thousand lighted candles, while stern
men and weeping women in widows
weeds filed silently past. On a stand
nearby were trophies from the city Of
Verdun which will be deposited upon the
coffin of the unknown soldier chosen to-
morrow and will accompany the body in
its last journey to the Arc de Triomphe.

PROTEST To ALLIES
ON TURKISH TREATY
Unsettled Future of American
Foreign Policies Causes
Reluctance to Interfere.

Washington. Nov o-(By The Asso-
ciated Press. State department Off
GERS are giving careful study to the tri-
partite agreement concluded between
Great Britain, France and Italy for the
creation of spheres of influence" in
Turkey. 1t was stated Tuesday that any
objections that the American govern
ment might have to the agreement has
not yet reached the formative stage.
Because of the unsettled future of
American foreign policies due to the ap-
preaching change of administration. of
ficials.- indicated that it was doubtful
whether. even should the provisions OF
the agreement be found objectionable to
the policy of this administration, the
United States would find it expedient
to forward a protest to the signatory ma
tions.
The question about which the state
department has been most concerned,
officials said. was whether the provis-
ions of the treaty violated in any way
the principle of equal commercial and
economic opportunities to all nations in
Turkey .enunciated by the American gov
ernment in its note on the Turkish set
tlement communicated to the allied gov
ernments last March.
In answering the objections to the
Turkish settlement raised in the Amer
lean note the allies said the aloofness
exhibited by the United States in Euro
pesn problems made it necessary for
them to reach such equitable arrange
ments as they might be able to agree up
on. The United States never formally de-
Jared war on Turkey and consequently
was not party to the Turkish settle
ment. but it was asked by the allies for
an expression of opinion as to the treaty
presented to Turkey.

ENGAGEMENT BROKEN,
DRAWS DEATH CARD,
GIRL KILLS HERSELF
Texas Woman Takes Life in
Chicago as She Talks to
Former Fiance.

Chicago, Nov. 9-Plunging a Mexican
dagger into her heart while talking to
her former fiance, H. Fl. Carver of this
city, Miss T. Saunders, %, of Laredo.
Texas, ended her life on the mezzanine
floor Of a hotel here Tuesday. Carver
declared an engagement between the two
had recently been broken off. The young
woman left no explanation of her act.
Carver said the young woman gave no
warning of her intention, but drew a
long slim dagger from her sleeve and
plunged it into her left side.
Death Card Face UP
Carver is married, but is being sued
for divorce. A decree of separation was
granted some time ago. The police be-
ieve the divorce action was the suit
referred to in the letter to Miss Saun-
ders.
In Miss Saunders room police found
a deck of cards spread on the table where
Miss Saunders apparently had been tell
ing her fortune In the center, face up,
was the nee of spades, known as the
death card'' among fortune tellers.
A knife slit in the center of it cores
ponded in size to the dagger with which
Miss Saunders killed herself.

In q signed statement made to the po-
lice Carver said Miss Saunders frequent
ly came to Chicago and at one time he
loved her madly."
According to the police, Garver's
statement that he broke the engagement
two months ago was.not borne out by
letters in Miss Saunders possession, one
dated Oct. 90 referring to their plans
for marriage. In it Carver said he had
inquired from the court about his di
vorce and whether it was legal for him
to be remarked, but twas struck dumb"
when he learned that he had only been
granted q separation and not divorce.
