PEACE COUNCIL
C0rcLUDEs SESSION
ALL FUTURE QUESTIONS TO BE
REFERRED TO COMMITTEE
OF AMBASSADORS.

Paris, Jan. 13.-The supreme
council peace coference has notified
Hugh Wallace, the American ambas-
sador, that it's decision to award the
United States only per cent of the
German shipping to be distributed
among the allies was unchanged.
Ambassador Wallace Immediately re-
piled that the United States preferred
to waive it's claim entirely. The con-
ference completed the Hungarian
treaty without notifications. 1t re-
fused the Serbian request that Cro-
atians be recognized as a separate
entity within Hungary. Following
these actions the council virtually
passed out of existence. 1t was de-
cided to refer all questions in future
to a committee of ambassadors. The
council also decided to publish min
utes of peace conference. The big
three, including Clemenceau, Lloyd
George and Nitti, were still in con-
ference late this afternoon in an ef-
fort to arrive at solution of the
Adriatic situation.

WORK j. S.
MEMBERS OF NATIONAL SYNDI.
CATE BEING SOUGHT FOR
IN CHICAGO.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-Fourteen men,
swindlers, who are alleged by police
to have divided more than $2,00O,00
with politicians, lawyers, police and
some bank officials and employees
were being sought here today.
John Louisi, representing New
York indemnity company, conferred
with officials of the states attorneys
office and presented evidence intend
ed to show such a syndicate existed
and a number of the ringleaders were
here.
Louisi said there was evidence to
show members of this gang recently
robbed an Omaha bank of $4,000.
and banks at Dolton and South Hol-
land, ILL.,, of more than 100000.
This gang employs women to be-
guile bank employees, gain their con-
fidence, learn their secrets, espy Sc
crets concerning shipments of mon
ey," Louisi said. "Then they hire
their robbing done.
The robbers are guaranteed GER
tain amount--20 per cent of the haul
and safe getaway. If they are
arrested they are given counsel.
There is no security that cannot
be handled. And there are clearing
houses in Chicago where they are
handled. They pass through at least
five hands-and each pair of hands
deducts 10 per cent commission"
Thirteen men, alleged members OF
the gang, are under arrest in New
York, Louisi said.
