INDIGO KING PASSES

Natchez, Miss, June 11.-With the
death Of James Surget the last male
descendant of cne of the famous in
digo kings of the South has passed
away.
In 1882 Pierre Surget obtained a
plantation b. Spanish grant and
planted indigo. Indigo was being
grown extensively in Louisiana at
that time and found ready market.
The Surget fortune soon was made
and many years afterwards the little
town of Cherry Grove came into ex-
istence on part of the plantation.
1t was there that James Surget was
born and died. He left daughter.
Although S4 years old James Sur
get never rode in an automobile nor
used telephone. A breeder of
thoroughbred race horses and a de-
votee of racing, he boasted that he
never bet dollar.
The casket containing his body was,
at his request, borne to the fsmily
burying ground by old negroes, for
mer slaves to the family.

ASQUITH FOR DOMINION
HOME RULE IN IRELAND
Would AlIou Her to HaUe
Separate Military Force.

LONDON, Oct. 5 Tuesday, In COM
.nunlcation printed In the London Times
to-day, Herbert II. Asquith. former
Prime Minister. declares that he is con-
vinced that the bestowal upon Ireland
OF the status of an autonomous domin-
ion. in the fullest and widest sense. Is
the only solution OF the Irish problem.
To accomplish this says Mr.. Asquith. it
IS necessary to make the Irish people
believe that what Is offered comes from
an honest and also a reliable source.
Mr.. Asquith says no British Domin-
ion claims the right TO a separate for
eign policy of its own, and that the
tendency Is toward fuller cooperation
by the Dominions in all external rela-
lions. Concerning naval and military
forces Mr.. Asquith writes: mo Irish
Government could be so insane as to
mortgage its scanty margin of resources
for such fruitless and costly enter
prise as the creation of an Irish navy,
nor seek to deny free access to Irish
ports and harbors of vessels of the Inn
perial navy. Further. no grant Of auton-
omy could be regarded as complete
which did not include the right to raise
and maintain for purposes of local de-
fence an adequate military force"
Mr.. Asquith adds that fiscal indepen-
dence Is a necessary incident to Do
minion rule.

BRITISH BURN MORE
HOUSES IN REPRISAL
Surprise Irish Civilians and
Capture Ammunition.

DUBLIN, Oct. 4.--General headquar-
tors states that twenty soldiers to-day
surprised sixty civilians preparing an
ambush on the Cork Bandon road. On
seeing the patrol the civilians fled. One
was killed. Several shotguns and am
munition, ten bicycles and steel helmets
civilians in their flight.
Following an unsuccessful Sim Fem
raid for the purpose of burning the
police barracks at French Park, County
OF Roscommon, Sunday, reprisals also
were carried out In that neighborhood
Sunday morning by police and military
in motor lorries. At Ballinagare two
shops and the residence of farmer
were burned by means of bombs and
petrol. The house and furniture of "a
prominent Gaelic leader were also
burned. A farmer was stabbed and
there was considerable sho citing.
The Dublin corporation to-day decided
to accept an offer of the Munster and
Leinster Bank TO purchase redeemable
stock at the value Of S1,000,000. Alder
man Cosgrove, Sim Fem chairman Of
the finance committee. explained that
there were DEGREES against the corpora
ton to the extent of $4,000 for GRIM
inal injuries and potential DEGREES to the
amount of 100000.
DR.. MacWalter said they were ac-
cepting the offer under ordinary local
government board rules and were thus
following the procedure Of that body
which they had pledged themselves not
to recognize.

NAMING OF PRELATE
RUFFLED FRENCH
POpe's Transfer of Cardinal

Politics.
CONSIDERED AS A SLIGHT

Party Victory.

Staff Correspondent Of THE HERALD.
Copyright, 1890, by THE New York HERALD.
PARIS, Oct. AT a moment when re-
sumption of diplomatic relations be-
tween France and the Vatican Is con-
sidered foregone conclusion the Pope's
nomination of Cardinal Dubois, for
merly Archbishop of Rheims, as Arch
bisop Of Paris. to succeed the late Car
dinal Annette. without consulting the
French Government has caused pro-
found political disturbance here.
There is no complaint regarding the
personality of the new nominee for the
high place of Archbishop of Paris. who
was entrusted by the French Govern
ment not long ago with an important
semi-political mission to Syria and was
decorated with the Legion of Honor.
However, the opinion here seems to be
that the Pope's action is a slight to
France at a time when Government and
public sentiment is more favorable
toward the Vatican than at any Tina
since the first Clemenceau Government
broke off relations between Church and
State In 1904. Already there is a French
Charge d'Affaires at the Vatican, and
the appointment of Minister or, per-
haps. Of an Ambassador, to that post
Is only awaiting the reconvening of tbs
French Parliament At the same time,
the French Charge d'Affaires at the
Vatican has not been informed by the
Pope of the appointment of Cardinal
Dubois.
The real seriousness of the situation is
the fact that the so-called Radical party,
which is composed largely of profess
sional politicians has as its only plank
anti-clericalism, and the fear is that IT
will use this opportunity to attempt to
overthrow the Leagues Ministry, with
the result, If it succeeds. that the
French foreign policy would be upset for
a long time.
Conservative French newspapers urge
the public TO suspend Judgment until
the arrival here of the Osserudtore
Romano, the organ of the Vatican. to
see If the announcement of the APP
pointment of Cardinal Dubois as. Arch
bishop of Paris Is in the official section
of that newspaper, for If 1t is not there
the announcement of his appointment
Is premature.
Some circles here see the appointment
of Cardinal Dubois as a victory for the
Ultrnmontane--the u1tra<Catholic and
Royalist party.

VIENNA IN FAVOR OF
UNION WITH GERMANY
Belief Annexationists Will
Win in Plebiscite.

VIENNA, Oct. Q (deiayed) The hostile
reaction Of France TO the proposed Aus
trlan plebiscite on fusion with Germany,
"a reflected In Paris dispatches. was not
unexpected here. The Austrian Govern
ment all along has professed 10 have In
formation that France was opposed 20
such move, but that she was alone In
her opposition, the United States and
Great Britain being Indifferent. while
Italy was actually DESTROYS OF its accom-
plishment.
The belief Is expressed here that JuRo-
Slavia and Czecho-Slavia would oppose
the fusion strongly as once more giving
Germany a thrust eastward with the
menace OF extending the German from
tiers so as to bring the former boun-
daries together. Allied representatives
here, while convinced that much OF the
agitation undoubtedly Is intended as a
threat to enable Austria to secure for
eign credits and modification of the
treaty terms, generally admit that the
plebiscite. IL held. will show a majority
In favor of union with Germany.
wAsHTSGroN, Oct 4.--The Austrian
Governments view that Italy favors
union between Austria and Germany Is
correct. according to n high italian
authority In Washington. The Italian
view holds that tho peace treaty has left
Austria without resources for the main
tenance of its population and that
union between Austria and Germany is
absolutely necessary 10 the very exist
ence OF tho Austrian people.

TO FORBID AUSTRIA
JOINING GERMANY
France Will Oppose Pro-
posed PIebiscite Elections.

Special Cable Despatch TO THE HERALD,
Copyright, 1920, by THE New YogK HERALD
PARIS, Oct. 4.--The French Govern
mcnt intends to protest before the
Council Of Ambassadors against the ac-
ton Of the Austrian Assembly in arrang-
ing for plebiscite on the question of
Austria's attachment to Germany in
conjunction with the Austrian elections
in October. The French view Is that
this constitutes plain violation OF the
spirit Of the Treaties OF Versailles and
81. German and represents the work
of pan-Germans in Austria directed from
Berlin, despite the Introduction of this
in the Versailles Treaty.
Austria intends to apply for admis-
sion to the League of Nations in Novem-
Der and the plebiscite seems to be the
first step in a we'll organized plan to
get the league to approve annexation to
Germany, based not only on the principle
Of self determination but on the ground
of economic necessity.

FRENCH TO CONFER
ON PREPARATIONS
Germans in Paris Expect In
formal Talks to Precede
Geneva Meeting.
BRUSSELS rs INTERESTED
Work of Financial Congress
Depends in Part on Plan
Adopted.

PARIS, Oct. 4.-Germany will expect
the Allies TO keep the promise given at
Spa that the total sum Of Preparations to
be demanded of Germany shall be fixed
at the Geneva conference this autumn.
Gerhard Won Mutius. head of the German
financial delegation IN Paris. Informed
the Associated Press to-day. To pre-
pare the basis he said, there probably
would be direct. but informal. negotia-
tons between French and German ex-
perts.
Neither the time nor place of the
rreeting nor any Of the details OF such
conversations regarding reparations,
Herr Won Mutius declared, had yet been
determined upon, and 1t was learned in
other quarters that 1t might be consid-
cred desirable to avoid publicity in con-
nection with these direct negotiations
because the strong pressure OF public
opinion in both countries might make
The task of reaching an agreement more
difficult.
1t became known to-day that Sigmund
Bergman, German representative at the
Brussels Financial Conference, came to
Paris Saturday night. DR.. Goeppert,
head OF the German peace delegation in
Paris, said that arrangements for Ger
French meeting in Paris had not
yet been completed, but that the matter
was being studied.
BRussELs, Oct 4.-Reports that direct
negotiations might be held between
France and Germany with a view to
tffecting a definite agreement on a
separations plan greatly interested the
delegates to the International Financial
Conference.
The unsettled state of the reparations
question is understood to be making 1t
difficult for the committee on Public
Finance to make Roadway with its work.
Four different States represented here
consider the settlement upon definite
reparations plan depends virtually upon
what they are able to do in the way or
arranging their public finances.
1t is understood the Germans will ask
France to support their demand for the
return of part of their merchant ship
ping in order to facilitate an economic
revival and hasten the payment of
Preparations. They will also ask Great
Britain to release its sequestered Ger
man owned property In order that this
might be used as guarantee for credits
for the purchase OF raw material.
DR.. Simons, the German Foreign Min
lister, was reported recently by the Paris
Journals correspondent at Berlin as ex-
pressing to the French Ambassador there
the hope that France and Germany
would conduct direct negotiations on the
question Of reparations. It was added
that. upon the initiative OF Germany
there had already been an exchange OF
