hear objections by Lieutenant Dechert
in the accounting by Mrs. Shannon,
and Mr.. Flanagan. his uncle, as execu-
tors under his grandmother's will.
Takes Testimony Two Years.
Mr.. Quinn took testimony In the case
for two years in order to determine the
accountability of Mrs. Shannon for the
acts of her brother, and finally de-
cided that the decisions in similar
cases compelled him to hold that both
Mrs. Shannon and Mr.. Flanagan
should account for Lieutenant Dech-
ert's $4,000. with interest since
1905.
Counsel for Mrs. Shannon objected
to the liability ruling against her on
the ground that she had acted inno-

Coward smiled to himself over her
unaccustomed violence. Mrs. Hardy
must be deeply moved when she for
got to be correct. He had readily sur
missed the occasion of her distress. It
needed no words from Mrs. Hardy to
tell him that Irene and Dave were en-
gagged. He had expected it for some
time, and the information was not al
together distasteful to him. He had
come somewhat under the spell Of
Irene's attractiveness, but he had no
deep attachment for her. He was not
aware that he had ever had an abid-
ing attachment for any woman. At
tachments were things which he put
on and off as readily as change of
clothes. He planned to hit Dave
through Irene, but he planned that
when he struck it should be death
blow. Their engagement would lend
sharper edge to his shaft.
1t may as well be set down that for
Mrs. Hardy Coward had no regard
whatever. Even while he shaped soft
words for her ear he held her in con-
tempt. To him she was merely a silly
old woman.
From the day he had first seen Mrs.
Hardy his attitude toward her had
been one of subtle flattery, partly be-
cause it pleased his within and partly
on that same day he had seen Irene,
and he was shrewd enough to know
that his approach to the girls affec-
tons must be made by way of the &C
workmanship which he would estab-
fish under the guise Of friendship for
her mother. Since his trouble with
Dave Coward had a double purpose
in developing that acquaintanceship.
He had no computations as to his
method Of attack. While Dave was

lead of J. A. o. Preus, governor-elect,
over DR.. Henrik Shipstead, Tewnley
candidate, now is 132,267.
The constant increase of the Preus
lead has been one of the striking fea-

asst Tuesdays election. The Shipstead
managers have been hoping for some

The vote in 3,067 precincts is:

Indications are that the total vote in

'ected that it would pass $4,000
The Harding lead over Cox in Min

TURK PACT
Is SIGNED
Allies To Support One Another
I'm Maintaining Infiu-
ence

Paris-France, Great Britain and
Italy have signed a tripartite agree
ment in which they agree to support
each other in maintaining their
spheres of influence in Turkey. The
limits Of the areas in which the re
spective special interests of France
and Italy are recognized are defined
by the same document
Pact Signed August 10.
This agreement, it developed, was
signed at Sevres, August 10, the day
the public ceremonial of the signig OF
the peace treaty with Turkey took
place. Although the agreement, it is
explained, is not considered a secret
one, it nevertheless never has been
made public until now, after a lapse
of nearly three months since the sign
ing. Under it's own terms the docu-
ment was to come into force and be
published at the time the Turkish
peace treaty should go into effect. This
date is still an uncertainty.
British Sphere in Doubt.
the text of the agreement now avail
able, attention is being called here to
the fact that while the treaty defines
the spheres of influence of France and
Italy-recognizing the special inter
ests of France in Cilicia and the West
ern part of Kurdistan bordering on
Syria, and of Italy in Southern Ana
tolia-the British spheres of influence
are not only underlined but are not
mentioned This has raised the ques-
ton II the agreement is susceptible OF
the Interpretation that the British in
terests may be held to extend to any
or all the remaining parts of tt e Turk
ish empire
Diplomatic Support Pledged.
It is noted also, that while the agree
ment does not take the form of an al
lance, it pledges the contracting
powers to render diplomatic support
to each other in maintaining their re-
spective positions in the areas in
which their special interests are re-
cognized"
One section of the document pro-
vides for the exploitation of the Bag
dad railway by company in which
British, French and Italian capital is
equally interested. 1t gives the ex-
ploitation of the Heraolea coal mines,
between Konieh and Adana, to Italy.
Article ten Of the agreement pro-
vides that nothing contained in it
shall prejudice the rights of nations
of nonsignatory states to free access
to the various areas for commercial
and economic purposes.
