GREEK CHAMBER

London, Oct. 2S.-The Greek Cham
ber of Deputies has elected Admiral p
Coundouriotis as regent of Greece by
vote of 1877 to 3, says a dispatch to
the London Times from Athens. Ad-

other nations will probably be repre-

The entire press of Greece, in COM
menting on the death of King Alex
ander deplore the loss of the young
sovereign. who during a short reign.
had won great popularity.
The body of King Alexander was
conveyed yesterday from Tatoi to the
Cathedral in Athens in his own motor
car, which was driven by his great
friend, Lieutenant Stavro Metaxas.
The coffin was draped in the royal
flag.
The improvised hearse was followed
by several motor cars, in the first of
which was Dowager Queen Olga with
a lady in waiting, while in the second
was the widow of the king. Nine.
Manos, accompanied by Mr.. Gryparis,
grand marshal of the court.
The members of the cabinet and
high officials waited the arrival of
cortege at the cathedral, in which the
body was placed on a catafalque
guarded by a special detail of soldiers
and officers.
After brief prayers, the mourners
withdrew and the public was admitted
to the cathedral The crowd was so
dense that it was extremely difficult
to maintain order.
In medical circles here the opinion
is expressed that the kings death was
due mainly to hepatization of the
lungs, followed pulmonary congestion,
and an affection of the heart. The
blood poisoning perhaps could have
been cured, it was said. as frequently
occurs.
King Alexander was kept alive for
days by artificial means. During his
moments of lucidity his morale seemed
good. He only realized the gravity
of his condition the last two days and
all his thoughts were for his wife. At
the end Alexander attempted to en-
brace her, but breathed his last be-
fore he could do so.
Dowager Queen Olga arrived the
day after the death of the king. There
was a pathetic scene between the aged
dowager queen and her, morganatic
granddaughter and the two remained
alone in the death chamber a half
hour.

Boston Braves Seek Training Camp Here
NEXT WEEK WILL
SEE STRIKE END
(By Associated Press.)

London, Oct. 28.-The prospect
tonight is that the coal strike will
terminate by the end of next week
through the miners acceptance of
the agreement arranged with the
government under which the miners
will get two shillings advance un-
conditionally until the end of the
year, and in the future their wages
will be settled by the creation of a
national wages board.
In the event of any delay in
starting the wage board wages will
in the interval be settled on the
basis of increase or decrease ac-
cording to surplus profits or other
wise from coal exports.
The agreement is skillfully ar
ranged, so that all concerned, in
cluding the coal owners, will be in
terested in increasing the output, as
in case of a decreased output the
owners will also be penalized by
reduction in their ten percentage
share of the surplus profits.

camp for a period Of three weeks or
a month.
There are certain requirements that
we must have:
!. A suitable baseball diamond with
showers and locker accommodation
for the players.
2. First class hotel accommodations
with an Al table. Major league bah
players are accustomed to stop at such
hotels as the Auditorium in Chicago,
the Astor in New York: the Majestic
in Philadelphia; the Buckingham in
St. Louis; the Gibson in Cincinnati,
etc. It is needless to state that the
players are at all times well behaved
and in no sense undesirable guests.

We usually have about forty per-
sons in our party including six Bos-
ton newspapermen who daily send
back a column story Of the practice
and naturally write much about the
city in which the camp is located.

NO OLICARCHY,
SAYS HARDING
Republican Nominee Denies He
is Candidate of Any Clique
or Combination.
(By Associated Press,

Akron, o.. Oct 28.-Replying tc
charges of a sensational aligarcfly'
Senator Harding declared in a speech
here tonight that he was not the cam
didate of any clique or combination.
but was absolutely 4unpledged" and
"unbossed.'
Renewing his challenge to demo-
cratic leaders to show any inconsis-
tency or change of position in his ut
terances on the league issue, Senator
Harding declared in a speech here to-
night that he had stood unfailingly
against accepting membership in the
Versailles league but in favor of an
international association founded on
principles of justice.
The republican nominee also reit-
Grated his faith in party government
and asserted that he did not dseire to
be president unless republican con-
gress also were elected to translate re-
publican promises into performances.
He made special plea for republi-
can senate, declaring the nation owed
to the present senate a debt of graft
tude that never could be paid. Charges
of a senatorial oligarchy" he pro-
nounced as entirely false.
Quoing from British publication
which declared the United States was
doing more than any other nation in
world rehabilitation by its contribu-
tions to European relief the nominee
said:
That is the soul of America. Talk
about breaking the heart of the world.
America is healing the heart of the
word. But even if the heart break
ing tragedy were true, l would rather
break the heart of the world than de-
stroy the soul of American national
tty.'
In his discussion of party govern
ment and the league Senator Hard
ing said:
Il know very well that the Ameri
can people are thinking of calling the
republican party back to- service in
the nation.
IL would not want to be your presi-
dent unless you are going to give us
republican congress. to translate repub-
Iican promises into legislative enact
ments. 1t is very important to have
majority in the United States senate
and you ought always to think of the
senate as saving to you your, Ameri-
can liberty. Don't be distressed about
the so-called senatorial oIigarchy
There is none. think we would have
succeeded this year in harmonizing
the senate into a completely useful
agent if it had not been for the inter-
ference of the chief executive, who
was not satisfied with running his own
end of Pennsylvania avenue.
oh they say, you cannot tell
where Harding stands on the league
We'll let me say if I can tell you
where 1 stand. I am at least entitled
to speak for myself. I have been
speaking since the 22nd of last July
and challenge any democrat in Amer
lea, high or low, to find a contradiction
in anything 1 have said.
Il said in the beginning that we
were opposed to an armed military al
lance with the Old World. and I say
1t now. 1 have said frequently and
say now that we are never going TO
have anything to do with a league
with article ten in it.

does not intend to accept that league.

SUGAR DEALERS
 GETTING WORRIED

Sugar dealers are not so happy as they were a few weeks ago. They are learning what happens when you force the price of an article up to an exorbitant level. The law of Sup ply and Demand, like the mills of the gods, grinds slow, but it grinds ex- ceeding fine. It is working now, and it is bringing here from all over the world an ample supply of sugar. AL
 so beet sugar production has been
 stimulated, and a large crop is forth
 coming. Now sugar dealers are begging the government to protect them from the collapse of the speculative struc- ture that has been built up out of the earnings of the people. They will not get much sympathy. There would be no tears shed if a lot of the people who have been getting rich should now form the acquaint- ance of the bankruptcy court.

TRYING FOR MORE
 UNIFORMITY IN
 STATE STATUTES
Other Legislative Reforms Considered By American
 Bar Association.

St. Louis, Aug. 25-Conprehensive
 legislative reforms were before the
 American Bar Association for con
 sideration as the organization con-
 vened in annual session here today.
 The proposed changes, covering a
 wide range, were presented in reports
 submitted by various committees.
 They tended in part toward uniform ity for state statutes and moderniza-
 tion of certain Federal court proce-
 dure.
 Discussion of methods for main
 taining the standard of the bar on a high level also promised to hold an imp portant place in the convention. A report prepared by the commit tee on professional ethics and griev- ances, stated canvass of members of the judiciary throughout the United States indicated that prevailing senti~ ment favored the incorporation of the
 bars of various communities, with the Canon of Ethics as a part of the con stitution of the corporations, which would have full power to supervise the conduct of all practicing attor- neys.
 In advocating legislation that would empower the Supreme Court to pre- scribe rules for common law proce- dure in Federal courts, report from the committee on uniform JuO1C1al procedure stated this would have the effect of doing away with long-drawn- out litigation, and would tend to i'm prove state court procedure, through the adoption of the federal system as a model. This latter would also 1 mark important step toward uni l flying state statutes, the report ex- plained.
 A further measure of suggested re- ! form urges ampliicatlon Of the law governing removal of causes to defin- l itely settle the question of district court Jurisdiction.
 I It is urged also by the committee l on Jurisprudence and law reform that l legislation be enacted to provide more adequate protection for the trea- l ty rights of foreigners in the United l States.
 The association will be called upon to endorse ratification of the peace | treaty, including the covenant of the League of Nations. without amend | ments, in a majority report present ] ed by a special committee A min

The people who have made the bA profits on such a deal are not usually the ones who suffer when the smash comes. The dealers who are now complaining may have made no great gains, while others who got in to the game early. have pocketed their swag and cleaned up. Prob ably the biggest gains were made by Cuban speculators, who long ago got cash for their crop at a most ex- tortionate rate.
 The retail trade has been whip sawed in this game, and is likely to lose money on its sugar transactions But the people who have played the most cautious game will have come out the best.
 Some who have stocked up heavily, have failed to foresee the results of exorbitant prices on any staple, and must pay the penalty. Now if the law of Supply and Demand can only work with equal remorselessness in the matter of news print, the two greatest price abuses of this period will have been relieved.
