GIBBONS PASSES RESTLESS NIGHT AND IS WEAKER

Baltimore, March 23-Cardinal Gibbons passed a restless night and was weaker this morning, his secre- tary, the Rev. Albert F. Smith said adding however, that the doctor had reported the patients pulse to be good and had told the members of the household that there was no immedi- ate danger unless something unfore- seen sets in.
 His heart action was said to be weak and his temperature low.
 The change for the worse in Car dinaI Gibbons conditions occurred last Sunday night but announcement of the fact was withheld in the hope that the bad turn would prove to be only temporary. As time went on, however, instead of improving, his condition became graver and it was decided to let his friends know the unfayorable state of affairs.
 No attempt was made to minimize the gravity of the cardinals case by members of his household or physi- clan. The latter said the prelate'S conditions was very serious and that he would have to be watched con- stantly. He is unconscious part of the time. The doctor attributed the change to the unusually warm wealth CT of last Sunday.

The note asks that joint commis- sion of experts fix the value of the German deliveries on reparation ac- count but it declares that in any event it would be impossible for Ger many to pay twelve billion marks by the first of May.
 The note concludes as follows:
 '-If, after the experts have con ferred, it is established that there is many she is ready to begin negotia- Gons with the reparations commlS- sion regarding the floating of a loan abroad"
 The reparations commission met this morning to consider the German reply, which was transmitted from Berlin last night
 The Germans failure to pay is deemed a violation of the treaty of Versailles which the commission will report to the allied governments. The allies will then determine what meas ures shall be taken
 It is commented here that the German experts already have been heard by the commission which lis tened to their arguments before hx1ng the valuation of the German dellv- the twenty billion marks This valua- ton therefore wes considered final, since the treaty gives the commls- sion sole jurisdiction in the matter.
 The German reply does not answer directly the commissions demand for n first payment of 1,ooo,0OO,oOO marks today.
 (This po.nt, however. Is covered on Inc face of things by Germany'S con- tention of overpayment of the entire amount due by May 1-)
 There is nothing said in the note neveItth e1ess, to show that it would be impossible for Germany to pay this one billion marks, which the reparation commission knows that Germany has available in gold, as well as in foreign securities, 1t IS stated.

THINK THIS VLvLANL'S
 MISSION

Paris, March 23.-The corner| stone of a new triple associa-I ton of nations = the United States, England and France may be laid at Washington by Former Premier Viviani, now en route to America on a special mission to see President Harding. M Viviani is due to: reach New York on Sunday. The view of a possible new society of powers was set forth today by Henry F'ranklin-Bouil1on, former member of the French cabinet, and until recently chairman of the foreign deputies. M. F'ranklin-BouiIIon feels that under no circumstances will the United States enter the League of Nations or link herself in military alliances with her two big allies in the recent war. But he does believeA effectively to maintain the peace of the world.
 Sending M. Viviani to the United States on such a special mission may contribute to modify Americas atti-s tude toward Europe" said M. Frank Hn-Bouillon.
 -''Let us hope so, but let us realize that his task is a hard one. The evil done by the treaty of Versailles is so profound that it is difficult to see how it can be repaired.
 NThe system adopted at Versailles reposed on the League of Nations and on the French-Anglo American pact From the financial point of view, the League of Nations does not exist.

Will Investigate Forcing Of Clients
 Into Bankruptcy

Elimination of a prevailing prac- tse on the part of a coterie of un- scrupulous Bridgeport lawyers to virtually force clients into bank rupttcy is planned in a sweeping in vestigation by Judge John J. Keogh, referee in bankruptcy in Fairfield county The efforts of Judge Keogh to clardfy the alleged tainted atmos- phere of county bankruptcy courts by the abolition of certain prevailing customs detrimental to public inter- ests has already resulted in the in- so-called "bankrupty ring of Bridge port in the New Haven courts on the charge of SeTeting assets.

.Stillnaa1, Fights
 Counsel Fees and Alir7aoray Demand

White Plains, N- Y, March 23- Alleging that Mrs. James A. Still man had taken as her lover an Indian guide who became the father of her infant, Guy,'' Delancey NicoT, chief of counsel for the multi-nilIionaire banker in his divorce suit, made a sensational fight in the Supreme Court here today against the wife's demand for S120, 1000 aIimony annual iy and $25,0O0 counsel fees.
 Counsel for the president of the great National City Bank of New York City, presented figures to show that his income last year was S536,- 900, not sufficient to meet the wife's demands.
 The hearing was brief and the ex- pectation of sensational revelations was not realized. When the case was ended at 10:30 o'clock Justice Nor schauser reserved decision on, Mrs. StilIman's a1imony motion.
 A plea that Mrs. Stillman be grant ed but s2O,00O yearly alimony and S5O.oOO counsel fees instead of the larger sum she sought was made by Attorney Nichol. The attorney ar gued that this sum was granted in the famous Gould divorce which then did not believe it should be surpassed in the present case
 Justice Morschauser ruled that the whole question was affected by the le- gitimacy of Guy, the 30 months old infant of Mrs. StillIlian and gave the lawyer until Saturday to file addi- tional pa pers bearing upon this issue.
