TO PICK SUCCESSOR TO A. A. CREENBERC Republicans Meet TOmor- row Night to Nominate
 New Prosecutor.

A meeting of the republican mem bers of the common council will be held tomorrow evening at o'clock at the office of Mayor 0. C. Curtis in City Hall. ''to act upon the prose- cutting attorneyship."
 Other than to make this announce ment, the mayor had nothing to say concerning the meeting.
 If q nominee is selected whose name is to be offered to Wednesday evenings session of the council, the incident will take on the aspect of a discharge in some circles rather than the acceptance of resignation, since the mayor will not bring Greenberg's $ resignation before the caucus.
 Greenbergs term of office will not expire for several months. As far as tomorrow evenings caucus will be concerned, there is no resignation since that body will receive none. Yet. if they decide to nominate man to replace Greenherg, the conclusion drawn by some followers of the case is that he Is being discharged
 The general supposition Is that the council is anticipating the resignation which Mir. Greenberg states has all ready been sent to the mayor. The nomination will be ready for presen- tation as soon as the resignation is acted upon.

 All the theHtcrs except the two clos ed by state police and one voluntarily closed, are open and expect to con tinue giving performances.

Washington. Dec. 19.-The murder at Constantinoplc in September of 17 Armenian women and children, who came to the United States seeking safety but who were ordered de- ported by immigration authorities was reported to the house immigra- tion. committee by C.

 These were deported as being in excess of the quota allowed from their country.
 Details of the killing were obtained Mir. Knightly said from a student at Roberts college Constantinople in a letter to an Armenian student at Bos- ton whose mother and sister were among those killed. From the best information obtainabe he declared, the women and children were first outraged by Turks and then murdered because there was no means for their upkeep and they were considered in the way"
 Mir. Knightly told the committee that 2S Armenians, women and chil- dren were at Ellis Island and 80 at East Boston awaiting deportation probably today or tomorrow. After he had offered to give personal bond for each, Chairman Johnson endeav- ored to get into communication with the department of labor to see if could not be done in their bD in, ,-io of i,,o Knightly that they were certain to meet a similar fate when they step ashore on Turkish soil.

That the sympathy of the people in this city is with the sale of Christmas seals for the tuberculosis relief work even where it is found impossible be cause of working conditions to pur- chase, is shown by letters which come into the Board of Health or to Mrs. Maurice Stanley treasurer of the com mittee.

 Dear Mrs. Staney:--

Political Significance Is Suspected as Both Woods and Sexton Are Candi- dates for Appointment.
HEAVY FINES GIVEN "DRY" TRANSGRESSORS

Mayor Orson r. Curtis was an in- terested spectator in police court this morning when Acting Prosecutor Jo- seph G. Woods and Defense Counsel Michael A. Sexton. both candidates for the office Of prosecutor, staged legal set-to over liquor charges involving Mr. Sextons client, Archard Hamper sonian. Lawyer Woods presented the States case and Mir. Sexton handled and imposed fine of s150 and costs.
 Attendance Significant
 Those in attendance at the court ses- sion were of the opinion that there was something significant in the mayors presence Both attorneys have announced their candidacy and each has been seen in conference with the mayor, It has been suggested that pos sibly the mayor wanted to see these two rivals in action. The matter of electing prosecutor will come before the council Wednesday evening when the resignation of Prosecutor Albert A. Greenherg will be presented.
 The mayor has attended but one session of the court since his election, and in that case it was because he had been summoned as a witness. He did not arrive today until after the conclu- sion of 10 minute recess just pre- ceeding the opening of the liquor case, which was the last on rather leng- thy docket. He left the court room and station immediately after judgment had been handed down by Judge Alling.

 The interpretation put upon Pre- micr liriand's interview with Ambas- sador Harvey in official circles here this afternoon was that Frances ac- coptanCc of the American point of view as to naval tonnage was an ac- Ceptancc "iu principle" only so far as capital ships were concerned and that it did not alter the French insistence upon adequate allowances of the sub marines and cruisers.
 It was also declared that so far as the official advices received here showed no definite ratio had yet been accepted by France.
