Russian Makes Discovery OF
Far Reaching Possibilities.

Moscow, Dec. II Cby the A. Pr
Discovery of a method whereby wire
less messages may be sent to def
mite receiving station, without the dan
ger of being picked up by other sta
tions, is claimed in an announcement
by the official press bureau.
A Ukrainian electrical engineer
named Chayko is responsible for the
discovery. 1t is stated that by means
of a simple apparatus he straightens
out and groups what are termed the
locked powerlines'' of the magnetic
field into parallel rays. These rays,
he says. can penetrate mountains,
thereby avoiding the necessity of high
antennae.
1t is also asserted that the discovery
will enable the location from the sur
face of metal deposits in the earth
and will be of service to medical and
other sciences.
Chayko is continuing his expert
ments for the scientific technical de-
partment OF the Ukrainian govern
ment.

WILL MARK TINE
Senate VIII Delay Any Four
Power Pact Debate.
Only the IrrecOnciIables Are
Doing Any Talking Now.

Washington, Dec. 17.-With the pos
sibIe exceptions of a few '1rrecencil-
ables," the senate is to mark time and
preserve silence with regard to the de-
cision of the armament conference
until after the Christmas and New
Year holidays
Not until the conference ends and
the treaties evolved by it are sub
mitted to the senate, will debate on
them be resumed, according to the well
laid plans announced by the Repuph-
can and Democratic leaders
As congress will adjourn Thursday
until January 8, there will be little
opportunity left the 'irreconcilableS'
to again attack the conference decis-
ions in the senate until after the be-
ginning of the new year.
1t is generally understood the ad-
ministration plan is to submit the
four-poweF, naval ratio, zap and emma
treaties to the senate together some
time in January. They are all eX-
senate foreign relations committee,
probably until after the senate has
acted finally on the Ford-Newberry
election controversy
The purpose of the administration
to place ali of its eggs in one basket
and to permit the senate to deal with
all the treaties in relation one to an
other and to all the results of the con-
ference itself. is generally acceptable
to Republicans and Democratic SEN
ators alike.
The holiday adjournment of con-
gress also means that the foreign debt
refunding bill, the tariff and other
important measures will go over until
the new year.

DEAD MAN N Her ROOM
Cousin of Clara Smith-Hamon Previ-
ousIy BROUGHT Mann Act Charges.

Globe, Ariz., Dec. 17.-Police au-
thorities will endeavor today to obtain
a detailed statement from Miss Alma
Smith with reference to the shooting
of Henry L. Christensen, an automo-
bile dealer, who was found dead in
Miss Smiths room in a local hotel
Miss Smith was seriously wounded and
early today had been unable to give
her version of the affair.
According to the police, Miss Smith
claims to be a cousin of Clara Smith
Hamon, who was tried and acquitted
several months ago jim Oklahoma for
the murder of Jake L. Hamon, mil
Lonaire oil man and politician.
Christensen, who was married, was
arrested recently on Mann act charges
preferred by Miss Smith. He was sub
sequently released. The police believe
that Christensen came to Miss Smiths
room for a final meeting" and that
the meeting eliminated in the fatal
shooting.
When hotel attaches forced the door
of the room, Christensen was dead and
Miss Smith was lying on the floor,
revolver at her side.

The usual week end settlement of specula-

trend of prices at the dull opening of to-
days stock market. Such leaders as were
quoted in the initial dealings showed minor
gains or losses. Most of the high priced
domestic and foreign oils strengthened
with various obscure specialties and cOalers
also improved. Lima Locomotive cancel
led part Of its recent advance, falling IA
points. Moderate reactions occurred in
Mexican Petroleum, bethlehem Steel,
Studebaker and Industrial Alcohol. Prellm-
mary quotations for foreign exchange were
irregular, the German rate rallying slight
ly.
Trading in the stock market today was
chiefly noteworthy for the activity and
strength Of speculative issues and heavis
ness or irreguIarity of Investment shares
Numerous stock, comprising the secondary
rails, miscellaneous industriSls, tobacco,
feathers and chemicals rose one to two
points. a few important rails, such as
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, Read

opened mainly at higher levels but reacted
to pressure against Mexicans. General
Asphalt, the California groups and Middle
states. Popular steels and equipments,
Pullman excepted. also lost ground in the
later dealings. The closing was irregular.
Sales approximated $4,000 shares. Bonds
were dull and featureless.

argument that will determine whether
Gov Len Small will go to trial on in
dictments charging conspiracy to en-
bezzlement OF state funds, began be-
fore Judge Claire Edwards in county
circuit court today.
Attorney Charles LeForgee, counsel
for Governor Small, made the final
arguments for the defense. The
prosecution closed its arguments yes

with and to turn heavy guns of oratory
on the conspiracy Indictment.
