D'ANNUNzIO SAID
 TO HAVE QUIT FIGHT
ZIO LEFT PLUME BY AiRPLANE.

Rome.-D'Anunzio has issued a pro- clamation declaring it is not worth while dying for Italy. He said he was leaving Plume by airplane,
 Settlement of the Plume question, based on. recognition of the treaty of Rapallo. disbandment of d'Annunzio s legionaries and general amnesty is ex pected soon. following receipt of late advices from the blockaded area. The suspension of hostilities previously ordered has been prolonged.
 Negotiations for surrender are pro ceeding with the Municipal Council of Plume. to which d'Annunzio has ceded his powers.
 D'Annunzian legionaires set fire to a powder magazine in the Recina val ley, southeast of the city, according to a report from Azbazia. The explo- set fire to the woods surrounding Plume to the east and great clouds of black smoke rolled down over the city. In some quarters the belief was expressed, the dispatch states, that petroleum refinery near the powder magazine had also been set on fire.
 Italian regular troops surrounding Plume continued to advance west and north of the city, while on the east ern side the situation was unchanged, as the regular troops remain on one side of the Enco river and the legion aires on the other, and it is impossi- ble to cross this stream because the bridges have been destroyed. The fiercest fighting occurred west of tiume. where Aipini, advancing from Castra. reached the public gardens.
 When they had forced their way that far they found all the houses surrounding the gardens had been transformed into machine gun nests from which terrific fire was poured upon them.
 An armored. car advanced against the regulars and inflicted heavy losses. the Alpini throwing themselves on the ground and continuing the struggle for some time. Major Dam- bara, in command of the Alpini, rode through the gardens on horseback and rushed toward the car. but was wound ed twice and his horse shot dead. When the fire ceased Major Dambara was able to struggle toward the car and upon it found three dead legion aires and two seriously wounded com. missioned officers.

BOMB EXPLOSION
 MAY BE SOLVED
SOLUTION OF MYSTERY MAY COME THROUGH WISDOM
 SIN CONVICT.

Milwaukee, Wis.-In the hope of Street bomb explosion, which killed 30 and maimed 100, government Se cret Service men and private agency detectives are hurrying to Waupun penitentiary in Wisconsin, according to the Milwaukee Journal. There they are to interview prisoner who al ready has given to the Journal infor- nation which may lead to the arrest of the perpetrator of the blast, the payer declares.
 This prisoner who is serving long sentence in Waupun, has told story which tends to accuse former pris- on pal of having caused the explosion from radical motive for revenge He claims to have information which would positively identify the suspect to the police of several Eastern cities.
 'I served two years with him in an Eastern prison" said the Waupun prisoner, whose name is withheld.
 This man, who is a foreigner, con. fided to me many crimes. He was an e4peTl III eApiOSiNcs. I1e Wdo diNd cursing Wall Street and fnanciers and was an avowed anarchist.
 Although cursing Wall Street and financiers continually, his first direct threat came following his receipt of money from his aged mother in Flu rope. It consisted of an amount which she said she had made great sacrifices to obtain for him. The ex- change, however. cut the amount down to almost nothing.
 My friend told me that Wall Street and its fnanciers were direct ly responsible for his loss. He con- fided that he intended to get even when he was released. At the Wall Street explosion I thought immediate ly my friend had gotten his revenge.

SHIPMENTS FROM ENGLAND NEARLY BALANCE EXPORTS
 TO SOUTH AMERICA.
CREDIT POLICY REFLECTED
Holdings of Paper Decline $35e ,oo0,. GOO During the Past Year. But Gold Reserve Is Kept Up-Preferen.
 tlal Rates Abrogated.

Washington.-Hol by Federal Reserve banks of paper secured by government war obligations declined from nearly $1,500,000 900 at the open ing of the year to $1,141, ,000 900 on De. cember 31, said the annual review is. sued by the Federal Reserve Board. At the opening of the year." it add ed. "out of l9.100.0 900 of discount ed bills, about AZ per cent was com. posed of paper secured by United States war obligations, against 67 per cent of a total of $2.231 200, ,000 held on the first Friday of the year.
 The goll reserve shows little change at the end of the year as com. pared with 12 months earlier. Al though considerable gold was export' ed to South America and the Orient early in the year, gold shipments from England in anticipation of the maturity of the Anglo-French bonds on October 15 were responsible in a measure for a subsequent recovery, so that on December 30 the amount was only s3,300,000 below the total shown on January 2.
 Increases in capitalization of ex. isting member banks and accessions of new members were responsible in part for an increase in the paid-in cap- ital of the Federal Reserve banks dur ing the year from SS7, 400, ,000 to s99,. S00,000. This corresponds to an in. crease of over S4l1 1,000,000 in capital and surplus of member banks.
 Changes in the condition of the Fed eral Reserve banks during 1920, ac- cording to the review, reflect to a large extent the changes in the credit policy originated about the last of 1919.
 Preferential rates on paper secur. ed by Liberty bonds and Victory notes." the review said, were abro gated by some reserve banks and rais. ed by others to a level more nearly ap. proximating the rate level for ordi. nary commercial paper. In the case of paper secured by Treasury certifi. cates, the rates adopted were in most cases, identical with the higher cou. pon rates fixed by the government thus holding out no inducement to the member banks to carry these securi. ties among their own investments and use them as collateral for loans at the Federal Reserve banks. but rather providing stimulus to place them II tn hands of ultimate investors.

PRESIDENT WILSON SENDS GEN ERAL CROWDER TO WARN IN.
 SUUAR GOVERNMENT.
MORATORIUM IS EXPENDED
The State Department Has Approved Recomne ndations Submitted To the Cuban President By AL
 beit Rathnone.

Washington.-Aroused by the fail bilizie financial and political condi- tions in the island, President Wilson has dispatched Judge Advocate Gener- al Crowder of the army to Havana to confer with President Menocal.
 General Crowder's mission is in. tended to awaken the Cuban people to keen realization of the imminence of American intervention if their gov ernment fails to take the necessary steps to avoid it by remedying the present situation.
 There is reason to believe that Gen. eral Crowder is authorized to intimate to the Cuban president that it will be necessary for the United States to act under the Platt amendment in the event that the financial and political situation in Cuba are not clarified ex- peditiously, especially as there is in- sistent complaint on the part of Amer jeans affected by the moratorium and also as there is possibility of revolution in Cuba should the uncer- tainty concerning the result of the re- cent national election in that country lead the various factions to disregard law and public order
 The moratorium was recently ex- tended by the Cuban government for another month. It became known that the State Department has receiv- ed complaints from all parts of the United States on account of the iinan- cial situation in Cuba, because Amer jeans were subjected to hardslips.
 The State Department has approved the recommendations submitted to the Cuban president by Albert Rath- bone, who recently went to Cuba as financial adviser to the president of Cuba for the improvement of Cubas finances. but so far as is known, the Cuban government has not reacted favorably and Mir. Rathbone's sugges- uons have not been adequate. It is also understood that they coutemplat- cd legislative action by Cuba in order to provide guarantees for the Ameri- can banks which might advance loans to Cuba.
