KING PETER OF
SERBIA PASSED
AWAY A PAUPER
(By the Associated Press.)

Belgrade, Dec. 0.--Intcresting
details have come to light respect
ing the late King Peter. Serbia's
venerable ruler, and tho grand old
man" of Europe, who passed away
in this city a short time ago.
During his last illness the king
asked frequently for his son Alex
ander, who found it impossible to
be with him because of his own
serious illness in Paris He was
much attached to the prince re-
gent and referred to him as my
little Aleck." He had the fullest
confidence in him and during the
last years of his life left
affairs of state entirely in his
hands.
He had been especially anxious
that his son Should marry Princess
Olga, daughter of the czar of Rus
sia, but whatever prospect there
was for the match disappeared in
the murder of the beautiful prin-
cess by the bolsheviki.
The king died poor man.
Whatever personal possessions he
had were lost during the tragic re-
treat to Corfu in the grim days of
1915 when the German hordes
overran the little Slav state. When
the correspondent asked one of the
late monarch old friends If the
king had left any legacies, he re-
piled: Yes, a wooden trunk, a
bedstead, a few ikons, a great
character and an undying men,
ory."

Washington, Dec. 30.-- Especially
Unless Senator Truman II. New
berry, of Michigan, appears on
the floor of the senate and defends
himself against corruption charges
that grew out of his expensive pri-

Notice to this effect has been

GIANT LIQUOR
RAID SUCCEEDS
NEAR CHEYENNE:
Liquor Valued at More Than
$4,000 Confiscated; 66
Arrests Made During Two
Day Raid.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Dee 50 (by the

special cars, one carrying forty-one
special deputies and the other con-
fiscated liquor valued at more than
$4,000 seized in raids conducted
Wednesday and Thursday in Rock
Springs, Green River and South
Superior, Mr.. Jackson gave some
insights into what is in his opin-
ion. the largest general liquor raid
ever conducted in the United States
by federal officers alone in an at
tempt to clean up 1.-The wettest spot
in western America"
Acting under permission from
National Prohibition Director
Haynes and Attorney General
DaNgherty, the mobilization of the
fortX-one special deputies among
friends of Cheyenne federal Off
cials was ACCOMPLISHED in two days.
The special car moved out OF
Cheyenne under sealed orders, not
even the train crew knowing its
destination until shortly before
Rock Springs was reached.
Acting on evidence which had
been gathered in an exhaustive in
vestigation, the deputies, each pro-
yided with map showing the exact
location of the liquor to be seized
and a search warrant, set to work.
As fast as arrests were made, the
persons were taken before United
States commissioner, who accom-
panied the party, given a hearing
and their bonds set. The liquor
was tested in a complete laboratory
with which the special car was
equipped.
Sixty-six were arrested during the
two days of the raid, in each in
stance, according to Mr. Jackson
evidence already having been se-
cured that would warrant prosecu-
tion.

Closed Friday.
tBy The Associated Press.3

Washington, Dec. 30.-Senate
tariff makers plan to start next
week the drafting of the so-called
permanent tariff bill, passed by the
house last spring. Their aim IS to
have the measure ready for the
senate by early February but, be-
cause Of the great task involved In
passing on moro than 100000
items in the bill. this hope may not
be realized.
The first task before the finance
committee is a decision as to the
adoption of straight-out Ameri-
can valuation plan of assessing
duties or the substitution Of n
plan similar to that outlined by
President Harding in his message
to congress early this month. Most
members of the committee appar-
entity are agreed that some special
arrangement will have to be made
if the measure to be drawn is to
afford real protection to American
industry from the cheap producing
countries in central Europe.
Hearings on the tariff virtually
were closed today. though on jan
uary Q Representatives of the South
ern Tariff association will appear.
Lumber and dairy products were
the principal subjects discussed to-
day. the lumber hearings being

ARMS CONFERENCE ENDS
EFFORT TO PUT CURB ON
NATIONS NAVAL POWER
NAVAL SECTION
OF PARLEY HAS
BRIEF RECESS

Washington, Dec. 80 (by the AS
sociated Press.) - Agreements
reached today by the naval COM
mittee of the arms conference in
cluded size and aggregate tonnage
limitations on aircraft carriers and,
subject only to French government
confirmation, on size and arma-
ment of auxiliary craft.
That cleared the committees
decks, pending replies from the
French and Japanese governments
on the Root resolutions to initiate
the banning definitely Of subma-
rine warfare against commercial
craft. Adjournment was taken
indefinitely, but probably only un-
til next week, when these COM
munications are expected to have
been received and completion of
the naval limitation agreement in
committee made possible.
The American proposal to limit
auxiliary craft other than aircraft
carriers to 10000 tons and their
armament to guns of not more
than eight-inch bore was approved
formally by all delegations but the
French, who deferred formal an
swer pending advices from Paris.
The American proposal to limit
aircraft carriers to a maximum OF
$1,000 tons displacement was unan-
imously accepted, the basis of rel
ative aggregate tonnage arranged
being Great Britain and the Unit
ed states $4,000 tons each, or five
carriers of the maximum size;
Japan, $1,000 tons or three ships
of the maximum tonnage; France
and Italy, $4,000 tons each, or a
little more than would be required
for two maximum size ships. The
French tonnage resulted from the
statement of French experts that
on examination of the question
France might prefer to have three
10000 ton carriers to two 27,0OO
ton craft.

Stinson was forced to descend
because of faulty oil connection

committee adjourned indefinitely,
leaving determination of various
problems of detail to subcommlt-
tee Of experts.
Some sort of declaration with
regard to use of the submarine and
an agreement not to construct any
auxiliary vessel hereafter, with a
tonnage of more than 10000. are
expected also to be added to the
accomplishments of the conference
before the final curtain Is rung
down. A fiye-power treaty en-
bodying all the points on which
there is agreement now Is in pro-
cess of drafting.
There are growing indications,
too, that the four-power treaty to
preserve peace in the Pacific, which
already has been signed. will be In
some way further clarified before
the conference quits. The Ameri-
can delegation is understood to
have withdrawn any objection to
the Japanese proposal that the
treaty's scope be defined as not In
cludine the major Japanese islands
ana the plan for an EXCHANGE Of
clarifying notes or for amendment
of the treaty text is expected to
take definite form within a few

The japanese request for clari-
fication of the treaty's terms Is
said to have been based largely on
the development of a difference In
view on the subject between Presi-
dent Harding and the American
delegation. This development has
been a topic of such widespread
specuIation in conference circles
that the president today took occa-
sion to chara cterize as "si'ly" pub
lished reports that Secretary
Hughes was considering resigna-
tion from the cabinet as a result OF
differences arising between him
and the White House during the
arms negotiations.
What is to be done about the
Far Eastern problems now be-
comes the big unanswered question
of the conference. Japan and China
are deadlocked in their efforts al
separate settlement of the Shan
tung controversy and as conse-
uuence all the other Far Eastern
discussions are at a standstill. II
was indicated tonight that a meet
ing Of the Far Eastern committee
would be held next week, at which
China would attempt to transfer
the shantung negotiations into the
full conference.
