Basis For Charges,

Waukegan. ILL.,. Dec. 5.-The ques-
ton OF whether Governor Len Small.
Lieutenant Governor Fred Sterling
and Vernon Curtis. banker of Grant
Park. ILL.,. must stand tria! on charges
of embezzling money from the state
OF Illinois, conspiracy. and operating
4 confidence game probably will be
settled when Judge Claire c. Edwards
dispcsss of motions to quash the in
dictments, fled by two of the defend
ants and on which hearing began here
today. The indictments are, based on
the alleged misuse Of state funds dur
ing the terms of Mr. Small and Mr.
Sterling is state treasurer.
Lieut. Gov. Fred Sterling is not a
party to the hearing here. he not hav-
ing asked a change of venue from
Sangamon county. where the indic.-
ments were returned last July The
decision on the legality of the indct-
nlents against Gov. Small and Mr..
Curtis undoubtedly will apply to Mr.
Sterling's case also.
With an imposing arra:, of counsel
ready to argue to the last legal ditch.
indications are that the hearing which
opened today may last week. The
governor and Mr.. Curtis, represented
by Charles c. LeF'orgee. of Decatur:
A. F. Beaubier OF Waukegan and
Werner w. Schroeder Of Springfield,
are attacking the indictments on more
than a score of grounds, including an
allegation that the grand jury itself
was not lawfully selected and organ
lied as required by the laws of the
state OF Illinois, y
The governor also reasserts the con-
tcntion overruied by Judge Smith OF
Springfield. July 26, that his office as
governor renders him immune from
arrest and prosecution for any act al
legged to have been committed prio,
to his election as governor. Where
fore. this defendant" reads the con-
cluding sentence of his raotion to
quash the charges against him, mot
waiving but expressly reserving any
rights affecting the public interest and
pertaining to his office as governor OF

i Refused Conditional Promises.

The closest examination Of the gov

10 well informed quartersa some Of the
delegates were opposed even to the
the Dali cabinet last Saturday, these
delegates being satisfied that accept

endorsed by the Sim Fein in Ireland:
1t did,not take the Dali cabinet long
to decide the issue It appears. After a
short discussion IN which all the cab
met members rejected the govern
ed to the delegates and said:
These are your instructions: they
are the Instructions of the people Of
Ireland" t ss,:
f Expect Hostilities.
The truce continues to exist until
notice of its termination is formally
given. and both the government and
the Sim Fein say they have no inten-
ton of giving that notice. Neverthe-
less, both sides feel, it is declared. that
the course of events will be bound to
involve a renewal Of hostilities.
The Sim Fein delegates visited
Downing Street at 3 o'clock this after
noon. 1t is expected they conferred
with the government Representatives
concerning the question of continuing
the truce.
Time Limit Ends Tuesday.
The time limit set by Sir James
Craig Ulster premier. for the submis-
sion of a further plan by Mr.. Lloyd
George expires tomorrow. Sir James

morrow, and should no new terms be
forthcoming, he is expected to an
