Preliminary Conference
on Pacific
AFTER TALKING 1T
OVER WITH AMERICA
Will Send Delegates to
Washington Under
Harding's Offer

London, Aug. 2, tBy the Associated
Press Great Britain has dropped the
proposal to hold preliminary confer
snce on Pacific questions and has agreed
to participate in the Washington con
ference as originally suggested by
President Harding, according to Of
fetal circles here to-day.
This decision was reached after an
exchange of conversations between Lon
don and Washington.
Great Britain has also agreed to the
original date suggested, November H.,
the anniversary of armistice day, if
President Harding still considers that
the most suitable time, and will enter
the conference without any reserva-
tions as TO the set program, it was
stated.
Doubt is expressed whether Premier
Hughes of Australia and Premier Mas
sey of New Zealand will be able to at.
tend, but they will, it is said, be repre-
sented by British deputation.
The attendance of Premier LLOYD
George also depends upon circum-
stance, it was stated.

TUFTS FATHER HAD
RECEIVED SI9,86I
Back in 1893 AS Payment for Property
Taken By Fitchburg for School
Purposes.

Boston, Aug. 2-The question wheth-
er district attorney has power to
delegate to an assistant his right to mol
pros cases was left open for future ar
gument and decision in announcement
by Chief Justice Rugg at to-day's ses-
sion of the trial of District Attorney
Tufts of Middlesex county before the
supreme court on charges of malfea
sance in office, The announcement was
made as an amplification of a previous
ruling of the court that where it ap-
peared that actions had been mol
pressed or recommended for filing by
an assistant district attorney, the
prosecution must show that Mr. Tufts
as district attorney had general or
specific knowledge of the matter.
The defense offered letter from
John c. Dexter, city treasurer of Fitch.
burg, by way of support Of Mr.. Tufts
testimony given last week, that in May
or June, 1917, his father gave him
approximately $4,000 in cash as. part
of the estate which the elder Tufts
WAS turning over to him. This was
about the period of the financial end
OF the cases alleged to have arisen
from a dinner attended by motion pie
ture producers at Brownie Kennedys
Manor in Woburn.
The prosecution headed by Attorney
General Allen has included among its
various allegations the charge that the
district attorney conspired with others
TO extort money from the motion pie |
lure men by threats of legal action. |
Mr.. Tufts testimony was intended to |
explain his receipt of a considerable |
sum of money at that time.
The letter from the Fitchburg city |

he sum of Sl9,s6l was paid by the city

BETHEL
Bethel Won From Randolph II to 6,
Last Saturday at Baseball.

The Bethel A. A. baseball team wor
from Randolph last Saturday at Ran
dolph, ii TO 6. The first five Bethel
men up in the first inning tailed, near
ly winning the game right then. Three
consecutive bunts. which simply could
not be fielded opened the inning and
filed the bases. Star was hit, forcing
in a run and then Newton nit for
three bases, sending in three more and
Noble singled, scoring Newton.
Bethel had another big time in the
fifth, when the game was absolutely
put on ice. Singles by Newton, Gia-
camuzzi and Canales and an error by
Key Campbell yielded four runs in
that frame. Stafford was big aequl-
sition and led the Bethel sluggers in
a hard hitting game. He reached
first FIVE consecutive times. once "n
a base on balls and once by an error.
Healey was hurt early In the game
and Aikens succeeded him.
Randolph batsmen could not hit
Canales for any results except in the
fourth and fifth innings when Key
Campbell got two singles, Corwin two
bagger and Morse, Allen and Ken
Campbell, which combined with Giaca-
muzzi's errors gave the home team
all its runs in the game.
The Randolph infeld was kept very
busy and only few errors were made.
There was no scoring in the last three
innings by either team. The home
team staged rally in the ninth. Two
hits and an error looked like a little
closer score. but nothing resulted, Ken
Campbell popping up to Giaeamuzzi
when a hit would have meant two runs
and perhaps three. Ross proved a
great all-round player for Randolph.
The same teams will play here on
Saturday

New York, Aug 2.-T'he New York
stock exchange postponed its opening

The fire, which was believed to have
started from compressed air tank ex-

The flames were prevented from en-
tering the exchange, but great volumes
of smoke flooded the secretary's office,

building. As the cloud of smoke swept
over Wall street, police reserves were
rustd up to check the thousands of
