where the body lay; and acknowledged
that he had been murdered by two of
their band, though at first they re-
fused to give their names. The COM
mander of the post demanded that the
murderers be given up.
The chiefs said that they were very
sorry, that this could not be done, but
that they were willing to pay over
any reasonable number of ponies to
make amends for the death. This Of
fer was of course promptly refused,
and the commander notified them that
if they did not surrender the murder
ers by a certain time he would hold
the whole tribe responsible and would
promptly move out and attack them.
Upon this the chiefs. after holding full
counsel with the tribe told the COM
mander that they had no power to sur
render the murderers. but that the
latter had said that sooner than see
their tribe involved in a hopeless
struggle they would of their own ac-
cord come in and meet the troops

and die fighting. To this the COM
mander responded. "All right; let
them come into the agency in half an

PLOT Of ROYAL|STS
|MPERILSP FARLEY

INSTITUTIONAL widespread
royalist plot to re-establish monar-
chies in Europe will endanger the
success of the disarmament confer
ence.
European delegates are expected
to point out that the mOnarchial
menace necessitates the mainte-
nance of standing armies to preserve
existing governments.
Reports of royahst intrigues are
continually reaching Washington in
confidential dispatches to United
States officials and to foreign en-
bassies.
The recent failure of ex-King Carl
to regain the Hungarian throne has
not disheartened the royalists. They
believe they can put some other roy
alist on the Hungarian throne.
Headquarters of the mOnarchist
movement is in Paris. Not only do
the monarchists look with longing
eyes toward Hungary, Poland, Prus-
STA and Bavaria, but they even are
figuring on re-establiShing mon
arches in France and Russia.
Prince SiXte, of BourbOn-Parma,
is one of the strongest figures in
the royalist movement. SiXte is a
skillful diplomat and has blood rela-
tives in almost every reigning house
in Europe.
Sixte is a descendant of the Bour-
bon family, for 900 years the most
important noble family in Europe.
He has made Il lifelong study of po-
!itical economy and is an able leader.

Chairman of Board of Man.
ayers of N, Y, Exchange
Sees Price of 80 or 35C in
1922 if Yield Is Short

The south, next year, will get sc
or 35 cents pound for it's cotton
if the growers will limit the crop
to 100000 or 100000 bales, it
was declared Thursday by Louis
Brooks, chairman of the board OF
managers of the New York cotton
exchange, in Atlanta on business.
Mr.. Brooks is a native Of Augusta
and lived in that city, where he was

member of the famous firm of A. A.
Housman & Co, bankers and brok-
ers, and is in Atlanta to open a
branch office of the firm.
The Atlanta branch will be in
the Trust Company Of Georgia build

Brown also is a native Georgian and
a kinsman Of Colonel Ed Il. Brown.
The correspondents of the Atlanta
branch will be Doremus, Daniel 4
Co., headed by Frank Doremus, an
other Georgian and also a native
Of Augusta.
Mr.. Brooks was accompanied to
Atlanta by J. William Souther, a
prominent young New York business
man, who is a member Of the firm
of Doremus, Daniel & Co. Though
born in the south, he has spent most
of his life in New York. He is a

BRITAIN OWES j. s.
OVER -FOUR BILLION

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The
treasury is as yet without advices
from Great Britain as to that gov
ernments intention to begin the pay
ment of interest upon it's debt to the
United States, officials said today.
However,, officials said, it was
probable that Great Britain was pre-
pairing to begin interest payments
under the tentative understanding by
which the interest on the debt was
deferred for a three-year ~o"'od end
ing next April. AS the British fiscal
year ends in March, officials eX-
planned, and that government is now
preparing it's budget for the coming
year, arrangements may have been
made to begin the payment of inter-
est next spring.
The British debt now stands at APP
proximately $4,166,000, 900 Of princi-
pal upon which interest is payable
at per cent annually. The annual
interest amounts to about $200,000,-
900, which would be approximately
equivalent to about 5O,000,000
pounds, figured at an exchange rate
of about 81, the pound now being
quoted at 1894. There is, however,
accumulated interest which would
amount to about $6O0,0O0,000 on No
vember Is, which would have to be
taken into consideration by the
| British.
Sir Robert made this announce
ment in the course of statement
on the budget prospects. He added
with emphasis:
81 hope this remark about the
debt we owe America will not be
! made the occasion for any discus
sion of the inter-allied Indebtedness
1t does not conduct to the friendR-
ness of the feeling between America
and ourselves to discuss that mat.

today warned against asking for
or expecting the impossible from the
parley. The delegates. however. can
approach their labor in a spirit of
confidence and high hope, he said.
"It is more than four years since
[ left this we'll remembered scene
and paid farewell to my many friends
at Washington. 1t was a most crit
ical stage in the great war and not
withstanding that there was nothing
more to be feared from the enemy's
battleships, the submarine campaign,
though the intensity had somewhat
diminished, was still most formid-
able.
"In the west and in the east, the
victory by land hung in the balance.
America, from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, animated by a single spirit
was concentrating her vast resources
and preparing to throw her whole
strength into the world struggle. we
all know the result. 1t came more
completely and more quickly than
most of us had dared to hope, ana
exactly three years ago the greatest
of victories concluded the greatest
of wars.
Il little thought when l took
leave on this platform of those from
whom 1 had received such endless
kindness that 1 should again be call
ed upon to revisit it as the repre-
sentative of Great Britain: still less
did I think that three years after
the armistice was signed our whole
thoughts would still be directed to-
ward completing the work of peace.
But so it is. Nothing could less re-
semble the work that had been done
in 1917 than the work in which we
are all concerned in 1921. Yet they
are not only intimately connected
but they form part of the same great
international endeavor; and he would
be a rash prophet who would say
that the victories Of peace are easier
of attainment than the victories of
war.
But surely we may approach
these new labors in a spirit Of con-
fidence and high hope. We must
not indeed either ask for or expect
the impossible, although what is
within our reach is worth our ut
most efforts; and I canont doubt that
under the wise guidance Of your
president we shall be fortunate
enough to attain it. Most happy
was the inspiration which moved
him to summon this conference. l
am convinced that all those who are
going to meet here in council, and
the governments whom they repre-
sent, are resolved to the best Of
their ability to operate with him in
making it a success.
This is the worlds desire, 1t will
not fail of accomplishment"

Syrup y Cents
Gallon In Moultrie

MOULTRGE. Ga, Nov. 10.-Syrup
is selling on the Moultrie market
for twenty-five cents a gallon in
barrels, as low point as it has
touched within the memory of the
present generation. The better
grades are selling for twenty-five
cents a gallon. Syrup in bottles and
cans bring more. The cane crop
this year was nearly ruined by the
dry weather, but the carry-over from
last years crop is said to have
been enormous. The acreage given
to the crop this year was also much
larger than it was in 1920, and the
total production of syrup will al
most equal last years.
Many farmers declare that they
will not market their syrup because
of the low prices prevailing for it,
but will use it for feed mixing it
with other products.

In fulfillment of Thine ancient

These things we ask OF ines
