HEAD MINISTRY,
Greek Cabinet Resigns Because Of
Friction Over London Con-.
ference.

Athens, Feb. 5-Conferences with
political leaders were held today
by King Constantine in an effort to
solve the ministerial crisis which
eliminated last night in the resig-
nation of the Rhallis cabinet. It
was believed that M. Gounaris, min.
lister of war, or NJ. Kalogeropoulos.
minister of finance, would be asked
to head the new ministry.
Premier Rhallis had insisted that
he should head the Greek delegation,
which will attend the near east con-
ference to be held in London be-
ginning on Feb. 21. NJ. Gounaris,
on the other hand, claimed the hon.
or of being the Greek spokesman,
citing his influence in parliament
and the adherence Of the Greek
press as his qualifications. The
friction became so marked that It
became known early yesterday that
M. Rhallis had decided 10 hand his
resignation to the king.

MAUD VIRGO'S
MOTHER PLACED
BODY IN TRUNK
Death Due to Chloro-
form, Says Mrs.
Tabor.

Lawton, Mich, Feb. 5.-Mrs. Sar-
ali !. Tabor, accused of the murder
Of her daughter, Maud Tabor Virgo,
whose body was found in a trunk
at her Lawton home in December,
1919, today confessed that she
placed the body in the trunk. Her
daughter, she said, died Of an over
dose Of chloroform, self-adminis-
tered Mrs. Tabor said she had left
the house for few moments, and
upon returning found Maud dead
with chloroform spilled over the
bed.
Mrs. Tabor exonerated Joseph
Virgo Of South Bend, husband Of
Maud, from guilt in the actual
death of her daughter, but said that
Virgo was morally guilty because
of his harsh treatment Of Maud
following their marriage" This,
she said. was responsible for
Maud's despondency and also for
the illness which led to the use ol
chloroform.

ACT OF CHICAGO
BOARD or TRADE
TO BE IGNORED
Argentine Passes Up
Refusal of Quo
tafions.

Buenos Aires, Feb. 5.-Action by
the Chicago Board Of Trade in dts
continuing the posting Of Argen-
tine grain quotations will be ignor-
ed by the Bolsa de Commercio of
this city, under . decision reached
BY the directors Of the grain fu-
lures market here today. A meet
ing Of the directors was held to
consider the situation and to de-
eide whether the statement issued
on Feb. 2 by J. P. Griffin, president
Of the Chicago board. should be an
swered and whether measures of
reprisal would be adopted.
"The grounds given by the presi-
dent Of the Chicago Board of Trade
as the basis of his order," Bartolo
Bernhard, president of the future
market said today, "are unfounded,
and therefore they can not injure
US in any way"
Newspapers Of this city, however,
denounce the action Of the Chicago
board, La Nacion saying:
"The explosion of Mr.. Griffin was
a gratuitous insult to our COM
merce. The attempt to disregard
Argentine quotations is based on
malinformation, both of the Argen-
tine and world cereal market. Are
the imperative economic laws OF
supply and demand not known in
Chicago? By that law the level OF
values is spontaneously reestab-
lished by virtue of the liberty which
rules in transactions and which is
reflected without delay in markets
all over the world. The grain buy
ing markets of Europe are not 60
ing to be ruled exclusively by prices
in the United States markets, but
