first bloodshed growing out OF the at

Mingo mine field as a protest against

road running between Blair and Shsr-
Pies in Logan county. when miners
guarding the road opened fire on

twelve troopers who were moving along
the road between Blair and Sharpes.

Beech Creek, in the outskirts of Shar-

several days and did not know the

AS soon as the troopers we're sighted

This was followed by a volley OF shots
from the surrounding mountains, which
fell into the roadway, but did not MT

Paris, Aug. 2s.
Germany will pay France much Of
her reparations debt in goods instead
of gold il there is ratification of the
accord reached yesterday between DR..
Walter Rathenau, German Minister of
reconstruction, and Louis Loucheur,
French Minister for the Devastated
Regions. No bigger step than this has
been taken in the whole reparations
discussion.
All the practical men here realize
that its effects are twofold. First,
they will help France greatly TO expe-
dite the economic restoration of her
devastated regions, which is tagging
woefully because OF the impossiblity
of French industry TO supply the
needed materials or the Government
to purchase them at the present ex-
change values, and, second, Germany
Is relieved of the burden OF payments
in specie, which enables her TO take
advantage of the superior purchasing
power of her own paper marks in Ger
many in the discharge of her exterior
obligations. The value of the delivered
goods she will be credited with by
France will exceed that of the marks
wherewith she will reimburse her own
manufacturers.
The New York herald., 1921-08-29
Points OF the Agreement.

The main points OF the agreement a,
published to-day are:
!. Germany agrees by 1925 on
demand to furnish France with ma
terias for reconstruction up to the
value OF 7.oo0,O0o.0o0 marks gold.
which. as the Temps says, must
represent colossal effort by Ger
many. as in to-day's exchange the
sum represents 10000. 100000 marks
Of goods.
?. For these materials France will
credit her with 1000, COO, 900 marks
annually on the reparatlon account
II the deliveries reach this sum. If
France demands the maximum Ger
nany's payment IN goods would ex-
ceed Frances proportion Of the
reparations payments for this period.
IN which event France agrees 10 re-
imburse Germany for the balance in
four instalments at per cent in
terest.
2. The materials delivered can be
used only IN the devastated regions.
which arc 70 be free 10 choose between
French and German supply, thereby
bringing French industry ii direct
competition with Germany IN re-
building France. The very terms or
the agreement show that II Is pred-
Gated on the theory that German
prices and deliveries will be superior
to what Frances firms can offer
4. Tho prices will be fixed by a
commission consisting OF one Ger
man. orc Frenchman and one neu-
tral.

rcctly with German firms by French
contractors. but Instead OF paying
