Guilty of Murders;
Police Investigating

st. Louis. Sept 22.-Inquiry into
the murder Of three men whose mutil-
ated bodies were found near the right
Of way of the Missouri Pacific railroad
Wednesday, and at Dupo, ILL.,, Thursday
failed to reveal any possible identified
tions or definite clues as to the slay-
ers. A dispatch from Bigelow, Ark,
stated that one body is believed to be
that of Caleb Wilson, age 10, who left
that place a few days ago to join his
mother at New Washington, Ohio.
A clue which East st. Louis author
tiles believe supports the supposition
that all three men were killed by the
same man was the attack Wednesday
night upon Jacob Wyers, Of Chicago,
81, alleged to have been made by a
crazed negro. Wyers was enroute to
Nokomis in a box car when the negro
joined him, and after asking Wyers for
food, attacked him. Wyers is now in a
Granite City hospital.

States Senator James w. Wadsworth,
Jr., in his keynote speech as temporary
chairman Of the New York Republican

no finer stroke of diplomacy adorns
the annals of our state department"
than the new treaty with Germany.
Had the Harding administration
done nothing else," he added, Its
achievement in thus untangling and
setting Alright our foreign relations
would justly entitle it to fame"
And when one realizes how prompt
ly and simply it was DONE he con-
tinued. ''one cannot help smiling at
the dismal prophesies of those who be-
ieved or pretended to believe that the
only way was the League of Nations
way"
The senator said all honor was due
President Harding for conceiving the
great and beneficient step" of the
coming conference on disarmament and
far eastern questions.
He eulogized the president saying
''the country knows, the civilized world
knows, that great figure has appear
ed among men--Warren G. Harding"

Claims America Should
Stay Out of European
Politics and Problems.
Several Senators Said
to Have Same Views
AS Idaho Member.

Washington, Sept. 22-Opposition
to the peace treaties negotiated re-
Gently by the administration with Ger
many, Austria and Hungary developed
Thursday when the senate foreign
relations committee began considera-
ton of the pacts transmitted Wednes-
day by President Harding.
Senator Borah, Republican, Idaho,
leader of the ''irreconcilables" in the
fight against the treaty of Versailles,
explained the basis of his opposition
to ratification of the new treaties to
the committee which considered only
the German pact and adjourned until
Friday without taking any action.
Senator Borah's objections to the
new peace arrangement, it was said,
were based primarily on the accept
ance in the new acts of provisions of
the treaty of Versailles. The effect,
it was understood Senator Borah con-
tended. was to take America through
the back instead of the front door,"
into European entanglements.
Reports from the committees ex-
ecutive session were that Senator
Borah contended the ratification of
the new treaties would entail a moral
not legal obligation to retain Amer
lean troops in Germany. Another ma
jor point of his opposition was said
to revolve around American represen-
tation on the reparations committee.
of such an American
commissioner he was said to have
would follow necessarily, and
also American representation in Eu-
ropean financial affairs, entailing in
terest in Europe's political problems
for at least 40 years-the period fixed
for payment of the German indemnity.
The points brought out by Senator
Borah were said to have been re-
ceived with particular interest by
Senators Johnson, Republican, Cali
fornia; Brandegee. Republican. Connee-
ticut. and Shields, Democrat. Tenn
essee. and other senate ''irreconcil-
ables."
