WHIPS WIFE BEATER
 IN BALTIMORE JAIL
Sheriff Strikes Five Blows With Cat O-Ninc-TaiI, on Back of
 Convicted Negro.

Baltimore, Md, Sept. 9.-Wincing under the five stinging blows of a cat o-nine-tails whip, wielded by Sheriff Thomas F. McNulty, Cornelius Smith, a negro wife beater, was punished here yesterday in accordance with a sen tence imposed several weeks ago by Judge Duffy in the criminal court.
 The whipping, which took place in the main corridor of the city jail at $50 0 clock, was witnessed by about a dozen men, including deputy sher- ifs jail guards and newspaper men. This was the first time in nine years that the whipping post had been used at this jail.
 The sheriff, putting every ounce Of his weight in the blow, brought the leather throngs upon the bare back or the negro The sound of the contact could be heard in all parts of the cor ridor. In rapid succession the second third and fourth blows followed. Hesl- tating for an instant before the hnal blow the sheriff first steadled nlmsei[ and then grasping the butt Of the whip with both hands brought it down with great force. Large welts ap- peared on the back of the prisoner.
 As soon as Smith was released from his manacles he stepped from the plat form and, with head erect and a surly look on his face, walked to where ne had left his shirt. It was stated that none of the blows had broken the skln and that beyond a few welts smith would be none the worse in Ie" days. .
 1T put all my power in the olo"s' said Sheriff McNulty, ana sois wanted to make good Job or It. have no sympathy for wire Deaeels and think the whipping post is just the thing for brutes of that type would recommend a public whipping of wife beaters where citizens of the citv could witness the beating. The city hall plaza would make an loeai site for carrying out such project.

ACCUSES STANDARD OIL.
Laporte Company Says Price Cut
 Aims at Its Destruction.

La Porte, Ind, Sept. 9.-On the ground that the Standard Oil com pany of Indiana is violating a section of the Sherman Antitrust law by discriminating in prices, the Inde- pendent company has retained attor- neys of this city with a view to bring ing action.
 The Standard Oil company recently reduced the price of oil in Michigan City, La Porte, Walkertown and Ply mouth one cent per gallon. The In- dependent company contends it is an effort to force it into bankruptcy. This company does not retail, but does solely a wholesale business, and since the Standard Oil company con- trols tank gasoline prices, it is said to be impossible for the local concern to buy oil, sell it to the retailers and make any profit.

tContinued from First Page).

com mmercially and politically lie in the other continent and in a sense are common to those of the United states. Colombia, for example came into the league only because we though the United States would be member and would in sense be the leader and protector of all the states of North and South America. We see now that we were badly mis- taken and that the United States prob ably never will join the present league. This causes us to think. and naturally we all arc deeply interested in the outcome of the forthcoming Wash ington conference"

 Dr. Fridtjof Nansen ot Norway. pleaded for publicity and economy in the league. He declared it was impos- sible 10 restore normal economic con- ditions in the world until Russia was put or its feet again.
 Dr. Nansen appealed to the world through the assembly for 30,000,000 pounds which he said was required to buy 2,O00,0OO tons of wheat to save Russia from starvation. He declared Europe was menaced with the great est disaster in it's history.
 Aid For Russia.
 He introduced a resolution that the assembly refer the question of relief in Russia to a committee at the same time appealing to the various govern ments for immediate aid and deferring the question of guarantees Russia can offer for the sums loaned.
 Prince Dowleh of Persia, who spoke next, dwelt on the absence ot results and the abundance of talk ab>It dis He said all eyes, in con- sequence, were turned toward Wash fngton.
