Washington, Jan. 26s--Proepects OF

In both japanese and Chinese quar-.

that the Presidents move would re-

troublesome OF conference questions.

While decision was awaited, the
conference virtually suspended It's 9TH
er activities, a proposed meeting OF
the Far Eastern committee being
postponed until tomorrow because
there was nothing 10 discuss pending
Shantung settlement.
Mr.. Harding's compromise proposal
which he urged Minister SEE, OF the
Chinese delegation. to accept at a
White House conference yesterday, has
been cabled TO Peking and 1t was said
in Chinese circles that reply might
be received before night.
Acceptance by the Japanese dele
gates OF the renewed offer OF good
offices" by Secretary Hughes and
Arthur ]. Balfour, hitherto declined
was understood to have opened the
way for the Presidents move to obtain
Chinese acceptance of the compromise
plan sponsored by those officials. While
there was said 10 have been no formal
pledge OF approval by Japan, her ac-
ceptance was regarded as a foregone
conclusion. Under the proposal Japan
would abandon her proposition for a
loan to China, the latter purchasing
the railroad with notes payable at op-
ton five to is year period.
China's concession would be with
drawal of her opposition to the reten-
ton Of a Japanese traffic manager
and chief accountant during the period
Of payment.
Agreement on policy as to develop
ment OF Chinese wireless facilities still
remained to be reached by the Far
Eastern committee.
AS the negotiations have been
drawing to a close the eyes of the
delegates have turned more frequent
ly to the simmering feud over Kiao-
chow. and it is privately admitted
that 1t is not by accident the big is
sues of the conference stand halted

tung IS settled. most OF the commit
ments partially entered INTO here must

BONUS BILL MOVEMENT.
Effort Under Way to Have the
Chamber of Commerce In
dorse Measure.

The annual stockholders meeting OF
the Chamber of Commerce, to be held
in the du Barry room of the Hotel du
Pont this evening, gives no promise OF
any unusual contest for directors. The
various sections have apparently de-
cided upon their choice of candidates,

OF repetition OF last years election.
The meeting is scheduled to open at

sacted. DIR. William Il. Ellis will ad-
dress the members on his observations
at the Disarmament Conference.
1t Is expected that the directors
chosen tonight will meet one week
from today and select a new presi-
dent and the other officers OF the or

This warning to present-day drink

have tested the liquor seized In raids

official. 1t was further pointed out
that medicated alcohol. which Is per-
mitted to be sold by the government.
Is being redistilled and used for the
manufacture OF whisky. However. the
poison remains IN II. the officials cay.
As result of the analysis of the
liquor seized in this state during the
past three months. every sample Is
said TO have contained certain per-

One Of the greatest dangers is that

The Senator will Seave an efficient
corps of workers in his office here who
will look after the increasing volume
Of business. While the Senator is re-
ported in good health, II Is the view
of those interested in him here that
his contemplated trip to Florida is
to be taken upon the advice OF his
physician. who obviously has conclud-
ed that the Washington climate at this
season of the year Is not conducive to
the best results for person who is
not robust.
II is probable that nothing will be
done about the Federal patronage for

him away from Washington for an
indefinite time.
IL any agreement has been reached

Ball. 1t has not yet been revealed, and
II is understood they are standing
firmly and resolutely where they both
have long stood on collector of inter
nal revenue. Ball being for Peeney and
du Pont being against him. II they

at all probable President Harding will
undertake to settle the difference be-
tween the two Delaware Senators, as
both Of them are friendly TO him, and
he would not care TO offend either of
them by making an appointment over
the protest of either.
Ball Forces the Issue.
The friends of Senator Ball declare
the senior Senator from Delaware has
made the appointment of collector OF
internal revenue of Delaware a clear
cut issue between himself and Senator
du Pont, and is not only pledged to
Peeney and his friends beyond recall
but has so obligated himself in the
matter that it would be fatal TO his
political future for him to yield In
this remarkable contest to those fac
tional opponents who would retire
him from the public service. 1t has
been said persons interested hold to
the view that Senator Ball must
necessarily win this fight or confess
that his political enemies In Delaware
have the power 10 encompass his de-
feat when he again offers for election
TO the Senate.
In the meantime, while Senator du
