ALLIES AGAIN REQUEST J. 5.
 TO TAKE HAND
 IN PEACE.PACT
Request formally Presented by British, French and
 Italian Representatives
NOT TO OFFICIALLY ACT
American Observers However Will Be on Hand to Guard
 Over U. 5. Interests

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S. - Another request that the United States active ly participate with the allied govern ments in the settlement of European difficulties, this time in voting the establishment of peace between Fur key and the allies and the status of the Dardanelles and Bosphorus straits was received today by the Washington government.
 It's informal presentation by Sir Auckland Geddes, the British ambas- sador, to Count de Chambrun. acting for France in the absence of Ambassa- dor Jusserand, and Charge Rossi. who appeared for Senator Ricci. Italian ambassador. was followed by an auth oritative statement from the state de- partment that this government yester- day had instrutced its ambassadors in London, Paris, and Rome to inform those governments that it could not officially participate in the Near East conference at Lausanne. Switzerland.
 At the same time, it was pointed out that there were important inter- ests in the Near East in which this government was interested and treat men of these by the Lausanne confer ence would eb observed by American representatives. Regarding the deci- sion not to be represented through appointed delegates, it was said the United States had never been at war with Turkey and therefore did not be- lieve it could appropriately take part in farming treaty of peace with that nation in association with the allied conferees.
 The call of the British. French and Italian diplomats at the state depart ment was made with every formality and was brief, lasting exactly three minutes.
 In the event that this government follows precedents established at the San Reno. Genoa and The Hague con ferences, the diplomatic representa- tives in the country where the forth coming conference is to be held. will be chosen. Joseph Grew is the Amer ican minister at Geneva.
 It also is likely that Rear Admiral Mark l.. Bristol. American high com mander at Constantinople. will he an- other of the observers. His intimate acquaintance with Turkey and the Balkans. gained during long service their in the double capacity of high commissioner and commander of naval forces in Turkish waters. has won for him the highest esteem of Washington officials and respect of the foreign representatives in Constantinople.

Hugh Miller, Veteran Driver, Doubtful of Any Records
 Being Established
RACING CAR DAMAGED
Light Touring Car Crashes Into Racer at End of Tow
 Line Near St. David

BISBEE, AriZ., Oct. 2S.-Hugh Mil Ter, veteran Arizona road race cham pion, said tonight, after going over the greater part of the Douglas-Phoe- nix race course, that he doubted if the winning car would average 50 miles an hour. Other drivers who passed through here today and this evening on their way to Douglas were more optimistic, several predicting the win ner would average close to 55 miles
 Miller said that he and his mechan- ician, c. E. Orr, encountered moder- ate rains at several points on the course and snow and sleet between Tombstone and Bisbee this afternoon. Unless tomorrow and Monday were clear and warm, said Miller, he be- lieved the course Monday would be in such condition that drivers would have to exercise extreme caution on the dirt stretches. Between Florence and Tucson. said Miller, water was running down the road in many places Miller said the most dangerous part of the course was west of Benson. where the road was slippery as the re suit Of rains last night and today.
 Local race followers were tonight speculating on the probability of snow falling tonight and tomorrow night on the Divide" between Risbee and Tombstone. The road over the "Di- vide" constitutes the most dangerous part of the course, five-mile noun tain grade with scores of dangerous dips and turns. About one mile of the grade usually freezes after every snow storm, and a sheer drop of 200 feet on one side makes motoring at more than a snail's pace over this stretch hazardous. Late tonight the weather was clearing and warmer tempera- lures than this afternoon prevailed.
 Miller, who has won first place in two Fl Paso-Phoenix races, remained in Bisbee tonight and will go to Doug las tomorrow.
 One Of the entries of Watson Broth CTS. of Phoenix, a Jewett car, was damaged last night near St. David m a collision with a light touring car. A. J. Busby. driver of the touring car was slightly injured by pieces of glass

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct 2S- (By the Associated Pressl Prosecutor Ostrander, and Deputy Sheriffs of Lake county tonight announced they are going to question young woman living near the woods where the nut. Hated body of Mrs. Hazel Burns was found late Wednesday buried in shal low graves, regarding a report ,that the woman had heard screams from the direction of the woods early Wed nesday morning. A neighbor who gave girl had told of being awakened by shrieks of terror.
 Cleveland detectives at the same time announced they have begun a search for the diary Of Mrs. Burns, re- ported to contain passages which would give a clue to the motive for the crime. Lake county authorities were also searching the scene of the murder for a shovel and gun which are thought to have been used in the murder
 Search also is being made by Lake county authorities for $2700, which Burns claims he hid in his Cleveland home and which was not found in g search by authorities and for dia monds which Mrs. Burns was said tC have worn. Authorities now incline to the belief that possibly Mrs. Burns might have had the money and dia monds in her possession Wednesday and may have been the victim of high waymen.
 Authorities have virtually abandon ed hope of securing confession from Henry J. Burns, husband of the mur dered woman who is held in the Gainesville jail charged with the slay ing. The prisoner is a mental wrecl after B hours of almost continua questioning He was sent back to hi: cell today because authorities feared that further questioning might unbal ance his mind Burns steadfastl, maintained his innocence of the crime i Authorities announce they will no question Burns further as they do no i wish to prosecute him.

Racing Car Approaching at High Rate of Speed Hits
 Machine on Roadside

Howard Dillman, of Phoenix, was instantly killed about 3:30 yesterday afternoon when his racing car. a Stutz special, was wrecked about two and one-half miles west of Benson. Joe Diaz, Dillman's mechanician, sus- tained a deep cut in his head and minor cuts and bruises. His injuries. according to Dr. J. w. Morrison, of Benson, were not serious. and Diaz planned to return to Phoenix last night.
 Dillman and DiaZ were on thelr way to Douglas where they were to draw places today for the Douglas Phoenix road race tomorrow. Their car had been entered in the race by the Texas Realty Company, of Phoe- nix.
 Dario Martinez. owner of a cattle ranch about 15 miles from Benson, was a witness of the accident. Mar tinez had stopped his Dodge touring car on one side of the road to pour water into the radiator. The big Stutz approached at a high rate of SDttu WH1n to pass Martinez car, the Stutz side swiped the touring car, got out or the drivers control and literally plunged from the road. overturning several times DiaZ was thrown clear of the car. Dillman had no chance to get from behind the steer ing wheel. His body was terribly crushed.
 Diaz, dazed and bleeding. was hur- ried to benson and taken to Doctor Morrison's office. He said last night that he remembered the Stutz ap- preaching and starting to pass an other car, but nothing more.
 The big Stutz, according to Deputy Sheriff Vein, who hurried from Ben son to the scene of the accident, was almost completely demolished.

DENY MOTION IN
 ST|LLMAN CASE
Proceedings Are Instituted by Banker to Violate Order
 Denied by Court

POUGHKEEPSIE. N. Y., Oct. 2S. Supreme court Justice A. H. F. Seeger, in denying today a motion of James A. Stillman, New York banker, to violate the order of con firmation made by Supreme Court Justice Morschauser, on the referees s report in favor of Mrs. Stillman and her son Guy, offered to the banker counsel the first opportunity to take the case to the appellate division.
 A motion entered by counsel for MT. Stillman, questioning the juris' diction of Justice Morschauser was denied and the decision rendered on the merits of the case alone, which gives specific basis Tor an appeal which has, heretofore been lacking.
 It was pointed out by w. J. Rand counsel for MT. tSillman that de nial of the motion simply on the ground of whether Justice Tomp kins, at Nyack, New York. or Jus tice Morschauser at White Plains held priority on motions before theiI courts would lead to an appeal or this single point and in the event of a favorable decision for MT. Still man would bring the entire case after a long legal battle, back tc its present status.
