tions put to her by the grand

tigation of the shooting OF Clar-
ence Peters by her husband May
Is.
Although Mr.. Weeks declined to
disclose what had taken place at
the examination it was UNDER
stood that Mrs. Ward had been
questioned concerning the card
party which was alleged to have
been held in her home the night
of the shooting,
Earlier in the day, it was re-
ported that she had declined to
answer questions as to what time
her husband returned that night
and how he looked. At con-
ference in his chambers. Justice
Morschauser was understood to
have ruled that while she might
plead privilege II she were asked
questions concerning communca-
tions passing between her and Mr..
Ward, as man and wife, she
would have to reply to queries
concerning conversations, at which
a third person was present.
Il am very much pleased but
cannot say what I have accom-
plished,' said Mr.. Weeks, at the
close of the session.
Adjournment was taken until
Thursday.
1t was learned from other
sources, however, that the county
authorities regarded the courts
ruling as a material aid to the IN
vestigation, as II would permit
questioning of Mrs. Ward concern
ing events preceding the shooting.
Besides Mrs. Ward. seven wit
nesses were heard today. They
included two other members of
the Ward household-Lulu Barrows
a nurse, and Amy Mild, the cook
but nothing could be ascertainod

BOBBY BARRETT
BEFORE 10000
Challenger for the Light

Leonard Knocks Out Op-
ponent in Sixth Round.

Philadelphia. Pa. June 6.-Lew
Tender, of Philadelphia, tonight
knocked out Bobby Barrett. of Clif--
ton Heights, Pa, i'm the sixth round
of their scheduled eight-round bout
at the National league baseball PARK
in the presence of more than 2O,OoO
spectators, one of the biggest
crowds that ever saw u boxing
match in Philadelphia. The knock
out came toward the close of the
sixth round.
1t was ripping left hand swing
that caught Barrett full on the
solar plexus. He dropped to the
mat, writhing with pain, and at the
count Of ten, when the bell rang
his seconds jumped into the ring TO
revive him. Many persons in the
crowd believed the blow was low
but Referee Herman Taylor de-
clared it was not. In order to keep
the crowd out of the ring, where
Barrett was being given a hasty
medical examination, GORDON OF
police was thrown around the pros
trate boxer. After the police had
restored order Barrett was assisted
Ia his dressing room. He was not
badly hurt. -, .a
From the beginning until the
finishing blow Tender showed that
he was the master. Although both
boxers were said to have weighed IN
at 1879 ringside, Barrett appeared
to be lighter and was more imma-
ture than his opponent.
Barrett repeatedly attempted TO
cot Z in a knockout with wild lell
swings, but Tender was too clever.
He hit Tender a few times, but the
blows, although seeming to nave
great power, had no effect.
At no stage Of the battle did Bar
rett put up an adequate defense
against Tenders rain of blows
On the other hand, Tenders de-
tense was almost perfect.

Of Rotary clubs got off to a good
start here today when Interna-

Pekin, June (by the Associated

refuse to resign and thus clear the
way for Wu Pei-Fu's plan to re-
unite China under one government,

Pei-Fu, in his role of director,

i, ST. is Belief,

Washington, June 6--Rearrange
ment OF the present scheme OF
German reparations is to be ex-
pected If tangible results are
achieved, by the conference Of in
ternational bankers now discussing
a loan to Germany at The Hague,
in the opinion today of high gov
ernment officials.
Officials in close touch with fl
nancial developments in this
country and abroad expressed the
view, which was coincided in by
Secretary Mellon, that a German
bond issue could not be floated in
the United States. which would be
looked to for most of the loan, un-
less attractive security is offered
for the investment of American
money in German obligations.
Money Market Conditions.
Laying aside political considera-
tions involved in a possible rear
'rangement of reparations payment
and basing their conclusions upon
money market conditions in this
country, officials asserted that un-
less bonds issued under the terms
OF an international loan to Ger
many were TO have priority in
Germany as security in preference
to the existing reparation bonds
very few of the new obligations
would be absorbed in the American
market. Under the present repair
ations arrangement. officials ex-
planned the A E and G. reparation
bonds for approximately 100, 0,000,-
600 gold marks have priority for
their payment in all German rev.
enue, but issues of the C bonds for
about half of the total has been
withheld by the reparations COM
mission until it can be determined
il Germany can meet the interest
upon the $4,000, 100000 of A and
B bonds. Under the latest ar
rangements, officials explained.
Germany is only required, after the
expiration OF the present morator-
ium To pay about $500, 100000 a
year OF WHICH StSo,0o0, GOO is to he
in cash and the remainder in kind.
Basis for Floating a Loan.
1t would appear then. according
to government economic experts
that about $1S0,000,OO0 or 5000
100000 which Germany might be
able to pay in interest yearly would
have to be the basis upon which
loan could be floated, or such part
of that amount as nigh be con-
verted from reparations to secur-
ity for loan, should it be decided
to permit a part, rather than all
of Germany's visible security TO be
used for obtaining an international
loan having priority over repara-
tions payments.
