that the local dry dock company has
been called upon to repair in YES

900. The vessel has been on the
local dry dock for little over a week,
and it is estimated that it will take
more than a month more to put her
back into condition.
The schooner had Just discharged
a cargo of molasses and was on her
way down the coast on the night OF
the collision. The night was moon
light and the crew of the schooner
could see the lights of Sandy Hook

TAKES OATH
Of JUSTICE
Former Senator Is Now
Member of Supreme
Court of u. S.

Washington, Oct. 2.-The supreme
court of the United States met at
noon Monday for it's October term,
with two of the nine seats upon the
bench vacant. One, however, quickly
was filled when Chief Justice Taft, as
the first proceeding in brief session,
administered the judicial oath to former
Senator George Sutherland of Utah as
the successor of John II. Clarke, Ohio,
who resigned. Justice Sutherland
was then conducted to the seat on the
extreme left of the chief justice. The
other chair, assigned to Associate Just
ice Pitney, will not, according to in
formation reaching his colleagues, be
occupied by him soon because of illness.
The court admitted to practice a
number of attorneys and then adjourned
for the day to proceed to the White
House to pay visit of respect to the
president.
The picture presented in court when
the judicial oath was administered to
Justice Sutherland was most impress
sive. Justice Sutherland, who had pre-
viously taken the ironclad or official
oath, entered the court room with the
other members, wearing his robes, but
took a position behind the screen at
the back of the bench, while the chief
justice announced that during the re-
cess Justice Clarke had resigned, his
resignation had been accepted and Just
ice Sutherland had been nominated as
his successor and confirmed by the
senate.
With the court, bar and audience
standing, Justice Sutherland then took
position at the side of the chief
justice and in firm, distinct voice,
audible throughout the room, repeated
after the chief justice clause by clause
the judicial oath, giving emphasis to its
solemn declarations. He was then well
coined to the court by the chief Justice
by a hearty handshake, and was ush-
cred to his chair at the extreme left
of the bench, where Justice McRay
nolds, who occupies the next seat, also
welcomed him with a hanashake.
The court. as is the custom, proceed
ed to the White House in the robes.
The president received the chief justice
and the associate Justices in the blue
room, greeting each with a cordial
handshake and subsequently chatting
with them. Attorney General Daugher-
ty and a large staff from the depart
ment of justice, including Solicitor Gen
eral Beck, occupied their accustomed
places at the desk in front of the bench
and also In the room was George r.
Christian, Jr., secretary to the presi-
dent, who was called to the court to
witness the induction into office of
Justice Sutherland.

Washington. Oct. 2. = Secretary
Hughes declared Monday night in a
cable message to DR.. James Canon, Jr..

ment of the American people under

The executive" Mr.. Hughes added,
has no authority TO 60 beyond this.

results you desire with respect TO the
inhabitants of that territory and to-
determine the problems which have
vexed Europe for generations

personal belief that christian Amer
lea win insist the government of the
United States cooperate and actively
protect Christians in Asia Minor, not

TURN HARDING
DOWN IN COAL
WAGE MEETING
Miners and Operators
Refuse to Name Men
Outside of Fuel Trade.
Government Wants List
of 20 Independent Per-
sons for Commission.

Cleveland, Oct. 2.-(By The Associ-
ated Press) ).-Developme late Mon
day night indicated that there was a
pronounced lack of harmony within
the ranks of bituminous coal ope-
rators, in session with miners here to
formulate plan for negotiating future
wage scales, when it was learned that
the operators in caucus Monday after
noon rejected a proposal of the federal
government that a panel of so names
of persons disassociated with the coal
industry be submitted to President
Harding for use in creation of a COM
mittee provided under the Bcrah-
Winslow law, recently passed by con-
gress.

Herbert Hoover, secretary of COM
of labor, addressed to Thomas K.
Maher, of Cleveland, temporary chair
man of the joint conference of ope-
rators and miners, asking the confer
ence to submit to the president a
panel of 20 names of persons dis
associated with the coal industry who
might be included in the federal fact
finding commission.
The telegram, copy of which also
was sent TO John l.. Lewis, president
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
fca, requested in the name of Presi-
dent Harding, that this panel be sub
mitted by the joint conference Tues
day.

committee of three to decline the in
vitation.
The telegram was not read at Mon
days joint conference, but it is under
stood it would be placed before the
Joint conference Tuesday morning.

caucus Monday night decided that they
would seek to prevent any arrange
ment being made at this time for the
continuance of such collective bar
gaining as had prevailed during the
past few years.

Washington, Oct. 2.-Charges that
certain representatives of the depart
ment of justice appropriated to their
own use large stocks of liquor seized
in the enforcement of prohibition laws
were made In a special report filed
Monday by the District of Columbia.
The report asserted that the liquor
was removed from the warehouse used
by the department for storage pur-
poses and was used by the officials
involved for their private consumption,
for distribution to personal friends and
as gifts to favored institutions. There
was no charge that any OF the liquor
was disposed of for financial gain.
Illegal Withdrawals covered in the re-
port were declared to have occurred be
tween July 20 and September IL, 1920.
The Jury did not name the individuals
who were involved but declared that
their conduct cannot be too severely
condemned"
May Take No Action
The department of justice official
indicated that no action was in pros
pect, since the offenses complained OF
were by former attaches of former
administration of the department.
William J. Burns, chief of the bureau
of investigation, said that large stocks
of liquor held in the custody of the
department had disappeared" between
these dates mentioned in the grand jury
report. Officials of the department
estimated that several hundred cases of
assorted liquors were removed Illegally
from the departments evidence cache:
The value was placed at upwards of
100000 by d. T. Wright, counsel for
Frank Bunch, one of the interested
owners. Mr.. Wright recently filed suit
against Frank Burke, former chief of
the departments bureau of investiga-
ton: p. J. Abern and Henry p. Alden,
employees of the department, charging
that they had unlawfully removed his
clients liquor from custody and con-
verted it to their own use.
Taken In "Bone Dry" Era
The liquor stocks covered in the
grand jury report were those taken
during the operation of the Reed bone
dry law, which prohibited sale of alco-
holic beverages within the district dur
ing the early months of the war and
during the period when purchases in

GRAVE RObb|NG AND
ARSON CHARGED IN
PLOT ON INSURANCE
Woman Arrested; Police Seek
Man Supposed to Have Been
Cremated.

St Louis, Oct. 2.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press. Fired Mueller, prose-
cutting attorney of st. Louis county,
late Monday issued warrants charging
grave robbery and arson against Harry
R. Bren and his wife, in connection
with the discovery that a body found
in Bren's garage at Oakville, Mo-,
which was destroyed by fire last Tues
day, was that of young woman, and
not Brenn, as it was decided originally.
The warrants were issued on the
strength of informations given to DIR.
Rolla Bracy, coroner of st. Louis
county, who announced that in his
opinion Mrs. Bren was withholding in
formation about the crimes with which
she and her husband are charged.
Mrs. Bren was taken into custody
last Wednesday by detectives, who de-
clared that the body, found in the gar
age ruins, was that of Miss Celeste
Schneider, which was stolen last Mon
day from its grave in Mount Hope
cemetery.
The police say that In their investi-
CATION it appears that Bren and his
wife intended to go to Germany, Mrs.
Bren's former home, after collecting
$4,000 life insurance which Bren car
ried.
No trace has been found of Bren,
who left home last Monday before the
fire. The body Of the young woman
was found in an automobile standing
in the fire debris. Mrs. Bren stead
fastly has maintained that she knows
nothing of the alleged plot which the
police accuse her husband of engineer
ing.
and deputy sheriffs has failed to change
her account of the garage fire and the
disappearance of her husband, who,
she said, perished in the fire.
