Court Calls Case
Though Man is Dead

Spartanburg, April 21.-A rather
unusual case came up before the re-
corder here this morning. Ed Tobias
had ben convicted in recorders court
and sentenced to pay $1OO or to serve
80 days. Upon the defendant appeal
ing he was released upon 5000 bond,
double the amount of the fine. The
time for the appeal expired this morn
ing and the case was called.
When the case was called, A. E.
Hill, counsel for the defendant, said
that he did not have the man in court,
but that two policemen might be sent
for him. He said that it would be
necessary to send two policemen for
him. When he gave the address it
was the cemetery. The man had been
dead two weeks.
Demand was made of ]. H. Hill,
chief of police, for return of the
bond, but he refused to return it,
claiming that the man had not been
brought to court as required by the
bond.
The question arises whether the
city can be made to return the bond
when the defendant dies pending an
appeal, or if the appeal was abandon
ed. Attorneys present at court claim
ed that the supreme court had ruled
in case of this kind that the bond
should be returned. Until he gets
further orders Chief Hill will not turn
over the bond.

RUSSO GERMAN TREATY ELIMINATED:
CONFERENCE AT GENOA GOES FORWARD

Genoa, April 2l-The economic
conference today made a great stride
forward. The elimination of the Rus
so-Germban treaty from the contro-
versy and Soviet Russia's personal
acceptance of the allied conditions
concerning foreign debts and confs.
Gated property of foreigners produced
a Gerry definite hope that the greatest
congress European steesmen ever
held will accomplish something real
and tangible for the reconstruction
of Europe, including Russia.
The demands of the powers which
have been accepted include the waiv-
ing by Russia of her counter claims,
based on military intervention; rec
ognitlon of war debts to the govern.
mentS with the understanding that
they will be considerably scaled down;
obligations due to foreign nationals
and the right of foreigners to have
contiscated property returned to them
or to be given proper compensation
for it.
The conciiatory nature of the an
Swcr of tn. Soviet government con-
tributcd To the optimism that the
Bolshevik earnestly seek an arrange
ment with the powers by which Soviet
Russia will be permitted to enter into
the comfy of nations. The clear
and brief demands of the allies, which
afford a roprratn haS;S for j;Scnc
sion, are compared here by the OBJ
servers to the concrete American pro-
posal for naval limitations which was
introduced at the outset of the Wash
ington conference and which gave the
delegates to the Washington gather
ing an opportunity to concentrate
discussion on something tangible and
constructive.
The insistence Of the Soviet ex-
pertS on foreign financial aid, as
necessary condition to Russian sal
walton, served to turn all eyes to-
ward the United States, for it seems
to be recognized that effective succor
for Russia is impossible without the
participation of American capital.
This conviction is so profound that
the allied representatives are limiting

HUNDREDS DEAD
FROM EXPLOSION

Monastir, Jugo-Slavia, April 81
(By the Associated Press) Salvage
work in the section of the city laid
waste by Tuesdays explosion is be-
ing carried on with the greatest diff
ficulty. Lack of water is hampering
the task of putting out the numerous
fires, while gas fumes are hindering
the soldiers and gendarmes who are
searching for victims. Two hundred
bodies have been recovered and there
is little likelihood that any more per-
sons will be rescued alive as the cries
of the wounded among the wreckage
which were heard throughout yester-
day have died out altogether.
1t is still impossible to estimate the
total number of persons killed but
several hundred were wounded, many
of them hopelessly. Great numbers
of Them have been removed to the
American hospital founded by DR..
Regina Flood Keys of Buffalo, N. Y,
which, somewhat removed from the
scene of the explosion, escaped with
slight damage.
Relief workers from the American
Woman's hospital at Veles arrived
last night bringing cots, blankets
and medicines. H. H. Reeder, Jr., of
New York City, acting director of the
American relief commission in Bel
grade, is hurrying to Monastir with
doctors, nurses and medicines. He
will take charge of the relief work.
Most of the houses of the city,
fiimsy affairs of wood and terra Gotta,
collapsed under the terrific impact of
the explosions, burying their occu .
pants in mass of debris. The ruined
adea covers may square blocks. The
only structures which resisted the ex-
plosions were Turkish minarets which
are built of solid masonry. The Am
erican missionary school, some dis
tance from the catastrophe, is re-
ported to have escaped damage, but
the students scattered, panic strick-
en-. thinking an earthquake had visit
ed the city.
King Alexander has decreed a day
of mourning throughout Jugo-Slayia.

.perts make strict Investigation TO
