France Deaf
To German
Plea for Aid

ing for Europe to come to some agree
ment.
"On the day the European Allies
cancel their debts with one another
and this has allowed them to draw up
a reasonable plan for the mobilization
of the German debt the United States
will find that Europe has become SEN
sible again and that investments there
are paying proposition. On that day
large reparation loan will be possible.
Then the United States will see that
they have more to gain by helping
Europe than by insisting upon pay
ment without pity; hence the conclu-
sion is that which must be discussed
is not the delay nor the moratorium
but the cancellation Of inter-AIlied
debts"
The Specific Demand
After the conference with the Ger
man emissaries M. Dubois visited Pre-
mier Poincare at the Quai d'Orsay.
Officials pleaded no knowledge of what
passed at the conferences, but from
other sources it was learned that the
Germans formally demanded relief
from the existing schedule Of pay
rnents after explaining the dire straits
in which the republican government
finds itself.
1t is believed that the Germans are
not empowered to demand specific
moratorium without first sounding the
members of the Reparation Commits
sion by unofficial talks. Once some
knowledge of what measure Of relief is
likely to have the support of the ma
jority of the members Of the commits
sion is obtained, it is believed spe-
cifc proposal will be made.
One demand made by the German
emissaries to-day concerned the cut
ting down of coal deliveries which
Germany pledged at the Spa conference
to make to France and Belgium. 1t
was not anticipated, however, that the
Germans would ask for relief from the
July payment of 50,000,O00 gold marks,
nor possibly the remaining payments
due this year, but that they would pro-
pose relief from the gold payments due
in 1923 and 1924, agreeing, however, to
augment deliveries in kind.
On this basis it was believed to-day
that there was considerable likelihood
of serious consideration of the German
by the Reparation Commits
sion. The position of the French gov

Fifth District Democrat Club
 Members Clash

Because of the fact that certain people were not being patronized by the administration, faction of the Fifth district Democratic club gave evidence of their dissatisfa ction at a meeting held in the club rooms last night. The mef2bers of the com n1ittee appointed to obtain patronage were under fire for their acts, and were constantly asking for the floor to make denials to some of the allega- tions.
 The result of the meeting was that a resolution was passed in favor of aband oning the club. In the event that the resolution passed last night it was learned this morning that an other club would be formed by those members who were not in league with the dissatisfied faction.
 The main reason for the break in the club is that the administration have given jobs t5 Democrats who were Democrats in name only during the last eight years. The patronage committee of the club is composed of the following members: Michael H. Small of the Town Committed: William McComb, superintendent If the Welfare building; Joseph Mon graiu, W. H. Keefe, Jr., president of the club and Alderman Veness, pres ident of the Conrmon Council

To Protect
 Foreigners
Train Unable to Proceed With Speed Because of C on g e S ton of China's Troops.

Picking, May 12-(By the A. P.)-One hundred American soldiers have been dispatched to Tongshan, a few miles north east of TienTsin, to maintain communication and to protect foreigners in the vicinity of the Kaiping coal mines.
 Forces Congested.
 A train flying flags left Tien Tstn for Chinwangtao, on the coast of the Gulf of Chih-Li, but was unable to proceed on account of the congestion of Chinese forces.
 The troops of General Wu Pei Flu who defeated the Manchurian forces of General Chang Tso-Lin last week are now entrenched at Tongshan. General Chang has his headquarters at Lwanchow with 45, 900 Manchurian n troops.
 The opinion of military attaches here is divided as to whether the Man churian leader intends additional aggression against his victorious ad- versary or whether he is merely striv- ing to carry out orderly retreat for the moral effect that might be pro- duced when his troops arrive at Muk- den.

Pretty Wife Gets Divorce From Her
 Immoral Husband

A strange story of a double deser- ton; an unnatural husband who sub- jected his young and beautiful wife to immoral practices, but who felt sufficient attachment for a small babe, to disappear and take the baby with him, was unwound in Superior court this morning when Emily Darling 553 Ha1lett street, appeared and ob- tained a decree of divorce.
 Married to Irving Chester Darling, whom she had known since school days in Bridgeport. February 6, 1916, and deserted July IS, 1918, testimony introduced by Attorney George F. Mara for the plaintiff, through John Marshaland, also of this city, disclos- ed the startling fact that Marshland's s wife, a sister of Darling. with Darling and his entire family, had disappear ed when he returned from govern ment service May 13, 1919.
 Always living, since marriage with her husbands people. subjected to immoral practices with regularity, and roughly treated when she offered objections the young girl, she was only IT when she was married, was finally given 24 hours to leave her father-in-law's home. and the father in-law promised to help her husband throw her out if she didn't leave.
 The last word received was from Providence in 1918, when what turn ed out upon investigation to be fake reports of the husbands death were published in Providence and Bridge port papers.
 Mrs. Darling is now working for her support at the General Electric company, to secure funds to prosecute the search for her husband, that she may establish a court of Jurisdiction and start a 1eega1 battle for the cus- tody of her child. She was granted a divorce upon the grounds of cruelty. Her mother, Mrs. Helen Broadbent. and a friend, Mrs Edith Smith, Strat- ford, were witnesses. Judge Newell Jennings heard the case.

 The first transaction in Lackawanna comprised four thousand shares at 73 to "A, followed by another sale of 300 shares at 74A and 100 shares at 75, making an extreme overnight advance of 9A points from it's maximum fig ure the stock soon reacted two points on profit taking.
