up and apparently deserted. Nearer
at hand, however, he saw other build
ings, and these drew his attention. He
heard the thrObblng pound Of a motor
at work, and as there was no power
line along here, the place evidently
had its own electrical plant. He
scrutinized the scene before him ap-
pralsingly.
There were two large buildings
here. One seemed to be large barn,
closed, the other was a long, low
shed which was too large to be
garage. The door of this was open,
and before the opening Gramont saw
three men standing in talk; he recOg-
nlzed none of them. Two Of the talk
ers were clad in greasy overalls, and
the third figure showed the fash of n
collar. The sheriff, Ben Chacherre,
and some other man, thought Gra-
mont. He would not have known Cha
cherre had he encountered him face
to face. To him, the man was name
only.
The mention Of his own name by
Chacherre impelled him to go forward
and demand some explanation. Then
It occurred to him that perhaps he
had made a mistake; 1t would have
been very easy, for he was not certain
that Chacherre had referred to him.
There could be other Gramonts, oil
other men whose name would have
much the same sound in Creole
mouth.
"Td better attend to my own bust
ness" thought Gramont, and turned
away. He noticed that the motor haC
ceased its work. "Wonder what rlcl

JOHNSON IDENTIFIES
ESTAVERA ASMANW WHO
MURDERED HIS WIFE
fRepublican A. p. Leased wirel

TUCSON, Ariz., May 20-The jury
for the re-trial of Paul Hadley. alias
William S. Estayer. was selected and
swor.l in by the clerk just before noon
today and after the opening address
by Prosecutor George II. Darnell, the
state began presentation of evidence,
with Peter Johnson. husband of the
woman alleged to have been killed by
Hadlcy, as the first witness on the
stand
The defendant is charged with first
degree murder in connection with the
shooting and killing of Mrs. Anna G.
Johnson at a lonely spot on the AJo-
Stoyal road, on the night Of Novena-
ber Is. 1921.
The most dramatic scene during
the short time that Johnson was on
the stand occurred when Deputy
Prosecutor Mathews. who conducted
the witness examination, asked
Johnson who shot him.
Standing up and pointing tremnl-
ing finger at the defendant. the wit
ness replied.
.sThat man you call Estaver."
Johnson told the jury that shortly
after arriving with his wife in Tue
son on November IA. he met Hadley
and that the latter induced them TO
stop at the hotel at which the de-
fendant was registered.
Hadley, said the witness. asked
permission to accompany him over
land as far as Sentinel, near where
the defendant claimed to have a
broken down automobile. This re-
quest was granted.
Johnson said he and his wife had
planned travelling via the Phoenix,
Blythe and Mecca route to Los
Angeles but that Hadley talked them
out of it by showing them pur-
ported photograph of impossible
road conditions on that route.
The witness then related the story
of starting on the trip on November
Is, the shooting, the carrying of the
first news of the murder to Stoyall,
and the pursuit of the assailant.
What did you first say to the de-
fendant after he had been appre-
hended and brought before you?D
asked Deputy Prosecutor Mathews of
the witness.
81 said:
"'You scoundrel, why didn't you
finish me along with my wife instead
of letting me live to suffer, was the
reply of Johnson.
Cross examination of the witness
by the defense will be taken up on
Monday morning.

Edison Has Plan
To Improve Farm
Credit Machinery

WASHINGTON, May 20.-Thomas
A. Edison conferred here today with
Comptroller of the Currency Crissin-
ger, and later with Secretary Hoover
on his plan for improving the coun-
try's farm credit machinery through
establishment of chain of govern
ment warehouses.
Both Mr.. Hoover and Mr.. Crissin-
ger were understood to have begun
a study of Mr.. Edison's suggestions
from the economic and financial
standpoints.
Mr.. Edison's plan embodies estab-
lishment of large warehouses in the
agricultural sections of the country,
built by the government where far
mers might store their grain and
other products. until marketed. Issu-
ance of certificates up to 80 per cent
of the value of products stored, is
proposed, the certificates to be Sc
curity for loans to farmers, which
would eventually be eligible for re-
discount by federal reserve banks.
The plan contemplates 1T was said,
that the farm products would be held
in the warehouses upwards of year
one-twelfth of the amount stored
being released each month to stabi-
lize the country's supply of agricul-
tural commodities and equalize the
farmers marketing conditions.

JAPAN CARRYING
OUT PROVISIONS
.OF CHINA PACT
rRepublIcan A. p. Leased Wirel

PEKING, May 20--Japanese mill
tary control in Shantung already is
being withdrawn in accordance with
the agreement between China and
Japan signed at Washington last Feb
ruary. Chinese guards have replaced
about one third of the Japanese
troops on the railroad running $50
miles from Tsingtao the seaport, to
Tsinanfu, capital of Shantung prov
ince.
Thus history is reversing itself in
Shantung. Twentyfour years ago
Germany was in the process of TAX
ing the province from China. To-day
Japan is restoring it to its original
owner.
withdrawal OF the Japanese troops
was agreed upon independently of the
Washington treaty. Commissioners
of each country are ready to proceed
to S;hantung to negotiate for the
transfer of public property. indemni-
ties for which yet remain to be fixed.
1t is believed that Japan will ask
about $1O0,000,000 gold for her in
vestments and improvements in
Shartung.
The province now being restored to
China holds an important industrial
position aside from its sentimental
value to the republic as the birthplace
OF Confucius and the cradle Of Chin
ese civilization.
Germanys seizure in 1898 of Tsing-
tao Bay for naval base, together
with the surrounding district known
as Kiaochow. formed part of European
aggression in China in that year. At
the opening of the world war. Japan
promptly took Kiaochow and the
Tsingtao- -Tsinanfu railroad from the
Germans and has held them ever
since.
The province of Shantung produces
more human hair for conversion into
switches and women's hair nets than
any other part of the world. 1t also
contributes largely to the millinery
business in its manufacture of straw
braid from which hats are fashioned.
Another industry is the making or
egg powder. Millions of eggs an
nually are dried and ground into
powder for shipment to countries
where fresh eggs are scarce.
With the advantages of Improve
ments made by Germany and Japan,
Shantung never will return to what
it wes before 1898, progressive
Chinse declare. They predict that
Tsingtao, converted by the Germans
into a model city with broad. shaded
streets and substantial buildings of
European architecture, will become a
rival Of Shanghai and Pelling both for
business and tourist travel.

the moving picture star reached
Chicago today en- route to her home
in New York with a pledge Of love
from Valentino on her lips and tears
in her eyes when she heard the lat
est news of the screen idol.
ALI the way on her long trip from
the West, she steadfastly refused TO
discuss the case with scores OF
newspaper reporters who boarded the
train at almost every station or who
were already on it when it started,
but at the last moment, when someone
suggested that her silence might re-
suit in misiudgment of Valentino and
asked her if she loved him. her lips
formed one word-'foreyer." Then
she resumed her attitude OF silence.
Persons on her train said she told
them she would never, never leave
Rodolph,' and planned to return to
him, but Miss Hudnut herself would
say nothing to this effect to reporters.
Miss Hudnut sent Valentino nine
telegrams and a special delivery let
ter during the trip here. She re-
ceived II kilograms from him. All
were couched in terms of endear-
ment such phrases as bushels OF

MYSTERY CAR To
BE { n TERED IN
MAY 80 CLASS|C
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

NEW YORK, May 20 A n1ys-
terious car will carry the life hopes
of two inventors when the barrier is
sprung Memorial Day on the 500
mile sweepstakes at Indianapolis, and
if their words are to be taken at
face value, q victory for them will
mean the loosening of a. thunderbolt
on the internal combustion engine in
dustry, automobile. airplane and ma
rine.
Grouped with their assistants in a
greasy office in a more greasy shop
on the Upper West Side, the two in
ventors, Rudolph Wehr and j. II.
Lehman. with great reluctance,
partly lifted the veil of the mystery
this afternoon, flatly refusing to di-
vuIge all the details. even declining
to talk at first, explaining that they
desired to demonstrate first and tell
about it afterwards.
Wehr's invention is the more i'm
portant of the two. He claims to
have perfected the rotary valve en-
gine-the goal of many engineers.
He has spent ii years. days and
nights without previous technical in
struction. evolving motor, the gem
Grated heat of which will not pre-
clude smooth opening and closing of
valve without exertion of horse
power
The result is an engine, he says, 20
per cent lighter than the present
valve type and of at least 100 fewer
parts. 1t was arrived at by engi-
neering, calculation and untiring en-
perimenting, he said using standard
metal alloys.
The saving in fuel consumed, in
addition to increased efficiency, will
be incalculable. they declare.
The other invention concerns the
ignition system-substitution of an
alternating current for direct. Both
have labored here together for eight
years. Alternating ignition means
higher speed, twin spark and work
ing from a single break, eliminating
the pittine of the spark points.
Neither Wehr nor Lehman would
talk about the speed of the racing
car they have conceived. but there
are reliable reports that it has regis
tered between 10 and 40 miles an
hour. 1t has been tuned up only in
the dead of night on lonely roads to
aid in keeping the secret.
The car will be the most unusual
on the Indianapolis track. 1t is a
single scatter and will carry no mech
anician, only Frank E. Dawson. a
Well known dirt track pilot at the
