Salem, N. J., Sept. 2o.-A story of frantic flight from coast tocoast and city to city, while he peddled shoe strings and collar buttons, or sold cloth ing and real estate, for livelihood was told today by Alfred D. Mitchell, former ly treasurere of Salem and prominent business man here who fled last Feb ruary when he was about to be charged with having sold an issue of cancelled municipal bonds, the original value of which was sso,0oo.
 His wanderings came to an end when a girl from his home town recognized him on street in Los Angeles. She wred Clemont Garrison, chief of police in Salem and a Los Angeles detective soon put an ned to Mitchell's flight. He was brought back here today and lock ed in jail.
 It was only because of his wife and children. Mitchell said. that he did not end his life. There is only one thing dread" he said in his cell. That is facing my wife and children"
 Mrs Mitchell was left virtually desti- tute by her husbands flight. and there after lived with relaatives in vineland, N. J.
 1T blame this whole thing on my brokerage business" said Mitchell. "I put every cent I had in it in an eff fort to save it, but some of my associ- aees were not above spending several thousand a night. The business justSfell apart and I had to stand for it.'' Mitchell was said to have confessed to having sold the cancelled bonds gradu- ally. and to have offered them as collat- eral the bond issue in question was or | dered cancelled because of defects in the l printing. Mitchell. who was town treas urer at a salary of s1o.ooo at the time was ordered to destroy the bonds. A new issue was printed, but it was months be fore it became known that the cancelled issue was in circulation.

ing his impressions of the delegates and the prospective proceedings. He said: q have been chairman of the party for more than six years, have attended every democratic convention since I attained my majority and I can say that I never saw so much enthusiasm, or felt it go strongly, among the delegates as I see and feel this time. It is the enthusi asm of delegates over the prospects for success of the party. The delegates in their talk in their hand grasp, in their spirits all evidence the great desire for harmony and all seem to be anxious to select ticket which will appeal to the best interests of the commonwealth. There seems to be great determination behind this spirit of enthusiasm which to me seems to mean victory at the coming election. The spirit has pre- vailed in their speech. in their confer ences and in the several meetings of the state committe.
 "When you have delegates come to you
 ard ask for a message to carry home to the democrats in their town some Etf those delegates being men who have
 not been in a convention for twenty wears, many of them gray haired. it can mean only that they are confident of the success of the party at the polls. 1 These men and these women come from towns, some of them far distant, at their own expense to take part in de- Alterations which are for the good of
 the commonwealth. 1t means rewak- ening of interest in public affairs. All signs point to vcictory for the part< at ] the November election"

The British foreign office is described by the Kemalist envoy as having laughed when he suggested that unless peace could be arranged quickly. the Kemalists would tucn the Greeks out of Asia Minor.
 The Kemalist diplomat then rose and told the British officials soberly:
 T am sorry that you have laughed Turkey has lost 100000 Of her people by war. and there are too many o.>aans for us to join in the laughing at the idea of anothec war. feel very sad" Fethl Bey then sent his cipher message to Mustapha Renal Pasha saying tha, onthing could be done with the British government toward peace and that the offensive need wait no longer, for he had exhausted every effort

PART PLAYED BY AMERICANS
 IN RESCUE WORK AT SMYRNA

Athens, Sept. 20.- (By The A. P.)--All accounts of the rescue work at Smyrna during its terrible experiences from fire, pillage and massacre are piling up ey- idences of the notable part played by Americans in those saving labors.
 For instance, there IS the story told by Miss Jean Christie, of Springfield, Mass, director of the American Y. W. c. A. in Smyrna. She is now in Athens as refugee and speaks of her own part in the tragedy with all modesty, yet by others, it was declared that she had displayed remarkable bravery and re- .sourcefulness.
 With Mss Myrtle Nolan, also af American, Miss Christie conducted school for children.
 "when the fire started" she said refugees began streaming into the city, moaning, weeping and imploring for help. I thought of the 150 Armenian orphans in. the houses and school nearby and thought it best to bring them to the Y. W. C. A., when l got there, I found the building afiire and led them through the streets to another Y. W. C. A. The children screamed pitifully, fearing the Turkish soldiers, who were everywhere.
 Soldiers stopped us on the streets but I pleaded with them to let us proceed without harm, and thy did so. The scene that night was terrible. Flames, accompanied by resounding explosions, advanced steadily, consuming everything, including the '. w C. A. and we lost all. We were ordered to take refuge on an American >stean Twelve American bluejackets escorted ls to the waterfront, where we embark on the American steamer Winona. ,fhe streets were filled with dead and Gying and one man was shot before my eyes.
 Bodies were lying on the quay. The next day saw the remains of number of persons floating on the water. Il seems all like 8 nightmare. For ten i days. we did not take of our clothes. , | shall never forget the look of terror those little Armenian children showed as I led them through the streets oi l Smyrna"
 From official circles, 1t was learned here that Dr. Alexander MacLachlan. ot 1 Kingston, Ontario, president of the In ternational college at Smyrna, and al American sailor were stripped ant thrashed by the so-called irregular Turk ish soldiers. The doctor was badly in jured Ca Boston despatch reporting : cable from Dr. MacLachian stated to day that he and his family were safe a Malta).
 Another American, who is entitled t
 honorable mention was Captain John Nj
 Walters, of the steamer Winona, who in
 sisted on returning to the quay to talk
 off additional refugees, including .twelv
 Americans. The Winona finally left un
 der fire from the Turkish army, whil
 it's officers, as the vessel glided througl
 the water pulled more refugees aboard
 Another American steamer isS said t have rescued 800 refugees and lande them at SalonGSi. In all about 20 Americans were brought here from tn fire. Ofthese. 150 were of Greek origlr
