Lawton, Oklahoma,
Minister Charged
With Incendiarisn

LAWTON, Okla, June 8.-Prelim-
mary hearing of arson charges pend
ing against Rev. Thomas J. Irwin
and H. c. Lewis, in connection with
alleged incendiary fires in the First
Presbyterian church, of Lawton, was
called in justice court here today.
Mr.. Irwin, for twenty years pastor
of the church, resigned recently
wher the governing presbytery pre-.
pared to try him on charges Of con-
duct unbecoming a minister; Lewis,
an elder of the church and a sup
porter Of Irwin, also resigned.
Filing the arson information
against the minister and the elder
came as a climax to a bitter con-
troversy in church over action of
the minister. Irwin publicly blamed
an opposing minister of congrega-
ton for fire which was discovered
in the annex of the church built
with money donated by the late Jake
L. Hamon, of Ardmore.
Then Mr.. Irwin was found bound
and gagged in roadside ditch some
miles from here. He told a story
OF having been abducted and chloro-
formed by three men who threatened
his life, and warned him to leave
Lawton. County Attorney Fletcher
convened court of inquiry to in.
vestigate the whole church contro-
versy, and the result that the min
lister himself charged with RESPONSE
bi]ity for the fires. The county at
torney said he also obtained infornaa-
ton which tended to prove that Mr..
Irwin arranged his abduction to
gain sympathy. :.
County Attorney Riley announced
he based the arson charge against
Mr.. Irwin on information obtained
by secreting telephone device in
an ante room at the courthouse
where Irwin and several members
of his church board were waiting to
be called before the court of an
quiry. The conversations of the
minister and the elders was over

King Alexander and
Princess Marie Are
Married in Belgrade
BY Al. R. DECKER

Especial Gable to The Atlanta Journal and
Chicago Daily News-Copyright, 1929
BELGRADE, Jugo Slavia, June g..
The marriage Of King Alexander, of
Jugo Slavia, and Princess Marie, of
Rumania, took place today in the
Greek Orthodox church. Thus was
completed the alliance of the royal
families of Rumania, Greece and
Serbia.
Belgrade had prepared for six
months to receive the future queen.
Traces of the bonbardments and the
two years occupation by the enemy
were nearly all removed and the
streets paved. More new buildings
have been completed in Belgrade re-
Gently than in any other European
city and the town can no longer
be referred to as "Hickville." A new
castle, to which the king will take
his bride is completed, but the mem
bers of the royal Rumanian family
on this occasion are guests in the
old castle.
Belgrade today was gay with the
red and white and blue and gold
flags of the two nations, thousands
of white pedestals supporting the
Serb emblems. Tonight the city will
be bright with electric festoons and
illuminated fountains.
The representatives of many for
eign powers brought the good wishes
of their governments. H. Percival
Dodge, minister of the United States
to the kingdom of the Serbs, Croats
and Slovenes, was the official Aneri-
acan representative at the wedding.
The entire week is a holiday and
there is a succession of receptions,
serenades and dinners. 1t is esti-
mated that $4,000 persons have come
into Belgrade for the festivities. Ow-
ing to the lack of hotel accommoda.

of picturesque costumes, as the
Serbs are mostly peasants.

RUSSIA To STAND
PAT ON POLICIES
BY GEORGE WITTE

especial Cable to The Atlanta Journal and
Cnicago Daily News-Copyright, 1927
BERLIN, June S.-An emphatic
statement that Russia would make
no further concessions in its poll
cles to the United States and no
reference in Russian internal af-
1alrs by the United States or any
other country would be tolerated
was made by Foreign Minister Tchit-
cher1n late Wednesday when he re-
celVed a number of newspaper cor
respondents.
We realize well enough" he said,
tnat without the United States no
serious attempt to reconstruct Rus
sia can be made. At the same time
we have made all the concessions
" possibly can make and will yield
70 no further demands from the
united States. Washington must
reahze-the sooner the better-that
the soviet government is definitely
established and that there is no
chance of the present form Of gov
eminent in Russia being changed.
There are two types of Amerl-
cans according to our experience.
On the one side are Charles R.
crane, of Chicago, ex-minister to
China, who is bitterly OPPOSED to
anything that smacks of bolshevism.
On the other side is Ex-Governor
James p. Goodrich, of Indian, who
mas just come over to Europe and
who represents the untainted 100
per cent American point of view. If
there were more men as unbiased
as Mr.. Goodrich the United States
and. Russia would soon come to
terms
Commisar Tchitcherin added that
while the soviets were not opposed

commission carry on negotiations

which are granted by the president,
and that information may be OBJ
tanned on any particular case.
