It's been a terrible day
II can imagine IL /" Harriet's voice
was pleasantly commonplace. But the
moment had its thrill for her. This
lean, tall. tired man, with his abstract
manner, his perfunctory s~courtesies. his
nervous, clever hands, doomed lii oddly
il roic proportions in Harriet's life.
His face was keen and somewhat
lined under a smooth crest OF slightly
craving hair; he smiled very rarely,
but there was a certain kindness In
his gray eyes, when Nina or Ward

riet liked. %s&

words a year. He merely smiled
kindly when she thanked him for the
Christmas gift that bore his I'M

a nod of greeting when she came back.
Now and then he asked with sharp
interest about Nina's teeth or his

But Harriet had known other types

his Indifference, she had begun to ad-

tirely untitled to judge a man.
Isabelle was always breezily civil to
her husband; he had long ago van
ished as completely from among the
vital elements of her life as If he were
dead, perhaps mor than If he were

about him at all---that he never saw
her little affairs; she supposed him
perfectly satisfied with his home and
children and club and business, and
incidentally with his beautiful figure

~distressingly, several years ago, when
he had bored her with references to
her duty" and her influence over
Nina, and her obligations to her true
self. But that had all stopped long
since. and now Isabelle was free to
sleep late. to dress at leisure, to make
what engagements she pleased, to see

French PROPOSE
RIGID CONTROL OF
GERMAN FINANCES
Barthow Submits Plan For
Dealing With Preparations
Question--Differs Radi-
caIly From British

Paris, October 20.--Complete and
rigid control of ali German finances,
power to veto expenditures and reg
ulate taxation, and authority to die
tate the arrangement OF the budgets
of the various German states are
among the chief proposals contained
In the plan of the Fernch govern
ment for solution OF Germany's
financial difficulties and for placing
that country in a position to meet
her separations payments.
The plan was submitted to the
reparations commission tonight by
Louis Barthou, the French repre-
sentative on the commission and dis
cussion of the project will begin to-
morrow. Although not mentioned in
the official summary, NJ. Barthou's
plan contemplates a meeting OF lead
ing business men of the world to de-
termine Germany's capacity to pay
and to consider the question Of inter
allied debts.
The plan, in effect, is reply to
the British reparations project re-
Gently placed before the commission
by Sir John Bradbury 1t differs
radically from the British point of
view. NJ. Barthou urges the calling
of a Brussels conference to deal with
a broad reparations settlement and
allied debts and the question of
German payments in 1923 and 1924.
Limit Powers
France would limit the powers OF
the reparations commission to the
applications of new guarantees ad
reforms for Germany, leaving the
more comprehensive issues to an in
ternational meeting.
The proposition would gradually
put Germany on a gold basis, begin
ming with an issue OF gold treasury
securities. NJ. Barthou would have
Germany pay her outstanding obli-
cations in paper currency, and he
calculates that then Germanys paper
circulation would be $4,000. 900
marks. which at the present rate of
exchange are worth less than the
reischbank gold reserve.
The moment has come, accordin g
to VI. Barthou. when the allies mus;
take energetic steps or else be faced
by a Germany proclaimed before the
world as ruined nation, despite
the fact that her actual capital is in
tact.
I'VE don't accept the contention
that Germany is totally incapable of
paying" says NJ. Barthou, in his
plan. Despite Germany's enormous
budget difficulties, she retains tre-
inendous riches. and has great
strength to continue production and
maintain her national vitality"

Preliminary investigation had not
shown the cause of the explosion but
il Is believed that shot fired by one
of the 10 men in the mine to loosen
the coal caused the blast. Another
explanation given by the survivors
is that the gas became ignited from
a lamp worn by Everett Seaton, fire
boss of the mine, who was Killed by
the explosion.
Burl Sprouz, a miner, believed to
