TALLY the same as it was toward the

some of the high schools in the city

For the reason that the public

DROPS INQUIRY INTO
JOHNSON'S SHOOTING
District Attorney Satisfied A.
fair Was Accident

PLATTsBURG, n. Y, Sept. 4.-District
Attorney Harold A. Jerry. who. with
State troopers has been investigating the
shooting OF a. NJ. "Buddie" Johnson at
the camp OF Jack Clifford on Chateaugay
Lake last Thursday night, said to-day
after consideration OF his own findings
and the report OF state troopers that as
far as he was concerned the case was
closed.
In view of this finding he declined
to disclose the names OF the stage and
screen notables said to have been at
the Clifford camp. 1t was reported this
afternoon that Johnsons chances for
recovery remain doubtful.
The District Attorney said his inves-
tigation showed no motiye for an attempt
to murder Johnson; that there was n,
evidence OF any attempt TO commit sui
eide. since the location OF the wound
would contradict this theory; and that
Johnson's own statement. made In the
hospital. was that the shooting was acci-
dental while he was engaged In clean
ing a revolver.

LIQUOR KILLS
TWO BROOKLYN MEN
Six Arrests Made as Rust0n
and Police Investigate Red
Hook District.
VICTIMS WERE ON SPREE
Relatives Say Pair Who Died
About Same Time Had Been
Drinking for Days.
VICTIMS WERE ON SPREE

Poisoned liquor is believed to have
killed two Brooklyn men yesterday
and District Attorney Ruston and the
police Of the Hamilton avenue station
are investigating the Red Hook dis
trict in an effort to find it's source. The
dead men are Edward Burke, 33 years
old, dock laborer, of 143 Pioneer
street. and William Strelitz. "a, boat
hand, Of 1877 Conover street.
The fact that they were chums
that they spent Sunday together
drinking, according to members OF
their families. and that their illnesses
were similar. leaves little doubt in the
minds of their relatives and the police
that they were victims of poisoned
liqnor.
Six arrests have been made as re-
no direct evidence against the prisoners.
Detectives under Capt. Daniel O'Connor
went to restaurant conducted by Mrs
Jennie Johnson at 100 Conover street
toners, one of them woman. Mrs
Johnson was charged with violation OF
the Mullan-Gage law. and the customers
with disorderly conduct. A half pint OF
a brown fluid supposed to be whisky was
found in the restaurant. and a smaller
quantity was gathered from glasses on
one of the tables
During the greater part Of Sunday
Burke and Strelitz were guests in the
home fla family OF the name Of John
son at 20 Center street. where Strelitz
once rented a room. These Johnsons
are not related to the woman who has
the restaurant. Burke left the house
at O'Clock in the afternoon and went
home and to bed. Yesterday morning
his mother, alarmed by his groans
called doctor, but when he reached
the house her son was dead. 1t was
II o'clock when Strelitz left the John
son house and went to his own home
where he lived with his father. Gustave.
He became i'll at about the same time
as Burke and his father sent for a doc
tor. but young StrelitZ died while the
doctor was on his way to the house.
Both Mrs. Burke and Mr.. Strelitz told
the police that their sons had been
drinking heavily for several days and
requested that they make an investiga-
tion to find out whether they had been
poisoned. The inquiry was not Ions
under way before Capt. o'Connor and
his men were informed that Burke and
Strelltx had frequented the restaurant
of Mrs. Johnson.
The fluid found in the restaurant was
seized and turned over to the city
chemist. who will make an analysis.

JACKSON. Cal, Sept. 4.-Jackson was
still thrilled tonight with the report
that explosions had been heard which
apparently were answering signals from
the forty-six miners who have been en-
tombed IN the Argonaut mine for a
week. although officials In charge OF the
work declined to discuss the matter and
insisted Thursday was the earliest date
on which the men could be reached.
The list Of missing men was reduced
TO forty-six to-day by the discovery
that one OF the men supposedly under
ground IN the Argonaut mine had quit

u. S. Deaf to Hints
of Debt Conference
Special Dispatch to THE New yoRK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c., Sept. 4.

New York Herald Bureau.
Washington. ID. c.. Sept. =.
THE veiled suggestion OF the
French Government that the
= United States participate in
an allied conference on war debts
has had chilly reception in Wash
ington.
The Administration view is that
this Government regards the ques-
tion of debt cancellation as no
longer open to debate so far as the
United States is concerned. The
American Debt Funding Commits
sion will proceed with its work
along the lines mapped out by
Congress, and President Harding
does not intend to allow the United
States to be dragged into inter-
national discussions staged for the
purpose of debt cancellation. There
will be no receding from the policy
that the European debtors must
separately arrange for the adjust
standing, without reference to Ger--
man reparations or other questions.
There is. however. the possibility
of American participation in a con-
ference to consider world exchange
difficulties. but such a meeting
would have the United States as a
participant only with the definite
understanding that war debt cam
collation. would not be brought up.

OF Philadelphia" Mr.. Gompcrs said. so
I have come here to bring a message
OF encouragement and hope for con-
tinued freedom. Justice and democracy.
This labor day. under the party OF LIN
coin is not Joyous day. for we can
not look the present and the future In
the face with confidence. American
citizenship must more frmly resolve to
stand by the Declaration OF Independence
and the constitutional guarantees OF the
republic.
"Our antagonists say 70 MS that our
organization might have been good

might have done n great deal Of good

They say they should treat with US as

Mr.. Gompers Joined in the laughter
which this sally provoked and then he
recited The part labor played In the
war
Then 4 half hystcricai man with tears
streaming down hie face exclaimed.
They want new blood" The man was
right below the speaker, who stopped
10 ask him what he had said
The interfupter was inart'culate As
he said, II lost enough of them over

meaning ~ the scene and said
"Tt ls all right. brother. ! am proud

That closed the incident and the
speaker continued to praise labor FOR
its part In the war and said labor
