MAY DELAY CONCLAVE.
CORRESPONDENT SAYS

London, Jan. 25.-The Rome
correspondent of the London Times
lis informed from trustworthy
source that the Conclave will prob
ably be postponed owing to difficult
ty in completing arrangements in
time.
1t becomes more certain daily
that the main issues of the election
will be the Roman question, the
correspondent says. Several cardi-
nails support the policy of re-enter-
ing into official relations with the
Italian government.
The correspondent says that 1t is
interesting to observe how strong
the current In favor of foreign
Ipope is, but declare that 1t Is eX-
'tromely impro bable n foreign one
will be chosen, since the war pre-
vents the foreign cardinals from
uniting. The voting may be eX-
pected to follow these broad lines:
The French do not desire to see
diplomatic relations opened be-
tween Italy and the vatican, since
France, which has taken the place
Of Austria as the greatest Catholic
power, would then lose the advan-
tage she gained by sending an am
bassador to the holy see. There
fore, the French, Belgians and
Poles probably will vote for the cir
reconcilibles."

HEMMED IN BY ICE IN
STRAITS OF MACKINAW

Mackinaw City, Mich, Jan. 25.-
More than 100 passengers tonight
were spending their second night
on a Duluth, South Shore and At

age from Mackinaw City to st. lg-
mace, and while a few of the more
hardy of the trains 130 passengers
have elected to make the mile trip
.afoot over the ice to return here,
the majority chose to stay aboard.
The stranded passengers are eX-
periencing no discomfort, accord
ing to those who have come back.
The ferry carries provisions for q
week or ten days. Cards and liter
.ature are providing the principal
means of relieving the monotony.

Mellon Has Adopted a
"WatChdog of the Treas
ury" Attitude Toward the
Matter, Says MacNider.
SECRETARY TAKING
PESSIMISTIC VIEW
Adjusted Compensation Plan
Will Strengthen the Eco
nOmiC Fabric of the Ma
ton, He Declares.

New York. Jan. 25-Hanford
MacNider, national commander of
the American Legion issued
statement today charging secre-
tary Mellon with having adopted
a watchdog of the treasury" at
titude toward the bonus question
in his letter opposing the measure,
made public last night.
The secretary is taking "the
most pessimistic view" Of the
bonus situation, Colonel MacNider
said, asserting that figures cited
in the letter did not agree with
those compiled by an actuary OF
the treasury department and sub
mitted by Senator McCumber at
the last session of congress.
I'VE know American people
want the bonus" he declared,
THE adjusted compensation plan
would do more to strengthen the
economic fabric of the nation
than any other thing that can be
done at this time.
"Nor is there any reason to be-
lieve that all eX-service men will
elect the cash bonus as alterna-
tive. But when thousands Of eX-
service men are walking the
streets we don't believe they
ought to be dictated to as to what
form Of compensation they ought
to take"

F |NAL VOTE ON
REFUND|NG BILL
EXPECTED TODAY
ConstitutionaIity of the
Measure Is Attacked;
Economic Conditions ir
Europe Are Discussed.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Dlscussion
of economic conditions in Europe
land an attack upon the conStitu-
tionality of the measure marked
senate debate on the allied debt
Irefunding bill. Chairman McCum-
ber of the finance committee told
the senate that he hoped to get
final vote tomorrow.
The situation in Europe was
brought up by Senator Borah, re-
publican, Idaho, who declared that
"the key to the policy" there was
economic destruction of the Ger
man people. He declared that while
the treaty Of Versailles remains
the law Of Europe" it would be fu-
tile for the United States to seek a
satisfactory adjustment of the for
eign debt and that any assistance
this country might seek to render
European nations would be of little
laval.
If the treaty of Versailles were
revised and the allied nations re-
duced their armies even to rea-
Isonable extent, he said, these ma
itiOns not only could meet the in
terest payments due the United
States, but could retire part of the
principal of the debt, Under pres
ent conditions he said. no man
could say when the debtor nations
could begin to pay interest, adding
that it was proper for him to call
attention that SO long as present
policies were pursued in Europe,
1--WE are justified in transacting this
debt matter on a purely business
basis"
A constitutional point against tho
! bill was raised by Senator Walsh
democrat. Montana, who argued ny
means of it congress was undertake
ing to transfer the treaty making
power from the president to the
secretary of the treasury and
commission. He quoted authorities
to support his argument that the
agreements which would be enter
ed into between the United States
and the debtor nations would be IN
fact treaties, and declared under
the constitution the negotiations
could be conducted only by the
president.
Senator McCumber and others
disputed this contention.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Dehate In
the house on the Dyer anti-lynch-
ing bill was concluded today and
the measure was taken up under

Roll calls during debate indicat-
ed that proponents of the measure
were in a majority, but it is eX-
pected that a number Of drastic
amendments will be offered In an
attempt to alter provisions which
call for heavy penalties.
Verbal Clashes in House.
The session was marked by a
verbal clash between Representa-
tive Sisson. democrat, Mississippi.
and Cooper, republican, Wisconsin,
which threw the house into COnfu-
sion with several hundred negroes
in the galleries joining in n dem
onstration that was silenced with
difficulty. The fIareup occurred
when Mr.. Cooper declared Mr.. Sis
son had "openly advocated' mob
rule. Mr.. Sisson, during an attack
on the bill, had described cOndi-
tions in the south and had con-
tended mob violence could not he
stamped out until "hlack rascals

Advocating federal action as a
means of checking lynching. Rep
resentative Mondell, republican
leader, declared that states had
failed utterly to assert their au-
thority. If permitted to go I'M

will break down and destroy law
and order and civilization.
Mr.. Garrett, Tennessee, demo-
crat leader, appealed to members
of the Pacific coast, who he said,
were confronted with q perpleXins
race question to stand with OPP
ponents of the Dyer bill in resist
ing interference Of the federal gov
ernment in state affairs.
Whatever you people IN the
west decide to do IN working ont

PH|LLIES FINED
$500 BY lands
IN NEALE CASE
Penalty Imposed for Enter
ing Into a Secret Pact
With 0utfieIder, Who Is
Also PenaIized.
By The Associates Press.)

Chicago, Jan. 25.-The Philadel-
phia club of the National league to-
night was fined 5000 by Judge
Lands, commissioner Of baseball
for entering into a secret agreemet
with Outfielder Edward Neale, who
had presented a claim for 5000 as
back salary due him. The claim
was allowed but Neale was fined
800 because Of the secret agree
ment.
When Neale signed with Phila-
delphia last spring, n secret agree
ment was made in which it was
stipulated Neale would be permit
ted to leave the club September l
to coach the Washington and JEFF
ferson college football team. The
agreement provided that Neale
would be paid to the end of
the baseball season. Subsequently,
however, Neale was released to
Cincinnati and the existence of the
secret agreement did not become
known to the Cincinnati officials
until a month after Neale reported.
The Cincinnati club declined to
pay Neale for the entire season
but he was paid for the period he
remained with the club. Neale ap-
pealed to Judge lands.
In another decision, the Chicago
club of the American league was
ordered to pay the sherman, Tex,
club S1,750 for Charles o. Robert
son, who was purchased in 1917.
Only $3.50 Of the purchase price
was paid at the time, and it was
agreed that the balance would be
paid If Robertson was retained af-
ter May 10, 1918. It developed that
Robertson was sent to the Minne-
apolis club under an optional
agreement instead of being re-
turned TO sherman.

Washington, Jan. 25.-None of
the 16 or more witnesses appearing

rect testimony relating to charges
that American soldiers had been

CARDINAL MAFF|
M|SREPRESENTED
FRIENDS ASSERT
A Poor Service is Being
Done Him BY the Press,
Representing Him as Sub
Servient to Rome.
nr The Assoelnted Press y

Washington, Jan. rs (by the AS
sociated Press. "A poor service is
being rendered by Cardinal MaffA
who is recognized as a possible sue
cessor to the late pope, by that
section of the Catholic press which
is representing him as almost sub
seryient to the House of Savoy and
declaring Bonomi is trying to influ-
ence the sacred college, it was SAID
tonight in circles informed as TO
conditions in Rome.
Discussing the situation resulting
from the death of Pope Benedict
it was said no attempt to influence
the sacred college was made by the
Italian government in the three
conclaves held since the fall of
the temporal power in 1870 and
that if such an attempt has been
made a most unfortunate situation
would have been created.
In fact, it was added, the tenden-
cy has been quite the contrary in
recent years, q moro cordial reia-
ton, although unofficial. having
developed under Plus X and under
Benedict XIV.
What the vatican insists upon, 1t
was explained is that the status of
the Pope in Rome, his freedom
from any extraneous influence
and his complete independence as
a sovereign shall be recognized and
guaranteed by the powers. Italian
statesmen, however, are hesitant in
agreeing to such conditions for
fear, it was said, this might pro-
vide a pretext for unfriendly coun-
tries to interfere in the internal al
fairs Of the kingdom.
The claim for temporal power
has been tacitly abandoned, it was
emphasized.
There was fear Of complications,
it was recalled, at the conclave
held after the death of Plus TX.
At the meetings of cardinals
which preceded the conclave, Car
dinal Manning suggested that the
sacred college should adjourn to
Malta to elect the pope while the
Spanish cardinals suggested Spain
and the Austrians Salbourg. But
when steps were taken to aseer-
tain the attitude of the italian
government, Francisco Crispi re-
piled that the government was In
a position to guarantee the con-
clave absolute liberty, independ-
ence and safety.
Crispi added that there would be
no objection by the government
il the cardinals decided to meet
outside of Italy, but, he continued:
Il cannot guarantee anything as
to the return into Italy of the car
dinals and the new pope"
The conclave was held in Italy.

HARDING URGES
CHINA To YIELD
To JAPS' OFFER
Aid of President Is Enlisted
By the Arms DELEGATES
With a View to Settling
Shantung Issue.
tBy The Associated Press.l J

Washington, Jan. 25 (by the
Associated Press 1.-The aid oi
President Harding has been en-.
listed by the arms delegates tc
bring Japan and China into agree
ment on Shantung.
Taking a direct hand in the
Washington negotiations for the
first time, the president today
urged the Chinese to accept the
latest compromise offer and thus
remove from the field OF con-
troyersy subject which has be-
come barrier to the progress Of
the conference.
Whether the move is to succeed
appears to rest largely with Pc.
king. The japanese already have
indicated informally their willing
ness to make the principal conces-
sions proposed, and the president
approached the Chinese only after
the japanese ambassador had in
formed the state department that
his government was ready to ac-
cept a tender of good offices.
Reurn of Railroad.
The settlement plan sponsored
by Harding deals only with the
return of the Tsingtao-Tsinanfu
railroad, substantially all other
questions having been agreed
upon in the exchanges between
the Japanese and Chinese. Under
the proposal, Japan would aban-
don her proposition for a loan to
China and the latter would pur-
chase the road with. treasury
notes payable at option to Is
years hence. China would receive
possession within five years but
would withdraw her opposition ia
retention of Japanese traffic
manager and chief accountant
during the period Of payment.
Although several days may be
required to reach final decision
one immediate effect of the days
developments was to bring into
relief the Importance of Shantung
in the general scheme of con-
ference accomplishments It is an
open secret that until Shantung
is settled, most of the commit
ments partially entered into here
must remain indefinite.
Naval Treaty.
The naval treaty, complete ex-
cept for the Notifications article,
was given another examination
today by the committee of Is,
but no changes were made. 1t
now is regarded as probable by
some delegates that no word re-
garding the Notifications proposal
will come from Toxic before next
week.
Today's meeting of the Far
Eastern committee was equally
inconclusive, the delegates debat-
ing without final action the sit
uation of wireless facilities IN
China. 1t was voted to reconsider
a resolution adopted December
Z, to restrict use of wireless plants
and after Elihu Root had pre-
sented substitute for his pro-
posal of yesterday the subject
was referred to a subcommittee.
At a meeting later the sub-com-
mittee likewise discussed various
proposed resolutions without ac-
ton.
