SOFIA SAYS HOLLIS

Senator's Marriage.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SOFIA, April 19.-The divorce issued
to former United States Senator
Henry F. Hollis of New Hampshire by
the pastor of the Unitarian Church at
Dubnitza is not officially recognized
by the Bulgarian state and possesses
no legal force the department of re-
ligion and education of the foreign
Office has advised the Bulgarian lega-
tion in Washington.
The religion department denies hav-
ing given official approval to the
divorce papers. and the government is
instituting proceedings against Pastor
Toplisky, who granted the divorce.
D. Dobtschef, professor of canonical
law at Sofia University, declares the
divorce invalid by virtue of the Bull
garian laws. He points out that Bull
garian religious authorities have not
the power to annul a marriage con-
summated civilly either at home or
abpoad. and says that only the civil
authority which executed such mar
riage can annul 1t.
The Bulgarian newspapers are
printing long articles commenting
upon the unusualness of the case. Mr..
Hollis is well known here, as he had
poration seeking to sell the govern
ment excess American war stocks of
freight cars.

SENATE APPROVES
RIVER SURVEY FOR
PARK POSSIBILITIES
Votes Funds for Investigation
of Potomac as Far as
Great Falls.

The Senate passed a joint resolu-
ton this afternoon providing for a
survey of the Virginia and Maryland
banks of the Potomac river between
Washington and Great Falls, with the
idea of establishing public parks
along them.
Senator Fernald Of Maine, repub-
lican, chairman of the public build
ings and grounds committee, which
favorably reported the resolution
asked unanimous consent to take up
MED made a motion to take it up.
which prevailed. In statement ad-
vocating passage of the resolution
Senator Fernald pointed to the ma
tural beauties of the banks of the
river and the great advantage to the
tablishment of the proposed park
would be.
Senator Fernald also pointed out that
if the government owned this land
along the river banks and it was
ultimately determined to develop
water power or to add to the water
supply it would be more readily ac-
complished
Vote 5000 Fund.
Senator Jones Of Washington pointed
out that the resolution did not indicate
how far back from the river banks the
survey should be made. Senator King
of Utah, who declared himself in favor
o. the plan to create the parks, offered
an amendment under which the survey
would include lands on either side of
the banks which may be suitible for
park purposes. The survey would. be
made by the chief of engineers of the
Army, the resolution carrying $1,000 for
that purpose.
Senator Fernald accepted the amend
ment offered by Senator King.
Senator Norris Of Nebraska, who for
many years has favored the develop
ment of water power at Great Falls
so as to furnish light and power in
the District more cheaply than at
present, called attention that if this
park development plan was entered
upon it might result in preventing
the water power development. He
said that arguments might be made
that the land, which would have to
be submerged in the event of water
power development, was needed for
park purposes.
Norris Offers Amendment.
Senator Norris offered an amend
ment providing that the chief of en-
gineers, in making the survey of
the banks of the Potomac, should
take into consideration all plans
which have been proposed for the
DEVELOPMENT OF water power at Grea,
Falls and should make no suggestion
for park plans which would conflic,
with the proposed water power de-
velopment.
Senator Ashurst of Arizona also
took the position that nothing should
be done which might interfere with
plans for waterpower development a,
Great Falls. He charged that the
rates for electric light and power in
the District are excessive. He said
that the people anywhere else coult
not stand them. But heres he said
the people have no represen "A sion in
Congress, and they are quiesce1t
They are charged, he said. not only
twice as much as people are charged
for electricity elsewhere, but three OF
four or five times as. much.
The Norris amendment was adopted
and the resolution passed.

CONFER WITH PREMIER.
Rathenau and Chicherin Discuss
Ban With Lloyd George.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
GENOA, April 19.-Dr. Walter
Rathenau. the German foreign minis
ter. conferred with Prime Minister
Lloyd George of Great Britain and
Foreign Minister Chicherin of Russia
today regarding the barring of the
Germans from the Russian commits
sion of the conference. The Germans
will probably submit a formal reply
tonight to the allied note on this sub
ject.
Many other informal conferences
were held with legal experts of the
various delegations in an effort to
bring out the exact scope of the en-
1ente note.
The expected German demand for
discussion of her case before plen-
ary session of the economic con-
3erence will prove "a mortal blow"
to the conference, it is declared in a
French communique issued here to-
day dealing with the Russo-German
treaty and the attitude of the allies in
considering Germany eliminated from
further discussions of the Russian
question.
Nine Powers Back Protest.
The communique says that for the
first time since the signing of the
treaty of Versailles the world sees the
names of the representatives of nine
powers making up an entente affixed
TO n document which protests German
conduct.
The communique insists that the
dragging of the controversy into the
full session of the conference would
bring about a situation which Europe
wishes to avoid. namely, the lining up
of new political groups, one against
the other. 1t refers to the signing of
The Russo-German treaty as "a mani
, festation of rhe Bismarckian spirit.
y which caused the allied bloc immedi-
Rtely to affirm it's unity
No Right. Germans Say.
One of the chief objections made In
German circles to the allied protest
against Germany is that the delegates
who gathered at the Villa Raggio yes
Ierday had no right to pass along
such a protest, which. it is claimed,
could be made only by either Premier
Facta as president of the. conference,
little entente and Portugal, which
Joined the group at the last moment,
or by the entire conference.
There is, therefore, a strong cur
rent among the Germans in favor of
an appeal to the entire conference
against what they consider the IL
!egal decisions taken at the villa
Jlaggio.
Commenting this morning on the
German issue the newspaper Caffaro
says:
Acquires Virtual Army.
Germany, crushed by conferences
and disarmed by treaties, suddenly
acquires a virtual army of which no
treaty can deprive her. because it
does not belong to her. This is the
Russian army, now composed of
about two million men, which Trotz-
Ky rules with an iron hand. and
which he uses as a menace to Rus
sia's neighbors and the whole of
Europe, even when he pretends to
hold it in check with words of peace
no less dangerous than his warlike
Vaccinations. This is the really great

LABOR DAY GAMES

When Gainesville cancelled the

agement began looking for games for
Labor Day. After considerable cor
respondence they have succeeded in
lining up two games with Leesburg
for Monday, one to be played at 10 A.

that day and expects to get some ex-

of winning both games from the
Wildcats. Ocala thinks she already
has the stuff to lick them, so lets see
the games and see who is right. These
will probably be the last games of the
season in 0cala. The team will play
in Palatka the last of the week and
then the season will be closed. A
large crowd is expected at both of the
Labor Day games as it is a holiday
and many will be wandering around
wishing for something to do to pass

A confession disclosed that the dis
infectant was kept to destroy evi-

Moonshine poured into the tub at the

their back yard the very next day and
pitch winning ball against their team,
but that is just what BURY did. The

rebuttal to the name "Gink" when ap-
piled to Taylor) were absolutely help
less before the speed and control of

the entire game. On the other hand
the Wildcats got on to Perez pretty
heavily and secured nine hits, several
of which hit the various fences of the
Leesburg park. Both teams were
rather free with their errors. The
Wildcats made four and Leesburg
made five.
