him to cease lawiessness. She said
that despite tl1fs appeal he went

their reformation and asked to be
permitted to go home and get their
stills. Judge johnson granted the

GENOA. April 29.-Foreign Minis
ter Tchitcherin of Russia today sent
Premier Facta of Italy, as president
of the economic conference, a note
expressing the dissatisfaction Of the
Russian delegation with the delay in
replying to it's note of April 20, and
saying the note would be withdrawn
and the Russians would resume their
initial position unless they were as
eured that the credits necessary to
restore Russia would be granted
In line with Prime Minister Lloyd
Georges declaration that the new
allied proposals to the Russians must
be considered as a whole, a special
drafting committee was endeavorine
today to frame a document which
would harmonize the differences in
the demands submitted by the Brit
ish and French delegations
Expected to be Ready Today.
The preamble was completed last
might, and the remainder Of the draft
was expected to be ready for SUBJ
mission to the full subcommission on
Russian affairs. scheduled to meet at
II o'clock today.
While the French document stated
that agricultural reconstruction
should come before other things" the
British program dealt more fully with
credits for Russia. favoring a reduc-
tton in her war debt and conceding
that foreigners formerly owning
property in Russia be granted the
use Of it instead of a return of ac-
tual ownership. which would conflict
with the soviet principle of national
ixation.
Demands of French.
France would demand that If pri-
vate property cannot be restored the
former owners be given indemnity.
The French further desire an ar
rangement for payment of interest on
the Russian state bonds. Failing an
agreement before December 81 next.
the matter would be decided by a
mixed arbitration tribunal with an
impartial chairman.
Louis Barthou, chief French dele
gate, took occasion yesterday for
tended rU quit the conference, and
said it was not sure he would go to
Paris to confer with Premier Poin-
care. 1t Is understood. however. that
he may leave for the French capital
after the allied Russian proposals
are reported to the conference proper.
British Make Eight Points.
The correspondent of the Central
News says he learns that the British
draft proposals to Russia set forth
eight points. the principal of which
is that Russia shall recognize all her
debts, and, after a moratorium of five
years, pay 2 per cent interest for five
years. and then 4 per cent for another
1ve years.
The document does not specify that
Russia must accept the principle of
private ownership. but demands long
leases of private property to it's for
mer owners. A credit scheme to
finance trade would be favorably con-
sidered if Russia accepted the pro-
posals.

PARIS. April 29.-Count Peretti de
la Rocca. political director of the for
eign office. is likely to succeed Jean
Jules Jusserand as ambassador to the
United States as soon as the former
can be spared by Premier Poincare,
1t was stated today.
The retirement of NJ. Jusserand, ac-
cording to present plans. will be ar
ranged during his usual summer visit
to Paris.
Count Peretti de la Rocca now holds
a position corresponding to that Of
permanent undersecretary Of state
for foreign affairs, and is next in
charge under the foreign minister.
Doubts Arose i'm 1921.
An intimation of Count Peretti de la

send him there appears already to
have reached the Washington authori-
ties.
The French government. it Is ex-
planned in French quarters, desires
to do nothing Of a precipitate nature.
In view of NJ. Jusserand's long and
admirable services in Washington, his
intimate friendships with previous
Presidents and his entirely correct re-
lations with the present administra-
tion. 1t appears. however, that doubts

Surprise to Politician.
Although NJ Barthou was a MEM
ber OF the BRAND cabinet, he was con-
sidered in full accord with NJ Poin-
care on the general lines Of policy at
quarters of being prime mover in Bri-
and's downfall because he thought
BRAND was conceding too much to
Prime Minister Lloyd George on the
reparation question and in dealing
with soviet Russia. Hence a differ
Russian question would come as a
surprise to political quarters here.
1t is pointed out in well informed
circles. however, that M Barthou as

The "children's crusade" organized

eral amnesty for war-law violations,

at the White House. and was di-
rected by George B. Christian, jr., the
Presidents secretary. to lay their
petition before Attorney General

The Crusade" composed of thirty
seven wives and children of men still
imprisoned for war-law violations.
did not see President Harding: An
nouncement had been made at the
White House almost coincident with
the arrival Of the delegation in Wash
ington. that Mr.. Harding would not
receive the delegation because all
such matters as pardons ana COM
mutations for federal prisoners are
handled by the DepaEtmsnt, to-. OF Justice. ,Ss
torney General had been asked to
show "every consideration and atten-
ton" to the delegation.
Although Secretary Christian did
not say so, he intimated. the commit
tee said, that the President might see
the committee some time next week
or at a later date.
Each Case Stands Alone.
Secretary Christian told the callers
that President Harding had conversed
several times with Attorney General
Daugherty regarding this class Of
federal prisoners and that he always
has expressed the opinion that they
should be treated individually and not
as a whole. He said the Attorney
General is fully cognizant of the
Presidents opinion, and that the DEL
egation would be given every con-
sideration and attention by him.
The party left the executive once
feeling in g. much happier frame OF
mind than when it arrived at the front
gate Of, the White House grounds an
hour before, when they were abrupt
ly halted by the White House police
and denied entrance because they were
displaying signs. -

DUBLIN. April zs.-The peace con-
ference called by Lord Mayor ONeill
of Dublin held another meeting here
today, but after a three-hour ses-
sion 1t dissolved without any agree,
ment having been reached. 81
An official statement said that It
was regretted that no bases agree
ment had been found and no useful
purpose could be served by prolong-
Ing the conference.
The staying Of several prominent
citizens Of Cork yesterday caused a
sensation here equal to that caused
when several members Of the family
of Owen MacMahon were killed in
Belfast last month.
The full story of the outrages is
still lacking. especially the one in
which either Rev. Richard Harbord
of the Murragh rectory or mis- son was
the victim. Several reports agree
that the son was the one killed, but
none relates the circumstances.
Believed to BE Reprisals.
It is widely believed that the mur-
ders were intended in reprisal for the
MacMahon killings, or. rather for the
fmpunity with which their authors
remain at large, as many southerners
have voiced the conviction that the
MacMahons were killed by members
Of the special police.
