Tenants at No. 222 East 10th Street
were aroused early to-day by quar-

known as MIR. and Mrs. O'Brien."
A few minutes later the woman's

footsteps rapidly leaving by way OF
the front door, smelt smoke and then
ran into the apartment
There they found MRS O'Brien," a
comeiy woman, lying dead on the
bed, flames licking at the mattress
from a pile OF papers which had been
ignited underneath. The tenants,
captained by Edward Berishein. their
landlord, formed a bucket brigade and
had nearly put out the flames when
Policeman Nietzel of the East 9th
Street Station and DIR. Weinstein of
Reception Hospital arrived. They
helped finish the job.
DR.. Weinstein said the woman was
dead before she was placed on her
pyre. His hasty examination re-
vealed no bruises or Indications of
rough play. But the smoke and fire,
he said, had not been intense enough
to cause death, although the fire had
burned through the floor
According to the police the dead
woman's name IL Agnes Fury. She
was forty-one years old and had been
living In the house since Jan. 7. An
insurance policy in the name of
Hearlihy was the only other identi-
fication. The police questioned Dan
lei Heartily, No. 46 East 9Sth Street,
who said the dead woman had visited
him last evening, but had left about
9 o'clock.
In the kitchen a pint flask was
found containing mixture OF al
legged whiskey. which, Policeman
Nietzel said. smelt like a mixture of
ether and carbolic acid. Empty
whiskey glasses lay on the table
An hour later the man known as
"Mr. o'Brien" appeared. He said his

wife and family and, according to
the police, had been intimate with the
dead woman for twelve years He
denied any knowledge as to the cause
OF her death, saying he had been
working all night as foreman in
the Interborough subways. This
alibi was subsequently confirmed by
the police.
Davis and Heartily, after telling
their stories to District Attorney
Banton, were discharged. The po-
lice are now trying to trace Mrs.
Fury between o'clock and midnight,
when she came in with a man whose
Identity they are trying to learn. She
has been separated from her hus-
band for 16 years and had two chill
dren.
The police learned also that she
was subjected TO heart attacks and
that recently she had been drinking

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19 Copy
right, 1922).-The United States Gov
ornment has one move left which
may make it necessary to attend the
Genoa conference and which may
make the new Poincare ministry in
France see that ultimately it cannot
pursue a single-handed policy in han
ding German reparations.
This move is the appointment by
President Harding, subject to the co J.
firmation uf the SetAee, of an Amir
lean representative on the Repara-
tions Commission.
The prediction was made in official
quarters to-day that the step was in
evitable as a consequence of the new
declaration by Premier Poincare that
ference unless it is agreed beforehand
that German reparations will not be
discussed. Coming on top Of the state
ment by Poincare that he thinks the
Allied Supreme Council no longer nee
essary, and that he would insist upon
a literal return to the provisions Of
the Versailles Treaty, the belief pre-
walls that the French Premier will re-
invest the Reparations Commission
with the moral influence and impor-
tance which it lost when the Supreme
Council took the matter of reparations
out of the hands of the commission, a
move which many French and British
critics have ever since characterized
as "illegal" in the sense that 1t vio-
lated the Versailles Treaty.
The truth Is the Supreme Council
was waiting for America to ratify the
Versailles Treaty not wanting to see
the Reparations Commission have too
much power. On the other hand, the
United states now has ratified its own
treaty with Germany, which embraces
the economic and reparation clauses
of the Versailles Treaty and entities
