AUSTRIA TO HER FEET
Delegates Decide to Take I'm

Present Regime.

BY Associated Press TO Every Evening
Geneva, Sept. 5.-The negotiations
being undertaken with a view to saw
ing Austria from utter demoralizati ton
as a result OF her financial distress
reached an active stage here today.
Leading delegates to the council and
assembly OF the League of Nations
have been engaged in extensive ex-
changes Of views preliminary to the
hearing Of Chancellor Seipel of Aus
tria by the council OF the league to-
morrow.
These conversations revealed gen.
eral agreement that the first step to
be taken would be to give political
stability TO the present Austrian
regime so that the capital that might
be invested in the enterprise Of re-es-
tablishing Austria's economic machine
would not be at the mercy Of revolu-
ton or reaction.
Doctor Seipel said to the cor
respondent today:
Like Dante of old, I am knocking
from door to door for bread and like
Dante I am finding the taste very
bitter"
Augustin Edwards, of Chile, was

o'clock last night by someone who had
apparently been locked inside the
building or had entered the place TO
rob certain OF the offices located there.
The crash Of the glass could be heard
for several blocks. Tho mischief wac
apparently committed by the person
or persons within the building hurting
a chair through the window. The
sound of the breaking glass wae heard
at the police station just across the
street from the building and Patrol
men Wilkinson and Wadman were I'M
mediately dispatched to make an in
vestiga ton.
No watchman was In the building
at the time and no one was found who
had seen the glass broken. The police
man found the place deserted when
they arrived.
1t is thought that someone Nigh,
have been locked in the buiffing early
in the day and had taken this means
Of liberating themselves. However
there are plenty Of telephones by
which the imprisoned person could
have communicated with the outside
so this theory is not given very much
credance.
The other belief is that thieves haG
entered the building and had beer

the glass window and effected their

said today.
Excavators struggling to release the
46 men in the Argonaut gold mine
today were penetrating what is known
as the "old shaft" of the adjoining
Kennedy gold mine. Working on the
3,600-foot level, this "old shaft" $50
feet long, leads to- the rs feet of quartz

to the Argonaut by the 46 miners re-
vealed today that II would be entirely
possible for them to have caused the
five explosions which workers in the
Kennedy mine reported hearing when
the roar of their own blasts had died
away. 1t was the conviction of many
of the rescue workers that at least
some of the entombed men were alive
and would be saved.
Miners on the job believe that the

London. Sept. 5.-General opinion IN
the best informed quarters in
London today was that the disaster
to the Greek army in Asia Minor was
complete. There seemed little pros
pect that anything could now save It
from total debacle.
The Greek government has appeal
ed TO the powers TO obtain an arnnis-

have virtually driven the Greeks from
the battlefield. and as a result Of in
terchanges among the chancellories
at London, Paris and Rome instruc-
tions have been sent to the Allied
high commissioners OF the three pow
ers in Constantinople to discuss Joint
measures for bringing about a gus
pension OF hostilities.
1t Is hoped that a meeting between
representatives OF the be,iiserents will
be productive OF a speedy cessation
OF fighting.
News Of the successive reverses suf
sfered by the Greeks at the hands Of the
Turkish Nationalists in Asia Minor Is
believed here 70 forecast early evacu-
alton of the entire area by the Greek
army.
Indeed, the evacuation has already
begun. according TO the Daily Mail
which quotes Greek official circles in
London as declaring the army will be
out of the country within three weeks
The newspaper attributes 10 it's Greek
official informant the statement that
the army is worn out with fighting
Many Of the soldiers have been ir
