MORE NANNY-GOATS THAN
HOLSTEINS AT FAIR, SIR

The Holsteins, in past years
the leading breed at the an
ual fair, are in the minority
this year. In fact there are
more nanny-gOats on the
grounds than HOlsteins, Sup
erintendent Michael Wander
der Griend declares.
Jerseys lead this year, with
Guernseys next. But all of
the breeds shown are real
quality animals, the finest to
be seen in the country.
The stock exhibit is one of
the best yet seen here.

IRISH TREATY
 R AT IF |CAT|ON
 STILL ASSURED
Immediate General Election Certain; Advises King to
 Dissolve Parliament
BONAR LAW IN POWER
Intense Curiosity Aroused Everywhere on Speech of
 Lloyd George Today

LONDON, Oct. 20.-(By the Associa- ted Press)-In the still highly specu- lative political situation tonight, only two facts stood out as definite-that there will be almost immediately a general election and that parliament tary ratification of the Irish lonstitu- ton is safely assured.
 Andrew Bonar Law, who is to lead the new government which will take the place of that of Lloyd George in message to an evening newspaper confirmed his intention to advise King George to immediately dissolve parli- ament and added that this fact would constitution. He did not indicate how ever, whether the present parliament would re-assemble according to sched- ule on November IA to deal with the Irish question, or whether general cleo tions would be held immediately and the Irish legislation left to the new parliaments Either plan would be practical the only point being that rat ification of the Irish treaty must be effected before December 6. Which ever course is adoupte6, Irish legisla- tion is quiet safe from any attempt to frustrate an Irish settlement.
 Mir. Lloyd George in a message sent to William Cosgrave, president of the Dali Eireann, has removed any fear of opposition from him in his new position as elader of the opposition in parliament. The Marquis of Salisbury on behalf of the die hard" has made a similar promise, so there is no jarty in the house of commons that is likely to offer any hindrance to the carrying of the Irish treaty idto effect.
 The retiring premier left today for Leeds with his sword in his hand, as he asserted in a short address at the St. Pancras station, prior to his de parture. Although he delivered five addresses from the rear of his car on the way to Leeds, he has left until to- morrow's speech in Leeds any revelT ation of what his tactics will be.

CALLING OF CONFERENCE
 I ] DEAL WITH
 PAYMENT ISSUE
Power to Veto Expenditures and Regulate Taxation Is
 Part of Plan
DIFFERS FROM BRITISH
Proposal Submitted to Rep arations Committee Is
 Reply to British

PARIS, Oct 20.-(By the Associat- ed Press) and rigid con- trol of all German finances, power to veto expenditures and regulate taxa ton and authority to dictate the ar engagements of the budgets of ths va riOus German states are among the chief proposals contained in the plan of the French government for a solu- tion of Germanys financial difficulties and for placing that country in a po- sition to meet her reparations pay ments.
 The plan. was submitted to the rep arations commission tonight by Louis Barthou, the French representative on the commission and discussion nf the project will begin tomorrow. AL though not mentioned in the official summary, M. Barthou's plan cOnten- plates meeting of the leading busi- ness men of the world to determine Germany's capacity to pay and to con slider the question of inter-alliei debts
 The plan, in effect, is a reply to the British separations project recently placed before the commission by Sir John Bradbury. It differs radically from the British point of view. NJ. Barthou urges the calling of a Brus- sells conference to deal with a broad reparations settlement and allied debts ard the question of German pay ments in 1923 and 1924. France would limit the powers of the reparations commission to the application of new guarantees and reforms for Germany leaving the more comprehensive is. sues to an international meeting.
 The proposition would gradually put Germany on a gold basis, beginning with an issue of gold treasury secUri- ties. M Barthou would have Ger many pay her outstanding obligations in paper currency. and he calculates that then Germany's paper circulation would be 510,OO0 900 900 marks. which at the present rate of exchange are worth less than the eichbank gold reserve.
 The moment has come. according to NJ. BarthOu, when the allies must take steps or be faced by Germany pro- claimed before the world as a ruined nation, despite the fact that her ac- tual capital is intact.
 We don't accept the contention that Germany is totally incapable of paying" says M. Barthou in his plan. Despite Germany's enormous budget dpciSiOnS she retains tremendous re- sources and great strength to contin-

Arizona 'Middy' Testifies on Own Behalf on Charge of
 Hazing; Others Involved

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 20.-That the haz- ing investigation now under way at the naval academy is likely to assume a much wider range, involving other mid shipmen of the senior class, was indi- cated by the trend of testimony given before the naval court martial when it resumed its sessions today in the trial of Bruce H. Robinson, of Chandler, Ariz., whose hazing of William H. Me Gregor, of Bremelton, Wash, member of the fourth class, was alleged to have been of a brutal character.
 Three additional midshipmen, Joe F. Fitzgerald, of New York; Nevett Steele, at large, and Calvin H. Mann. Colorado, all first class, men, were mentioned in today's testimony as hay ing been in Robinson's room while the haZing of McGregor was in progress, and called before the court they de- clined to answer questions on the ground of discrimination.

CHARGE OF MURDER IN
 CASE OF TWINS
State Unable to Prove That Mystery Babies Were Not
 at Present Alive
FATHER UNCONVINCED
Mrs. McNally Falls in Faint as Cheers and Applause
 Follow Verdict

HAMMOND, Ind, Oct. 20.-(By the Associated Press)-Mrs Hazel McNal- ly, declared by her 55 year year old husband to be the mother of doll babies" twins, was freed of a charge of murder this afternoon when Judge Henry c. Cleveland ruled the state had failed to prove the infants are not still alive.
 The 26 year old wife, who has grin ned and giggled through four days of the preliminary hearing while witnes- ses attempted to fasten on her the charge of double murder, collapsed and fell fainting to the floor, as the cheers and applause of 150 women courtroom fans rang in her ears
 By strange paradox of the law, the defense, which maintained the twins born" to Mrs. McNally last December were but inanimate creations of china and straw dressed in baby clothes, won it's victory because the state was un able to prove that the mystery babies human beings with actual flesh and blood
 The missing corpus delicitlawyers pharesology for the "body of the crime"-proved stumbling block to the state and because of it the mystery of the McNally twins whether they ever existed, whether they were only dressed up dolls or whether as the state contended, they were real babies and then dolls remains unsolved.
 Sustaining the motion of Samuel s. Swartz, or South Bend, attorney for Mrs. McNally for dismissal of the charge, Judge Cleveland ruled that all legal decisions maintained that some proof that dead body actually exist ed, that it came to it's death by vio- lence and thar the person charged with the crime was in some way connected with it's commission was necessary be- fore charge of murder could be sup ported.
 Hundreds of women and a few men pushed and struggled up the dark

 N. ]. SHAVING
Indictment Reported Returned in Mystery Case; Hall
 House Under Guard

NEW BRUNSWICK, Oct. 20. - On the heels of unconfirmed reports that the grand jury of Somerset county today had returned an indictment in the Hall-Mills murder mystery, the investigation was given a sensational twist tonight when it was officially learned that an eye witness to the double shooting, woman of reputa- ble character in New Brunswick, had been discovered
 The interjection of this new phase in the already greatly complicated case, was said to have been responsi- ble for the sudden turn today in the activity of Prosecutor AZariah Beck man, who appeared before the grand jury at Someryille
 The only handicap now retarding the prosecutor in bringing the situa- ton to climax. was said to be the problem of positive Identification b, the newly found witness. as more than one person is said ohave taken part in the murders
 Neither MT. Beekman nor any other court officials at the county seat in Somerville could be induced to give the slightest enlightenment on the puzzling attitude of all concerned in the inquiry.
 Responsibility for the next move. which is expected to be of a sensa- tional character, was said now to be squarely up to Prosecutor Beekman, who is moving cautiously in his ap- parent desire to De sure of his ground.
 The home of Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall, widow of the slain rector. is wig ilantly guarded by state troopers and all attempts to communicate with the house by telephone have been unsuc- cessful.
 Prosecutor Beekman urged even to intimate if the grand jury had taken up the murder mystery today. refused the slightest information, asserting that all grand jury proceedings are absolutely secret and that any rep' supposedly coming from his office were unauthorized. He said, however. that satisfactory progress was being made in the investigation.
 For the first time since the bodies Of the rector and his choir singer were discovered, Prosecutor Beekman ano County Detective George Totten today permitted newspaper men to see the clothing both wore when they were killed
 Reports that the rector's coat had been ripped up the back were found to be false, there being only two small holes in the back of the coat between the shoulders which may have been caused by dragging the body to the

 Various Explanations
INVESTIGATION IS HELD
Preliminary Inquiry Fails to Determine Cause; Mine
 Completely Wrecked

MCURTAINX. Okla, Oct. 20.-The death toll from the explosion today in the Progressive Coal company's mine number 2, near here. was increased to nine late tonight with the finding of the body of Burl Sprouse who had been listed as missing. The body was in a pool of water in the lowest level of the mine where apparently the min erd had retreated to escape the dead ly gases.
 MCURTAIN, Okla, Oct. 20.-With eight dead and one additional miner missing, as the result of a gas ex- plosion which wrecked mine number 2 of the Progressive Coal company near here today, steps were underway tonight by federal and state officials for a thorough investigation of the causes Of the blast.
 Preliminary investigation had not shown the cause of the explosion but it is believed that a shot fired by one of the 13 men in the mine to loosen the coal, caused the blast
 Another explanation given is that the gas became ignited from a lamp worn by Everett Seaton, fire boss of the mine, who was killed by the eX- plosion.
 Burt Sprouse. miner believed to have been in the mines att the time Of the explosion. is missing and search for his body was being continued to- night. If SprOuse's body is recovered it will bring the death list to nine as company officials and miners declare that there is no possible chance for him to have escaped. The last six victims were found dead several hours after the blast. as they were deeper in the slope. Rescue parties reached the entombed men shortly after the blast as the mine is shallow.
 The wrecked mine was slope, built through an abandoned strip pit in which coal was found about 500 feet from the opening. The explosion tore down the interior for a distance of nearly 100 yards. Fire did not fol- low the blast.
