The Nation has many political ills
and needs a physician. In some Of the
daily newspapers is seen the portrait
of DR.. Royal S. Copeland, who was
Commissioner of Health in New
York City for several years and was
elected U. S. Senator from New York
last November on a wet platform,
altho he is a trustee of a Methodist
Church in New York City. He would
make a royal candidate for Vice
President with William G. McAdoo at
the head next year. His presiding
over the U. S. Senate would have a
healthful benefit on the Senators. Nc
Adoo and Copeland would sweep the
country.

THREE ROBBERS BEAT
UP BANK TELLER
Baltimore Clerk Doing Back
work Alone When Three
Thieves Enter

Baltimore, Md.-Three robbers en-
tered the branch Of the Baltimore
Trust Company, Baltimore and Com
merce streets, before banking hours
IN the morning, beat Russell K. For
syth, paying teller, into insensibility
and escaped with $4,000 in bills.
forsyth was alone in the bank at
the time. He was found a few mo-
ments later by the janitor lying half
In and half out Of the open vault.
When he was able to talk, Forsyth
said that he had come to the bank
early to get through press of work
and had opened the vault. One of the
robbers, he said, obtained admittance
by ringing the bell and asking for a
statement Of the account of a suppos-
ed customer. He invited the stranger
in and did not observe that two other
men followed the first man inside.
He was ordered to throw up his
hands, and facing a pistol, backed
across the lobby to the open door of
the vault. There the robbers seized
the packet Of bills. Frightened by the
sound of the elevator which the iani-
tor started at that moment, one of the
robbers struck Forsyth on the head
with the butt OF the revolver.

TURKS CLUBBING ON
U. S. WAR CLAIMS
Ottoman Empire Claims Agree
ment With Pact Signers Is
Cause For Refusal

Lausanne.-In connection with the
American demand for recognition of
the claims of American companies
and individuals in consequence of war
damages, the Turkish spokesman
here said that Turkey and the allied
powers in their treaty mutually re-
nounced all claims for losses suffer
ed during the war by governments or
their nationals.
While the American case was some
what different, he added, the Turks
made the point that Turkey under the
allied treaty abandoned her right to
S5,OO0,000 deposited during the war in
Berlin and Vienna by the German and
Austro-Hungarian governments as a
loan to Turkey to provide a cover for
the first issues of Ottoman paper cur
rency. These sums have been trans
ferred to the allies by Germany and
Austria in accordance with the trea-
ties Of Versailles and st. German.
The spokesman remarked that the
American representatives at Lau-
same had imposed reservations in
sisting on the right Of the United
States to have a voice in the disposi-
ton of this sum as one of the powers
associated with the allies in the war,
and hence the United States in princi.
pie benefited.
The question of damages to Ameri-
cans, it was added, remained one Of
the disputed topics in the Lausanne
treaty negotiations, the Americans
holding out for arbitration.
The Turks admit that the Turks
suffered no losses from the United
States during the war The Turks
seem to fear that large claims may be
made against them which they will
be unable to meet.

TWO Passenger Trains on the Ham
bure-Munich Railroad Collide, Caus,
Ing the Death Of over One
Hundred Persons.

Berlin. Germany.-A great disaster
occurred at the Kreiensen station, at
the junction of the Hanover and Cas-.
sci line, caused by a collision between
the Hamburg Munich express and a
train standing at the station. Up to
o'clock A bodies had been recov.
cred from the wreckage and the es-
timated number of killed is 100, while
34 injured are being cared for in the
hospital at Goettingen.
Identification Of the killed is ex.
tremely difficult and in some cases
impossible, owing to their mangled
condition. The collision is attributed
to the inability of the driver Of the
express to see the signals because OF
grit which had been blown into his
eyes. The crash was terrific and
most Of the cars were scattered and
piled on top of one another.
Those who were killed outright suf-
fered the happiest fate, for many
others were crushed down in the
wrechage and endured agonies before
the end came. Many of those rescued
also suffered prolonged tortures be-
fore they were eXtricated.
