FRENCH OPPOSE GRANT.
Believe Pre-War Concession Should
Stand-Weygand Goes to Syria.

BY the Associa ted Press.
PARIS, April 23.-The sending of
Gen. Weygand to Syria, coupled with
the French governments protest
against the Turkish concession to the
Chester syndicate, is widely COM
mented on by the government and
opposition newspapers as the sign
of serious differences between France
and Turkey. The fact that Turkey
has voted 25.0Oo,o0O Turkish pounds
to support her army, together with
the mobilization of Turkish troops on
the Syrian front, is cited to show that
Turkey is willing to meet the issues
raised by France. such as the Ches-
ter concession.
Up to date Turkey has not replied
to Frances protest against the Ches-
ter concession.
1t is admitted in French official cir
cles that the sending of Gen. Weygand
to Syria to replace Gen. Gouraud is
one means of intimating to the Turks
that they cannot menace the Syrian
frontiers without good cause.
The belief is expressed that France
is anxious not to offend Americans by
seemingly trying to block American
interests in dealing with Turkey
However, the French assert that their
own concessions are valid, and that
the Turks are acting in bad faith by
ceding old French concessions to
Americans. The French say it is not
in the interest of international comfy
to permit the new government in
Turkey to denounce pre-war agree
ments of the former imperial gov
ernment
According to the details of the old
concessions. 1t is said the concession
was promulgated by an imperial de-
cree of May 1. 1914; that work was
begun and that 100000 gold francs
were spent on the work, which was
stopped by Turkish request, due to
the economic crisis created by Ger
many's declaration of war against tho
allies. HASH.

RUM0R D|SPROVED
Children Found in Lake Died
of Natural Causes, Doc

By a staff Correspondent.

CRISFIELD. Md, April 23-After
experiencing the thrilling prospect
that discovery of children's bodies in
of voodoism among some colored resi-
dents, this eastern shore town.
through it's authorities, has settled
down to a conservative view of the
situation. Just two natural deaths.
followed by failure to make the re-
Quired interment, is the accepted
theory of town officials and state
police.
The investigation still is being pur-
sued by Chief of Police James w. Ker-
win. In conjunction with DR.. c. Z.
Collins, town health officer, an ex-
animation of the birth records of
children for the past four years is
being made. and these are to be
checked against the families. as the
only means of identifying the dead
This examination will be completed
by the time of the inquest Wednes-
day afternoon.
Will See Pastor.
Late this afternoon Chief Kerwin
is to have a conference with the COL
ored pastor of a local church, who, he
is Informed, has some information
that there was cleaning up of a
nearby undertaking establishment re-
Gently. Chief Kerwin explained that
the establishment had recently under
gone renovation, and in view Of the
TACT that a number of old rags and
other litter were found In the bag
containing. the bodies of two chill
drn b lad
that the bodies might have been in
the rubbish from the Undertaking es-
tablishment.
Although local fire engine pumped
the pond dry where the bag was
found, there was not disclosed any
addftlonal evidence of murdered chill
dren.
DR.. Collins had the two bodies found
last week taken to the morgue, where
he carefully examined them.
Death had ensued about eight
months before. Minute examination
was made for evidences Of violence,
but none was found. He made a spe-
cial examination to determine whether
the bodies had been embalmed. They
had not. But 1t is not uncommon among
the poorer classes to forego embalm-
ing the dead. DR.. Collins, as we'll as
other officials who have been pursu-
Ing the Investigation, laughed at any
theory or witchcraft having anything
to do with the deaths.
Bodies Not Buried.
Only two theories now are held by
the police and the county health of
ficer. One is that the two children
died natural deaths and their bodies
were kept because Of the inability of
the parents to pay for burial. and the
other is that some one was paid to
inter the bodies and failed to carry
out the contract.
AS there was no evidence of vio-
lence of any kind on the bodies. the
police are centering their efforts on
trying to locate the persons who vio-
lated the health regulations by dis
posing of the bodies In such a man.
