action does not involve an impeach-
able offense
Article 13, charging that the exec

litical friends and supporters to lu-
crative positions and places on the

definite and lacking specific evidence.
No names of any such employees were
given, it was pointed out.
Article ?, alleging that Gov. Wal
tons personal chauffeur was on the
health department pay roll, was de-
clared to be q duplication of article
IL. and should be stricken from the
allegation against the governor to
prevent trial twice. on the same
charge. the counsel said.
There are no statutory grounds for
removal of the chief executive from

U. S. AWAITS PARLEY BID.
Must Have Definite knowledge of
French Conditions.

In the absence of a definite under
standing of the allied reparations
formula being worked. out. between
London and Paris, American officials
still are unable to determine whether
the invitation for American participa-
tion in an expert investigation will be
found acceptable.
Until there are further official adviceS
the United States is continuing the role
of interested observer, and is main
tanning hope that the restrictions pro-
posed by France may not in the end
prove of such a character as to render
American aid in the inquiry futile.
No communication relating to the
present negotiations between Great
Britain and France has been dispatch
ed by the American government to
either the London or Paris foreign
office since the exchange of views al
most three weeks ago between Secre-
tary Hughes and Foreign Secretary
CurZon.
The only statement of the French
attitude so far received through Off

original French reply of more than
week ago to the first British commu-
nication proposing the expert COM

BERLIN. November 2.-The main
outlines Of the agreement which the
Krupps signed Thursday with the
French and Belgian engineering COM
mission, and which is the model for a
general agreement with the Ruhr
Mine Owners Association, which is
expected Immediately. indicates that
the French have agreed to accept
90 per cent of the total coal tax ac-
cumulated since the start of the Ruhr
incaSion- thus giving up sixty mil
lion dollars of the seventy-five mill
lions they claim are due.
OF the remaining fifteen millions, 10
per cent must be paid Immediately,
whereupon the firms may resume work
and export. The future coal tax will
be 10 francs per ton and the future
delivery of reparations coal from 16 to
Is per cent of the total production. The
firms will finance their own rtparationS
coal deliveries until April, after which
time the reich will repay them.
France loses all the reparations coal
which she would have received during
the Ruhr conflict except what she her
self has collected during that period.
These immediate results for France
will pay only small portion of the
cost of French military operations. The
agreements will make possible speedy
employment of some foursfifths of the
Ruhr population. but in view of bad
transportation and Nthe general disor-
ganization. the situation must remain
critical for long time.

ters here over the prospects for the
early organization and meeting of a
special reparation committee. on which
an American economic expert will sit.
In the exchange of views which is pro-
ceeding between London and Paris re-
specting the terminology of the colIec-
tive allied invitation to the United
States. Premier Poincare, it is learned
shows a perceptible desire to soften
some of the restrictions he has already
set forth
1t is regarded as significant that
neither in his note replying to the
British communication regarding the
invitation to the United States nor
in his speech at Nevers yesterday, as
wired here, do the sharply restrictive
conditions enunciated in his Sunday
address appear.
British officials, therefore, are more
sanguine than ever that the proposed
committee of experts will enjoy suf-
ficient scope and freedom to impart
definite weight and authority to it's
decision. These officials profess to see
the eventual possibility of a world
conference on Europes economic plight
as an outgrowth of the forthcoming
subsidiary conference of experts.
Anxiety UnJustided.
The British authorities hold that the
reasonable and accommodating tone
of the French premier, both in his
notes and in his conversation with the
British ambassador in Paris, does not
justify the anxiety which appears
to be felt in Washington over the
scope and jurisdiction of the pro-
posed committee.
Information received here from diplo-
matte channels in Washington is to
the effect that neither President Cool
idge nor Secretary of State Hughes
has yet considered any particular
man as American member of the pro-
posed committee.

Russo Polish relations are not trou-

abroad. The Polish government is
aware that soviet troops are carry
ing out maneuvers in the vicinity of
the Polish frontier. but it does not be-

intervention in favor of the Saxon
communists, and is not alarmed by
them
soviet delegate here has been nego-
tiating for an amicable arrangement
for the transit of merchandise and
ammunition exported from Russia
through Poland. which is regarded as
sufficient to disprove the reports that
Moscow intends to issue an ultimatum
demanding the right to send Russian
troops through Poland.
