wounded. A child was trampled to
death.

Treaty Provisions

Lausanne, May 2S-(By A. P.)-
The informal conversations for re-
vision of the treaties between the
United States and Turkey progress
ed so favorably today that it is be-
lieved formal negotiations can begin
at an early date. The conversations
were between Joseph c. Grew and
Ismet Pasha and the experts Of the
American and Turkish delegations.
their object was to find basis on
which formal negotiations could be
opened with the prospect of fav-
orable result.
Specifically it is the desire of the
two delegations to replace the treaty
Of 1880 by new treaties. 1t is be-
lieved that formal negotiations will
not only prepare the way for a re-
sumption of diplomatic relations,
but will also entail the conclusion
of conventions regulations, among
other subjects. the question of COM
merce between the United States
and Turkey and the position of the
nationals of the one country in the
territory of the other.

charged that the Canadian govern

TREASURY OFFICIALS

Washington. May 2S.-The treas
ury's problem of applying the Su-
preme Courts recent ship liquor de-
cision appeared today to be growing
more involved as deeper study was
given the views expressed to the
State Department by the diplomatic
representatives of England. France,
Spain, Italy and The Netherlands. In
connection with the representations
of France, Ambassador Jusserand
conferred during the day with Sec
rotary Mellon. but there was nothing
to indicate that their conversati ton
had eased the situation.
While those officials who have been
bordering over the regulations to be
promulgated under the court decision
continued to examine laws and legal
precedents, some treasury officials
were giving attention to what was
described as 1.-The disadvantages" that
may accrue to Americas interna-
tional trade If a literal application of
the decision is necessary.
Meanwhile renewed consideration
was being given to the elasticity OF
the provisions in the dry law Civ
ing exemption to medicinal liquor.
The treasury has not decided to en-
ploy those provisions as a way out
of the maze, but, in this connection,
it was limited that the French am
bassador had directed attention to
the laws of his country which re-

For Murder In Death
Lewiston Youth, Mess Boy
On Cutter Ossipee-Trial
Set For Thursday-Surprise
over Acceptance Lesser
Crime - Evidence Outlined
Not Presented To Grand
Jury

Portland. Me. May 2S-Joseph
Geraci, acting petty officer of the
coast guard cutter Ossipee, who was
indicted for murder in connection
with the death Of Anthony Thomas
Ward Of Lewiston. a mess boy on
not less than three nor more than
six years in the state prison at
ThomastOn. by Judge Lauren NJ.
Sanborn, after he had pleaded guilty
to manslaughter in the Superior
Court this afternoon.
Geraci had previously pleaded not
guilty to charge Of murder, and
trial had been set for Thursday. The
disposition made of the case there
fore came as surprise.
County Attorney Clement E. Rob-
inSon explained to the court that he
and the attorney general had agreed
to accept plea to the lesser charge
after James H. Mccain, attorney for
Geraci, had produced evidence not
presented to the grand jury. Attor-
ney Mccain outlined this evidence.
which was to the effect that there
had been bad feeling between the
men as the result of orders given
Ward by Geraci, and that Ward had
made threats, and had several times
attempted to engage in combat with
the acting petty officer.
The attorney said that Ward and
two other men laid in wait for Ger
aci previous to the tussle which re-
suited in Wards death. He explain
ed that Geraci had been peeling an
apple and had put the knife in his
pocket Enclosed when told he must
hurry to the ship. This was offered
as an offset against the contention
that the open knife proved the stab
bling had been premediated. He al
legged the knife was produced to
scare the three men.
Judge Sanborn said: II doubt if
this man was of the sort who would
be likely to entertain murderous de-
signs. Yet. l have no doubt it was
his fault that the victim died. The
sentence is lighter than it would
have been had there been a greater
degree of culpability but a life was
taken and this is matter of adapt
ing the punishment to the situation
as we find It,"
Geraci, who passed his 18th birth
day in the county jail said as he was
led away: "Three years. Well, I'll
take my punishment and that will
make me = free man when am o."
