DENY BEN FRANKLIN'S
LIGHTNING ROD FAME
Germans Declare Divish Antedated
American Inventor in Discoy-
cry of Conductor.

BY the Associa ted Press.
BERLIN, March 25.-German sa
wants are trying to rob Benjamin
Franklin of the honor of inventing
the lightning rod. They say it was
a German who did it. Their claim is
supported by writer in the Deutsche
Allegemeine Zeitung
Since Franklin conducted electricity
into Leyden Jar and did not lead il
into the earth, the Germans assert
that he did not have a lightning rod
at all. According to German physi-
cists. Johann Heinrich Winkeler OF
Leipzig dealt with the question OF
lightning conductors in his book. de
Avertendi Fulminis Artificio," which
appeared in 1853, and which suggest
ed to DR.. p. Divish the idea of build
ing a lightning conductor the same
year. Franklin, according to these
physicists. conducted his kite expert
ment in 1852 and built his lightning
rod eight years later.
German Contention.
The German contention that Divish
antedated Franklin in his discovery
is based upon a letter which Leon
hard Euler, A prominent nathenati-
clan. wrote to Il German princess in
January, 1854. In this letter Euler
said:
'"The Morayian eccIesiastic nr
throughout all Of last summer he
caught lightning in his district by n
machine built on the principles OF
electricity. Some people who had
come through his place guarantee
| that this is true"

THREE LANDS TO PAY
TRIBUTE TO BYRON
England, Italy and Greece Will
Join in Honoring Memory Of
Georgian Poet.

BY the Associa ted Press.
LONDON, March 25.-En gland will
seek to atone for century's neglect
of one of the misunderstood and un-
derestimated men of the Georgian
period by national observance of the
Tooth anniversary Of the death of
Lord Byron, which occurs on April 10.
The celebrations, undertaken by the
Byron Society and the Poets Club,
will take the form of a public dinner,
at which literary lights of the pres
ent day will pay tribute to the genius
and work of this poet, commemo-
rative services in various churches
and publication of new edition of
his complete works.
The observance will not be confined
to the land of his birth, but will also
extend to Italy, where he spent most
of his self-infiicted exile, and Greece,
where he sacrificed his life in the
cause of Greek independence.
of the faculty OF the University of
Athens has been appointed by the
government to arrange for public
ceremony and publication of new
translations of his works. The head
master of Harrow and the vice chan
cellor of Cambridge, both of which
institutions Byron attended. have been
made honorary members of the Athens
University faculty. The site of the
Byron lived will be purchased and
transformed into park and a column
erected there to his memory.
In Italy services will be held in the
leading universities and a tablet un-
veiled in his honor at Bologna.

DISARMA MENT
 OF AGRARIANS
 BEGUNN MEXICO
Special Court Inquiry Continues Investiga-
 ton Of EEans Case
tBy Associated Press ]

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 5.-Federal forces. under General Roberto Cruz, chief of military operations in the state of Puebla, today began the disarma- ment of volunteer and agrarian forces raised during the .recent revolution. The disarmament was begun in the district of San Martin, at Texmelucan, where Mrs. Rosalie Evans, American-born widow of British subject, was killed and robbed by unidentified persons Sat urday night.
 While the disarmament campaign, begun upon special orders from Pres ident Obregon,, is proceeding, special court inquiry continued investigations into charges that agrarian elements with whom Mrs. Evans had% long been at war were responsible for the rob bery and murder These clements have been urging the appropriation of the Evans hacienda for communal lands and an agricultural school.
 Under the general direction of Cosme Zafra Maya, attorney general of Pue- bla; Attorney Miguel Marquez Gam bos, superior court justice, acting as special inquiry judge, and Attorney Francisco Vasduez, special representa-; tive of the department of justice, to- day viewed the scene of the murder. They questioned the hacienda employees as we'll as moreI than 70 agrarians, most ly Indian farm workers, who were ar- rested yesterday at various villages throughout the Huejotzingo district in which the Evans ranch is situated.
 John Strauss, manager of the Evans hacienda, who was wounded when his employer was killed, has declared he was unable to give the number of the assailants. He is said to have identi- fled one as a man living in the vicinity. According to advices from Puebla, where Strauss is being treated at a hospital, he said that the assailants immediately after the shooting made a rush for the money sack containing 2,0O0 pesos, which was to meet a payroll.
