 Condition

New Haven, July 6.--The condition | Of County Sheriff Thomas l.. Reilly

 after q consultation of physicians. There was some hope of rally but
 the fact that the patient was in a very serious state was emphasized.
 The illness of Sheriff Reilly which
 has reached a stage of gravity in q
 remarkably short time followed an
 injury caused by a fall. A general
 breakup in his health followed an at
 tack of what was at first thought to
 be iniiammatory rheumatism in his injured leg. This produced conditions which baffled the physicians.

His first year out of school was spent as an assistant to the town clerk, after which he worked as reporter on the Hartford Sunday Globe.

Butler X Co. as bookkeeper. He gave Up this position to become Aeriden correspondent for the New Haven Union. Later he became con- nected with the Meriden Penny Press and with the Meriden Republican.
 He remained with the last name.l until 1885 when he en- tered the employ of the New Haven Register. In April, 1886. Francis atwater, Frank Stearns. Lew Allen md Mir Reilly organized the Journal Co. Mr. Reilly was made secretary and city editor.

REPARAT IONS
UNCERTAINTY
FELT
Britain Doubts Success OF
Conference Despite Optim-
ism of ,Premiers
BY LUTHER A. HUSTON,
International News Service.

LONDON, July 10.-Despite the
optimism of Premier Macdonald and
Premier Herriot, official British cir.
cles today were not so certain that
the allied Preparations conference
here next week will be an unquali-
fled success.
Foreign office attaches said they
hoped to have active representation
from the United States instead Of
having Washington represented by
observers.
The extent to which America is
willing to participate in carrying
out the Dawes plan is the outstand-
ing question in the wake OF the
Herriot-MacDonald conference.
Position of United States
The general opinion is that any
effort to induce the United States
to appoint representative to the
Allied Preparations Commission is
likely to fail, but there is strong
hope that the United States will
agree to allow the American agent
for PREPARATIONS payment Ia post
provided for under the Dawes plan)
to sit upon the Preparations COM
mission If the question of Ger
many's default comes up.
Well-informed circles believe that
the agreement reached by Premiers
Macdonald and Herriot for joint
action was to induce the United
States to accept the chief financial
administrative burden of a repara.
tions settlement.
Premier Herriot of France is lie.
garded as winner of a diplomatic
victory in the Paris party through
his success in inducing Macdonald
to agree that the authority of the
allied reparations commission shall
remain inviolate; also, in getting tho
British premier to consent to imnc.
date study of the allied war debt
question and French security.
However, Premier Macdonald Il
entirely satisfied. He believes that
the new Anglo-French entente will
go far toward stabilizing European
conditions.
Press Comment.
The Star in commenting upon the
Paris conference, said:
Premier Herriot scored a point
and in the fullness of time we shall
learn what the concession is to cost
Us. M. Herriot said the Anglo
French entente is stronger than at
any other time since the armistice
But we have an uneasy feeling that
when this entente prospers it is al
the expense Of this country (Eng.
land)"
Foreign office officials maintained
that American participation in the
reparations commission would give
that organization a broader basis
and also enhance the value of the
German reparations bonds which
will be issued later.
German Attendance.
If the British and French cannot
induce the Americans to partici.
pate actively they will have to look
elsewhere. 1t is believed, however,
that Washington will be more ia.
vorable towards participation when
public opinion is better educated
and further details of the settle.
ment are published.
The British foreign office will
not admit that the Germans will
not attend the conference. Off.
Gals said that German attendance
depends upon the conference itself.

IN CHEMICAL
RESEARCH
Compilation of Abstracts Pub
Iished Shows 80 Per Cent Z
of World Total
BY international News Service.

NEW YORK, July 1O.-America
still leads the world in chemical
research, maintaining the supren-
acy which for the first time she
wrested from Germany during the
world war, say officials Of the
American Chemical Society, which
makes public the result Of an in.
Quiry by Doctor E. j. Crane, Of
the Ohio State University.
Attributing to Doctor ]. c. Irvine,
of Scotland, the statement that
"the center Of chemistry has moved
to America" the report points out
that greatness in this field has
been largely q recent development,
only feeble beginnings having been
made at the time of the Declaration
Of Independence, July 4. 1776.
Doctor Crane arrives at his con-.
clusion by a compilation of data
based on chemical abstracts. THE
amount of work." he says, done
in the various countries during any
period of time can be gagged with
considerable accuracy by the num-
Der of abstracts published in
Chemical Abstracts of papers APP
pearing in the journals Of these
countries.
ITO be sure, a citizen Of one
country occasionally publishes in a
| journal of another, but this does
not happen often enough to make
any significant difference except in
the case of a few Of the smaller
countries, as Denmark. which do
not have important chemical jour-
mails of their own 49,.
Abstracts Published.
During the last year, according
to Doctor Crane. 6,014 abstracts, or
32.1 per cent Of the world total,
were published in the United States,
In Germany, 5,064, or q per cent,
were published. In Great Britain,
1850, or 1874 per cent, are recorded,
while France has 2,214, or 11.3 per
cent. The whole number Of alb.
stracts is given as 1876.
| AS might be expected" DE-,
Crane continues, the recovery since
| the war of the more seriously af.
| fected European countries has re-
duced the high percentage lead
maintained by the United States in
| 1917 and 1918. However. the an.
! proximately so per cent gain ina
percentage standing from ell to
81 per cent of totaD in ten years,
with the war over five years ago,
! Is SlgnlIlcant.
British Show Gain.
British chemists have maintained
a steady productivity, with a small
gain in position. Franco and Ger
many have recovered we'll, and
about equally, from their consider
| ably lowered percentages during
the war. Belgium, too, has come
back strong. None of these three
countries, however, has regained its
pre-war position.
THE recovery of Austria and
Russia has been slower Japan is
| gaining in importance as a country
turning out valuable chemical re.
search. The two new countries
| Czechoslovakia and Poland-are
| showing chemical activity, and Ru-
mania and China now deserve q
| place in the list"
Summarizing chemical develop
ment in America, it was recalled
that the Revolutionary period pro.
duced outstanding figures in Joseph
Priestly and Count Rumford.

WOMAN PASSENGER MISSES
DEATH AS PLANE FALLS

NEW MARTINSvILLE, w. Va,
July 10.-After crashing 500 feet to
the ground in an airplane, Miss
Mary Lang, twenty-four years old,
who had paid $40 for the ride, de-
clared she had not received her
moneys worth when the machine
landed in the top Of a tree and was
wrecked. The pilot was seriously
injured. Another pilot took her up
5000 feet and upon landing the sec.
ond time she said she was satisfied.
Miss Lang had taken the air with
Walter c. Matthews, pilot for the
Scott Line Circuit, of Marietta,
Ohio. When 500 feet in the air a
heavy wind tore off one of the
wings from the plane and it crashed
downward. The passenger was un.

EARLY TRADING
/! FEATUREDBY
UTILITIES
Stock Market Opens Strong
With Public Utility and
Rail Shares Leading
BY III. j. DUIZEND,
International News Service Staff
Correspondent,

NEW YORK, July 10.-Although
tavorably impressed by the selection
of John w. Davis as the Presi-
Dental candidate of the Demo cratic
party, the stock market showed SYM
toms of WEAKNESS in the forenoon
trading today. Prices lacked the
resilency that had been so marked
in previous sessions.
The immediate reflection Of the
overnight political news was n gen.
orally strong orening with public
utilities and railroads leading.
The remarkable advance in the
public utilities did not show any
signs of abatement, such issues as
American Waterworks, West Penn,
United Railway Investment, Phila-
delphia, Montana Power, Utah Sc
curities and Columbia Gas forging
vigorously ahead.
The majority Of stocks, however,
met with increased realization, on
the initial bulge. Spectators acted
on the theory that with the good
news out and the short interest ma
terially reduced, the market was en-
titled to a setback. Their offerings
caused recessions throughout the
list, but there was no trace of weak
ness in any quarter. In fact, ex-
cellent resistance to pressure was
shown, the readiness with which
selling was absorbed indicating that
q substantial volume of buying or
ders was resting under the market.
This encouraged pool managers to
continue their operations in various
specialties, among which Owens
Bottle, American Express, Dawson
Chemical and Tobacco Products
were especially prominent.
Representative industrial groups,
like the steels, the equipments and
the motors ruled fractionally lower
in the second hour. Oils were some
what mixed, rejecting a combina-
ton of good and bad news such as
a drop in the weekly crude oil pro-
duction, record gasoline stocks at
refineries as per June 1, and further
downward readjustments in the
prices Of crude and refined p :od-
ucts.
With the approach of the noon
hour public utilities took another
squirt forward under a heavy influx
of buying orders. Strength in this
quarter could not fail but give a
stronger tone to the entire list.
