Mobbing Held Synonymous
 With Klan In NelU Code
Under Index Of ''Ku Klux Prohibited, Referenc
 To Sections Dealing With Lynchings Is Made

the death of the injured person, consti- tute the crime of lynching and any per son who participates in or actively aids or abets such lynching shall, on convic- ton, suffer death or be imprisoned in the periitentiary not less than five years, at the discretion of the jury and any person, who being a member of any such mob and present at any such lynching, shall not actively anticipate in the lynching, shall be deemed guilty of abetting such lynching and on con- viction shall be imprisoned in the peni- territory not less than one year nor more than 21 years, at the discretion of the jury"
 Sheriff Held Liable
 The third section, 4940, is as follows {:
 Any sheriff, deputy sheriff or jailer who negligently or through cowardice allows prisoner to be taken from the jail of his county or to be taken from his custody and put to death by vio- lence, or to receive bodily harm, must, on conviction, be fined not less than $500 nor more than $2,000 and may also be sentenced to hard labor for the county for not more than two years."
 Two of the above sections, 493S and 4940, are found in the 1907 code, while section 1889, which provides that the death penalty may be inflicted upon a member of mob which lynches a per son, is not found in the coresponding chapter of the 1907 code. As will be seen from the above quotations, there is no reference to Ku Klux in the code outside of the index, which contains the citation "Ku Klux prohibited" refer ring student of the code to the sections prohibiting lynching and mobbing.

NOOHShuON RAVA 0SO OHos quizzed concerning the McLendon- Glasgow charges, it was reported in of ficial circles.
 Meanwhile, the city hall is waiting on the completion of the audit and wondering what the next development in the financial tangle will be.
 Ward In Hot Reply
 George Ward, former mayor, whose suggestions for expediting the city audit were spurned by President McLendon Monday, sent a hot reply to the city hall Tuesday, demanding to know "who really objects to speeding up this audit?"
 Declaring that F. Hopkinson Smith, in charge of the audit, is out of the city, Ward said it would be interesting to know "just who it is that does not approve of the suggestion I made. He said the city's books were admittedly in balance, but that the public wants to know quickly whether their improve ment assessments have been credited" /"
 McLendon declined to answer Wards latest statement, saying the audit now in progress is checking all payments as well as the book records and that he has confidence that MT. Smith will get at the bottom of things.

In the index to the code, among the sub jects listed there is one which reads "Ku Klux prohibited" with a citation to sections 1888, 4940 of the code, deal ing with lynching and mobbing.
 The chapter of the code referred to is headed "Lynching, mobs, white cap ping, etc." It contains three sections, one of which, section 494S, is entitled Abusing or beating accused person or lynching," The section is as follows:

HerriOt And Stressemann Expect Report On Ruhr
 Agreement Today
By CHARLES M. MCANN By Leased Wire to Age-Heraidl

LONDON, Aug. 12.-With the ex- peetation that an agreement on the evacuation of the Ruhr will be reached by Friday, the international conference is now definitely in sight of success ful conclusion of it's labors.
 The delegates are talking of finish ing their work by Thursday, but it ap- pears virtually impossible for them to conclude before Friday. on account of the many last-minute details that must be arranged.
 Premier Herriot of France and For eign Minister Stresemann of Germany, after conferences Tuesday, said they hoped there would be something to re- port Wednesday on the Franco-Ger- man arrangement for the future status of the Ruhr valley.
 Another Meeting Likely
 Probably another. allied meeting will be necessary" Premier Masdonald said, when asked about the outlook. "Then we will have a full plenary meeting with the Germans present. I hope this will conclude our business"
 An agreement on the Ruhr is antici- pated by Thursday, enabling the French and Germans to sign protocol by Fri day.
 Some of the German delegation will behind after the conference ad- journs to negotiate with British and American bankers on the loan to Ger many.
 The United States, which has been a dominant factor in this conference, is preparing now to take an equally prominent part in the next Allied meet ing--the gathering in Paris which will allocate the initial payments to be made by Germany under the Dawes plan. Ambassador Kellogg, at Tues day's plenary meeting of the allies, an- that the United States desired to be represented at this conference.
 America Interested
 Kellogg pointed out that the Dawes included all payments which Germany made to any of her creditors and that America was interested, there fore, because of the costs of the army

 This program will be carried out daily and at the stipulated time, fatigue call is generally given to short school and, then the men are permitted to indulge in anything they wish. At retreat, when retreat is called; the men are allowed to leave the camp and do not have to return until taps sounds at Il o'clock.
 Swimming, baseball, polo, moving pictures, libraries and boxing are prov ing to be the most popular pastimes at present. Capt. Shorty Wren, of Jack sonville, Ala, athletic director of the camp, has mapped out an excellent ath- letic program for the troops and this will be put into effect immediately, of ficers state.
 To Present Cup
 The engraved silver loving cup, which is annually presented to the best all- around company in the camp, will be awarded on q different plan this year. Heretofore the cup has been presented to the company putting up the best ex- hibition drill at competitive drill, which was staged at the last day of the camp. The plan this year is giving the company the cup which makes the best showing during the entire eneampment.
 The Alabama regiment, which pa raded to the drill ground for the regur lar morning training, drew much com ment from regular army officers who stood in the stands watching them. Capt. Robert Joerg, of Gadsden, Ala, stated that for the length of training and garrison drilling in which the troops had participated, they are unusually well organized
 The Mobile troops were the last to arrive and establish quarters. They are under the command of Capt. J. T. Moore, Under Captain Moore is the Thirty-frst signal company and the headquarters company of the Thirty first division. The headquarters com pany is known the south over as the Mobile Rifles. They have been organ ized only for a short period, but Cap tain Moore stated that he could not wish for a better or healthier detail during the long trip from Mobile and, the nasty arrangements of the tents and meals. Captain Moore said there had not been one single case of illness, in fact, that only sickness in the entire camp is not enough to be reported to the medical officer.

one of these officers is B World war veteran, and served his time in France, therefore the guards will receive in- strgctions from experienced army mon.
 The Montgomery troops, under the command of, Captain Paul B. Fuller, are still conceded to be one of the best organized attachments in the camp. 7Captain Fuller and his non-commis- stoned officers held a conference early Tuesday afternoon and planned the drill program for tomorrow. This will be made daily event he states, and thus the men will be brought in closer contact with their superior officers.

meals. The authority of Austin is not disputed, and even the Anniston Rotary club asked him to speak to them on this subject. He handles them a short talk oI the merits of good cooking, and was very enthusiastically received by the Rotarians.
 The Mobile troops will take up their regular signal work tomorrow morning under the direction of First Lieuten- ant Thornton of the regular army.
 It was announced today that, due to the shortage of regular instructions, the men would have to undergo the training under the instructions of the state guard officers. Practically every

 What did Richard Loeb say when he was told the glasses found near the Franks boys body belonged to Nathan F. Leopold, Jr.?" Grove asked.
 "He said, my God; is that true" i" Cuneo answered.
 Grove was attempting to establish that the actions of the youths, after they had confessed, were normal and natural in every respect.
 Detective Sergeant O'Malley, at- tached to the states attorneys office, was the next witness. He said that both boys had exhibited fear after they learned that the state had obtained com plete evidence connecting them with the murder of Franks.
 Then came D. W. Putkemmer, pro- lessor of law at the University of Chi cago, who taught Leopold there. The in classes four times a week and that he occasionally had met him outside the classroom.
 SBriIliancy Is Lauded
 Will you give us your opinion of Leopold, from your observations of his conduct" the prosecutor asked.
 "I regarded him as the best student in the class. I considered him unusually brilliant and I did not regard him as any different from the rest of the young men, in any other respect" the witness answered. 5e
 1.-The only way in which he differed from the rest was that he was a little smarter than the other students ?" Grove asked.
 Precisely" answered the professor. "He had an unsual intellect"
 What do you think of his judgment on matters of law, as expressed in his argument in your class?"
 He always seemed to me to be able to gather up all the threads and present a clear logical argument"
 Leon Mandel, prosperous young mer- chant, who previously had testified that Leopold collOborated with him in trans lating the obscene writings of a fif- teenth century Italian author, Pietro Aretino, again took the stand.
 Did you ever notice anything pecu- liar about Leopold?" Grove asked.
 No, he always impressed me as be- ing able to think and act clearly" the witness answered.
 Grove then questioned Mandel about a weekend trip he, Leopold, and others had taken to Iowa City to attend a football game.
 Did you notice anything unusual about him on that trip?" Grove asked.
 Nothing except that he was very drunk" the witness said.
 pr. Patrick followed Mandel. He de- scribed how he had talked to Loeb and Leopold after their confession and how he had watched them for several days. He was the last witness of the day.
 pr. Patrick's direct and cross-exam nation probably will consume much of the session Wednesday, Grove said. He expects to put four other physicians on the stand and a number of lay wit nesses. perhaps 40, as well.
