But Boxer Recovered His Memory As Soon As Receipts Were Being Counted.

 In the fourth round Hart landed short right to Dundee's chin. The punch scrambled" Joe's brains. When he walked to his corner a, the end of the round his seconds realized he wasn't right.

French SurpriseI.

By Tho Associated Press,
 Paris, Dec, l2.-There Is no con- cealmont in French official circles of the surprise caused by intimations that the United States cannot allow France more favorable terms in set- tlement of war debts than those granted Great Britain.
 It is recalled that France was neither consulted nor informed when Premier Baldwin went to Washing ton to negotiate the funding of the British debt, and that the French , government learned of the terms on which the debt was settled through the press, although there were cer- tain political considerations involved in British policy at that time that seriously interested France. There fore. the French cannot now under stand why the British government should interest itself in the Franco American settlement.

liam King, an assistant manager, Rior-
dan, said to have been former Army
officer, killed himself.
The shooting occurred as hundreds OF
Atlantans, bent on purchasing Christ
mas goods, were in the crowded aisIes OF
the Stewart Co. and scores OF nearby re-
tall establishments. Intense excitement
prevailed. and q, special detachment OF
police was rushed TO the ScenA
Stewart was the first man shot by
Riordan. The president was on the sec
ond floor, talking with his wife, when
the clerk, whom he had discharged, ap-
preached. Mrs. Stewart said she left
the two men talking. A few minutes
later Riordan shot Stewart through the
neck.
Dashing down the stairs, Riordan en-
countered Turner, who had rushed to
the second floor upon hearing the shoot
ing, and shot him through the abdomen.
The former clerk then began shooting
at Maddox, who ran down the steps.
Rfordan followed, but stopped at the
bottom long enough to fire at Mrs King.
He then shot Maddox three times.
With one bullet remaining in his
pistol, Riordan shot himself through
the head. falling lifeless across Maddox.
Stewart was rushed to a hospital,
where he died on the operating table.
Physicians said Maddox and Turner
probably were wounded fatally.
