CHINESE DENY PLEA
OF RUSSIAN SLAYER
First White Man. to Be Given
Death Sentence in Native Court
Heavily Chained.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HARDIN, Manchuria, February 30.
A Chinese court has denied the
appeal of Alexis korniIoff. Russian
desperado, and reafiirmed the death
sentence passed last November. Kor-
niloff was the first white man ever
sentenced to death in Chinese court.
Fears that Korniloff would attempt
to escape or that his friends would
try to rescue him caused the authori-
ties to take extra precautions when
he was brought into the court today.
He was chained hand and foot.
The court informed the defendant
that his only recourse was an appeal
to the senate at Peking. This appeal
must be made within ten days. Kor-
niloff's friends hope to have his SEN
tence commuted to life Imprisonment
owing to the general amnesty pro-
claimed by President Tsao Kun on
account of the Chinese new year.
Korniloff was convicted of escap-
ing from the courtroom during Il pre-
vious trial, Staying Chinese con-
stable and two secret service agents
and attempting the murder of two
other police officials.

Firmness In Hog
Market Surprises

The large run of hogs to market
during the past two months indi-
Gates a short supply later in the
winter and during the spring, and
the probability of materially higher
prices for pork products now going
INTO storage, says the United States
Department of Agriculture. 1t is
considered that the competition for
the chance to share in this advance
is holding hog prices at levels ma
terially higher than would have
prevailed were there not this ex-
pcetation of short supplies to come.
''ln face of the largest marketing
of hogs on record for similar per
iod dming the first three weeks of
December, declares c. l.. Harlan,
livestock statistician for the De-
partment of Agriculture, "the hog
market has given every evidence Of
underlying strength. There is a
distinct note of optimism in aack.
ing and distributing circles in con-
tract with the pessimism that pre-
vailed last year. Wholesale and re.
tai distributors, instead of follow
ing the hand ito mouth policy of
last year seem to be willing TO

Only one change in football rules
seems probable and that is merely
to return of Il regulation in effect
