Famous and Much Disguised
Dry Agents Severed From
U. s. Payroll

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Izzy
Einstein and Moe Smith, the noted
New York prohibition agents, were
handed their blue envelopes yes
terday. At midnight Sunday their
services with the prohibition en-
forcement unit of New York will
terminate, as will those of 1853
other agents in the Second district.
Icy and Moe Blue
About 40 of them will be taken
back later, but Izzy and Moe are
afraid they will be overlooked when
They fear they have been too eff
and have in consequence made sl-
periors jealous.
Certainly IZzy and Moe knew how
to get their names in the papers.
For five years they roamed about
New York and the country at large
exercising their vivid powers of
Imagination and description and EN-
PERTAINING newspaper reporters with
tales of superior cunning and mys-
terry.
Izzy claimed to have more than
100 DISCUSSES and to have used
them. He is about five feet high
and has broad face that Is ap.
parently beyond possibilities of dis.
guise, ebut the newspapers were con-
tinually telling how he and Moe,
dressed up as icemen, plumbers,
Iongshorennen, bricklayers, street.
car employees, truckmen, laborers,
and the like had fooled saloonkeep-
ers and bartenders into breaking the
law.
In the first two or three years of
prohibition, when New York saloons
ran wide open, Ivy and Moe were
In their heyday. With the assist
ance OF Peter Reager, they made al

Former D. c. Man, Slayer,
Faces Prison for ctiticising
Judges and Courts

KARLSRUHE, Germany, Nov.
14.-Pardoned after serving sew
enteen years in prison, Karl Hau,
former Washington, D. c., lawyer
and university professor, today
faced re-arrest to serve out the re-
manning seven months Of his sem
tence. The warrant, has been
issued by the ministry of justice
of Baden.
Hau was serving sentence for
the murder of his mother-in-law
twenty years ago. The reason ad-
vanced for the extraordinary act
of the officials in ordering him re-
arrested is the publication of a
book by Hau since his release, de-
picting his trial and facts sur
rounding his Imprisonment. Ju-
dicial and prison officials are UNI
mercifully criticized in the volume.
Trial Was Sensational
Hau was convicted of murder in
1906 on feircumstantial evidence.
The trial was sensational. Hau was
sentenced to death under the heads.
mans axe, but the death penalty
was committed to life Imprisonment.
Following the revolution in Ger
many, Hau's sentence was reduced
to twenty years. In September.
1924, however, before expiration of
this term, he was released from
prison.
Hau. was graduated from George
Washington University and was
formerly professor of Roman law at
the university and a member Of the
bar of the District of Columbia. He
was born in Germany and received
his early education here.

To Clear Cornett
According to Divisional Chief

being made by the United States
District Attorney in Baltimore to
clear Cornett's name OF the speed
charge. and then proceed against
the State police for obstructing a

Cornett, attached to the Wash

Samakow occupied.
The pursued fell into better luck
than the dry agents. Samakow paid
his tine and went along. Cornett
had no money, nor had the other
agents.
Their protestations that the law
permltIed them to exceed the speed
limit had no effect on the judge.
Spends Night In Station
Cornett alone was charged, and
held. He spent the night in the
State police sub,station, and on the
following day, Chief Murphy and
other officials drove up with bitter
words upon their lips.
They used these bitter words on
the judge, and pointed out to him
ruling Of the State Attorney Cen
eral, absolving Federal agents of
speed charges when circumstances
warranted violation Of the speed
laws.
The Judge was almost convinced,
and released his prisoner in the
custody OF the Federal officials,
waving payment Of the fine.
This half-sat isfaction did not
satisfy Mr.. Murphy, for. he im-
nnediately brought the case to the
proper authorities In Baltimore, and
asked Tor d showdown, and in or

learned today.
The new mission will sail as

Negotiations for the settlement
of the French debt to the, United
States will proceed upon a new
basis, which has been outlined in
conversations between Premier
Painleve and Ambassador Herrick.
Expect Better Terms
Although as yet no official indica-
ton has been given of the outline
Of the new French proposals on the
American debt question. there is no
doubt that French public opinion ex-
pects that the United States to give
better, terms than those proposed co

to Italy lead the French to expect
similar concessions. it being held
that France has as just a claim for
leniency as Italy.

Mrs. Malta gave birth to her

and her husband, who keep q

Immediately, the gir1-wife said.
PappaIardo began annoying her
and became increasingly insistent
with his attentions. The night be-
fore the killing, she said, he came
into her room at the hotel and she
had to flee from him. The next
morning he was breaking in when
she ran into another room, got a
pistol, and shot him.

women's organizations in practically
