'Winifred'' Lured to Ab
batoir by CoIored Man
Who Stole Her.

Little Winifred, beloved cow owned
by Charles Leatley, at Forty-eighth
street and Central avenue northeast,
met with foul play today, police dis
covered, when a search for her ended
at the Benning abattoir.
While the members of the little
semi-rural establishment of Mr.. Leaf
ley were mourning the loss of their
gentle bovine companion today, Mr..
Leatley reported Winifred's disap-
pearance to Desk Sergt. Stone at the
eleventh precinct.
Stone sent Policeman G. r. Shoe
maker to Mr. Leatley's residence to
obtain a report on the disappearance.
Shoemaker had powers of deduction.
He quickly connected the proximity of
the abattoir with the place of Wini-
fred's erstwhile happy existence. SO
he visited the abattoir.
There he learned that a colored man
had led a soft-eyed cow to the slaugh-
terhouse at 4 am. today and sold her
flesh and blood hide and horn for .
cents a pound to Ely Ford, the buyer
there.
, shoemaker saw Winifred before he
left the abattoir, but her HE was in
one section ready for tanning and
| much of the rest of her was ready
for steak and pot roast.
Consequently. police are looking for
the colored man. Mr.. Leatley has not
informed the police of his intended
action in the matter. But the little
chickens and other comrades of the
late COW are downcast at the Leatley
establishment today, for Winifred has
met with foul playe

DEACON ADMITS TALK
LED TO ISLANDER SUIT
Church Gossip" Fostered Charges
Which Resulted in Action
for Redress.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, July 16-Smalltown
gossip, church talk" and the age-old
custom of men to support their re-
ligious beliefs when attacked through
others figured in today's hearing of
the $4,000 Slander suit in which AL
bert r. Leland is seeking redress from
z. L. Hartig, deacon in an Oak Park
church.
Hartig, who was a member of a
committee that investigated Leland's
charges against Dr. Carl Case, rector
of the church, and Mrs Leland, was
again on the stand.
William r. Moss, Leland's attorney,
sought to show that his clients aSso-
scition with his stenographer was a
friendly acquaintanceship and not a
iaison, as Hartig's side had tried to
prove. His questions brought up the
small town gossip subject and Hartig
admitted his own suspicious had been
aroused because Leland and the girl
were 80 close together" when the
latter visited her church to address a
young peoples society.
Hartig's testimony revealed that the
charge he had made about Leland s
parentage of a child arose when a
young woman in Leland's employ mar
ried. became a widow and then a
mother a short time later.
There was a runlor that the child
was Ieland's," explained Hartig. He
admitted that had not been proved.
Hartig insisted that when DIR. Case
was named in the Leland divorce the
effect upon the church was what led
him to take part in the investigation.

Improvement in the standard of liv-
ing among miners in the little organ
ized State. During her spectacular
career in West Virginia Mother"
Jones was called to Washington many
times to testify before committees in
Congress.
One Of her most dramatic acts in
West Virginia was the leading Of a
great delegation of miners to the State
capital at Charleston. where she ad.
dressed them from the steps of the
Statehouse. But her work was not
confined to West Virgini alone. AL
ways working with the interest of
her boys" at heart, Mother" Jones
has been in Pennsylvania among the
anthracite workers and in every State
in the Far West where coal is mined.
Her travels have taken her into every
State in the Union.
Respected by Officials.
Respected by Presidents and officers
of the cabinet, Mother" Jones has
served officially as an adviser TO high
Government officials on questions OF
doubt in their minds regarding pol.
icies with respect to mining. Her
part in the big national coal strikes
of 1902 and 1922 was more as an ad-
wiser than as an active participant
IN the controversies, but all through
both disputes she was called in by
both sides for advice.
Mother" Jones has known person
ally every President from Cleveland
to Coolidge and has been Intimately
acquainted with many cabinet officers.
Her acquaintance with Secretary of
Labor Davis is one of many years
standing, and she has conferred with
him many times. particularly during
the troublous days of 1922, when
100000 coal miners went out on strike.

on COAL on the anthracite situation
and the progress of negotiations 1T
Atlantic City for a new working con
tract The Secretary said his visit to
the President was not brought about
by the threatened coal tfe,up.
Even though the Cancellation bu-
reau is keeping a close watch on the
progress of the negotiations at At
lantic City, officials are inclined TO
view the situation as entirely salts
factory, with little indication at pres
ent of strike possibility. The nego-
tiations now are in the preliminary
stages, where minor details of mine
pay and procedure are being dis
cussed The conferences have not
reached the stage where the two major
issues at stake-a wage increase and
the check off, by which miners union
dues are taken from their pay en-
VelopeS-are under discussion.
When the minor issues have been
smoothed out, according to the view
of the Washington observers, Pres
ident John Lewis of the United Mine
Workers of America and President
dent S. d. Warriner of the operators
organization will meet to talk over
the major issues which up until that
time will have been kept in the back
ground. The issues now being dis
cussed have been left up to the prac-
teal mining men in each organization
to work out, but when the major
issues come up the two heads will

At present Labor Department Off
Cials view the possibility of a hard
coal strike as an improbability, TAX

fields expires August 81. after a

FRANKLIN -BOUHLON
WANTS WIDE POWER
Will Not Accept Debt Mission to
U. S. Unless Given Ample
Authority, He Says.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, July 16.-Henri Franklin
Bouillon, former minister of missions
abroad, will tell Premier Painleve
within week or 10 days whether he
accepts the invitation to head the
debt mission to the United States. His
answer will depend upon the specific
powers conferred upon the ENJOYS by
the French government.
M. Franklin -BouilIon today said he
must be in agreement with the char
acter of the instructions if he is to
present the French point of view con-
vincingly.
Wants Real Authority.
NJ Franklin-Bouillon's delay in ac-
ceptance is due. according to his
friends, to his unwillingneSs simply to
be messenger. He insists he must
have real authority TO negotiate, and
before going to Washington must
know fully what agreement the
French cabinet is willing to make.
The position of the French govern
ment may be greatly modified after
the proposals of the American Debt
Funding Commission are known. Con-
sequently the instructions to the
French delegation probably will give
considerable latitude for negotiation
Members of the cabinet now are con-
sidering details of these instructions.
and VI. F'ranklin-Bouillon is withhold
ing his decision until he learns what
the instructions will be.
Finance Minister Caillaux decided
not to go TO Washington himself, be
cause the cabinet thinks the negotia-
tions can be conducted better by dele
gates than by principals. Also he be
lieves the French financial situation
makes it injudicious for him to be alb
sent from Paris for an indefinite time
NJ Franlllin-Bouillon speaks English
perfectly and is said to know the
United States, which he has visited
several times. as well as any French
statesman. An adequate staff of tech,
nicians from the ministry of finance
will be attached to the French mis-
sion.
Leon Mason, head of the Credit
Lyonnais, who has been mentioned as
one of those considered by the cabinet
as a. possible head of the mission, will
leave for the United States tomorrow
