MYSTIC ORIENT
TALE Barred IN
DEATH REPR!IEVE
Spare Elephant Trainer
After New Light on Muir
der Motives.

BIZ United Press
LONDON, Dec. ia remarkable
story Of oriental mysticism and re-
ligious persecution was told BY the
Daily News today in connection with
the reprieve from death of San Dive,
Burmese elephant trainer sentenced
for murder.
The News said it understood that
the reprieve, granted Saturday in
the kings name, was due to revela-
tionS received by San DIVES attor-
ney Immediately after the trial.
San Dive, a Burmese Christian,
was sentenced for the murder of
Said Ali, Mohammedan elephant
trainer with whom he lived in rooms
over the tapir house at the London
ZOO.
The News story said it was re-
ported to San DIVES attorney that
Said Ali used to make the Chris
tan kneel on his towel in front Of
1AnAls 0p4A GWC WOu4Q NC AOASCO w
bow eight or ten times before Said
Ali and treat him as a deity.
Other elements of mystery pre-
viously had been introduced into the
case to cast doubt on the police
theory that robbery caused the
crime. 1t was significant that the
day before the murder, Pa Wa,
sacred Burmese elephant, died in
India. Mohammedan tradition says
curse descends when a sacred
elephant is taken from its native
country.
San Dive had accompanied Pa Wa
on a world exhibition. 1t was con-
sidered probable that the Moham-
medan had denounced the Christian
for his impious act and attributed
Pa Was death to it.

MELLON

BY international News Service
RALEIGH, n. c., March %.
Senator James A. Reed took
his broadside against the
wholesale corruption of the
Republican party" into the
western section of the State
today, making his final North
Carolina speech at Asheville
tonight.
A swing through Knoxville, Tenn,
tomorrow, and then the Missourian
will head toward Wisconsin, where
he will make three addresses.
Senator Reed spoke here last night
before the State convention of the
Daughters of the American Rcvolu-
ton and 1000 visitors, continuing his
attack on the Republican admins
tration, scoring Teapot Dome oil
scandal, and the Pennsylvania and
Illinois senatorial elections.
Reed discussed the settlement Of
foreign debts to the United States,
which he alleged Secretary OF Treas
ury Andrew w. Mellon forced
through, "saddling on the shoulders
of American taxpayers billions of
dollars which should be paid by
European countries"
The speaker declared the first sug-
gestiOn, seconded by Secretary Mel.
lon, that this cOuntry's foreign debts
should be cancelled, came from in
ternatiOnaI bankers. Investigation,
Reed said, disclosed the fact that this
group, with others, had issued thir-
teen billion dollars worth OF bonds
to float foreign loans; and he pointed
out that the cancellation of the ma
tional debt would send private bonds
to par thereby enabling bankers
with whom Secretary Mellon worked
hand in glove to make untold mil
lions"
This would have blackened Mel
lon." Reed said, had not he been
in so many similar transactions that
he could be made no blacker."
1T is about time" Reed declared,
