OW|NGS CLEARED
IN CONTEMPT CASE
Former Bank Official Ruled
Innocent in Talk With
Questioning Juror.

Frank Owings, former vice president
of the Bank of Commerce & Savings,
was exonerated today by Justice Jen-
ningS Bailey of a charge of contempt
of court issued against him by Justice
Frederick L. SiddonS for an alleged
conversation with Fred w. Jones, 381l
Beecher street. a juror i'll a case pend
ing in Circuit Division l, June %.
OwningS. through Attorney William
B. Wolf, filed an answer setting forth
that the conversation occurred in the
corridor of the court house as he was
hurrying back to court after a noon
recess and he did not know that the
man making the inquiry whether banks
were insured against bad checks was a
member of the jury. He disclaimed any
intention of showing disrespect for the
court.
Justice Bailey decided that Jones, the
juror who held out against IL other
jurors in favor of the bank which had
been defendant in the case, had been
cautioned by. Justice Siddons not to
talk to anybody about the case and had
violated the courts injunction. He held
him guilty of contempt of court, but
was not prepared to fix the penalty to-
day. Jones, the court pointed out,
knew that Owings had been a witness
in the case. The court released Jones
on his personal bond until tomorrow
morning for sentence.
Attorneys Hawkins and Havell for
the juror pleaded that he had asked
the question out of curiosity and
through his ignorance Of court pro-
cedure and was unaware that he was
doing any wrong. They pointed out
that Jones lost $500 per day by his
service on the jury, but had not asked
to be excused. They assured the court
their client had no intention of vio-
lating the court rules or of showing
disrespect to the court.
Assistant United States Attorney
Neil BurkinShaw, who prosecuted the
contempt charge, conceded the motion
to dismiss the rule against OwingS, but
pointed out that the inquiry propounded
by the juror was one of the salient
points in the case on trial, and he could
not agree that Jones be held guiltless.

Yesterday, the writer stated that

counted on the Presidents attitude for
much more than the President himself
was able to do for him in the face of
a growing revolt.
The extent to which Mr.. Hoover
participated was to cause a postpone
ment of the resignation, while Congress
was In session and the reports today
are that a definite understanding was
reached whereby Mr.. Huston would re-

fact remains that the President is sorry
to see his personal friend pilloried by
the political attacks of his opponents,
but nevertheless recognizes that the

For several days there has been talk
of some one to head the work of the

understanding that some one like Jouett

VATICAN CITY, July 9.-Cardinal
Vannutelli, 93-year-old dean of the
Sacred College, died late today after
several days serious illness
Vincent Cardinal Vannutelii was one
Of the great figures OF the Sacred Col
lege in the years before his advancing
age compelled him to curb his activi-
ties,
For many years he was the principal
diplomatic representative of the Vati-
can and because of his peculiar fitness
for the role is said to have attended
as representative of the Pope more i'm
portant and royal and imperial cere-
monies than any other member of the
Sacred College.
His services to the church began with
his ordination to the priesthood in 1850
For more than half century thereafter
Cardinal Vannutelli'S missions took
him to many countries. He became dean
of the Sacred College in 1921 upon the
death of James Cardinal Gibbons of
Baltimore.
Talked to Duce.
The venerable cardinal. ever an apos-
tie of peace and good will, Is said to
have been responsible for the Inaugural
ton of negotiations looking toward q
settlement Of the age-old Roman queS-
ton during the early years Of the re-
gime of Premier MuSsolini.
In 1924, for the first time since the
Pope was stripped of his temporal
power in Rome, the head of the Italian
government had private talk with the
dean of the Sacred College, Cardinal
Vannutelh.
MuSSolini was on a visit to the Prov
ince of CaSentino and stopped at NAL
Soleo, where there Is monastery.
Cardinal Vannutelli was q guest there
and MusSolini went to pay homage to
him. Afterward the two had a private
talk of more than half an hour. AL
though the subject OF their conversation
was not made public, it was the gener-
al belief that the discussion included
possible efforts to settle the historic con-
troVerSy.
Cardinal Vannuteli was born Decem-
Der 5, 1886, at GenaZZano, in the do
ceSe of PaleStrina, of a noble family
that had been conspicuous in that do
ceSe. His brother, Searfino Vannutelli,
also was a cardinal and dean of the
Sacred College at the time of his death
in December, 1915. The grandfather Of
the two cardinals was Count Vannutelli,

of Napoleon's sister, Princess Pauline
Rorghese, and afterward to her mother,
Letitia Bonaparte.
Served in Brussels.
After his ordination in 1860, Cardinal
Vannutelli spent nearly twenty years in
the service OF the church in Brussels
and Holland. He was elevated to arch
bishop in 1880 and then delegated to
ConStantinople as papal envoy. His next
mission was as internuncio at Brazil.
Later he was named nuncio at Lisbon
and was at that post when created q
cardinal at the conSiStory In Deem
Der, 1889. He returned to Rome In June,
1890, when he received the red hat
and took his place in the Sacred Col
lege.
With his diplomatic training and
wide knowledge OF life and conditions
in foreign countries, Cardinal VAN
nuteln added to his equipment as the
ideal Vatican representative an impoS-
ing figure and gracious bearing. He
was feet inches tall. He represented
the Holy Father at the coronation of
Alexander III of Russia and was the
pontifical delegate to the eucharistic
congresses held at Tourney, Metz, Lon
don, Cologne and Montreal from 1906
to 1910. respectively.
When the cardinal went to London
to preside at the sessions of the con-
gress in 1908 he was the first papal
legate sent to the British capital since
the days OF the Reformation.
After the Montreal congress, in 1910,
Cardinaly Vannutelli visited the United
States and made tour Of some of the
larger cities He attended the exercises
in connection with the conservation of
st. Patrick's Cathedral, New York, dur
ing which he delivered an address.
Cardinal Vannutelli was prominently
mentioned as a candidate for the papal
throne at the conclayes which elected

oned" DIR. Simon's statement as it was

with having made such statement and
would not elaborate.
After the meeting, 1t was learned on
good authority that DIR. Simons fears
center about the boards proposal to Of
fer Miss Halberg the professorship of
education and its fears that she would
oppose that form of "demotion" even
though no financial angle was involved.
1t was the boards original plan to make
the present principals of the two nor

dents. The compromises effected in
Congress on the 1891 appropriation bill,
however. cut the salaries for the teach
ers' colleges so that both positions will
not be available this year II was made

ting that, while Miss Halberg may be
offered the profeSSorship, she will not
be made president Of the Wilson Teach-
ers' College.

All doubts concerning the retirement
OF Claudius H. Huston were cleared
up today.
1t was disclosed that Mr.. Huston will
be out of power after the Republican
National Committee meets here tomor-
row. It is explained that President
Hoover, while entertaining the highest
regard for his personal friend, feels
that the Republican National Commit
tee should be headed by some one who
has the absolute confidence OF the en-
tire committee.
Mr.. Hoover's friendship for Mr. Hus-
ton caused q postponement of the crisis
until after Congress had adjourned.
but now the problem Of finding a
successor has been definitely placed be-
fore Republican leaders in the Senate
and in the National Committee.
G.. o. p. Revolt Pronounced.
Some doubt has been cast upon Mr..
HustonS initiative with respect to re-
tirement. There are reasons for be-
lieving that he did not wish to resign
under fire and in this he has the SYM
pathy OF the President. All along it
has been inferred that Mr.. Huston
would not resign ,.nless the President
told him to do so. The situation, how
ever, developed TO the point where a
revolt inside the Republican National
Committee became pronounced and
now 1t is revealed that the President
has understood right along that Mr..
Huston would give up the Republican
national Craftsmanship. If Mr.. Huston
had any doubts about Mr.. Hoover'S
wishes they now have been removed.
The chief difficulty seems to be that
Mr.. Huston regarded the possibility Of
his retirement as a reflection upon him
very much like the circumstances which
surround the resignation OF a public
Official 1t Is indicated In official quar-
ters that the Republican National Com
mittee is an unofficial organization of
