A 15-year-old youth, who declared
he never carried any weapon more
dangerous than a cap pistol, was
identified by four taxicab drivers early
today in a series of recent hold-ups
in the Chevy Chase section.
The youth, John Hendrix Doran, jr.,
of I0l Taylor street, Chevy Chase, Md,
is quoted by police as having admit
ted robbing the four men. as well as
two other hackers whom police expect
to locate today.
Doran explained he had encountered
little difficulty in relieving the drivers
of their money with the assistance OF
his toy pistol, police said, except on
one occasion.
Then, according to police. the In
tended victim turned on the youth,
took his cap pistol away from him and
chased him as far as he could see
him. but Doran escaped.
Doran was captured last night by
another intended yictim-Lloyd Jen-

block of Grant road.
jenkins, he said, grappled with the
youth and called to neighbors to tele-
phone police. A detail from No. pre-
cinct found the pair still struggling
when they arrived.
Jenkins said Doran engaged his cab
at Fourteenth and @ streets, asking to
be driven to Connecticut avenue and
Davenport street. Arriving, jenkins
said he was told to go up Davenport
street to Grant road.
Then, Jenkins said, Doran thrust a
hard instrument against the back Of
his neck with the order to stick 'em
upl" Instead, jenkins said. he grabbed
the boy around the neck, and the scuffie
ensued. The pistol was thrown out the
window In the meantime, and police
we're still looking for it today. Doran
insisted 1t was toy gun and would not
shoot.
After questioning, Doran was re-
moved to the Receiving Home for Chill

D|CKEY FINED $1,000,
SUSPENDED 81 DAYS
Punishment for Breaking
Reynolds Jaw One Of Most
Severe on Record.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July 9-Catcher Bill
Dickey of the New York Yankees today
was fined $1,000 and suspended until
August 4 for his attack on Carl Rey-
nolds. Washington outfielder.
The fine was one OF the severest ever
levied on a major league player,
although the suspension, totaling 81
days from the day Dickey cracked Rey-
nolds jaw, was not as long as de-
manded by Clark Griffith, president of
the Washington club.
Griffith demanded that Dickey be kept
out of the game until Reynolds was
able to return.
Dickey assaulted Reynolds in the first
game of a double-header on July 4.
The Washington outfielder dashed in
with the tying score on a squeeze
play" and Dickey, enraged because he
had come rushing in standing up, struck
him. Reynolds jaw was fractured. He
probably will be out of the game for
another month.
President Will Harridge Of the Amer
ican League who levied the staggering
fine, carefully digeSted all reports on
the case before announcing his decision.
It was the second assault case" in the
American League this season.
The first one, involving the battle
of three White SoX players and Mana
ger Lew Fonseca against George Mori-
arty at Cleveland on Memorial day.
Fines totaling $3.50 were dealt out to
the White Sox players in that case,
Pitcher CASTOR and Manager Fonseca
receiving $500 fines.
Reynolds lower jaw was fractured in
two places by Dickey's blow. Since
that time he has been unable to eat
solid foods.
President Harridge said he sent the
news of the fine direct to Dickey yes
terday $50 he would learn Of it direct,
without first reading 1t in the news
papers,"
1t is probable that the club owners
may vote to turn over the proceeds OF
the fine to Reynolds of the Washington
club, when they hold their usual Sum-
mer meeting at Cleveland next Monday
morning.
That is purely up to the club owners, !"
President Harridge said. 1.-The fine that
Dickey must pay automatically goes into
the American League treasury and the
club owners can do what they think
best"

Declares, Views Outlined by
Hoover June 20, 1881,
Still Obtain.
ATTITUDE is EXPLAINED
BY STATE DEPARTMENT
Statement Issued After SMELLS Dec
laration That Presidents Con-
victions Were Unchanged.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The State Department said in a state
ment today there was no change in the
attitude Of the American Government
on the question of war debts from the
views outlined by President Hoover last
June when he said he did not approve
cancellation, but that further temporary
adjustments would be necessary.
The State Department said:
The American Government is pleased
that, in reaching an agreement on the
question of reparations, the nations as
sembled in Lausanne have made great
step forward in the stabilization Of the
economic situation in Europe.
U. S. Attitude Unchanged.
"On the question of war debts owing
to the United States by European gov
ernments there is no change in the at
titude Of the American Government
which was clearly expressed in the
Presidents statement concerning the
! proposed moratorium on intergovern-
mental debts on June 20 of last year"
The statement came a little after
Representative Smell of New York, the
Republican leader, had said the atti-
tude of President Hoover had not
| changed and he did not expect the State
Department TO take any action.
Meanwhile in the Senate. a resolution
to request President Hoover to inform
that body whether there Is any founda-
ton for reports that the United States
has expressed to foreign nations a will
/ ingness to reduce debts and if so, by
| what authority such action has been
taken, was introduced by Senator Nc
| Kellar, Democrat of Tennessee
Statement of June 20, 1881.
President Hoover's statement of June
| 20, 1881, said in discussing inter-gov-
ernmental debts
Il do not approve in any remote
sense Of the cancellation of the debts
to us. World confidence would not JSa
enhanced by such action. None OF
| our debtor nations have ever sug-
| gested it.
But as the basis of the settlement Of
| these debts was the capacity under nor
! NAL conditions Of the debtor to pay, we
| should be consistent with our own poll
cies and principles If we take into ac-
count the abnormal condition now
existing in the world.
II am sure the American people have
! no desire to attempt to extract any
! sum beyond the capacity Of any debtor
to pay and 1t Is our view that broad
vision requires that our Government
should recognize the situation as it
/ exists

VACCINE SEEN
AS TUBERCULOSIS DETERRENT
Wisconsin Scientist Believes 'Tubuvase" NAV Brins
Partial Control of White Plague.

1T is line Of work surely worth
following" DR.. Frost commented.
The vaccine Is obtained from isolated
tubercle bacilli treated by ultra violet
rays.
THE rays" the paper said, "effec-
lively will kill the germs of tubercu-
lcsis. but apparently produce little
chemical change in their scientific
bodies or toxins"
DR.. Frost cited the work Of German
and French scientists using vaccine pre-
pared from live bacilli and termed such
vaccine dangerous Vaccines from dead
bacilli, he said, generally were regarded
useless.

CHERBOURG, France, July 9.-The
Italian salvage ships Artiglio and Rosto
prepared today to attempt what many
experts considered the almost impos-
sible-the salvage of the sunken French
submarine Promethee ami the rescue
of her crew. if any of them is alive.
The two salvage ships arrived at 10
am, and proceeded directly to ;he
arsenal to take on equipment for The
rescue attempt.
Vice Admiral LIE Do, chief of the
maritime prefecture, said this morning
it would be most difficult task AT
that depth (the submarine is lying
about 245 feet below the surface the

Current Hampers Work.
"But we win first try to pass chains
around the hull to permit the use Of
lifting gear and it might also be pcs
sible to drag the submarine to shallower
water"
A nine-knot current in the channel
also hampered the rescue work. 1t
was believed, however, that if anything
could be done the Artiglio and Rosto
| could do it and hope prevailed that It
would be possible at least for the
| divers to attach air pipes to the sockets
| in the hull to keep the men alive until
a large scale refloating operation was
possible
There was no craft in this harbor
with apparatus to send down a diver
Preparations Completed.
The location of the submarine was
clearly marked, however, and the ma
| ture of the currents in the vicinity were
fully determined so that everything was
ready for the diving to proceed.
| The maritime prefecture officials an
nounced that the salvage operations
! could only be begun at low tide when
the channel currents were less strong.
Vice Admiral lie Do cited for bravery
| two of the sailor survivors of the catas-
| trophe, who. he said, while on the bridge
at the moment the accident occurred
had the courage to descend into the
! compartment into which the water was
rushing and close the hatch
He also expressed admiration for the
courage with which Ensign Bienbenu
another survivor, spurred his comrades
to keep swimming during their struggle

when he came near tearing the
head of Jess Willard IS years
ago. But he had been fighting
for years and it is matter of much
doubt that he ever passed to a point
above that Toledo peak.
Max Schmeling is now 26. But
Schmeling is a far better fighter at 26
than he was at "a, when he won the
title on a foul from Jack Sharkey. He
had nothing like Dempsey's ring ex-
perience when he picked up the title,
but he has been learning a lot since
and his exhibitions and his training
have built up both his attack and de-
ter use of his hands and feet. AS far
as one can gather. not even Gene Tun-
ney paid more attention to physical
condition.
In various competitive sports there
have been young champions and old
champions. But the prime Of COM
petitive life is around 26 or 27-the age
that has sufficient blend of youth,
experience and stamina.
The next two years should be the
best OF Schmeling's career. He needs
more actual ring competition than he
has gotten since the Sharkey fight in
which the title came as gift from
Sharkey, but his exhibitions are MAX
ing up for at least part Of ring idle
ness under fire. 1t was around 26 that
Christy Mathewson was at his best. 1t
was around 26 and 27 that Ty Cobb
batted .420 and .4l0 and ran at his
widest
Schmeling's hardest test in 1882
should be against Jack Sharkey, If the
two ever climb into the ring again

been the most erratic good heavy
weight Of all time, but he also can be
this should be one fight--if it ever
takes place-where he will shoot all he
has to offer. There is almost no
chance for any big money gate this
year, so the best move Schmeling and
Jacobs can make, on the financial side,
Is to crowd in at least two or three
matches before another foot ball season
breaks.
This season of 1892 will be a queer
l. one along the line OF age angles.
