SECRET PLEA
VIEWED RATE
SLASH DELAY
Mystery Petition Before
Commission Would Hold
Up Cut a Year.
MOVE BY CITY CHIEFS
Designed Merely to Obtain
More Information, Say
Officials.

Secrecy today surrounded a petit
ton filed by the city administra-
ton with the public service COM
mission asking a complete audit and
appraisal before any hearings are
held in the rate reduction case
against the Indianapolis Power and
Light Company.
This delay would eliminate any
immediate rate reduction order.
The petition, revealed today by
Commissioner Harry K. Cuthbert-
son, who has the case in charge,
was filed last Wednesday. But it
was not put through the routine
which would result in having it
made public.
CuthbertSon, however, gave out
the document today and also let
ter from Edward H. Knight, city
corporation counsel. In the letter,
Knight submitted a list of coal COM
panies, with the suggestion that
they subponaed to give compare
tive prices of coal with prices paid
United Galleries, the Power and
Light Company subsidiary.
New Petition Filed
But Knight asked in the letter
that the commission summon the
coal dealers to testify, without let
ting the dealers know he had sug-
gested their names.
Cuthbertson stated he will have
no truck" with such procedure. in
making both the letter and petition
public.
He declared he didn't know who
brought in the petition, no mention
of which was made in Knights let
ter which bore the same date
March 9.
When Knight was asked regarding
the petition he inquired of The
Times reporter as to how the in
formation had been obtained re-
garding it.
Already Thrice Postponed
did the commission give it out?"
he asked and when informed that
| 1t had been made public there, went
on to explain its contents.
THE city has not the facilities to
secure the necessary data for rate
case and it is entirely up to the
public service commission" Knight
asserted.
Time needed will depend on
them"
The petition was not directed spe-
officially at preventing the prelimi-
nary hearing which thrice has been
postponed already, knight said.
This hearing was asked by the city
when it was learned that the com
pany had shown great profits in
stock promotion circular, but no
so great at conferences in hope, of
reducing rates by arbitration.
CuthbertSon announced if the
profit showing in the stock cir
cular was proven correct, he would
make a temporary rate reduction
order pending audit and appraisal,
which may take a year.
Prevent Preliminary Hearing
Today he said the new filing of
the city appeared designed to pre-
vent any preliminary hearing or
any hearings until complete audit
and appraisal is made. This would
eliminate hope of any prompt rate
reduction.
Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan de-
clared he was opposed to any delay
and understood the new petition,
which bore the signatures of Knight
and James E. Deery, city attorney,
was to disclose to the commission
sources of information upon which
rate reductions might be based.
Sources set out were similar to
those enumerated by the mayor
when the first compromise confer
ences were held.

LONDON, March 11.-Ro-
nance triumphed over the
rigid rules of royalty today
when Prince Lennart, %, of
Sweden, renouncing his royal
rights, was married in a civil
ceremony to Miss Karin Mss
vandt, Il, commoner daughter
of Stockholm capitalist.
Although the marriage did
not have the royal approval,
the newlyweds we're made glad
just before leaving on their
honeymoon when they received
best wishes from King Gustav
of Sweden, grandfather of the
prince, indicating the royal
forgiveness.
Best wishes also were re-
ceived from Prince Wilhelm of
Sweden, the bridegroom's ia
ther, and Grand Duchess Marie
of Russia, his mother.
The grand duchess, who
came from New York for the
wedding, did not attend the
ceremony, however. She stayed
away on religious grounds,
since the prince refused to
have church wedding.

Resolution Adopted
BY SAMUEL DASHIELL

GENEVA, March 1.-THE league
assemblys resolution for settlement
of the far eastern dispute was
passed unanimously by the general
commission of the assembly today,
China and Japan refraining from
voting.
Shortly afterward, the resolution
was adopted by a full plenary ses-
sion of the assembly, China and
Japan abstaining from voting.
The resolution provides for cesSa-
ton of hostilities at Shanghai and
refuses to recognize any territorial
gains made in contravention of the
League covenant or the Kellogg
anti-war treaty.
The Leagues course, under the
resolution, will be handled by spe-
cial commission of nineteen mem
bers, including the president of the
assembly, the twelve members of
the council, excluding China and
Japan, and six others to be elected
by the assembly itself.
During today'S deliberations, the
United States delegation was in
close contact with the assembly,
being separated by mere roped-
off Enclosure from participation in
the session.
Three times during the proceed
ing of including the Kellogg treaty
in the resolution Sir John Simon
entered the Enclosure reserved for
nom members of the league and
conferred with Hugh Wilson,
American minister to Switzerland.
Such collaboration, as we'll as
Secretary Stimson's letter to Sena-
tor Borah, which was considered
the equivalent of a United States
keynote address to the assembly
was interpreted not only as closer
Anglo-American cooperation, but
as practical United States collab-
Grafton with the league.
