Giant Rhino Restored.

A full skeleton of rhinoceros as
large as modern elephant is being
restored by the Paleontology Insti-
tute of the Academy of Sciences in
Moscow, Russia. Bones of the giant
beast, a long-extinct species known to
science as the elasmotherium, were
found by farmers near Benzenka, on
the Volga- Republic. 1t Is
believed to be the nearest-complete
skeleton of the animal, which dates
back to the glacial period when
mammoths roamed the globe. The
giant rhinoceros inhabited Siberia, the
European part of Russia. the Cau-
casus and Western Europe. according

INJUNCTION HOLDS
COAL COST DATA
U. S. Court of.AppeaIs BaIks
Commissions Release of
Secret Figures.

The National Bituminous Coal Com.
mission today stood enjoined by the
United States Court of Appeals here
from making public individual cost
production figures of % coal producers
in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and
Utah, pending the outcome of the
appeal from the District Court.
The appellate. tribunal, requiring
that both sides act speedily on theil
briefs, set down the appeal as the
first case on the October docket
Associate Justices Justin Miller and
Fred M. Vinson granted the Injunction
which denied inspection of the figures
to interested parties.
The National Bituminous Coal Com
mission prevailed in District Court
where Justice Joseph w. Cox granted
its motion to dismiss the coal pro-
ducers' application for an injunction
and threw out the bill.
The commission had proposed to
make Dublic the individual cost prod
uctiop figures at Denver, Colo, today
The unusual procedure OF the appel
late tribunal in granting the injunc-
ton yesterday afternoon was the re-
suit. The United States Court OF
Appeals held that in the interests of
justice, the status quo should be pre-
served. 1t directed that the companies
file the record not later than Septem-
Der 10, and their brief not later than
September 26, and that the commits
sion file its reply not later than Sep
tember 30.
The lower court was informed BY
the commission that its whole pro-
gram of carrying out the purposes of
the National Bituminous Coal Act
would be delayed if it were hampered
in opening the cost production figures
for inspection. The contention of
the coal producers was that a valu-
able property right would be sacri-
feed If the figures were made public.

ROSS CAUSEDH HIS OWN KIDNAPPING.
Remarked When Ordered Out of Car, He Expected
 to Be Kidnapped

Chicago Jan. 25 - CUP)-John Henry Seadlund, alias Peter An ders, awaiting grand jury action for the kidnap-slaying of Charles s. Ross, insisted today that the kid naping was an after thought Sug- gested by a chance remark of Ross himself.
 He revealed in notes sent from his cell to newspapermen that it was he and not his accomplice, James Atwood Gray, who forced Ross out of his car the night of September 25.
 Tt was just a stickup," Seadlund said. But as Ross got out of the car he said, T always figured I'd be Kidnapped some day
 Sorry Next Day
 That was the first time I'd thought of Kidnapping him. was sorry the next day" Grinning and kicking at photographers, the slay- CT was arraigned before U. s. Com missioner Edwin K. Walker yester- day just an hour after secret fu- neral services were held for his vic- tim in a heavy rain at Rosehill cemetery. When Seadlund stood mute, Walker entered a technical plea of not guilty for him, continued the arraignment until February and ordered him held without bond for the grand jury. T. was expected that an indictment would be re- turned Friday.

World Je1uish Congress Is Making Appeal To League

Geneva, Jan. 9 - CUP) - The World Jewish Congress circulated a l00-page petition among members of the League of Nations council today urging the league to take ac- ton in behalf of 758,000 Jews threat ened by the anti-semitic program of the new government of Rumania. The petition attacked the govern ment of Premier Octavian Goga and charged 1t with having violated the 1919 minority treaty guaranteeing liberty and justice for all inhabi- tants of the country. The petition was accompanied by many amend ments intended to refute in detail statistics issued by the Rumanian government in connection with the Jewish problem. It also contained photographs reproducing offensive pictures published in the Rumanian governmental press" and testimony of ill treatment of Jews derived from Jewish, English, French and Ger man sources.
 The document also charged that the Rumanian government put into practice anti-semitic doctrines de- signed to remove Jews entirely from the national Rumanian life. Alleg-

MERRITT GRAND
 JURY IS ADVISED
Judge Carl Foster Charged Them With Their Duties
 This Morning

Bridgeport, Conn.,, Jan. 25.-(UPj Superior Court Judge Carl Foster charging the extraordinary grand jury summoned to investigate the $60O,000 Merritt Parkway purchases, asked that a diligent inquiry be conducted because it is of great im- portance to certain officers and of- ficials who have been criticized"
 Immediately the jury of IS active and retired business men, none of whom is an attorney, was sworn in, the court outlined the broad pow CTS delegated to it in determining whether any statute had been vio- lated in the parkway purchases. Tt is public knowledge and of ficial notice has come to the states attorneys office" Judge Foster said. that sums so large have been paid for Merritt Parkway land that it seems to create belief a crime has been committed. The states at- torney has no power to summon wit nesses under oath but the grand jury has.
 Probe Was Demanded
 Citizens demand such investiga- tions so that if a crime has not been committed 1t will dispel the belief. but if crime has been com- mitted it will bring such persons to trial"
 The duties of the grand jury. he said, were of broader scope" than those of a regular grand jury, and

BURNED TODEATH
 IN COTTAGE FIRE
William H. Selner Victim of Blaze To-day at Say=
 brook Point

Saybrook Point, Conn.,, Jan. s. UP)-One man was burned to death. another died of shock and two invalids were rescued as fire destroyed two beach front cottages here early today.
 The body of William H. Selner was found in the ruins by firemen.
 The fire started from an over heated stove in Selner's cottage.
 It spread to an adjoining cottage in which MT. and Mrs. George Sel- ner and their 18-year old daughter lived.
 Mrs. Selner carried her invalid husband and bed-ridden daughter to safety before apparatus arrived.
 Almost Saved Himself
 Selner, about 70, reached the front door of his cottage, within a few feet of safety. when he collapsed. Bremen saw his body but were un- able to reach it because of the in- tense heat.
 Shortly after the fires had burned out, Gilman G. Gates, son of the late Probate Judge Charles S. Gates, dropped dead at his nearby home from a heart attack induced by the excitement of the blaze.
 Two watchdogs in the Selner cottage perished. He apparently had been aroused by the barking but because of the dense smoke was unable to reach the open. Mildred Deming, who lived at the cottage. was away for the night. She is employed at the state hospital at Mlddletown. A furious wind and rain storm hampered arrival of fire apparatus.

ESTHER BRIEvE
 IS Ex0NERATED
Naugatuck Woman Did Not Drive Car That Crashed
 into Children

Possibility that Miss Esther Brieve, 27. of Culver street, Nauga- tuck, might have been the driver of the car which ran into group of six children at Meriden and Todd roads last Wednesday night, fatally injuring three of the youngsters, has been investigated and dismissed by Deputy Coroner Walter w. Smyth. There is no question but that the car was driven by Frank Degnan, 27, of Wilson street, the deputy coroner said today.
 MT. Smyth said that rumors that the girl was driving the car at the time of the triple tragedy grew out of the position of the bodies of the cars occupants after the accident When witnesses reached the scene, Degnan was lying on the snow near the car, while Miss Brieve was in the drivers seat. The force of the collision was undoubtedly respon- sible, says Mir Smyth.
 Degnan Admits It
 Degnan, still in a serious condi- tion at Waterbury hospital, has been questioned by the coroner and has admitted being the driver of the car.
 Deputy Coroner Smyth conducted formal inquest into the accident yesterday afternoon at South school Wolcott. Ten witnesses were exam
