Demand Release Or Formal
Filing OF Army
Allegations

WASHINGTON, June 15.-P-
An army colonel and his Wac wife
held in the Kronberg castle jewels
case, asserted today that they had
admitted nothing (which they con-
sidered criminal and demanded
that the WAY department release
them or state its charges, eff any,"
Held at an undisclosed army post
not far from Washington the
couple, Col. Jack w. Durant and
Capt. Kathleen B. Nash Durant,
issued a statement through coun-
sci assigned them by the military.
They were taken into custody a
week ago at Chicago while on their
honeymoon after the war depart
ment had begun an investigation
into the disappearance of approx
mately $1,500, 900 in jewels and
other relics from a German castle
at which the army said both had
been stationed.
War department officials said
part of the missing gems were
located at Hudson, Wis, and that
most OF the rest were found in a
Chicago railway station locker at
ter Col. Durant had furnished Of
ficers with the key.
Capt. Frank M. Bosworth. as
sistant staff judge advocate for the
military district of Washington,
serving as interim counsel for the
Durants said:
"All information available IN r.
the present time has come from
sources that are primarily inter
ested in establishing that a fabu-
lous amount of jewelry was recov-
cred from Germany under circum-
stances which amount to criminali-
ty."
He added that the couple "are
only reasonable in their desire to
correct certain impressions that
have apparently been created by
Information previously conveyed
to the public"
Col. and Capt. Durant want it
emphatically stated that they were
at all times available to military
authorities" he said, land at no
time did either do otherwise than
to cooperate with the military to
the fullest extent. Likewise, that
any impression that has been
created that they concealed their
Identity or whereabouts for any
reason is entirely erroneous"
Capt. Bosworth said the colonel
and his wife have asked to be rep
resented by army offices "of their
own selection" but meanwhile st
have made a formal demand on be-
half of both that copies of the
charges, if any, be furnished to
me! or in the alternative that both
be released from their present
custody"

RULES EASED FOR
COAL DELIVERIES
Consumers Now Able To
Purchase More From
Retail Dealers

WASHINGTON, June 15-(P-
With bituminous coal production
back near normal, the solid fuels
administration relaxed today it's
limitation on deliveries to domestic
consumers.
Domestic consumers household
ers and others who bury through re-
tail dealers who ordinarily use
storage facilities are now per-
1nitted to receive up to 90 per cent
OF the supply they obtained be-
tween April /, 1e45 and March 81,
1916.
Domestic consumers who do not
ordinarily store soft coal still are
limited to ten days supply, or one
truck load. This limitation has
applied to all domestic consumers
since May 81.
While officials of the solid fuels
administration said the new 60
per cent Limitation undoubtedly
will be increased by a subsequent
order, there still is no definite in
dication whether unlimited deIiv
cries will be permitted during the
current fuel year." which began
April 1.
In the last year, retailers were
limited to 80 per cent OF their re.
ceipts in 1912. The retailers. in
turn, passed on this reduction to
their customers.
