Known as “Quall Hunter.” MEMPHIS, November 3.—Jack Ken- nedy, one of the bandits killed near Seventy Six, Mo., early today, in an attempted train hold-up, gained the appellation “Quail Hunter” just be- fore he was sentenced to a term in the Missouri penitentlary for robbing a St. Louis and San Francisc) train near Kansas City some years ago. Kennedy's arrest at that time came about accidentally when two police- men, patrolling & suburb of Kaunsas City, found him lying in the snow, be- numbed with cold. A search of his clothing revealed an Army pistol and a short distance away his horse was found with a rifle strapped to the sad- dle. When he was revived and asked as to his reason for being 5o heavily armed, Kennedy explained that he ut quall hunting.” TELEPHONE WIRES CUT. Accounts of Attempted Train Rob- bery Are Conflicting. ST.

November 3.—Tele- phone communication with Witten- waere reported to have been shot early today, in an attempt to rob a St Louis-Memphis train on the St. Louls and San Francisco railroad, was cut early today, the local telephone com- pany announced. Advices at Chaffee, Mo., differed from information available at Mem- phis, Tenn., In that instead of mem- bers of the train crew being respon: ble for repulsing the robbers and killing two, it was reported the bandits were shot by three special de- tectives when they stepped off the locomotive, which they had uncoupled from the train, as it ran wild through Wittenberg.

Debate in Assembly. Violent scenes marked the pro- ceedings of the assembly during the discussion of the status of the sultan. A number of the opposition deputies left the hall: others favored post- ponement of the question until after the concluslon of peace. Dr. Riza Nur Bey, member of the nationalist delegation to Lausanne, presented a motion indorsed by seventy-six deputies, declaring that a new Turkey had sprung from the will 1iberate the caliphate from captivity.” After a lively discussion the motion assembly of Turkey was referred to & commission of judicial experts. Mustapha Kemal Pasha in a two- hour speech outlined the course of Turkish history. He pleaded for the separation of the sultanate from the caliphate, pointing out in support of his argument the inconvenience of having the soverign and caliph identical, and insisted upon the necessity of a discussion of the project. The assembly finally adopted a resolution moved by Dr. Riza Nur Bey, that the telegram sent to the Angora government by Tewfik Pasha, the grand vizier of the suitan's gov ernment, was an act of treason, and the author of it must be punished.

REPUBLICANS SURE TO HOLD CONGRESS, SURVEY DISCLOSES (Continued from First Page.) ties where the manufietmeass fan] secure in raising their own prices to consumers. The faciers w. . the tariff will help them and they wonder why it isn't of avail already. But farm prices are low and the farmer finds a rising cost in things he {s buying. Most of the agricultural states are normally republican. Thelr protest against low farm prices and bad economic conditions was express- ed_in the primaries. The fecling against the Harding ad- ministration in some of these states is bitter. It is not as bad today as it was six months ago, and the Harding follow- ers are hoping the improvement will continue. But unless all signs fail the famous farm bloc will be more power- ful in the next Congress and kick up a greater fuss than it ever did be- fore. The farmer feels that he has been patted on the back, but not helped. He wants something more than promises. He wants a definite system of agricultural finance that will put him on a parity in the money market with the manufacturer and producer elsewhere. He wants lower frelght rates. He is agalnst a ship subsidy, not because he has thought it out carefully, but because he ob- jects to anything being done until he is taken care of first. 0Old Debts Hanging Over. Crops have been good, but prices have been low. Debts of past years overhang ominously. Speculation in land has been a sin of the agricul- turalist, and now that values have shrunk there is disturbance and many bankruptcies. No one is to blame for this but the individual who speculat- ed. but in the general melee of dis- content, responsibility is generally placed upon those who have it in their power to systematize the financing of agriculture In this country but who have not done so. The agricultural belt is seething with insurgency. Relatively speaking it is a small area, and is in‘marked contrast to the com- munities in manufacturing states, where a greater measure,of content- ment than was apparent two years ago is plainly felt, where the suns of normaley are beginning to shine and where confidence in the future is being gradually substituted for the uncertainty of a year ago. Except for the agricultural belt the discontent on economic grounds is not wide- spread. Politically, however, it is no exaggeration to say that the records of both political parties have not been satisfactory, and the public is beginning to develop a mood of im- patience that will ultimately demand a change.

Banks Total $1,880,900 Washington's Christmas trade will benefit greatly from the savings that have been laid aside week by week in the banks of Washington against the great spending and gift season. Christmas savings clubs conducted by three national banks, eleven sav- ings institutions and one trust com- pany will distribute hundreds of thou- sands of dollars early in December, so that it will be available for early shopping, the aggregate amount of their disbursements being $1,880.900. This is exclusive of the savings that individuals have been making from week to week in anticipation of the! holiday seasor. In itself the Christmas savings clubs will go far to make the holi- day trade satisfactory to merchants. Bankers do not count on more than 10 per cent of the year's savings go- ing back into the regular savings ac- counts, so that 90 per cent of the fund probably will be expended. Handling of Funds. Bankers have found considerable trouble handling savings accounts of { this character, clerical help and space being necessary, as the depositor must make about fifty-two visits a year to maturity. Some banks add 3 per cent interest to the amount deposited; others care for the funds, but will not pay inter- est. Ready employment is found for the deposits of Christmas savers through investments In short-term maturities. The regular borrowings of the Treas- ury of the United States offered es- pecial inducements in the past, when interests at:5 to 6 per cent was paid, but other investments have been more profitable since the certificate rates | paid by the Treasury have been re- duced as low as 3% per cent. The satisfaction that-comes to the Christmas savers from the reward of their year of thrift is usually such that they are in line with the open- ing of the new clubs which start their season on or about December 11. shortly after having paid out on the year's club. Totals of Clubs. The Potomac Savings Bank and the Franklin National Bank lead the list with _the largest clubs, each report- ing $250,000, while the other banks run from the $180.000 of the Security Savings and Commercial to the $19.- | 000 of the Northwest Savings Bank, i where children probably are the chief | savers. i The following banks report totals in their Christmas savings clubs as tollows: Franklin National Bank.

The tower and chime of bells erect- ed to the memory of the late Rev. Dr. Randolph Harrison McKim, for thirty-two years rector of the Church of the Epiphany, were dedicated with special exercises beginning at 10:30 o'clock this morning. High tribute to Dr. McKim, who, like the tower, “stood four square to all the winds that blow,” was paid by Rev. Dr. James E. Freeman, the pres- ent rector of the church. and the Rt Rev. Luclen Lee Kinsolving, Bishop of Brazil, who was acquainted personally with Dr. McKim for many years. Standing fn the tower vestibule, Rt. Rev. Alfred Harding. Bishop of Washington; the vestry and clergy of the parish’ solemnly ~dedicated the tower and chimes in the course of the exercises, while the congregation stood in the auditorium. Prayer by Bishop Harding. Bishop Harding, pronouncing the prayer of dedication, sald: “Almighty Father, who dost permit us to devote things made with hands to Thy holy service; mercifully ac- cept this tower and chime of bells set here to Thy honor and glory and, for the help of men. Sanctify them, we beseech Thee. to their sacred uses. and grant that they may ever stand here as a witness to Cnrist and His church. “May they turn heavenward the thoughts of all who sojurn or labor in this neighborhood, and likewise of those who pass this way by day or by night. May they assist them so earnestly to seek those things which are above that they may serve Thee more perfectly here on earth and faithfully prepare themselves for the Joys sna privileges of the holy city. We ask these things for the love of xhy dear son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. men.” 3 Henoree's Spirit Felt. ‘The spirit of Dr. McKim seemed to hover over the entire church edifice, located on G street between 13th and 14th, and to pervade the auditqrium during the course of the unusually impressive services. Dr. Freeman, in making a statement a8 to the tower and chime and the purpose to which they are dedicated. declared that the congregation met to do honor to the memory of one who had served a generation with rare distinction. He said that it seemed most fitting that such a memorial be created on a busy highway in the National Capital. ‘What is more fitting to symbolize those things for which Dr. McKim stood than this tower standing fo square to all the winds that blow Dr. Freeman =aid. ‘The order of service was opened at 10:20 o'clock this morning by the playing upon the chimes by Thomas G. Spence, secretary to Dr. Freeman, of “Just As 1 Am,” “Blessed Be the Tie That Binds,” and “How Firm a Foundation,” as the congregatlon was thering. The processional hymn, ‘en thousand Times Ten Thou- and,” was sung by the congregation as Bishop Harding, Bishop Kinsoving, Dr. Freeman and the others in the procession marched from the parish house down the aisle of the church to the altar. Nicene Creed Repeated. Psalm XXIV was read by the rector and the congregation, following which the Nicene Creed was repeated. Ia ers for Dr. McKim were then said b. the rector. following which he made the statement of the purpose to whicn the tower and bells were dedica‘ed. In the coursze of this statement, Dr. Freeman sald that he was bound 10 think of Dr. McKim as an upstanding man as well as an outsanding man. *I always think of him in terms of a tower” said Dr. Freeman. I think of him as a tower of strength standing on the highway to greet men as they come and go.” The tower, he said, symbolized the strength and character of Dr. Mc- Kim. The chimes every day speak his message o the people of Wash- ington. Dr. Freeman said that it was his privilege to>present the tower and chimes to the people today. “May those of us who follow him catch something of the spirit of the man'” Dr. Freeman said simply. Then Bishop Harding., the vestry and clergy of the parish, proceeded to the tower vestibule, while the congregation sang “For All th Saints Who From Their Labors Rest.’ ‘The Bishop of Washington made the solemn dedication as follows: “In the name of God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit amen. L Alfred Harding, by divine permission Bishop of Washington, do solemnly bless and hallow the tower and chime of bells of this church. I do hereby set them apart from all profane and un- holy uses, and I dedicate them to the services of God and man and to the memory of Randolph Harrison Mc- Kim, priest and doctor.” People Remain Standing. Here the people remained standing, ‘while the voice of the bishop saying the prayer of dedication floated down the aisles. Following the prayer, the Doxology was sung, and the bishop and clergy returned to the chancel, following which all sang, kneeling, the hymn, ““And Now, O Father, Mindful of the Love.” A particularly affecting moment came when the last stansa of this hymn was sung, when the chimes, muffled, accompanied the congrega- tion as it sang. Many in the con- gregation shed tears during this por- tion of the hymn. The order of the holy communion followed. and after the gospel came the singing of “How Firm a Founda- tion.” . Bishop Kinsolving then entered the pulpit and delivered, from his long and intimate acquaintanceship with Dr. McKim, a tribute to the departed rector, who was pastor of the church of the Epiphany from 1888 to 1920. Dr. McKim’s Life Sketched. Bishop Kinsolving sketched the life of Dr. McKim, from his birth in ‘Baltimore, April 15, 1842, through his graduation from the University of Virginia, June, 1861; his segvice in the Confederate army throughout the war, the last year of which he served a8 chaplain; his studies for the min- istry: his ordination to the diaconate in 1864; advancement to the priest- hood in 1865, and his various rector- ates, culminating in his service in his city. : Bishop Kinsolving declared that the chimes of the church flung a me- morial, mossage far over the dyn'e was & knightly man” Bishop Kinsolving said. The speaker de- clared that his was not so much the service of an orator as that of = friend. He sald that all those gath- red in the church this morning on & busy workday to tell Dr. McKim of their love for him were the real ora- tors of the occasion. Bishop Kinsolving told of the life of Dr. McKim from the days when he first met him as rector of the Christ Church at Alexandria, Va. The bishop pointed out that Dr. McKim was a fotal abstaimer and that he had caught the vision in this regard long before this nation determined upon total prohibition.

Rosalie’s condition had im- proved late last night to such an ex- tent that physicians belleved she could be brought to a hospital here. The girl was still in a high nervous state, however, and no effort was made to gain from her the story of her two days’ wandering through the forests. The abduetor of the girl, Raymond E. Wilson, entered Marquette prison today, where he was sentenced *to serve from thirty-five to forty years Crowds Threatening. Amid the cheers of hundreds of angry citizens crowded into and sur- rounding the circuit court ehambers here yesterday Wilson was found zuilty of the kidnaping. The court axpressed the regret a life term could not be imposed. Thirty minutes later Wilson was on his way to prison, heavily zuarded by deputy sheriffs, who fear- ed throughout the day that they might be unable to cope with the crowds that followed the proceedings and at times became threatening. The kidnaper disposed of within twelve hours after hig arrest, Mus- kegon turned to the relief of the child, who was reported slowly recov- ering from mistreatment and ex- posure.

C. BUILDING LAW IN U. S. SUPREME COURT Payment for Party ‘Wall Subject of Dispute Between Property Owners. The building laws of the District of Columbia are invoived in a case be- fore the Supreme Court of the United States—Ernest G. Walker agt. Gene- vieve K. Gish—in which a brief was filed today by S. Herbert Giesy, coun- sel for Walker. It appears that Genevieve K. Gish owned & two-story house which has been constructed ~with a nine-inch party wall next to property pur- chased by Walker. The latter desired {to use it to build a three-story house. Under the building reguiations it was impossible to use the nine-inch party wall It was necessary either to tear down the wall and erect a new one or to build the wall altogether on Walker's property, which would still leave @ part of the Gish wall also on his property. Mr. Walker undertook to erect a nine-inch wall up to two stories and then widen it to thirteen inches. Genevieve K. Gish demanded payment for the party wall, which was resisted by Walker.

Declares “Wets” Failed to File Campaign Expenses. The Nattonal Association Against the Prohibition Amendment has filed no re- port of campaign expenditures in the congressional__campaign, although it has indorsed 249 candidates for the Sen- ate and House and presumably has worked in the interest of some of tem, Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the Anti-Saloon League. charges .in a statement issued by him. The state- ment said, in part: ““The public indorsement of 249 con- gressmen and senators by the National Association Against the Prohibition ‘Amendment, coupled with their boast- ful program to defeat dry congressmen and their failure to file any report of expenses incurred in the congressional campaign under the federal law, should destroy the confidence of the people in the good faith and inclination to cbe- dience to law of this wet organization. “I can see readily why they did nmot give out the remainder of the list whom they indorse. As soon as the first list was announced, congressmen and sena- tors began to repudiate this nullification indorsement. Senators from Nebraska and Utah, congressmen from Mississippi, Indiana, Ohio, Missouri, Oklahoma and many other states not only refused to accept the wet label, but announced that they were against any weakening of the national prohibition act as long as the eighteenth amendment i in the Constitution.” . ’ | )
