The court's first “$udges were clected in September, 8921, Tt held its first organization peeting in January, and in June of last year it began its sesslons for ¥he hearing of o During the months of July and. August, the court delivered three cach concerning quecstions of juris- diction submitted by the International Labor Office at Geneva. The princi- pal decision was that the competence -of the International Labor organiza- on extends to international regula- tion of the cenditions of agricultural employment First Real Dispute. S The Arst real fonal dispute submitted to the court was presented on October 2, 19 It was a con- _troversy between Great Britain and ‘France over the nationality laws of Tunis and Morocco—the kind of dif- ferneces that in the past have been -traditional breeders of war. Later .some of the powers that signed the treaty of Versailles quarrelled re- garding the precise status of the Ilel canal, bisecting Germany be-| tween the Baltic and North seas. .That dispute, too, it is planned to have threshed out before the perma- nent court of international justice. Secretary Hughes in 1922 made two significant and prophetic references to the action he now has recommended President Harding to take. On July 13 in a public statement Mr. Hughes aid he saw “no prospect for any treaty or convention by which we should share in the maintenance of the court until some provision is made by which, with- cut membership in the league, this gov- ernment would be able to have an ap propriate voice in the election of the judges.” Three months later, in his campaign speech at Boston on October 30, on behalf of Senator Lodge, Mr. Hughes expressed the belief that “suit- able arrangements can be made for the participation by this government in the election of judges of the international court which 'has been set up, so that this government m give its formal support to that court as an independent tribunal of international justice.” Plan for Participation Sought. Since thit time. as the Harding- Hughes correspondence submitted to the Senate ind the administration has given unremitting attention to ways ana means for America adhesion to the court. Mr. Hughes' belief that the plan and organization of the tribunal were acceptable, and that American co-opera- tion is desirable, has been of long standing. President Harding, having been convinced that our membership ean be secured without danger of league | “‘contamination,” induce the Senate to g ing “consent and advice. In anti-league quarters the view finds expression that President Hard- ing h uddenly put forward the world-court project in order to have & “talking point” during his forth- coming political tour. Senate irrecon- eilab! suggest Mr. Harding wants to use it when taken to t administration’s so-called ing” foreign policy. Thi tation of the President's motives is ajsproved by the evidence. above n rated, that Secretary Hughes has been working on the world-court idea for many months. the next step was to ‘do-noth- interpre- Hostile Action Expceted. As irreconcilable hostility is likely 1o be centered on the recommenda- tion that the United States designate representatives to act with the coyn- cil and assembly of the league in electing judg t is_interesting to ote the origin of the scheme for B aving: those bodies fulfill that func- tion. Elihu Root is the father of the arrangement. At the conference of international jurists convened by the Jeague at The Hague in 1 to or- ganize the court, Mr. Root brought up the example set by the framers of the American Constitution in dealing with the principle of ecquality states. He suggested that the coun- il and assembly of the league might ‘properly collaborate in the election of Judges, who would thus become the choice ‘of both large and small states. The Root proposal was adopted. It was his chief contribution to the project. Although the United States, like other nations not members of the league, xlways has had the right to #eek the court's jurisdiction, it has not helped to finance the tribunal. ‘We have not paid -any of the salary of the American judge, John Rassett Moore. who was cliosen by the league. It is estimated that the entire cost of the court in 1923 will not exceed $400,000. _Anticipated by Prominent Lawyer. One of the foremost authorities on the permanent court of international justice is Manley O. Hudson. the bril. nt young professor of international Jaw at Harvard Law School. Hudson, who was attached to the international Jaw division of the American peace mission at Paris, anticipated in a December magazine article almost in ddtail the conditions under which Secretary Hughes now proposes American adhesion to the court. Writ- ing In “Forelgn Affairs,” Prot. Hudson said: “It may be concluded that the neces- sity for having a voice in the elec- tlon of the judges need not preclude jmmediate action by the United States i we desire to share in maintaining the permanent court of international Justice. “The conditions set by Secretary Flughes (at Boston on October 30) would seem to be fully met if an American representative should sign the court protocol, with a clear in- dfoation that the United States signs nOt 88 a member of the league, but 78 a state mentioned in the annex 10 the covenant; and If the President whould ratify the protocol, with the advice and consent of the Senate, with veservations . (1) that the United States shall enjoy all the privileges enjoyed by any other signatory state and shall be admitted to participate in the voting in the assembly and the cbunoil When those bodies act, not under any provisions of the covenant; but as the electoral bodies named in mrticle 4 of the statute of the court; and (2) that the United States does ot by this act become in any way & party to, or bound by, article 14 or &ny other article of the covenant of the league of nations. ** Avolds Commitment to League. *\“Such a ratification would give the United States a full voice in the elec- tlon of judges, it would avold any commitment to the ledgue, and it Tould grestly enhance the prestige d moral poweMof the court for ture. . “One does not need to be under any iMusion® as to the importance of egurts in the political life of the world to think that: a great oppor- tunity {s now offered to America, and Seoretary Hughes' statement of Octo- ber 30 gives promise that it will not be- neglected.” & (Copyright, 1923, Sy o Corrisne, 1923.) « correspond- | for the| of | Dreaming Miner Rolls to Death From Top of Car By the Auoclnnd Press, DRAKESBORO, Ky., February 2. —Ray Schultz, thirty-five, & miner, * Is dead—the victim of a dream. Schultz was sleeping on top of & loaded. coal car yesterday, when he dreamed he was in the path of an approaching locomotive. -He rolled from the top of the car and struck in the bottom of a mine pit seventy- #ix feet deep.

With a bullet in his head, Police- man Fred G. Stange, fifty-nine, lles near death in Emergency Hospital today - as the result of a shot fired by Precinct Detective Thomas O'Don- nell of the fourth precinct, who was pursuing Stange and Ruby Downs, another policeman, in an automobile near 4!: street .and Maine avenue early this morning. According to unofficial statements of police department officials, O'Don- nell followed the men from in front of the fourth precinct on I street southwest near 6th street, after they had detached a bumper from an au- tomobile that had been confiscated in a prohibition case. The chase went down I5 street to 41 street, up 41z street to School street, and thence up 6th street to Maine avenue, where the automobile in the lead turned and headed for 41: street. aring the corner, according to po: Stange reached out over the side s if to throw away the bumper. O'Donnell fired. The bullet passed through the rear of the machine and entered Strange's forehead, taking ef- fect in the brain Scant Hope to Live. Dr. Borden at Emergency Hospital today held scant hope out for his recovery. Stange’s pulse is weak and his condition precludes possibility of operating, it was said. He had made no statement as to the occurrence to police at noon today. The case will be put up to the district attorney by Capt. Ira Sheetz of the fourth precinct, the captain announced today. What the provi- signs are for handling a case in which one policeman shoots another during the chase admittedly were beyond the grasp of the police officials and they said today they would ask for a ruling and directions on further action from Maj. Peyton Gordon, dis- trict attorney Maj. Gordon this morning had not been presented with the details of the case by the police. Speaking from a hypothetical viewpoint, however, he declared that his office would not countenance the firing upon a fugitive in a case of misdemeanor before ar- rest had been effected nor would he exonerate a policeman from responsi- bility in such a case. He made it plain that this was on a hypothetical basis, however, and reiterated. that the case had not been presented him officially as yet . Sergt. John Maloney of the fourth precinct today filed an information in Police Court against Downs and Stange charging them with larceny from the District of Columbia. The se was continued to March 8, owing to the condition of Stange. O'Donnell continues on duty. Stange and Downs are under suspension {pending an investigation. Police of {the fourth precinct today took steps in Police Court to obtain warrants charging larceny from the govern- ment in the case. This would put the breach in a class of felony. The two men are understood to be relatives by marriage, Capt. Sheetz declared this morning, although O'Donnell is but twenty-eight years of age. He was appointed to the force on December 7, 1918, and had breviously served in the Navy. Stange was appointed a policeman on July 3, 1896, just a year after the birth of the man who fired on him during the early morning hours today. Bumper Cannot Be Fou Ona peculiar point coming to the fore today was that the bumper in the case had mnot been recovered as yet. Where it has disappeared to is a mystery. Stange was about to throw it from the machine, accord- ing to reports, when the bullet struck him. Section 233 of the police manual iprovides that policemen “shall not juse their baton or revolver except in the most urgent cases of self-defense jand when the circumstances justify !such action. Later, though, the manual state: f a felon, such as a murderer, resists and flees from those iWho try to apprehend him, it he can- inot otherwise be taken, they may lawfully kill him.” : Whether the ‘“circumstances justify jsuch action” in this case and whether a felony had been committed, there- fore are two of the principal points g; ’(:Dgsi:ler&!‘!‘nnllo be placed before aj.

NEW YORK, February 26.—Govern- ment agents and the police bomb squad, who are seeking the owner of the cache of machine guns, grenades and car- tridges found in the basement of a lower West Side house last Saturday, today admitted they were baffled. ‘They have learned that Arthur Loewinger, proprietor of a seaman's supply store in Hoboken, N.

Spooky had lived there so long that he felt quite as it the Old Orchard belonged to him. During the day he slept most of the time, unless the day happened to be very dark and gloomy. Then some- times he came out early in the after- noon to hunt. Often he would sit in his doorway watching With his round, fixed eyes for a careless or forgetful mouse to show himself. He was doing this late one after- noon when he saw Black Pussy the Cat from Farmer Brown's house come sneaking through the OId Orchard. A glare of anger came into the eyes of Spooky as he watched. The Old Orchard was his hunting ground, and Black Pussy had no busi- ness there. “I wish T was as big as my cousin, Hooty the Great-horned OWL" mut- tered Spooky angrily. “Then I'd teach that cat a lesson, 1 would so. Goodness knows, it is hard enough at best to get food enough to eat without havihg it stolen by that black robber. She has all she wants to eat. She's 5o fat now that it's a disgrace. I'd just like to drivemy claws into her. T would so. But I don't dare. I‘m too small. T wonder what she thinks she is going to get here anyway."” Black Pussy continued to sneak along until she .was near a cer- tain tree near the one in which Spooky was sitting. Then she crouched down on the snow and sat there for the longest time motion- less save for the tip of her tall Every once in a while this would twitch. Spooky guessed right away what she was doing. She was watch- ing a certain little hole in the snow close to the trunk of that tree. It was the hole of a Mouse. Spooky knew all about it. He had watched that hole more than once. He knew that Black Pussy was waiting for a Mouse to_come out of that hole. So for the longest time Black Captured Vessel Terrorized By Mutineers and Stowaways By the Assoclated Press. VANCOUVER, B.

You see watching that hole and sat in his Pussy. SHE WAS WATCHING A CERTAIN LITTLE HOLE IN THE SNOW CLOSE TO THE TRUNK OF THAT TREE. Spooky wanted that Mouse himself. He felt that if any one was to catch that Mouse he was the one who should do it. He needed it, and | Black Pussy didn’t. Once in a while Spooky would snap his bill with anger. Otherwise he didn’t move. - Finally Black Pussy gave up and went away. Spooky came out of his home and flew up in a tree where he could watch her. He made sure that she had gone back to Farmer Brown's house before he himself started out hunting. The next day the same thing happened. It happened again the day following. Black Pussy was forming the habit of coming over to watch that Mouse hole late every afternoon, Every afternoon Spooky statloned himself in his doorway to watch Black Pussy. And every day he grew a little angrier. If angry looks could kill, Black Pussy certain- ly would have fallen dead right where she crouched. But angry looks can't kill, and Black Pussy dldn't even know that she was being watched. And still no Mouse came out of that hole while Black Pussy was there. (Copyright, 1923, by T. W. Burgess.)

Joined by nine members of the crew, the party, most of them heavily armed with revolvers, told the Japanese captain that they would be in charge of the voyage. All of the mutineers were Japanese. There was no resist- ance on the part of the ship's officers or the thirty remaining members of the crew. For ten days the ship was under the sway of the stowaways and nine crew members.
