Bolivia has indicated she would re- Guest that the league refer to a com- 1dission the question as to whether competent to revise the treaty stween Bolivia and Chile relative to Tacna and Arica. After last night's conference, Senor Aramayo said that the president of the assembly had re- fuséd to glve any assurance that the question would be referred to a com- mission. President Van Karnebeck ld Senor Aramayo the assembly could not place itself in the danger ous position of tacitly going on record as being competent to revise treaties. Jio declared that such a course would ablish a precedent for possible re- vision of the Versailles treaty and would cause grave alarm in France and other allied countries. During the conferencé the president of ths league made an effort to hava Bolivia con- zent to an indefinite postponement, but e failed of success. French Reports. It was reported in French circles that Bolivia had agreed not to bring the question before this meeting of the sssembly. This has been denied by Senor Aramayo. Today's meeing, therefore, opened with considerable anxiety over the matter, and the proposal to take up the next order of business was sald to depend upon last minute attempts 10 compromise the differences between tile two South American republics.

FINED FOR USING ABUSIVE LANGUAGE Genev Press.)—Leading sambly of the L Sept Plainvilie Case Given Hearing—Inter- Developed While in Court. esting Facts (Special to The Herald) Plainville, Conn., Sept. 7.—Wflliam Webber of Whites Crossing, Plain- ville, was fined $1 and costs in the Plainville court thfs morning for breaoch of the peace and using abusive language. Justice Edward P. Prior heard the case while Grand Juror Wil- lidm J. Foran prosecuted. Lawyer J. G. Wocds appeared Yor the accused. Webber” was accused of using abu- sive language by Miss Persis Cheever, a resident of New Britain, but former- ly having lived at the Sunnyledge cottag> at Sunset Rock, a short dis- ance from the Webber farm. Miss Cheever claimed tha® Webber had in- sulted her while she was walking past the house. The case was a long drawn out onc and during 1s procedure, some interesting facts were developed. It disclosed the fact that Miss Cheever had moved into the Sunnyledge cot- tage with her moth nd brother, without the knowledge of the owners The cottage is owned by a New Britain associztion. Their presence was dis- covered in the cotta nd the ecar taker called to havc then: put out. They agreed to pay rent for the time they had lived in it and two rings and a luvalliere were given as security The argument rted, according to the Cheever story, when Webber cused them of stealing his corn breaking down his fence. However, between the two of them, and Miss Cheever's brother, Franeis, there ap- peared- to have been a lively debate and some vile langunge passed. Wit- nesses called to the stand claimed that they had seen many New Britain men ¢oming from the direction of the house at a late hour nights, but could not ert whether or not they had been in the house. The fact that the Cheevers had moved into the house without authority from the owners, looked black for them, but Webbet 1 undoubtedly insulted them, ac- cording to the testimony given and he was given the alove fine with pay- ments of the court.

Texarkana, Ark., Sept. 7.—Four masked men last night held up a Kansas City Southern passenger train between Bloomburg, Texas, and Tex- arkana and looted the mail car of all valuables. The express car ahd the passenger coaches were not en- tered. F. Woodson, the engineer of Shreveport was knocked over the head with the butt of a gun. E. Moss, a negro porter was shot in both legs. Postal officers declined to estimate the icot. About a mile north of Bloomburg the bandits entered the cab and commanded the engineer to proceed to the bridge across the Sulphur river where a stop ‘was made with all but the locomotive and the mail car on the bridge. Two mail clerks in the car resisted the command of the bandits to open the car, whereupon a small gas homb was thrown through the transom, the zas compelling the clerks to open the door. Meanwhile .Engineer Woodson had been knocked out and Moss a negro porter shot. Fireman B. T. Ryan of Shreveport was made to uncouple the mail car after which the robbers took one of the clerks to the cab, two bandits re- maining in the carn with the other clerks. A run then was made to the outskirts of Texarkana, the car being lcoted enroute. After the bandits left the car the engineer at their command went back to the Sulphur river bridge for the remainder of the train before coming in to roport the robbery.

Gilpatric reported that he had made a trip to Boston and discussed® with expert statisticians the best .nethods of conducting the in- vestigation, and was prepared to rec- ommend the plan submitted above.

He had no par- ticular men in mind, but felt that the mayor could secure the proper indi- viduals. ’ The present commiittee will continue in_existence unless the investigators desire otherwise and will be privileged to keep ‘in touch with the investiga- tion through the mayor.

Herzald “Ads” Mean Better Business PRICE THREE CENTS Assembly Of The League Of Nations Hears Senor Edwards On Tacna— Arica Affair [Chile Wanted Matter Si- lenced Without Debate, Whereupon Both Sides Produce Orators. Gencva, Sept. 7. — (By Associated: Press)-—The assembly of the leagua of naticns at its session this morning’ postpoued again discussion of the re- quest of Bolivia that the long disputtd question of the provinces of Tacna and Arica, now under tha administra- tion of Chile be placed on the agenda of the assembly. The discussion was put over till a later date on the suz- gestion of the new president of tha assembly, H. A. Van Karrebeek, the Dutch loreign minister. Chilean Delegation on Floor. Wht: today's session opened August Edwards, head of the Chilean delegu- tion, took the floor and declared that the seavest of Bolivia ought to ba re- jected withou: debate. In an eloguent speech Senor Ed- wards defined Chile's position as un- compromising on this question. He recalled that the president of Bolivia had declared he would respect the treaty of 1904 between Chile and Bo- livia, revision of which Bolivia has asked the assembly to take under con- sideration. Edwards on 1904 Treaty. The incompetence of the league to™ revise the treaty of 1904 was the prin- cipal argument of Senor Edwards speech. He declared the covenant of the league of nations provides for the revision of inapplicable treaties only. “Can anyone pretend that this treaty under which we have lived in peace for 17 years, is inapplicable ?”” he ask- ed. Senor Edwards characterized the action of Bolivia as a “maneuver” to escape the obligations of a treaty con- cluded in due form. Referring to Bolivia's contention that the treaty had been imposed by torce, Senor Edwards said: “But what treaty of peace has not been tue result of the victory of one adversary over another? If the league were called on to revise all such treaties it would have to make over the map of the world.” Access to the Seca. Replving to Bolivia's argument that she is deprived of access to the sea, Senor Fdwards recalled that Bolivia, able to import fully through Chilean ports not only products but arms and munitions at the same time was mak- ing a demand for revision of the treaty. Recalls Uniting Ties. Addressing himself directly to Car- los Aramayo, head of the Bolivian delegation, Senor Edwards cried: “Let me recall the many tiés that united us. Let me say to you that Chile wants them to hold, and I hope you will not’ persist in an attitude that risks the breaking of them.' Senor Aramayo sat impressive and did not betray that the Chilean dele- gate’s words had jnade tIN slightest impression on him. Treaty Unapplied. Then Senor Aramayo presented Bo- livia's viewpoint. He said the treaty was, in the opinion of the Bolivians the result of 29 years of pressure. “That treaty,” he cried, “is not only irapplicable but it is, in fact unap- plied. There can be no hope for per- manent peace in South America so long as that treaty remains unre- vised." Senor Aramayc then proposed that Bolivia's application for revision be sent to committee for investigation and report. le claimed this proce- dure would be reguldr under the rules ot the assembly. 5 President Poincare Mentioned. In conclusion, Senor Aramayo quot- ed from former President Poincare of France as giving the opinion that the league of nations was competent to deal with such questions. Deme- trios Canelas, brother member of the Bolivian delegation followed Senor Aramayo's sober presentation of Bo- liv with an argument at- tempting to prove the competence of the league and summarized the treaty of 1904 between Bolivia and Chile pointing out clauses which he assert- ed had not been carried out by Chile.
