An American who recently visited a village near this city saw a magni- ficent concert grand piano in a one room hut which sheltered a peasant tamily of six. The family's cooking utensils were stacked on top of the ings i { piano and a small pig was tied to one of its legs. Under the ikon which corner the visitor saw a number of glittering objects which upon closer inspection proved to be the silver fit- tings from a man's toilet case. The handsome Russia leather case from which the toilet articles had been taken was lying on the floor filled with cow feed. / BULLET IN HIS BRAIN Removal of Slug Is Expected to Clear hung in a Up Mind of Troublesome Convict at Joliet Prison.

Burglar Finds It Good to Keep Win- dow Glass From Falling 19.—Fly paper came into use here last night as a first aid for burglars. William O'Brien, who asserted he came here from Buffalo, and was "out of money, out of work and desperate,” is said by the police to have confessed en- tering a flat and using fly paper to prevent fragments of a broken win- dow falling and giving warning of his presence. When captured he was carrying a suit case, alleged to con- tain clothes, a fur coat, manicure sets and silverware belonging to the ten- ant of the burglarized flat. New York, Jan. GHINESE RAILROAD POLICY TAKEN UP American and British Proposals Under Consideration Today Washington, Jan. 19 (By Assoclat- ed Pr )-~The American and British proposals for promoting an equitable development of raiiroad facilities in China formed the subject of discus- sion for today's meeting of the arms conference [ar stern committee. Except for brief statements by Secretary Hughes and Sir Auckland Geddes in submitting them to the comn- | mittee, neither the American resolu- tion by which the powers would rec- ord their hope for an eventual unifi- cation of the transportation lines in China under Chinese control nor the | British proposal to pledge the powers against discriminatory practices on roads under their control was dis- cussed yesterday, and it remained to- day for the other powers to record their attitude on both. While in neither proposal was there any exclusion of either the Shantung or Manchurian lines in approaching the railroad proposal the committee agreed to the suggestion of Secretary Hughes that the question of the Chin- ese eastern rallway be reterred to a special sub-committee of Far Eastern experts for separate consideration. It has been indicated that retention of the present control of this line trav- ersing the border between Manchuria and Siberia by an inter-allied commis- sion would be recommended in view of the unsettled conditions in Russia. Although the Chinese delegates re- served the right to call up again the provision of the American open door proposal which would have authorized an inquiry into existing concessions in Chind, it was the general impression among the délegates today that this had been permanently sidetracked when it was stricken out of the resolu- tion yesterday before adoption of its other provisions. Despite the view of many delegates that this fauture constituted the most sweeping provision of the American plan it was represented as the opinion of the American delegation today that its elimination did not materially weaken the effect of the resolution as there would still be opportunity under remaining provisions for examination of existing concessions, where both parties agreed to it. 7 FIGURING. Cotton Fibres Sliced to Less Than One Five Thousandths of Inch. Providence, Jan. 19.—Cotton fibres can be sliced into sections less than one five thousandths of an inch thick for microscopic examination and pho- tographing, under a system perfected by Prof. Walter H. Snell and N. O. Haward of the botany department of Brown university. Development of this method will open a new field of scientific investi- gation in the cotton industry, accord- ing to Prof. Snell, who says that in- creasing attention is being devoted to the action and penetration of various classes of dies into both fibre and yarn and the effects of dyeing processes, mercerization and sizing.
