Hopes a settlement at an early aate appeared to be based chiefly upon the attitude of E. F. Grable, president of the maintenance of the way emploves union, who came to Chicago today from Washington where he held a conference with Fresident Harding Mr. Grable said he would confer with the members of the United Railroad TLabor Foard here to get support to prevent carriers from requiring maintenance ot way men to do strikers works. He alfo said he had called a meeting of the brotherhood's grand lodge held in Detroit Thursday Another indication of a drift toward reace was seen in the statement R. A. Henning, general chairman of the federated shop crafts of the north- west, that only the refusal of eastern rcads to agree to reinstate striking shop crafts workers with their full geniority rights was preventing a set- tlement as far- as the roads of the northwest are c erned Strike May Extend. for States Possible extension of the strike was | forecast in the statement of Willlam Tarker, head of the eastern chairmen of railway workers, that local officials ir eastern centers were having diffi-| holding the maintenance ot way men at their jobs.

Little is known concerning the conversation that pass- ed between them, but the police say they have found that Gilbert uttered threats which led Mrs, Gilbert to leave the park and hurry to her father's home Mrs. Gilbert and her sister, Miss Olive Logan, had not yet gone to bed when, about 12 o'clock, there was a knock at the front door. Mrs. Gil- | bert went to the door. Two revolver shots rang out, Miss Logan found her sister lying at the door dead. Two | bullets had entered her heart Gilbert and his brother, \Myrle Gil- | bert, were found at 3 o'clock Sunday | morning at Port Vue, near Versailles, and both were arrested |FRANCE TO DEMAND ALLIED CONTROL s That German Finances Be Under Jurisdiction of Debtor Na- | tions From Now on. Paris, July 17, (By Associated | Press).—France will demand before |the reparations commission that the stringent control over Germany's fi- nances is an absolute necessity in the future, it was indicated in officia) quarters today. The French government's attitude |toward the reparations tangle was re- |flected as being that it is necessary |to state to the world that Germany ihns wilfully gone bankrupt, that she |could have avoided it and that the |right of the allies to impose military, economic and political penalties be insisted upon before there is any talk of granting the former enemy a mor- atorium on her reparations. Premier Poincare had a long con- versation with President Dubois of the reparations commission yesterday, land it is understood the latter ex- iprr=ss-=r! the strong opinion that Ger- | many's present failure is almost en- |tirely due to wilful fallure to insure | financial stability and the proper col- |lection of taxes Germany the current year, paper marks on her railways, 600,000,000 on workmen's houses, 2,000,000,000 on telegraph and telephone extensions and 500,000,000 on canal works, ac- cording to information now before the commission LEAVES SCOVILL TO GO INTO BUSINESS is spending during 7.700,000,000 George Hogaboom of Stanley Street, Plating Expert.

Despite the shakeup in the club, the locals dropped another game yesterday The St. Mary's girls' baseball team will play the Colt girls' team of Hart- ford at 8t. Mary's field tomorrow eve- ning. The game will start at 6:46 o'clock. So far this season, the locals have found the Hartford team too much for them, but there is a con- fidence that the result tomorrow will bé different. It was the second beating the Knights suffered in two days, the Winsted club putting across a white- wash on Saturday 3 to 0, in the town of great happenings. Carl Restella was unequal to the occasion on Saturday being touched up lively in the first inning, the Win- stedites scoring thre runs. McCormick stedites scoring 3 runs McCormick and he as usual turned in one of his excellent games, preventing the home club from adding any runs to their total of three. The latest statistics of the Eastern league secretary show Jim Thorpe to be batting at a .406 clip. Elmer Bow- man of New Haven has replaced Johnny Nagle of Springfield as the league leader. The race for the National league pennant is getting warmer. The Giants are now threatened with being re- placed by the St. Louis Cardinals. The Chicago White Sox are prov- ing the sensation of major league baseball. Not considered as even a first division team, when the season opened, Gleason's men are now in third place. The Sox prevented the Yankees from going into first place on Baturday and yesterday they again took the measure of the Hugmen. Jim Thorpe got back into the Hart- ford lineup on Saturday and immedi- ately the team commenced to win. Yesterday the Senators defeated the New Haven Profs twice at Weiss Park. We have not witnessed any better plays in some time than those con- tributed by Kilduff and Dumschott yesterday. Both of them were in slang parlance ‘'pips."” About the only interesting thing at vesterday's game was some informa- tion from a well known young tennis champion, in these parts, that he knows where there is some good beer. If a stranger was to attend the game and not know one club from the other, he might opine that the Kaceys represented the A. §. I). school. The results of the games in the City league at St. Mary's fleld Saturday are are follows: Independents 7, Mount Pleasants 3; Colonials 12, Dodgers 2. The home boys may be unable to hit the ball in a manner that will win ball games, bur they can at least inject some pep into the battle when in the field Stevle Dudack played very good baseball in left field yesterday. One thing can always be said about Stevie, he is in the game all the time to win The §t. Mary's girls' team will hold a practice at 6:45 o'clock this eve- ning at St. Mary's fleld. Two games are scheduled this eve. ning in the $120 league at St. Mary's field, are follows: Nutmegs Red- woods, Glendales vs. Columbias. Captain Bob Roper and Fred Fulton will meet in the ring at Newark, N. J. this evening. Gene Sarazerh of Pittsburgh, win- ner of the national open golf cham- pionship last Saturday at Skokie club links, formerly acted as a caddy at the Brooklawn Country club, Bridgeport. Ownie Carroll, the Holy Cross twirl- er, added to his fame yesterday when he held the Detroit Tigers to three hits at Windsor Locks. The Collegians in reality the Holy Cross team, down- ed the American leaguers, 9 to 2. The Boston Red Sox experienced little difficulty in beating the New De- | parture team, 9 to 2 in an exhibition game at Bristol yesterday. The council of the Irish Olympic Games has decided to gostpone the meet scheduled next month at Dublin until 1923. This action was occasion- ed by the refusal of the Americans to participate in the games. Plenty of interest is being manifest- ed in the golf tourney at Shuttle Meadow club on Wednesday (all day) for the benefit of the Fresh Air Camp Fund. Practically all of the best play- ers in this city will be competitors for the three handsome cups, to be awarded the winners of the carded events. The grand circuit has shifted to Kalamazoo, Mich., where a five day program will be conducted this week.
