APPEARS AT HALIFAX Gaptain and Cook, Wounded, in Gloucester--Crew Sail Boat’ Halifax, N, S, Aug. 22.—The Nova Scotlan schdoner J. Scott Hankerson for which the United - States coast Buard has been looking since she was boarded by rum pirates off Rockport, Mass., on Monday and her captain and cook wounded, appeared at anchor this morning off Yarmouth harbor. Because of the heavy sea, communi- cation with the schooner could not be had, The pirates boarded the schooner off Rockport in a motor boat known as the Greyhound, with a record, as a rum runner in New York waters, The motor boat was found abandoned near Gloucester. Moore and the cook were landed by fishermen who answered the Hanken- son's distress signals. The rest of the crew apparently then sailed her to Nova Scotia. Gloucester, Mass,, Aug. 22-—Captain schooner had been peddling rum. Efforts to confirm through cook and captain that pirates had obtained profits reaped through rum running locked in the skippers' safe failed, Glocester, Mass., Aug. 22.—Captain Arthur Moore of the schooner .J. Scott Hankenson, dangerously wound- ed by rum pirates off the Cape Ann coast ,passed a fairly comfortable night at a hospital here, Although he is still in a critical condition some hopes are expressed that he may ne- cover. Harry Harm, ship’s cook, is convalescing from wounds received in the attack on the vessel. The police of Gloucester and Rock :ort are busily engaged in running own possible clues to the men who boarded the schooner, discharged their revolvers and then fled in their motor boat apparently without taking anything of great value from the rom runner, It is generally belleved here that the attack was made by north shore men who had previously bought part of the vessel's cargo. Accord- ing to Harm, $ 15,000 received from such sales had been deposited in a Gloucester bank before the attack The abandoned motor bhoat, brought in here yesterday contained Iittle to assist the police in their effort to es- tablish the identity of the pirates. Earlier reports that the pirates who boarded the schooner and shot the skipper and his cook, Harry Harm, obtained a large sum of money from the rum-runner’s safe and the cap-| tain’s purse, could not be confirmed. | Profits in Bank. | The cook, in hospital with hullet ‘wounds in his neck, shoulder and both legs, told the city marshal vesterday that the pirates could not have taken more than 850, that the captain’s personal funds, amounting to $400, were intact when he was landed at Rockport late Monday night by fish- ermen who responded to the Hanken- son’s distress signals, and that the profits of the schooner’s rum cruise, estimated jat $15,000 had been brought ashore and deposited in a bank some time before the pirate attack. Tdentifies Boat, Capt. Moore, too gravely wounded to tell his version of the struggle, was able to identify photographs of a 35- foot motor boat, K-12113, found abandoned off Jeffries Bank and towed to this port yesterday as the wvessel used by the seven or eight pirates who boarded the Hankenson. This craft, which has a record in the rom running business in New York waters, 18 known as the Greyhound. It was well known to the prohibition authorities until its seizure off New York in November, 1922, with a cargo of whiskey. Later it was sold by the government and passed from official notice. The Gloucester police claimed to have evidence that the Nova Scotia schooner had been lying off this port for some .time and had disposed of large quantities of liquor to shore boats. They were working in the the- ory that the pirates had had dealings with the schooner before and for that reason were allowed to approach and board the vessel without protest as possible customers. | The motor boat K-12113, reported | to have been used by pirates to board the Nova Scotia rum runner J. Scott Hankenson off Rockport, was identi- | fied by customs authorities here as | the Greyhound, until recently one of the thorns in the side of the enforce- ment officers patroling the rum fleet | off Atlantic Highlands. | The Greyhound was captured by, the coast guard cutter Hansen No- vember 11, 1922, a cargo of whiskey | valued at $20,000 seized and her crew | of two arrested. She was sold at auc- | tion by the government on January 23, her purchaser giving the name of “Joe Jones” and his address as 41| Spring street, Manhattan. Prohibi- tion officers said they knew nothing about Jones and had not heard of the Greyhound since her sale.

In the text of the note Premier Ioincare, replying in numbered para- graphs to the communication of Mar- quis Curzon, frames his answers in a tone less sharp but no less categorical, reaffirming the French resolution a hundred times repeated not to re- nounce one centime of her reparations claim which is regarded as sacred and which does nnk “resemble any other claim." | He repeats the determination of France not to give up the pledges she holds until after complete pay- {ment of reparations has been m Referring to the proposed ro-e mate of Germany's capacity to pay, the reply says: “We confess we are unable to un- | derstand what the British govern- fment means by capacity of pnym»ntfl and present capacity of payment, Ger- many's is equal to nothing by will of the emipire itself. All expert calcila- tions are useles The note then asks: ‘“‘Does the British cabinet want to | suppress Germany's debt entirely un- der the pretext that her ecapacity for payment has bheen provisionally anni- hilated 2" ; Premier Poincare ‘replies very pointedly fo Lord Curzon's intimation that Great Britain may soon be oblig- ed to ask France Lo pay her war debt.

The premier repeats the assurance that Irance will attenuate the occu- pation of the Ruhr if Germany ceases her resistance, and that She will eva- cuate the Ruhr in proportion as pay- ments are agtually made. “¥rance will not change her atti- tude on evacuation,”, the note asserts. “To ask her to do otherwise would be to justify the attitude of Germany and in the words of Lloyd George before the sapreme coungil in March, 1921, ‘it would be the victors who would pay the cost of defeat and the van- quished o would harvest the fruits of victor In London, By The Assoclated Press London, Aug. 22.—In the absence of Premier Baldwin, Lord Curzon and other cabinet members no expression of official opinion regarding Premier Poincare’s latest addition to the repa- ration issue was forthcoming today.
