The date and place of the hearing | are as yet indefinfte, Captain King stated. Tt will probably be held here, and if not here, in Portsmouth, N. H. The day of the inquiry will probably be delayed” until after the vessel has been hauled off or the salvaging operations are temporarily abandoned, it was said.

AMERIGAN SHIPS TORUN GAUNTLET Ordered to Brave Guns ol (Chinese Forts if Necessary ‘Washington, Jan. 28.—American vessels in Shanghal waters have been ordered to escort American or British merchant ships which de- sire to leave Shanghal.at night even in the face of guns of the Woosung roz commanded by Geheral Wang, mong other ships, the American naval craff are guarding the steam- ship Belgenland, which has 400 I‘,\merimn tourists aboard. | General Wang has advised Rear !Admiral McVay, commanding the |American Yangtze patrol forces, that the Woosung fort will not fire on |foreign vessels entering or depart- ipg from Shanghal during daylight. Admiral McVay replied that his gov- ernment desires Shanghal kept open {to commerclal ships and that he will |furnish convoys at any hour. | The admiral's report to the state {department did not say what he |would do if commercial ships were | ifired upon but it is assumed here that he would permit no damage to be done to them without prompt re- | taliation, The Belgenland is anchored off the | Woosung fort with an American de- |stroyer nearby prepared to protect | her. | Another Brlllsh river steamer in | | Shanghai waters:was held up Satur- day by Chinese who searched the [vessel and took off two Chinese pas- {sengers. MEANS 15 GIVEN SEVERE GRILLIN Felder Also Subjected to Rigid Questioning New York, Jap. 28, — Gaston B. | went a vigorous cross examination [today at their trial in federal court on charges’ of conspiracy to bribe government officials, “Did- you ever say, ‘I have talked with Attorney General Daugherty |and will see his deputy Crim in a {few days and have the indictment | thrown out'?” the prosecutor asked | Felder concerning the Crager system | mail fraud case. “Did you say, ‘this | would have been done long ago if it | hadn't been for lawyers who have | been saying I'm a fixer'?" “I never had such a conversation,” was Felder's answer. Means, recalled to the stand, de- nied that he ever had testified, dur- ing last year's proceedings at Wash- ington, that his dlaries stolen. “Not all of them; only some. T testified that men alleged to have been sergeants-at-arms of the senate came to my house to g(l certain dlarfes.” Judge Martin Manion of the U. 8. circuit court of appeals and former Governor Thomas W. Hardwick of Georgia appeared as character wit- nesses for Felder. Simon Herr, former partner of Joseph O, Kostner, Chicago alder- man who has figured prominently in the testimony, asserted that Kostner ‘rn!urnnd to Chicago after a trip to |New York during which he consult- ed with Felder. “Kostner told me that Felder sald that $10,000 must be forthcoming in |the Glass casket mail fraud case,” testified Herr. ‘With objections. to every question | put by Prosecutor Todd, the witness was allowed to testify as to another trip which Kostner made to | York, “After his return,” said Herr, “he told me that the defendants in the ‘ Glase casket case met in Felder's of- fice with Felder's partners and a | man by the name of Means and that the sum of $47,800 was turned over to a man name Felder's partners.” I [Short Skirts Will Be Style for the Women fan Franclsco, Jan. 28.—Seven | American dictitors of style, meet- ing here, agreed today that the lony skirt for women in 1924 “was flop.” 'The short skirt has returned. according to P.

Mr. Anderson not only produces an_ exquisite velvely tone from his instrument, but adds a sure and unfailing technic.

Being of a rather bashful temperament he like- wise did not return to the stage for the rite of bowing—to the,audience, not on the instrument—but he was permitted to know that there was an ccean of appreciation out in front.

In the Godowsky “Fambourin” and the Szalit “Inter- mezzo” she enunciated & fluent teehnic that elicited as much tone variety as s possible upon the instru ment. But it was in her last num- ber, the closing contribution to the program, that she made use of every' resource at her finger tops, This was a Sternberg “Etude.” There are three kinds of etudes, those that are hard to listen to but have techni- cal value, those that have technical value and are easy to listen to, and those which in reality are concert numbers and under any other name would sound just as sweet. The etude under discussion came under the lotter category. . The pianist's supple, it not subtle, scintillations in passage work, subordinated to melodious themes that were prom- inent throughout the plece, made of it an ideal concert offering, Its melodies were so good that if Mr. Ziegfeld’s musical machinists ever for the had every both hers | sponse.
