In this connection, however, it is to be expect- ed that the buying of grain here and transporting it will not mean depriving the starving people of the food that is needed.

From the prompt manner in which the house has disposed of the matter it is to be expected that the senate will give it early attention. The amount of good that can be done will be governed by the speed with which it can be gotten to the suffering, realizing of course that this assistance implies in no way recog- nitlon of the soviet government but sim- ply a desire to relieve suffering human- ity, And at no time:could it better be done than at the Christmas season.

But today inside information as obtained by your corres- pondent from high demoeratic sources wiich cannot be made public at this mo- ment showed a blg determined under- ground movement by senate democrats to prevent ratification. They will attempt this even though in so doing they sac- rifice their chosen floor leader, Under- wood of Alabama and their former lead- er, Hitcheock, of Nebraska. Underwood is one of the American delegates to the conference and Hitchcock has already declared for the treaty. Opposition to their stand might depose them from par- ty leadership, but democrat opponents said today “there are others who can lead.” Strong advocates of the Wil- son treaty said today in confidence that their names would not be used that they are ready to fight the Harding treaty to the last ditch even though they sac- rifice their senate leaders and turn tur- tle on the question of an agreement with foreign nations. Coupled with the re- cent statement made by close friends of Mr. Wilson that he “had advised dem- ocratic senators to go slow in ratifica- tion of treaty “this newly discovered at- titude of oortain powerful democrats senators has caused alarm in -genatorial circles where quick ratification was de- sired as a means of promoting future peace and a lessening of the terrific ex- Dense of naval armament. One demo- crat senator sald today “We won't go into any sort of an agreement with for- elzn nations unless it embraces them all, and is on the same grounds as the Wil- son treat.” Commenting on this a mem- ber of the foreign relatalons commit- tee said “The countr demands an ef- fort towards permanent peace and lm- itation of armament, and an effort to- wards permanent peace and limitation of armament, and I feel sure the fenate will not fail to do its part to bring It about through prompt ratification.” All the same information that there is a WALL STREET'S MYSTERY. It is & year and three months since the country was appalled by the fright- ful Wall street explosion. There have been opiinons as to what it was intended for and efforts have been made to locate those who were responsible. The affair has taxed the efforts of the authorities, Arrests have been made but no prosecu- tions have been attempted and invaria- bly those who have been detained have been released after a short time, What would have been expected to furnish clues to the guilty partles have fafled, or at least it has not been possible to get them, although it is to be realized that the authorities are in touch with many inside details about which the gen- eral public knows nothing.

When only 13 she was wed to Robert, Earl of Essex, a boy hardly older than herself. Later they were sent to school and When aft- erward they met, the frivolous young co- quette gazed upon a grave young cour- tler graceful and a perfect knight. Seven years after the marriag, Essex met a mysterious death. It is still open to argument Whether he Wwas murdered | by his keeper while waiting in the lieu- tenant's house or whether he fell by his own hand. Frances Howard had many followers Who were bewitched by her beauty, among them, Carr, a young favorite of the King, the Earl of Somerset, and Sir Thomas Overbury.

Another disreputable charac- ter, one Richard Weston, was made 2 keeper, by Sir Thomas Monson, Who, how-, thought it best to first consult the Privy Seal—an act of prudence to which he afterward owed his life. From the night of Weston's installation Overbury's strength began to fail. Though his of- fense was only a contempt, he was con- fined more strictly than men who were condemned to die. Helwyss, however, seems to have gotten “cold feet” for in- stead of administering the poison as in- structed he poured it into the ground, but stiil some jellies and sweetstuffs that the enchantress sent were dellvered and each one was poisoned. Then James Franklin, an apothecary, sold some poison to Frances Howard, who gave It, to Lobel, a French apothe- cary, and Reeve, his English boy who were opointed to do the deed. When ali was ready Lobel made the glister, which his apprentice, Reeve applied. Overbury was dead. Exactly eight vears later to the day when Frances Howard as a child, had married Essex, she and Somerset were married amidst great pomp and cere- mony. Not long after the FEarl of Northampton died from a sore in his side in time, but only just in time to save himself from the fate to which he had sent so many—a cell In the Tower. Rumors began to circulate to the effect that Overbury had not died a natural death and to crown all, the apothecary’s lad, died in Flanders with the news on his lips of the work he and his master had been hired to do. 2 Then followed a long series of trials which involved nearly all the nobility of Britain. Helwyss made a confession was hanged in chains on Tower Hill, and his gibbet left to stand a warning for wrongdoers. Mrs. Tarner who had inti- mate knowledge of the plot, was hung at Tyburn, and Franklin and Weston ‘were strung up like dogs. Papers were selzed from an inn, “The Beaver Hat,” and sufficient evidence to hand the Lord and Lady thrice if the king had so wani- ed. But instead they were Both held and sent to the Tower. ' The cell occu- pied by Overbury being the only one va- cant, Sir George More bade them enter, “Put me not in there,” shrieked Frances, lvid with horror. “I shall never sleep again, his ghost will haunt my bed.” She was then carried back to her apartment until Raleighs place in the garden could be prepared for her.
