Lieyd George went almost directly to the House of Commons on his re- turn’ from Hythe where he spent the .

Premier Briand desired the harsh- est possible action if Germany refused to offer reparations that could be ac- cepted. He proposed that the rich Ruhr valley be invaded at the earliest possible moment without further par- Jey. He desired that the region should be worked by French engineors and its government administered by French officials. pe ae ‘NOTE NOT RECEIVED » IN WASHINGTON; DELAY IN CODING IT Document Said to Be Very Lengthy —May Not Be Given Out Here. : WASHINGTON, April 25.—There ‘has been an unexplained delay in the transmission from Berlin of the G man counter proposals on reparations which were handed last night to Amerivan Cuuunissivues al athe German capital, State Depart- ment officers had expected to have the document before them at the be- ginning of dusiness to-day, but when they arrived at their offices they wound that it had not been received. "Phe German memorandum was un- derstood to be lengthy, and if such was the case it probably was not put on the cables until very late last night as considerable time would ve been required for coding it. Probably an equally long time will be necessary for its decoding after its arrival here. In advance of the recoip: These of the document, administration officials de- clined to eomment on its rported contents, nor would they indicat whether it would be made public im- mediately after its arrival, It was generally expected, however, that the text would be withheld unt * tary Hughes could confer with Yreni- dent Harding and with the French and British Ambassadors, As the forenoon wore away without any sign of the German note, officials ~ Degan to be puzzled regarding the de- lay.

Freight Yards. of the Court of General Seavions made an announce ment from the bench to~iiy which 1s calculated to make persons who have teen arrested for selling or possessing liquor sit” up and take notice, Said the Judge: “It has been «tated that grand Juries would be refuctant to find in- dictments and petit juries would fail to convict In cases of violation of the State Liquor Hinforeement Law. The fact is that the Grand Jury of this court las already found more than 100 indictments and there $s no doubt petit juries will convict when the evi- dence warrants conviction. “Now I have my own opinion about the action of the Legislature in pass. ing the Mullan-Gage Act, but as a Judge it would be improper for me to express it, Whatever we may think ebout the law, it is the law, and the people of this county must come to the realization that they cannot themselves up as persistent law break- orn “In view of the vast amount of ex- tra work which will be thrown on the courts by the enforcement activities, and the terrific expense that will be piled on the already overburdened tax- payers, the courts will extend 1 clemency to offenders who plead guil- ty and furnish satisfactory assurance that they will discontinue defiance of the law, But offenders who plead not guilty and put the county to the ex- pense of a trial must prepare them- selves for the severest penalties pro- vided for in this severe law. “| may say in this connection that the Grand Jury has given careful consideration to every case presented. It has refused to indict in many in- Judge Melntyre, stances because the facts did not promise reasonable assurance of ‘conviction. ‘Therefore, it is reason~ able to assume that in each of the 100 or more cases where indictments have been found the probabilities of conviction are yery strong.” Judge Mcintyre suspended sentence on Trophin Skutzna, who pleaded guilty to vuying and drinking liquor in an East Side saloon, Skutzna was tyre directed that Skutzna be taken before the Grand Jury to tell where he bought the liquor that got him into trouble, Police Commissioner Enright spent half an hour with the Grand Jury to- day, It is understood the conference was for the purpose of coming to an agreement on the sort of evidence the police should obtain before mak- ing an arrest with a view of sending to the Grand Jury only cases where a reasonable certainty of indictment exists. The time of the Grand Jury has been wasted by consideration of numerous cases which did not call tor indictment. Deputy Police Commissioner Leach announced to-day that the police had arrested 90 persons and seized 1,035 bottles, 61 cases, 60 cans, $1 barrels, 14 jugs, 2 stills and 1 keg for liquor vigiations from Friday midnight to Saturday midnight, and that 55 ar- rests were made for the following 24 thours and ecizures of 19 bottles, 8 barrels, 61-2 cases, 2 jugs, 1 demt- john amt 1 can New York Central by Police Inspector George Leibers, of the 7th Inspection Writ Filed by O’Brien Imme- diately After Members Are Sworn In.

Parker, Cor- poration Counsel John O'Brien went to the chambers of Justice Delehanty, No, 51 Chambers Street, and obtained an order calling upon the members of the new commission to show cause why an injunction should not be is- sued restraining them from perform- ing the functions of their office. The order is returnable Wednesday morn- ing before Justice McAvoy. At the same time Mr. O'Brien ob- tained an order calling upon Transit Construction Commissioner John Delaney to show cause why an in- junction should not issue restrain- ing him from turning over the books and records of his office to the Transit Commission, ‘The object of this Is to enjoin, if possible, Mr. De- laney from giving up his office until the constitutionality of the new tran- nit law is settled by the courts. Inasmuch as the proposed injunc- tion against the members of the new Transit Commission applies to State officers they are entitled to their day in court, and the injunction cannot tssue until anruments are heard. It 1s anticipated that both sides will be fully prepared when Justice McAvoy takes up the matter Wednesday in Part I, of the Supreme Court. ‘Tho compliant prepared by the city {s a }wok of sixty pages, the support- ing Mdavits form a book of eighty pages and the exhibits—such as con- tracts between the railroad companies and the city~make a volume of 500 pages.

Wood on Way From Miami on 41-Hour MIAMI, Fin., April 25.—Somewhere In the Atlantic Ocean this morning Garfield A, Wood, wealthy sportsman ot New York and Detroit, at the helm of his 60-foot 900-horse power cabin cruiser, is speeding northward in a race against the Havana Special, fast- | est train of the Atlantic Coast Line, with New York as his goal Wood's boat, the Gar IL. Jr, and the | flier sped out of Miami at midnight in the 1,240-mile dash, the first of its kind on record. Aboard the Gar with Wvod is C. F. Chapman, editor of Motor | Boating. | The Gar has a ten-foot beam and Is equipped with two 490-horse power | Liberty motors. Official timers here and along the route will record the progress of the Gar and keep it informed of condi- tions, At the editorial office of Motor Boating it was said to-day that the Gar LL is expected to make = th stops, the first some time to-night at St. Mary's, 8. C., 360 miles fro: the starting point; the second at Cap Fear, 660 miles; the third at Norfolk, Va., 970 miles. The run one at the Columbia Yacht Club, 1,20 miles from Miami. Since the boat carries a crew of only two men in addition to Mr. Wood and Mr. Chapman, it is under- stood that there will be no night running, and instead of trying to ar- rive ahead of the train, the race will be rather against the train's elapsed time. ‘The Gar II. was finished last Sep- tember at Algonac, Mich., by the C. C, Smith Boat and Engine Company for Mr. Wood. She was shipped by rail to Jacksonville. Last winter she won the championship for boats of her kind. In 6ix one-mile dashes she made an average speed of 41.8 miles an hour. In two mile dashes on a cireular course she averaged 32.4 miles an hour. The round trip between Miami and Palm Beach, 129 miles, she covered at 32.8 miles an hour, and from Miami to Key West and back, 156 miles, her average was 31.2. Mr. Wood, tt is said, plans to drive the craft to Detroit, after completing the run to New York. He intends to try for a new record from New York to Albany, and if arrangements can be made to facilitate rapid passage through the locks of the Erie Canal, | will pilot the cruiser across Lake Erie and up the Detroit River to its berth at Algon: Mich. piss eins La ‘For Repeal of Guarantee to Ratl- reads. ‘WASHINGTON, April 25,—Ropeal of the guaranteed return to the railroads under the Transportation Act 1s pro- vided for in a bill Introduced to-day by Senator Capper, Kansas.
