No decision as tb this, however, had been taken up to 8 o'clock this afternoon, A meeting of the Debt Commission this afternoon was attended by the Russian experts, As private property is the basic subject of the conference, from the standpoint of the foreign delegates, all seemed to think further deliberations of the conference would be useless, President Patyn announced that further discussion seemea useless and brought the conference to a sudden close after two hours of debate in which Sir Phillp Lloyd-Greame of Great Britain and other of the non- Russian delegates persistently tried to get Maxim Litvinof? and his asso- ciates of the Russian delegation to answer questions regarded as essential to have cleared up, These related to the plans for the restoration of foreign property confis- cated by the Soviet regime and the probable time required to rebuild Russia, Just as at the Genca Conference the chief bone of contention was the and with an unnecessarily coarse thread. “Was the style of darning the same fm both these handkerchiefs and the ones found on the body?"

CUSAMANO PRA, ASSAILS THE JURY Committed Sacrilege in Find- ing Innocent Man Guilty, He Tells Court. Santo Cusamano was sentenced t> death to-day by Judge Talley in the Court of Feneral Sessions, following conviction by a jury of participation in the kidnapping and murder of little Giuseppe Varotta thirteen months ago, and there are now three men in the Sing Sing death house awaiting execution for this crime and two more in the Tombs awaiting trial for murder. Cusaman> was on his way to Sing Sing in the custody of Sheriff Percy Nagle half an hour after sen- tence was pronounced. Because of threats that have been made against Judge Talley on account of reported reflections by him upon the character of Sicilians, extraor- dinary precautions were taken to in- sure order during the pronouncement of sentence upon Cusamano. Court officers at first agreed to search everybody entering the room for weapons. Later it was agreed that no one was to be allowed in the court- room who was not personally known to or vouched for by some one per- sonally known to the attendants or policemen on duty. Cusamano was greatly frightened. On the way across the Bridge of Sighs from the Tombs he dropped to his knees, shrieking prayers and pro- tests, Hy a great effort he braced up when he reached the courtroom and walked to the bar of justice with his shoulders thrown back and his lps moving in prayer. After the usual motions offered by Joseph Rosalsky, Cusamano’s counsel, had been denied Cusamano was asked if he haa anything to say. Through an Interpreter he replied: “The Jury has committed a sacrilege in finding an innocent man guilty," As Judge Talley sentenced Cusa- mano to die in the week beginning Aug. 21 the prisoner, grasped the rail in front of him and his eyes showed the terror that possessed him, For in all probability he really be- lieves he is innocent, although it has Continued on Eighteenth Page.) IMMURED AT ROCKAWAY Thomasino Admits Meeting Her at Resort—Denies Rest of Story. Joseph Thomasino, thirty - three years old of No, 38 Osborne Street, Brooklyn, married and owner of @ dozen houses in the Brownsville sec- tion and in East New York, was to be arraigned in the Gates Avenue Police Court to-day on charges of ab- duction and commission of a serious ime. He was arrested at 4 A. M. to-duy by Detectives Joseph Fennelly und John McLaughlin of the Atlantic Ave- nue station on complaint of Mrs. Stella Kozel, seventeen yeurs old, 4 bride of four months, who lives with her husband, Romaine Kozel, a taller, at No. 1331 St. Mark's Place, Brook- lyn, Mrs, Kozel 1s a blonde and very pretty. She told the police the follow- ing story: After her marriage to Kozel they lived at No. 88 Osborne Street and she Was annoyed by attentions from Thomasino. She told her husband of this, and they moved. On last Satur- day night she sald she went to a neighborhood store and there met ‘Thomasino, who showed her a re- volver and ordered her to get into a taxicab with him. He threatened to kill her unless she obeyed and she complied. In the taxicab, she said, he showed her two revolvers and said: “IT want you and I will have you or I will shoot you and then kill myself.” They went to Rockaway Beach in the tuxicab and she said Thomasino took her to a house over a store, where he held her prisoner until yes- terday afternoon. During all this time, she says he kept a revolver near him and threat- ened to kill her if she made an out- cry. Finally,’ yesterday, upon her promise to meet him at least twice a week, he permitted her to go to her home. She told her husband what had occurred and he took her to the At- lantic Avenue Station, where she told her story to the police. Detectives went to Thomasino's homé last night, but he was not at there. When he came early this morning they placed him under ar- rest. ‘They searched his home with- out finding the two revolvers. Thomasino vigorously denied the woman's story. He said he had met her Sunday afternoon on the Board- walk at Rockaway Beach and thc: they had talked in a friendly manner, after which he had left her. He de- nied having a revolver and also de- nied that he had kept her in a room at Rockaway Beach. pial Pesos MORSE ORDERED HERE FOR TRIAL Must Face Charge of Plot- ting Fraud in Steamship Stock Sale.

Financier, Whose. Wife Died in November, Forfeits Two Houses Here. The marriage of George J, Gould to Mrs. Alice Sinclair a week ago in Paris created a great stir among] friends of the Gould family when it} was announced to-day. It is under-| stood that some members of Mr. Gould's family, Mrs. Carroll Wain- wright, the former Miss Edith Gould, especially, had been Informed of the marriage several days ago. Mrs. Wainwright was quoted to-day as saying she was much pleased. A cabled message to a close friend of Mr. Gould outside his family was un- derstood to have been the authority for making the marriage public. By this marriage.Mr. Gould loses his life interest In the home at Fifth Avenue and 67th Street and the house ut No, 177 East 67th Street. Mrs. Gould in her will left these houses, which bad been given to her by her husband, and all the furnishings and art treasures to Mr. Goul’ ‘during his life or until he re-marries,” when they were to become part of the residuary estate to be divided among: their seven children. Mra, Sinclair is a strikingly beauti- ful woman of the blond type. She appeared frequently at the opera and at concerts and was seldom if ever seen in the after- theatre crowds at the restaurants or at the cabarets. She owned several motor cars of the high priced type. The home of Mrs. Sinclair, on Manursing Island, at Rye, is one of the largest and finest in that part of Westchester County. It is on the north end of the island and was once the McLaughlin estate, owned by a publisher who died several years ago. In front of the house the lawn slopes to a 20-foot seawal to protect the property against the occasionully wild waves of the Sound, Below the wall is a large pier for motor bouts and such craft, In the house and about the ex- tensive grounds a corps of from forty to sixty servants is employed. When a few years ago the reclamation of 27 acres of sall meadows was under- taken about two hundred men were employed. This work now has been completed. It was sald In Rye to-day that Mrs. Sinclair had lived in that community for about five years and that she went abroad about two months ago. She lived in the great estate on the isinnd, it was said, with two little children and an army of servants, Mr. Gould and his bride are said to have taken a place in Invernesshire, Scotland, and it 1s not likely New York society will have a chance to xreet her before November. Most of the Gould children will probably have visited thelr father and his bride be- fore their return. Mrs, ‘Vainwright will go over with her husband within the next few weeks, and Jay Gould, a son, who sulled last Saturday, {s believed to be on his way to visit his father and Mra, Gould, Mrs. Anthony J.

HELD IN READINESS IN RAILROAD CRISIS Ordering Oa of Regulars Called Inevitable as Disorders Spread. $$ rornirremieiadin tin By David Lawrence. (Special Correspondent of The Eve. ning World.) WASHINGTON, July 12 (Copy- right).—Raguests from all parts of the country are reaching the Government asking for the appointment of hun- dreds of deputy marshals to ist in the enforcement of Federal laws which make it an offense for any one to in- terference with the mails or interstate commerce. President Harding's proclamation, however, doesn't make it a matter for the Department of Justice merely but for the War Department and all other agencies which can command a re- spect for the law. The use of Federal troops Is inevit- able. President Harding and his ad- visers are loath to usc them, as they would rather have the civil branch of the Government carry out the law processes of the Government, but the inadequacy of civilian officers, such as marshals and deputies, is already ap- parent. The Government is apprehensive that the situation will grow worse, chiefly because strikers in the past have not understood the laws which they are violating. Most of the lead- ers seem to be under the impression that moving the mails is essential, but if other trains are stopped or de- layed there is no penalty. The oppo- site is true. For the laws of the United States are just as explicit with ence to the movement of passen- ger and freight trains as mail carriers. No warrants have gone forth as yet to arrest ieudere or strikers, but in the 1894 strike such a ste, became necessary, as there was wholesuie disregard of the law and wrecking of trains. Perhaps the best exposi- tion of the law which the strikers are confronted with was given by Judge Ross in his famous charge to the Grand Jury 1.. Los Angeles just twenty-elght years ago this month in connection with the Debs strike, He said; “A railroad which is a link in a through Ine of road for the trans- portation of freight and passengers into a State from other States and from that State to otlier States in engaged in the business of interstate commerce, and every organization cr conspiracy in restraint of such trade or commerce is by statute decla to be illegal, and all persons so com- (Continued on Eighteenth Pag Real Estate Ads. — FOR THE — Sunday World MUST be in The World Office | FRIDAY Before 6 P.

CHICAGO, July 12 (Associated Pr 8).—A programme for solution of { }the railroad shopmen's strike was drawn up to-day by Chairman Ben W. FEDERAL TROOPS «Hooper of the United States Railroad Labor Board after conferences with leaders of the shopmen and was submitted to representatives of the rail- way executives fom four sections of the country at noon to-day. No definite reply to the proposals was given Chairman Hooper how- €ver, by representatives of the railways executives. The executives said they would notify Mr, Hooper of their answer “later.” Chairman Hooper said his chief purpose i meeting with tae executives was to arrange a conference between them and B. M. Jewell, leader of the striking shop- men, and he indicated that the attitude of the executives was disappointing. SHOPMEN 10 (BEY PRESIDENT'S ORDER ON INTERFERENCE Will Refrain From Work, However, if Every Mail Train Stops. Obedience to the President's pro- clamation calling for non-interference with rail transportation, to the letter was decided upon at-® special meet- ing of the local strike committee at the Hotel Continental to-day, ac- cording to Chairman J. J. Dowd, who gaye out the following statement: “The shopcrafts strikers In the met- ropolitan district will of course obey to the letter the President's proclam- ation,” the committee said. ‘We bo- lieve, however, that the precise mean- ing of the document should be more clearly defined. To this end we have adopted the following interpretation: “The President mentioned our ‘in- disputable right to decline to work.’ We believe that this right is superior to any Presidential preclamation. We assume, therefore, that the Prest- dent did not intend in other parts of the document to impute illegality to our refusal to work, even if mail trains should be annulled as a direct result of our refusal. “The shopworkers in the Port of New York will continue on strike un- til a satisfactory settlement ts reached, even if every mail train in the dis. trict 1s cancelled. On the other hand, acts of violence or the physical tnter- ference with the movement of trains will not be tolerated by this commit: tee.

Ea McMenimen, tabor member of the board. The promise of the executives to receive the shopmen's proposals through Chairman Hooper is under- stood to have been communicated to Mr. McMenimen by the President. When Chairman Hooper left the Labor Board office for the meeting with the four executives, he said was confident some plan of sett ment could be reached quickly. He said he expected to call President Harding on the telephone with a re~ Port on the success of his conference with the railway Presidents. The peace negotiations have been in progress since last Saturday night, when Chairman Hooper and B. M. Jewell, head of the shop crafts, were brought toge her for the first time since the walkout of ten dsys ago. From the secret peace conferences bas come a rather definite conclusion as to what may be done to effect a settlement While beyond issuing brief and rather non-committal state~ ments, Mr. Hooper and Mr. Jewell de- clined to discuss prospects. Reports indicated that the strike will be called olf if these four things are done: If the carriers agree to wipe out the ‘stem under which some roads bave let out work to con- tractors not within the jurisdio- tion of the Labor Board and, therefore, not bound by its de- cisions on wages and working conditions. If some arrangement for modi- fying certain working rules which cut the overtime pay of shopmes: ts made. If President Jewell gets assur- ance that his organization will not be denied a rehearing by the Labor Board on the wage issue, If the rallroads agree to estab- lish the boards of adjustment provided for in the Transporta- tion Act, but which the carriers have steadfastly refused to com- sider, Of secondary importance tn the strike situation {s the meeting scheduled here to-day between the rail executives and the heads of the Big Four Brotherhoods, The meeting Is definitely called for the purpose of preventing the train service men from becoming seriously involved in the strike through being compelled to do the work ordinarily performed by men now on aetrike, There have been many complaints and in some cases discharges from service growing out of orders to do strikers’ work.
