PUT BRAKE ON SALES OF OLD CITY PROPERTY Foes in Council Join Hands to Defeat Move for Hasty Disposal. ONE AUTO SET AT $25 City councllmcn counted as supporters of the aumlnistration of Mayor Charles W. Jewett Joined with anti-administra-tion members at the regular meeting of the council last night to defeat a move for immediate consideration, under suspension -of the rules, of an ordinance authorizing the board of public safety to dispose of approximately SIO,OOO worth of city property said to be obsolete. Councilman Gustav G. Schmidt declared he thought the council ought to be informed who the bidders were or might be on some of the property listed In a report of appraisers which accompanied the ordinance, but President Russell Willson ruled him out of order. Before he sa down, however, Mr. Schmidt managed to state: “I refer to when Buick automobiles were sold by the city for $25 each and checks given In payment which could not be collected on." Some of the Items In the appraisers’ report which attracted Mr. Schmidt's attention and caused him *to make the statement Included a valuation of a Cole touring car at $65, a Ford roadster at $25, a hose wagon at $5 and several fire engines at SIOO each. The appraisers. J. J. Schmid, real estate dealer; A. B. Carter, real estate dealer, and Roy L. Zaps were appointed by the Circuit Court some time ago. ACTOMOBII.ES ALSO APPRAISED. They appraised not only the property which the board of safety desires to sell, but also six automobiles under control of the board of public work*. An ordinance authorizing sale of the six cars also was Introduced, but suspension of the rules for It was not asked. The total Valuation of the six automobiles Is $225. Included In the report on the board of safety property are appraisals of ninetyfive horses to be sold as rapidly as they are displaced by the motor equipment now being bought," Forty of these animals have been replaced to date and George W. Williams, executive secretary for the board of public safety, in a let-" ter asking for Immediate consideration of the sale ordinance, said it Is costing the city S4O a day to feed them while they stand idle. Dwtght S. Ritter, city purchasing agent, has stated he has an Immediate market for these horses. The appraisals on them In general are high, It was stated. When the motion to suspend the rules was put, Councilmen Schmidt and Louis "W. Carneflx, anti-administration,, and President Willson and Jesse E. Miller, administration members, voted against It and It was lost. The ordinance then was referred to the committee on public works. TRAFFIC MAST RE ’AMONG ORDINANCES.

United States by charges which the people of this country will accept as a matter of course. The British nation would regard any suggestion for the remittance of our debt to America as highly derogatory to thelf national honqr.” It was learned from an authoritative source that the British treasury more than a year ago communicated to the United States Treasury a suggestion that the British debt be canceled, Britain at the same time canceling the debts owed It by other European nations. This was [ turned down. America maintained that payment of Britain’s debt could not be made contingent upon payments of other nations’ debts to Britain, payment of the German Indemnity, or any other consideration, that It was an affair concerning only Britain and the United States. This matter, It was stated, has frequently been the subject of diplomatic exchanges. OFFICIAL REPORTS RELATIONS STRAINED LONDON, Feb. B.—All American correspondents In London were called to the British foreign office yesterday to a conference with an Important figure In Anglo-American relations, who insisted that his name should not be used. The official discussing Anglo-American affairs declared that relations are more strained than would appear on the surface. "Questions under discussion by the two countries can be settled easily through the usual diplomatic channels,” he said, "while commercial disputes, we will always have many, none of which cannot be settled, can be disposed of similarly." He declared the Anglo-American peoples are drifting apart, largely because of lack of comprehension of the other country’s situation. "It Is Inconceivable," he said, "that these two great nations on which go much depends should drift toward a breath and become Involved in war, yet that Is the path we are treading. An Anglo-American war would be a calamity of the first magnitude of the world.” BAKER SAYS WAR TALK PREPOSTEROUS WASHINGTON Feb. B.—"lt is preposterous; I can scarcely believe it," said Secretary of State Colby, commenting on a press dispatch which quoted an anonymous official of the British Foreign Office with Saying that "Eng.and and America are treading the pathway that leads to war.’-’ Officials declare there has been no turn in tbe relations between Great Britain and the United States which could have Justified such a statement and they were Inclined to doubt the correctness of the story. SAYS EUROPfT IN U. S. CLUTCHES LONDON, Feb. 8. —Uncle Sam was pictured in Great Britain today as a loan shark. J. Taylor Peddle, an authority ow finance, asserting that continental debts to America must be cancelled If economic disaster Is to be prevented, declared the United Slates has Europe in her clutches. “Europe Is In her power Just as completely as the poor victim of a loan sharp In the tenement districts,” Peddle declared In an interview. "If the United States cancels European debts the situation will be eased considerably. If she does not Europe will sink rapidly to ruin because she will be compelled to live on her capital. "A little study of exchange rates by your American financiers will show Brittain’s untenable situation. “At present rates she is pay 10 per cent on her borrowings. France is paying 23 l>er cent; Italy, 40 per cent; Berlin, 123; Vienna, 602, and Warsaw, 1,040.” SENATE COMMITTEE FOR DEBT PAYMENT WASHINGTON, Feb. B—Secretary of the Treasury Houston failed to appear before the house Foreign Relations Committee today to explain the present status of the $10,W0,000,000 foreign loans made by the United States to Its associates in the world war.

STEEL MEN OFU. S. WILL MJSETHERE Society for Treating Metal to Bring 10,000. The American Society for Steel Treating will hold Its annual convention in Indianapolis at the fair grounds, Sept. 119 to 26, It was announced today by John i B. Reynolds, general secretary of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. 1 The convention will bring between ten | to fifteen thousand persons, according to Mr. Reynolds. At least $1,000,000 worth of appliances and machinery for treating steel will be on exhibit at the fair grounds. The convention was secured for Indianapolis by the local chapter of the American Society for Steel Treating, with the cooperation of the Chamber of Commerce. J. W. Smith is the secretary and organizer of the Indianapolis chapter. There are more than three thousand members of the organization scattered throughout the world, made up practically of technical men from manufacturing institutions. The 1920 convention was held In Philadelphia and the 1919 convention In i Chicago. The national headquarters of the society are in Cleveland. Lieut. Col. A. E. White, University of Michigan, president; W. IT. Eiseraann, Cleveland, secretary, and W. S.

Judgment to the sheriff of Marion County, who Is charged with execution thereof." Judge Sparks came to Indianapolis yesterday after a conference on the telephone with Prosecutor Evans and made the final entry against the Haags. On the specific request of Prosecutor Evans, Clerk William Kiser carried out the trial court's orders and delivered the copy of the order and the commitment to the sheriff's office. Chief Deputy Sheriff Anson Wlltsle j takes the position that something more j than a commitment is needed to get the Haags in the custody of the sheriff. He Is of the opinion that the bondsmen should be compelled to bring the Uuags Into court or that a bench warrant bo Issued. Even the bend side of the case has Its part In the legal tangle According to ! Mr. Wlltsle, Attorney John Uuckelshaus [ was the main surety on the appearance | bonds of both of the Hangs at the time the Haags were waiting trial in the Criminal Court. The records in th% Criminal Court shows that Andrew Steffen, former cigar manufacturer, who lias since died, was on the S2,WO appeal bonds cf the Hungs to tho Supreme Court. This appeal was dismissed by counsel while the Haags were In prison l}t Atlanta. Now the .question Is whether Mi. Ruckelshnua Is responsible for the dei livery of the Haags or is the estate of Mr. Steffen responsible for the delivery of the defendants Mr. Wlltsle Is of the opinion that Mr. Ruckelshaus, as the main surety, is the one responsible at this time. Prosecutor Evans, who is now conducting the prosecution of Mrs. Inda Myers I for murder. Raid that he "would look Into i the bond tangle." Judge Sparks, when here, said the regular judge of the court, who is Judge Collins, had the power to see that the ageuts of his court carried out the orders of the trial judge. Mark Storen, United States marshal, was unable to find the Haags yesterday when he called at their Pennsylvania street store to demand payment of more than $22,060, representing flues of $10,600 Imposed upon each of the brother* last June try Judge Anderson, together with costs and Interest. Saturday Fred T. Cretors, chief deputy United States marshal, made a demand for payment, but at that time they asked for a delay until Monday nnd promised Mr. Cretors they would come to the office of the United States marshal, Mr. Storen, Monday morning. They have never put in an gppearanee. Mr. Storen seemed inclined to aw'ait the action of the local authorities in their efforts to apprehend the Haags, but he said emphatically that he would not tolerate any lengthy delay and would take further steps very soon It they evade service. The question ns to the right of the local authorities tO commit the Hangs to tho Indiana State Farm until after the Federal sentence of eighteen months has expired has been raised, but Frederick Van Nuys, United States District Attorney, said the fact that the Haags were out on parole and that the time for which they were sentenced to the Federal prison at Atlanta by Judge Anderson would not expire until October would not prevent the State authorities from enforcing the sentence imposed upon them In the Marlon Criminal Court.
