GIRL-MOTIVE DENIED BY WANDERER, AS HE'S FACED BY A MAIDEN (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, July 12. A theory that Carl Wanderer shot and killed his wife and a hired "robber" because of lifs Interest In a 16-year-old girl, was being Investigated today by the police. Confronted with the girl in his cell, Wanderer, for the first time since his arrept, lot his composure momentarily, but firmly denied the girl had had iiny influence on his desire to be free. In one of his statements to the police. Wanderer had said he shot his wife so he could return to the army nnrrt he free from the care of his wife rnd the baby they expected next month. The girl, Julia Schmitt. told the police she had known Wanderer some time and had gone to an amusement park with him several times, but did not know ho was married. She was not held, as police announced after questioning that they were conyJnced she had no knowledge of the murder plot which was carried out In the lobby of Wanderer's apartment. June 21. Says $1,500 Was Own Money. According to one, of the latest.. of Wanderer's statements to the police, the 51,500 which his 'wife drew; from the bank two days before she was shot, was his own money. . He had stated once before that he Intended to 6teal the money and return to the army,, but In the excitement following the shooting forgot about It. Wanderer today maintained his calm attitude In regard to the murders and talked of his dead wife without emotion. The Identification of the hired "robber" as John J. Maloney, of itiver romt K. i was further supported today by John Welland, clerk at a hotel where Maloney had stayed three days Just before he was slain, and had registered under that name. POLES DISSATISFIED (Continued From Page One.) informed, was that the plan was somewhat indefinite on the essential financial points. It Is understood that the German delegates have in reserve another plan, or amendment, of much greater importance than the plan submitted yesterday. The plan now before the conference is considered a substitute for this original plan, which tho Germans are withholding, being unwilling to disclose the original proposition because they were not given satisfaction on the coal question. It seems even possible that the trouble over the coal question may result In the prolongation of the confer- . ence. Franca Feels Sha Has Nothing The feeling In French circles is Bald to be that from the standpoint of , France, the conference up to the presJLflftt ttrvtA Vina I. n.lV..i i . vj, v.int uicu iiuuui iruiTiui results. Premier Lloyd George, who was slightly Indisposed yesterday, was present at today's meeting of the premiers. ..Germany can fulfill future engagements only if they are based on her financial capacity, said a - statement outlining the Berlin government's plan lor reparations, submitted to the allied premiers Sunday. The German budget must balance, the statement Insisted, or there would be a rapid Increase In the floating debt, and consequent inflation that would neutralize her capacity to pay. There must also, it was asserted, be no further diminution in the fundamental basis of German political economy, which are already much weakened. Wants a Fixed Annuity. Assuming that Germany's ability to pay is used as a basis, the statement asked that reparation obligations bo expressed in annuities, the minimum of which would be fixed, and the obligation to pay such annuities limited to 30 years. Stipulation was made that the minimum of the annuities be fixed according to Germany's financial capacities, and. therefore, comprise all obligations In money and kind, according to the treaty of Versailles. This would relate especially to tho undertaking to pay the expenses of the armies of occupation, which are to be covered partly by money and partly in kind, which must, in principle, bo accredited according to universal market prices. Request was also made that the allies fix the maximum sum due for reparations, after payment of which Germany would be free from any obligations. Want Plan Worked Out. As the economic development of the next 30 years cannot be foretold, the statement asserted a plan must be worked out by which allied govern-

ments would participate in the improvement of financial and economic conditions in Germany. Experts from allied nations and Germany should meet as soon as possible ,the statement said, to fix the

! amounts of the annuities to be paid and to pass on the securities to be demanded. Germany's sovereignty in financial matters must not be infringed upon in decisions regarding this feature of adjusting reparation . payments. These experts thould also fix the maximum sum to be paid to the allies by Germany. Material which Germany is to deliver to the allies under the peace treaty for reconstruction of devastated regions should be specified by the reparations commission, the statement declared, and the value should be credited to Germany.

THETtiCTiMOND PALLADIUM AND

EAGLES GOP VICTORY IN SNAPPIEST GAME OF SEASON, 3 TO 0 In the snappiest and best played ball game at Exhibtlon park this year, the Richmond Eagles defeated the Indianapolis Merits, 3 to 0, Sunday afternoon. Minner hurled a masterful game for the Eagles, whiffing nine men, and giving but one a free ticket to first base. He was backed in sensational style by the rest of the team, as not an error was charged against them. Everette Haas performed unusually well behind the bat, getting his man at first on a sacrifice hit and extinguishing two would-be stealers. The. performance of the Merits left no doubt in the minds of the 600 fans that witnessed the game, that tho Eagles were pitted against a strong team. Adams, fmrler, had worlds of stuff on the ball and faultless control. Inopportune bobbles by his teammates prevented a closer score. The game was the shortest played this year. Play was called at 2:45 p. m., and the last out was made at 4:30 p. m. The game had to be pnappy. however, as it rained .in the last inning. It could be safely said that Minner, Hass and Logan won the game for the 7r?"r'"3. The trio pt flv out of the team's nine hits, and hujidl.-o 19 out of 36 cMunces. A fast and accurate throw by Schepman In the first inning prevented the Merits from scoring. Bishop, first up, got in the way of one of Minners slants. The next two men were easy outs. Huhn slammed a hit to deep center and Bishop tried to score from second. Schftpman's throw made one bounce and plunked into Haas' glove In time for Bishop to be out. Tha "TONIC" MAN ASKS , FARMERS TO FEED IT It is understood that the representative of the Kansas City, Mo., hog and cattle powder concern is in Wayne county, or was reported here several days last week. County Agent Murphy said Monday that he understood that this agent was trying to induce men who have "tonic" supplies again to try feeding it, but with what success was not known. Porter Pike, of Centerville, reports that the agent endeavored to induce him to give it another trial some time ago, and said that he would be back and talk it over with him. So far the salesman has not returned and Mr. Pike is inclined to stand pat, unless there is some satisfactory guarantee from the firm that he will be insured. Killed Hogs in Washington Co. A letter from the county agent of Washington county has been received by Mr. Murphy, which states that the same identical hog tonic played hob with some Washington county hogs, in 1917. As many have been told that the Wayne county hogs were the very first to be sickened by this tonic, somebody has been mistaken. .C. H. Knoll Writes Firm. "Not having seen an adjuster from the hog tonic folks, nor heard a word. either from Kansas City or from our j local farm federation, nor received a; report from Purdue of an analysis of i the two samples of the powder mailed j them a month ago, I wrote to Kansas j City this morning." This was the report from C. H. Knoll, of Fountain City, on Monday, who stated that this was his "very first letter" on the subject. Mr. Knoll thinks it time somebody was getting into action and started out to stir things up on his own account. Thus far we have been unable to locate any farmer who has talked with the K.-msas City representative lately, and those with whom the matter has been taken up have expressed some anxiety as to what will be the outtome. Some of the preparation is lying at the freight depot in Richmond and has been for several days. In one case the firm has been written to the effect that the buyer would accept and pay for the oil and hog oilers and wae ready to reship the barreled stuff back, to which the firm have made no answer, so far.

New Yorks Sky Cops Will Be Busy During

M ti NEW YORK, July 12. The America's Cup races off Sandy Hook this month, promise to solve the question of "Why Are New York's 'Sky Cops?' " With giant sloops resuming their racing after a martial interruption, the "sky cops" find a task at hand that of keeping the course free from ali-crsft. During the trials between Shamrock IV and the 23-meter Shamrock, which have been held almost daily off the Jersey shore, airplanes have followed , In the wake of the yachts like gulls. It is almost certain that seaplanes r.nd landplanes within flying distance of New York and this is no mean ril?tance will buzz Hookwards when Shamrock IV meets Resolute. Even a dirigible now and then may be expected to stick its gaaeous prow over the course.Indeed, planes are digging onto the business of tugs and launches which have always transported a great part ' ' .7 J'U Hill J IM. . V J waters on the days of the races. Owners of private planes are booking passengers at rates which make even the tugmen look aghast. Truth to tell, yachtsmen are becoming just a little worried. It Is not that they fear so much a plane will crash down on the deck of racing craft as that they may cluster in such groups as to play pranks with the air fri :t' vl.Tllnnt. v.-In.l-ci-f skfners of an experience acquired through years. And it Is right -here that the "sky cops" may have their duty to perform. Direction of traffic at several thousand feet promises this year to be an interesting side-light of the big show. It is said that the perfume of flowers disappears as soon as the starch in the petals is exhausted.
