the case, was expected today, and he

he declares. "Our probably will be brought to Chicago

for questioning. Joseph Breitenstein, district attorney of Cleveland, today said after a conference here that the Cleveland angle of the affair had been entirely cleared up. A score or more of Cleveland concerns are said to have been involved in the schemes of those under arrest. The prime object of the alleged confidence group was to dispose of millions of dollars worth of notes

through many small banks in the west and middle west, according to a state

ment of Owen T. Evans made public today by Mr. Clinnin. Evans, a former national bank examiner, was arrested with Worthington in connection with mail thefts and has turned government witness. Asserts Legality According to Evans all the negotiations that he handled were strictly legal and notes he disposed of had security back of them. He placed loans in many small banks according to his statement. Worthington he said hired him to examine banks that he intended to purchase for an eastern syndicate that he represented. Gerber talked freely after being

brought here last night. A eulogy on the honesty and the high moral character of French was among his first utterances. "I never knew a more honest, upright and decent citizen," he said, speaking of the alleged head of the "swindle trust". "He was always thinking of others and willing to help them in any way he could." Gerber said French's chief object was to dispose of notes through trust companies he organized but admitted that some of these trust companies had no capital behind them. A road from Cleveland to Kansas City was one of the projects sponsored by French, Gerber declared.

to a sense of Chinese consciousness. "The 2.600 Chin

ese students who have received their training in America are the backbone of New China. Each ono is the apostle of good will between your country and mine." Japs Don't Play Square "I have no personal enmity toward that nation," he says, "but Japanese do not play square. If they show their

false colors at the coming disarma-j ment conference in Washington, and refuse to treat concerning Shantung, Japan will get what she deserves from the high God." Dr. Hsieh has been a diplomat in every continent on the globe. He now heads the Chinese trade and labor bureau, with headquarters in Boston. "The coming world conference in Washington is very significant," he recently declared. "The United States is the center of the world, in politics, in banking, in trade. She is the creditor nation of all countries, and they must listen to her counsel. Will Demand Rights "Furthermore. China is going to get

her rights at the conference in regard to Japanese aggression. Japan never strikes when an enemy is strong. She -vaits until the foe's blood has been drawn and then stabs from behind. "If China was as well off in other ways as she is morally and financially, she could stave off attacks. But in twenty years she will be able to do so. America developed to her present power in the nineteenth century the twentieth is the Chinese dawn." Ho is profoundly grateful for the response to the appeal for Chinese famine relief. He attributes its immediate succesB to American ingenuity and enterprise in the distribution of food. "America and China, the sister republics, are 'hand across the sea" today." he said. "The friendship and dependence of one on the other is growing from day to day. and is already immense. It is a new China you are dealing with today a thriving, busy China, with automobiles In the streets, airplanes in the air. people rushing to and fro. no sleepiness or old-time languor. Our resources are as yet untapped."

bera of the American Naval detachment assigned to the ZR-2 were to be called upon to identify the bodies of their comrades. LONDON. Aug. 26. George Harvey, the American ambassador, had a premonition that disaster would befall the ZR-2 and was uneasy about the whole enterprise, according to the Daily Mail. The newspaper says that Mr. Harvey, talking to friends including Major Solbert, military attache, and Captain Hyatt, assistant military attache of ; the -American embassy, at his home in Weybridge, Wednesday, said:

"I distrust the whole undertaking of

the R-38 (the old name of the dirig-

able) crossing the Atlantic, especially at this time, although I am not criticising the navy department for buying the ship. Although my pre

monition is not founded on a scientific base, I think the enterprise is hazardous and useless and that it will not be of much gain." Mr. Harvey added, according to the

Daily Mail, that when he saw the ship he inquired an involuntary distrust of "the whole business." and had worried about it since. Later, on Wednesday, the newspaper asserts Mr. Harvey said: "I cannot rid myself of the fear that something has happened to the airship" and that soon after this he received a telephone message inform

ing him of its fall.

tween Great Britain and Ireland. If your government be determined to impose its will upon us by force, and antecedent to negotiations to insist upon conditions that involve a surrender of our whole national position and make negotiations a mockery, the responsibility for the continuance of the conflict rests upon you. ; "Upon the basis of the broad guiding principle of government by the consent of the government, peace can be secured a peace that will be Just

and honorable to all and fruitful of

concord and inducing to amity. "To negotiate such a peace the dail

eireann is ready to appoint its representatives, and if'your government

accepts the principle proposed, to invest them with plenary powers to meet and arrange with you for its application in detail. "I am, sir. faithfully yours, (Signed) "EAMON De VALERA."

PARIS. Aug. 26 Premier Briand on behalf of the French government has cabled condolences to President Harding and the United States government over the ZR-2 disaster.

European headquarters of the American Red Cross in Paris has wired thi3 message to the London

chapter of the organization:

"Please undertake to get all the

emergency needs of the American vie

tims of the ZR-2 and their relatives

and dependents. Cooperate fully with

the American authorities and supple

mont their measures with such prompt and sympathetic attentions as are in keeping with the close relations which

have always existed between the American navy and the American Red

Cross.

DUBLIN. Aug. 26. De Valera was today re-elected leader of the Irish Republicans with the title of "president of the Irish Republic:" Arthur Grif

fith, founder of the Sinn Fein, was elected vice-president, and the other

members of the Dail cabinet were

again chosen to membership in that body. -

The Dail took this action at a public session, at which De Valera read his reply to Lloyd George, declaring this summed up the Dail's position on an Irish settlement, which, he said,

is and must remain unchanged. At the same session the Dail sanctioned loans of 500,000 pounds sterling in Ireland and $20,000,000 in America.

Awaits Lifting Airship The coroner stated this morning he did not believe many more bodies would be found until the wreck of the airship was raised and searched. Every effort is being made to recover bodies of the victims, and searching parties are maintaining a constant lookout on both sides of the Humber for miles above and below Hull. John H. Grouth.

fatal to the world's peace. If a small nation's right to independence is forfeit when a more powerful .neighbor covets its territory for military or

other advantages it is supposed to

confer there is an end to liberty. No longer can any small nation claim the right to a separate existence. Holland

and Denmark can be made subservient I to Germany, Belgium to Germany or to France, Portugal to Spain. "If nations that have been forcibly annexed to an empire lose thereby their title to independence there can

be for them no rebirth to freedom.

Never Were Partners. "In Ireland's case, to speak of her receding from a partnership they have not accepted or from an allegience which she has not undertaken to render is fundamentally false, just as the claim to subordinate her independence to British strategy is fundamentally

unjust. To neither can we, as repre

sentatives of the nation, lend countenance." "If our refusal to betray our nation's honor and the trust that has been reposed in us to be made an issue of war by Great Britain we deplore. We are as conscious of our responsibility to the living as we are

mindful of principle or of our obligation to the heroic dead. "We have not sought war nor do we seek war, but if war be made upon us we must defend ourselves, and shall do so, confident that whether our defense be successful or unsuccessful, no body of representative Irishmen or Irishwomen will ever propose to the nation the surrender of its birthright.

King, Brown's companion, who was with him during the night and at the time of the shooting, was located late Thursday afternoon. He wa3 in an extremely nervous condition and told several conflicting stories. Denies Being Intoxicated He summed up his statements by saying that he was not sure just what happened, that he was too frightened by the firing of the shot to remember distinctly. He said that Brown had had a drink of jamaica ginger and pop mixed during the night. King maintained that neither he nor Brown was drunk. Goeble stated that he could not swear that Brown was

drunk, nor could he state positively

that he was not. Both King and Goeble stated that they did not hear Brown say with curses that he intended to kill Leach. Goeble stated that it would have been impossible for Leach to have got into

the shanty and secured a gun from the time Brown started after him until the shot was fired. He said that Leach must have had the gun in his

pocket Files Affidavit. Deputy Prosecutor Griffis got in touch with Prosecutor Beckett Thursday. A first degree murder affidavit was filed later in Wayne circuit court. Prosecutor Beckett stated that he would be back in Richmond Monday. A calling of the grand jury to investigate the case probably will be made with the return of Judge Bond the first of September.

Will the killing of Brown lead to a rand jury investigation of gambling and vice conditions in Richmond? Discuss Possibility. The question is one of the most discussed in connection with the killing of Brown by Leach, and Leach's

confession that the old grudge be

tween the men, which led to the kill

ing, was the outgrowth of a quarrel over a poker game in a dive conducted by Brown upstairs over his place of business. Police state that raids have been made on this place and other well known places of questionable character in Richmond during the past year. But the precautions taken by the proprietors have made it impossible to obtain sufficient evidence for a conviction in court, they state. Might Check Violations.

A grand jury investigation might make possible the employment of more stringent measures to stop the flagrant violations of the law, according to various parties. The body-of Brown was taken to Burning Springs, Ky., Friday morning. Frank McDaniels, of Hamilton, O., a cousin of the dead man, arrived in Richmond, Thursday, and took charge

of the body. He was accompanied to

was made minister without portfolio in the cabinet of Prince Maximilian. Incurred Enmity of Military. As a member of the German armist

ice delegation he conducted negotiations with Marshal Foch and later

headed the Majority Socialists in a movement to form a new ministry and sign the peace treaty.

His attitude throughout the armist

ice negotiations aroused against him

the indignation of German military authorities and in June, 1919, it was reported that his residence had been fired upon by a Berlin mob. A plot said to have been formed by members of the officers' corps at Potsdam to

assassinate him was revealed in September following. Born in Buttenhaus, Sept. 20, 1875, Erzberger was the sou of a poor tailor. He became a schoolmaster, obtained a university education, studied international law and political econ

omy, wrote several books on political

and economic subjects and became a

brilliant speaker and politician.

He was elected to the reichstag. in 1903 as member of the Center (Catholic) party, as representative of small

farmers and became one of the lead

ers of a small liberal wing of that party. He is said to have been a PanGerman during the early part of the war and to have engaged actively in spreading German propaganda. Advocate of League of Nations. He was accused of. having recommended the use by German troops of the flame thrower. Later he declared Germany's U-boat war had failed and

advocated its abandonment. Some time prior to the armistice he published a book in which he outlined a plan for a league of nations. Ezrberger was elected member of

the national assembly from Wuerttem-

berg in January, 1919 and in June became vice-premier and minister of finance. In the latter office he formulated the vast income tax and capital levy plan which he declared was necessary to enable Germany to pay her indemnities to the entente and to rehabilitate herself financially. It was claimed that his levy on German capital would greatly reduce the huge for

ERZBERGER (Continued from Page One.) Helfferich subsequently blamed Erzberger's peace proposal for the moral collapse of the German people. The former Vice-Chancellor accused

Erzberger of high treason, denounced him as "a menace to the purity of our public life" and invited him to bring fcuit for libel. Herr Erzberger was for many years leader of the German Center party and one of the leading figures in German public life after Germany's defeat in the war. His peace move of 1917 had made him the storm center of attack by reactionaries; but when Germany's military power collapsed he
