don Smith, a Princeton architect, was
found moored in the Delaware river

body was found at the end of 150
feet of rope, floating out in the river.
The shore end of the rope was tied
_ to ■ tree. In addition his arms were
pinned to his side by a rope. For
many hours it was taken for granted
Hist he bad been drowned, but when
the corpse was stripped a bullet wound
was found through the left breast and j
the authorities say this wound caused I
death.
„ “Prince” Herfy, a prize lighter;]
David Russell and George Blase saw |
the rope extending front the shore at j

line in and were startled to find the |
body on the end of it. The idemitb;

’ President Wilson Calls a Meeting of
the League of Nations Committee
For Today.
Paris, Feb. 3. The provisional
agreement approved by the supreme
council regarding the district < I ies
clien (Austrian Silesia) needs only mo
s'gnaLures of the Polish and Czeelio-
Slovak delegates to make it valid.
it imposes on the Czecho-Slovaks
the obligation nbt to go beyond a cer
ta'n zone and to return Polish p'-’soti
i ers. The Czechs must not <a ry out
any military construction ond must
supply coal to Poland according to
; conditions determined upon.
The supreme council will appoint a
commission of five members to super
vise the carrying out of the agree
ment.
The supreme council also will ap
point. it is reported, a commission of
two experts from each of tlie* great
1 powers to examine the Rumanian
j question. Premier Bratiano. of Ru
! mania, who demanded that a greater
portion of Banat be given to Rumania,
said that Banaf and Transylvania
should be occupied by allied troops
to prevent the spread of Bolshevism.
President-, Wilson -will officially as
semble this afternoon at the Hotel
De Crillon file members of the peace
conference commission on a society
of nations. In some quarters it is
reported that a report to the confer
ence on this subject is imminent.
President Wilson spent most of
i Sunday morning at work in his pri
j vate office. Instead of availing him
i self of the services of a stenographer
| he applied himself assiduously to the
I typewriter, which was taken as an
i indication that lie was preparing some
paper requiring the most thoughtful
consideration possible.
As it is iviown to be the plan of
the American delegation to ritsh for
ward plans for the creation of a so
ciety of nations it is assumed the
president, who is a member of the
special commission charged with that
project, was engaged in the prepara
tion of some statement supporting
some one proposition or general
seb' •!•.
The American delegates incline to
the belief that the most serious oh
t staele will lie found in insistence by
oversea bins advocates upon extreme
met)♦■ds to enforce peaceful settle
ment of dispute. It is understood the
American delegates will give their
support to the plans of General
Smuts and Lord Cecil with the ad
dition of a fef ideas advanced by
Leon Bourgeois, the Frencli Prota
gonist of a league. .

The maximum of hopes, often over

feeling is lliat the people inhabiting
1 that zone should be’free to decide for
j themselves whther 'hey w sh to join
! France, form an independent state or
! return to Germany.
The French hill for reparation is
not yet complete, but it has been an
nounced in I lie chamber of deputies
that it will lie about flo.oolf.otto,ooo
francs.
Great Britain's del Ration believes
that a society of nations is desir

he established by the present peace
conference. She advances no con
tinental purposes other than those of
a permanent and just peace, under
the principle of self-determination and
that there shall lie international free
dom of transit by railroads and water
ways. which is Great Britain’s gen
eral definition of freedom of com
! nierce in times of pence.
Great Britain will take mandatory
power over the German islands south
of the equator for Australia and over !
German southwest Africa for 1 lie tin- j
ion of South Africa. She will also ]
have the mandate over German East 1
Africa and some parts of Arabia and
slm has particular claims in this

Bel;-;utii asks that her reparation
for damages wrought by Germany
shall he the 'first lien upon German
assets to the extenj of at least 15,-
000,000 000 francs, or up to a much
larger sum if Germany does not re

taken from Belgium. Belgium believes
that she should he paid, first, localise
she was the first to lie invaded, be
cause her neutrality was violated and
because she has suffered more from
despoliation than any other country
In rise war.
Belgium, having reasserted her in
dependence and thus emerged from
her old state of neutrality, desires
from Holland the left bank of the
Schelde and the peninsular of Maas
tricht, which protrudes into Belgian
Limburg. Belgium also will assent
to a plebiscite in Luxemburg to de
cide whether that country wishes to
join Belgium or France or to retain
Its autonomy.
The foregoing may be considered
the extreme claims of Belgium.
Italy asks for the Trentlno as far
as the Brenner pass, including the
whole of the southern Tyrol: Trieste,
Istria. Flume. Zara. Sebeaico, the
larger part of the Dalmatian island,
Avlona and its hinterland: a protecto
rate over Albania, possession of the
Islands in the Aegean which were tak
en from Turkey during the Tripolian
war and the provinces of Adalia if
France and England should take ter
ritory in Asia Minor.
Territorial contentions in the
are complicated and present difficult
problems. Rumania desires to retain
possession of that portion of Russian
Bessarabia given her by the central
powers under the canceled treaty of
Bucharest tint! now in her possession.
Rumania also desires southern Do

after the second Balkan war. Pos

Pottsville, Pa., Fell. 3. —The first
break in the coal trade came after the
collieries of the anthracite field .had
worked almost continuously for more
than throe years when a number of
the independent companies closed
their collieries for periods ranging
from one to six days.
'l’he reasons assigned by the heads
of tlie companies were lack of orders
and an effort to make needed repairs
while tlie opportunity was afforded.
In the lower field of the St. Clair
Coal company, Buck Run, Dark
water and Oak Hill operations were
closed, while south of the mountain
five colleries of the MadeTu ll'll Goal

of the J. S. Wentz company and the
Beaver Brook operations of the C. M.
Dodson company were idle. The Le
