It was pull dick, pull devil until Han son rolled his antagonist over and nabbed his toe in a Gotch. That was all save the Italian's howl for hajp. Following this Mojro refused to come back, claiming that the toe Frits twisted had been preyjjtfsly injured. An examination, by Dr. Bowdbln con firmed this claim and the fight was de clared over, and" a verdict of draw rendered by Referee Bob Kermon.

"Such "arguments that haye been made here, such abuse," .said ,Mr. Ben nett, "have' been "entirely: otifof p-lace. Conspiracy, does, noit hve to be actu ally talked. It may be the 'concurrence of minds, proved by -the-concurrence of action. The defendants may have- never: heard of each other, but still" they" could be co-conspirators. "If there were a lot of individual stealing, I concede that under this in dictment you cannot convict them," the district attorney continued. "This is sue before you is: 'Was there a con spiracy."

EXPECT ALLIES TO AGREE TO PRINCIPLES OF NOTE WASHINGTON, April 7. Administra tion officials, it may be stated with au thority, confidently expect the allied governments to accept -' the principle restated by Secretary Hughes in . his notes of last Monday to-those govern ments that the United States has sur rendered none of its rights in the over seas possessions of Germany and that It cannot be" bound by decisions affect ing . those: possessions made by the league of nations without its assent. ThNsre "is reason to believe that the correspondence on -this subject, which was initiated las.t November, will not be closed wlth threcejlpt of the replies from the .Japanese, British, French and Italian forejgn offices. s. If the expecta tions of American officials -are realized, the details regarding American rights will have to be worked out In negotia tion. In the event, however, that the four powers do not find their way to an agreement with the. Arderican view-sTction-on which officials refused today "point. there, would arisr6 a situation to forecast,. .. .. The Shantung,se.ttlement in, the peace treaty ' -which shas been , sharply criti cized in this country is not .at issue in the', present' controversy. It-is learned that the phrase ''overseas possessions" in the'; AmericAh commissions was used advisedly andit, ia pointed out that Shantung was not a German possession. Kiao-Chow, a part of that Chinese province,; was held by Gerrnany through a concession from, the Chinese govern ment. The view f ; the Harding ad ministration -with respect to this Shan tung settlement 'has not been stated, but this settlement was vigorously op posed . by the administration leaders in the senate while the treaty of Ver sailles -was. under consideration by that body and was made the subject of one of the Republican reservations to the treaty which were adopted.
