CONFERENCE WITH PASHA Thrace Must Not Be Occupied Until Treaty Is Signed. LONDON, Oct. 9. (By the Associat . ed Press.) Tho British cubinet met to day to consider the detailed report of Marquis (Jurzoii, foreign secretary, on his conference in Paris with Premier poincare ut which the position of the allies ou tho Turkish situation was, again consolidated. f V ' The Mudania conference is being re sumed under the new instructions framed ut the Paris meeting, which were ap proved with slight changes by the cabi net Saturday night and forwarded to Brigadier General Harington. The dele gates were instructed to tusist upon fixa tion of the number of, Turkish gen darmerieto be allowed in Thrace, with drawal of all Turkish troops from the neutral cones und delay in the occupa tion of 'Thrace by , the Turkish army . until after the signing of a 'peace treaty. It was understood i tho ullied generals would meet Isiuet Pasha upon their re turn from Constantinople to Mudania, which, according to latent despatches, they reached at 10 p. in. last night. Tho result of the meeting, if one was held, had not ben received here early this morning. With the allies in agreement, however, everything seemed to rest with Ismet l'usha, "- '. Meanwhile the situation created by the Turkish invasion of the Isnitd neu tral Bone continues disquieting, only part of the invuders having returned across the line, according to the latest advices. Imports from two sources say an entire division entered, the neutral zone. l General Harington is reported to Lave warned Ismet I'asha that unless the Kemalists withdraw he may be obliged to make a military demonstration on the Turkish flanks. The Kenialist represen tative is said to have promised that the advance shall cease, and that the iiici- dent will not be repeated. As a measure of protection for Constantinople, Gen eral llaringlou ordered suspension of ferry 'service across the Bosphorus and the sea of Marmora. There are said to be 12,300 Christians now in. the Ismid zone outside tho British lines, while many thousands more are within the lines, having been removed to a camp at Moda, directly' across from Constanti nople. , Although the Greek government litis accepted ' the inevitable, acquiescing in the. evacuation of eastern Thrace, reports from Athens and Thrace indicate uncer tainty regarding the attitude of a sec tion of the army. It is said there may be a refusal by a considerable part of the Greek forces to obey the evacuation order, thus in volving dangerous complications. Tho 'Greek-commanders who were sent to Thrace before the government accepted the allied demands arc reported to be encouraging the soldiers to resist. The Turkish sultan, Mohammed VI, is still ou the throne, despite tlie report of Lis abdication recived by the Kussiau trade delegation here Saturday. Efforts arc now under way to bring nbotu a reconciliation between Moham med Vi. and the victorious nationalists, and an emissary is being sent from Con stantinople to inform the Angora gov: eminent that the sultan is prepared to recognize the legitimacy of the national assembly. Announce Discovery Records Contemporary With Christ University Of Pennsylvania Professor Announce Unearthing Of Valuable Records At Betha Shan In Palestine Having To Do With Herod, The Great. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 9. The nearest approach to unearthing con temporary records of Christ was an nounced today by Dr. George By ron Gordon, forester of the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania. The discoverey was made by Dr. Charles Stanley Fisher, director of excavation at Beth Shan, in Pales tine. The discovery was the burial place of Antiocbus, the first cousin of Herod, the Great. Antiochus in all probability, Dr. Gordon asserted, was one of the men charged by Herod with directing the slaughter of the children in Bethlehem as nar rated by Matthew in a vain effort to kill the Christ child, who had been described by the wise men as the "King of the Jews."' "The interesting part is that the father," Dr. Fisher wrote, "Phil lion, was killed in this district dur ing a battle with Pompey, and his son Antiochus was supposed to have ' died here sometime later. The dis covery of his coffin. in our ceme tery proved tQis point beyond a doubt. So far as I know this is the first sarcophague of the Hero dian family that has been found." Dr. Gordon also announced that Dr. Fisher had found, in deeper levels of occupation, the first known Sarcophagi ' of the Phillistines. - Readers of the Bible will recall that that they defeated King Saul on Mount Gilboa, which overshadows the ancient fortress city, and cut ting off his head, hauled his body to the city walls. Levels of six cities so far have been found at Beth Shan, Dr. Gor don declared, while more are known to be below. The site is said to have been occupied for a longer continuous period than any other place of human habitation. It was also the most fought over spot in the world, since it serves as the . gateway between Mesopotamia and Egypt and was necessary to the conquest of Palestine. Took 120 Drops Of Poison From Snakes NEW YORK, Oct. 9.0ne hun dred and twenty drops of poison were taken from 24 copperheads and nine water moccasins in the reptile house of the Bronx Zoological Gardens yes terday as the first step in a process to be completed in Brazil and which will consume nine months' for the making of a serum to counteract anake bites. Several score visitors to the Zoo witnessed the operation, which was recorded by half a dozen motion pic ture cameras. Working with his bare hands, Dr. Raymond L. Ditmars, curator of reptiles at the Zoo, seized the snakes one by one between the thumb and index finger of his right hand- and forced them to strike their fangs against a cloth spread over the mouth of a glass. Whenever a reptile struck with lightning-like rapidity, the poison could be seen running down into the funnel. As he worked the curator con vened with newspaper men. "This will probably be a great surprise and blow to most of you," he said, "but as far as science is con cerned, the old theory that whiskey a est as an antidote for snake poison has been exploded. Whiskey only stimulates the heart action and is ex tremely detrimental to successful treatment."

Reed Sinoot, United States senator for L'tah, and member of the quorum of the J twelve upostles of the Mormon church, tola the ninety-third general conference of members of that faith yesterday that God heard and answered the prayers of the peoHe for Mrs. Harding during her recent illness.

"I told the president,?' said the sena tor, "that from home tonight my earnest prayers, would go up for Mrs. Harding 's recovery. Millions were praying for her and shortly before midnight word came from the physiieaiis at the bedside that the tide had turned and the proposed operation would not be necessary. God had heard and answered the prayers of the people." "Sjienkers at the conference made it plain that members . of the Mormon church should exercise their elective franchise to place in office at the No vember election those men who stood for rigid enforcement of the laws upon the statute books of the nation and state, including the prohibition law in all its provisions and the state ant-cigaretet law. ' . .'- The conference concluded by the sis taniug of the incumbent authorities of the church. NEW YORK, Oct. 9.

WValso have reference to the action of Mr. Daugherty iu liberating from prison Francis H.

' Kaymond Schneider, who was with the Bahiner girl wheu the bodies were found, was held- us a muterial witness. Prosecutors Bcekmuu and fcStticeker, of Middlesex and Somer set counties say Schneider signed a SUO-word statement accusing llayes of the crciuie. " According to Schneider's statement. the double slaying was the result of mis taken identity. He hud gone out with Hayes ou the night of the murder, he said, trailing a man who accompanied the hahmer girl. Seeing a couple be neath a crabapple tree, ho said, Hayes opened lire, formal announcement of the arrests was made at 11:43 by Prose- I cut or Strieker. Hayes, wheu confronted -with Schnei der as he -latter told his story, ex i claimed: ' "He is a liar." -According to Schneider, who admits he is in love with the- Balmier girl, said he was standing ou a street corner with Hayes and Leo Kauffmnu when they saw j the girl pass with her stepfather, Nicho las Hahmer. ell was jealous of the step father, he said, and when he told the oters of his suspicions' they agreed to follow the pair. They searched first through Buecleuch park and then proceeded to the nearby Phillips farm. About 1 1 o 'clock, fcSchnei der said, they approached the crap apple tree under which the bodies of Mr. Hall and Mrs. Mills later were found, aud Hayes pointed to the two figures beneath 'the tree, exclaiming: "There they are. Now we'll fix them." , Hayes, Schneider declucred, whipied out a pistol and began to shoot. When the pair colhiDsed. Schneider 'said he went forward, struck a match i nd then turned to Hayes, exclaiming: "Great God, man, you've made a mis take." The three then fled, according to the statement. Schneider declared he did not know ho wthe throat of Mrs. Mills was cut or who had laid the bodies out under the tree, carefully adjusting their clothing after they had been slain. II declared that neither he nor his companions had touched the bodies aud they saw noting of the love letters writ ten by Mrs. Mills, which were found scat tered about the scene. . Detectives continued vigorously :: to work on the case, clearly indicating that they did not believe the double slaying had been wholly cleared up by Schnei der 's statement. When word first was taken to the home of Mrs. Frances Hall, w idow of the slain clergyman,- who had been repeatedly questioned about the case, Miss Sally l'eetrs, her most Ultimate friend and ad viser, said: "Isn't that fine.
