Argentina's hopes were in vain, the note asserted, and conse- quently she had ceased to partici. | pate in the assembly. - The decision of the delegates, it is pointed out, could hardly constitute the cancellation of Argentina's ad- hesion to the League of Nations, as the covenant provides that such can- cellation can be made only after two years’ notice has been given. The Afgentine delegate explained that he had expected to leave for home next Monday, but now had de- cided to remain to see what action the assembly might take. at Mon- day’s session. He declar he was supported by many of the South American states. Argentina’s withdrawal from the assembly constituted the first breach. The Argentinian delegate worked most of last night framing his note, the decision to send which was taken after the receipts of re- ports from Argentina of deep re- sentment there over the rejection by the assembly of Senor Pueyrre- don’s suggested discussion of cov- enant amendments. Hymans Confers With Him. President Hymans of the assembly called on Senor Pueyrredon this aft- ernoon and the two were in confer- ence for some time, but the Argen- tinlan’s purpose was not altered by the talk. The position he took came as @ great surprise to the entire as-. eembly. Had Denied He Would Withdraw. The fact that Senor Pueyrredon did not attend today's meeting caused suppressed cxcitement in the assembly, especially among South Americans. His refusal to deny re- ports that Argentina would withdraw from the league, after he had char- acterized them last night as false, was believed to be due to a commu- | ni he had received from the Argentine Government this morning.

As betwen liquor law enforcement and the suppression of gambling in baseball, the Judge chose baseball for first discussion. “You can feel very sure that the professional gam- bler will be aniputated from base- ball,” he said. “I'm not going to have a brass band to lead the way, but I feel very sure that you will be very sure sometime not far distant that this amputation has occurred.” He added that he could say nothing further pending the signing next Sat- urday in New York of the formal agreement naming him as the one- man court of last resort in baseball controversy. He said that he would touch tonight upon the question raised in isolated places concerning hia right to be a United States Judge and judge in baseball simultaneously. During the interview he called up the head#@ of the National and Amer- lcan League teams in St. Louis and invited them to meet him during the day. “Bring your playing managers along if you can,” he said to each.

Commissioner Says Limit of | Concessions This Country Will | Make Has About Been Reached. Ry the Associated Press. WASHINGTON, 4.—The | American Government has about. reached the limit of the concessions | it is willing to make to the allied | and associated Powers with regard | to the disposition of the former Ger- man cables, it was made known to-| day by one of the American com- missioners to the International Com. munications conference now in ses-. sion here. The commissioner said | the negotiations had been dragging for some time without any immedi- ate tndication that an agreement would be reached. Officials would not indicate what might follow the breaking of the conference, which has appeared im- minent, as a result of the unwilling- ness of some of the Powers repre- rented to reach what the American representatives consider an equit- abfile distribution of the former Ger- c. The United States has insisted that ite cable communication with Germany, which was interrupted as a result of the diversion of the Ger- man oables by the allies should be restored. Great Britain is under- stood to have expressed a willing- ness to restore the cable which for- merly ran from Emden to New York, but which has been diverted to connect Penzance with Halifax only on condition that it remain in British hands.

Judge Landis was here today from Chicago “as a guest of the St. Louis Bar As- sociation, members of which he is to address tonight. No subjects of vital consequence are expected to come up at today’s discussion. Phil Ball, despite a brok- en ankle,. welcomed the chance to talk over baseball affairs with the saew arbiter. Judge Landis told reporters today that the gambling feature was the ‘worst menace confronting baseball today, and that the efforts of major league authorities to stamp it out ‘would be relentless. Judge Landis recently was chosen a one-man commission as a com- promise between the Lasker Plan forces and the Ban Johnson sup- ‘porters, who favored the: old na- tional commission government. Judge Landis may retain his post as United States Judge along with his position as referee between the Na- tional and American leagues in matters of conflict. His salary as baseball referee will be $42,500 annually.. Oan He Hold Two Jobs? Judge Landis, in arranging ‘meeting with the local baseball men, requested that both their “playing managers” them. But as the Browns have not yet named a successor to Burke and “as Branch Rickey was out of the. ity, the two presidents were unable “to comply with this request.

Herzog. according to his own testi- mony before the local grand jury, was offered money to throw games in the National League while a mem- ber of the New York Giants. He Hendrix was scheduled to pitch a game for the Chicago club against the Philadelphia Nationals, but Alex- ander was sent in at the last moment after Mr. Veeck had reecived several telegrams notifying him that the game had been “fixed” for Philadel- phia to win and that thousands of dollars were heing bet in several cities. ——— SUNDAY BASEBALL FOR PROFIT ATTACKED BY NEW YORK CIVIC BODY NEW YORK, Dec. 4.—A call “all New -York to work for the repeai of those laws, signed by Gov.

voens Lours POST-DISPATCH. + FARMERS ARE TOLD TO FEEL NO ALARM OVER PRICE DROP Gov. W. P. G. Harding ‘Federal Reserve System Says There Is No Intention to Close Them Out. PREDICTS MARKETS WILL BE STABILIZED St. Louis Reserve Institution Operating on a Sound Basis, He Tells Congres- sional Committee. By the Washington Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.—Gov. W. P. G. Harding of the Federal Re- serve System made special mention yesterday of the sound basis on which the St. Louis reserve bank is operating. Testifying at a joint hear- ing of the Agricultura] Committees of the House and Senate on the un- favorable economic situation con- fronting the farmer, Gov. Harding said that the St. Louis bank’s re- serves had been down to about 20 cent, but that it had bullt them point that the banks of the Middle West had been giving due attention to the needs of the farmers for cred- it. He said that more credit had been extended through the reserve system to the Kansas City, Minne- apolis and Dallas banks than to the banks of any other section. If the Kansas City bank had been forced to carry or rediscount all its own paper, he said, its reserves would be down t6 18 per cent. Instead, it had been able to keep its reserves up by rediscounting its paper through the Cleveland, Boston and Philadel- phia banks. Eastern money or cred- it had gone in about the same pro- portion to the Minneapolis and Dal- las banks. Accommodation for Farmers. The witness cited these facts as showing the extent of the accommo- dation being granted the farming in- terests of the country. - Im answer to a question by Rep- resentative Tincher of Kansas, Hard- ing denied the correctness of a re- port that certain Federal Réserve banks were sending out letters to their clients stating they had been ordered to reduce the volume of their loans 25 per cent by Jan. 1. A large part of the hearing was devoted to a discussion of the pol- |} icy of the Kansas City Federal Re-/ § serve Bank. Western members of the House) and Senate were putting forward complaints that it was impossible for the farmers to get credit and were arguing that the Kansas City bank should “loosen up” on its dis- count policy, when Harding sur- prised them by asserting thata ma- | jority of the member banks in th district did not owe the Federal Ree serve Bank a cent. To a series of questions by Sena- tor Norris, of Nebraska, and Senator. Capper of Kansas regarding the op- erations of the Kansas City Bank, Harding replied: “There has been more complaint | over the credit situation from that, district than from any other section. It eeems to be the center of this agi- tation. I want to say here and now that the Federal Reserve Bank is not denying an extension of credit to the farmers. There are some member banks that are not asking for more discounts because they are loaded up with all the paper that conservative banking dictates they shoulda carry. They don’t want their names on any more paper at the Yederal Reserve. “These are the banks that are doing their part, and more to meet the situation. «On the other hand, of the 1100 member banks in that section, a majority don't owe the Federal Reserve bank a cent. They have mot asked to have gny paper digcounted. Possibly some of them are-not doing their part.” * Explains the Discount Rate. Senator Norris, asked whether the 6 per cent basic discount rate main- tained by the Kansas City bank, did not-discourage member banks from asking re-discount of farm paper. Harding said that the rate was dic- tated by sound banking principles baged on existing conditions; He 4id not believe that the rate ma- terfally affected the amount of re- discounting. Harding urged that farmers “keep their heads” and not get unneces- frightened. In the slumping process, he said that prices had dropped too low in some cases, but would be stabiliged on an equality da goods and labor factors, He said the banks had no disposition to dlose out farmers who were and that the Federal Board 14 mot intend that such a thing 4 happen if it could be avoid- P a a that farmers instead Ps He a(fivised _ of @umping all their crops on the at once should distribute marketing over the 12 months , selling enough to meet and then work- touch with the banks of the remainder in an‘ fashion.” developed into a dis- quite heated between Gov. of the Federel Reserve and members of Congress.

PRICE CANDIDATE : ~ The Price of Diamonds Is Controlled HE Diamond Syndicate releases each year a little smaller quantity than the world will buy, thus insuring stability of prices for Diamonds. For the past fifteen years these prices, however, have steadily increased, as have also the difficulties in mining. As far as can be determined by expert investiga- tors there is little likelihood of Diamonds ever depreciating in value. The public may therefore buy Diamonds in the belief that, in every proba- bility, they will always be worth the price paid, if not more. ‘ A Diamond is undoubtedly the most permanent gift in beauty and value that can be chosen. | ‘ | oo 4 L..

The series de- scribes some of the many events in the pro- fessional career of a private “inquiry agent.” “Coincidence” is being published in three parts, today’s installment being the second. The third will be published on this page next Wednesday. | HIS is the fourth of a series of remark- ARRINGTON lit a fresh cigarette and be- gan the second part of his story. “Wickley left my office only a little be- fore my usual lunch hour, and I sat on over my fire for some time, thinking—but not seeing a ray of light. That made me rather late in getting back after lunch, and when I came in my clerk handed me a card and told me a gentleman was waiting in my room. On the card I read the name, ‘Mr. A. D. Spencer.’ “When I glanced up from it and caught my clerk's eye, I could see that he evidently thought I had done myself a little too well at lunch. 1 suppose I had been standing for the whole of five minutes gazing at that card. The appearance of Mr. Spencer immediately on top of Mr. Wickley seemed a thing hardly in the course of nature. I began to wonder whether there was some sort of a conspiracy between the two men. I tried to see in advance what line this man Spencer was going to take. walked into my room. “I found a heavy-looking man of rather above middie height, clean-shaven, with a blue chin, baggy eyes, and very black hair. He had the skin of a man who, as Wickley said, did himself a little too well, and I could also quite believe | of her! that he could be a sulky, ill-tempered devil if things went ‘wrong. “*"We didn’t exactly meet last night, Mr. Car- rington,’ he began, and there was quite a dash of geniality about the man when he made the efiort, ‘but I was at the Devorset dinner and heard you speak. I also came across an old ac- quaintance there. Meeting him set me worrying about an old problem, and seeing you put it into my head to come and consult you in the matter.’ “And then I realized that there was no con- spiracy at all, nor even any very extraordinary coincidence, but, as J told you at the start, just a series of quite natural] events that had produced this startling result. My second thought was, “What a bit of luck! The solution to the insoluble problem walks into my office!’ However, you'll see how far out I was there. “*Of course, you'll understand that this is strict- ly confidential,’ said he. “*Naturally,’ I said, and I noted that though he was evidently keen on secrecy, he didn't show the same extreme anxiety as Wickley. “*Well,’ he said, ‘I'll begin my story 11 years back. Or perhaps I should first mention that some years before that I had purchased an estate in Devorset. I'm a stockbroker, by the way; Spencer, Spencer & Luderman is my firm, and I’m the senior partner. Eleven years ago an old fellow in the neighborhood called Wickley died and his nephew came into the property and settled down next door to me. By next door I mean rather under a couple of miles away; but we had no other neighbors—of that class, I mean—within six or seven miles, and we didn’t know them, either. Consequently, Wickley and I saw a lot of one another and became very friendly.’ “*What sort of a fellow was he?’ I inquired, with my most truth-seeking expression. “*l wish you had noticed him at the dinner last night,’ said he, ‘and you'd have understood better what kind of a proposition he was. A reddish- haired, heavy-chinned sort of fellow, with queer eyes, and the word ‘past’ stamped all over him.’ “*What do you mean, exactly?’ “*Well, I mean that he had a past, and I soon began to guess as much from his very appearance and manner, though at first I only felt vaguely that there was something unusual about him. I may mention that he isn't the kind of person one would naturally suspect of a shady record; for the And then I recovered my wits and. “This speech naturally didn't prejudice me much) in favor of Mr. Spencer. Little though he re-| alized it, he was making me look at things more and more from Wickley’s point of view—had hat) though Mr. W. may have been, and respectable as Mr. 8. no doubt was. “I am coming to a very painful part of my) story now, Mr. Carrington,’ he continued. ‘In fact, it’s so infernally unpleasant that it has kept me’ from telling the facts to a living soul up to this’ moment. I had a wife—in fact, she’s legally my wife still—and I was very fond of her. I can assure you on that point—I was desperately fond “She got in a funk afterwards, when her temper cooled, and tried to unsay it, and back out.” Wickleys are a very good old Devorset family, | and if family pride would: keep people straight, well, it ought to have kept him. He didn’t show that feature, either, to begin with, but you'll see in a minute the sort of too-good-for-the-damned- stockbroker gentleman he was. My place was about twice the size’of his, I may add, and he was | deuced glad to have as many days’ shooting with ’ | me as he could get. Some precious rotten days he gave me in exchange; but, of course, shooting with a two-penny half-penny squire was always an honor!’ She was an uncommonly beautiful girl. She was on the stage at one time, I may say, and might have gone very far on her looks alone, but I married her and took her away from it. She was a lady by birth, but she hadn’t a penny, and it was a& love marriage pure and simple—love marriage on my part, at least, for I don’t believe she ever really loved me. We had no children, either, and that was a fatal mistake.’ “He paused and stared moodily at my fire. I was much more in sympathy with Mr. Spencer now. “*Well, to get over an unpleasant business as quickly as possible, we began to drift apart pret- ty fast. I still loved her to distraction—in a way; but we both had tempers, and she led me the devil of a dance, and it was cat and dog half the time. When I bought this place Devorset she kicked at living there permanently—too slow for her. She’d stay for some months, and we'd have hause parties and so on, and then back to town again. And then all of a sudden she quite changed round. Perfectly agreeable to living all the year in the country she became now, so we gave up our flat in town and settled in Devorset, even though it meant her being quite a good bit by herself, for I generally had to spend a part of my week in town for business reasons. “Then, like a thunderclap, came the suspicion that there was something behind this change of tune. One needn't go into all the details, but sev- eral little things made me morally certain that Elsie was being unfaithful to me. We were hav- ing worse rows than usual at that time, and in one shindy I charged her with it. In order to hit me back hard, she actually admitted it!’ “In order to hit you hard?’ I interrupted. ‘Are you sure she meant it?’ “ ‘Perfectly, because she got in a funk after- wards, when her temper cooled, and tried to unsay it, and back out. Besides, the little things on which I had based my suspicions had convinced mo already. And now I had her word for it!’ “Spencer was quite carried away by his own story by this time, and I could judge exactly the kind of dangerous, -revengeful man he was. “"The only question was, who was the man? And there couldn't be any question about that, either. Wickley was the only possibility!’ “*Ah!’ I exclaimed, and he looked at me skarp- ly. ‘Go on,’ I said. ‘I begin to see the position now. though he said Wickley was often hanging round my place he never found anything definite against | “I saw it a lot clearer than he had any notion | of.

Six miles away there was a fat fellow of 50, with a wife and large family—a dull bore of a fellow. Seven miles away were two maiden ladies. Nine miles away was an invalid of 70. Those were the only alternatives, and we scarcely wrote that letter to Wickley from my London of- fice, and then the sudden thought struck me that I would come straight home myself.

Besides, I had grown more and more convinced that Wickley had something shady in the background!

However, I didn’t wait in my house—I simply couldn’t do it. I tramped off to a little local pub, slept the night there, and went back to town in the morning. And now comes a bit of the story that you probably won't believe, Mr. Carrington?’ “‘T’'ll believe everything you tell me,’ I said. "“‘T had a room at the Hotel Metropole at that time.
