Palazzola, while driving his automobile along a Marine City street, had met Prusinski, and offered to drive him home but instead had driven to the cemetery, drawn a pistol and threatened to kill Prusinski, who he said had "squealed on him" for selling liquor, Prusinski told Sheriff Harrison W. Maines.

Prusinski knocked the pistol from his assailant's hand, jumped from the oar and ran for home, he said. Since that time he had not dared leave his house, he stated, and had not even gone to work. Palazzola had been released from jail last Friday on $500 cash bond after he had refused to plead to the charge of liquor law violation when arraigned in circuit court before Judge Eugene F. Law. His restaurant was raided early in the month and some liquor found by state police.

19 Federal agents were started today on the trail of the $1,500,000 strand of pearls that were formerly part of the Russian crown Jewels and were said to be owned by a Detroiter. The first place the agents of the treasury department will look will be the Dodge home in Grosse Polnte, where it was rumored Mrs. Horace E. Dodge, widow of the late automobile manufacturer, had the Jewels in a strong-box. The agents hope to interview Mrs.

Dodge and have her deny or affirm that ehe now owns the "bad luck" strand of 389 pearls. If Mrs. Dodge owns the Jewels and "admits" it, she will probably be foreed to pay the $900,000 customs duty said to be due the government on the strand.

Second, the new provisional gov answer she frequently gave to questions which varied from those asked at the first trial. Gavin McNab succeeded In bringing out the significant fact that at the time Miss Blake testified she heard Miss Rappe say "I am dying, I am dying, he hurt me" she didn't know whether or not Arbuckle was in the bedroom. The defense made much of the point. McNab also brought out the fact as at the previous trial that Miss Blake and Zey Prevost, her companion, had been In the custody of the district attorney's office at the home of Mrs. Duffy, the mother of one of Brady's attaches for two and one half months.

"Impounded" and "incarcerated" were the terms which McNab always used in this connection. Was she 111 Treated. "When did you escape?" asked McNab.

He gave the namee of two men who he said died from such acts. George Tarbrough, a high school teacher at Roanoke, Alabama, testified that while the battle of Chateau-Thierry was going on, he saw a white youth about 20 years old led out of the lines and shot down by a firing squad commanded by a major.

First, Catherine II, of Russia, then Benquist brothers of Paris couldn't sell the strand and turned them over to Cartler, of New York.

Benquist sued Cartler, alleging they did not get the full amount due them from the sale. Horace E. Dodge, was thought to have purchased the strand in May, 1920. He died soon afterwards. If his widow has the pearls she may be forced to pay Unci Sam nearly a million dollars or lose them.

Jan. 19 Reference to the capital ship ratio has been omitted in the final draft of the naval treaty, the United Press learned today.

Omission of the actual ratio was due to Japanese sensitiveness, the Japanese holding this would tend to give an air of inferiority to their nation'. The ratio, however, is indirectly provided for by specific figures on total tonnage. The treaty, according to its preamble, is based upon a desire for "maintenance of general peace" and for reduction of armament competition. The treaty is divided into three chapters. The first contains twenty articles.

The second is divided into four parts capital ships to be retained, rules for scrapping, re-pla'cement and definitions. Chapter three with miscellaneous provisions, contains the articles relative to common action in case of desired modification of the treaty and in case of a power becoming Involved in war. uai naa an the ear marks tit pVtI of th basest fires Port Huron has had for some Civil Calendar that question," replied Miss Blake.

National Wet Campaign is Set Poincare To Take France First Stand Paris, Jan. 19. Raymond Poincare, new Premier of France, presenting his cabinet and foreign policy for approval of the Chamber of Deputies today was certain to receive an overwhelming vote of confidence, even his enemies admitted this morning. A stormy session with Interpellations from the extreme left which will vote solidly against Poincare, was anticipated, however. Only seven interpellations (questions asked by the opposition with a view to overthrowing the ministry) were announced, whereas Brland often faced over twenty when he was In power.

The foreign policy of France, as outlined by the new premier to parliament, was based upon the French Nationalist conception ot France's position among the nations of the world, namely, the equaj of any. France, under Poincare, will enter into no agreements with any nation in which she receives favors or protection as a weaker power.

Chi Unted Press) Charges made by the hospital 13 A national when the girl was taken home In the car. It would be reasonable to expect that on some occasions the defendant had taken the girl home without taking his wife with him, Mr. Wolcott declared.

Since Brink-man was 39 years old and the girl only 15 nothing would have been thougth of Brinkrnan driving her home alone, he said. Nothing would be more natural, he said, than that Mrs. Brinkrnan would on some ocacslons be busy when it came time to take the girl home and would not accompany her husband on the drive. Denial ot all allegations of misconduct toward the girl whom he is accused of assaulting was made Wednesday afternoon when Brink-man took the witness stand In his own defense. He declared he had never taken the girl alone in his automobile from the postoffice in Avoca to her home a mile and a quarter away as she had testified.

He said that whenever he drove her home while she was working at the postoffice Mrs. Brinkrnan went with him. He denied also having kissed the girl as she had claimed, Mrs. Brlnkman supported her husband's testimony that he had never taken the girl home alone. On cross examination she denied having made a trip to Detroit in August 1920 while the girl was working for her husband.

S. B. Warren, Mrs. Maude Turner, Henry Lawson and Joseph E. Vincent, residents of Avoca and vicinity, all testified that Brinkman's reputation for truthfulness and foi morality were good in the community where he has lived 12 years.

19. A hobo on Arctic trails who had with him a note book and other rellces of Dr. Cook's expedition of 14 years ago. is described in a letter received here from Kenneth M. Clark, a Harvard graduate, who is now cruising Timberlands in the northern Quebec wilderness.

Cook. The pages continued notes on weather, latitudinal and longitudinal data, condition of Ice floes and other merfiSra.nda. Eighty-nine was the farthest north position decipherable, Clark wrote.
