The plan of the "Jolly ship company" which sent out literature last January calling for funds to construct a ship to lie off New York in summer and Florida In the winter, calls for a program similar to the 'one' under which the mysterious ship has been operated.

Captain Roach sent a radiogram to Captain W. V.

inruL uiii to ras snqcrass. Berlin, August 17. A big Internal battle, which endangers the new London pact and its interpretation of the Dawes report is brewing in Germany. The German people, who must pay the price, may get a chance to pass upon the terms themselves. The Nationalists continue to denounce the results of the London conference ia the sharpest terms, which may cut off the possibility of their retreat from opposition when the Reichstag votes on the measures to make the Dawes plan effective.

The Inevitable result of their voting "no" will be the dissolution of the Reichstag and a new election, with the London conference and the Dawee plan as the sole Issues. OCIAU4TS WELCOME VOTE. The Government's determination to dissolve the Reichstag if necessary was reaffirmed at London. Only, Kocisusts, However, welcome a ne ie election.

A new election la believed to bold grave possibilities. None of the parties are able to work up enthusiasm In defease of the London pact which. In spite of Premier Rsmsay MacDonald declaration to the contrary. Is felt here as having been forced upon Germany by the combined strength of the allies and America. It Is not Impossible that the enthusiasm of the opposition may away the electoral In the end, thua smashing the Dawes plsn snd the London conference st one stroke.

OKI.KUATKS ARE BIDICCLEO. The Nationalist press speaks of the London pact as an ultimatum and ridicules the efforts ef the German delegates to count up their "successes." The Btlnnes paper talks about 'l ost oportunlty" and sees the Ixjndon conference as the beginning of a new era of force which now is sactloned by all the Allies, and even by America, A like view Is taken by the Tagge-blatt. which sees certain econlrale advantages, but finds Germany's legal position to be much worse because el Premier MacDonald's "nice distinction between principle and practice," Even the defenders of the agreement only can say that Germany could not do anything but "accept the best she could gel."

Southwestern Point of Island Now Is Goal. Italian Airman Joins Yankees at Reykjavik Cruisers Move To Form New Patrol Line. Reykjavik, Iceland, August 17 (By Associated Press).

Lieutenant Lowell H. Smith, commander of the American army round-the-world flight, has decided to give up the proposed flight from Reykjavik to Angmagaallk, on the east coast of Greenland, and with Lieutenant Erik Nelson will fly instead to Frederlcksdal on the southwestern point of Greenland, a short distance from Cape Farewell. The correspondent of the Associated Press today found Smith and Nelson studying maps of Greenland, making measurements of distance and devla tion. The Jump from Reykjavik to Frederlcksdal will be the longest and most dangerous of all they have attempted In their world flight 823 miles. It is estimated that, without stopping, the air men will be forced to fly 12 hours.

Bpth men appeared to be cheerful over the decision to go to Frcd-ericksdal. EARLY START PROPOSED. Lieutenant Smith said he was glad the question of a landing place had been 'settled, and that he and Nelson would make from Reyk Javlk on the first day that weather conditions are right. While the correspondent was talking with the --American fliers. Lieutenant Locatelll, the Italian air man who reached here today from Horn, afjord, called on Lieutenant Smith and handed a letter to him from the American air attache of the Embassy In Rome.

The letter was 20 days old. Lieutenant Locatelll arrived hers at 11:44 o'clock and landed in the outer harbor. Later the Italian plane was brought Into the Inner harbor and anchored between the planes of Lieutenants Smith and Nelson. It is still uncertain when Locatelll will leave Reykjavik, and where his next landing place will be. There Is no hint that the Italian aviator has any idea of getting to the American continent before the American fliers.

PATROL MIES CHANGED. On Board the United States Cruiser Raleigh, August 17 (By Associated Press). After beating up and down the coast of Greenland for a week in the vicinity of Angmagsallk the Raleigh today headed for a new position lying east, northeast of Cape Farewell, the southernmost point in Greenland, to be In readiness for the flight of the American army planes from Reykjavik to Frederlcksdal, a short distance to the northwest of Cape Farewell. The high winds and rough seas of the last five days had moderated this morning and, so far as the weather of Greenland Is amenable to the general rule there was promise of better conditions for a few days at least As under the previous plans, there will be a string of torpedo boat destroyers and cruisers along the route of the American planes to loaure their safety. Despite the Increased distance of flight to all appearances Lieutenant Smith and Lieutenant Nelson have a better chance of success than If they flew to Angmagsallk, where the Ice conditions were bad and the possibility of an accident on landing waa great.

Struck twice by officers' bullets, Eskowsky crawled into a thicket and fired two bullets into his head from his revolver. Eskowsky was taken to a hospital at New Brighton, where, if he regains consciousness, he will be questioned regarding the murder of ten-year-old Francis McDonnell, who was strangled and' when in a woods near his Port Richmond home July 14.

Eskowsky, known in Graham Beach and South Beach as the "Hermit In the Woods," built his flimsy shack six weeks ago, after coming here from Philadelphia. Boys ranging in ages from 7 to 10 who ventured near the shack quickly ran away and reported 'to their parents that the hermit "tried to grab them," but this was discredited until, last week, when ten-year-old George Johnson, of Grant City. Staten Island, ran screaming from the woods. George told his chum, William Bellach, 14 years old, that the hermit had attempted to drag him into bis shack.

Several residents of Graham Beach went to Eskowsky'a hut, but found the place deserted. This afternoon William espied the hermit walking in Jeffereon avenue. Grant City, and went at once to tell Salvatore Pace, keeper of a gasoline station nearby, that the man was the one who attempted to attack George Johnson. ACCUSED IS CAPTURED. Pace borrowed a revolver from a friend, halted the hermit anVi tried to force him to walk to a police station.

The hermit apparently acquiesced, but after walking a block, with Pace's revolver pressed to his back he broke away and ran. After a few rods he halted, swung about and fired at Pace, who dodged into a store and called police. The hermit ran on with' another man, George Curry, is The hermit, swinging, his revolver as he ran, turned and fired at Curry, but the bullet went wild. By this time several other persona joined the chase and Eskowsky, seeing that he was losing ground, left the road and ran toward the woods. SHOTS FIRED IN WOODS.

New York. August 17. The overworked phrase, "Irony of fate," was used throughout Sing Sing today when Robert Allen, a prisoner who had served three years of an eleven-year term for burglary, asked for permission to communicate with Judge Lewis Ralsig, of Long Beach, L. The Judge had issued a warrant for Allen's arrest as soon as he Is set free in connection with another burglary. Ordinarily there Is a vast amount of red tape in connection with such legal and Judicial procedure.

In Allen's case, however, he was advised simply to walk over to the prison coal heap and talk to one of the inmates shoveling coal there. The Inmate in question is Judge Raisig, who was sentenced to the penitentiary for having embexzled fines. The Judge, a newcomer to the prison, does not have the privilege accorded to other inmates, and, accordingly, Allen, now well acquainted, must wait until prison rules will give him an opportunity to confer with the Judge and talk things over with him. Allen, who Is 24 years old. has had a model record so far In prison, and with time off "for good behavior should obtain his release by 1 J2S.

The warrant for his rearrest at that time has been lodged with Edward Hlckty, Chief Clerk at 81 ng Sing, and will be served upon him before he leaves the prison door a However, if Allen can satisfy authorities that he Intends to keep up his present good conduct, it is In their discretion to let the warrant, or "retainer," as It Is known at Sing Sing, lapse until such tima as a backsliding from the reform should develop. The guards all are with Allen In the hope that Judge Raisig will agree to recommend leniency. snoiu, oisriTcx ro bkqctub. Chicago, August 17. The monotony of the Franks case ought to be broken this week by arguments 6f the attorneys.

It was predicted today that Judge John R. Caverly would have the fate' of Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb in his hands for a decision within a week. One of the big questions alienists have failed to agree upon ia where does sanity end and insanity begin. Leopold and Loeb are "border line" cases, according to alienists of the defense. In other words, the slayers of Robert Franks are not craxy, but still, they are not mentally, sound.

Alienists retained by the state pronounce them "normal and accountable for their acts." The defense would like to. prove that they are not normal. If sane the laws say they may suffer the death penalty for their crimes. If mentally deficient, then the law says they must be sent to an asylum or a penal institution. Dr.

Singer, state alienist has been the most damaging withness yet introduced by State's Attorney Robert E. Crowe to tear down the "dream world" built up by the defense to save. the young slayers. When Court recessed yesterday Dr. Singer was undergoing a severe cross-examination by Clarence Dar-row, noted criminal attorney, who Is directing the defense.

Dr. Singer will go back on the stand when Court reconvenes tomorow morning. Dr. Singer, author of "Insanity and the Law," and former alienist at the FIVE JUDGES Sentenced Te Long Prison Terms in Moscow For Bribery and Unbecoming Conduct. Moscow, August 17.
