MINISTERS OF THREE NATIONS CONFER TODAY Will Endeavor To Reach Final Settlement Of Reparations Fight Republican A. P. Leased Wire PARIS, Jan. 1 The prime ministers of France, Great Britain and Belgium together with the Marquis Delia Torreta, representing the Italian premier go into conference tomorrow in which is regarded as the.

final effort of the allies to reach a collective settlement of the reparations question. There was a eober and even anxious spirit In allied circles tonight, in face of the probability that, if the conference fails, separate and direct action by France will follow. The meeting is a continuation last month's premiers' conference in London which was called to examine whether any practical result could come from a general congresa In Brussels. The main questions to be decided are. first; whether a moratorium can be granter to Germany and, second, upon what terms.

France and Great Britain are sharply divided in policy. The French ins st upon seizing the productive resources of Germany on the left bank of the Rhine and in the Ruhr Valley as guarantees that, when the moratorium terminates, Germany will resume her reparations payments. President Millerand, in replying to the New Year good wishes of the diplomatic corps today, made it clear that France stands upon her conception of justice and her rights under the treaty of Versailles. "Complete peace can be established," he declared, "only on the basis of the treaties and through rer-rpect for the rights acquired and the obligations The British government thoroughly disapproves stern methods or penalties and desires to work out a plan under wh'ch Germany would be allowed a moratorium of at least two years, this time to be employed in so reorganizing her resources that she may successfully shoulder the debts. Any settlement likely to be successful depends on Mr.

(By the Associated Press.) The sensational raid upon the exclusive Hotel Chase here by federal prohibition agents and police, which resulted in a riot participated in by many of the 2,600 revelers of the New Year there early today, was conducted illegally and unconstitutionally, Chase Ulman, the owner of the hotel, declared tonight. Ulman said the warrant used by Gus O.

Nations chief enforcement officer, which charged Ulman with possession and sale of intoxicating liquors, failed of service when it was not served on him but thrust into the vest pocket of the assistant manager. Asserting there was no authority for the search, Ulman said he was undecided as to what action he would take in connection with the raid, which culminated in the drive of the officers from the main dining room amidst a shower of missiles after a shot had been fired by an unidentified person, wounding two men and a woman. Two hundred and fifty men. guests at the hotel, were Intoxicated and their attack on the prohibition agents was the cause of his ordering the men to withdraw. Nations declared tonight.

As to whether a federal agent or one of the detectives who were with him fired the shot, Nations asserted he did not know. "There were about 250 drunks in the room and it was from them -that we met the opposition," Nations continued. "When they began throwing things and pressing toward us I saw-that should we avail ourselves of all the means of resistance we could have rightfully used, many innocent people would have been hurt or killed. So I told the men to get ouc nicely and quietly as possible." Mrs. James Robinson 3G years old, was struck in the left ankle by the bullet presumably after it had wounded two men.

John Pazdera, 28, was shot through the left leg and George H. Bode suffered a wound in the right foot. The disturbance started soon after the agents changed their tactics of making a superficial inspection of tlijp dining table as they walked about the open floor space reserved for dancing and began to search about the tables for concealed liquor, pushing back unoccupied chairs and weaving their way between the closely packed tables. The gathering of a crowd around the officers was a signal for virtually all the guests to cease dancing although the orchestra played on w-ith full force. The crowd pushed the agents and police against the wall of the main dining room and then ihe missiles began to fly.

Glasses full of water, piates bearing the entree which had just been served flower vases and even chairs were hurled. Women became hysterical and added their screams to the uproar made by the noisemakers furnished by the hotel, the shouts of the men and the rhythm of the orchestra. The shot virtually ended the disturbances and waiters set about restoring order. The police report states that during the riot there were cries of "here comes Nations lynch him," and that the crowd surged around the raiders and forced them out into the lobby, where they were met by reinforcements of police who had been attracted to the scene. Riot calls soon produced more officers, so at the end there were approximately 200 police around the hotel entrance.

IS THE Eh THE Y7 caupht, prohibition enforcement asents killed all the joy that mitfht have been. It was only in the tuckctd away places that revelers were unmolested. For in all of the better known and even the smaller places of the Broadway district, prohibition enforcement aifents policemen watched for the tilt iii.tr of flasks and In some 1,000 resorts the enforcement atrents worked. There were only 129 prohibition law arrests in all seventy by federal agents and 59 by the police. About 200 gallons of liquor were taken from 41 establishments.

K. Yellowly, state director of prohibition enforcement. declared that the result of his staff's work was "more than satisfactory. Most of those arrested were released In bail today pending grand jurv action. Fines of $10 and up were imposed on a few drinkers who pleaded guilty.

Some of the cabaret managers, while not bold enough to dispense liquor from their stores, if thev had any, provided as best they could, for the protection of their flask -toting pa reus. The ruse of one Ingenious manager was effective for a spell. The jazz band played one piece to numerous encores and during the chorus, the lights were dimmed. The enforcement agents finally got suspicious and arrested two men as the lights flared up. Widow Is Held For Murder Of Wealthy Texas Lumber Man PEAUMONT, Jan.

We pray that he may have wisdom to steer the ship of state over the Ureakers of extravagance and the deep seas of indebtedness which now confront him.

"During his tenure of office spara him the unjust, unreasonable criticism of disgruntled, mugwump Democrats, shrew and designing Republican politicians and sensational headlines of newspapers. Grant that he may have the support and cooperation of all sections, from every hilltop high and valley low. from desert waste and city full, from thesa rich and fertile valleys where the lowing herds come winding o'er the lee and the plowman homeward plods his weary way. "From the Golden West where the sun gilds the western hills and the beautiful Colorado winds It way like a silver thread on its way to tle ocean. From the north where snow-capped mountains andwTtis pines kiss the skies and (Aurora Borealis shines at midnight -like noonday sun.

From the east where the quivering, glimmering rays of th coming sun prophesy the approach, of the coming day and the stars pout their lustre on the mountain slopes. From the sunny south where th notes of the nightingale are morl melodious than the lays and lutes of Olympus and the song of the mocking bird, sweeter than the sound ot the dulcimer that is heard Jn th shadow of death. "Grant Lord that the banner ot peace and prosperity may wavo over Arizona until every state in tha union shall point with pride to this, the youngest, fairest daughter brightest star that shines in the ga laxy of states, and that Arizona ma i be regarded as the playgrqund, oi the angels. Lord, if we have not asked foi all we want and need, it is ttupple-mented in the marvelous prayer thou hast taught us to sayvwhen we pray regardless of our political alalia tion or religious creed, Our Father, who art in heaven, etc." The properties of the state lnclud-. ing buildings, real estate and equip ment are worth $7,521,869.32 acooid ing to the inventory and appraisal cf the state's property made by Charles W.

Jan. 1. Discovery of "a cabin in a lonely canyon near Los Angeles," where Mrs. Clara Phillips, hammer murderess," who escaped from the Los Angeles county jail December ti.

"concealed herself for at least four after the Jail break, was announced at the sheriff's office tonight. The statement was made that Armour L. Phillips, husband of the convicted murderess, was known to have "purchased food at a grocery near the cabin for four days after his wife's escape" and that another man whose identity has not been learned delivered the food at the cabin. The officers declined to name the exact loeation of the cabin, but declared their investigations proved it had been occupied recently. They said this discovery offered them the first "real clew" to the whereabouts of Mrs.

Phillips and that it would be followed by an intensified effort to locate her. Among their first steps, it was stated, would be a requestioning of Phillips, who would be asked to explain his alleged purchases of food and to name the man who made the deliveries. After that all persons living in the vicinity of -the cabin are to be questioned. According to Frank Dewar, deputy sheriff, Phillips appeared at the grocery on four consecutive days immediately after his wife's escape, paid for a supply of food, ordered that some of it be cooked, and told the proprietor anothdr man would call for it later. Toward evening, the second man would arrive, obtain the food and hurry away.

The grocer is said to have given the officers a good description of the man. The officers said they did not believe Mrs. Phillips remained in the cabin more than four days, as the purchases of food at the grocery ceased after that period, and it would have been dangerous for her to appear in public to obtain supplies in person. They said they believed she was transported by friends either to another state or to Mexico. Phillips recently announced plans to return to his former hoVne in Houston, but is believed still to be in or near Los Angeles, officers said.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 1 Dorothy Davenport, screen actress, declared here tonight that her husband, Wallace Reid motion picture actor, never had been a patient at any sanitarium conducted by John Scott Barker, as the latter stated in Oakland, today, after he had been arrested for violation of narcotic laws. "I met the man once at our home," said Miss Davenport, "when he was introduced to us by another doctor, in hose sanitarium, Mr.

Reid passed two weeks." Reid was cured of the drug habit at that time and went to the sanitarium because he had been advised the doctor who conducted it was an expert in caring for persons recovering from the drug habit. "We were given to understand the doctor conducting it and Doctor Barker had been associated in the past, but I was under the impression their asociation had been dissolved." Reid, who recently suffered a collapse, due, his wife and her mother said, to physical weakness resulting from abandonment of drugs and liquor is reported as steadily improving. -o TAILOR MAID WINS SAN DIEGO, Jan. 1.
