Sunday, June 29 (Associated Press). The Turkish delegation which now Is In Paris has been sent by the Council of Four a note advis ing it that nothing would be gained by its longer stay in Paris at the present time, as the questions which the Turks liave raised touch interna tional questions that cannot be de cided upon speedily.

The Council in the note advises the Turkish repre sentatives that the Ottoman Govern ment will be informed in due course when the time has arrived for an ex change of ideas which will be likely to prove profitable. The text of the note is as follows: "The principal Allied and Associated Powers desire to thank the Turkish delegation for the statements which they requested permission to lay be fore the Peace Conference. These statements have received and will continue to receive the careful con sideration which they deserve. But they touch on other Interests besides those of Turkey and they raised in ternational questions whose imme diate decision is unfortunately impos sible.

Lexington Not To Issue Bar Licenses Lexington, June 30. No saloon licenses will be issued in Lexington while wartime prohibition is in force, the city commissioners unanimously decided to-day.

TO WITHDRAW SPELLER Special to The Courier-Journal. Frankfort, Juno 30. After formally opening" proposals from publishers holding1 present contracts for adoption of their books and bids for contracts to furnish textbooks for the next five years, the State Textbook Commission adjourned this aft ernoon until 9 o'clock to-morrow mornins, at which time State Super intendent V. O. Gilbert, secretary of he commission, will have the propos als and bids tabulated.

Gov. Black, who called the com to order, said nothing: at all was done besides opening: the bids and adopting- a resolution that all sessions, excepting: those required by law to be executive, shall be public, The adoptions are required by law to be in executive session. How many books comprise the com mon and Jiiffh school courses, wheth er the commission must retain 50 pe cent, of all books in both courses considered as a whole, or in fach sep arately. and whether, in case 'ess than 50 per cent, is offered at the sam price as at present, the commission must adopt those so offered and then advertise for new bids for the rest, are questions not yet considered by the commission. It became apparent to-day that nothing that can be avoided will be allowed to stand in the way of adoption of the Winston readers, repre sented by Phil Grinstead.

and included in the adoption thrown out by the court. The two arithmetics probably are next in order. This is the first State to adopt the readers and at least three carloads more were shipped to Kentucky when the recent illegal adoption was announced. Grinstead said this morning that his speller, published in Lexington, probably would not be offered. His stated reason was that unjust criti cism had been directed against It.

is understood that the principal rea son is the necessity for eliminating everything possible to make way for the change of the six readers. Publishers of the two geographies, two arithmetics and two grammars are opposed to Grinstead getting sev en books out of a possible ten chances. They may have to let the two upper readers go to make room for the arithmetics. Ginn Company is not offering its two grammars for readoption. This was explained by its representative on the ground that prices have gone up instead of down since February.

Publication of the books at the pres ent price would be unprofitable and the company is offering a new series in-place of this one, which the commission did not consider for readoption before. This necessitates two changes and to that extent narrows the freedom of the commission mak ing changes. It is reported that two and proba five other books are offered at an advance price. If this is a fact, it will. necessitate.

more changes. Supt. Gilbert said to-night that they will be able to say until to-morrow morning whether 50 per cent, of the books have been offered for readop tion at the present price. There is a report that, -in spite of what the Court of Appeals said, the writing series will be considered eight instead of one bpok and if Ray's arithmetic is counted there would be twenty-nine books, 50 per cent, of which could be changed, a maximum of fourteen. This would give the commission more leeway.

Gilbert declared he was misquoted this morning and that he must have been misunderstood, as he did not say he would not vote for Grinstead's speller. POLICE FORCE IN MIDDLESBORO ON PROTEST STRIKE Indignant Over Conviction of Fellow Officer On Murder Charge. Special to The Courier-Journal. Middlesboro, June 30. Since conviction of Policeman "William White, charged with murder of Willie Evans, the Middlesboro police force.

backed by the city administration, has cone on a strike and refused to make arrests for any violation unless there i3 warrant sworn out by a citi zen. Last Friday night there was a general fray in the negro section of the city, in -which a negro man was shot and another cut. A call was sent to headquarters and police refused to respond unless someone would go to the city hall and swear out a warrant Last night there were some fifty shots fired in various sections of the town and no attempt was made by the police to find out who the violators were. The city administration is very indignant over the conviction of Policeman White, feeling it a slam at the administration. of it of can no HITCHCOCK IN DEFENSE Washington, June CO (Associated Press).

The League of Nations covenant and the. influences at work to secure its acceptance by the United States furnished the vehicle to-dny for another long debate in the Senate. Renewing his charge that' inter national bankerr. are sponsoring the league for selfish purposes, Sena tor Borah, Republican, Idaho, charged that Thomas W. Lamont, a partner in the Morgan banking: house, has purchased the cw York Evening Post as part of a propaganda to force Senate acceptance of the covenant.

He charged that the League To Knfcrce Peace, headed by former PresiJent Taft, iilso was controlled by the bankers. Senator Hitchcock. Democrat, Ne braska, defending Mr. Taft and his or- animation, replied that not only bus iness men but organized labor, th churches, the farmers and the people generally were demanding ratification of the covenant. Every test of popular opinion that had been taken anywhere, he said, had shown an overwhelming sentiment for the league.

The league covenant was defended also by Senator Gerry, Democrat, of Rhode Island, in a speech declaring it the only hope of Europe during re construction, and was attacked by Senator Fall, Republican, of New Mexico, who declared he could not vote for its ratification without vio- ating his oath as a Senator. Many others were drawn into the debate, which occupied virtually the entire day's Says IOch Men Want It. Senator Borah declared that before the debate on the League closed he would show that big financial inter ests were in conclave to exploit the natural resources of Europe and have the United States underwrite the in vestment. 'The mask of hypocrisy will be torn off," he said, "and even the sacred name of an ex-President cannot be used to. protect the men who propose to sell out this country." The Idaho Senator read from a pub lication of the League to Enforce Peace a statement that three-fourths of the contributions to that organi zation came from business men and said that while the name of Kuhn, Loeb Company was not among the concerns mentioned, he had evidence that it should be there.

Reading a letter which he said had been sent to agents of the league rging that telegrams and repre sentatives be sent to Washington to aid in influencing senatorial opinion, Senator Borah said: Yet these people are determined that there shall be no popular vots pon this proposition while they or ganize for the purpose of having cerT" tain influential gentlemen come her to confer with Senators and create a false impression." Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, Ne braska, interrupted to say that the average subscriptions received by the League to Enforce Peace had been J83, and that it was composed of 6,576 members. He read a statement which he said the league had prepared in anticipation of an attack against it In the Senate. This statement said the largest subscription was- $35,000 and the next $5,000, while only 132 subscriptions were for 51,000 or more. Senator Borah, in reply, said if th statement read by Senator Hitchcock set forth that only two subscriptions were for 35,000 or more, the error evl-dently was made intentionally by th league, as the bulletin prepared by It and read by him undoubtedly was correct. Hitchcock In Defense Senator Hitchcock presented a mass of figures and many resolutions designed to show an overwhelming sentiment for the league.

Every test made anywhere to show the state of public opinion on this league," he asserted, "has resulted favorably to it. Every great church that has yet spoken on the subject has declared for it. Organized labor has voted overwhelmingly in its favor. Women everywhere, rieh and poor women, old and young women, are for it." The Nebraska Senator gave' the results of several newspaper polls all favoring the league. He also referred to the overwhelming majority vote in its favor at the recent convention of the American Federation of Labor, and read resolutions indorsing It passed by the Council of Churches of Christ, the Church Peac Union, the Presbyterian General Assembly, the Methodist Episcopal bishops, the Baptist Church of the North and the International Federation of Catholic.

Alumni. The National Woman Suffrage Association, the Federation of Women's Clubs and many other women's organizations, he said, had approved it. He also asserted the farmers were for the league, the American Agricultural Association having indorsed it, and a poll of the editors of agricultural papers showed sixty-six unqualified ly for the league and one unqualifiedly opposed, with three noncommittal. He argued also that returning sol diers were In favor of the league. though in response to a query from Senator Kenyon, Republican, Iowa, said he had no figures on the sub ject.

Senator Kenyon said he had recelr- ed a letter from a minister declaring: anyone who voted against' the (Continued On P.igc It, Column 7.) the beautiful Miss Shelerah "West, daughter of Col. and Mrs. Cor-wallis West. Immediately after his encraerement he went to the Boer war. and there he lest no time in becoming- entangled with a notorious charmer.

Miss "West heard of this and the encasement was interrupted, but. it was natched ud again and the marriage occurred in 1901. Married life had only just started when the duke began to neglect his wife and his domestic duties. He seemed to prefer the society of sporting men and women of the stage to that of his own class. He made no pretense of caring about his lovely wife and even went so far as to appear in public with a well-known beauty from a musical show in places where he might meet his wife and other women of his family.

The duchess was deeply hurt and angered by her husband's She finally decided -to maks? her husband jealous and proceeded to do nearly everything a duchess would not be expected to do. But the duke did not react as. was expected. Instead of becoming jealous he took the most old-fashioned view of morality and ethics for women only. His own conduct did not influence his judgment in the least.

The duke actually ordered his wife out of the house. Society was eagerly awaiting news of the further developments in this notoriously unhappy match and they had not loner to wait, as the case was one of the first to come up. The duchess has two daughters. Lady Ursula Grosvenor. aged 17, and Lady Mary, aged 9.

Queen Mary was especially severe upon the duch ess for her conduct just prior to their first separation. Lord and Lady Clifton were married in 1912. Lady Clifton formerly was Miss Daphine Fachel Mulhplland. They also have two children. Lord Clifton is 32 years old and was a Major in the royal artillery.

The former Kaiser's attitude toward the Allied demand that he be held responsible for the war is dependent on the length to which thee Allies intend to carry their examination, it was reported to-day. It was unofficially said that Wil-helm would not object to giving himself up to an Allied tribunal if it merely passed judgment on the role he played in starting the war, in violating neutrality and in non-observance of international law. After decisions had been reached on these points, according to the view held here, his movements would be regulated by the supreme authority of the League of Nations.

It is expected that the II. S. LAW CHIEFS SAY EX-KAISER ALONE MUST PAY Hollweg Will Not Be Permit ted To Stand Trial, They Declare. Washington. June 30 (Associated press).

International law experts of the Entente embassies in Washington hold that since Dr. Theobald von Bethmann-Hollweg in his capacity of Chancellor of the German Empire was responsible solely to the former German Emperor, the one time ruler Germany cannot escape full re sponsibility for any and all the acts committed by his subordinates. State Department officials express ed no opinion for publication as to the plea set up by the former Chan cellor that he be substituted for Wil am Hohenzollern in the indictment and trial which under the terms of the treaty must be had of guilty Ger man officials. It is known, however, that Secretary Lansing, as head of the Peace Conference Commission on the Responsibility, has contended from the first that the German Em- eror could not be held to personal accountability. Some International lawyers here are inclined to the belief that the former Emperor might be expected to escape trial and punishment at the hands of such a special tribunal as the peace treaty proposes by challenging its fairness and demanding a change of venue on the ground that the mem bers of the court would be at once his accusers and judges.

Officials in a position to know the sentiment of neutral Governments are of the opinion that The Netherlands never will voluntarily surrender the former Emperor under extradition proceedings, and they say that inasmuch as there has been no serious suggestion that force be used to apprehend him, his trial may proceed in his absence. The Great Northern approached on the port side of the presidential fleet tnen came to a stop and a destroyer transferred the mall bags to the President's ship. The bills awaiting the PresU dent's signature and documents relating to much other Government business were soon spread on the President's desk for his attention. In addition to the two important supply bills there were a number of army and navy court martial reports and several reports from ths Department of Justice. The last day of the fiscal year thus found, the President handling current affairs in mid-Atlantic.

This is firM time in history that such operations of receiving and signing bills in midocean had occurred was commented upon on board as marking another record-breaking advance in modern methods of communication.

Dr. Wilkins, convicted last Friday as the slayer of his wife, Julia, was to have been sentenced to-morrow morning to death in the electric chair at Sing Sing prison.

Wilkins informed the authori ties that both he and his wife had been attacked by three burglars whom they had surprised at work when they returned home. Dr. Wil kins was not at first suspected-of the murder. His story of an attack by burglars was at first accepted and a hunt for the burglars started, but when nothing could be found to support this theory of the physician's account of the crime, he was questioned again, and his story took on many variations, according to the police. or.
