United States to enter the ten-ye- ar European agreement of were aroused y by Lloyd George'H speech, to correspon- dents late last night. .tLloyd George's words regal-din- the necessity of a long truce and his cm-pha- sl in tli: polnl fhat the CMtcd States Is affected by the present dis- organization of Europe were regarded as tentative \feefeis.\ Tho British I'icmler openly ex- pressed deep regiet thut America was absent from Genoa. Ho predicted all Europe would be In a fresh \welter of blood,\ within his time, perhaps. If something were not done. In his speech to the British ana American correspondents Lloyd George said: \The fate of Europe depends upon the course she follows after Genoa. The maintenance of peace depends upon drawing of boundaiies satisfac- tory to all and quieting antagonisms.\ Lloyd George pointed out that prac- tically every frontier in Central Eu- rope was disputed. \I wish America wqre here,\ he said, \Some people think wo want the United States here for some selfish purpose. That is not true. We want America because she exercises a peculiar authority. America could exerclso an Influence no other coun- try could command. \She could come here free and dis- entangled, and with tho prestige which comes from her independent position sh6 would come with the voice of peace.\ Mr. Lloyd George gave It as his opinion that tho disorganization of Europe would affect the entire world, Including tho United States. Ho was. umazed at people who ignored the portentous fact facing Europe. \We triumphed in tho war,\ he said, \but our triumph will not last forover. If our victory develops into oppression, vengeance will follow, juet as Germany's action which Marted the World War was followed by vengeance. \Wo must bo Just and equitable and show strength. We must realize that Europe Is not on good terms and that storms are arising which wo must deal with.

FOUL PLAY FEARED IN COUPLE'S DEATH BROOKLYN HOTEL Jacksons Died Slow Death by Poison, Doctors Announce After Autopsy. Acting on orders of District At- torney John Huston, Captain of De- tectives John Sullivan of Brooklyn Headquarters, and a squad of his best men began this afternoon a special Investigation into the mysterious deaths of Fremont M. Jackson, the retired seventy-fivo-year-o- ld carpet dealer, and his wife, Annie, in the Hotel Margaret, Columbia Heights, Brooklyn, yesterday. The special in- vestigation was prompted by the re- sult of an autopsy held by Dr. Charles Wuest, Medical Examiner, and Dr, Ernest C. Vaughn, representing the District Attornoy, which) established that Mr. Jackson and his wifo died from the effects of poison. Tho state of the heart and lungs of the pair indicated that they had died from cyanide of potassium poisoning, but there were also present indlca tons of poisoning by heroin or opium, The District Attorney Is ordering special investigation because of the belief of all who knew the uged couple that they did not commit suicide. Dr. George Wardenburg of No. 144 St. Marks Avenue, Brooklyn, .who knew Air. Jackson for mors than 30 years and was probably his most In- timate friend in Brooklyn, told the police this afternoon that the idea of suicide was preposterous. \Mr. Jackson an dhls wife,\ he said, \spent Monday evening at my home. They were very happy and talked about arrangements they had made for a party \at their home next Saturday. If they died from poison they did not take it intentionally.\ John Kinney, superintendent of five-stor- y apartment house owned by Mr. Jackson, at No. 405 West 5Sd Street, Manhattan, visited the Dis trict Attorney of Kings County this (Continued or fiwifltUag'C.X. , IN $4,000,000 AN T S GENEROUS SPIRIT WORLD NEED HARDING SAYS Magnanimity of General in Civil War Declared Cure for Present Ills.

In their efforts to recover from the disastrous effects of the World War, need more of tho spirit of magnanimity with which Gen. Ulysses S. Grant wel- comed victory at tho close of the Civil War, president Harding said here y at ceremonies commemo rating the hundredth anniversary of the birth of \the hero pf the '60s.' .Trie President niofte- - from a pat form In front of the little village store to a throng that had come to this hamlet Grant's birthplace to pay1 homage to tho Goneral's memory But it seemed that running through his address was an outstanding thought vhich lie was addressing to the nations of Europe, among which war hatreds and prejudices still ex 1st. That thought was that the re sentments of war must not be per petuated if peace Is to prevail. \I wonder sometimes, said tne President, \If the magnanimity of the dogged, persistent, unalterable Grant In warfare the unconauional sur render Grant would not be helpful in the world \I cannot help but believe that something of the spirit with which Grant welcomed victory, something of his eagerness to return to peaceful ways would have speeded the restor atlon and hastened the return to pros pcrity and happiness, without which there can be no abiding peace. He perpetuated no resentments of war. He clung to his vision of union re stored and bolleved tho shortest route to peace to be the surest way of last ing triumph.\ Praising Grant's \cherlsnment or nenee. intensified by his intimate knowledge of tho horrors of war,\ Hardtnir said ho fel- t- certain the General would approve America's re- cent notion In joining with other na- tions to limit armament and to pro mote understandings which make war less likely. \T vnow be would approve,\ said the President, \because wo have sur rendered no independence, wo gave up none of the nationality for which he fought tout wo have furthered the assurances of peace, which was the supreme yearning of his great, brave heart.\ America, Harding eald, since Grant \garlanded victory with magnanim ty\ has wielded a great Influence in the world. \It will not be unseemly to say tnat American example and American conception of Justice and liberty slnco then have Influenced the world little less significantly than Grant's ser vice to the Union shaped the course of our land.\ The President dwelt Just for a mo ment on forces that have assaulted American civilization, issuing a word of warning. \Our cvillzatlon,\ he said, \was threatened by the World War, and in war's aftermath established order has been assaulted and revolution has threatened throughout the world. \In our own land the enemies have \been more threatening than those without Greed and anarchy have menaced, but a calm survey gives every reassurance\ CINCINNATI, April ST.

Worthless Paper Was Substi- tuted for Securities Con- signed to Massachusetts. The mystery of tho \disappear- ance\ of half a million dollars worth of Liberty bonds sent by the Chnsn National Bank to a bank in Massa- chusetts, ibut which turned out to be a package of worthless paper when delivered in tho Massachusetts mull, was considerably deepened this af- ternoon by a statement from First Vice President William J. Griffin Of the National Surety Company of No. 115 DroadwayrvhlChbr6aril2aUon carried part of thcMlablltty Insurance of the Chase Bank. He said: ''Other companies with which wo had underwritten' a portion of tho risk of the Chase National Bank, and which are therefore Interested with us in this matter, have reported to us that the Post Onice authroltlcs have no record whatever that such u package was received for registered mailing. \We have learned that the package, reported toy tho Chase Bank to con- tain forty-seve- n $10,000 bonds and thirty $1,000 bonds, was prepared for mailing on April 17 in tho bank's. se- curities room on the second floor and .was sent to tho mailing room in tho basement. The bank's records show that it was checked out for mailing. \The Information we have had does not Indicate whether the package was carried to the Post Office In a pouch or by a messenger. We aro Investi- gating thoroughly because we do not now know whether wo nre liable for the loss. If the package was lost In the bank, we are liable, hut If It was lost after leaving the bank we are not. \Tho matter is specifically In the hands of my assistant, .Mr. Arthur Stobbart, who has left tho city with three of our detectives In the progress of his investigation. He will return I expect.\ Tho bonds were never in the cus-tod- y of the Post Office, according to definite and reliable Information obtained y. Tho bonds were ttolen In thU city before they ever got to tho Post Office, It was declared, and It was In this city that worthless paper wns substituted for them. That tho package, carefully shaped to indlcato that It was made up of bonds, contained this worthless paper was not discovered until It was opened in the Massachusetts bank,. The package, all wrapped for ship- ment, it was stated, was placed In the hands of an employee of the bank who had charge of the bank's ship- ments of that kind of packages. A messenger of the bank took It to the Post Office which, In due course, for- warded It to the Massachusetts bank.
