(By The Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Dec. 29—Norman Hapgood, is no longer American min- ister to Denmark, it was said'today at the State Department. Officials ex- plained that His Senate had failed to confirm his nomination before the end of the special session on November 19, and that since he was not given a reces'S appointment \by President. Wil- son, his commission automatically ex- pired on that date. Mr. Hapgood, who returned from Copenhagen several days ago, was in conference today with Secretary Lan- sing discussing the situation in soviet Russia. It was said that the situa- tion pictured by the former minister on the basis of information reaching him at Copenhagen did not differ ma- terially from that\ described in dis- patGhes reaching the department from other sources. Officials would not discuss report- ] ed charges-* that Mr. Hapgood had j been sympathetic toward -.the soviet I authorities while he was acting as I • American minister in th,e- Danish cap- ! jital. -!-. ; | hi the most mysterious Louisville case in many years, was required J,o fur- nish $15,000 bail at the conclusion of argument on motion for hail in police court hero today and elected to stay in jail, pending his examination later in the week. Dr. Schott's attorney asserted the amount was excessive in view of the showing that has heen made for their Client, by Laurene G-ardner, a girl of 13, who has asserted that she was in the company of the physcician, deliver- ing- Christmas presents at the time\ it is believed Miss Griffith was shot and lulled. The little Gardner girl after being confined in the detention home on the charge of delinquency was released on nominal bond pending a trial in juvenile court. A feature connected with the case which excited great interest, was police announcement that Dr. Schott, in. effect, had advocated a trial mar- riage of 'Miss Griffith, his one time finance, and a soldier. The theory of Dr. Schott, according to this version, was that such a marriage would fit her eventually to become his wife. Testimony, at Dr. Schott's prelim- inary examination disclosed what the police term a curious love- tangle. The physician admitted, the record shows, that lie had heen engaged to marry Miss Griffith, but that- the en- gagement had been broken after \lie had objected to attentions she had l-eeeived from other men. Some time afterward, witnesses related, she be- came engaged to Captain George K. Jordan, an officer of the first divis- ion noAv stationed at Camp Zachary Taylor, and that tlie date for their wedding had been fixed for about time she met death'. Dr. Schott, on the witness stand, however, -said he approved of the proposed marriage, explaining according' tb a transcript of his testimony, that she would live with the soldier but a short time, wiling to return to him and even: •ually make him a good wife. it GOES ON ROCKS I j (By The Associated Press) | j HALIFAX, Dec. 29.—Fiye survivors j I of the crew of the Belgian steamer I Anton Van Driel were battling desper-' I ately for life tonight on the wreck oiE ] rT ,. . __ ....„_ .. , | their ship which was fast being! .T..W|thwhom she has lived ever since ! pounded to pieces on the jagged locks | iff .Brooklyn.
