TUGS RESCUE 24 PERSONS DRIFTING TO SEA IN STORM Women and Children in Barges Torn From Their Moorings By Associated Press. New York, March 29.—Twenty four persons, fourteen of them chil dren and five women, were rescued last night by naval tugs as they were drifting out to sea in five barges which were torn from their moor ings in the lower bay by the storm yesterday. The barges, each bearing its cap tian with his wife and children, had been swept ten miles southeast of .Sandy Hook lightship before the three naval tugs overtook them. Relief within a few hours is fore cast by the YVeather Bureau from the blizzard which swept over the city, paralyzing the harbor, breaking many telegraph and telephone lines, and causing traffic congestion un- ' rivaled during the winter. Lashed by a gale that rose at ! times to a ninety-mile an hour ve- j locity, and lost in swirling snow, the j Norwegian bark Y'ola and the Stand ard Oil bark Socony were driven j ashore in the harbor. Two men j caught a half mile off shore in a | small boat were drowned when the craft capsized. Many steamers due here yester- | day. including the troop ships Santa j Anna and Santa Olivia, were com- i polled to delay entry into the har bor. In the city scores of minor acct- : dents were reported. Surface cars. | automobiles and wagons were in | frequent collision; pedestrians, blind ed by the snow, walked in front of j moving vehicles but wer saved from serious injury by the slowness with which all traffic moved. Icy pavements caused many falls. —1 Pen-Mar Policeman Is Keeping Order in Germany i Waynesboro. Pa., March 29 - ; Sergeant John K .Zang.

France claimed all her 1914 frontier and the Saar basin, leaving to the German popu lations not included in the frontier political autonomy. It was demand ed by the F'rench delegate that the Rhine serve France as u natural frontier. Germany having the left bank of the stream, but without fortified works, troops or railways. The Australian peace delegates have pointed out that the proposed amendment to the League of Na tions covenant regarding the Mon roe doctrine, providing for recog nition of the binding force of the policies heretofore applied, would ! validate and confirm Japanese claims to preponderance in China and the Orient. Delay Jjeaguc Amendment Fear is expressed in some quar ters that the opposition which has developed on this account may jeopardize the amendment. Experts are trying to find a formula that will overcome this objection, and, meanwhile, the amendment has been withheld from insertion in the covenant. No decision has been reached, it appears, regarding the place where the German financial mission which is to hold consultations with allied representatives shall be received. It is said, however, that the report that the Germans would arrive at Versa!lies on Sunday is incorrect. It is considered more probable that they will be directed to proceed to Brussels or to Spa where the place for the holding of the conferences will be made known to them. That place, it is declared, will, probably not be Versailles. The four government heads to ! day deliberated on the question of the Polish frontier, according to the newspapers, who believe that there will be some difficulty in reaching an agreement on the principle of the ■ annexation to Poland of territory containing two to three million Ger mans. The papers believe that the cotincil will reach a decision sooner on the question of reparations than on the Polish question. Prisoner Accused of Shooting Escapes From Adams County Jail GettyHbu re. Pa., March 29.—John Miller, who confessed to the shoot ing of Abner Mills, a merchant whom he attempted to rob last month, made a bold daylight escape from the Ad ams county jail here yesterday, but was recaptured at MeSherrystown last evenning. Miller gained access to the corri dor by sawing the bolt from the door of his cell. Both doors leading from the corridor to the prison yard were open and none of the guards was in sight. Prison authorities are at a loss to know where he gained pos session of the saw. Sheriff Hartman hda been down street, and as he rounded the post office corner he saw the man walk out the front door, but did not reclg nize him at that distance as one of the prisoners. Upon his arrival at the prison he made inquiry as to who had gone out and when he failed to get any information walked back in the jail to discover the prisoner gone. By this time Miller was out of sight and local officers and State Police were at once notified and the search started, and he was found at McSherrytstown and brought back to jail. It has been feared that something of this kind would happen. Four men were in the jail on charges of shooting, Collins and Reinecker, con victed of the killing of George Bush man, and Miller and Fred Moore, charged with the shooting of Mills, tr.issioners offered to provide a guard for the jail, to be kept on duty day and night, but Sheriff Hartman was firm in his opinion that the methods he was using were ample protection.
