Whit- ing had arrested Mrs. Alberta Leboeuf, aged 40, and charged her with attempted murder, The child, its eyes and mouth filled with dirt and its clothing wet, was taken to the hospital and is reported to he showing no ill effects from being buried alive. Hospital authorities reported the child to be ten days old, Lawrence Williams, 17-year-old Indian youth, working on the road near a bush on the reservation, had observed a car enter the bush yes- terday and today, After it left to- night he entered the bush and found a mound of new earth and investigated, He noticed it tremor slightly and then he heard a child cry. He ran all the way to the south end of the city and called the police, The High Constable called a doctor. On his arrival, the child had been taken out of the earth and rushed to the hospital. A woman's footprints were no- ticed near the mound, and the High Constable, accompanied by City Detective James Byrley, went to the hospital, where three nurses identified the baby as the child born to Mrs, Leboeuf on June 25. She was found at a local hotel end immediately taken into custody. Police are of the opinion that an attempt was first made to drown the child, in view of the wet condi» tion of its clothes. Mrs. Leboeuf had been employed in two local hotels, RUSSIA SEEKS SHIPS TO TRANSPORT GRAIN London, July b.--Great excite- ment has arisen in the British grain and shipping market over the heavy purchases of grain for Rus- sia and charters for ships to carry it in. It is stated that in the last two or three days more than 200, 000 tons have been bought. This confirms reports already made that the crop was a failure, and there was consequently immi- nent famine in Russia. In all cas- es purchases were made against the documents. Inquiries were made in the shipping markets today for ships to load grain from Montreal this month for Russian ports and arrangements were made to ship all grain bought in Europe to Lenin- grad, while further inquiries were made for vessels to load from Hamburg and Rotterdam for Black Sea ports. Rates for the last charters were 9s 6d a ton ($2.28), with 6d extra (12 cents) for discharge at two ports. This is an advance of over 10 per cent in a few days. The tonnage also of ships char- tered for the voyage from Liverpool to Lengingrad, according to report, is fixed at 5s 9d per ton ($1.38) and rates of 10s per ton ($2.40) are quoted for the diversion to Black Sea ports of vessels now en route from South America to Europe with grain. TO STABILIZE LEI Bucharest, July 5.--Stabilization of the Rumanian lei, which for years wavered between 160 and 300 to the dollar, is now regarded as assured. The Cabinet has ap- proved a convention between the Rumenisn National Bank and, other foreign banks which will en-, gble the Government to fix the, value of the lei in the neigaber| hood of 162 for the dollar, *» FRANCE ANXIOUS TO BANISH WARS Premier Poincare Speaker at July 4 Dinner in Paris Paris, July 5.--To thé cheers of more than 400 Americans asscin- bled in the Hotel Du Palais D 'Or- say for the American Chamber of Commerce's annual Fourth of July eve dinner, Premvier Poincare de- clared that France was ready to co-operate to the fullest degree to banish offensive wars from the earth. \ Without mentionin, Kellogg's peace pact in so many words, the Premier left no doubt that it was Washington's efforts to renounce war which he himsel! was indors- ing publicly for the first time. His speech was climaxed in a fervent declaration of new Franco-Ameri- ean unity which was far more French in temperament than M. Poincare usually expresses himself. A tremendous ovation--perhaps one of the most impressive tributes that an American gathering ever has paid to a Premier--echoed throughout the hall as the man who saved France closed his ad- dress. DARING PLOT FOILED BY ALBANIAN POLICE Tirana, Albania, July 5.--A new and daring plot to assassinate Ahmed Zogu, President of Albania, was unearthed today by police, who arrested a number of Bulgarian suspects and Major Ismail Shahin, alleged to be a representative of former Premier Hassan Pristina. The plot had two ramifications, police declared. The would-hen as- sassins first planned to waylay the President and shoot him from ambush, as he travelled from Tir- ana to Koritza, by automobile. Their design was learned and the trip abandoned at the last moment. Shortly afterward, a huge time bomb was discovered in Ahmed Zogu's villa at Durazzo, which he intended to visit, As the villa has been heavily guarded by soldiers, police fear the homh was planted hy one of his own household. A number of high officials are said to be under suspicion.
