Six German workers at the Krupp plant in Essen have been killed and twenty injured in a conflict with the French military, says a dispatch from Essen Saturday. The trouble occurred through the French unexpectedly proceeding to occupy certain of the Krupp's motor works, whereupon the workers stopped the machinery and went outside to offer opposition, the message tates. The officer in charge of the French tried to persuade the men to return to duty, but they refused and surrounded the troops threatening them with attack unless they withdrew. The officer pointed out that he must carry out his orders, but the workers were obdurate, declaring they would defend their plant.

While various interpretations may be put upon the note the reparations commission is sending to Germany in connection with her foreign currency loan Issue, the correct one acording to some of the best Informed circles, is that it holds in substance that there is no question of the German government's right to offer the loan but that here does exist a question as to the security it may SENDS RESIST FRENCH Arrest Supposed Driver Milford, Utah.

The text of the note, prepared by Sir John Bradbury of England and M. Delacroix of Belgium, calls attention to article 248 of the Versailles treaty, defining priority rights in re. paration, and continues: ''The commission makes express reserve, as against subscribers to the loan, of Its right of priority against any funds which may be assigned by the German government to the payment of interest for the repoyment of capital to the loan in question, more particularly if the receipt itself Is not applied to the discharge of reparation annuities." It is apparent that there was considerable discussion before the text of the note was drafted, and the discussion made it first necessary to obtain the interpretation placed upon article 24S by the legal Bection of the commission. The French contended this article applied virtually to any assets of Germany unless her reparation obligations were first sat-isfle- d. It is affirmed that the original intention of the French was to prevent the launching of the loan with a but guarantee by the Relchsbank, now that the loan is said to be but 60 per cent subscribed the original French position has been temporarily modified.
