Arrest will follow closely upon the
arrest of a material witness, accord

from the Coroner's office have worked
independently of the police depart

Meanwhile, Captain of Detectives
‘Tate has announced he has more
evidence to sustain his theory that
Grace Roberts was killed by Bernard
W. Lewis, Pittsburger, who killed
himself when about to beé arrested.
District Attorney Rotan says his '.ht-AI

were caused by Grace Roberts' thth;

NEW YORK, Jan. 11.—Harry K.
Thaw is still starring today in his fa
vorite role—a fugitive from scores of
detectives,
Despite the fact that relatives have
given the New York. authorities as
surances Thaw will surrender him
self to answer to the charge of kid
naping and whipping 19-year-old
Frederick Gump, of Kansas City, he
has falled to appear here. The spec
tacular escape to Canada made by
Thaw in his flight from Matteawan
will not be repeated, detectives say.
‘They are confident he can not escape,
‘and predict he will be taken today.
Whatever action follows the trial of
Thaw on the indictments now stand
ing against him, it seems apparent he
will not be allowed his freedom, once
in the cluteh of the New York au
thorities. At the District Attorney's
office it was sald today that a fresh
examination of Thaw on Insanity
charges might be forced by that of
fice,
While all citles in the East have
been asked to keep a watch for Thaw,
authorities are centerlng their search
upon Western Pennsylvania, The
only definite ilnformation of Thaw's
whereabouts since the indictments
were found against him is that he
lunched at & country inn near Strouds
burg, Pa., Tuesday. The wild Pocono
Mouatain regions there, with numer
ous small mountain hostelries and
private lodges, would make an ideal
place for seclusion, and would allow
Thaw easy access to his friends and
resources in Pittsburg, detectives say.
Detectives are attomptln? to learn
the identity and location of some 50
boys who were card indexed in code
in Thaw's papers, according to au
|nmrm«~n, The index, detectives say"
which was taken from Ollver Brow
er whén he was arrested in Philadel

tained the names of boys in Califor
nia, particularly in Long Beach, Hot

PITTSBURG, Jan, 11.—Despite

is not here. After action was refused
vesterday afternoon on a telegram
from Assistant Attorney Black, of
New York, seeking the assistance of
the Pittsburg police in locating Thaw,
A message late last night from New

Permanent Peace Talk
Must Wait Until War
Is Ended, Asserts Hale
BY WILLIAM BAYARD HALE,
Staff Ccm:rondent of international
/ ews Service.
BERLIN, Jan. 11,—The attention ofl
high officlals of the German Govern
ment wag called to a radlogram fromf
the International News Service re
porting that in American opinion
much importance is attached to the
point whether the problem of the pre
vention of future wars is considered
apart from the question of ending
the present struggle.
Germany’s answer to President
Wilson states that the task of safe
guarding the world from wars to
come is possible only after the end
of the present struggle,
In bringing this inquiry to the at
tention of officlals here I invited in
terpretation of the passage.
_ “When this moment shall have
come, Germany will be ready with
pleasure to collaborate with the Unit
ed States.
Furthermore, I endeavored to as
certaln what chance Germany sees
for peace unless guarantees against
a future war are lald down in the
peace articlea,
The German Government at this
moment 1s unwilling to give utter
ance to any further words for publi
cation. It feels that it has as little
as possible to say at the present
Juncture and awaits in silence the
Entente Powers' response to Presi
dent Wilson's note,
It is not difMcult to obtain pri
vately expressed views from respon
‘sible heads of the Government. There
s perfect agreement on the following
sentiment:
The German Government feels that
no firmer statement on the point of
permanent peace is goulble than the
following sentence from the nate of
December 12:
“The propositions which they bflns
forward for such negotliations an
which have for their object a guaran

War Loan Meeting a
Call to All British
~ (By International News Service.)
| LONDON, Jan, 11,—A trumpet call
to the Dritish nation was sounded to
day at the “war loan” mass meeting
in Guild Hall. The meeting was call
ed to arouse national interest in the
new war loan, the terms of which
will be made public tomorrow. A call
was made for universal subscriptions
and every Briton was asked to give
what he could In order that the war
might be presecuted more vigorously
than ever.
Inspiring speeches were made, and
the speakers made it plain that Eng
land will need all the money she can
raise,
Among those who took part in the
meeting were Premier Lloyd-George,
A. Bonar Law, the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, and Mr. Asquith, the for
mer Premier,
War Turning Point
}.y International News Service.)
AONDON, Jan. 11.-The Allled
Council of War in Rome is called the
“turning point” by the London Times
today. In an editorial commenting
upon the conference, The Times says:
“The conference just concluded in
Rome may well prove one of the turn
m' rflnn in the war. More than one
vifal decision was reached. The road
to victory, though it may be long, s
now running straight to the appoint
ed end,
“The British delegates regard the
conference as the most satisfactory of
the series of allled war councils. It
marked an advance in converting the
theory of & common front into =
reality.”
Vienna Is Indignant
Over the Expulsion
(By International News Service.)
VIENNA, Jan. 111.-Indignation was
expressed here today over the axpul
sion of Prelate Knight von Gerlach, a
private chamberiain to Pope Henedict,
from Italy. Mgr. Gerlach is an Aus
trian by birth, and his name was men.
tioned In connection with an Iltallan
plot which resulted in the destruction
of two [tallan battieships. Mgr. Ger.
lach went to Lugano, Switserland,
from Rome, but it is understood he
is coming to Vieana,
A dispatch from Rome stated that
more than 40 persons had been ar.
rested tndeonm-cu:: ':el: the conapir.
Ary o destro ttieships. Among
the prisoners, I'c was stated, waas .g;
nor Ambrogettl, who claimed teo
financial agent of Mgr, Gerlach,
tee of the existence, honor and Irben.yl
of evolution for their nations, are
according to their firm belief an ap
propriate basls for the establishment
of lasting peacs.” |
This sentence, futhermore, merely
is a formal expression of a desire,
aim, purpose and intention which
have been expressed on innumerable
occasions by the heads of the Ger
man Government, and this is in full
accord with the united spirit of the
German people.
There is no disposition here to posf
pone the problem of establishing
guarantees for the world's peade. |
Perhaps it does present itself as a
practical problem whether any sub
stantial basis for forming a league
of nations is likely to be touudaie
fore passionate animosity of the
present conflict in some measure has
passed away. I find an open mind
on this subject among all high Ger
man officials.
From the standpoint of the Cen
tral Powers, the establishment of
conditions insuring permanent peace
in KBurope is inevitably bound up
with the termination of the present
wWar.
Advices from Holland gtate that the
curiosity there with regard to wheth
er the Netherlands will have a seat
at the peace conference is being con
nected with the attitude of Holland
toward President Wilson’s note.
The reply of the Dutch Foreign
Becretary to the query of Deputy Van
Best, why the Netsverlendl d!d not
support President flson’s note as
had Switzerland, is being interpreted
as indicating that Holland through
hasty action, might risk losing the
selection of The Hague for the peace
gathering.
On the other hand, if The Hague
were chosen, the Netherlands un
doubtedly would have a volce in the
proceedings, which is desirable In
view of problems such as the control
of the mouth of the Scheldt and Bel
glan situation.
