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 llel.’l. charged with consplracy, con tained the names of boys in Califor nia, particularly in Long Beach, Hot Springs, N.

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 York City detective headquarters to Chief of Detectives Mackrell formerly started the hunt here.

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 ATHENS, Jan. 11.—-The people of the Eighth Congressional District are today voting for Congressman to suceeed the late 8, J.

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. | ‘"‘"‘"IFOJRVSYT |\|, Evenng _2:30 | kziTH vauDRVILLE | 8130 cH A.l': l‘! :’3’:‘: R : '?:fi! :zi%acu":?
