Additional evidence of a family quarrel over file search for Roberta de Janon, the $10,000,000 heiress who eloped with Frederick Cohen, a waiter, from Philadelphia, was furnished here Saturday. Ferdinand de Janon, the girl’s fa ther, declared Saturday that lie be lieved Robert Buist, the millionaire grandfather of the girl, has been in communication with her, and is hid ing her whereabouts from 6ther rela tives. De Janon lias been conducting the search here. Hu Ist has taken this strange step, de Janon charges, because he wants to hush np the ease by keeping Miss de Janon in seclusion until her esca pade has been forgotten by the pub lic. "1 approve of any efforts that may he made to keep the girl’s whereabouts from the public, hut when it comes to hiding facts from me, I think it is cruel and heartless," he said., "Since my girl disappeared 1 have done all in my power to find her. And now that another relative has found some trace of her, I am not told of it." I>e Janon made the statement Just SATOLLI DIED SATURDAY A. M.

In his earlier yours lie was an educa tor and tlie few 1 volumes which ho wrote won for him the praise of great schol ars. Ills learning was of the deepest and was of a character that made him thoroughly acquainted with the thought of the time. In 1893 he was appointed by Pope Leo XIII as flint apostolic delegate to the United States, with headquarters at Washington. He remained in tills posi tion until 18D7. The clorclnl work con nected with the administration of the Church In America had heretofore been in charge of the Propaganda, which lus superinlendance of all missionary coun tries.

On the heels of this great honor came tho appointment of SatolM as Apostolic Delegate to the Pnited States, and only a comparative ly short time after this came the news that SatolU was to bo made a Cardinal.

Atlee They left the Union League club in I’hiladcdphia just after midnight and went to the farm of Mr. Burpee. This farm is being guarded by several bull dogs. The bulldogs were not taken there until Thursday, the day Rober ta was reported to have been found by Buist. A friend of de Janon, who Is devot ing his entire time, to the case, de clared at Philadelphia Saturday that a woman has aided Roberta to carry out her plan to elope with Cohen. Mils country. As the result of controversies in which he became entangled while in America, he was credited, after his re turn to Rome, with using his influence to prevent the elevation of certain American prelates to the cardinalate; and though his influence under Pope Leo XIII there is still reason to believe that Ids demise may result in the appoint ment of another American Cardinal earlier than would have oe?n the case had lie lived.

NATIONAL ISSUE. That President Taft deemed the “In subordination” of Pinchot of sufficient importance to consult his cabinet adds to the significance of his act, for it is construed by many members of the house and senate to mean that the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy has now assumed the importance of a na tional issue. Many competent to judge, profess to see in the dramatic climax the shadow of Roosevelt and tho en tering wedge of a split in the admin istration forces in congress. With hardly an exception it is agreed on all sides that the could not have acted'Otherwise if administration discipline was to be preserved for it is admitted by Mr Pinchot’s friends that ho violated the executive order of No vember !’(?. 1900. which forbade sub ordinates from furnishing information to congressmen without consent of the head of the department. The presi dent. having had the experience of a federal judge, could not brook the viol ation of an order any more than he could have condoned a gross contempt of court. SAY PRESIDENT DELAYED TOO LONG. Tlit» only criticism hoard Saturday was that tho president delayed action too lon*. The opposition to the Pin- Ichot forest reserve policy say that af | ter the chief forester delivered his : New Year address, which cot Into the papers before its official release some days ago at New York, the president j would have been fully justified in ask- ] ing Pinchot’s resignation, and if it had been requested it would have been tendered without delay. The whole matter has now assumed an entirely different aspect, however. Congress has taken the initial steps for an investigation that promises to lay bare the Inside workings of the general land office and the forest ser vice and the methods of handling land patents. Witnesses, many of whom are employes in the land office and the forest service, may be influenced in their testimony by what has happened to Glavis, Pinchot, Price and Shaw. This is the comment heard at the cap ital Saturday. Friends of Secretary Ballinger say that employes Who may be called as witnesses have been as sured that they will be required to tell all they know and that no one will be disturbed in their positions be cause of testimony they may give be fore the investigating committee. A report was circulated Saturday that President Taft might veto the Joint resolution to Investigate Secre tary Ballinger and the forestry bu reau, but inquiry among the leaders In congress shows the report to be without foundation. The resolution to Investigate Mr. Ballinger was not con sidered by congress until after Mr. Ballinger had appealed to the presi dent and the latter had approved the suggestion. The matter has now gone so .far that the president could not stop it if he desired, as congress has full power to Investigate any depart ment. The situation, in short, is out of his hand, so far as he is individu ally concerned. The Investigation, from the present indication, will last seve ral months. MR. JOHN T. ROBERTS DIED AT SUMMIT SWAINSBORO, Ga —The announce ment here of the death of Mr. John T. Roberts of Summit, at an early hour Thursday morning, was received with general regret by his many friends in this city. Mr. Roberts has long been recog nized as one of the most successful and conservative business men in this county. lie came here from South Carolina about a quarter of a cen tury ago, a poor man, and by thrift, honesty and Industry accumulated property until he had become among the wealthiest men of the county. He was at the date of his death only fifty-five years of age. Up to a few months ago he was In splendid health since that time he has been under the care of a physician but no fears were entertained tliut he was near death's door until a very short while before Ills death. He has one brother In this county, Mr. Henry Roberts, also of Summit. He was married soon after moving to this county to Miss Ida Davis, who with six children survives him.

BLUEFIELDS.—Peace negotiations between the forces of General Estrada and President Madriz have been in definitely postponed as a result of the death of Gen. Fornos Diaz, the insur gent leader, who was drowned off the ' coast near Grey town while on his way to confer with the peace representa tives of Zelaya’s successor. There is now no prospect that a decisive battle at Acoyapa can be averted, with prob able heavy loss of life. The death of Gen Diaz, who was generally beloved, has cost the United States many more friends here. It is understood that appeal was made to the commander of an American war vessel to take him to Greytown, but the request was refused and he start ed out In a small boat that was swamped by heavy seas. Although Diaz was politically a bit ter enemy of President Madriz, the personal relations between the two j were close. General Diaz undertook the task of bringing about an agree- j merit between the opposing forces I against the advice of his friends, and his intercession was the last hope of j a peace pact being arranged. Gen. Diaz undertook to reach Man- j agua over the route by which one of | the two divisions of General Estrada’s . army is advancing on the capital—by the sea, the San Juan river from Greytown, and Lake Nicaragua. He was one of the foremost of the rebels, and probably the most power ful next to Estrada. He left a sick bed to take charge of the strategic work at Rama before the government defeat, and was largely responsible for the result of the battle. Bluefields was in mourning Satur day and services for the dead hero i were held In the military camps and the churches. MU.
