graph lines has been unable to get any re.
ply. l.nless a telegram sent with "a req Iuest
that il be forwarded il possible by pony

not expect to hear from his daughter soon.
Mr.. Fellows said the whole tone OF the re.
ported interview and its statements were
contradictrd by his knowledge of his daugh
ter's character and the TACT thnt the va
rious reports were Inconsistent with each
