often been referred to as "high roller, "

has vanished sG75, 600 worth of gilt

securities belonging to the undivided
estate of his late father, and Of which he

remain Of the splendid fortune Of $500,
600. The fact that the 1925, 600 of Sc

clared to have been the only reason why
they we're left in the Merchants Trust
and Deposit Company vault.
Tucker is now supposed to be in Cen
trail America, having disappeared early
in July Just before a suit for breach Of
promise and damages was entered against
him. He is alleged to have gone away

hand man, also dropped out of sight.
Mrs. Lillian May Hackner, pretty
young blonde, has not been seen since
Tucker and Griffith left, and she is said
10 be with them. The trio are now said
to be in the Southern States, probably
in New Orleans. Tucker was last heard
from at Atlanta Ca, about, two weeks
ayo, at which time he told friend that
ne was going to Louisiana, and would
robably continue on to Texas or
Mexico. The disappearance of Tucker
and Griffith followed closely on the heels
of the suit for divorce brought by Mrs.
Hacker against her husband, George B..
Hacker, jewelry salesman. The decree
was granted to Mrs. Hacker March Sd
by Judge Dobler.

THESuperintendent of Registry of the

THE RESULT Of the convention in
Pittsburg on Monday Of the sheet mill
lodges of the Amalgamated Association
Of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers will
probably bring about decision that the
men work turns of six hours each in
stead of eight as at present. The ten
deucy of some men is to abolish hours
of labor altogether aud to devote the
twenty-four hours of the day to pleas
ure and sleep, all of which is in direct
conflict with the Biblical injunction that
man should earn his bread by the
sweat of his face.

ONE RESULT OF thepresent agitation OF
Indian Territory matters may be the dis
continuance of the Dawes Commission.
1t was with considerable reluctance that
the last Congress renewed the aPpropria-
ton for this commission. With the
death of ex-senator Dawes, the latter
part of whose life was given to the al
fairs of Indian Territory, it was believed
that the work would be turned over to
special agents of the Interior Depart
ment. Should it be proven, as appear
ances indicate it will be, that the present
members of the commission have not
conducted themselves with due cOnsidera-
ton this will serve as a strong argument
for making no further appropriations.

THE REACTION was strongly in
timated yesterday by a high official Of
the State Department that the European
squadron would be Withdrawn from
Turkish waters Immediately. upon its
arrival at Beirut. No need for the
presence there Of the squadron can be
seen by government officials, and, in
fact, it is appreciated that its retention
would appear like a menace to friendly
power with which the United States has
no quarrel. Many officials Of the State
Department are now openly saying that
had the advice of their department been
taken the feet would never have left
Villefranche for Tu kish waters. Atthe
Navy Department the officials refused tn
discuss the situation beyond making the
simple statement that the orders were IS
sued by a higher authority than anyone
connected with the department, and that
they are not responsible for the mistake,
if any has been made. There is some
disposition on the part Of the State De-
partment officials to criticise United
states Consul G. 4. Rayndal, at Beirut,
for sending by cable the message TO Min
lister Leishman stating that Vice-Consul
Magelssen had been fired at instead Of
using the ordinary mail facilities. No
reason can be seen why the cipher Ca
bles should have been used in such a
case.

KILLED PARTNER AND HIMSELF
St. Agnes Hospital, Baltimore, was the
scene Of a double tragedy Yesterday af-
ternoon. Aloysius I. Cayanaugh, aged
% years, well-to-do contractor o..
Washington, shot and instantly killed
Michael Francis Quincy, also Of Wash
ington, his business partner, and 10
another instant sent q bullet crashing
into his own brain. The men were
alone at the time of the tragedy. Cava-
naugh was "a young, though we'll
known. contractor OF the capital city.
His most intimate friend and partner
was the murdered Quincy, and Caya-
naugh boarded during the winter
months at the home Of the latter,
Quincy having a wife and two little
daughters. On Monday last Cavanaugh
entered St. Agnes Hospital as a private
patient for a nervous trouble. His lib
erty had not been restricted IN any
sense. Quincy was on visit to his
partner when the latter shot him. There
was so far as could be learned absolutely
no cause for the deed There we're Ger
tain physiological indications which
pointed to temporary insanity on the
part of Cavanaugh, and this IS the con-
clusion of the physicians and the coro-
