ARREST ExPECTED SOON.
Boston Police op Trail of Murderer of
 Nflea (seary.


 Boston. Oct. 30.--With the State and city police making every effort to lo- cate the person who Is believed to have caused the death of Susan Geary, the victim of the dress suit mystery, it is thought tonight that the case is entered upon It's last stage and an arrest will result soon.
 Morris Nathan lover of the girl. a mernter of the shepherd King" Theat- ricql Company, who Is under arrest In Pittsburg, on the charge of murder has furnished valuable information re- Earding the case and the police now have tangible facts on which to pursue their investigation.
 TVh.le the Boston police tonight re- fussd to divuIge the latest develop ments of the mystery. it Is known that they are in possession of the name of the physician who performed the op- eration which caused the death of Miss Geary, or Ethel Durreii as she was known by members of the shepherd K KAag" Company, to which she belonged. and 1t is believed that this physician will sotn be located by the officers.
 Tonight Miss Evelyn Geary and Mrs. Geary, sister and mother of the dead girl, were summoned to the office of Superintendent of Police William H. Pierce for an extended conference, and gave the authorities additional .nfor- nation regarding the circumstances im- mediately preceding Susan Geary's dis appearance.
 Acting under information eiicited from Morris Nathan by the Pittsburg police, Boston detectives today search ed the Aremont Street ofice of a wo- man physician who has advertised ex- tensively in the newspapers. The pro- prietress of the establishment was not present, and one of her assistants, whom the police are particularly de- sirous of locating, was also absent
 The effects Of the office were care- fully scrutinixed by the officers, but it is understood that nothing of an incrim- mating nature was found.
 Although Nathan's attorney in Pitts burg Is reported to have declared ern- phatically that his client would resist all attempts at ,extradition, the prison CTS brother today stated that he was sure Nathan would gladly return to Massachusetts to clear himself of the charge that is hanging over him.
 Two officers left for Pittsburg today to bring Nathan back to this city.

Police Believe Expert Dis
 membered Girl.
SEARCH MADE IN BOSTON
Shepherd King" Treasurer Admits Intimacy With Her.
Declares, However, That He Did Nse Know That She was in Deli- cate Coaditon--on verge
 Of CoIIspse.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct 30.---It is the firm conviction of everyone who in the touch with the case that. while q charge of murder has been lodged against Morris Nathan. secretary to tho manager of the Shepard King" Com pany in connection with the Winthrop suit case mystery, he is not the prin- cipaI in the affair and is held because it Is belived he can throw moro light upon the crime than any one else.
 That the police have complete story from Nathan telling all he knows and suspects is not denied. but aside from a statements that have leaked out concerning the examination, the authorities refuse to disclose the in- formation obtained until after the arr rival of the Boston officers tomorrow morning.
 will be required to return to Boston Is also postponed pending their arr rival.
 Admissions of Nathan.
 It is known that Nathan admitted to. Superintendent of Detectives Thomas A. McQuaide and Superintendent Of Police Alexander Wallace that he was intimate with Miss Geary and in hts statement he implicated a woman, who he says conducted maternity home in Fremont street, Boston
 The Boston police were immediately notified by McQuaide and they start cd out in search of the woman. When they have arrested the woman. who conducted the place Miss Geary went for treatment. which may be tonight. the police believe the case will be clear and the blame fixed and the guilty party brought to trial.
 Nathan stated to the police officials that he was not aware of tho girls condition. He declared that they werA kan la H. mosN N.m.am -a & conversation between Miss Geary and two girls who were appearing at the Parks at Hartford. in which one the girls advised Miss ueary to go to the Fremont street house for treat- ment Nathan said he was not respctl. sible for Miss Geary going to a hos- pitaI.
 That the crime was done lbsy ss ...o- man is the belief Of the police offi- ciais No hardened criminal, as they say. would have disposed of the body by cutting it tip and packing it in R suit case and then allowing the same to float.
 Furthermore. the leaving of the rings on the fingers is an indication that the crime was committed by person unaccustomed to crime
 The authorities appear to believe that Nathan was unaware of the niur- der of the girl and that he had no part In that crime, but they seem to think he is responsible for her res ceiving treatment
 Nathan is on the verge of collapse. He has done his part toward clearing up the mystery and Is being shown every consideration by the police. Ma than's story of having last seen the girl at the subway station at Boylston and Fremont streets. Boston. on the night of September g, is borne out by aaVara1 rnAu1hara of fha rorunauV
 He had been constantly with the com- pany and returned to Boston twice and made a visit to Providence, R. l., in search of the girl.

The People Tell Them They Are No
 Longer Needed.

Longer Needed.
 St. Petersburg, Oct. 31.-(3:15 a. m.) Celebration of the issuance of the Imperial manifesto still continue at 3 o'clock this morning in many streets of the city. where crowds are singing the national hymn, cheering for the Emperor and shouting themselves hoarse. The restaurants and cafes were closed at o'clock. disgorging 6 their crowds which had been drinking and making merry for hours around the tables to augment the demonstra- tion in the thoroughfares.
 The Cossacks were utterly discom- fitted and confounded and were who'll ly at loss to understand the meaning of the demonstration or why the crowds were singing, Sod Save The Emperor" the national anthem instead of the "Marseillaz."
 The people disposed the usual good feelings to the Cossacks. They sur rounded their horses and patted their perplexed riders on the boots. shout ing. You can go home now. We no longer need you. We have liberty
 Then they bade the Cossacks to raise their caps in honor of the constftu- tion. After ? o'clock the Cossacks were called in from the streets which were left in charge of the ordinary po- lice and night watch.
 Shortly after midnight great crowd gathered in the great square before the winter palace and sang a chant from the church liturgy addressed to the Emperor and the national anthem and finished with rousing cheers for his majesty and the imperial family. Thec they marched to the barracks of the PreobraJensky Guards and demanded the regimental band lead the process sion.
 Disappointed there, they continued to the barracks of the Pavlivsk Guards on the same errand. but the soldiers, misunderstanding the purport of the demonstration, threw open the gates of the court and threatened to fire un- less the crowd made off at once, when the nanifestants fled in terror.
 Tn the Nevsky Prospect there was some rough play but the boisterous ones formed an inconsiderable portion of the crowds. There were no illumi- nations or other formal demonstra- tions. the population of the capital hav- ing lived too long under a regime un- der which all initiative for outward festivity came from the police.

 Some persons and the gofN nment be- lieve 1t will be necessary to use ball cartridges to suppress the present con flict, but Count Witte remains confi- dent He has become the bridge where by, the people are to cross to constitu- tionalism.
 The Count has already tentatively se- lected the members of the cabinet. He will himself hold no portfolio. All the present ministers, except those of war. navy, and foreign affairs. will be re- tired. Prince Alexis Obolensky, one of the Counts former assistanst in the ministry of finance, will become min- ister of the interior; Romanoff, an- other assistant to the minister. will take the financial portofolia; M. Koni. at present Russias apiest jurist. will be min:sees of justice: M Krosoviky, president of the St. Petersburg munfc- ipali council, will take the ministry of education. and M. Ziegier won Schaf- fephausen, chief of the railroad de- partment. NUf the ministry of finence. will become minister of ways and com- munications.
 Late tonight after the news got abroad, the crowds began marching up and down the Nevsky Prospect sing ing the national hymn and hurrahing for liberty. It is significant that the great searchlight, which has been lighting up the Nevsky Prospect from the Admiralty Tower for three nights was turned of tonight.
 A ludicrious incident occurred at midnight at the university, when news boys with an extra edition of The Off, ficaI Messenger hurried into crowd of strikers. The instant the news be- came known, the crowd raised an up- roar and the Cossacks who were pa trolling misunderstanding the object of the demonstration and thinking the cries. were seditious charged and dispersed the workmen with their whips.
 At all the fashionable restaurants workmen drank in toast to Liberty and Constitution"

 The statement that note for s75,000 signed or endorsed by me is or at any time was in the Enterprise National Bank or was ever protested, is an ab- sollte malicious falsehood.
