called DR.. Hart and he shouted from
the floor above.
Here L am. You will have to break
through another door"
Mrs Cortis threw her weight against
the bedroom door and broke it open.
The Klokow girl was lying on the bed
partially dressed, her hair disarranged
and much of it torn from her head,
and the room showed evidences of
desperate struggle. The girl was I'M
conscious and evidently dying, and
DIR. Hart informed Mrs. Cortis that
she had swallowed morphine pills
after he had given her some medicine.
DIR. Hart went into an adjoining room
and swallowed large quantity of
morphine.
The efforts of DR.. Hulsteron, physi-
clan who had been called to revive the
girl, We're unavailing and she died in
short time. DIR. Hart was given
some restoratives and Hulsteron la
bored on him for several hours before
being convinced that he would ulti-
mately recover. A detail of police Of
ficers was placed at DR.. Harris bed
side, and he was practically under ar
rest until late this afternoon, when
the coroner's inquiry over the body of
the Klokow girl was adjourned. DR..
Hart was then formally taken into
custody. The inquiry which brought
above was adjourned until next Tues
day, at which the coroner's physician
will present his report. The police,
however, declare that they will not
have the slightest difficulty in proving
by circumstantial evidence that DR..
Hart gave morphine to the girl and
is responsible for her death.
DIR. Hart has resided in Chicago but
a short time, and is the son of a mill
lionaire residing in st. Louis, who has
sent him regularly an allowance of
money, which has supported him and
his wife, as he had no practice in his
profession.

DIR. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chem

Europe of the production of good pro-

country, and in most cases they are
endeavoring TO the very best of their
ability to conform to the provisions
of the law.
1.-THE law and its regulations and en-
forcement have had a most salutary
effect upon trade relations. We are
getting in this country now better and
purer goods and the result will not be,
as was expected, diminution in the
volume of trade, but, on the contrary,
a large increase.
our consumers being sufficient,
purity and character of these products
will be more freely imported. Thus
commerce and trade between us and
foreign countries will be facilitated"

ENTENTE AIRED
BRITISH PRESS DISCUSSING
AGREEMENT
Gerald 5alfour Declares Great Britain
Has No Aggressive Intentions
and Would Consider Any
Proposals
BY Associated Press.

LONDON. Oct 6.-Following closely
upon the publication of the text of the
Anglo-Japan treaty has come consid-
cradle talk Of the possibility of an UNI
Outstanding between Great Britain and
Russia. All the newspapers are de-
voting columns to the discussion of
the question, pointing out that, If Rus
STA is sincere in her expression of
desire for peace in Central Asia, there
is no reason why the two ancient enc
mics should not come to an agreement.
that will not only assure peace, but
clear away the suspicious which have
existed for years.
That negotiations with this object
in view are pending seems possible,
though definite officiaS confirmation Is
lacking. Color is lent to the rumors
that have been afloar by the recent
frequent visits paid to the foreign Of
flee by the Russian ambassador since
his return from his holidays a fortnight
ago. and the fact that foreign secre-
tary Lansdowne, who returned from
his vacation to publish the text of the
Anglo-Japan treaty, has remained at
his office continually since then.
The position of the British govern
ment was clearly stated in a speech
delivered by Gerald Balfour, president
of the local government board, yes
tSlOdyt III WHICH, ne oetlOls NIlGctl ID IL
ain has no intention of making ag
gressive movements in Central Asia.
Our object is defense and not defiance,
and If the Russian government desires
to come to an understanding with us
with reference to our respective inter-
ests in that part of the world. it will
not find the British government back
ward in readiness to consider any pro-
posals which 1t might desire to put
forward"
Other Powers Invited to Subscribe
One of the suggestions which most
appeals to British officialdom and the
London press, is that Russia, Germany
and France would subscribe to the
terms of the Anglo-Japanese treaty. 1t
is pointed out that, IL they are sim
cere in their protestations of a desire
for peace in Asia, there is no reason
why they should not subscribe to a
treaty which has this object in view.
The suggestion that Great Britain
should more fully recognize Russia's
position in Southern Turkey has not
been given much consideration in Lon
don. though possibly this may be one
of the points on which the agreement
if reached will be based, and it may
be a return for Russian guarantees of
her often-repeated assertion that she
does not desire to advance any fur
Their towards the Indian frontier.
