LATEST MARVIN THEORY
Is That Boy Was Accidentally Killed
and the Body Concealed.

Dover, Del. April ga new move
has been made in the Marvin case,
based upon the theory of Detective
Lore Of New Jersey as to the disap-
pearance Of the boy. Acting upon De-
tectiVe LOrC'S information, Justice
Wood has issued a warrant for the ar
rest of steamboat deckhand employed
on the steamer John p. Wilson, run
ming between Lebanon, Del, and Phil
a1clphia The boat will leave Philadel-
phia tonight and the plan is To arrest
the man when the boat enters Della
ware waters.
The deckhand was one of the men
working at the Marvin farm, helping in
the transfer of the household goods the
day Horace Marvin disappeared. De
tcctive Iore's theory is that the little
boy, while climbing about the wagon
fell off and was killed and that the
men. fearing they would be blamed,
hastily concealed the body and later
made way with it.

CROKER AND THE
IRISH NATIONALISTS

London, June 3.--The newspapers are
rcviving the report that Richard Croker
cherishes an ambition TO enter the British
parliament as an Irish Nationalist mem
ber. Recently Mr.. Croker has taken an
interest In the work OF Nationalists,
made contributions to the party funds,
small though they were, judged by
American standards, lent automobiles for
electioneering purposes and identified
himself with the party by appearing on
the platform at the recent convention in
Dublin.
II is doubtful, however, that Mr.. Croker
would be willing to forswear his Ameri-
can citizenship. and more doubtful IL he
could find constituency desiring TO take
him up az candidate, or IL the party
headers would welcome the acquisition OF
q politician OF such a masterful nature.
A member OF the Irish Natsonalfsts re-
marked that the party would not well
come any attempt TO introduce American
s'machine" methods into its politics.
Mr. Croker's health, moreover, Is a
Barrier TO his re-embarldng in active
work OF any. sort. Mr.. Croker shows the
weight OF his GA years. although he Is still
vigorous. His recent Illness was more
severe than published reports indicated.
The doctors pronounced II Brght's dis
ease and at once almost gave up hope
Tor his recovery. but they finally called
him cured. though they warned him that
he must take greater care OF himself In
the future.
