BLOODHOUNDS ON TRAIL
OF SUSPECTED SLAYERS
Alleged Murderer Is Believed to Have
Committed Crime Through
Motive of Robbery

KANSAS CITY, Oct 21. = Blood
hounds, fresh on the trail of man
suspected of the murder of Alonzo Van
Royen, his wife and sister-in-law,
Miss Rosa Mcmahon, five miles west Of
Kansas City, Kas., are rapidly ap-
preaching this city today.
This, the police believe, affirms the
theory the murderer came here after
committing the crime.
While the dogs are hunting today,
scores of farmers are searching the
country surrounding the Van Royen
farm for suspects.
The police are convinced the motive
of the murderer was robbery. The theft
of $500 from a trunk in the house and
a diamond ring from the jewels of Mrs.
Won Royen apparently confirms this.
Although the sheriff, aided by the
police of Kansas City, Kas., across the
line from here, had run down every
clew that might lead to the apprehen-
sion of the unknown murderer of
AIonzo van Royen, Margaret van
Royen, his wife, and Miss Rosa Nc
Mahon, a sister of Mrs. van Royen, who
were slain on their farm five miles west
of Kansas City yesterday, the slayer
was still at large this afternoon.

SAYS HISTORIANS DISTORT
FACTS ABOUT HAPPENINGS
Professor In Chicago Declares Wrong
Impressions Are Given to Peo-
pie by Writers

CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-Prof. w. 1.
Thomas of the University Of Chicago
aired a long-felt grievance yesterday
against poets and historians for dis
torting facts of history.
Historians as a class have shown
disposition to hand down erroneous
impressions to the people, and efforts
of scholars to correct the false state
ments have proven unavailing,' said
Prof. Thomas in a lecture at the uni
Versity.
"The statement credited to Charles
C. Pinckney in the revolutionary days,
Millions for defense, but not a cent
for tribute never was spoken by him.
Mr.. Pinckney was once asked in pri-
vate how much the United States
would pay for political purposes and
he replied: not a siX-pence.
"Poets writing of historical Subjects
have shown a woeful disregard of de-
tails" he said. "Take The Burial of
Sir John Moore. There the author
speaks of the services being held at
night, when we know they were at
8 o'clock in the morning"

BEAUTIFUL PARADE
Greatest Pageant In History OF Re-

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 21.-San Fran
cisco and all of her guests went carnival
mad today and crowds still surged up
and down the streets after the decora-
tive iIIuminations were extinguished to-
night.
Never before has this city entertained
such huge crowd as gathered to see
the big civic and industrial parade, the
leading feature of the day.
Long before the hour set for the form
ing of the parade the ferry officials an
nounced that the boats could not han
die the crowds that were seeking en-
trance into San Francisco from the
transbay cities.
Over 10000 people marched for three
hours in the big morning parade, and 1t
was late in the afternoon before the last
of the floats disappeared from the
streets.

sand Candle Power

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-If the efforts
of business houses and residents along
Fifth avenue are successful, that
street is destined to become the most
brilliantly illuminated thoroughfare in
the world.
An organization has been formed

Each of these lamps will be of 10000

By this means the hotels and busi-
ness men expect to attract thousands
of persons who devote their time to

Judge Advocate of Department of Mis-

Methods with Recruits

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21-An evident
desire is apparent in some portions
of the army for policy of more len
