POLICE AT STANDSTILL
 IN MILLMAN INVESTIGATION

Detroit. Mich. Sept 12.-The police investigation into the death of Miss May Belle Millman, of Ann Arbor. ap- peared to be at a standstIIl tonight. pr. George A. Fritch was released last night under $1O.O00 bail and the young woman detained at police headquarters as witnesses have been permitted to go.
 Dr. Walker and pr. Clark work ed several hours today on an examination of certain organs taken from the young woman's body but will not be ready to report before late tomorrow.
 That portion of the body from the knee to the waist. which was contain ed in the third and last sack found, was so badly decomposed that 1t Is saId to be very doubtful whether the expsrts will be able to determine whether the girl was in a delicate condition and whether a criminal op- aration was performed.
 The police have not dropped their cas. ugainst pr. Fritch, but do not feel that with the present facts on hand ihev could secure conviction.

And as you have asked me again today, I reply Mo- I have not changed my enunciated position, and am actuated by the purest patriotism in resisting this honor. as 1t is known-rull well that my nomination would be the cause of trouble. which I would be the first to regret.

But the unusual happened today
when "Pete," a Scotch collie dog
owned by Mrs. Ross L. Rupert,

solitary cell for more than an
hour awaiting the arrival of his
owner.
"Pete" must have been barking
to the call of "Auld Scotia" when
George Rae, chief steward OF the
steamer Kumeric, passed to port
side on Pacific avenue last even
ing. The dog turned and fol-
lowed Mr.. Rae. He was with him
when he reached the ships boat
and het promptly followed him on
board the craft.
The collie appeared at home
when he boarded the Kumeric
and he spent the night there.
This morning the captain saw him
and asked from whence he came.
Then followed explanations. The
chief steward made 1t clear that
he had no intention of adding
