Practically Nothing But
Revolver

Relatives and friends of Eugene Moore
Sliney, twenty-five years old who Is re-
ported to have disappeared from his home
142S Clifton street, the 18th of last month
are anxious that the police exert every
effort to find him. Miss Rosa Sliney, sis
ter of the missing man. saw Detective
Barbee and explained her brothers disap-
pearance.
The only thing he took away from his
room. she stated, was his revolver. and
that alarmed me. He left his money and
all his other effects in the ROOM.
Eugene Slney was a craftsman. His
office was in room IT, Baltic building, and
he did work FOR several of the more prom
inent patent attorneys in this city. Shortly
before he disappeared, the police were
told, he seemed Respondent because bust
ness was not brisk. He left his home the
afternoon of February II, and when he
did not return that night his room was
visited and it was found that he had
taken practically nothing but his revolver.
a message was sent to the several sta
tons last night giving description of the
young ma and directing that hospitals,
woods, pools and other places in the sub
urbs be searched for him.

lance from the mill. After making a short
circle he set sail for patch of big pines
nearby. Eleven minutes later the dogs
were turned loose and they lost no time in
picking up the trail and packing in fine
style. A splendid chase followed and for
nearly three hours the fox was kept fully
extended in an effort 10 keep at a safe
distance from his noisy pursuers The
pace finally became SO hot for him that
he decided. to run in and selected Il
blind ditch.
When the huntsmen arrived at the
scene a short conference was held and
IL was decided to dig the fox out and
save him for another chase This was
done. but IL was later determined to al
low the animal to go to his den, that be-
ing thought the better way to give him
a chance to recuperate, SO as 10 be in
shape for another run.
During the chase q member of the
Chevy Chase Club had a had SPILL and at
first 1t was thought he was badly hurt
II was found later, however his injuries
consisted of nothing more serious than

where the mud was several inches deep.

The directors of the company held a
meeting today. and its general counsel
was in consultation with President kru-
ger. but nothing was given out as to
whether the company would answer the
carmen. The strikers requested an an

There was a rumor in circulation that
the company may make a reply to the
men that it is willing to ask the courts
If they can act under the law of 1893,
provided the men, and not the unions
agents. join them In such request. This
could not be confirmed.
Labor men say the acquiescence of the
company in the proposed arbitration
would mean the calling off of the general
strike and the return of the striking troll

Third. by desire for an immediate
and permanent restoration of normal
business conditions, which seem to be in
danger of being further disturbed bv
reason of the differences existing be-
tween us"
Although President Kruger stated to
committee of business men that the com
