dence with ttv former teller and he
spent many days in Wilmington be-
fore he learned her address and then
kept tabs on her for nearly a week
before his vigil was rewarded. On
Tuesday night as he was standing in
an alley near the Woman's house.
he noticed her leave with a suit case
in her hands. He followed her to
the railroad station and then into
a train.
Confronting her with the inforna-
ton he had, he forced her to tel!
Lowery's address in the city. That
done, he took the woman back TO
Wilmington, leaving a guard to see
that she should not be able to COM
municate with Lowery.
Then he went to Philadelphia With
another detective. They stationed
themselves near a house on North
16Oth street, where the woman said
Lowery was living, and were on
guard about five hours, when the
man they wanted came out. Step
ping up to him, Kelleher told him
he was under arrest. Lowery was
stunned for a moment, but quickly
recovered.

WILL BE IN THE RACE.
An Emphatic Statement Made by

Joseph G. Cannon will not take
himself out of the race for the
Speakership, of the next House of

of the Republican caucus if the Re-
publicans control the next Congress,

could make him say he would not be
a candidate. In other words, he
said, he would not make am effort to
win the Speakership; yet the en-
phasis with which he spoke made 1t
plain that if the Republican caucus
should nominate him he would be
willing to serve.
