uous welcome was given Roosevelt
when he arrived here today.
The burgomaster and American
Ambassador Bryan met the colonel
at the station Thousands Of per-
sons gathered at the depot to well
come the American visitor, and it
appeared, judging from their num-
bers. that they We're endeavaring to
outdo any welcome heretofore given
Roosevelt.
The enthusiasm of the vast
throngs. which many believe to out
number the crowds attending the
coronation of King Albert, reached
its climax when Roosevelt ap-
peared.
The colonel was notified by repre-
sentatives of King Albert that the
king would await him at the great
exposition hall this afternoon and
would formally welcome him at a
public reception.
Later the king and colonel rode
together to King Albert's country

The Elliott girl is friendly to the

that the Elliott girl see no one, un-
less the party coming has a letter
from Chief of Police sullivan.
The connection of a member OF
the late alleged Investigating com
mittee with an effort to secrete the
Elliott girl. the victim of two po-
licemen, is one of the extraordinary
phases of this case.
1t shows the close relationship be-
tween the police and their would
be investigators and drags the in
tercsted members of the committee
into the case as accessories after
the fact" as they sometimes say
in law.
The statement that a member Of
the late police investigating COM
mittee is connected with the secret
ing of the girl can be substant;ated
under oath, as coming from said
member this forenoon.

politics by contesting for the
seat in congress now occupied
by Congressman PoindeXter.
Mr. Braden is said to have de-

that he believes he can do just

OF searching the wrecked Herald build
