NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-Distrlct Al
torney Whitman and John d Rookie
feller, Jr., foreman of the grand jury
that is investigating the alleged
"white. slave syndicate" which oper-
ates from this city, received word this
evening from Congressman William $.
bennett that he will arrive here next
Tuesday and will 60 before the grand
Jury and tell what he knows about the
syndicate. AS he was on the com
mitee that investigated the traffic, the
New York congressman has much evil
dence which he thinks will aid the
Jury. Much of this was turned up'
by detectives who worked under his
direction and he will unfold 1t for the
jury's benefit, so that If they SO desire
they can call the men to give evidence
in person. So far the inquiry has been
disappointing. While q number OIL
individuals who trafficed in women
have been unearthed, not single
trace has been found of the syndl
cate about which SO much was print
ed during the late political campaign
From present Indications the worf OF
the jury will be fruitless, and if there
is an ORGANIZED syndicate with head
quarters in this city, it has covered
its tracks so we'll that no legal evi,
dence against it can be secured.

1t is Said That Mexico Will Ask Him
To Leave BY Request of
United States.

MEXICO CITY, Mex, Jan. lot
is reported in official circles here to-
night that Jose Santos Zelaya will
be requested to leave Mexico. 1t is
rumored persistently that the United
States has intimated to the Mexican
government that it objects to Eel
aya's presence here. The objection
is thought to be based on the belief
that Zelaya is organizing a conspir-
acy against his enemies in Nicaragua
and that with the large number of
Central Americans here the carry
ing on of the scheme can be easily
accomplished
So strongly has the representation
been made that it is expected Mexico
will yield and Zelaya will be requested
to leave the country. If he does it is
considered certain he will go to Bel
gium.

fered in evidence following the Arrest
here today of Mrs. Elizabeth Smith,
the negress whose name was me1-
toned by Ray Lamphere in his con-
fession to DR.. e. I. Schell, president

ecutor Smith put the negress, who
Lamphere declares, accompanied him
to the Guinness murder farm" on the
night of the tragedy, through a severe
cross-examination tonight, but was un-
able to get any discriminating evi-
dence save the statement that Lam
phere spent the greater part of the
night on which the tragedy occurred
at her home. Immediately following
her questioning by Prosecutor Smith.
she was ordered held by Judge Rich
ter who said tonight that Lamphere's
confession had been confirmed.
Mrs. Smith, according to Judge
Richter will be brought before the
grand jury Monday morning Until
this evening the judge refused to al
low her release, but later agreed to
free her on bonds.
The confession of Lamphere, as CIV
en- out by DR.. Schell. is generally ac-
cepted as true by the people of la
a Porte tonight. Earlier in the evttAe
ing rowdies who had gathered in the
saloons, threatened violence to Mrs.
| Smith. IF she showed her face on
q JShe. street
Mrs. Smith owns number OF small
cottages here and a number of extra
deputies have been sworn in to watch
her property during the night, for fear
an effort will be made to burn down
i her home and incinerate her.
J The grand jury is now in session
here and Prosecutor Smith SAID he
would question Mrs. Smith again to-
morrow and an Indictment would be
asked at once if the Allegations made
against her by Lamphere proved to be
near the truth.

Conservative Made a Gain Which
Failed to Meet Expectations and
the Liberals Still Have
Majority.
LLoYD-GEoRGE BUDGET
VIII be introduced Again With More
Sweeping Reform Measures
Than Were in 1t
Before.

[Gate City Leased Wire seryic

lGate City Leased Wire Serylce.I
LONDON, Jan. 15.-Today's cleo
tions in London and provincial constit-
uencies indicate liberal majority in
the next parliament of anywhere from
100 to $50. In these sixty-six constit-
uencies, the liberals lost thirteen
seats and the laborites, their allies,
lost two, making net gain for the
conservatives of fifteen
This gain failed to meet the con-
servatives and anti-election predic-
tions and they still talk hopefully of
ultimate victory as a result of re-
naming elections. A liberal majority
in the next parliament is conceded
by all except the rabid partisans. To-
days balloting resulted in thirty-six
liberal victories, thirty-two conserva-
tive victories and six laborites, which,
added to the results obtained by un-
opposed elections yesterday and to-
day, make the total to date as follows:
Liberals. 81; conservatives, AZ; labor
ties, 6; Irish nationalists, G.; non-par-
tisan (the speaker), /. Combined the
liberals and laborites have now a total
of forty-four seats. The Irish nation
alists may also be added to this total.
They are nominally allied with the
others, but the union is not SO strong
as that between the liberals and the
/ laborites.
With the expected majority Of 100
the liberal leaders tonight declared
/ that they will put through all their
| projected reforms. The first things
will be the introduction of the Lloyd
George, budget, the rejection of which
| by the house of lords precipitated The
present election The new budget viii
be an even more sweeping reform
I than the one rejected.

coming British parliaments in dis
/ tricts so far determined:
