the face and shoulders, the body of
l. s. Vogel, a wealthy dealer in Jew

Vogel had made desperate fight for

scattered over the floor, but gems of
considerable value and a sum of mon
ey he is thought 70 have had in his
pocket are missing.
The police believe that Nogel WIS
enticed into the basement. last night,
by thieves who knew that he had pur-
ehased~a quantity of jewelry recently
and Intended to take 1t to Trenton,
today. VogePs head was resting on the
ash pan of the furnace, and it's posi-
ton gave rise to the theory that the
thieves mad tried to burn the body.
The yalueof the jewelry which Nogel
is known to have had with him, last
night. is placed by the police at s10,-
000. None Of this, with the exception
of one or TWO articles of little value
has been found.
The coroner's opinion that the
thieves attempted to burn the body in
the furnace and We're frustrated be-
cause the door was too small is also
supported by the discovery of n large
bloodstain on the floor. traces of which

A CREEK CHURCH
FOR TRI-CIT|ES
MASS MEETING PLANNED WITH
PURPOSE OF RAISING
FUNDS.

Davenport, Aug. 31.-The Greeks OF
the tri-cities will hold mass meet.
ing in the near future for the purpose
Of talking over plans for the new
church which they intend to build and
to devise some means of raising the
necessary funds. The date for the ses-
sion has not vet been fixed, but Is to
be announced in a circular letter that
is to be sent out among the members
Of the clan.
One of the prominent Greeks of
Davenport stated this afternoon that
the new church would probably be
built in Moline. There are at present
some 1900 Greeks in the tri-cities, and
of this number at least 1000 are har-
bored in Moline and East Moline, the
remainder residing in Davenport and
Rock Island. Moline is accordingly
favored as the most central location.
Rev. Sonfronios of Athens, who is
now located here permanently has
taken up his residence in Moline. He
celebrated services in Moline In honor
of a feast of the Virgin Mary, and
they were largely attended. Most of
the business houses conducted by the
Greeks were closed during part of the
day. Family celebrations were held in
many of the homes but there was no
general festal gathering such as the
Greeks held in Chicago. ,
