GIRL $ DEATH IS
 DEEP MYSTERY

Asheville, N. C.. September 10.-The mystery of the sudden disappearance last Thursday of Miss Myrtle Hawkins of Hendersonville, N, C., aged 17, and re- markedly pretty, was apparently deepest this morning. when her dead body was found floating in the waters of Lake Oce- ola, three miles. from Hsndersonvilie The discovery was made by three small boys who were fishing in the lake. Deep bruises on the head and face indicated foul play, evidence of which, however, did not rnaterialize at the coroner's inquiry this afternoon, when a verdict of death by means unknown was rendered.
 Miss Hawkins, daughter of w. H. Flaw kins, a jsweler of Hendersonville, left her home last Thursday to do some shbp- ping. She never returned, and no trace of her was obtained until today. when the body was found. 1t Is stated that certain evidence indicates that the girl was dead before her body had reached the lake, Reports from Hendersonville tonight are to the effect that later developments may prove, the death of the young girl to be one of the most sensational tragedies in ,,the history of the state. s+.

TAFT IS WRONG
 ABOUT DIVORCE Richberg Asserts That Uni form Divorce Law AL
 ready Exists

Chicago, September 1o.-John Rich- berg. president of the Illinois commits sion on uniform state laws, declared today that President Taft is seriously mistaken on the subject of uniform di- voroe MT. Richberg's statement was brought out by the announcement that Mir Taft will discuss the divorce ques- ton freely while on a 13.00o mile tour. beginning next Friday, and will urge the necessity of a uniform law.
 In more than 90 per cent of ths states of the union, according to MT. Richberg, there Is already uniformity of legislation on the "crux of the di- vorce" question-namely, causes for di- vorce.
 what the President Is mistaken about" said MT. Richberg in an inter view, "is that he evidently is not aware of the uniform divorce law prepared and adopted by Congress on divorce and composed by delegates of the re- spective states who were appointed for that special purpose in 1908, and who formulated uniform divorce code which subsequently was adopted by the conference of commissioners on uni- form state laws. These com mmissioners are officially appointed from all the states and territories in the United States except Nevada. This divorce code contains all the features to which the President has. made reference and has a provision that no divorce shall be absolute until a year after entering the degree, thus absolutely prohibit ing marriage within that period in any state. The code has also most excel lent features against what are known as migratory divorces. as 1t requires . residence of two years before proceed ings can be instituted.
 .'Regarding the crux of the divorce question:" he said. namely. causes for divorce. the code names six and they were then and are now legally in force In more than 90 per cent of the states of the union--adultery. bigamy. felony, cruelty assertion and drunkenness. The President will undoubtedly be do- ing a good work by calling public at tention to the necessity of the differ ent states adopting the uniform divorce code as a whole Action already has been taken by New Jersey. Delaware and wisconsin. trust that the Pres- dent will especially see that the code is adopted in the District of Columbia. This would have a most salutary effect and influence in the states. and bring about what the President advocates particularly as such law would be enacted by the national house and sen ate representing as nearly as possible the average sentiment of the wholt American people"

 MEANS A STRIKE Kruttschnitt Faces An Ulti-
 matum DECISION IS REACHED General Advisory Committee of Fed eration of Unions of Hartman Employees Declare Company Must Recede

: San Francisco, September lo-Unless Julius Kruttschnitt, vice president and d. rector of maintenarce Of the Hartman lines, recedes from his absolute refusal to recognize the federation of shop work CTS or the committee on those lines, he will be confronted with strike. No req son for believing his company will re- cede has been found by labor leaders here.
 General advisory committees of the five shop craft unions comprised in the federation concluded here today a three days conference with the inter- national officers of those unions.
 The general officers were entrusted with full charge of the situation hence worth ,and International President J. W. Kline of the blacksmiths said the general officers had made up their minds what they would do. MT. Kruttschnitt," said MT. Kline tonight, must make conces- sions. The public must be recognized In their demands"
 will the general officers ask for an- other conference with Mir. Kruttschnitt?' was asked.
 That is not in our present plans,'' he replied.
 We may find some way of approach ing the subject again, but none has oc- cured to us so far,' he continued.
 Recognition of federated unions in- wolves no principles not included in rec ognition of individual unions already con ceded by the Hartman lines, and nc principles not already utilized in tho Har- riman system itself. It Is our right, and we shall insist upon It. he concluded Asked about the statutes in restraint oi trade and if 1t would be invoked against officials of the unions, he said
 When we took office we assumed all responsibilities of the officials. If these include going to jail we will go to jail
 Fair warning MT. Kline said, would be given to the aHrrfman officials In case a strike is called. MT. Kline left for Lof Angeles tonight. From there he goes tc Salt Lake city and Chicago. Other in ternatonal officers will cover the south ern routes of the Southern Pacific rail road meeting.

ATTACK IS EXPECTED SOON Force Df Portuguese Invad- CTS Slowly Marching
 Forward

Lisbon, September 10.-With a desire to know tht exact strength of the royalists the government recently sent Luz D'Al- meda, commander in chief of. the carbi- neers, a secret political society, to the frontier to make an investigation. A report from this official has just been received He says the royalists now con certrated In the neighborhood of Orenz are advancing slowly. They number be- tween 40OO and 5000 comprising infantry, cavalry and artillery.
 They have about 39 pieces of artillery and for the most part quick frers. They have two aeroplanes, which are continual ly flying over camp, and the troops and the inhabitants are in constant fear that they may drop bombs.
 The delay In the attack Is due to the monarchists lack of funds. says the chief. but they expect from Brazil and England within a few days $2, 2,5O0,000 D'Almeida is of the opinion that unless something extraordinary happens the monarchist in- vasion will take place within week.
 The monarchists count on part of the republican troops coming over to them as soon as hostilities are opened, but ac- cording to best reports obtainable this seems to be mistake. The whole 22,00t TeI uDllCdn lIOOpS ithliiS thC iioieiVi "i ' apparently loyal and intend to kill with out quarter to avoid a civil war between the north and the south.

 The whole country is awaiting results with anxious expectancy. A serious con- spiracy was discovered in the state prison In the last few days the sentries have not allowed visitors to the 800 royalsts incarcerated in this prison because they invariably carried packages. Yesterday Il was discovered the royalist prisoners. the chief of whom is a priest, Figueriedo were armed with revolvers, The monarch ists in the north entered Portugal in pre- ceding revolutions.
