CAIRO, June 5.--The hitherto peaceful
town Of Benha, in lower Egypt, has had
its serenity rudely disturbed these last
days by the discovery of a crime which
reveals a revolving audacity and cynical
brutality on the part OF the author or
authors. The chief police Inspector of
that town received a letter reading as
follows:
Dear Inspector-Ha! Ha, Ua, Let us
laugh heartily at the government, which
cannot catch me. Hum! Hum! Please
keep for me the trunk, for which en-
close the railway receipts, and which
contains the toilet articles for which you
asked. In the trunk you will also find
the woman. whom have loved since her
childhood, and whose estates in upper

Aristocratic Barter.

From what has been said it will be
seen that this agency for the exploita-
tion of blue blood and dollar duchcsses
differs vastly from the ordinary matri-
monial agencies of Paris. The latter
are numerous, sordid, and grasping. The
elderly lady who conducts them is mys-
tcrious. yet iuquisitive. She begins
modestly by asking her client TO buy
tickets for ball. Soon she needs a
small loan, and so on.
''I gave her two hundred francs on
the understanding that she would get
me presented to Mile. X.,'' said well
known count.
"And she could not get me beyond
the ianitor," he added regretfully.
And yet, strange TO say, such well
known men as the Marquis de Charette
and Baron Blanc-bcfore marriage
Count Arthur Tcherup Spiridovitch and
the Count de Morny-have run the
gantlet of many of these common
agencies,

The agency covers all France and

Reciprocity Meet
Is Formally Begun

Reciprocity conferences, looking to
better trade relations between Canada
and the United States, were formally
begun this morning, when President
Taft, Secretary of State Knox, and AS
sistant Secretary of State Chandler
Hale received Ambassador Bryce, Will
lam Patterson. the Canadian minister
of customs, and William Fielding, the
Canadian minister of finance, at the
White House
This afternoon, behind closed doors,
the real conference will begin at 3
o'clock in the State Department There
will be in attendance the Secretary of
State, Chandler p. Anderson, counsel for
the State Department; Charles NJ. Pep
per, of the Bureau of Trade Relations,
and the two Canadians.
The conferences will culminate We'd
nesday evening in dinner, at which
the Canadian visitors will be the guests
of the President.
Late this afternoon a telegram was
received at the White House from Earl
Grey, governor general of Canada, in
, forming the President that he will be
unable to attend the State dinner. When
the President sent the telegram of inVi-
tation last night he made plain that it
was no mere formality, but that he de-
sired the attendance of the governor
general.
No word had been received up to late
hour this afternoon from Sir Wilfrid
Laurier, the Canadian premier, who was
also invited 10 the state function.
The meeting at the White House to-
day was merely the formal introduction
of the conferences, the real work be-
ginning at the State Department this
afternoon. A review of the relations
between the United States and Canada
will probably occupy the first hours of
the conference for during the last nine
months. by reason of the unsettled con-
dtion of the tariff, the trade relations
termittent.
