BROTHER AS K|DNAPPER
Detectives Gives Phillip Marino
Twenty-Four Hours To Tell
Location Of Kidnapped
Boy.

Chicago, Aug 9--Inspector Re-
we're who has been conducting the
search for six year old Angelo Marion
belived to have been Kidnapped, to-
night granted Phillip Marino, the
child's twenty year old brother
twenty-four hours In which to pro-
duce the missing boy on pain of be-
ing locked up as kidnapper.
Events of the last twenty-four
hours together with the ease with
which the alleged black hand kid
nappers have conveyed letters to the
Mariona family in spite of the rigid
police line have caused the police to
believe that the kidnapping Of little
Angelo was the result Of family
disagreement while they have not
charged the elder brother as being a
party to the crime they believe he
knows who had the boy and where
he has been hidden.

TREATIES CHANGE
S[EMSI|ECESSARY.
AMENDMENT OF CONVENTION
WILL BEING FAVORABLE
ACTION IN SENATE.
ARE NOW IN COMMITTEE.
No Efforts Made TO Have French and
British Agreements Reported
to Senate--To Meet Again
Saturday.

Washington, Aug. 9.--Friends al
the British and French arbitration
treaties in senate have reached the
conclusion that 1t will be nesessary
to amend the convention In order to
get favorable actiona upon them
This conclusion is the result of the
consideration of the document by
the senate committee on foreign re-
lations hich has taken themrup.
The committee adjourned late to-
day to meet again Saturday. Both
meetings were devoted To the con-
sideration of the docments on their
merits. The first in company with
Secretary Knox and the second with
the members themselves without the
secretary's aid.
No effort was made to have re-
ported and n became extremely
doubtful to some of the friends of
the administration whether such a
course would be wise at the present
time owing to objections to some
features of the agreement as they
now appear.
Several senator's expressed opposi-
tion to This provision and more than
one suggestion was made that the
paragraph should be eliminated or
az least materially modified
No motion was made to this effect
but II there had been vote II prob
ably would have carried. The mag
nitude of the extant of this criticism
will be brought to the president and
some senators viii urge the cancel
lation of The provision y
AT the Afternoon session sugges-
ton of the morning meeting that
the whole question should be post
poned until December took the
shape of motion to that effect. In
this connection the friends of the
treaty received the greatest encour-
agement4 that was given them DUR
ing the day. Many members of the
committee expressed themselves as
friendly to the general proposition
involved in the treaties and some
went so far as to say that with a
few changes 1t might be possible TO
get favorable action in the present
session, especially If 1t should be
prolonged to an extent. tst

AMERICAN ACTOR
\ PER|SHED N FIRE
JAMESON LEE TINNEY GUEST OF
ENGLISH HOTEL WHICH

ONLY DEATH N FIRE.

ger Will Keep 1t

London, Aug. 9-Jamieson Lee
Finney an American actor perished
tonight in fire which destroyed a
part Of the Carlton hotel where he
was a guest. None of the hotel staff
members are missing.
The body was found in the bath
room adjoining Finney's room on the
fifth floor Of the Annex. His face
was SO badly charred that the feat
ures We're unrecognizable. Appar-
emily Fiuney had gone in the bath
room to bathe before dressing and
wasasphyxiated
The body was removed to the NOR
que later in the evening
This death was the only one re-
sulting from the fire which however
was attended by exciting scenes and
considerable loss to the building.
A large number Of American CUES
is escaped from the hotel but lost
of London's most fashionable resorts
and mauy Americans were among its
quests, OF the 200 persons stopping
at the hotel when the fire started
'nany were from the States and while
all had narrow escapes non except
Finuey suffered from injury.
The fire burned for two hours and
a half ut was confined mainly TO
that end of the hotel adjoining his
majesty's theatre and the fifth and
sixth floors which were gutted.
Lines of hose were dragged up all
the stairways and streams of water
were poured into the upper rooms.
The damage from water is greater
than that done by fire and the mana
ger says he will resume business as
the hotel is not badly damaged.

Rested and Perspired
Freely.

Rome, Italy, Ag. Pope Plus
tonight enjoyed several hours of
rest In his room on the third
floor of the vatican to which he was
moved today from his small bed
chamber on the fourth. The new
rooms are spacious and airy and the
change seems to have revived the
pope's strength somewhat and cher
ed his spirit
When his doctors visited his holi-
ness in the evening his temperature
was 101 but at midnight after he
had perspired freely it fell below 100.
The poison in the knee also dimin-
ished, and his holiness was able to
obtain some refreshing sleep.

Washington, Aug, 9.---George w
Perkins, director of the United

dered before the bar OF the house
today by the house committee of in
quiry into the affairs of the steel
corporation. Neither will he be.
After heated session of the com
mittee in which was discussed the
refusal on Perkins part to answer
suggestive line of questions re-
gardiug contributions to campaign
funds the committee reached an un-
derstanding whereby all threats
were waived.
At the outset the committee in
exective session the motion was in
troduced by Representative Little
ton to reconsider the action of yes
terday in which the chair was sus-
tanned in ordering that the witness
answer questions as to his personal
campaign contributions.
After this was done a plan was
agreed upon as to just what ques-
tions regarding campaign contribu-
tions should be asked and 1t was
understood, that Richard Linda
bury, counsel for the committee,
would declare that he knew of one
contribution of $4,000 made by
that corporation to campaign fund
in 1904.
This he afterwards stated before
the committee and therepon the po-
litical phase of the inquiry appar-
emily was dropped
Following the disposition of the
campaign question Representative
Beall led Perkins again into the f.
nancial panic and The Tennessee
coal deal bringing up eventually the
bond conversion transaction by the
steel corporation.

bered an interview in the New York

Materials and CoIors
Silks, especially the revived ribbed silks
and soft grosgrains are just right for these
dresses, also Charmeuse, and all the hosts
Of silk and wool Weaves that adapt them
selves to present styles. Colorings are
important, and one can choose a vivid

material or trimming have an equally i'm
pressive get up. If liked pale tints or
white can be selected, the lines brought
ont and emphasized by dash Of cerise or
black, or green or any tint desired that
relieves the fatness of pale toned toilet.
Fringes, Beads and Fur
Fringes of varying widths and styles,
made up in silk or beads; beads embfoid-.
cries in Egyptian patterns and colors;
touches Of fur to border the underskirt,
edge revere, or bring out the line of a
sleeve cuff. All these together in sin.

are required to give character to the frock.
