we came down into the fertile valley

with no adventures and had observed
little worthy of consideration from
military standpoint.
While constantly observant OF those
points regarding which had been dis
patched. my one overmastering
thought during all those hours was the
possibility of again meeting with Edith
Brennan and proving of some assist
ance to her. Her greeting OF me in
the Federal hospital had been 80
sweetly gracious, so marked with ten

her words, and even more of the look
which accompanied them, had so re-
manned with me in encouragement
that | longed to encounter her again.

in despair, yet like the moth must
continue to SINCE my wings until the
fame devoured me. Now, however. as
we actually drew near to where l sup
posed she might be, felt my earlier
courage fast deserving me. Nor was
l furnished with even the slightesI
excuse for pressing on; my orders did
not positively compel me to proceed
and nothing appeared along the way
to lead me to suppose that harm Oh
any kind threatened that peaceful val
lev. Everything meeting my eyes eVl

PRISONERS SHOUT
 AND SING IN CELLS

Seated in the gloaming light of their prison cells at police headquarters, the trio of murderers, around which a web of evidence is daily being woven tighter. and tighter, rec1ine upon their cots and indulge in fragments of song or shout cheering words to each other. After the first shock of their arrest and the constant application of ques- tions by the officials, had passed, they were visited by counsel and suddenly cheered up materially.
 It is believed by the officers that their conduct is that of men hardened to crime and death, but that in some of the inscruitable ways of the under world they have managed to comrnu- nicate with each other and their friends outside in an effort to fornu- late a likely story to clear them selves, even with the sacrifice of Buo- homo, as well sounding a warning to those likely to become witnesses against them.
 The slanting rays of the afternoon sun striking along the bars of the prison doors sometimes reflect the pie ture of drawn and haggard faces, as

 tThe committee will not tolerate any further attempt on the part ol anyone to shape its course. We shall proceed in our way to complete the record. Judgment of our efforts may be appropriately withheld until the actual official report"

During the inquiry at Washington today into the cause of the Titanic disaster, Senator Alden Smith, chair man of Uncle Sam's probers, caused a sensation by charging that some potent influence was at work to hin der the American government in Its efforts to learn the truth of the wreck. In plain American speech Senator Smith sounded a fair warn ing that such tactics would not be tolerated Here is what the Senator said:
 'I want merely to state the pur- pose of this inquiry" he said, Tt is to get all the facts bearing upon this unfortunate catastrophe. It is of course apparent that the officers are not shipbuilders or architects, and the committee has assumed that if they tell all they know of the cir cumstances that surrounded the pro- gress of the ship before the collision and what transpired thereafter that would be all we would expect.
 "It has been our plan since the be- ginning of the inquest to obtain tes- timony of the subjects of Great Brit ain here as soon as possible and that course will be followed by the com mittee as much as possible. It is to the credit of the officers and crew that we have had no very trouble
