WASHINGTON, d. c.. Sept 25.--A

The latter alone amounted to about
$11,00O,000 OF the total amount
more than 20 per cent was sustained

Washington May 23.-Henry w.
r. Page, wealthy New York linen
merchant under sentence to serve
five years in the Federal prison at
Saltwater Mimi, for libeious attack on
Congressmen, has disappeared from
his home in New York and efforts of
the United States authorities there
to arrest him have so far proven fu-
tile.
When ,he order to apprehend Mr..
Page was received from Justice Bar
nard of the District of Columbia
Supreme Court yesterday Unli;d
States Marshall William Henkel went
at once to Pages Office at 6 West
Twentieth street.
There he was assured that the man
he sought was "out of town" and
neighbors said that he had not been
seen there during the day. The mar
shall and his deputies made a round
of the clubs and hotels where they
believed Mr.. Page might be found,
but no trace of the man wanted could
be found, and today the belief is in
dulged in that he has left the city.
Mr.. Page was convicted and SEN
fenced a year ago but justice Barn
ard released him on parole. His re-
commitment was ordered following,
the receipt at the White House
few days ago of "APetMion to the
Government of THE UnitedStates,"
bitterly assailing the Department of
Justice and reiterating the charges
against several Congressman. The
document was not made public but
it con:ained 113 pages.
As Mr.. Page is British subject
it is though. that he may have left
this country.
