millionaire member of the great

city, thinks a working girl should
live on. He gave the figures this
afternoon to the state senate COM

Mandel added, gratuitously: "If

Lieut.. Gov. O'Hara today per-
sonally appealed to a group of
employers waiting to testify to
lend their aid toward the pass

wage CT $12 weekly for all wom-
en- workers in Illinois. Some
promised to do so.
Edward Hillman, million

that he began life as cash
boy at 81 per week. Asked
as to the relation between
low wages and vice, he said:

POLICE HUNT
FOR RICH
WOMAN

Missing for ten days and be-
lieved to be the victim of foul
play, the police today are bend
ing their efforts to find Mrs. ii.
Ii. Rosenthal, wealthy woman re-
siding i'm OthellO, Washington,
who disappeared in this city on
February %.
Mrs. Rosenthal was visiting
friends in Seattle and was the
guest of a Mrs. Griswald. The
morning of her disappearance she
told Mrs. Griswald she was going
to visit friends in Tacoma. That
was the last seen of her. Mrs.
Rosenthal reached this city on
the nine O'Clock boat and had in
her possession $3.50 in cash and a
valuable gold ring valued at
$500.
The case is mystifying the po-
lice of Seattle and Tacoma. They
fear she might have met with
foul play. The woman was about
80 years of age.

Warden Halligan took him over to
Steilacoom to set him at liberty.
At least this was the apparent
intention but in reality Halligan
was simply plotting the prisoner
into the hands of deputy U s.
marshal, for Frank Albert was
in waiting at Steilacoom and he
promptly took charge of Lyman
and brought him to Tacoma where
he appeared before u. s. Com
missioner McMillen for identifica-
tion.
Lyman was arrested in Califor-
MIA nearly two years ago for OPP
Grating a land swindle through
the mails. He escaped from the
hospital at Oakland but was re-
captured at Roseburg, Oregon.
and sent to the federal peniten-
tiary for IS months for attempt-
ing to escape.
He served 16 months, got two
months off for good behavior and
now will be taken back to Los
Angeles and tried on the original
charge.
He was taken to the county jail
this afternoon under $25, 900
bond and will be kept until Mon
day when he will be taken south
unless he fights extradition. He
said he would MAKE no resistance
to going back to California.
