Developments

Special efforts were made to deter
mine what part, if any, was played in
the case by man with whom Freeman
Nadeau. the Patten man who is being
detained by Sheriff Bryson, stayed on
Monday night and by another man
who is thought to have been seen on
the road between Patten and Island
Falls on that night with horse and
sleigh in which Nadeau is thought to
have been riding.
The finding of the matted hair,
considerable quantity. was one of the
results of the five days systematic
search which has been in progress for
some definite trace of Hillman. This
search has included all the roads out
of Island Falls, deserted camps in the
forests for a considerable distance
about and other likely places.
Saturday. following the finding of the
hair, sleigh tracks We're discovered in a
field and were followed until they were
lost in the drifted snow. about eight
inches of which has fallen since Monday
night
These tracks were near Crystal stream
Searchers found a place where a hole
had been cut in the ice, and the stream
was dragged at this point.
Nadeau still asserts he knows nothing
of Hillman's disappearance. Feeling
against him is strong here and Deputy
Sheriff Guiou keeps an extra guard over
him as a precaution. Nadeau is held on
no definite charge. pending the inquiry
regarding Hillman. 1t is possible he will
be given a hearing on Monday
The searchers are hoping for a spell
of warmer weather. They think the
snow might go off enough to disclose the
body of Hillman.
Deep sympathy is feltS for Hillmans
family. His wife is trying to bear up
for the sake of her family. The father
of the missing man has been very i'll

VENEzUELAFOR
CONFERENCE ON
NEUTRALITY LAW

Washington, Dec. 27.-Venezuela has
formally proposed to all the neutral
governments of Europe and Asia, as
well as to the two Americas. that a
conference be held in Washington to
revise or supplement the rules of in
ternational law respecting rights OF
neutrals in the present war
The plan provides that the govern
ing board Of tho American Union
consisting of the diplomatic represen-
tativeS of all the American Republics,
should draft a program for the coz
ference or congress, and that the rules
finally agreed upon by all the neutrals
should in turn be submitted to the bel
ligerents.
Acting under instructions from his
government, DR.. Santos A. Dominica,
Venezuelan minister to the United
States has delivered memorandum
lomatic representatives here of neu-
trail governments in all parts Of the
globe, outlining in detail the need for
the international conference and what
it could accomplish.
The Venezuelan proposal would seek
not only to define the rights of neu-
trails in such questions as the pres
ence of belligerent warships in close
proximity to neutral shore. would en-
brace the entire field of contraband,
seizures and definitions with the idea
of reaching uniform understanding
to protect neutral commerce
