America Hinders-Lack Of
Plans Admitted.

STOCKHOLM, via London. December
26.-The members of the Ford peace
expedition have held various meetings
in an endeavor to arouse peace sentl-
ment in Sweden. These meetings were
not accorded an official character. The
Swedish peace and arbitration league
decided that it was unable, oficialiy,
to recognize the expedition. because
it came without official recognition in
America
Those who have been in charge OF the
expedition since Mr.. Ford's departure
for the United States say that they are
still without definite program of pro-
cedure. The members of the peace mis-
sion will leave Stockholm next Wednes-
day night and arrive at Copenhagen
Thursday. Information has been re-
ceived that it will be impossible to go
to The Hague through Germany. Hence
this will necessltate the chartering of
a steamer from Denmark and proceed

MAY SOLVE MURDER MYSTERY.
Two Negroes Believed to Know of
Detroit Tragedy.

DETROIT, Mich, December 25.-The
local police believe that two negroes
under arrest here in connection with a
recent hold-up can do much toward
solving the mystery connected with
the murder of Miss Carrie Selvage in
Indianapolis in 1900.
The prisoners are Rufus w. Cantrel1
and Edward Gowdy. The latter was
until lately connected with an organi-
zation known as 'the Charity Army
of America"
According to the police Cantrell and
Gowdy have become enemies. Cantrell
told them that if he could share the
reward said to have been offered for
the arrest of the slayer of Miss Sell
wage he would reveal the murderer.
He then declared Gowdy killed the
woman, and that he, Cantrell, later
sold the body to medical college.
The officers claim they investigated
the circumstances in connection with
Cantrelrs statements and that practi-
cally all of his allegations have been
verified The arrest of the two men
was made by Inspector Warren C.
Richardson of the city detective bu-
reau.
