EXPECTED TO DIE

The house where Thaw was found
is within a short distance from the
street where Thaw was in an automo-
bile accident last May. 1t was a dam
age suit instituted against his mother,
the owner of the machine, that
brought Thaw here last Monday to
defend the action.
How the detectives learned that
Thaw was in West Philadelphia, they
do not say. When they were asked
by the New York authorities to appre-
hend him on a warrant charging him
with assaulting Frederick Gump, Jr..
of Kansas City, they made a search of
the city and were convinced that he
had left the city.

"If Truth Were Known
About Belgium Neutrals
Would Not Hold to Words"

Paris, Jan. 11.-Cardinal Mercier in
a private letter printed in La Croix, the
official church organ. declares that if
the truth was known about Belgium
neutral nations would not confine
themselves to words. The Belgian car
dinal declares that Belgium is now
suffering as never before. He writes:
I'VE are all prisoners here, but if
the neutrals knew of the treatment in
fiicted on us 1 do not believe that they
would confine themselves to verbal
remonstrances. If they did, we should
have to despair of fraternal charity
and humanity"
The cardinal adds in a postscript
that although the Belgians are de-
pressed, they are by no means dis
couraged, and few want peace with
out victory.

situation and confidential advices to
