barely moving through a slightly heav- ing sea, in the midst of a dull-gray mist. When Watkins emerged from the mist proposed to him that we go below and continue the search for gold. He was not anxious to go and Dorothy persuaded me to let her go with me. In the room where the ape had been hidden we found big chest and set to work to open it.
 It proved harder than I had be- lieved, the staple of the lock clinging to the hard teak wood of which the chest was made. The lid was heavy, but as I finally forced 1t backward a hinge snapped and permitted 1t to drop crashing to the deck. For an in- stant I could see nothing within.
 Lift up the lantern, Dorothy, please. No, higher than that. What in Gods name? Why, 1t is the corpse of woman!"
 I heard her cry out, and barely caught the lantern as 1t fell from her hand. At first doubted the evidence of my own eyes, snatching the bit of flarlng candle from its tin socket and holding 1t where the full glare Of light fell across the grewsome object. Ay, 1t was woman, with lower limbs doubled back from lack of space, but otherwise lying as though she slept, so perfect in preservation her cheeks ap- peared flushed with health, her lips half smiling. It was face of real beauty-an English face, although her eyes and hair were dark and her man. tllla and long earrings were unques- tionably Spanish. A string of pearls encircled her throat, and there were numerous rings upon her fingers. The very contrast added immeasurably to the horror.
 "She is alive! Surely she is alive!" The words were sobbed into my ear from Dorothy's lips.
 Alive! No, that Is impossible" l touched the figure with my hand. "The flesh Is like stone," said, thus held lifelike by some magic of the Indies. What can It all mean? Who could the woman be2 It is love or hate?"
 Not love, Geoffry. Love would never do this thing. It is hate, the gloating of revenge; there can be no other answer-this Is the end of a tragedy" ....
 There was nothing, not scrap of paper, not even the semblance of wound exposed. The smile on those parted lips had become one of mock cry; I could bear the sight no longer, and rose to my feet, clasping Dorothy close to me, as she still gazed down in fascination at the ghastly sight. -.

It was no longer reality but dream of delirium; l dare not think or speculate-my only desire being to get away, to get Dor othy away.

PREMIER HUGHES OF AUSTRALIA

It transpires that President Will son during his first attendance domi. mated the peace conference to such an extent that few of the members cared to raise their voices against his. One of the few, it is said, is William Nor ris Hughes, premier of Australia, who took exception to nearly everything Mir. Wilson had to say on the subject of the disposition of the former over seas German dependencies captured by the self-governiug British colonies.
 The contrast between the two men is great. Hughes is small, weighs less than 100 pounds and is alarmingly frail, having been a sufferer from dys- pepsla all his life. The utteranceS of Premier Hughes suggested the labor agitator rather than those of the uni versity president or the statesman, be- rayed a lack of cultivation and were delivered in tones that were not only particularly rasping, but also unneces- sarily loud, this being due to the fact

.PROGRESS|VES OF
SENATE WANT RAP
At SEN. PENR0sE
Conference to be Held Today
to Decide Upon Plan of Ac-
ton; Regulars Say the Fight
Is Over.
BY l.. c. MARTIN,
United Press Staff Correspondent.

United Press starr correspondent.
Washington, May 10-Senate pro-
gressive Republicans plan to meet to-
day to discuss what to do about Sem
ator Penrose.
Penrose is in line to be chairman of
the senate finance committee which
handles tax and tariff bills and some
progressives long ago said they would
vote against him even to the extent
of endangering Republican control of
the senate. They declare he is too
''reactionary" to be in charge of tax
legislation. Others who do not wish to
spoil party harmony but are unfriend-
ly to Penrose advocate making the
fight on him in the Republican caucus
next Wednesday. They want to make
speeches against Penrose and demand
a chance to vote against him and have
the vote made public, showing how
they stood Then, they said, the pro-
gressives should yield gracefully to
the will Of the majority Of the party
and seat Penrose.
At today's meeting. scheduled to be
held in Senator Borah's office, pro-
gressives hope to agree.
Regular" Republican leaders as
serted today the Penrose fight is all
over. Penrose, himself just back in
Washington, merely laughed when
asked about II.
Some observers saw in the meeting
planned for today a test whether pro-
gressives, as such will be a factor to
be reckoned with in the coming ses-
sion or whether they will continue to
operate individually as heretofore.
The extent to which senate pro-
gressives must be reckoned with as
a force in the 1920 campaign, also is
being watched.
At later conferences, Progressives
plan to discuss legislative programs.

ALEXANDER LOSES
IN FIRST CONTEST
BY III. G. HAMILTON

United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, May 10.-My head is
bloody but unbowed, might be the
statement of Grover Cleveland Alex
ander today.
In his first appearance since his re-
turn from the war, Alexander evident
ly was the same old ante-bellum AL
eXander who was called "the great
with one exception. He was wild. But
he proved he will be worth his weight
in victory bonds to the Cubs before
winter.
Alexander was beaten by Cincinnati,
1 to 0. 1t was a pitchers battle in
which the mighty one was opposed by
a man called Fisher, who was once
cast away by the Yanks. Alexander,
usually the victor at all times, didn't
have the ball trained as well as be-
fore he shifted the gunpowder. He
could make the pellet do tricks all
right, but it was kitteEish and often
went cavorting away on it's own hook
so five men walked. That was Alex
ander's downfall.
He beat himself.
AS against these walks, the box
score tells US he struck out four bats
men.
| In the eighth inning, Alexander
granted a pass to Groh, Rehing sac
rificed and Magee doubled, doing the
business.
The Cub fans are not disappointed
Alex remains Alex the Great.

to return and that they came
back, solely on their own initia-
tive. The Italians explained un-
officially, that their return was
necessitated through regard for
the other allies, Germany having
questioned the validity of
treaty in which the Italians would
not participate. AS consequence,
it would appear the status of tho
Italian question is just where it
was when Premier Orlando and
Minister Sonnno first departed
from Paris, with tho single ex-
ception that Orlando has since
received vote of confidence from
the Italian parliament.
Reports that the Chinese have beer
advised by the Pekin government not
to sign a treaty which turns the for
mer German concessions In the Shan
Tung peninsula over to Japan-as de-
cided by the big three"-have failed
to create any particular apprehension
in peace circles. Members OF the Am
erican commission expressed confi-
dence today that when the time came
the Chinese would sign the treaty
without further opposition. They
pointed out that China gains far more
under the league of nations than she
loses through the concessions to ia
pan and that she can not afford t
remain outside the league.
