A Union Pacific official at Cheyenne
asked that the letters be sent there
for examination. That is an old
Carlisle trick" said the official. They
are very apt to be genuine" The
letters were mailed today by special
delivery to Cheyenne for comparison
with the bandits handwriting.

Since the robbery of the Los Angeles

Search Kept Up for Weeks.

The childs disappearance created
widespread interest For weeks search
ing parties secured the countryside in
the belief that he had wandered into
one of the nearby swamps and per-
ished. Later the kidnapping theory
was advanced, and supposed clues led
officials to many sections of the coun-
try. Rewards aggregating $4,000 were
offered by Aammonton authorities and
individuals, and a description of the
boy was sent broadcast.
BILLY" was the son of Hercules
DanSey, who came here from Pitts

The children were selected by lot
from the high schools of the greater
city, fifteen boys and fifteen girls from
each school, and were carried out to
the cruiser in launches provided by
the board of education. AS each boy
and girl arrived at the gangway of
the Renown he or she was handed an
invitation to tea by midshipman about

to a capstan, where he stood laughing
at them while they cheered him for sew
eral minutes. When he had a chance to

little speech which quite obviously was
spontaneous.

said. THE Renown is large ship, but
t is not nearly large enough to hold as
many of you as i would like to see here.

have good time"

Praises Relations With Canada

There is one other thing to which
[ should like to refer tonight. not
only because it has impressed me
with new force during my travels on
this continent. but also because it is
an actual and visible example of the
objects and aims which the Pilgrims
Society was formed to promote. I
do not think anywhere else in the
world. except on the North American
continent, will you find a frontier be-
tween two nations three thousand
miles long with no extensive physi-
cal barrier. no military defense no
other dividing line than boundary
determined by mutual confidence and
good will. AS Br;tisher and as a
Canadian I take a high pride in that
boundary-the international frontier
between Canada and the United States
for it seems to me to illustrate in a
very striking and practical way the
objects for which Americans and
Britishers fought in the great war.
Just think of 1.-THE ideal which ap-
pears SO difficult of attainment else
where has been an actual and positive
reality in North America for over a
hundred years.
II have asked myself how that ideal
has been attained here SO much in
advance of international conditions in
other parts of the world, and l think
the answer is quite clear. 1t has been
attained because you, on your side
| of the international boundary, and
| we Britishers. on ours, have, under
somewhat different forms, the same
political faith. the same human aims,
self-governing peoples, living side by
side, each confident in the good will
| of the other, have given this splendid
| example to the world"
