MYSTERY SHROUDS
DISAPPEARANCE
OF NEGRO WOMAN
Friends Fear Belle Stein
Has Met With Foul
Plav.

Colored people in the west end of
town are aroused over supposed
abduction of negro woman who
lives on West Second avenue, and it
is feared by the relatives of the wom-
an that there has been foul play.
The woman disappeared Monday
night, clad only in her night gown,
it is said, and has not been seen, or
heard OF since. The people with
whom she lived, at Second and Hic-
DRY street stated that she disappear
ed about 10 O'clock Monday night,
The fact that she left all of her
clothes and belongings at the house,
strengthens the belief that she was
abducted.
Friends of the woman have en- ex-

plausible. They connec THE dsap-
| pearance Of the woman with the re-

PLANS TO LAUNCH
LEAGUE OUTLINED
AT LUNCHEON
Discuss Inaugural Meeting
At Washington With
Wilson AS Leader.

Paris, April 30.-Plans for launch
ing the league of nations were fairly
definitely outlined at luncheon
which Col. E. NJ. House gave today to
Sir James Eric Drummond the Sec
retarygeneral Of the league; Lord
Robert Cecil, and Others The plans
First-Preparatory details, which will
be worked out at headquarters to be
established at London during the
coming summer; second, the inau-
gural meeting of the league at Wash
ington next October, under the presi-
dency of President Wilson; third, the
permanent establishment of the lea
que at Geneva, next fall, or winter.
| The property details will begin soon
after the signing of the treaty and
will be in the hands of the commit
tee of nine designated by President
Wilson's resolution before the last
plenary session of the conference.
Colonel House, Lord Robert Cecil and
the Greek premier, Eliphtherios Ven
izelos, will he among the members.
Leon Bourgeois probably will not
be the French member, as he does
not speak English and most of the
proceedings will be in that language.
Colonel House, with a considerable
staff, will remain in Europe after the
conference closes and headquarters
will be removed to London, which is
more convenient for preliminary
| work. President Wilson will fix the
| date of the first meeting and ask the
nations to name their three delegates
to attend the inaugural gathering at
Washington.

ALL GOVERNMENT
employees WARNED
OF ANARCHY PLOT
No Means Of Telling How
Many Bombs Are Now
In Mails.

Washington, April 30.-Discovery of
New York today of sixteen bombs,
each put together by experts, result
ed tonight in general warning to
government employees to be on watch
for what authorities believe to be
an anarchist plot of spread terror
through the country.
While steps were taken immediate
ly to deal with the situation already
developed, postoffice department Off
Gals, frankly admitted there was
absolutely no means of telling exact
ly how many bombs might have been
deposited in the mails. The 16 pick
ed up in New York were regarded as
a catch find, having been held for lack
of postage. Coming on the heels of the
damage caused by an internal machine
mailed to Former Senator Hardwick,
of Georgia, and in the same sort of
package, with the same department
store label, led to prompt confisca-
ton by the government and quick
search for similar weapons of de-
structon moving through the mails.
Authorities Seek Motives.
Because of the character of the
, men to whom the packages were ad
dressed, the one thought of the au-
| thorites centered in the motive. The
attempt on the lives Of cabinet MEM
bers, justice of the supreme court
of the United States, governor, a
mayor, and others linked up with re-
cent agitation and discussion of the
question of after-the-war immigra-
ton. But the authorities could not
altogether agree on this as the rea-
son behind the wholesale attempts at
destruction.
Word reached Investigators that
Gimbel Brothers, New York, depart
ment store owners, whose mailing
tags were on each package had de-
clared the tag a forgery. No effort
was made to disguise the fact that
this information was disquieting for
that meant, officials said, in the
ecent of a wholesale mailing of
bombs that many would reach their
destinations bearing the mark of
other firms. Although the public was
cautioned as to the opening of strange
packages, the departments detective
force realized that if all the internal
machines put in the mails have not
been recovered, it is the departments
job to get them before delivery.
Bureau At Work.
Every branch of the bureau of COM
munications was set to work, start
ing with the men who take mail from
street boxes and ending with the car
riers who deliver it at office ant
home. Steps also were taken in
Washington to safeguard government
officials to whom other dangerous
bombs might be sent Personal or
ders went to all departments, includ-
ing the courts, SO that by no possible
chance will strange bundles pass the
net.
So far, the only damage reported
was that in the home of former Sen
ator Hardwick at Atlanta. where III,

Both Railroad Administra.
tion And Shipping Board

St. Louis, April 30.-Development

outlet for the products Of the Missis-
sipp: Valley and assignment of ves-
sells of the American merchant ma
r;nc for service from New Orleans to
South America and the Orient to sup

policy of the railroad administration
and the United States Shipping
Board at meeting attended by dele
gates to the United States Chamber
of Commerce convention.
Walker D. Hines, director general
of railroads, declared in addressing
the delegates. that so long as the
railroad administration exists, the
experiment of water transportation
in the Mississippi valley would be
pressed.
eff the utility of the Mississippi
river for shipping was demonstrated
the railroad administration would
count it as one of it's greatest achieve
ments," he said. Government opera
ton of the waterways transporta.
ton system during the experimental
stage and action by congress to com.
pei coordination of railroads and
waterways and interchange of traf-
ic through rates. he said, were neces-
sary in the development program.
Chairman Edward N. Hurley, of the
United States Shipping Board, as.
sured the delegates that ships would
be assigned to regular sailings from
New Orleans for the east and west
coasts of Sotuh America and China
and Japan.
