Seek Owner Of Silk
Undergarment as Clue,
To Elwell Murderer

New York, June l4.-Either
jealousy over a woman or venge-
ance for heavy losses sustained at
cards, furnished the motive for the
murder Friday morning of Joseph
B. Elwell, wealthy turfman hnd
whist wizard" according to the
police who were fluctuating between
these theories in the effort to solve
the crime.
Clues point to the woman theory,
say most of the detectives on the
case. They claimed this theory was
strengthened when it was learned
that Elwelrs housekeeper had found
in his bedroom woman's silk
undergament. This garment is re-
ported to belong to society
woman.
Conviction that the husband of
this woman, an ex-army man, killed
the whist expert, was expressed by
some detectives. The size of the
bullet and the fact that it had a
steel jacket point to the fact that
government automatic pistol was
used, thew said.

Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, June 14.-Thomas R.
Marshall of Indiana, vice president
of the United States, was discussed
here today by delegates Ell route to
the San Francisco convention as a
formidable candidate for the demo-
cratic presidential nomination on
an anti-administra;ion platform
which would incorporate these
salient features:
Ratification of a treaty Of peace
with reasonable reservations for
safeguarding American right, not
adhering strictly to the Wilson in
terpretations and approaching the
Lodge reservations.
Amendment of the Volstead pro-
hibition enforcement act giving
power to the states to establish an
alcoholic content limitation in the
manufacture of light wines and
beer.
Expression of sympathy for the
friends of Ireland In the United
States who are seeking to aid the
cause of the freedom of Ireland and
the establishment of an Irish re-
public.
Marshall's name was being men,
toned here as a strong possibility
notwithstanding the general impress
sion that William G. McAdoo,
choice of Wilson and the adminisrta.
ton forces, is to fight it out for the
nomination against Governor Cox
of Ohio, the latter appealing. prin.
cipally on prohibition liberalza.
Tonight night at French Lick, Ind,
Charles F. Murphy, leader for Tam
many hall, and Governor Smith of
New York were in conference with
Thomas T. Taggart with respect to
MarshalIs candidacy. Advance
guard delegates from Tammany,
who stopped in Chicago. let drop
hints that Tammany might be for
Marshall and cut away from both
McAdoo and Cox, if Marshall could
be induced to come OF. on straight
forward anti-Wilson league, moist
and Irish sympathy platform.

initteeman from New York, said to-
day that he believed the democrats

Japan Would Discuss
Shantunu With China

Toxic, June 14.-Japan has sent
another Shantung note to China.
Taking China"s contention that it is
unable to enter negotiations for the
return of Shantung because it eas
not signed the peace treaty, the reers
is understood, points out that CHI and
prior to it's agreement with Jar
promised to accept any arrangeme,.t
Japan later might make with Ger
many.
By the peace treaty Japan inherits
the German rights in Shantung,
therefore, the note says, although
China has not signed the treaty, the
only way to accomplish restoration
for which Japan is anxious-is
through direct negotiations between
the Japanese and Chinese govern
ments. The note expresses willing
ness to enter discussions at any
time China is ready.
