NEW YORK. Aug. 25.-The British
freighter Dryden, upon which Eugene
Leroy was arrested yesterday at Rio
Janieiro in connection with the trunk
murder" mystery. sailed from New York

The authorities learned a week after

ing Leroy's description was on board

quested by wireless to hold the suspect
for the Rio Janeiro police. Simultane-
ously, Detroit police officials filed with
the state department at Washington an
application for Leroy's arrest and ex-
tradition, should he attempt to land in
Brazil or any country en- route.
The trunk murder mystery had
qualifications which extended from New
York to Michigan, Mississippi and Ala

REFORMERS RAPED
BY BAR PRESIDENT
Adherence to Doctrines of
Constitution Urged.

ST. LOUIS, Aug 25-Preservaton of
the constitution of the United States
and staunch adherence to it's doctrines
were demanded by Hampton L. Carson,
of Philadelphia, president of the Amer
lean Bar association, at the opening
session of the annual convention of the
organization here today.
The authors of the constitution, Pres
ident Carson said did not enact po-
litical or social economy or mistake ner-
vous twtchings for REFORM
They did not believe it was the func-
tion of the constitution to control per-
sonal habits or behavior, and did not
place 1t within the power of small
fraction of the people to keep the re-
mainder in constant agitation, he said.
The American people are what they
are because our. fathers were what
they were," President Carson said.
The threats of Boishevism do not
cause fear in this country, he said, and
the people will defend their institutions
against the menace. "Our form of gov
eminent is American, and American it
will remain" he added,

the Polish army expressed the opinion
here today that in the event of de-

Poland and soviet Russia would be
inevitable until an arbitration board

members on such board.

return to Warsaw. He was here en-
route to Danzig with large quantities
of supplies, but said he would go back
