DETECTIVES FOLLOWING
 UP STORIES OF THE CRANK

Philadelphia. Aug. 10s-Another day of investigation and running down of sup posed clues failed to develop anything of importance in the Coughlin kidnap- ping case The authorities continued their questioning of Augusta Pasquale admittedly the writer of the letters sign ed "The Crank" but announced tonight thy had obtained but little additional information.
 Investigation today, according to the statements Through his consul the claimed to have visited with the myster- ious "Joe,'' who he says is the actual 11idnapper Detectives went to these places and found, they claim, that in each case where the visit of Pasquale was recalled he had been alone One place was saloon where the bartend- ger identified a photograph of Pasquale and told how he had f1ourished a large uoll of $1e0 bills Another was a de- apartment store. A saleswoman remem- 5bered selling a sheet to the prisoner and icommented afterwards on the big roll eof money he carried. Both said he had been unaccdmpanied.
 Counsel for George H. Coughlin, the missing childs father today joined those who have issued statements predicting an early. solution of the mystery and stated he believed the baby still is alive. MT Coughlin was not so optimistic. After seeing the prisoner he said he feared the threats of death contained in the letters signed 'TThe Crank" had been carried out.

BOLsHEvIK FORCES ARE
 CLOSING IN ON WARSAW

Paris, Aug. 10-Slowly but Bolsheviki are closing in on Warsaw, according to the latest news reaching Paris. Appreciable endorsements ap- pear to have been brought to the north ern Soviet army, and in the Mlawa re- zion their advance is growing more dangerous. While the latter movement does not immediately threaten comnIuni- cations between Warsaw and Danig through the Vistula Valley, the Poles, nevertheless will be obliged to form a
 new army north of Warsaw to cope with it.
 To do so the Poles would have draw on the army which is concentrating north of Lublin with the object of fall ing on Russian forces which managed to cross to the left bank of the Bug rover in that region, a manoeuvre which mil itary experts believe might be the means of saving Warsaw and infiicting a ser ious check on the Bolsheviki But ap- parently this operation is longer pos sfble, for the situation is notably worse on the Big east of Warsaw, the Bol- sheviki having succeeded in extending two bridgeheads they held on the left bank below Drohicin.
 French military opinion is convinced the Poles will be obliged to abandon the
 Bug River where they are
 oon, and fall back on the Visual, after making a brief stand on the Vierprz River. Under these circumstances the
 battle of Warsaw would be fought in Warsaw itself.

Cox VIII Speak in
 New Haven Aug. 28
To Make a Flying Trip East Before Starting on His Western Tour.

New Haven, Conn, Aug 10-Govern- or James M. Cox, the democratic presi- dential nominee will speak to the demo- crats of Connecticut before his trip to the west, it was announced by the demo- cratic state central committee, tonight The plan agreed to by National Chair man White is to have Governor Cox make af1ying trip to this city on the evening of August 2S, and immediately thereafter start for Dayton, Ohio, to pre- pare for his trip west.
 That Governor Cox will have big audience of party followers is assured because the state committee has already the party organization at shore resort that day.
 The meeting of the committee followed a diner at which practically every mem Der of the committee was present. State Chairman Dovid E. Fitzgerald told the members some of the details of the trip of the state delegation to the San Fran cisco convention, and also in an inform al way dealt upon some of the plans for the campaign in the state and in the country.
 Sheriff Reilly, who had been to New York to see National Chairman White in regard to securing visit here of Gov ernor Cox, made a report which gave assurance that the presidential nominee would address Connecticut democrats on August 28. In view of this, the com mittee went ahead with plans for it's outing expecting that party followers would come here from all parts of the state.
 Chairman Fitzgerald named sub-com- mittee of five act with the sheriffs as- sociation, the New Haven Young Men s Democratic Club and the Annunzio Dem- ocratic Club to arrange for Governor Cox's visit The outing will be man aged by the state committee. The sub committee are c. J. Dillon of Hart ford. Frank Coe of Torrington, John A. Cornell, Jr. of Bridgeport. John A. Walsh of Stamford, and Thomas F. Mo Grath of Waterbury. This sub-conmit- tee later assigned duties to it's members reception. MT. Mc0rath; on publ4city. MT. Walsh; on printing, MT. Dillon, and ono speakers, MT. Coe.
 MT. Reilly in his outline of the visit of Governor Cox said that the nominee was to make only one speech. accord ing to the plan for his eastern trip, and that was to be at the outing of the New York City policemen's association at Coney sIland, on the 18th. As the speech will be given in the afternoon Governor Cox will be able to reach New Haven in the evening for his Coonnecti- cut address. From here Governor Cox probably will return direct to Dayton. O., as he will make his first speech on his trip west at Columbus on Septemb- CT 3.
 As a means of making accommoda- tions for town delegations, the sub-com- mittee will send tickets to each town chairman, dividing the number as equit- ably as possible. At this time the state committee is unable to say what hali will be secured in New Haven for the meeting but some members were of the opinion that an overflow meeting would have to be arranged for.
 The state committee acting as a gen eraI committee will meet with the sub committee Saturday expecting that the entire plan for the outing and the meet ing which Governor Cox will address will have been perfected.

HARDING TO STICK TO
 FRONT PORCH CAMPAIGN

Marion, O., Aug. 10.-Unaltered adher- ence to Senator Harding's front porch program of campaigning was announced at his headquarters tonight after the progress of the plan had been reviewed at consultation of the republican nomi- nee with active leaders of his party.
 The announcement was made by Will H. Hays, the national chairman, who said the candidate and all of his close advisers were agreed that most of his addresses should be delivered here, though he might go to other cities for "a couple of especial speeches for exceptional events" He added that so far no speaking dates away from Marion had been arranged.
 Harry M. Daugherty, who was Senator Hardings pre-convention manager, and now is member of the campaign execu- tive committee, also declared there was perfect agreement on the subject and that Governor Cox's plans for a whirlwind campaign would result in no alteration of the decision.
 Both of the leaders said they had brought the candidate gratifying reports of the impression made throughout the country by his stay-at-home method of campaigning, which more than offset the great pressure" that had been brought to bear to induce him to speak in vari- ous localities.
 Chairman Hays said that although many local leaders had asked that the candidate come into their states, he felt the invitations were not indicative of any disagreement with the general policy. He said it was impossible to indicate now to what sections of the country Senator Harding might go for the speeches he will make outside of Marion.
 Besides Chairman Hays and MT. Daugh- erty, the nominee conferred during the day with Edmund M Wasmuth, republi- can state chairman for Indiana, and the possibility of a speech during October in Indianapolis is understood to have been discussed.
 His talks with the party leaders occu- pied virtually all of Senator Harding s day and he left his office only to cast his vote in the state primaries.
 Many details of campaign management were considered at the nominees confer ences with his party leaders. The suf- frage ratification situation in Tennessee is understood to have been one of the subjects discussed and it was indicated that the republican organization probably would bring increasing pressure to bear for ratification. The league of nations issue also was considered and MT. Hays said afterwards that he considered the lines of the fight daily was becoming more definite

TENN. LEGISLATURE TAKES
 UP WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Haston of Van Buren county, Douglas Wikle of Williamson and Frank Fuller of Shelby were appointed a committee to arrange a meeting with re- publican leaders and it was expected a conference would be held some time to- morrow.

therefore the diplomatic service of the po!sheVlst government would become a enamel for intrigues and the propagan- da of revolt against the institutions and laws of countries, with which it was at peace, which would be an abuse of friendship to which enlightened govern- ments cannot subject themselves.
 No Mutual Confidence or Trust
 Tn the view of this government, there cannot be any common ground upon which it can stand with a power whose conceptions of international relations are so entirely alien to it's own, so utterly repugnant to its moral sense There can be no mutual confidence or trust, ID re- spect even, if pledges are to be given and agreements made with a synicaI re- pudiation of their obligations already in the mind of one of the parties We can not recognize, hold official relations with, or give friendly reception to the agents of government which is deter mined and bound to conspire against our institutions; whose diplomats will be the agitators of dangerous revolt; whose spokesmen say that they sign agree ments with no intention of keeping them.
 ITO summarize the position of this government, I would say, therefore in response to your excellency's inquiry. that 1t would regard with satisfaction a declaration by the allied and associated powers that the territorial integrity and true boundarise of Russia shall he re spected. These boundaries should prop erly include the whole of the former Russian empire, with the execution of Finland proper, Ethnic Poland ani such territory as may by agreement form a part of the Armenian state The aspira- tions of these nations for independence are legitimate. Each was forcibIv an nexed and their liberation from opDres sive alien rule involves no aggressions against Russia's territorial rights. and has received the sanction of the public opinion of all free peoples. Such a de- claration pre-supposes the withdrawal of all foreign troops from the territory en- braced by these boundaries, and in inc opinion of this government should be ac companied by the announcement that m transgression by Poland Finland or any other power, of the line so drawn and proclaimed will be permitted
 Thus only aan the bolshevist regime be deprived of it's false, but effective ap- peal to Russian nationalism and com pelled to meet the inevitable challenge of reason and self-respect which the Rus sian people, secure from invasion and territorial violation, are sure to address them and tyranny that expresses them.
 fThe policy herein outlined will conn- mand the support of this government
 Accept excellency, the renewed as- surances of my highest consideration.

 HOPEFUL FOR PEACE

London, Aug. 10-'T am still hopeful of peace" were the opening words of Premier Lloyd Georges announcement in the House of Commons today with re- gard to then Russo-Polish crisis.

 Mir Lloyd George declared the Polish attack was not justified in the opinion of the British Government, and that the Soviet Government, in any conditions of peace, was entitled to take into account the facts of the attacks made by the Poles upon Russia and that these at tacks were delivered despite the warn ings of the Allies to Poland.
 The Soviet, he declared, was entitled to demand such guarantees as would be exacted by any Power against rep etition of attacks of that kind. What was challenged, he said, was that "noth- ing justiies retaliation, reprisal or punishment which goes to the extent Of wiping out national existence"
