LEROY SEEN HERE
ON DAY. BODY WAS
FOUND IN TRUNK
Acquaintance Recognized Him
Uptown-Perfumery Clue
May Aid in Capture.

Eugene Leroy" was seen in up
town New York two hours before
the trunk from Detroit containing
the mutilated body OF Katherine Lou
Jackson Was opened. Il was learned
to-day. A man who had known the
fugitive for whose apprehension the
State of Michigan now offers a re-
ward Of $4,000, saw Leroy" at that
time.
The fact that Leroy" was seen here
gave rise to the belief that he may be
in New York now and accounts for
the mysterious activity of the New
York police after it had been an
nounced that this city was through
with the case following the identified
ton of the body.
Policeman Leo TrGmbull Of Detroit
and Mrs. Marie Trumbull, his wife,
who once shared an apartment with
the "Loroys" had a long conference
with Capt. Carey Of the Homicide
Bureau yesterday and to-day Trum-
bull and Detective Paul Wencil OF the
Detroit bureau checked out at the
Hotel st. James and disappeared on
mysterious GRAND Mrs. Trurlbull
and Assistant Prosecutor Robert T.
Speed of Detroit remained here.
Mrs, Leroy to-day COVE a clue which
may help in locating Leroy or Fern
andez, as he is also known.
Leroy uses perfume with over
towering hberality," said Mrs. Trum-
bull. From the heavy odor OF 1t, she
and her husband deduce, he must
anOint his entire body with perfume
He also powders his face conspicu-
ously. particularly marked because
naturally he is Of swarthy complex
ion with jet-black hair. In spite OF
these manifestations Leroy Ia de-
scribed as being a vrile, masculine
person, with strong voice and pow
erful body.

ROBBER Chief
OF MANY GANGS
GETS Is YEARS
Directed Raids of Different
Kinds Which Brought
100000 in Booty.

Judge Mulqueen in General Sessions
to-day complimented the police for
catching Andrew Aquinto, twenty-five
years old, OF No. 80 MacDougal Street,
who, the court was informed, was
the director general or several bands
of robbers that made away with
merchandise estimated at nearly a
million dollars in two years. The
judge sentenced Aqunto to State
prison for ten years on a larceny
charge and five more on a burglary
charge.
His chief Of staff, Angelo Palentino,
thirty-one, of No. 81 Thompson
Street was given Ave years IN Sing
Sing, and Anthony Episcopia. seven
teen, Of No. 80 Thompson Street and
Louis SlmORe, twenty two, of No.
552 BrOome Street. were released on
suspended sentence because they
turned States evidence.
Aquinto was known to the police
as Frank Ross. He employed sew
eral burglar bands, each operating
Independently of the others. He
never allowed their members to meet
one another and he kept in the back
ground, sending his instructions and
plotting his next jobs with Palentino,
his confidential assistant. He had u
nationwide organization to dispose of
the loot. 1t was moved from place to
place each night and eventually de-
rlivered to his storage places in sew
eral Connecticut towns. From Con-
necticut he shipped the loot to points
" est and South where he had agents
to sell it.
The arrests followed the robbing of
n loft at No, A Watts Street on April
s OF silks valued at $4,000. The police
trapped Simone storing the fabrics in
his home. They also arrested the
seventeen year-old boy Episcopia, and
from the two got evidence which re-
suited in the arrest and conviction OF
the leader and his lieutenant.
AquintO, it was stated, also had an
automobile theft syndicate. He was
recently arraigned in the Bronx on
stolen auto charge, but the case was
dismissed because OF a technical error
in the complaint.

INTERESTING COMMENT ON THE
WoRt OF THE COUNCIL.

Perhaps the most interesting excerpt
from documents discussing the meet
tings now taking place in the Council
of the League and its subcommittee
is the following:
The League of Nations Is building
strongly, but not at all spectacularly.
A wholly now method Of international
co cooperation is going to come out Of
It. 1t will NOT, of course be either
the creator of the millennium, as so
many of its friends say, nor the Gre
ator of a superstate, as its enemies
feel. Quite on the other hand, 1t will
be q very practical and essential
working medium through which the
nations can meet regularly on all
matters of common interest and draw
up a programme to be submitted to
their respective states for approval
or disapproval."
The League of Nations, therefore, is
q going concern, flexible enough in its
organization to permit modification OF
its constitution and bylaws, so that
America can enter II without fear Of
being outvOted or compelled to go to
war at the behest of other nations.
And when the present political cam
paign is over, whether Mr.. Harding
or Mr. Cox is elected, there are going
to be notifications to reassure the
American public. American member
ship in the League looks more likely
to-day with the prominent part Mr..
Root is playing in its deliberations
that at any time since the controversy
between President Wilson and his OPP
ponents began TO becloud the issue.

POSITION IN U. 8. ADDS TO SIG
NIFICANcE OF WORK.

Nevertheless their position as
Americans adds significance TO thor
presence for the statesmen OF Europe
are only too willing TO recognize the
blsness OF spirit and viewpoint which
allowed Mr.. Root espec ally, with his
well known political alignments In
the United States TO accept an ap-
pointment by an organization (thc
League of Nations) 10 which his own
country and even his own political
party has expressed such vehement
opposition. OF course, the fact that
he has been willing to serve Is taken,
whether rightly or wrongly. as an
indication that this foremost Of
American statesmen accepts at least
the broad lines OF the existing League
of Nations.
THE committee had not been sit
ting a week before it was possible to
forecast that the court would follow
exactly the lines of the Supreme
Court Of the United States. This re-
suit followed not only from the logic
Of the situation but also from the
presentation of the analogy of Amer
ica's court by MT Root. 1t is possi-
Bile that the same results would have
been reached without the presence of
Mr.. Root but it cannot be doubted
that they were greatly expedited"

By DdUid Laurence.
Special Correspondent Of The Even

WASHINGTON, July 30 Copy
right 1s2O).-Both the Repub-
ltcan and Democratic candidates
FOR the Presidency may talk as
they like concerning the League u
Nations as an issue in the present
campaign, but evidences are multi
plying that the United States will
within a year be q member of THE"
League of Nations as provided for BY
the Treaty of Versailles.
Senator Harding may keep his posi-
ton ambiguous in order to keep tho
votes of the Hiram johnson following
and Gov. Cox may talk about
reservations in order not to ALLEVIATE
the people who didn't like Mr.. Will
sons inaistenoe on an unqualified
treaty, but the presence Of Elihu Root
and Dr. James Brown Scott in the
meetings now taking place abroad to
form a Court of International Justice
IS looked upon both in Washington by
International lawyers and abroad by
diplomats and statesmen as the fore
runner of Republican policy in tho
event that Mr. Harding is elected.
Documents which have just come
to the writer from official sources
abroad describe in great detail the
part that Messrs. Root and Scott are
taking in the meetings of the Advisory
Commission of Jurists, who were APP
pointed by the Council Of the League
Of Nations to establish a permanent
court Of international justice.
U. S. THE DOMINATING INFLU-
ENCE AT HAGUE CONFERENCE.
That the United States" says one
OF these documents, though not a
member fthe League of Nations,
should have a dominating influence
IN the formation of the permanent
court OF international justice which
IS to be the cornerstone of the League,
Is the great anomaly of the meetings
being held at The Hague. 1t is both
unexpected and unusual that a ma
lion which has so seriously damaged
ne idea of the League of Nations
should, nevertheless. see its own
Viewpoint and experience largely
predominant In one of the most vital
fields of activity of the League.
THE reason is not far to seek. It
les in the personality of two men
lGHhu Root, former Secretary of State,
md James Brown Scott, former So
'.citor Of the state Department and
low head Of the Carnegie Endowment
ror International Peace at Washing
On. To theirN tact and judgment is
,iue much of the direction which the
y'hole committee Is taking as we'll az
he fact that the court which eventu-
ally evolves from the deliberations
lere will be a court wholly in line with
American ideals and experience.
These two men hold in the mknia
VI European jurists a unique position,
II cannot be too strongly emphasized
that they do not represent the United
states Government in any sense, for
they have been appointed directly by
the Council OF the League Of Nations
on the basis of their very high stand
ing among the leading jurists Of the
world. They are therefore on the
same footing as the other members OF
