DETECTWESFA|L' ,
 TO. FIND. SMALL
Man Believed to be Missing Canadian Located; Not
 Rich Theatre Owner

DIES MONIES. Iowa. Aug. 15.-The disappearance of Ambrose J. Small from his Canadian home is as much mystery as ever, so far as any clue developed in Des Moines is concerned. He is not here, as announced by pri- vate detectives, nor is he believed to have been here since his sudden dis appearance in December, 1919.
 The man the detectives said they believed to be the Toronto theatre owner was located at the Polk poor farm late today by newspapermen. He is John Daugherty, a helpless man without a home. Daugherty suffered the loss of both legs when run over by a train in Des Moines on Decem- Der 4, 1917. He has been patient at the poor farm since early in 1919.
 It is assumed that the habeas cor pus proceedings instituted by Chief of Police Saunders against John J. Bro phy and Frank Harty. the private de tectives, will be dropped.

DOLLY MASON' .IS FOUND LIN COAST
Girl Denies Knowing High tower or Having Knowl-
 ledge of Murder

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.5"Dolly Mason," the woman who, William HightOwer told the police, gave him the information that led to the re- covery of the body of Rev. Patrick Heslin, murdered Catholic priest, to- night flatly denied Hightower's asser- tions. The woman's real name is Mrs. Dorothy Clifford. She said she had been also known as Dolly Ma son.
 MrsA Clifford said she could not rec ollect ever having seen or spoken to Hightower. Hightower had said he talked to her on the street here and according to police, identified Mrs. Gifford's photograph as that of Dolly Mason" She declared she never had been in Salt Lake City, although High tower said he was in that city with Dolly Mason"
 Mrs. Clifford fits the description of the woman Hightower asserts told him of information obtained rom d drunken foreigner which finally led Hightower to search the sands of Sal ada Beach and eventually lead police to the priests grave
 Mrs. Clifford said she was anxious to confront Hightower personally in connection with his assertions.
 Hightower rested today in the Red wood City jail, after days of strenu- ous examination by the authorities of San Mateo and San Francisco coun- ties. His examination win be >resum- ed tomorrow, District Attorney Frank lin Swart Of San Mateo county. said
 Workmen under the direction of Constable A. S. Landini of Colma. late today unearthed number of 30- 30 caiibre rifle shells, on the beach near where the priests body was found.

FRANCE NAMES l. BRAND CHIEF
 IF DELEGATION Selection of Premier Gives Assurance of Conference
 Being Strong Conclave APPROPRIATION ASKED U. s. to Furnish $200,0O0 as
 Primary Cost of Bringing Powers Together

WASHINGTON, Aug 15. = (By the Associated Press.) - The hope of American officials that the disarma- ment conference will be diplomatic conclave of the first order was strengthened today when France in- formed the state department that she would send her premier, Aristide Briand, at the head of her delegation of diplomats.
 The decision is expected here to be followed by similar moves by other powers, investing the gathering with extraordinary significance and giving it much of the plenary authority that was possessed by the council of heads of states" at Versailles.
 The French notification came in the form of message from Premier Briand himself, transmitted through the American embassy at Paris, say ing merely that the premier would take pleasure in personally represent ing his country at the conference. IL was the first formal acceptance to be received from any of the invited na- tions.
 Meantime, the administration S preparation of it's own part in the conference was advanced by a request sent to congress for an appropriation ot $20O,O0O as an initial budget to pay expenses of the American representa- tives and of a secretariat general. The estimate, worked out by the state department and the budget bu- reau, was taken under committee con- sideration immediately in the senate and probably will receive favorable action in the near future.
 The sum fixed in the request and the data accompanying it apparently disposed of any expectation that this government would pay expenses of any of the visiting delegations for con- gress was informed specifically that the money was to be used for the American delegation and for the sec retariat general alone It was indi- cated that later appropriation would be asked should the printing bill ex- ceed expectations, or should the con- ference last more than two months.
 In making the request, President Harding merely transmitted, with his approval, letter written by Under secretary Fletcher, of the state de partment, who has been placed in charge of physical arrangements for the conference and who prepared his estimates after a conference with Di. rector General Dawes, of the budget bureau. There was no attempt to di- vide the sum into separate items. In the senate, it is likely that the request ed appropriation will he attached tC the shipping board appropriation bill

 Than Original Plans
FINAL VOTE SATURDAY
Measure Will be Taken Up For Consideration at
 Eleven Tomorrow

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-(By The Associated Press.) - The administra- tion tax revision bill was laid before the house body in conference today after the Republican membership ot that body in conference had changed it so as to make repeal of the excess profits tax and the income sur-taxes in excess of S2 per cent, effective next January l instead of last Jan uary 1.
 This change, on the basis. of pre- vious treasury estimates, would re suit in the corporations and ndivid uals with large incomes payng to the government in the next calendar year something like $200,000,000 more than they would have paid had the administration plan of making the re- peals retroactive prevailed.
 Total tax reductions for this fiscal year under the bill as revised were estimated by some majority members of the .wass and means committee at $35O, 100000 as against approximately $550. .000, ,0O0 planned by committee Re publicans, and the total tax yield at about $3,20O,000.

DAHL EIREANN WILL NOT TAXI:
 UP PROPOSALS
 FUR TWO DAYS
Delay Provides Opportunity ForMany Things to Take
 Place Before Decision EXCITEMENT IS TENSE All Ireland Anxious to Hear Decision of Parliament;
 May Resume Warfare

 Instead of immediately taking up the problem of peace orewar the Sim Fein parliament will spend at least two days in dealing with the formaIi- ties incident to the opening of the new legislative body, thus providing an opportunity for many things to han per. behind the scenes.
 All Ireland is eager for a decision by the parliament on the British gov ernment's terms, whether it be accep- tance Of them, the expression Of a de- sire for further negotiations. or re- jection. in order to remove the tense excitement which exists.
 The belief prevails that rejection would mean resumption, on an in- tensified scale when the truce ends. or the guarillai warfare that so long terrified the country.
 Dublin Castle views prolonging of the sessions of the Dali Eireann in various lights. One section Of the British government forces expresses fear that delay in immediately acting on the troublesome questions at issue may provoke the military, which is declared not to be hopeful of a favor able settlement, into making prepara- tions for eventualities
 The other section, however. ad- vances the opinion that the longer the members of the Dali Eireanu are in debate, the greater will be the chance for acceptance of the imperial govern ment's terms. These persons affect to see bright spot in prolonged session. arguing that one day-would be sufficient to end the negotiations if the republican cabinet so desired.
 From all parts of the country mem bers of the parliament gathered today to attend the sessions of the body up- on the decisions of which so much is at stake Many of ther~ had been re- leased from prisons or internment by order of the imperial government that i they might lend their voice to the de Alterations: others had been actively engaged with the Irish republican ar my unt0 the truce ended the strife. when they returned to civil life.

CLEVELAND. Aug. 15.- The call for the referendum of all the mem- bers of the Big Four" railroad broth erl q ,ds and the Switchmen's Union of North America to determine their attitude on wage reductions ordered by the United States railway labor board, under which they have been working since July l, may bes issued before the end of this week, accord ing to officials of the railroad broth erhoCds here tonight.
 The ballots for the referendum must be sent out to the membership before September 1. James Murdock, vice president and acting head of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen during the illness of President w. C.. Lee. said tonight.

 A statement outlining the attitude of the chief executives of the five or ganizations may be issued before the end of the week The situation hinges, not so much on the average twelve per cent reduction already or dered, but on rumors that the rail. roads would seek further reductions, the elimination of time and one half pay for overtime, and the revision of schedules and working rules.
 tho railroads nrnnnSn fn on ahead and upset all we have gained through years of negotiation and elim mate time and one half pay and other workine rules and conditions, no pow CT on earth can hold the railroad men cf the countrv." President Lee of the trainmen, said in a recent interview.
 Acting on the instructions of the conference of general chairmen in Chicago on July 1, the brotherhood chiefs are holding conferences with railway executives in each of the four regions established by the interstate commerce commission. They are put ting up to them these four proposi- tions:
 That the wage reduction already or dered be recalled and the old rates of pay restored.
 That no reduction be required or souPht.
 That no effort shall be made to take time and one half pay away from their members.
 That for a fixed period no attempt be made. to cancel or change present schedules or working rules.
 Executives of the eastern railways. after a confluence between their com mittee and the brotherhood chiefs, re- iected all these propositions last Thursday <
