in the Foreign Quarter Of
That City.

Detroit. Oct. iS-while federal
agents were questioning man giving
the name of Bob Cunningham, de-
tained in Toledo on suspicion of con-
nection with the mail robbery here last
Friday, police to-day instituted rig
orous search Of all foreign quarters Of
the city for the four bandits. The
first clue to their identity was OBJ
tanned yesterday when trunk con-
tanning the mutilated mail sacks and
rifed envelopes was found in an alley.
Finger prints taken from the envel-
opes and the trunk were expected 10
aid the officers.
Police were unable to identify Cum
ningham by that name and said the
fact a coin bag bearing the name Of
the National Bank of Commerce mere
was found on his person might not
connect him with the mail robbery.
They pointed out that none OF the reg
istered packages stolen contained mon
ey shipments TO that bank.
Carl Grebe. arrested Saturday on
technical charge Of violating the Unit
ed States code, was still in custody
to-day.
All of the stolen mail pouches had

planned, because Of the failure of the
British war Office to fix date for the

Such explanations of the delay on
the part of the war office to fix the
time when the United States formally
could honor Great Britain's war dead
would appear to indicate that the Brit
ish government did not have time to
make the arrangements for the cere-
mony. Washington advised London
early in August Of the details of the
plan, but it is said many British min
listers. have been out of the city and
have otherwise been so busy that they
have been unable to give the situa-
tion the attention it demanded.
General Pershing will sail for the
United States on Oct 20. and the in

fieient to permit him to carry out his
plan of going to London.

WASHINGTON NOT Alarmed.
Over the Alleged Slight to United
States and Pershing.

Washington. D. c., Oct. l0.-State
and war department officials were
without advices today from Paris or
London in connection with General
Pershing's decision to return to the
United States, leaving to Major Gem
eral Allen, commanding American
forces on the Rhine, the task of plac-
ing the medal of honor voted by Con-
gress on the tomb of the British un-
known dead in Westminster Abbey.
Secretary Weeks said it was not
necessary that General Pershing should
report his decision as his instructions
did not specifically include trip to
London.
There was no intimation that fail
ure of the British to invite General
Pershing to London had created any-
thing in the nature Of an incident. No
formal notice was sent to the Brit
ish government, 1t was said at the
state department, that General Persh-
ing carried the medal voted for the
British memorial tomb. The Ameri-
can embassy in London was instructed
to inform the British authorities that
Congress had voted such decoration
and that il would be bestowed at a
time convenient TO the British govern
ment.
Secretary Weeks said that General
Pershing's decision to return was
prompted by the fact that the gov
ernment desired him TO be in the Unit
ed States by Nov. 10.
