DOYLE SAYS SP00K
HAS WARD SECRET
Creator of Sherlock Holmes
Would Let SpirituaIist
Solve Mystery.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. June 24.-A spiritual
ist detective might solve the mystery
which surrounds the shooting OF
Clarence Peters by Walter s. Ward,
in the opinion of Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle, spiritualist and creator OF
Sherlock Holmes.
Il am positively certain" said Sir
Arthur, before sailing for England
today on the Adriatic, that in many
mysteries of this kind phychic,
has reconstructed the picture Of the
tragedy and has been able to put the
police in the way of solving it.
Something of chat sort might be
expected if a psychic were to be
called in. He might not be able to
build a picture of the causes which
led to the shooting, but 1 am certain
exactly what conditions Peters met
his DEATH"
Sherlock Holmes Mystery.
Sir Arthur said he had not studied
the Ward ease from a Sherlock
Holmes point of view," because he
has not had time.
II should like to, however," he
added, smilingly, because it would
be an. ideal Sherlock mystery"
How would Holmes go about solv-
ing it,? Sir Arthur was asked.
We'll, that's a bit too difficult," he
replied. But am Of the impression
he would confine his attentions to
the Ward family alone, leaving the
actual murder to unravel itself after
the blackmail mystery was solved"
It was then that Sir Arthur, with
an excited CLEAN in his eyes. said
that a combination Sherlock Holmes
and spiritualism would be of great
value in bringing facts out in the
would have good chance of reach
ing the solution.
Tells Of Uncanny Solutions.
V Sir Arthur told of instances in Lon
don life in which solutions to mys-
teries seemed uncanny and claimed
that although spiritualism never really
received the credit, 1t actually won the
solution In most cases.
Referring to his visit, Sir Arthur
said: "The biggest minor impression
I'm carrying away Is one that hit me
In the eye when I arrived. 1t is the
change in the New York police since
I was here twenty-eight years ago.
'.Then they were big, red-nosed.
heavy-stomached men, looking as II
their main duty was to hunt liquor,
now they are trim, athletic men, Yho
look like real policemen"
Just before the Adriatic sailed, a
man rushed into the Doyle state
rooms with huge box. 1t was
opened. A kingsnake, three feet long,
was taken out. And little Billie
Doyle, the eight-year-old girl, took
It, wrapped At around her neck and
began to jump happily about the
rooms. The snake came from Ray

A. F. of L. Calls on All to

By the Associated Press.

CINCINNATI. June 24.-Adoption
of a program calling for . non-par-
tfsan political campaign this fall to
elect the friends Of organized labor
and an overwhelming defeat Of the
radical forces that favored recognf-
ton of the Russian soviet government
marked the closing session today Of
the American Federation of Labor
convention.
I.abor's political stand was adopt
ed without discussion, including q
resolution calling on all union men
and women to enter more actively
into politics, with the purpose Of
cry of our national government" by
capturing the republican and demo-
cratic parties; but the Russian ques-
tion stirred up spirited debate that
was ended only on account of the
parliamentary maneuvering of yes
terday having shut off the flood Of
oratory.
President Gompers, in n formal
statement tonight, declared the ac-
ton on the Russian question was of
especial significance" because mot
a single local union has been over
looked by the propagandists for So
Wet brutality and autocracy." Final
pleas both for and against the so
Wet brought a sharp divergence of
opinion in the convention, but the
administration forces took the heart
out of the soviet's friends when the
milton failed of adoption on an oral
vote and a roll call was lost when
only twenty-five delegates support
ed the demand for one. Pressing on
FROM this victory, the administra-
ton forces moved the adoption of a
resolution. reaffirming the fedora
tion's stand against the soviet, and
the motion carried without an ef-
fort to force a record vote.
Urges Political Activity.
The federation's political campaign,
as favored by q committee report
that was adopted, provided that the
general conduct of the campaign
should be left to the executive COM
mittee of the federation. As = sup
plement of the report, was a resolu-
ton, introduced by the Shawnee,
OKLA, trades assembly, which was
adopted, calling for all union men
and women to become active In the
precinct, county, state and national
conventions Of the two big political
parties.
The approach Of sine die adjourn
ment apparently, made the delegates re-
rain from debate, and finally they
hurried the end by directing that all
unfinished committee reports be in
corporated in the convention proceed
inks, and II any required action that
such be taken by the executive coun-
Gil. This was regarded as tanta-
mount to blanket Endorsement of the
committee reports, the only one OF
Importance that was not presented
being that of the special policy COM
mittee on industrial court laws. which
was certain to condemn such legisla-
tive enactments.
Hurry Through BsslnesA
Aside from the, political and the
Russian questions. the convention
disposed of q mass Of miscellaneous
business in o hurried fashion. For
the seventeenth time tie claam Of jusas-
dictior Of the glass workers over the
making Of molds for glass containers
was anarmed by the SAnvention. the
decision being against the rnaehinists.

Small. The governor said his infor-
nation indicated that law and order
had been restored by the local au.
thorities and that the situation was
quiet.
The miners union seems to run
things there, with the consent of the
other mine owners" Gov. Small OBJ
served to newspaper men.
Gen. Black asked Gen. Foreman
whether. in his opinion. the reports
of Col. Samuel N. Hunter and Robert
Medill, director of mines and-minerals
whose recall from Herrin had been
rumored, had been correct.
Gen. Foreman replied that the re-
ports reflected the general opinion OF
the people in Herrfn. He added that
II the miRe operators attempted to
send men into Herrin to look after
their property and repair the ma
chinery dynamited by the mob Thurs
day. 1t will provoke further trouble
and troops will be necessary.
He said the states attorney and
sheriff would look after the burial OF
the dead non-union workers.
The trouble started last Wednesday
when two. union men, who had gone
to the mine to induce the non union
workers to leave, were killed by mine
guards. Gen. Foreman said. The mine
company, he reported, had established
road patrols and halted everybody ap-
preaching the property. States At

'Do you think the sheriff has per-
formed his duty to the best Of his
ability" Gen. Black asked Gen. Fore

II think the sheriff has very little
ability and no suts." Gen. Foreman
replied. He added he had arranged
with q responsible Citizen to notify
the ad1utant general at the first sign
OF further trouble.

Japan's definite decision to evacu-

Omcial Announcement.
The official announcement of ST.
berian evacuation says:
1.-The japanese government has de-
cided to withdraw all troops from the
maritime province of Siberia by Oc-
tober 80. Suitable measures will be
taken for the protection of Japanese
residents"
. An official Of the foreign office,
commenting on the decision to quit
Siberia, said:
TT has been a matter of regret
that various circumstances prevented
Japan carrying out her desire to with
draw her troops from Siberia.
Tt cannot be said that political
conditions there have attained full
stability, but a change has occurred
in the general conditions of the whole
of Russia. Communistic measures
seem to have been modified. The
powers have altered their attitude to-
wards Russia, as attested by the in
vitations to the soviet government to
attend the Genoa and The Hague con-
ferences and conclusion Of non-ag-
gressive and non-propaganda agree
ments with Moscow. These latter
promise to improve relations between
the powers and the soviet govern

"In view of the decisions Japan
has decided to carry out her original
idea to evacuate Siberia.
Japan believes that with this re-
moval of the Chita governments
cause for suspicion the far eastern
republic Of Siberia will strive to reach
a commercial agreement with Toxic"
In conclusion the foreign office Of
fetal declared:
Japan also believes that this with
drawal. together with Japan's con-
cilfatory attitude at the Washington
conference, will be understood by the
world as evidence that Japan is a
non-aggressive nation, striving to
maintain the peace of the world"
