bODDY WITHDRAWS
 OFFER TO CONFESS
Negro Murderer Fails in Attempt
 to Bargain for Life

New York. Aug. 31--Luther Boldly the young Harlem negro condemned to die at Sing Sing tonight for killing Detective Sergeants Buckley and Mil Ter, offered confessions to District At Itorney Banton explaining a mum Der lof murders in Harlem, but dramatical- ly withdrew his offer at the warden's office in Sing Sing yesterday, when he was informed that no bargain for a reprieve or communication of sentence would be entertained.
 The promise of a confession im- plicating several other murderers was made by Boldly through Father Will liam E. Cashin. Catholic chaplain at the prison Boldly was also suspected of having been connected with other murders in Harlem.
 MT Banton said he was prepared to get in touch with Governor Miller and seek a reprieve if the information furnished by Boldly warranted it, but that he suspected Boddy's offer was merely an excuse to gain time. On that account MT. Banton sent Assist ant District Attorney John R. Hennis to Ossining with directions not to bargain or promise anything to Boddy, but to listen rb any statement the condemned man had to make.
 Boldly, whose nonchalant demeanor had suddenly deserted him, was sober and subdued when he was taken from hts cell in the death-house and led to the prison offices by the principal keeper There Boldly sought how ever, to lay down conditions on which his explanation of the series of liar lem crimes should be explained.
 q am instructed to tell you" re- piled Assistant District Attorney Hen his, that the district attorneys of fee can not promise to seek a re- prieve for you or make any promise or bargain at all. If you have state ment to make, we will be glad to re- ceive it. But we can offer you noth- ing in return
 Boldly hesitated moment and then laughed.
 "So that's the way you feel about it." he said. Yesterday I was sorry and willing to talk, but not now"
 Shaking his head, he turned to the keeper and said:
 Let's go, P. K"
 Boldly was led back to his cell, | probably having thrown away his last chance to negotiate for an extension of life.

MINE FIRE IS OUT,
 RESCUERS TOLL ON
Some Experts Think Entombed
 Men May Live

Jackson, Calf, Aug. 3i.-Fire in the shaft of the Argonaut gold mine in the lowest reaches, of which 47 miners have been imprisoned since Sunday Is out, but that fact brought no nearer hope for releasing the men alive. The heat In the shaft Is 50 in- tense flame may break out again at any moment and at earlist it would be i've days before entrance to the mine could be gained through 1t. Rescuers Work Hard. ] Rescue teams still battle furiously today to open up three routes to es- cape from the pitch black, smoke choked underground mine shaft to the sunlight and open air where tor tured lungs might drink deep of fresh breezes.
 Two were through passages which workers are endeavoring to cut from the Kennedy an adjoining mine, while the third was through the shaft of the Argonaut itself.
 Terrible Handicap.
 A second rescue corps on a level 300 feet below the group that has worked since Monday borrowing from the $500 foot level of the Kennedy mine toward the Argonaut. 4,s0o level today made perceptible progress. It will be long siege through 500 to 500 feet of loose dirt before 149 foot fall of solid slate is reached.
 Three hundred feet above them toll and sweat the half naked workers who have drilled in brief shifts since Mon- day to cut through more than TOO feet of loose dirt and timber and 30 feet of hard rock. They struck cave-in last night. slowing their prog ress They estimated there would be between 99 and 100 feet more of rock and dirt to be cleared.
 Announcement that the flames were subdued added hope to the gray-faced groups at the entrance of the pit and gave new strength to the grim work CTS battering at the rock walls in subterranean passages
 Hope Still Entertained
 Rescue workers descending the shaft this morning got as far as the 2.400 foot level in mine skips and went 100 feet further on ladders. They found the smoke greatly dimin- shed The water pipes at the side of the shaft still were hot to touch. at tn 2,5oo foot mark was 10 degrees hotter than 60 feet | 'bove. But there was little gas.

BROADWAY OUT OF
 THEATRICAL SLUMP
Ticket Agencies Report Increased
 Sales With Boom Ahead

New York Aug. 31.-The turn in
 the theatrical tide has set in, follow
 ing the slump in the amusement bus
 mess for the past year and a half
 Leading theatrical managers eX- pressed the conviction yesterday from the booming conditions which Broad
 way has already shown this early that
 very good season Is ahead, one
 which is much better than the past
 year, which was characterized as the
 worst in theatrical history.
 The Hippodrome which Is generally
 regarded as the barometer of condi- tions in the theater. has shown the
 largest advance sale for it's opening in several years during the last week.
 At the box office there it was said
 that the buying has jumped IS to 20
 per cent over the same sale last year. The large motion picture houses on Broadway crowded with patrons just when if appeared that the public was losing interest in the movies, indicate that business has increased by the same per cent.
 The ticket agencies which are very sensitive registers of general condi- tions, considered that the lowering of the price sale to the pre-war s2.5o standard, which seems to be e-estab- lished for most dramatic shows, with a s3 scale for some musical shows, was an important factor in stimulat- ing the return of the public to the theater. A representative of Mo- Brides said Ticket buying has in- creased so much that it looks like good season.
 Lee Shubert pointed out that busi- ness is not ordinarily so good thus early in the year.
 "Of course. theatrical managers are optimistic, he said, other wise we wouldn't be In the business. But quite good shows seem to have been produced so far, in comparison to those lats fall, and the public seems to be getting back in the habit of going to the theater often. Busi- ness in other lines has picked up, | moreover Another reason. think is that vaudeville has been stimulated | by competition, and better shows are being given here. Good weather this summer has helped very much also. 1t looks like very big ear"
 Sam H. Harris, president of the Managers association, and Charles Dillingham; also predicted bet CT times in the theater. Florenz ,iegfeld, Jr, has been in the Cana Han woods during the last week, but lis general manager, Sam Kingston, pointed out that the "Follies," the ,arometer of summer theatrical con- litions, has not had an empty seat ince it opened. Brock Perberton aid the proof of reviving interest Is hat now manager can sell out his ouse for an opening night whereas ast year that never happened,
 The first sign in an improvement in ttendance came this summer in the tock companies. The Actors Equity ssociation keeps in close touch with uch organizations throughout the ountry and yesterday Paul Dulzell, ,ssistant executive secretary, said the trike situation was the only cloud head. In all the film palaces on broadway receipts during the last 1onth have risen IS to 20 per cent. yer last August, according to John :. Finn, an executive of the Famous Corporation.

Pittsburgh, Aug. 21.-So far as being molested by the police is con- cerned, women may smoke in the streets of Pittsburgh if they wish, but if they do they will drop in the es- timation of Police Superintendent Cal houn.
 There isn't any law preventing women smoking in the streets" he said, but I believe our Pittsburgh girls think too much of themselves to do anything so common. A girl who would do that wouldn't do it for any pleasure she would get out of it, but simply to be bold and shock other people.
