~ BODIES FOUND
IN BUILDING WRECK
More Victims Are Sought in
Ruins of Boston
Dance Hall.
BY the Associated Press.

BOSTON, July 6.-With the recov-
cry of four more bodies early today
from the ruins of the building which
housed the Pickwick Club, night life
resort, the list of known dead from
the collapse of the building in the
early morning Of July had reached
A when District Attorney Thomas c.
O'Brien opened a grand jury investi-
CATION of the disaster today. Several
of the victims had not yet been iden-
titled.
The body of Francis j. Driscoll of
Roxbury, one of the four taken from
the debris in the early morning hours,
was identified by a union card in a
pocket of the clothing. He was bust
ness agent of the Plasterers' Union
and had gone to the club to meet an
other union official for a conference,
members of his family said. About
six months ago Driscoll was appoint
ed superintendent of public build
ings by Mayor Curley, but the Civil
Service Commission refused to ratify
the appointment.
Others who were found we're Bart
H. Chapman of Dorchester, Mrs. LII
liam McIsaacs of Roxbury and Miss
Clara NJ Frederick of West Roxbury.
The district attorney had before him
today as the first witnesses a number
of consulting engineers, who were
questioned as to the condition of the
building before the fatal collapse.
Grand Jury at Scene.
The members of the grand jury
visited the scene of the disaster at
noon under the guidance of the Dis
trict attorney. The grand jurors were
admitted to the ruins, where many
workmen were searching for bodies of
victims believed to be still buried and
began a study of the structure of the
wrecked building.
Mayor Curley had paid visit to
the ruins earlier in the day and direct
ed the searchers to demolish parts
of the structure that still remained
standing in the hope that this would
facilitate the recovery of the remain
Ing bodies. The grand jury will hear
witnesses later in the day.
BY this morning searchers had found
nearly all of those about whom this
early morning life had centered.
Ella s" body, Miss Ella Cauley, was
brought out pitifully bruised. In her
dress they found the money for which
she had smiled away the broad
bandyings of the guests that she
might realize her hope of marriage
and a home. Frank Tillo and Neddo
Flanagan, who had won many local
ring battles, were found. Inspector
Benjamin Alexander of the Boston
police, who had thought to add an
other arrest to the several made at
the club, died in the wreck. Some of
the bodies found were of persons pay
ing their first visit to the club, others
were those of habitues.
One man, his wife's picture in the
pocket over his heart, was found in
the dead arms of another woman.
Occasionally a worker picked a bottle

SWAMPSCOTT, Mass, July g.
Reports that President Coolidge
was swimming in the icy waters
of the North Shore, off White
Court, induced a number of curious
men and women each to pay $25
to boatman yesterday to row
them to view the unusual sight.
Presidents seldom are seen in so
unconventional attire as bathing
suit, and the possibility of seeing
Calvin Coolidge splashing noncha-
lantly in the chilly sea was too in
viting to forego. even If it cost SIS
per glance.
Sure enough, as the boat neared
the rocky shore of White Court
the figure of a distinguished-loo
ing man was visible. The bather
cavorted playfully in a small pool
formed by the jutting rocks, div
ing, floating, standing on his head
in the surf and performing other
aquatic feats.
Not until a number of boatloads
had watched the spectacle with i'll
concealed delight did the truth be-
come known. The figure was that

ABD-EL-KRIM REINFORCED
BY DETECTION OF TRIBES
Paris, Pessimistic Over Strife,
Fears Great Onslaught Will
Be Made Soon.
BY the Associated Press


PARIS, July 6.-Supreme comma nd
of the French forces opposing the
Riffians in Morocco is TO be taken
from Marshal Lyautey, the governor
general and intrusted to a general
who will leave France Immediately
for the front.
This decision which is subject to
ratification by the cabinet today, was
reached at a council of war held last
night under the Craftsmanship of NJ.
Painleve, the premier and war min
lister. The step is being taken, it is
explained, to allow Marshal Lyautey
freedom in carrying out his admins
trative and political duties.
GuiIIaumat To Get Post.
The man selected for the post is
understood TO be Gen. Guillaumat, t.,
ommander-in-chief of the allied oper-
ations in the Balkans during the
World War.
The probability of the appointment
of Gen. Guillaumat seemed increased
today when he visited President
Doumergue and Premier Painleve.
His appointment is expected to be
announced by the cabinet this evening.
Dispatches from Fee yesterday rep
resented the situation in a highly pes
simistic light, with wholesale defec-
tions of hitherto friendly tribesmen
and an insufficiency of French troops
to hold the long line against Abd-el-
krim's drives in the direction Of FeZ
and Taxa.
This caused such stir in Paris that
Premier Painleve issued an explana.
tory note declaring that public opin-
ion ought not TO allow itself to be
disturbed by such episodes, which are
customary in colonial wars"
The impression prevails, neverthe-
less. that Abd-el-Krim' offensive is
developing upon a larger scale than
any he has thus far attempted, calling
for drastic action on the part of the
French command.
The French have begun a counter
movement. and this is making con-
siderable headway, according to the
latest advices from headquarters.
Taxa has become the center of in
terest on the Moroccan front. The
tribes north of that city, which pre-
viously have sided with the French,
now have rebelled, throwing their sup
port to Add l-Krim and thus increas-
ing the danger to Fez from the east.
French official circles, however, ex-
press themselves as reassured by the
measures being taken to meet this
new development.

Women and Children Removed From
City by French.

FEZ. French Morocco, July @.-
1t was officially announced today that
the French have removed all women
and children from Taxa as a precau-
ton. Sunday night the French ad-
mitted reverses on the front near Taxa
in the war with Abd-el-krim's Riffians.
The French severely defeated Add
el.Krim's tribesmen in two engage
ments yesterday. The Riffians attacked
near Ain Matouf and Kiffane. They
lost heavily at the first and were rout-
ed at the second place:
The French captured all the arms
and munitions of the attacking tribes
men.
These successes, French officials
said, have produced an excellent effect
on some of the Moroccans whose loyal
ty to THE French has been doubtful of
late.

FRENCH EXPERTS WORRIED.
Are Doubtful OF Abilities TO Keep Fer
From Capture.

BY Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
PARIS, July 6.-Premier Painleve's
conviction that whatever may happen
France will hold Fez is not shared in
certain military quarters which are
keeping in close touch with develop
ments on the Moroccan front.
These observers believe that unless
a powerful counter offensive is started
within a short time the Moroccan sa
cred town may fall into the hands OF
Add -el-Krim, since the Riffian regulars
ready within Is miles of the city.
Lack of Troops Felt.
The critical situation of the French
is due mainly to lack of troops. De
spite the governments good will in
answering Gen. Lyautey's pressing de
mands for more troops and war ma
terials, the reinforcements sent are in
sufficient to cope with the situation
because Ab-el-Krim's military forces
increase with every. new progress OF
his mehallas.
Lately the most trusted tribes have
gone over to Add -el-Krim because the
French, adopting European war tao
tics. have been Withdrawing troops
from the curtain they had established
along the frontier to protect the
tribes, and concentrating them at one
point, from which a great offensive
will be launched as soon as sufficient
reinforcements arrive. The tribes
thus abandoned, fearing Abd-elkrim s
ruthless vengeance, join his forces
and attack the lines of communica
ton of their former defenders.
