Seward stores have the finest stock of goods I have seen on the Northern trip" observed tourist to a Gateway representative this week.

New York State has only a scant
lead as the motion picture playhouse
center OF the United States. It has
1856 motion picture theaters. There
has long been an impression that
Illinois was second in the number,
but this is not the case. Pennsyl-

that position with Illinois third with

By WILLIAM K. HUTCHINSON
Congressman Frank r. Reid
(Rep.), of Illinois, announced this
afternoon he would probably de-
mand a subpoena be issued for
President Coolidge as a witness
in Colonel Billy MitcheIIs court
martial. AS Mitchell's chief civil
ian counsel, Reid declared that
the President had been named By
the War Department as the
ing colonies accuser and prosecu-
tor.
1.-THE accused has the right to
be faced by his accuser," said
Reid. "Under the ruling of the
court and the position taken by

President was the accuser and
prosecutor, we are entitled to have
him confront the accused at this
proceeding.

IF the prosecution doesn't pro-

Moreland was asked.
''The Secretary of War at the in

Moreland replied.
Colonel Blantons Winship, law

this statement as the basis for a

Wrong, Moreland Says.
In his opinion, later confirmed by
the Jury of generals" Winship held
that President Coolidge, as COM
mander-in-chief of the army, was
Mitchell's commanding officer as
required by the army manual.
Moreland, when, questioned this
afternoon, declared he had not
named President Coolidge as Nit

Former Actress Seeks Separ-
alton on. Statutory Grounds,
1t Is Said

NEW YORK, Oct. 3O.The sem
sationaI Stillman case sprang
into the nmelight again today.
Mrs. Anne u stillman, it be-
came known, has begun suit for
divorce from James A. Stillman,
former president of the National
City bank.
The action, it is understood, will
be tried befre referee appointed
bv the supreme court in West
chester county, and will be on
statutory grounds.
The filing of the new suit came
as surprise. 1t has been be-
lieved that the Stillman action
was definitely closed.
Suit Kept Secret
Attorneys for both Stillman and
Mrs. Stillman took every precau-
ton to prevent knowledge of the
suit becoming public.
Stillman could not be found today.
Mrs. Stillman was inaccessible at
Grande Anse, Quebec, fifty miles
from telephone.
In the forthcoming hearing of
the divorce suit it is understood
Mrs Stillman plans to use against
her husband the same evidence that
she adduced against him when he
sued her for divorce and named
Beauvais. an Indian guide. as CO.
respondent.
At that time Mrs. Stillman met
her husbands accusations OF mis-
conduct with Beauvais by charging
him with misconduct with Mrs.
Florence C"F1o'O Leeds, former
chorus beauty.
Other Women Named
Stillman asserted that the Indian
guide was the father Of baby Guy
Stillman, and Mrs. Stillman denied
ii. She countered by alleging her
husband was the father of Mrs.
Leeds son, Jay Ward Leeds.
Later, Mrs. Stillman amended her
answer and named other women as
correspondents.

Missing Marine Lieutenant
May Be on Way to Join
Foreign Legion .

ANNAPOLIS, Nd, Oct. 30
Circumstances which have de-
veloped in the disappearance of
Lieutenant William g.. Faga,
young marine officer, who has
been A. w. o. L. from this station
since October 6, indicate that he
may have been overwhelmed by
the financial burden that he was
carrying and was not able to
face the situation at Annapolis. Z
May Be Off For France
Friends think that it is possible
that his worries unbalanced him.
and it has even been suggested
that he has joined the French
Foreign Legion.
1t is also known that Faga had
been travelling in rather lively cir
cles in Washington and Annapolis
and that his salary as a marine
lieutenant was not sufficient to
meet the financial demands.
1t is certain that he owed con-
siderable money and this is thought
10 have been the chief reason for
ais disappearance.
Had Leave Extended
Faga had been on leave for two
weeks and applied by telephone for
its extension. This was not granted
and he returned to Annapolis, where
he secured a few days more. This
leave was up on October 6, but
Faga did not report, though he
was seen in Washington that day
Since that date October 6, so far
as is known, Faga has not been
seen by any of his friends or ordi-
nary associates.

Seen Last Night
The man was seen in a pastry
shop on Seventeenth street north
west late last night.
He was using the telephone in
the shop, and apparently in answer
to a query as to who was calling
the man replied:
Baron Won Beaverbrook.
He gave his address at nearby

When the man who called him

very nervous and did not answer
readily to the question put to him
by the man on the other end OF
the wire.
Looked Older
The Baron" looked older than
the pictures held at the Detective

He was dressed not in the fash

He talked in an unmistakable

of his philosophy of life.

The Baron" is also wanted in

Part of the jewels and furs taken

to the police.
