Escape Cut Of.
Searchers reported that the escape of
the two men had been cut of and that
they would have been found by this
time If alive. It may be weeks before
their bodies would be discovered, 1t was
said, as smoke from the Smoldering
logs made visibility poor.

Crews battling fires in Wenatchee Ma
tional Forest reported they had made
considerable progress in the last IL
hours and expected to have the Chain
Lake and White Mountain fires under
control in two or three days.
Trenches were being dug around fire
areas and backfires started to keep the
blazes within defined limits. The noun
famous character of the country had
made efforts to control the fires difficult.
Cutting Fire Crews.
Conditions in British Columbia and
on Vancouver Island also were reported
better, and fire crews were being re-
duced in some localities.
More than 1000 men had been mar
shaled to combat the fires in Washing
ton and about 1900 in British Column
bia, making total of $500 fire fighters.
These forces had been reduced some

Virtually all Northern Idaho fires
were reported under control.

WORLD SHIPPING GAINS,
SAYS FEDERAL REPORT
Receivers From Postwar Depres
sion With Less Idle Tonnage
and Higher Rates.

World shipping is recovering from
the postwar depression, with less idle
tonnage today than year ago and ap-
preciably higher freight rates, accord
ing to the transportation division Of
the Department of Commerce. These
developments are based on a normal
growth of oversee trade, the report
states. and therefore likely to be main
tanned.
Due in part to the growing de-
mandS Of overseas trade, in part to the
breaking up OF obsolete vessels" the
report said. "laid-up shipping through
out the world was reduced to a new
low total at the middle of the year
$4,000 gross tons. This figure rep
reSentS a decrease of 1851 900 tons or
90 per cent from the total of a year
ago.
Without exception of any conse-
quence, all countries shared in the de-
crease of idle shipping. The United
States held the lead with reduction of
10000 tons, or Is per cent, a fact
which Is not surprising inasmuch as
the worlds largest idle fleet is in this
country"

DANCERS ROMANCE
ST|RS HOME TOWN
Newton, Kans., Buzzes When
EIeanora Ambrose Phones
Mother of Wedding.

BY the Associated Press.
NEWTON. Kans.. August 17.-Newton
was buzzing again today about the for
tunes of Eleanora Ambrose Mouvet,
widow of the dancer Maurice, whose
marriage at Stamford. Conn, to Sam
KATE, wealthy theater operator, took
place today.
The daughter Of Howard Pickett,
Newton policeman, Eleanora began a
career that has taken her across the
bathrooms of two continents by dancing
to the photograph at her Newton home
and making up her mind to follow more
or less in the steps of her sister, AIDE
laide Ambrose, who achieved a stage
reputation and later entered the pub
fishing business.
Phone Call From East.
Today Mrs. Pickett happily told Of
telephone call last night from Eleanora
who arrived in New York yesterday
after a year of vocal study in Paris
and London. The widow and former
partner of Maurice announced a year
ago that the bathrooms of the world
were haunted by shadows of her huS-
band and that she intended to sing.
"She told me they were to be mar
AlCu OOuayB OAHU NNIOs xuChCIts
didn't ask her where"
Encouraged by her already famous
sister to practice dancing, Eleanora
went to New York eight years ago in
her late teens, to begin an uphill fight
for recognition. She found 1t in the
eyes OF Maurice, just back from a con-
tinental tour, and distressed by the loss
Of his partner, Leonora Hughes, who
had married a South American Million
aire.
Signed as Partner.
Maurice saw Eleanora dance and for
got his troubles. He signed her rs
partner and after successful tours over
q large portion of q pleasure Lowing
globe they were married in Paris in 1926.
The polished floors of French, Swiss and
English bathrooms reflected the dane
ing honeymooners before Mouvet died
at Lucerne, Switzerland, hospital in
May OF 1927, of stomach trouble.
The Puckett girls. as last nights tele-
phone call from New York indicates,
never forgot their parents. For 10
years there have always been phone
calls, kilograms, cablegrams and flowers
arriving at the little cottage here. FIRE.
quent checks have found their way
home, too. and both daughters have
made as many flying visits back as
their busy lives have permitted.

GEORGETOWN. Texas, July %
-(P)-Harry j. Leahys last defense
the insanity plea-against death
sentence for murder was ready for
presentation to district court here

More than 100witnesses, including
alienists for prosecution and de-
fense, were called to testify in the
hearing, granted only a few hours
before the scion Of a pioneer south
west Texas family was to have died
at Huntsville for the murder of DR..

pealed, the conviction was reversed

him the death penalty.

Leahy killed the elderly doctor and
bc.--::ed the body in a shallow grave
for pecuniary gain.
Judge j. D. Moore of Austin pre-
sided the sanity hearing, Judge
Harry Dolan having bcca Gisquali-
