Spiritualist Leader
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle during
the latter part Of his life presented
an heroic and at the same time
somewhat tragic figure. For the
past few years he has devoted vir-
tually all his time to the propaga-
ton of spiritualism. and was rec
ognized as one of the great leaders
or the world in this belief Because
Of his association with this crusade
which he himself characterized as
an unpopular one. he gradually lost
some or his old time literary friends
who saw no virtue i'm spiritualiSm
and who were inclined TO look upon
him as eccentric
It IS not 50 many years ago that
This broad shouldered Viking with
Ills handsome head and shock OF
iron gray hair was the idol OF the
London drawing rooms. As creator
OF Sherlock Holmes and other great
works he was an outstanding figure
in the realm OF literature, and the
world paid him homage
After he embarked on his spirit
ualistic campaign. however. things
changed and he was not 50 much
sought after.
Grieved i'm Last Years
Sir Arthur was grleved because
his friends could not see eye TO eve
with him, but he never wavered IN
his pursuit OF the cause In which he
believed. He ven opened a "psy-
chic bookshop'' and Spiritualistic
museum in Victoria street in the
shadow or Westminster Abbey. Here
he created a center for spiritualis-
tic literature and distributed much
Of ID throughout the world.
Almost daily his huge bulk could
be seen looking over his desk in his
shop. This shop was Doyle's own
idea and 1t proved a costly venture
for him.
Sir Arthur once told the cores
pendent that he spent thousands Of
dollars OF his own money to keep
the shop and the museum open.
Still this adventure did not worry
him. II am in a position TO do It.'

town. The freight loss would be more serious because trains would roll right through the outskirts of Calais on their way to and from Paris.
 This opposition recalls the diff culties the plan has encountered since M. Mathieu proposed it in 1900. Napoleon III first got behind the plan in a serious manner, in 1867.
 A score of times the plan has been before the British parliament. Thousands of soundings have been taken in the channel and the most eminent engineers of France and England have declared the tunnel feasible. Military reasons often affected the idea but less is heard of that aspect year by year.
 In an elaborate report made by a British official commission last year there were mentioned several other plans, all rejected. One was for two parallel dikes across the channel, trains running on the dikes while the water between would be a canal hooked up with the waterways of northern Europe. Another idea was an arched bridge over the channel. A third was the laying of a steel and ce- ment tube on, the channel bed.
 The bridge and dikes were dis carded because among other reasons they would block channel shipping

DRYS WITHHOLD
WITNESS NAMES
Plans Will Be Kept Secret Until
"Wet Fling" Is Over,
Leaders Say.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The drys said today that they would
wait until the wet fling" was over be-
fore making public the witnesses they
intend to marshal before the House
judiciary committee in support of pro-
hibition.
The vets end their presentation of
the dark side of the eighteenth amend
ment Tuesday and the Rev. Edwin C.
Dinwiddie, secretary of the National
Association of Organizations Support
ing the Eighteenth Amendment, in a
statement asserted that the dry plans
will be kept secret until then"
w. w. Atterbury and Pierre S
du Pont. men of influence in the finan-
cial world, have testified at the hear
ings that they thought prohibition q
failure. Reports that the prohibition
lists will counter with Henry Ford, John
D. Rockefeller, jr., and A. p. Sloan, who
are equally prominent in the world OF
business, have been heard in and out OF
the committee room, but Chairman
Graham said today he bad no infor-
nation on dry plans.
Explaining his attitude, Dinwiddie as
serted: we are keeping out of the con-
troVersy until our time to present
witnesses comes"
After the hearings have ended the
seven resolutions before the committee,
some to modify and others to repeal the
eighteenth amendment outright, will be
taken up.
While some said there was little
likelihood that any of the measures
would be reported favorably, Chairman
Graham said he thought the SABBATH
resolution, which would permit the es-
tablishment OF Federal liquor dispen-
saries in States that have no prohibition
laws, was based an a sound principle.

REBEL CHIEF URENA
TO RULE DOMINGO
Departure of President Vasquez for
Health" Arranged to
Satisfy Law.
az the Associated press.

BY the Associated Press.
SANTO DOMINGO, March 1.-Gen.
Rafael Estrella Urena, chief of the In
surgent movement, will become provi-
sional President of the Dominican Re-
public with departure shortly of Pres
ident Vasquez from the country because
of ill health"
President VasqueZ, yielding peaceably
to the six-day-old Insurgent movement,
yesterday agreed to accept resignation
of most of his cabinet and appoint Gen.
Estrella Urena as secretary of interior,
from which post he will succeed to the
presidency as soon as President Vas
quez is out of the country.
Directly after the appointment the
President issued request to the Ma
tional Assembly to permit his leaving
the republic because of i'll health" It
was said that physicians to the Presi-
dent, who recently was forced to fly to
the United States for major operation,
had told him he could not keep up the
strain.
The arrangement, regarded as entire
ly constitutional apparently had the
approval of Charles B. Curtis, American
Minister. who previously had informed
the Insurgents that the American Gov
eminent would not recognize de facto
regime. Gen. Estrella Urena was minis
ter of justice and instruction in the
Dominican cabinet in 1926 and later
was minister to France. He is a law
yer by profession
