Sue sat down with the envelope still in her hands. It was one of her own envelopes which she had mailed to Jack. It had com e back, unopened, with a purple-red stamp on the front, saying that there was no one by that name at the address.
 Jack moved and not told her? Cer- tainly not! Had something. hap pened to him? He hadn't written for two weeks now. He wouldn't have tried to escape her. He knew that she was loyal. But so many things had happened. Jack was so far away =. people could twist tales to suit their own purposes. Maybe he hadn't understood about her ride with Jean and the alias she had given. Maybe he had dis covered about the dinner party where she had posed as Dr Barnes fiancee and been suspected of roo bery. Still his letters hadn been stopping just about that time.
 - Sue looked through the other envelopes, after a startled second. She found another one of her let ters that had been returned. Two of them. Maybe he had received the others. Quite probably not, though.

FOG SHROUDS
EASTERN COAST
Shipping, Rail, and Motor
Traffic Near StandStiII.

By United Press
NEW YORK, May Am i'm
penetrable fog, the worst in more
than a year, enveloped the north
Atlantic coast today, bringing ship
ping almost to a standstill and caus-
ing at least one marine accident.
The fog blanketed the entire New
Jersey coast and reached as far
north as Boston. Automobile and
railway traffic was seriously af-
fected and no large ships were
moved in, New York harbor.
Coast guardsmen and marine po-
lice were searching Norton Point
near Segate, N. Y, for a mysterious
ship, apparently in distress. Resi-
dents near the shore said whistle
had been sounded at regular in
tervals since 4 a. m. They reported
the whistle as sounding like that on
a large liner and said she sound
came from just a short distance Off
shore.
The only collision reported was
that of the Lloyd Sabaudo liner
COnte Biancomano and the F'urness
liner Eastern Prince, off Ambrose
lightship. The liner was proceeding
down stream slowly when it col
lided with the freighter.

BRAND SCORES
GREAT VICTORY
Election to Presidency of
France Seems Assured.
BY RALPH HEINZEN,

eloquence repulsed a bitter attack
on his conciliatory foreign policy
today and won an overwhelming
parliamentary victory, which may
paradoxically, end the foreign min
ister's long career at the quai
d'orsay.
BRAND. with the word peace" on
his lips, appeared certain Of election
to the presidency of France next
week.
The chamber of deputies heard
him defend his foreign policy in a
stirring reply to his political critics
and voted confidence in the gov
ernment's foreign policy, 430 to 81
A second vote, 470 to none, con-
demned the Austro-German tariff
union agreement as detrimental to
international understanding.
Election to the presidency, how
ever, would remove BRAND from
the foreign Office for the first time
in six years Except for brief inter
walls after cabinet crises and would
diminish the influence of one of
the most prominent figures in Euro
pean politics since the World war.
The power of the French presi-
dent is restricted, although BRAND
still would be able to exert indirecs
influence by virtue of his selection
of premiers and otherwise.
His most likely successor would
be Andre Tardieu, former premier
and once pupil of the late Georges
,Clemenceau.

This was particularly vocal in the

TROOPS STAND
PREPARED FOR
MINERS CHARGE
Renewal of Hill Warfare
Threatens MomentariIy
in Kentucky.
BY FOSTER EATON
United Press san CORRESPONDENTS

EVARTS. Ky. May 9.-Sullen
groups Of unemployed miners lott
cred on street corners and in their
union meeting place here today.
While 400 national guardsmen
camped in the battle-scarred foot
hills Of the southeastern Kentucky
coal fields, both silently anticipating
momentarily renewal of disorders
which already have claimed five
lives.
Presence Of the guardsmen. under
command of Colonel Daniel NJ. Car
rel Of the One hundred thirty
eighth field artillery. has had a
quieting effect upon the restless
miners, but there is a distinct air
of broOding trouble caused by deep
rooted animosities.
On Side of Miners
Factions are aligned in two
groupS-busineSs men and mine
owners. who demand peace, and IN
employed miners, who demand rec
ignition of their union The trou-
bic grew out Of efforts of the United
Mine Workers OF America to Or
ganize the mines here Thus far,
not an owner has granted the union
recognition.
Ciy officials. Police Chief Asa Gu
sick and assistant Chief A. L. Ben
son aligned themselves openly on
the side Of the miners and blame
publicly the mine guards" for the
disorders.
Sheriff Johnson Henry Blair Of
Harlan. the county seat, while de-
nying that he is affiliated or aligned
with the mine owners, blames what
he terms "reactionary' and left
wing" union WORKERS for the trou-
bleS.
Denies Reds to Blame
Many public officials deny the
charges by Blair and Governor Elem
D. Sampson that Communists are
at the bottom Of it all"
Colonel Carroll emphatically de-
MES he has found any evidence Of
Communistic activities. Mine own
ers blame the i'll feelings on the
depression and the adverse freight
rates. which they insisted made any
further concessions out Of the ques-
ton
Some Of the mines are averag-
ing two and one-half days work a
week. One miner expressed the gen.
eral Ooi'''00 of the entire group
when he said:
If I'm Song to starve. I'd rather
do it sitting right here on this rail-
road track than work for the privi-
lege"

SCATTER
FRENCH BORDER
FORT SECRETS
Protection Plans Barred to
European Powers by
Alien Labor.

BIZ United Press
PARIS, May 9.-Every trench,
every machine gun pillbox, under
ground hospital or barracks, and
strategic roadway in Frances great
wall along the eastern and south
eastern frontiers, opposite Italy and
Germany, has been known to the
general stats Of half a dozen ma
tions OF Europe as fast as the
French engineers pour their con-
crete.
Europe's greatest spy organiza-
tons, keyed up to the largest task
since the war, has seen to it that
the secret frontier organizations
are no lnoger anybodys secret.
French police have been spending
the last week seeking to learn just
how much the Strasbourg spies re-
ported to their foreign employers
and they have been astonished at
their findings.
Plans Disappear
The police learned that of 700 Ia
borers engaged in building the ma
jor unit Of the defense system on
the plateau of Augevillers, only
eleven were French. The others
were German, Italian, Polish and
Russian, and there was no control
over them
When starting work the foreign
workers were asked to surrender
their passports. But dozens have
suddenly left the job and disap-
peared without asking either for
their pay or their passports. Police
learned of another who earned $50
a week and spent twice that much
every Sunday in the cafes of Thion-
vile.
Police went through the fortif1ca-
tons in process of building, at
night, and found men everywhere
who disappeared in the darkness st
their approach. Plans Of the for
tif1cations were handed from one la
borer to another. Many plans dis
appeared entirely.
Doubt Wisdom of Continuing
Police concluded that spies of
OF many nations had worked on the
Notifications and disappeared with
valuable knowledge which has found
its way into the files of many in
telligence services.
Many French military men queS-
ton the wisdom Of continuing the
costly undertaking, pointing out
/ that half of the value of the great
WALL was in the secret nature OF
its arrangement and defenses.
Ten thousand workmen have been
at work 0 lnthe great chain of de-
tense and the undertaking is to last
five years and cost more than $780,
100000. -Four times in little more
than a century France was invaded
from the northeast, and the wall
was intended to hold back invaders
pending mobilization of the French
| army.

DEMOCRATIC primary election
II in 1882, from all indications,
viii be a lawyers only affair. IN
cumbentS probably will be renom-
mated for all county offices, al
though there is some talk Of oppo-
sition to Fred Vehling, county cor
oner, who was under fire recently
The only Office for which it seems
there viii be a real fight among the
Democrats is that Of circuit judge
1t appears to be a foregone con-
clusion that the incumbent, Harry
o. Chamberlin, will seek the Re-
publican nomination without very
strong opposition.
At the present count, at least six
Democrats covet the honor.
n
Heading the list, Of course, is H.
Nathan Swain, county chairman,
who, as was set out Friday, will not
be a candidate again for that post.
Because Of his genial disposition
and the able manner in which he
managed the 1880 campaign, Swain
is assured a great deal Of support
from the outset. Some of his friends
are urging that he forego the race
for the circuit bench and seek the
mayoralty in 1888, but the chair
man would prefer being a judge.
Possibility of a fight for city hall
support looms, as the political Cos
sip indicates that both Edward H
Knight, corporation counsel and
James E. Deery, city attorney, will
vie for the circuit post Knight is
thought to have the inside position,
because he was associated in law
practice with Mayor Reginald H
Sullivan. Deery is said to count
heavily on the prestige and expert
ence he obtained as municipal court
judge.
The aspirant who, it is believed,
ranks with Swain in popularity is
Earl Cox, who enjoys a wide &C
quaintance among Marion county
Democrats and is a weu-known at
torney.
If Cox seeks the post, Thomas E.
Garvin. municipal court judge who
was defeated in the 1880 primary
for the probate bench nomination,
will not become a candidate, al
though he is said to cherish such
ambitions at present.
Cox managed Garvin'S 1880 cam
paign and it is not likely they will
oppose each other in the coming
primary.
City hall attaches during the
Slack administration will be asked
to support Oren Hack, corporation
counsel during that period and for
ner member of the board of works.
With so long list of entrants at
so early a date, it is expected thAs
by primary election time the field
will be narrowed by tradings and
agreements.
Republicans will, of course, fight
for every Office as priority or past
experience won't count when it
comes to filing in a primary.
