Congressmen Greet Each Other
at Pier and Go Down River
to Canal Celebratiion
MANY NOTABLES IN PARTY
Congressman Moore 6hook hands
with Congressman Vare today, and
with several hundred other persons, the
two congressmen went down the Dela
ware river on the steamboat Queen
Anne and took part in a celebration at
Delaware City to mark the taking over
by the federal government of the Chesa
peake and Delaware canal.
Congressman Moore, at Delaware
City, made an address in which he
urged greater development of inland
waterways as an nid to commercial de
velopment of the country.
He emphasized that the next big step
in tho plan to link Maine to Florida
by intcrcoastal canals would un
doubtedly bo the proposed canal ncross
New Jersey, from a point below Tren
ton to New York bay and Long Island
Sound nnd thence through Buzzard's
bay to Boston.
The meeting between Congressmen
Moore nnd Vnre took place at Arch
street pier just before the Queen Anne
started down tho river. The greeting
was cordial.
Congressman Vare, at sight of Con
gressman Moore, extended his hand and
wished the Republican mayoralty nom
inee a pleasant "good morning." It
was the first time the two congressmen
had met since before tho primary elec
tion fight.
Vare Greets Mooro
Congressman Moore arrived nt the
pier shortly after 0 o'clock and stood
chatting with several of his friends
beside the gangplank. A few minutes
later. Congressman Arare, accompunied
by Recorder of Deeds Hazlett, reached
the pier and walked up to Mr. Moore.
"Good morning," said Congressman
Vnre, extending his hand.
Congressman Mooro responded and
shook hands with both men.
"You certainly nre looking fit nnd
fine," said Congressman Moore, ad
dressing Recorder Hazlett.
"Thank you, congressman," ho re
plied. "You don't look much like a
nolitician yourself."
"I never knew that I was until last
night at the Adclphia, when I was told
so by former President Taft," laughed
Mr. Moore.
At this moment the men wcro called
aboard ship. Tho band on the upper
deck of the Queen Anne began to piny
n lively air and the vessel swung away
from the side ot the wharf.
Explains Plans for Future
In his address Congressman Moore
commended tho efforts of the Atlantic
Deeper Waterways Association, of
which ho has been head since its- or
ganization, for its efforts to develop
inland water routes.
Referring to the plan to build a canal
ncross New Jersey, Mr. Moore declared
that when the link, shall be comnlcted
there will have been developed "one of
the finest transportation routes, in all
the world."
Mr. Moore then explained plans of
the government to remove the locks in
the Chesapeake and Dolaware canal
and to deepen tne water to twelve feet.
The celebration nt Delaware City in
cluded'a demonstration of the locklng.of
n boat through tho canal, with the object
of showing how much time will be baved
by the elimination of the locks.

GARFIELD ENTERS DISPUTE
The conference between rcpiesentn
tives of the soft coal miners and oper
ators at the Bellevuo-Stratford came to
an abrupt ending today as a result of a
disagreement
As a result of this disagreement a
joint committee drew up recommenda
tion that the conference no immediately
discontinued, and this report will be
presented when the full conference
meets Inter today.
Just what caused the differences be
tween the two factions on the com
mittee, which resulted in blocking the
convention, could not be learned, but
the action taken will be final, the miners
and opcratois saiiL
Plans for a separate meeting of the
miners attending the conference have
been made, and they will meet imme
diately after the adjournment of the
main committee.
II. A. Garfield, national fuel admin
istrator, sent n letter to the operators,
in which he contended that the war
time contract between the government
nnd the miners was still in force, and
would bo so until a proclamation of
peace was issued, or until April 1, 1020.
For this reason, the administrator
writes, the demands of the miners for
a iivo-dny week' and a six-hour day
cannot be recognized by the govern
ment. It wns announced that coal operators
of tho outlying organized distilcts, com
prising nil coal producing stntes with
the exception of Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana nnd Illinois, whose representa
tives are now meeting at the Bellcvue,
have passed a resolution nt a meeting in
Washington, October 9, at the which
they refused to meet the demands of the
miners.
This meeting, thrpugh its chairman,
P. W. Lukes, has communicated with
the operators represented at the con
ference in this city and promised them
unanimity in action throughout the
country on tho part of the operators.

Belief That "Billy" Dansey Is

Grows
Every church congregation in Ham
monton, N. J., will offer prners to
morrow for the safety nnd lecmery of
two-nnd-a-halt-year-old Billy Dansey.
who has been missing since Wednes
day. The climax of the search for Bill
will come after the services, when nil
of the members of the congregations
and all of the former service men of
that district will begin a quest for
somo clue to tho child's whereabouts,
which will take them over every sec
tion of territory in thnt part of the
county. .
Desplto these preparations it is the
growing belief in the community that
little Billy is dead and that his body
is Ijing hidden somewhere not far from
the town.
A former nrmy officer will direct the
scivicc men in their senrch tomorrow.
ami it is planned to have them visit .
every house in the vicinity nnd ques
tion tho residents for nny information I
which would assist in the senrch for,
Billy. j
Wooded Tract Searched
The search continued today, more
than thirty men, under the leadership
of II. W. White, scouring through the I
wooded tract near Hammonton, into j
which it wus first thought the child !
hnd wandered. F.very part of the tract '
was gone over carefully, but there was,
no trace of Billy.
It was near this wood that Joseph
Prosper, chief of police of Hammonton,
said thnt he saw the footprints of the '
child. But the latest marks which were I
made, according to his statement, were
leading from the woods.
Doylcstown, Pa., police authorities .
are chasing a band of gipsies who
camped near that place last night and
nre said to have a child answering
the description of Billy Dnnsey.
Chief of Police Hendricks, of Doylcs
town, said today that the camp of the
band had been searched yesterday with
out the discovery of a child with light
hair such as has Billy, but a pedestrian,
who passed tho camp later again re
ported tho presence of n child answer
ing that description.
"I never yet saw a gipsy with golden
hair, and I'm going to catch the band
nnd find out who the boy is," the chief
said,
A band of gipsies left Hammonton
before the authorities could reach them.
The band seen near Doylcstown had
horses which hnd evidently been pushed
hard and far during the last few days,
and may be the sume chin thnt was iu
Hammonton.
Hammonton people place little hope
in the gipsy theory, however.
Mother Spurs on Searchers
Attempt of tho community to find the
missing hoy nre being spurred on by
the pleas of the mother, Mrs. Dansey,
who is begging them to search "just a
little longer, until 'Billy' is found."
The father of the child, apparently
dazed, has not ceased in his' search
since last Wednesday. In a despairing
mood he wanders from one group of

MENACE OF RADICALISM !
HELPS PROMOTE HARMONY
Employers Prove Conciliatory,
Admitting Right to Strike,
but Deploring Coercion
By GKORGK ()X McCAIN
Washington. Oi t 11 The icsult of
the first week's session nf the nntlonnl
industrial confeience called by Presi
dent Wilson to ndjust industrial condi
tions nnd allay the general unrest
throughout the country must be re
garded as eminently satisfactory.
To be sure, no action hns been taken
upon any vital subject, but the confer
ence hns been permanently organized,
and nearly all ot the issues which will
come under its consideration have been
presented.
They have, for the most part, taken
the shape of declarations of principles.
Labor, contrary to expectation, led the
way. Suggestions from the people's
group have been offered, and csterday
the employers, who have been very de
liberate, laid their propositions before
the conference.
Flood of Suggestions
The public Is deeply interested in the
work of the conference. Secretnry Lane
hnd on the desk before him just before
adjournment n pile of manuscript six
inches thick, which represented com
munications from nil parts nf the coun
try, with suggestions, plans nnd statis
tics for presentation to the conference.
On the initiative of the socretary of
labor, Mr. Wilson, after the members
hnd argued for ten minutes ns to what
should be done with them, it was de
cided that they should be typewritten
in triplicate and turned over to the
three groups to select or icject, as they
saw tit.
The convention works under theg.'mp
system. If any member has a resolu
tion to offer, it is first submitted to the
group to which he belongs. If his group
approves of it it is then rend to the
conference, nnd, without debate, sent
(o the general committee of fifteen, who
decide whether or not it is worthy to be
considered by the conference ns a whole.
Lane Speaks for Wilson
The power of the presiding officer.
Secretary of the Interior Lane, though
officially that of an ordinary chairman,
is greater from the fnct that, though
not a member of the conference, he is
regnrded as representing President Wil
son. His suggestions carry great weight.
None of them have been disregarded,
and no decision disputed. The great
est men in the fields of finance, industry
nnd labor are members. Startling con
trasts are consequently presented.
Elbert II. Gary, head of the United
Stntes Steel Corporation, sits within

rout.
However, the same team that wrung
triumphs from Bucknell and P. M. ('.
will not oppose the Delnwnienns this
afternoon. There have been radical
changes made in the personnel of the
eleven, ulthough the combination will
be almost as strong ns the one which
started last Saturday's battle.
For the first time in his football
career at Penn, Heme Miller wilt not
start the game. The stellnr end is suf

although he is physically nble to get Into
the battle, Coach Folwell believes it
wise not to use him.

Joins Chase With Proprietor and
Employes After Safe

A melodramatic diamond robbery was
committed by three armed bandits at
11 o'cock this morning at the store of
S. A. MacQuecn Company, 1427 Wal
nut street. One of the men escaped with
jewels worth $10,000.
The others, who had menaced cus
tomers and employes in the store with
automatic pistols while their comrade
looted the safe, were captured at Six
teenth and Chestnut streets after a
chase.
The boldness of the thieves was al
most unparalleled in this city, consider
ing the location of the store they rob
bed, and the fnct that thousands ot
persons were assembling ori the street
for the pence pageant.
After darting through nn apartment
hotel into a smnll street following the
robbery, the three men separated at Fif
teenth nnd Sunsom streets, the man
i nrrying the diamonds going south on
Fifteenth street. He eluded his pur
suers. There were several patrons in th
MacQueen store when the bandits en
tered. Stephen A. MacQueen, the proprie
tor, was waiting on a customer. Walter'
Y'engcr, a salesman, was displaying sil
verware. In the store office was Mls
Alice Eldridge, a clerk, of Ashland,
N. J. Two employes, George Haigh
nnd Isniah Harvey, were in the pack
ing room In the rear of the store.
Scores of persons were passing the
place when the bandits entered. They
were dressed well, and a casual glance
toward them aroused no suspicion.
"Throw Up Your Hands" J
But once in the store the robbers
worked nt amazing speed.
A command "Throw up your hands f
wns uttered by one of the men ns lie
pointed nn automatic pistol. A second
man also aimed bis weapon toward the
startled group.
The heavy store safe stands about
midway down the establishment, in the
renr of one of the counters.
Stepping quickly forward, the men
with the automntics forced Mr. Mac
Queen, the customers and the sales
people toward the rear of the store.
After a Big Haul
The robbers were after a big "haul,"
and disregarding valuable articles on the
showcases, the third man inn to the
safe, the door swinging open at his
pull.
Three clvet-lincd trays in which dia
monds Iny Hashing and sparkling were
seized by the thief. With a quick move
ment he emptied the trnjs of their con
tents nnd stuffed the jewels into his
pockets.
Obtaining the diamonds had occupied
less than n minute. The thief with the
jewels signalled bis companions, who
were holding the customers and sales
force nt bay in the rear.
The "gunmen," obeying the call,
backed rapidly down the store, threat
ening to open fire if one person ad
anced. Defective Appears
All three reached the store" entrance,
the men, with the diamonds slightly in
advance, just ns Clnrk, a detective of
the Fifteenth nnd Locust streets stn
tion saw the two of tho men slip their
heavy pistols into their pockets.
Clark ran ncross Walnut street as
Yeager, the salesman, ran down the
aisle toward the fleeing men.
With a sudden rush, the fugitives,
who had carefully mapped out their
plan of escape, turned into the Loni

adjoining the store.

At Fifteenth street, the latter tu.-ned
south sharply, while the others con
