No cluo has been found as to tho whereabouts of two pearl necklaces taken from jicr room a few days ago SERVANTS QUIZZED IN JEWELROBBERY Detectives Detain Fourteen at McFadden Residence in Quest -for $300,000 in Gems $25,000 REWARD OFFERED Fourteen servants nt Bloomflcld, the estate of Mr. and Mrs. George II. McFadden, Jr.., near Vlllanova, are be ing detained nt tho residenco today and closely questioned concerning the dis appearance of Mrs. McFndden's Jewels, valued nt more than, $3Q0.0OOV Detectives aro (virtually convinced that tho "boudoir theft" of thp famous McFadden pearl necklace und other gems was nn Inside job, or was com mitted with tho aid of orao oue In or familiar with the McFadden residence. Mr. McFaddcu has refused to fasten Mispieion on any one of the servants, nlthough he would not absolve them in connection with tho mysterious dis Tpncarnnco of thc gems. Tho jewels were mltscd by Mrs. Mc Fadden at 0 o'clock last Saturday morning. She had worn the jewels at a dinner nt Bloomflcld the night before. Serv ants saw the rare rope of pearls and other jewels when Mrs. McFnddcn wore, them nt thc dinner. It Is also likely that they knew she placed them in n jewel case on her dressing table on retiring at midnight Friday, instead of locking them in u safe, which was her custom. JChero is a theory that thc jewels may navo oeeu uikvii ueiwuen o aim u o'clock on Saturday morning. Mrs. Mc Fadden left her boudoir nt that time and breakfasted In an adjoining room. The jewels lay unguarded in the next room for nt least an nour until airs. McFnddcn suddenly remembered she had not placed them in a safe and hurried In only to learn they .were. gone. Three insuranco companies havo jointly offered a reward of a0-,000 for recovery of the jewels. It in nhw estimated one missing string of pearls Is worth from $150,000 to $300,000. W. E. Miller, of 400 Wnlnut street, representing tho "three companies that Insured tho string of pearls, said .It consibts of KWi pearls, weighing lJllO grains, or 33li carats. Ho said tho pearl ropo might havo beciuworth only $1C0,000 nt thc time it was bought ten years ago, but it bad since doubled In value. Other 'jewelers said tho McFadden necklnco was known to tho trade ns one of the finest in tho United States. Besides the ropo of nearls n necklace, consisting of sixty-five pearls, was utnlnn. with diamond and on;x car- rings, set In platinum; n wrist watch, studded with diamonds and attached to n platinum bractlet; a platinum-diamond barpln; a platinum ring, uith clouded sapphire, rwd an Imitation pearl necklace, which Is a replica of tho pearl rope. No traco has been found of the jewels stolen on tho night of October 0 from tho homo of Mrs. William Saekett Duell, at Meadowbrook, Pa. They are valued at $25,000.

Unable to Pioneer, Is Crad t ' uallyv Driven Toward Wil-. son's Position PARTJES SPLIT ON ISSUE OF SENDING TROOPS ABROAD Country In General Is Believed to Favor Harding'3 Polloy of Noninterference By CLINTON W. GILBERT Staff CoiTfsponilrnt I'.rrnlnpt Fublto lder CeMirioM, 1H0, hv PuUio Ltdotr Co. Columbus, O., Oct. 13. Tho Lcaguo of Nations issue, which has como to tho front Jn tho last few days of this cam paign" is turning moro and moro on Artlqle X, Governor Cox, since her has given up trying to raise other issues, has corac, more and more, to the Wilson position on the league. Ills questions addressed in St. Louis to Ex-President Taftby implication, commit hlra to Article X. And Senator Harding, on hlu recent trip in the West, emphasized thp super government and tho obligation, legal or moral, to defend the territorial integ rity of foreign powers which tho league covenant creates, us his objection to en tering tho league, that is to say, his great objection is Article X. Tho asso ciation of nations which ho will seek to crento, whether It bo a remodeled League of Notions, or a new organiza tion, will be bound by no Article X. Harding Opposes Article X This turn in thc debate brings the two parties very near the positions which hry occupied during the fight between President Wilson nnd tho United States i Senate. Senator Hardlne is not ex prcssly for tho Lodge reservations. He could not be, and satisfy the bitter-ender support which ho has in thc Repub lican party. Senator Harding would probably say, If he choso to discuss those reservations, that he was n6 longer for them, be cause, in thc light of events in Europe, and a fuller understanding of tho whole situation, better. means-than thc Lodge reservations could be found for safe guarding thc interests of the United States. But Senator1 Harding's real aim, as set forth in his statement to the press, Is to effeef an association, of, .nations, (ho league, or something else, and ac complish vwhat thc Lodee reservations isoughfrbnt-dld not entirely succeed in accomplishing. In particular, Senator Harding would get rid of 'Article X. Tho big issue be tween him and Governor Cox- is Article X. just ns it was between Wilson and the Senate. Mr. Harding Is not far from thc position of his party during the great controversy of Inst winter. Qovernor Cox is not now far from the position of Ills party as laid down by President Wilson during that con troversy. Article X Is Shibboleth Tho rock on which the United States Senate and President Wilson split was Article X. It did nor emerge clear and unmistakable till near thc end of thc debate In Washington. It was thc point on which there was no comnro mlse' possible, and Article X is tho great landmark that divides thc two parties today. - Harding Is for a' league or association which shall be bound by no Article X. Cox, infcrcntlallly, nt least, defends Ar ticle X. Tho emergency of Article X ns nn Is sue probably helps the Republican can didate. Tho one thinir that imiieni-H in tho reaction of audiences to the speeches of both Harding and Cox is that the country does not wish to be bound to interfere by force of nrms in European quarrels. Cox, in advocating tho League of Na tions, is compelled to assure his audi ences that Article X In no wnv com pels this country to send troops abroad : that tho power of Congress to declaro or to refuse to declare war Is no way impaired by the famous article. And Hardlng,over nnd over agnln. Insists that, whatever the legal btatus of the obligation to defend the territorial integrity of other members of the league, the moral obligation cannot be escaped. It is pluin, fiom the action of audi ences, that the desiro to avoid any obli gations to use armed forces abroad, legal or moral, is general. When the Republican party failed to decluro for the Lodge reservations in Its Chicago platform,' Governor J2ox started out to occupy the reiervatlouist territory of the league issue. He felt that tho strongest position was thc mid way position. But ho could never bring himself to say that he would, if Presi dent, ucccpt the Lodge reservations. Issue Shapes Itself He promised to sit down with the Senate and agree upon reservations which would adequately protect Amer ican Interests, but he never could say what those reservations would be. To do so would have been to nllenate tho support of President Wilson. Perhaps he felt also that to concedo that toe Republican senators were right in in sisting upon tho Lodgo reservations would be to throw away half tho case for his' own party. At any rate, tho issue has been made rather in spite of tho efforts of Gov ernor Cox to change it, as already shown In this correspondence. While the Dem ocratic candidate was in the West his party in the various states bhaped the Issue. Tho state leaders, like TiiL-irnrf stumned for tho league without subtle. - . . ues or rcimciiicuis, j.uey tmw no cnance of getting awny from their own party's record in Washington They nnd President Wilson shaped the campaign. Cox bad had his chauce to mako it aiong nis own lines, nnd had not succeeuea. two things havo con- Irlbuted to COintiel tho Demoprntle rum. palgn to stand upon Article. X. One Is Cox's inability to n'onter, to rnlse some issue big enough toVm to hlx party h recom secondary. TM other probably is me uiuicuity ot djfi aining in n ti v money tor thc Democratic party on any other lssuo than tho unqualified support of the Lcaguo ot Nations, Most of the Democrat mouey was League of Nations money.
