The police to day found threo trunks exprosaed from St. Louis to "Dornadotto Louis, Chicago," with no furthor address, which they suspect may contain tho bodies of the two Vlvlano children, kidnaped from St. Louis and thought by many persons to have been killed. There was no odor nbout tho trunks nnd tho suggestion that thoy might contain bodies was puroly theoreti cal. The police are investigating ovory possible clew in an effort to find tho claimant of tho trunks. St. Louis detectives aro oxpectcd to ar rlvo hero this evening, and tho trunks probably will be opened after tho police obtain legal advice. Ono of tho trunks woI&Iib 1G0 pounds and tho other two wolgh 200 pounds each. They fit tho descriptions of tho mysterious trunks sont from St Louis by persons allcgod to havo ta ken the children from tholr parents' homo. St. Louis, Aug. 4. Tho pollco to day think thnt Grace and Alfonso Vlvlnno, tho sum 1 1 children hold for 2o,000 ransom, have not been re moved from tfie city nnd they nro working today oh this theory. The rather of the children said today that he would not pay tho ran som nnd he has notified tho pollco that he ns no Idun of doing so. The detectives have learned that trunks of Samuel Turlssl woro sont from St. Louis to Chicago on Mon day. i he authorities at Chicago havo been asked to try to find them nnd hold them for examination. Turlssl Is alleged to have been seen with the children nfter thoy were tak- Jen from their home at noon on Mon day. The oxprossinnn who took his trunks to the station has beou hold with several others for examination. An far h police havo no doflnltc clow to the whereabouts of the chil dren. FIRE DESTROYED SEATTLE FACTORY ftultiil Pre r.piiHul Wlre.l Seattle. Aug. 4. Fire early this morning destroyed tho sash and door factory of Stotson-PoBt nnd the building occupied by the Union En gine works, causing a total los of $35,000. In the engine company's building was stored patterns to the value of $25,000 nnd thCBO woro ruined. The origin of tho flro Is not known The fire boat rondo n rocord run to the scene nnd did good work In ex tinguishing the blnzo. On tho wny the fire fighting crnft ran down and tank a small launch, but no one wns Injured, tho boat bolng lunoccuplod at the time. THE GOOD EFFECT OF TARIFF SETTLEMENT We are noarlng tho ond of tho tariff agitation. Mr. Taft has stood practically nlnne for revision down ward, In fulfillment of political prom Ises The new tariff will make little general difference In conditions, and the folly Is apparent, of attempting to regulatr affair' Into which broad economlp forces entor-so largely, through congress, which is strongly Influenced (necessarily porhaps) by the selfish and Insistent interests of indlv'dual constituents. Tho now tariff clips at duties hero and there, but will como out like the boy who has had his hair out. The appear ance at the moment Is slightly diffe rent, but it is the samo boy, and be fore long, the difference will not be noticed. Bus'ntss may now soon proceed unhindered by uncertainty of prices as affected by the tariff, and it will be a long time before the subject will again come up ts delay and harass, commercial operations. And thl is a thing to b thankful for. From the day of aotual settlement of the new tariff, buying throughout every part of the country will start 'n where the smaller concerns havo held back with depicted stoclts, awaiting this settlement. The vol ume of such buying will in the ag gregate roll up enormously. Mer chants will stock up heavily, and in view of the splendid outlook for bus iness, are liable to contract for need far in advance. The final push to wards normal prosperity will thus be g'von. and we look for such com mercial activity as bas not been I seen since pre-panlc times. Weekly Financial Review. DAILY FI6HT GOSSIP (By the Ringslder.) Sail Francisco, Aug. 4. Johnny trnyno is hot on the trail of Frank wnntcll, who Is clamoring for a fight with Bill Papke. O'Kcefe holds a 10-round decision over Mantoll and Is willing to get $500 that ho can win. O'Kecfo Is to tnko Young Potor Jackson on under the samo condi tions. O'Kcefe Is game, strong nnd clever nnd showed his class when, with bnroly 24 hours' notice ho fought tho fast coming Terry Keller to a standstill In 10 rounds. Tom McCnrey, who appears to bo sublimely confident that Jeffries nnd Johnson will tight and who Is going after the match as though It wcro really made, hns taken the first stop In tho campaign to secure his pro posed bnttle for Los Angeles. Sam Berger was loft behind to nr rnngc the details of tho Johnson Jeffries match. Take that nolso away. Our lips nro sore enough now. Pnckey McFnrland's sweeping chal lenge to an the lightweights doesn't soem to hnvo stirred up much dust, poison has completely Ignored It thus far, but the Dane, being n practical man, probably Is thinking It over. Ihoro may be something doing It Coffroth gets out of tho woods, but until thl-n tho pugs will hnvo to cool their heels as best they can back In tno torrid cast.
