Tho now prayer book which has been re vised by the House of Bishops since its rejection by Commons, will be issued tomorrow and con troversy within the Church of England will flare anew. The situation has been compli cated by the publication yesteruay of the "Malines conversations" concerning tho prospect of union between the Anglican and Roman Catholic churches. Those will un doubtedly be used by the evangeli cal opponents of revision to sup port their hostility to what they regard as the tendency of the Anglo-Catholics toward Rome. Al tnough the recent papal enclycicai seemed to nullify the advance oi tne Anglo Catnoiics' toward unity, Protestants believe further at tempts will be made and the posi tion, as they view It, therefore remains critical.

It was found in the apartment not far from the stran gled body of Margaret Odell, the beautiful stage star known as the "Canary." The caso looked as if someone had first tried to open it with a poker and then had suc ceeded in opening it wtlh a chisel. Vance, Markham's friend, and a student, of -crime -and psychology, thinks it most peculiar.

His 'specialty was locks and bur glars' .tools; and I doubt if, even among those exhaustively pains taking criminologists of the Uni versity of Lausanne, there was a more accurate reader of the evi dential signs left by the Imple ments of house-breakers. In ap pearance and bearing he was liko a withered little college profes sor. His black, impressed suit was old-fashioned in cut; and ho Iwore a very high stiff collar, with a narrow black string tie.

Vance, whose iuieiedt seemed suddenly to be ra awakened, cam oV forward and stood watching him. 4 For fully fivul minutes the littlo expert inspect 4 ihe cube, holding it .within a few J jaches of his my iic eyes. Then he lifted his glance to Heath and winked se-ei-ul times rapidly. "Two instruments were used ia opening this cade." His voice was small and high-pitched, but there was lu it an uulieniublu quality of authority. "Ono bent the Hd and made several fractures on the baked enamel. The other was, 1 should say, a steel chiBel of some kind, and was used to break the iock. "The first instrument, which was blunt, was employed amateur ishly, at the wrong angle of lev erage; and the effort resulted only in twisting the overhang of the lid. But the steel chisel was in serted wiiu-a knowledge of the correct point of oscillation, where a minimum of levuiugo would pro duce the counteracting stress ne cessary to Uiaplavo the lock bolt j." "A professional job?" suggested Heath. "Highly so," answered the in spector, again blinking. "This ia to say, the forcing of the lock .... i.rnf..i!lnil Anrt I a-n.,l.l )evon go B0 far aa t0 auTanc8 the i opinion that tho Instrument used was one especially constructed tor such Illegal purposes." . "Could this have done the job?" Heath held out the uoi;er. The other looked at it closely, and turned it over several times. "It might have been tho instru ment that bent the cover, hut R was not the one used for prying open the lock. This poker Is cast Iron and would have snapped un der .any great pressure, whereas this box Is or cold rolled eighteen gauge steel plate, with an Inset cylinder pln-lumbler lock taking paracentric key. The leverage force uecesary to distort the flange sufficiently to lift the lid could have been roude only by a sieci cnisei. "Well, that's that." Heath scorn ed well satisfied with Inspector Brenner's conclusion. 'Til send the box down to you, Professor, and you can le me know what else you flud out." "I'll take it along, if vou have ! no objection." And the littlo man tucked It under his arm and shuf fled out without another word. Kealh grinned at Markhum. "Queer bird. He ain't' happy un less he's measuring jimmy marks on doors and windows and lhlti;;. He couldn't ivnit till I sent him tho box. He'll hold It lovintlv on ;ms lap all the way down in 'the Isubwav. like mother with a "standing 'nenr the dressing-table, gazing perplex edly Into space. "Markham," he said, "the con dition of that jewel-case in posi tively astounding. It's unreason able .Illogical iusttne. It compU- tcatea the situation most damnably. 'That steel box simply couldn't have been chiselled open by a pro fessional burglar . . . and yer, don't y' know, it actually was;" Before M ark h tun could reply, a satisfied grunt from Captain. Du bois attracted out attention, "I've got something for you. Ser geant," he announced. We moved expectantly Into ihe living-room. Dubois was bending over the end of the library-table almost directly behind the place where Margaret Odell'a body had been found. He took out an Insufflator, which was like a very small hand bellows, and blew a flue light yellow powder evenly over about a e qua re foot of the poliBliod rose wood surface of the table lop. Then he gently blew away the sur plus powder, and there appeared the Impression of a human hand distinctly registered in saffron. The bulb of tho thumb and each i fleshy hummock between the joints' of tho fingers and around ,the palm stood out Hko tiny clr ' cular Islands. All the papillary ; ridges were clonrly discernible. The photographer then hooKeu uis camera to a peculiar adjustably tripod and, carefully focusing hta lens, took two flash-light pictures of tho hand-mark. "This ought to do," Dubois w.is pleased wiih his find. "It's tho right hand a clear print and the guy who made it was standing ritmt behind tho dame. . . . And fit's the newest print In tho plnce." t "What about this box?" Heath i pointed to ihe black document-box ion tho table near the overturned lamp. "Not a mark wiped cltfan." Dubois begun putting away his paraphernalia. "I Bay, Captain Dubois," intor "od Vance, " did you take a good look at tho Inside door-knob vt that clothes-press?" The man swung about, abruptly, and gave Vnnco a glowering look. "ppmilo ain't In the habit of bundling tho Inside knobs of closet ! doors. They open and shut closets from the outside. Vance raised his eyebrows In simulated astonishment. "Do they, now, really? Fancy that! . . . Still, don't y know. If one were Inside the clo3('t, one couldn't reach the outside Unou." "The people I know don't shut themselves In clothes-closets." Du bois's tone was ponderously sar enstic. "You positively nmnzo me!"' de clared Vance. "All tho people 1 know are addicted to the habit a sort of daily pastime, don't y' know." ' Markham, always diplomatic, In tervened. I. "What idea havo you about that closet, Vanco?" !i "Alus!

Captain. -As this gentleman says, there's something funny about th condition of that closet." Dubois, silent and surly, went to the closet door and sprayed his yellow powder over the inside knob. When he had blown the loose particles away, he bent over it with his magnifying-glass. At leugth he straightened up, and gave Vance a look of Ill-natured appraisal. "There's fresh prints on It, all right," he grudgingly admitted ; "and unless 1 m mistaken they were made by the samo hand as those on tho table. Both thumb marks are ulnar loops, and the Index-fingers nre both whorl pat terns. ... Here, I'ete," he order ed tho photographer, "make some shots of that knob." When this had boon done, Du bois.

Legis lation to strengthen the court's power- In sentencing bootloggora and rum runners wus urged today before a house Judiciary sub-corn-mlttoe by Assistant Attorney Gen eral Mabel Walker Wlllebrandt. Mrs. Wlllebrandt endorsed a bill by Representative Stalker of New York, republican, which would strengthen the Volstead act by providing a flue up to f 10,000 or imprisonment up to five years or both for Illegal manufacture, sale or transportation of liquor. The Volstead act imposes six months' Imprisonment or a fiire up to $1,000 or both for these oiienses, she said. "Tho hands of the courts are tied at present when a large liq uor offonder is arraigned," she de clared. "This maximum f iuo and Imprisonment enables the iun .e-i lu impose soutences-commensurate with the offenae and will hit di rectly at tho big bootleggers, "At tho Bnme time it leaves to tho Judges discretionary 1 power to Impose Binall sentences where the cases are not of a serious uatuie. .
