The sentiment for the holding; of the

known today that several officials of

the high officers of the American -fleet
as earnestly desiring such s conference.
One of the Japanese officials is quoted

It is the sentiment of the foreign dip

the company, is solvent.

Mr. ' Brinkerhoff would snot divulge
what the-department's Investigators had
found, nos why the work had been done
under cover. . The "testimony brotight
out. however, that the Investigation
was an unusual thing, for the law re
nulres an examination of such concerns'
affairs only once In two years. The
last previous "examination occurred In
June 107.
Mr. Brlnkerhoffa testimony pointed
out many weaknesses In 4ke operation
of the Illinois department He admitted
that where an Insurance company repre
sents Itself as holding a certain sum In
mortgages, no question is raised over
tne value or tne security .guaranteeing
any mortgage, so long as the Interest is
paia on tne loan, it is only when fore
closures are made that facta ars re

property originally valued at l$.00 was
scheduled at only $1.60 at tbe time Of
foreclosure.

In the arrest at Vancouver last night
bv Chief of Polic&ecrlst of that Dlaoc
of a man who glees the name of B. D.
McLean the sheriff and . his deputies
believe that they have the man who
murdered Harry X-'Butterworth at St.
Johns Tuesday night. The, man Is be
ing sweated by tmi sheriff this after
noon at Vancouver.
Aside from this, the newest develop
ment In the mysterious murder case is
that Harry T. Butterworth was shad
owed and followed by a man' who1 an
swers the description Of the arreted
suspect. Just before he was murdered.
Information to this effect was given to
unier or rouce josepn juiacx or st,
Johns this morning by Kverett Bllieu, a
n-y ear-old icnuoi ooy ox oi. jonna
The boy says he saw the man watching
Butterworth through the window, and
later following him Into and out Of the
moving picture snow, i .
TWatohe Butterworth.
Kverett Bilieu. or Ray Bllieu. as he Is
commonly called, was standing, on the
street tjc Butterwortb-'s Jewairy store
Tuesday night selling tickets 'to the
skating rink. He saw a man standing
outside tne jeweiry store ana intently
watching Butterworth through the win
dow. Butterworth-was at. the time
working at his table.
Bnortiy arterwara . tne jeweler closed
up his store, and coming oot went into
tne moving picture Bnow, wnicn is a lew
doors away. The man whc had been
watching him immediately followed him
In. A short time afterwards Butter
worth came out again and started up
the street toward his home. A few
minutes later the strange man also come
out. 4,
Having no particular Interest in the
stranger the boy paid no .farther atten
tion to mm, ana wnen ne looKed around
a minute or two Jater the man had dis
appeared, i
Ray Bilieu is'a little hazy In his
ideas as to the time that elapsed be
tween the emergence of Mr. Butter
worth from the moving picture show
and the reappearance of the strange
man. At first he said it might have
been 10 or 16' minutes he was not
sure but afterwards he stated that Mr.
Butterworth had got about a block
down the street and was opposite the
tailor shop when the man came out.
If this is so. It would have given the
stranger plenty of time to cut across
lots and beat Butterworth to the tree
beneath which the jeweler was held
up and shot.
Tells Straight story.
The boy tells a verv straight story
and Is able to give a good description
of the man. He said that the fellow
was about 5 feet, 8 or 9 Inches tall,
wore a close-cronped mustache, dark
clothes, shoes and a light colored hat,
"sort of like a cowboy hat."
This tallies very well with the de
scription given by the chief of police's
office at Vancouver of the man arrest
ed there last night. This man has a
light, close-cropped mustache, a light
colored wide brimmed hat, dark clothes,
Is about 6 feet, 8 Inches In height
and when arrested had a revolver. This
last circumstance, together with the
fact that he tells various conflicting
tales, can rive no aooit nocount of
himself, and appears to think that he i
Is wanted for some serious rrlma i
make It appear extremely probable that
he Is the same man who was seen by
Everett Bilieu shadowing Harry But
terworth a short time before the latter
was snoi to death and robbed of a
vaiuaoie aiamona ring.
Acts Like Dope riend.
The man was arrested last nieht on

Hot Snrlngs. Wash., Oct. 22. Al
though two searching parties with a
thorough knowledue of the mountains
are searching the country for trace of
rea VV. Kloeoer, Drotner or ut. j. -b.
Kloeber of Qreen River Hot Springs,
and; Julius Klummie. chief clerk of the
Qreen River Hot Springs hotel, who
have been missing' since Monday morn
ing, no trace has been found, aside from
a light trail through the mountain snow
which ended in a tract of timber.
At the head of the searching party are
Dr. Kloeber and Charley Hurts of North
Yakima, who knows the region about
Hot Springs like a book. .Leading the
second party Is Arthur Densmore. Dr.
Kloeber s nartv started north ud the
canyon early this morning and Dens
more's party went over the summit. It
was agreed before starting, that the
searching parties should meet on the
banks of May creek before tonight If
the missing men are not found. I
Fred Kloeber -and Klummie were
lightly clad and carried no provisions.
They intended being absent from Hot
Springs but a few hours. They failed
to return Monday night and Wednesday
morning Dr. Kloeber and other friends
of the missing men became thoroughly
alarmed and the first searching i party
took up the trail of the hunters. They
followed it five miles across a hogback,
through a light . full of snow," but the
trail ended in a dense -tract of timber.
Bloodhounds with the party were un
able to take the scent and members of
the-party separated in an effort to find
the lost trail, uuns were fired to at
tract the attention of the hunters.
There , was no response,
It is believed that Kloeber and Klum
mie, after losing their bearings, started
to cross the mountains to gain the May
creek, valley. . The .searchers fear that
both men became exhausted and may be
In a dying condition somewhere in the
