A country-wide search for the Pope
woman is on today, a the police
plnco little credence in Conn's tale.
They believe she was the brains of
Conn's exploit.
A pathelio letter from Mrs. Clark-
son, wife of tho Chicago pastor, who
deserted her husband and family to
flee with Conn, was found among
the prisoner's effects today.
It developed that Conn had n pecu
liar way of presenting gifts to the
girls of tho half world whom he
courted. On the frequent automo
bile rides he took with them, he would
always stop in front of tho city's
moat fashionable jewelry store and
snv to his companien: "Just a mo
ment, mid I will Ret that vrutch I
promised you." Then, stepping into
tho store, ho would claim n watch
ho had previously stolen from some

be engraved with tho initials of his

Conn say tho patient is in n serious

Owing to n wet Hllppcr)' pavement
tho huge auto firo truck pf the local

origin of the firo was not determined.
Tbe loss will reach SSPOO, partially

The house was a mas of flame
when tho blaze was first discovered,
so that nothing could have been
saved bad no accident occurred to
the firo truck. Other homes were
endangered, however, by the delay
but a hard fight with garden hoae In
the bands of cltlrens led by Chief
Hlttson and Officer Clngcade of tho
