The dlotders. which lunn Friday, were continued Saturday, and nt noon today an Immense crowd, numbering not less than lo.omi person", headed by Igtiaclo Robles, inarched to the government palace for the purpose of protesting to I'lesident AlfarO. Troops with loaded rifles prevented the crowds from approaching, and only Robles was recelevd by the president, as the pen- pie's delegate, lie Informed President Alfuro that Kcuadoienns were opposed to any ne gotiations with th I'nlted States on the suhject of the Ualapagos Islands. After a lengthy Interview the president said that In view of the manifest opposition the gov ernment would desist lu Its proposal to ne gotiate the leas. Notwithstanding this promise the crowds still remained In the streets, parading in many of the thoroughfares. Mounted troops nave been distributed In all parts of the city for the purpose of maintaining order. Detachment of armed guards also sur round the palace. President Alfaro has been arranging for a meeting of prominent men from various parts of the republic In order to ascertain the country' opinion on the question.

Political leader are wondering If he will toll what tie Intends-to. do If the present aesslon fall to act on the agreement. There ha been a great deal of talk of an extra aesslon If the reciprocity legis lation falls and It I known that much of this talk wa brought from the White Jlouse by men who enjoy confidential rela tion with the president. The tariff board, the bureau of statistics, and other bodies Which are analysing constantly th eco- onilo question Involved In the commerce this country are ready to fortify Prel- (floVt Taft with any figures he may need In carrying on a campaign of education. ' (These bureaus already have prepared much information bearing upon the relation of xport trade t commercial reciprocity with Canada. It show that neither country ha any idvantane In the market of Europe. The nlted Hates and Cauda can get eyual prices for grain and other product of the soil, unles one offer article of superior Quality. It Is recognised that the United ptates always has found a good market abroad for agricultural products, even Wheat, In aplte'of the quality of the article grown In Canada. Blar Political Issae. The preparation that la being made by the president lar a contest with congress clearly show that something more power ful than politic must be used to combat htm. Yet the fight 1 beginning to loom up a., a political Issue, Some members of the senate and house who would be expected to take the lead for the renomlnallon of Mr. Taft In 1912 may bow be found to be lukewarm In their sup port of him. If the president should deem It Incumbent upon him to call an extra ' session and submit the reciprocity agree I ment to the democrats of the next house It la said still others of the republican i party may be alienated t Tht phase of the situation was discussed by one of the president's friends today.

"Kvery believer In Canadian reciprocity, " said Senator lleverldge, "must applaud the thoroughly admirable message of the president to congress transmitting the pro posed as''Cf hient. That message Is power ful and unanswerable from any point of view . "The detail of th ltemlxed agreement may be Important to some, but, after all, they are of small consequence compared with getting the policy going.

Vnsettled weather, with considerable precipitation over much of the country, Is predicted by the weather bureau for this week. A change to colder weather will overspread the greater part of the country east of the Rocky mountains In the first part of the week, following the eastward move ment of a disturbance that was over the middle west today. The principal disturbance of the wtrk probably will prevail the next several day west of the Rocky mountains, whence It will move eastward and cross the middle west Thursday or Friday and the Atlantic states the latter part of the week. This disturbance will be preceded by rising temperature attended by general precipitation, and be followed by consider able colder weather In northern and cen tral district eaat of the Rocky mountains. NEW YORK. Jan. . Through John 8 Keith of counsel for the family, the rela-i lives of the missing Dorothy Arnold torn In part tonight of what they have done In their effort to find her. what theories they have held and how those theories have been exhausted. Ho' far as new development go. the family and the police are no nearer an Idea of where the girl Is tonight than they were the night of December 12. when she fulled to return home. "The name of a Mr. Orlscom, a Mr. Oeorge C. Grlaoom. Jr.. of Pittsburg, has come into the case In certain quarters." raid Mr. Keith, "and I want to explain Just how Mis Arnold stands and haa Btood with regard to Mr. Grtscom. "Mis Arnold knew Mr. Grlscom. as she knew manv other men. In going through her correspondence after she disappeared, we found his name and three other names of younger men In New York City whom we thought It necessary to Investigate, Just as we Investigated everything and every one who might have the most remote bear. Ing on the case. "In the course of this Investigation we decided to call on all Miss Arnold s class mates at Brj n Mawr and other young women who knew her well for Informa tion of any particular man with whom she might have been on specially friendly terms. Mr. Grlscom wss suggested. One girl was sure Dorothy had not heard from Mr. Grlscom for two weeks before he went abroad. He sailed on November S, 1910. "In those circumstance we did the natural thing, we went to the best known Grlscom In New York, Mr. Lloyd C. Grls com. Lloyd Grlscom said that George Grlscom was a distant relative whom he had not seen In twenty years. He wa able to refer ua, however, to an aunt In Pittsburg and from her we learned that George C. Gtisrom. Jr., wa In Florence, Italy, with his father and mother. ' t.rlarom Eliminated. "It happened that there were two young women In Florence at that time with whom Dorothy had been very Intimate almost as sisters might be. 8o we sent a cable to those young women asking them to Inquire of Mr. Grlscom for us what he might know of Dorothy and to send us back word by cable If he had anything Important to tell. What he had to tell Was so unimportant that they merely wrote. Mr. Grlscom was thereupon eliminated from the case. No suspicion attaches to him whatever." . "We have no theories left." concluded Mr. Keith. "V started with three that It i be a love affair. 1lscontnt or ambition. t suicide. 8o far as w can see, the theory of a love affair Is not Indicated. We are satisfied that Miss Arnold did not set out to earn her own living. As for suicide, we only know that she seemed happy up to th moment sh left." Mr. Keith denied that th family had any reason to bllve Miss Arnold was In th ' habit of receiving letters from abroad at th general delivery window of the post office. A letter to which the family attached some lmiortanie was received from Huf falo. dated January 2i. It had been written from a hospital there and said: "There Is a lady here. She Is sick In bed. She is Insane. Come and see." Other letters from all oxer the country continue to pour in. Kern Walking In Park. The possibility of Miss Arnold listing been attacked In the park was thought by Mr. Arnold tonight to have been strength ened by the story which a woman brought to the house who said she was positive she saw Miss Arnold walking towards the entrance of Central park late In the after noon of Iecemher 12. the day she disap peared. Mr. Keith said, when he heard the story, that the posltlvcness of the woman had all but convinced him that a search of the lake In Central park might be worth while. On the nlRht of Miss Arnold's dis appearance the ike froze over. KANSAS MAN IN NEW YORK One Big Prof. McKeever Discusses Social Problem.

"The Boys of Company B," 'offered for the first time to Omaha by Miss Lang and her players at the Boyd last night, might very well be taken for the bromldlo army melodrama. However, such Is not the case; It Is a merry little military comedy that under the subtle Interpretation of Intelligent and consistent actors becomes thoroughly enjoyable. The action centers around the head strong but rather scrambled love-making of Tony Allen, a young attorney playing amateur soldier. Mr. Lynch plays the part with a rush and abandon that carrje everything along on the tide of his per sonality, and wins against me perversity of circumstance and the adversity of the girl's mother. The role of the girl, Klleen McLane, Is assumed by Miss Lang. With quick Intelligence she enacts all the vari ous phase of mind common to a Jealous young woman who Is very much In love. Mlas Du Bols has a difficult role In. the chaiacter of a mother would would sell her daughter, yet she puts so much sym pathy Into the part that the mother makes a far from hateful person. Mr. Bliss, as the young man's rich and eccentric uncles was much to the liking of the aullence. Mr. Kvana la given a part that, coupled with his ability, enabie him to win more than his share of laughs. The heavy char acter Is, as usual, assigned to Mr. Selman, and, as usual, he does It very well. The rest of the company, while seen In lesser parts, are all up to their usual standard of excellence. Vaudeville at the Orphean. Chief among th actors at the Orpheum this week are the Imperial Russian Dan cers In characteristic and classical dan cing. Lydla Lapokawa, graceful and sinu ous, shines for entrancing action and skill ful movement. Alexander Vollnlne and Theodor Lapokawa, assisting Miss lapo kawa, were given much applause yesterday. "A Lamb on Wall Street," a -ted by 1 telle Coote & Co., Is uproariously funny. It deals with the experience of an Knglish man, who Is characterized by Mr. Coote. Alexander and Scott, In "From Virginia,' present sidelights on mlnstrelry In a highly edifying way. Drollery of a sort that pleases Is produced by Jarrow. who Is original to a great degree. His efforts niet with much applause yesterday. He gave aome bltg of humor that were Irresist ible. "The Violin Maker of Cremona" worked under difficulties at the matinee yester day, being without his scenery. His classi cal playing, however, received the recep tion which It merited. Mereena, Nevaro and Mereena. equilibrists, presented a nov elty that met with favor. Gymnasts who are out of the ordinary and who at times held the breathless attention of the audi ence are the Marlo-Aldo performers, there i being three in tht group. They do some thrilling trick, which are both new and Interesting. number and does fully as well as many of the human bell-ringers seen on the lyceum circuits, which Is not a rash assertion. Buckley and More, dancers, do several novel stunts, one of which is dancing against a platform while they stand on their hands. In a well-staged singing scene Oiietta and Taylor offer an act that I distinctive and highly pleasing. Kramer and Wlllard. comedians, delight. Their act Is clean and manv of their Jokes are good. Foster and Foster In the "Volunteer Pianist" create an uproar. This act Is real funny. Burlesque at the Km ST. Zallah, with a clever exhibition of Egyp tian dancing, usurps first place In the of fering of the Tiger IJlles company,, which will hold the board at the Krug theater until Wednesday night. Her dance la one which shows simply the control of the muscles which years and years of practice will give. The exhibition Is genteel and ap peals to those who admire grace In dancing. The second burletta of the program Is built around Zallah and gives her an opportunity to display her ability as a dancer. Two skits, the first, "Happy Days," and the second. "The Princess' Affinity," af ford the chorus ample opportunities In the wav of singing and dancing. The chorus girls are pretty and can sing. The spe cialty number are also well balanced Edith Leffler and Blle Clayton, the "third rail" girls, dance and sing. Rita Lorraine and company. In a pantomime novelty en tleled "Le Mort," present an old, old story told In a new way. Wallace Jenkins and Margarette Flavin sing a couple of pleas ant songs and Alvln and Kenney wind up the olio with a comedy ring act, which per mits them to do some clever work on the flying rings. " Matt Kennedy Is .the fun- maker and Is busy throughout both skits with quips and Jibes which take. The usual extras have been announced by the management. Monday night the am ateurs will get another chance at the prise offered for the best act. Tuesday night will be given over to the chorua girl and Wednesday night th waltslng contest will be held. NEW YORK. Jan. 30. The body .of a young woman, strangled to death. In the opinion of the police, was found In a room on the second floor of the Bryant hotel on Sixth avenue tonight. Up to a late hour Investigation had developed no clue to her Identity or that of the supposed mur derer. A couple which had oecupleB the room last night were registered as Mr. and Mrs. John Smith of Montclalr, N. J. A bell boy discovered the body. A towel had been stuffed down the woman's throat and her neck and face were discolored and bruised. The hotel clerk Informed the police that the man who had accompanied the woman to the hotel left early this morning. The victim of the murder was about years old and pretty. There was evidence that the woman had fought hard for life. Her body was found lying partly on the bed and partly on the floor, and, although dressed, the clothing was badly torn. She wore a fur coat and white kid gloves when she entered the hotel. A wedding ring, another plain gold one and a small turquoise ring were on her fingers, and a gold mesh purse lay on the bureau. The purse was empty. Black stains were found on the dead woman lips, wntcn resemoiea tnose ordi narily made by an acid, the detectives said. The neighborhood of the hotel was gone over with a fine tooth comb tonight with out the discovery of any one who would ad mlt acquaintance with the girl or her com panion. The three central office detectives who Investigated the mystery tonight became after a few hours, convinced that the young woman was not a frequenter of the dis trict and believed she was a resident of some suburb of New York. ' They were, of the opinion she had been lured to the room, and, although her purse had been robbed, they doubt that the motive of the murder was robbery.

Thla week the American Music ball makes a strong bid to distinction through an act which It Is safe to say will receive a grati fying reception during the period of Its presentation. Miss Lottie Mayer, bewitch ing dtxer, whose act Is not unlike that of the charming Miss Annette Kellerman, Is shapely and graceful, and her performance, consisting of a variety of dive into a large tank, well deserves to be the headllner of what Is altogether a creditable bill.

JO -tSpeclal Tele gram. t'Hetter crop of boys and girls" was the term used by William A. Mc Keever as a basis for discussion of a great social problem at the child welfare exhibit in New York, and before leaving for his western home today he discussed the sub ject at length lu an Interview. Dr. McKeever Is one of the leading edu cators of his section, now occupying the chair of philosophy at the Stat Agricul tural college of Kansas. He was gradu ated from the Cnlversity of Chicago and holds a degree from Harvard. "We study ami experiment with the sci entific breeding of horses, cows, dogs, even hens," he said, "and we leave to luck the propagation of the human animal. Yet the greatest opportunity In all human history knocks at the doors of this virile young nation. To us especially belongs the duty of reconstructing the race life, even H we have to check our mad craxe for making money, to go more directly Into the busi ness of making men." Dr. McKeever contended that the Ameri cans have not even guessed at tne possi bilities of human development. 'We have not stopped," he said, "to guess or think or plan. We have busied ourselves with every other art that prom Isea a money return, but we have totally neglected the business promising the most profitable results, the selective breeding of the race. "Any tock fasm proves that It need more than chance to evolve and train the finest peclmens. What we need Is to apply the method of the stock farm to humanity. 'I want to see your great dtlx?n.

All prospective parents should be trained. The love of children Is Instinctive, but the ability to care for them properly la not. "I think all applicants for a marriage license should be compelled to take a writ ten examination In the elementary facts of child raising." Dr. McKeever believes that heredity has a grest deal to do with marriages. This he sets forth In the discussion of international alliances. "A marriage between an American girl and a foreign nobleman Is more than likely to be unsatisfactory, but It Is the mingling of two distinctly different streams of accu mulated Inheritance." "And you don't consider that mere love Is enough to make marriage a success?" he was asked. "From the viewpoint of the race, love, attraction In Individuals, is absolutely in adequate. It Is one essential factor In the development of the superman, but only one." WASHINGTON. Jn. S" -(Special Tele- eram.) Probably within a wek or ten days the government will find Itself obliged to assume a definite position In regard to the potash controversy which has been raging here for some time. At the end of that time, it Is now expected, the German government will return a final answer with reference to the stand it Is prepared to take on the question of potash and th American contracts which have been at the bottom of the recent controversy. This snswer may be a refusal to go any further In the matter, on the ground that the potash law Is a matter of International regulation; or. It may be the Indication of a willingness to take the matter up diplo matically, submit It perhaps to a commis sion of some kind, or report to some similar expedient; or. It may be a direct proposi tion to make certain concessions to this government. Without Its being reallxed by th public, the potash situation, w hlch started In an obscure way a a purely technical prob lem, has reached a position that may make lit quite a serious Issue. The State department evidently regards the matter as really worthy of detailed at tention, and It Is true that a very sub stantial amount of time haa been devoted to It In the recent past, both by Secretary Knox and by the subordinate who have been working on the ramifications of It. All sorts of potash Interests have been In Washington. Including the representa tives of th German syndicate, the Ameri can Agricultural Chemical company, the independent" fertilizer companies of the Tnlted States, the packers and others. All have been to the State department and many have been to the president, stating their own position with reference to the facts In tho case and urging that the gov ernment should or should not Interfere, ac cording as their fancy or Interests dic tated. The facts are now pretty thoroughly known, and the question Is how to deal with them. On this point there are already evident some differences of opinion, and It Is an open question what the final con clusion will be. President Taft has been decidedly con servative from the first. When the demand for tariff war was made, at the outset he pushed It aside and resumed, or rather be gan a new series of diplomatic negotiations. To those who asked him whether It were true that he had decided on war, the presi dent said It was very easy for gentlemen to be truculent when they had no respon sibility, but that the situation was entirely different when authority rested upon the shoulders of an executive. It Is a fact that some members of the president's cabinet do not believe that the potash case Is one that would fall within the scope of the tariff law, even If the treatment accorded to domestic Interests were as Inconsiderate a has been alleged. Other members take the view that while the situation would call for the maximum rates, If It could be shown that there were discriminations, they are not sure that the discrimination is really there at least not in the sense In which the framcrs of the law Intended. Some others are inclined to favor the ap plication of the maximum rates. Thus the cabinet, which has already considered the question, Is apparently broken up Into three groups. Tho president can select any kind of advice that he prefers. BARACA UNI0NWlll ' MEET Bible todata to Hold rimt Quar terly Rally lu Council IMuffs ( lasses Ora-anlsluK.
