Approxim.ately 3.000 of the Royal (liinadl.in Regiment have been sent from lx>ndon. Ont., K-irmcks to the scene of strife. A second squad of pro¬ vincial polico haa left bero for Cape Breton.

SHEPHERD IS CALLED
A PATIENT MURDERER
Chicago, Juna 13-—Through eight witnesses, .St.ates Attorney Robert K. Crow-o today described Wlillam D. Shepherd as the "moKt iiatlent mur¬ derer In history"—scheming and plot¬ ting for sixteen years to kill Billy Mc¬ Clintock and thus obtain his |1,000,- 000 e.state.
Ci-owo made rapid progrca.s In the presontation of his c.-uso to the Jury at thn short Saturday session of court. Over reiieated objections from Shep¬ herd's attorneys he succeeded In get¬ ting In hla evidence.
Porhaps the most damaging bit of testimony* woj* that of Miss Anne Buckford. formerly a inald In the Shepherd home. She told of a closet In Shepherd's bedroom which con¬ tained "75 or 100 buttles of medicine."
"He told me not to come Into that room—It was a secret. Ml.ss Reckforri testlHcd. "Once I went in by mlslake and he was holding a bottlo over .a gas flame and laughing aa the medi¬ cine bubliled."
This. Crow-o contends, shows that Shepherd    was    a
chemistry, hoping to flnd poisons with whieh to murder Billy without being detected.
In furtherance of this theory, Crowe

Karly toilay the senrch for the man and girl hnd eoncentrntod around Old Ji'orge and Duryea.
The Pammaltonlo girl leff her homn last Wndnosday morning for school and has not been soou by hor parents since then. When she failed to return in tho evening. Inquiry was mado nnd It was learned thn girl had never reached bor cla.ssroorn. Simultaneously the parents learned that Monacelll, who at ono time lived with them, hud disappeared from his biiardilig placo at 326 Main streot, P;irson:;.
From other sources It w-as lenrned that thn man and girl had been seen together and a wiirrant w,'us Immedi¬ ately secured from Justlro of the Peace FMw-ard oyce, Thn alleged kid¬ napping was reported to tho district attorneys of both Luzorne ami l.,ai-ka- wanna counties while special Investi¬ gators were placed at w-ork tiy the John Cartuscelllo detective agency of Scninton.

PERMISSION TO MARRY
Mexico Cit.v, June 13 (United Pross).—Secretar.v of State Kellogjr's waminp to Mexico to maintain order and to keep lier obligations, will probably be answered soon bv President Callos.
Hitherto no comment lias beon forthcoming. But unoffi¬ cial observations sliow that the Kt^lioo-fr warnino- is viewed hei'^ as ill timed and as possibly conducive to encouraging disgrun¬ tled elements in obstructing the government's program.
"Yankee imperialism," as the communists teiTii the United States policy, waa to be protested tonight at a communist meeting. The leaders also propose to object to what they tenn American Ambasfwidor Sheffield's domination of the Mexican govornment.
The mooting, .scheduled for somo days past, was not a re¬ sult of the Kellogg statement.
H. Arthur Schoenfeld lias found it necessary to make representations to the government, since ShcfTicld's departure, in the matter of the Evans ranch murder.
Kellogjf Action Mystifies
Washington, .Tune l.">.—Tho impelling reason for the ad¬ ministration's choice of the present time to issue its tart state¬ ment on Mexican-American relations still remained somewhat mysterious tonight. The three-fold purpose entertained by Secretary of Stato Kellogg in bluntly telling Mexico that his country was dissatisfied with conditions was pretty well under¬ stood, but a big question mark was placed by diplomatic circlea on the selection of method and movement.
Kellogg, it was generally ngroed, al¬ though the State Department madn no amplifying .statement today, aimed at:
Better terms on American properties damaged  by Mexican  revolutionists.
IHscouracIng foreign Investment In Mexico until conditions liecome more satisfactory   to   thl.s   government.
Forcing  President  Callos   to   oppose moro  vigorously  the   radical   demnnds | ot labor and agrarians which menace American   properly   rights.
All these things havo been under tho surfaco <if relations between the two countries for Kome time and hav<' lieen tho subject of diplomatic notes. Ko far OS usually weil Infonned quar¬ ters we<*r awaro nono ot them had drifted towarii a crisis that warrant¬ ed putting such an indictment of Mexico OS Kellogg lsue<l, beforo the world.
Two suggestions wore advanced that contalnoil possible clues: one that tJnileii States Ambassador .to Mexico   ShefTleld,     who     arrived   here
Thursday on leave, put conditions and threatened revolutions in a worso light  than   heretoforo.
May IVcitert   I.oniis
Anolher Is that the Mexican govern¬ ment's payments to Now York Ixuikem undor a financial .agreement reached last ye.ar. aggregating some millions of prsetos. aro due on July 1. and to fore.stall a default Kellogg moved to warn ('alios that such nu act would not  b«  without consequences.
At nny mto officials ndmit that the radical program of Calle.s' labor and agrarian supporters, allegedly menac¬ ing American rights, haa created a problem which cannot be easily or quickly solved. Unless Calles shows the desired attitude, however. It Is ad- mltte<l this gnvernmont is prepared to discourage officially other private loans and American business there and In a crisis to permit exportations ot arms to revolutionists. If Calles does tall in line this country would support him aR3.1nst revolutionists who .are re¬ ported actlvo ag:iin. This argument may havo the desired effect.
