'By the Associated Press. Paris, 10. The French police have begun a thorough investigation into the death of Olive Thomas, an American motion-picture actress, who succumbed this morning to poison taken, it is said, by mistake several days ago. The authorities have issued a permit for the embalming of the body, but as yet have not sanctioned its shipment to the United States on board the steamship Mauretania sailing from Cherbourg September 18. SINISTER RUMORS AFLOAT.

Investigation also is being made by the police of sinister rumors of cocaine orgies, intermingled with champagne dinners which lasted into the early hours of the morning, that have been afloat in the American colony and among the habitues of the French cinema world during the past week. Tonight, in the Sante prison, the police were closely questioning a man named Spalding, said to be a former American Army captain, who was sentenced to six months in jail last Monday for vending cocaine. In connection with the death of Miss Thomas the police say they desire to interview Jack Pickford, a motion-picture actor and husband of Miss Thomas, and also a woman friend of the actress who is said to have accompanied Miss Thomas during her last pilgrimage to the Montmartre district Saturday evening. PICKFORD IN SECLUSION. Mr.

Pickford today left the Ritz Hotel, where he had been stopping, and has taken up quarters in the Hotel Cri-lon. He declined to receive visitors today. The physician who is in attendance on Mr. Pickford said he was in a very bad state of health." Police Commissioner Bucroc said' to-night that he had intrusted the investigation of the death of Miss Thomas to Captain of Police Catrou, of the district. When questioned concerning the case Captain Catrou said he had not concluded his inquiry.

He had received the testimony of the waiters, porters arid chambermaids at the Ritz Hotel, where Miss Thomas is said to have taken the poison, but had been unable as yet to obtain Mr, Pickford's account of the affair. Severaf of the Montmartre resorts which Miss Thomas visited Saturday night were subjected to a close investigation today. NATIVE OF PENNSYLVANIA. New York, Sept. 10.

No word of the death of Olive Thomas, who died this morning in Paris, had been received here this afternoon by her brother, James Duffy, who lives here, or by the motion picture concern which employed her. Her real name was Olive Elain Duffy. She was 22 years old, having been born October 20, 1898, at Charleroi, Pennsylvania. After attending high schools in Pittsburgh she began work in a department store there. A friend from New York, attracted by her beauty and voice, induced her to come to this city in 1913 to study music.

Soon she attracted notice of theatrical men and was placed in the cast of the "Midnight Frolic" here in 1914, appearing as "The Cannon Girl." The next season she was in both the "Follies" and the "Frolic" and later posed for magazine covers by noted In 1917 Miss Thomas left the stage to enter the motion picture field in California, the same year marrying Jack Pickford, motion picture actor.

From a Staff Chicago, Sept. 10. Republican members of the Senatorial'In- vestigating Committee took the first step today to switch the inquiry into campaign funds from the charges of Governor Cox to the reports that liquor interests are raising large sums to support the Democratic nominee for President. THINK CHARGES DISPROVED, Convinced that they have exhausted all sources of information regarding the Republican "barrel," and that they have completely disproved the Cox charges, the majority members of the committee will vote to adjourn tomorrow to meet 10 days later in Pittsburgh or New York. At that time there Is every indication that they will probe into the affairs of the Democratic management and with particular reference to allegations that Governor Cox's campaign is being financed in large measure by wet organizations.

The committee was to have Wound up its affairs here this afternoon, but delay on the part of certain witnesses int getting here makes necessary another: meeting tomorrow. Among those to testify tomorrow will be two girls employed at the Internal Revenue office at Aberdeen, South Dakota, where it has been alleged the internal revenue collector, in violation of the law, levied assessments for the Democratic campaign fund on all the girl employes of that office. Senator Edge, of New Jersey," one of the Republican members of the committee, left Chicago this afternoon. Before starting for his train he issued a statement in which he declared that the entire fabric ot the Cox charges had fallen to the ground. The situation, he declared, "is unparalleled in American politics." REED SCORES EDGE.

When told of Edge's statement Senator Reed, Democratic- member of the committee, said: "It is indecent for any member of the committee to announce a conclusion concerning this investigation, which has just begun." We reconvene in 10 days. I would be utterly lacking in knowledge bf the ethics of the situation were I to express my views now." A final effort on the part of the Democratic members to show that the money-raising efforts of the Republicans actually are far in excess of the sum of mentioned by Republican Treasurer Upham as the maximum was made at today's session. Referring to the fact that the paid money raisers in Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan and several other States had admitted on the stand that they had expanded the official quotas in order toibe sure. of getting the amounts of the quotas themselves, Senator Reed showed that the average decree of this expansion, which' varied from 50 per cent, in the case of Indiana to 166 per Cent, in the case of Iowa, was about 93 per cent. "So that," he declared, "if this same average of expansion has been followed in all the States, the real total of the quotas instead Of being $4,800,000 would be $0,264,000." i Called back to the stand today, Treasurer Upham made a statement which served materially to clear up many aspects of the Republican fund plan which have hitherto been obscure.

He declared that if the plan works according to schedule there will have passed through his hands between June 14 last and the November election a total of $4,820,000, divided as follows: For the national campaign, $3,079,000. For the State campaigns, but collected under joint arrangement with certain States, $1,200,000. For Senatorial campaigns, $200,000. For Congressional campaigns, OTHER SUMS NOT INCLUDED. These sums, however, do not include collected prior to the Republican Nor' do they include the sums which the States not in the joint collection arrangement raising for their own campaigns.

A mild sensation was sprung during the cross-examination of Mr. Upham when Senator Pomerene brought to light the fact -that prior to the Republican convention the Republican National Committee had paid the salaries and expenses of a number of speakers employed on various Chautauqua circuits "to spread the gospel of Republicanism." In swinging the spotlight to the Democratic campaign fund, the Republican members grilled Edmond Moore, Governor Cox's personal representative, who had resumed the stand tor wind up his presentation of leads in support of the Cox His attention was called to a letter sent out by the Association Opposed to Prohibition urging support for Governor Cox. This letter contained the name of Mr. Moore as one of the active members of the organization. The witness denied categorically that he had anything to do with it and declared that his name had been used without authority.

He was asked concerning a letter of similar character sent out by the Federated Liquor Dealers of New Jersey, of which George Carroll, of Newark, is president, declaring that Governor Cox was a pronounced "wet," and as such entitled to the support of the organization. It further described the nomination of Governor Cox as a great victory, attributed in. great degree to the action of their trade organization here in New Jersey and elsewhere. Carroll, who is also said to be president of the National Retail Liquor Dealers' Association, has been twice put under subpoena by the committee, but (Continued on Page 2, Column 4.) WOMAN BEPOBTED LOST WAS DETROIT HEIRESS WMrs. Kuehling Had Part Interest In Estate Valued At More Than $1,000,000.

EFFORTS TO FIND BODY FAIL Divorced Husband Reaches Washington To Assist Police, Who Get Report That Victim Had Been Treated For Poisoning. From The Sun Bureau. Washington, Sept. 10. Mrs.

Gertrude Viger Kuehling, who, fier husband says, was drowned while canoeing on the Potomac river Monday night, was one of the heirs to the $1,094,000 estate of Elizabeth" Chapelton, of Detroit, according to information obtained by the police today. She was a divorcee, and her former husband, Howard B. Osgood, of Detroit, came tq Washington today to assist the police in the effort to recover the body from the river. These new points of information in the Kuehling drowning story caused renewed interest in the case. Kuehling maintains that he and his wife were canoeing, when the' boat was overturned suddenly and that before he could res-Cue his wife she had disappeared beneath the waters.

Kuehling was found, crying for assistance shortly after he said the accident had happened." The report of Mrs Kuehling's wealth has cleared upsome of the mystery surrounding the couple. They came to Washington some months ago, rented temporary quarters just outside the city and lived in apparent luxury, although Kuehling did not work. Mrs. Kuehling always paid the bills and appeared to have plenty of money. Kuehling's story about the majfriage was supported by the police investigations.

The license was found where he said it was. The issuance of the license in Michigan and the marriage some months ago was proved by the Kuehling will be kept in custody until the body is recovered, He is undergoing examination every day, but he stands by his original story. Osgood, the first husband, said his interest in his former wife's death was because of their 3-year-old child. When the divorce was granted Osgood took the child and one of the sisters of the dead woman has kept it. Osgood offered a reward for the recovery of the body.

He refused to discuss the case, saying he received too much publicity during the divorce proceedings. The police now are pursuing several leads for further information. They have received one report that Mrs. Kuehling had sought a divorce, and that only a few days before her reported drowning she had been treated at a hospital for poisoning. They know that Kuehling, under the Maryland law, would be entitled to some of the wealth left by his wife.a They want also to test Kuehling's swimming ability and his ability to control a canoe in treacherous waters.

They also want to interview men at the river boathouse who are reported to have said they did not see any woman in Kuehling's company when he rented the canoe Monday night. KILLS WIFE AT BABY'S CRIB World War Veteran Then Ends Own Life. Elizabeth, N. Sept. 10.

As she was standing over her seven-month-old baby who was cooing in its cradle, Mrs. Elizabeth Gertrude Parry, 22 years old, was shot dead today by her husband, George Parry, who then committed suicide. Despondency over his condition is ascribed by the police as the cause. Barry was a veteran of the World War and suffered for months from the effects of shell shock and County Physician Westcott will perform an autopsy to ascertain the exact condition of Parry's brain. Parry rose this morning rather 'late and went out for a walk.

When he returned his wife was in the kitchen talking to the baby. Neighbors say that Parry must have shot almost immediately upon entering, for a report was heard as soon as he had gone into the house. A second shot was heard a few seconds later. Mrs. Parry was found lifeless beside the crib, her baby crying.

Upstairs Parry's body was found. He, too, was dead. A bullet had penetrated his brain. TURKS BESIEGE TARSUS Nationalists Attack Birthplace Of Apostle Paul. 'By the Associated Press.

They must abide by the terms of their contract solemnly entered Into or abido by the consequences. This Is the burden of a communication sent today by President Wilson to representatives of the miners at Scranton, 1 who had petitioned the Executive to reconvene the scale committees for the purpose of correcting certain "inequities' in" the award of the Anthracite Coal Commission. What the miners actually want, of course, is an increase of their wages on a 27 per cent.

instead of 17 per cent, as provided for by the commission. That is all that is meant by "inequities." At the time the commission's award was made public the insurgent miners threatened, in a telegram addressed to the President, to quit work if the higher wage scale were not put into effect by Presidential edict, ignoring the fact that threats rarely get tlie desired result from Woodrow Wilson. THREAT DID NOT WORK. But this particular group of workers 1 did not have to wait long to find that Mr. Wilson could not be moved by such processes.
