DANES AND GIBSON [QUESTION BOSTON TALK NAVAL ARMS Mot MacDooald, Ambassador Admits, for Discussion London, June 37 UM—Ambasador Charles G. Dawes and Ambassador Hugh Gibson discussed metheds of approach on the naval disarmament problem with Premier Ramssy Mac- Donald on Tuesday, but reached no definite form, Ambamador Dawes announced today in a press confer. ence. Announcements regarding mat. ters of procedure in attacking the naval problem must be made by these in authority in the countriea conoerned and not by ambassadors, who are merely agents he sald. Am- bazsador Dawes considered that his discussions with Ambassador Gibson, ‘who left for Brussels today, were of the greatet value because of Mr, Gibson's intimate knowledge of the disarmament qUestian, In this first of his weekly Amerl. can prgss conferences, the ambassa- dor issued the follewing statement: “Mr. Gibson arrived in London on Monday on instructions from Wash- ington to discuss the problem of naval disarmament with me, which ‘we did from the Washington stand- oint and in the light of his Geneva xperience, “His intimate knowledge of the work of two Geneva conferences as well”as his long contact with the naval question makes his opinion of great value to all of those who have not had such experience. “In our interview with the prime minister on Tuesday such an ex- change of informal conversation was had as was invisaged at the last Geneva mecting, but the discussion which dealt with methodseof ap- proach, reached no definite form.” - METEOR SEEN IN BRISTOL Dusiness Man Reports Seeing Ball of Fire With Blazing Tall Pass Through Atmosphere.

The question. ing. conducted by Doyle, began at 1 P m. Rocco, calm but slightly dbfiant, was immaculately drossed in a neat blue serge suit, and wore a white Panama fat with the brim turned down. Before police located him in the barber shop he had had time to get a shave, His black shoes ahone in the sun. Rocco was apprehended by the two local ofticers while Detective Sergeants Thomas Caputte and Du- vid Daley, who had come here from New York, to aid in the hunt, were conducting an independent search for him. Arvested Nine Times While the assistant district attor- ney was questioning Rocco, police announced that a check of the gangsters police record showed that he had been arrested nine times since 1916 on charges varying from statutory offenses to murder. The records showed that he was acquit- ted last year of the murder of John J. Donovan, who was slain in Soutn Boston in connection with a rum case. Records also showed that des- pite his numerous arrests, Rocco never had served time and never had been fined except in one case where he asseased $10 on a atatutory charge. Detendant Married Rocco is 32 years old and married, a small man with dark chestnut hair and light brown eyes. A few minutes after the gangster arrived at the district attorney’s of- fice, Doyle announced he would not question Rocco thoroughly until the two New York detectives returned from Sharen.

June 27 (M—Two men, described to police as those who ac- companied Frank Marlow, night club owner, on his death ride, were being sought here and in Boston today, Police Commissioner Whalen sald he had learned from four men and a woman who dined with Marlow last Monday night, that a telephone call had been used to lure the vietim into the death car. Said He Had Date The witnesses said Marlow was called to the telephone and returned saying he had a date. As the party emerged from the mid-town restaur- ant, Marlow was joined by two men and the three entered a blue closed car. Marlow was found dying near Flushing, Queens, 45 minutes later with three bullets through his head. A blue closed car similar to the one which Marlow was seen to entor was found abandoned in Brooklyn yesterday with two bullet holos through the rcar window. It had been stolen. Mariow's dinner companions wera Fdward L. Lewis, of Boston; Johnny Wilson, former middleweight boxing champlon; Al Seigel, a dancing in- structor, Ignatius Coppa, preprietor of the restaurant where the party qined and Mary Seiden 19 years old, Getting * your money’s worth of tire OT one tire buyer in a thousand a tire from & dancer, known as “Mickey of the Rendesvous” a night club in which Marlow once had an interest. Al Held As Witncases All were held under §8§0,000 bail each as material witneases and lodged in separate jails when unavle to furnish bond. Commissioner Whalen said he un. derstood that Marlow had been on bad terms with Al Capone, Chicago gangster, now in jail in Philadelphia over the slaying of Frank Yale, a year ago in Brooklyn because Mar- low became too ambitious in the beer running business. He suid however, there was nothing to con. nect the slaying of Marlow to Ca- pone. Detectives sent to Boston were in. structod to investigate a telegraphic remittance of $3,500 sent to Lewis. Trio At Races Police learned thut Marlow, Lewin and Coppa had attended the races at Aqueduct track Monday after. noon where Lewis lost $2.700 on a “hot tip” furnished by Mariow. Commissioned Whalen ordered a round up of all Broadway characters who were believed to have known Marlow or had any information concerning him.

The police had nothing to say con. cerning reports that Boston “ga sters” had plenty of reason for t: ing Marlow “for a ride.” One ve. port was that Marlow had welched on race track bets and another, the more popular, that he aroused en- mity through his efforts to flood Boston with Philadelphia beer. New York Detective Sergeants Thomas Caputto and David Daley ran across one tip early today that started Brooklyn. N. Y., authorities on a tour of the Italian resorts thero.
