DIR. F. TuAYER ARRESTED.
A Prominent Physician of FIT. Wayne
in Trouble.

FIT. WAYNE. Sept. 3o-Special.-
There has been a fever Of excitement in
medical circles here for the past few
days. 1t reached climax tonight when
DR.. Frederick Thayer of Thayer's lying
in institute was arrested, charged with
the death of Miss Emma Baer.
She gave birth to child in the insti-
tute and two weeks later he discharged
her as convalescent. Her mother took
her home in a carriage and the girl died
shortly after being removed from the
vehicle.
An affidavit filed today makes Dr.
Thayer criminauy responsible for the
girls death. He waived preliminary
examination after making a denial and
was released on a bond Of 81, 900.
He will also be charged with cruelty
and with inhumanly deserving babies on
the doorsteps.
Thayer's lying-in hospital is the most
prominent of its kind in northern Indi-
ana. and patients from other states are
frequently at his home.
The doctor is about fifty years old, and
although attempts have been made TO
prosecute him before he has always been
too shrewd for the prosecuting attorney.

AACS OAA tnc
NOBLESVILLE, Sept 2S-Special.-
Several weeks ago an attempt was made
TO wreck a north-bound Panhandle
passenger train one mile south Of this
city by placing eight or ten large rail-
road ties on the track. Fortunately the

held in custody for several
days and then released, as no
evidence could be secured against him.
A detective in the employ of the Penn
sylVania company has been at work on
the case since Potorff's release and yes
terday evening he succeeded in getting
a confession from the young man in
which he makes a clean breast of every
thing. Potorff acknowledged that no
one was implicated in the plot except
himself and he says he attempted TO
wreck the train out of revenge against
the Pennsylvania company.
He asserts that some weeks ago he at
tempted to steal ride on Panhandle
passenger when one Of the trainmen
kicked him Off This angered him and

A COLD FLOODED MURDER.
John O'Hnrrow shot and Killed by
Daniel Thompson.

MARSHALL. Ill. Oct. Especial
John O'Harrow was murdered in cold
blood yesterday by Daniel Thompson.
Both are residents of Wabash town
ship and O'Harrow was rather a tough
character. Daniel Thompson is admin
istrator OF his deceased fathers estate
His mother wished him removed and
came to Marshall Saturday for that
purpose. Dan forbade her coming and
threatened to kill any one who brought
her.
O'Harrow was persuaded to bring her
and Thompson carried out his threat,
which O'Harrow had not heard of, by
coming upon him as he was seated in
a chair In a store at the postoffice and
shooting him without warning.
Five shots were fired. two OF which
took effect. O'Harrow died at o'clock
this morning.
Thompson came in and gave himself
up while a sheriff's posse was search
ing for him. The people OF the neigh
borhood are very bitter against him, for.
while O'Harrow was little liked. they
say they do not approve Of any man be-
ing shot down like a dog for simply
granting woman's request.

THE wRATTAN MURDERERS.
DndImInished Efforts Being Made to
Apprehend Them.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 80. - Special -
The interest in the Wrattan murders
continues here undated.
Every clew is being run to It's f1nality,
and there is more intelligence mani
tested by the detectives than was APP
parent at first. The Gazette relates the
following:
"A singular incident occurred about
eight miles northeast of the city last
night which may assist in unraveling the
great murder mystery. As searching
party consisting of three officers and a
citizen were homeward bound after
long ride in quest of evidence their at
tentiOn was called 10 a ringing sound
which appeared as though the wheels OF
the carriage had struck a rolling horse
shoe Surprising that one of the horses
had lost shoe. a search was instituted.
Not finding anything that would have
produced the ringing noise. the party
proceeded on their homeward course
As the start was made solitary horse
man seemed TO rise from the ground be-
fore them a hundred yards and wheel
ing set off at rapid gallop. The OFF,
GERS knowing that no road led into the
one they We're travelling, and struck by
the strange maneuvers Of the horseman,
gave pursuit Seeing that he was being
pursued. the rider increased his speed
road began. Up hill down hill at a reck-
less rate the man rode, neither looking to
the right or left, and when the top of a
long. steep hill was reached the pur-
suers supposed the rider would check
his speed and be overtaken. But he did
not do this. Horse and rider plunged
down the long decline at a frightful rate,
and close pursued, he wheeled into a
wooded road and was lost from view.
He could not be followed and paid no at
tention TO a couple of shots intended to
bring him TO a halt At the bottom of
the hin he met wagon in which were
four persons.
These he avoided by shying to the
right, as though not wishing to be seen.
What could have been his motive? Was
he a confederate of the murderers or
could he have been one Of the villains
himself? He must have seen the lanterns
OF the officers as they searched for the
horseshoe. and riding noiselessly to a
safe distance outlined their purpose and
attempted to escape unnoticed in the
darkness
He also might have been on his way
10 rendezvous Of the villains, and meet
ing the carriage did not dare TO pass. In
all IL was a mysterious incident"
IL Is stated tonight that a web Of evil
dence is being formed that may lead to
the arrest of two persons as the muir
derers.
