Chicago, Oct. 9.-With insurance up
on her life amounting to $4,000, Marie
Defenbach, aged %, died August 25
in a boarding house on La Sale avenue
under conditions which the police BE-
Geve indicate a plot to swindle an in
surance company and two insurance
societies, If they do not point to muir
der. Upon bench warrants issued by
Judge Gibbons, two persons said to
be implicated IN the case-Dr. August
NJ. Unger and Frank NJ Smiley, a de-
tective- have been arrested. The al
legged conspiracy has been investigated
with searching care by a private de-
tective agency, by the attorneys and
detectives Of the insurance companies
and latterly by the states attorney
himself The detectives. believe that
a conspiracy was concOcted and that
Miss Defenbach was originally one Of
the alleged conspiratOrs. She had ex-
pected that her death was to be
feigned and that another body was
TO play the passive role of her corpse.
Instead Of that, real death came to
her.
Last April Miss Defenbaeh applied
TO the New York Life Insurance COM
pany for a $4,000 policy. This was
refused by the company as was also
an application for an $1,000 policy, on
the ground that she was not in posses
sion Of sufficient property interests TO
warrant 50 large a risk, although she
was examined and declared to be in
perfect health. In July Miss Defen-
bach succeeded in obtaining from the
New York company a policy for 5000
and this formed part OF the estate she
left About the middle Of August Miss
Defenbach also secured insurance in
the Canadian Order Of FOresters to
the amount Of $1,000. About the same
time she took out a policy in the
Knights and Ladies Of Honor for 81
coo. Two weeks later she was dead,
leaving a viii which directed that q
part of her policies should be paid to
Frank II. Smiley, her 'afianced hus-
band, - and that her body be cremated.
'Her death at a boarding house in La
Sale avenue was attended by the most
horrible agony.
Without much delay proceedings
were begun to recover the value Of the
insurance policies Miss Defenbach had
left. Owing to the unusual circum-
stances surrounding her death, the
hurried embalming of the body, fol
lowed the next day by cremation, pay
ments Of the policies were refused
and immediate steps were taken to
trace the woman's career during the
last few months Of her life.

Springfield, No, Oct. THE federal
grand jury at this place has returned
indictments against nine Wright cOun-
~ men, who are alleged to have been
engaged in an organized swindle. Oz-
ing to the prominence Of the parties,
the indictments have caused a sensa-
ton. Prosecuting Attorney Ball, Of
Wright county, is one Of the indicted
parties. Ball is the man who 50 sue
cessfully prosecuted the train rob
bers and sent Jack Kennedy, Bill
Ryan and others to the penitentfary.
At the very time he was prosecuting
these train robbers, it is alleged, he
was IN a rObbing deal himself Of no
mean Importance. The scheme Of the
alleged swindlers was cunning one.
Their plan was to pick up a man with
no property, deed him a quarter sec
ton of rocks and hills, and one Of the
crowd would make a statement as 70
the wealth Of the man, placing his rs
sets as high as $4,000. In this way
they succeeded in getting large bills
Of goods from wholesale houses In
Kansas City and st. Louis. After the
goods were received the merchant
failed and the profits were divided. II
is said their scheme was worked to
the amount OF $4,000. The indict-
ment charges the use Of the mails for
fraudulent purposes.

NAY RESORT To BOYCOTT.

Chicago, Oct. I'D. J. Campau,
democratic national committeeman
from Michigan, who is associated
with ex-GOv. Stone and Senator Cor
man at the New York headquarters,
prepared a statement for publication
in which he threatens a boycott and
says information deemed reliable has
reached the democratic national com
mittee that 1t is the design Of the
republican national committee at q
later day In the campaign to cause
manufacturers, miners and others to
issue public notice and to notify their
employees that in case Bryan and Ste
venson are elected they viii shut down
their business and discharge their
men. Mr.. CamPau says the only way
to meet these attacks is to issue to the
democracy of the United States an ad-
dress over the signatures Of the dem
ocratic national committee holding
blamable firms and corporations as
per list In the possession Of the com
mittee, giving their names, location
and business and specific measures
therefor, requesting the democracy
and their allies to boycott such firms
and corporations on the ground Of IL
legitimate interference In the POliti-
cal affairs Of the nation through the

FacztIon- ar Watering Places

Quincy, III, Oct. 10.-The special
train bearing ". J. Bryan and party
reached Quincy Tuesday before either
Mr.. Bryan or anyone In the party had
arisen There was a throng Of people
at the station included among them
being a number of marching clubs
who acted as an escort to the speak
ing grounds. Mr.. Bryan spoke on the
general issues Of the campaign, say
ing IN part:
As I pass along the street and as
look into the faces OF some OF the care
worn women who never get a chance
to take a summer vacation at some
pleasant watering place. I wonder how
the husbands and sons OF those women
can find Il in-their hearts to support
the policies which are to-day amassing
great wealth IN the hands Of a few peo-
pie with a rapidity never known before
In the history OF the world. I wonder
how Il IS that men who are not inter
ested In getting their hands into other
peoples pockets but merely In keeping
other peoples hands out Of their own
pockets can support the republican ticket
while to-day the republican party denies
the principle OF equal rights to all and
special privileges to none and makes this
government OF the syndicates. by the
syndicates and for the syndicates.
He paid especial attention to the
farmers, saying that even though
there had been an advance in the price
Of some farm products, the increase
in the price Of articles Of consumption
had been so much greater as to far
more than neutralize the advance in
farm commodities. Taking up the
plea that money from this country is
being loaned in Europe, Mr.. Bryan
said this could only be true because
opportunities for investment were
being 1essened in the United States.
