ing on statements made in afHdavits
by Rufus Cantreu, row serving sen
tence at the Jeffersonville reformatory,
officers today accompanied Cantreu to
the Union chapel cemetery near Nora,
eleven miles from Indianapolis. and
two graves were opened. 1t was ex-
pected, according to statements of Can
trel, that there would be found the
body of Miss Carrie Sewage, an In
dianapOlis school teacher who disap-
peared from the Union state hospital
March IL, 1900 and was never found.
According to the story of Cantrell,
Two ghOuls found the woman wander
ing on country road as they were re-
turning from a Sraye-robbing eXpedi-
ton on the morning of her disappear
ance. They Invited her into the buggy,
found she was demented and took her
to a cabin in Hamilton county, where
she was kept for weeks. She was
moved to a hut IN Indianapolis and
when the search for her became too
close, the ghouls chloroformed her and
buried the body in the Union chapel
cemetery. CantreB tonight was uncer-
tain as to which grave she was buried
in. He said she had been placed in a
grave that had been robbed several
hours before.
Miss Selvage's brother was in the
party. Two graves were opened and
one was found to have been disturbed.
as Cantrell said it would be found, with
the rough box broken open and the
coffin turned upside down. The body
in it, however, was not recognized by
Sewage. Other graves will be opened
tomorrow. CantreH also claims to know
the secret of the disappearance of Ken

issued by the foreign office. giving the
correspondence between Great Britain

German Canadian tariff discussion. The
