LonA1N, Ohio, May 1.-THE body Of

sThe discolorations on the neck and

it was choking that caused death. The

JOSEPH AND CORA WEEKS
ON TRIAL FOR MURDER
Man and Wife Charged with Kill

Last Labor Day.
MUCH INTEREST IN CASE
,ecial to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
BEDFORD, Ind, Dec. 16.-Joseph Weeks
and his wife, Cora Weeks, were brought
before the Lawrence Circuit Court to-day
to be tried for the murder of Mrs. Susanna
Ireland, the aged mother of Mrs Weeks
Mrs. Ireland was killed by bullet fired
into her head. the tragedy occurring on
Labor day at 10 O'Clock in upstairs room
of a two-story building, situated in one Of
the most public streets in the business poi-
ton of the city. The report was given out
that the victim had committed suicide,
which was taken for granted at first report,
but investigation aroused suspicion of foul
play and Weeks and his wife were arrested
charged with the crime.
An autopsy by a number of Bedford
physicians was held and resulted in an
agreement that 1T would have been impos-
sible for Mrs. Ireland TO have shot herself,
the ball. which at first was thought to
have entered the forehead. but an examina-
ton by the physicians brought out the
fact that she was shot from behind
On this evidence the grand jury took the
case up and found a bill against Weeks
and his wife for the murder of their aged
mother. Weeks was taken to Blooming
ton and confined in the Monroe county JAIL
while Mrs. Weeks was kept in the Bedford
Jail. Both Weeks and his wife have en-
phatically declared their innocence of the
crime and assert that Mrs. Ireland took
her own life. although they can give no
reason why she should have done so.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
HARTFORD CITY. Ind, Dec. 16-A team
of horses hitched to nitroglycerin wagon
containing 4SO quarts ran away from the
Indiana Nitroglycerin Company's magazine,
north of this city, this evening. which Gre
ated a panic among the men employed. The
wagon was being loaded at the factory
when the team, which was not tied. became
frightened and started through the woods
over logs and stumps. The cans containing
the nitroglycerin were not even fastened.
and they were thrown all over the wagon.
The driver of the team, Arthur Zigler. who
was in the factory, started and ran, and
all the men employed there started through
the woods to put much distance between
them and the explosion. expected every
second, as they could The team ran
until the wagon struck a car truck
and stopped it. 1t was fully a half
hour before the men could return to the
plant they had put so far behind them.
Besides the nitroglycerin in the wagon
there was 400 quarts in the factory and 400
more in the magazine. and had the stuff on
the wagon exploded all would have started.
That the entire plant and all the men en-
ployed there were not wiped off the earth
is miraculous. The men and their families
are rejoicing tonight that they are alive.

field, on Nov. g. and since that time he has
neither been seen nor heard from.
His strange disappearance was only yes
terday reported to the police and they are
unable to give any information at the pres
ent time to the young mans where
abouts.
1t is believed by his friends that over
work brought about a mental breakdown
which is responsible for his continued abb
sence. He came to Indianapolis from his
home in Minneapolis last September and
found employment as an elevator boy at the
Claypool Hotel, working at night and at
tending the Indiana Dental College during
the daytime. On Nov. he left his position
at the Claypool Hotel. being unable to
longer stand the work on account of the
loss of sleep necessary for him to attend
his classes at college. At that time he
seemed rather despondent. but on the day
he disappeared he was apparently in the
best OF spirits.
1t is known that on the last day he was
seen by his friends he had over 800 on his
person and foul play has been suspected.
The young man left all his personal effects
In his room, and for that reason il is not be-
lieved that he intended leaving the city.
Several OF his friends said yesterday that he
was in love with a young woman here in
the city and thought possibly that quarrel
with her added to his condition from over
work might have caused him to leave
for parts unknown. All kinds of rumors
are afloat among the young mans ac-
quaintances, and IL was hinted yesterday
that he had been murdered. A colored stu
dent, a classmate Ii is said, told yesterday
that If he desired he could locate Anderson
within half hour. but on being questioned
later he denied having made any such state
ment. 1t is the general opinion, however,
that Anderson is wandering the country
in a demented condition, and the police in
all nearby cities will be notified to be on
the lookout for him. Inquiries made in
Minneapolis last night failed to locate An
dersons parents, but further efforts to find
them will be made to-day.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-The report of
Messrs. Conrad and Bonaparte on the
charges made by S. w. Tulloch. formerly
cashier of the Washington city postoffice
against the Administrations OF this Office,
WAS maue pubic to-day.'- Under instruc-

as follows: "As a result of our inquiry
in the Tulloch charges and of the consid-

'First-The discussion of the Tulloch
charges have revealed the existence of de-
plorable and gravely discreditable abuses
during the years 1898, 1899 and 1900 in the
Washington postoffice. and the office of the
first assistant postmaster general.
"Second-These abuses involved conduct
on the part of the various public officials
which was certainly often illegal, and may
have been sometimes criminal, but such
offenses, if committed, were in all cases
committed more than three years before
we were ordered to investigate the
informed more than three years before Mr..
Tullochs interview of May 1 last.
"Third-The evidence laid before us sug-
gests the possibility and even probability,
but does not prove, that abuses may have
continued both in the department and in
the postoffice subsequently to the early
summer of 1900. when We lose sight of them,
and that in connection Herewith criminal
acts may have been committed within the
period of limitations.

CITY CALLS OATS POOR;
WANTS SELLER INDICTED
Controller Dunn Charges Proni-
nent Dealer with Making
False Affidavit.
BEFORE THE GRAND JURY

The grand jury yesterday investigated
the case of Oscar Rouse, of the firm of Will
liam Rouse & Son, who, ii is alleged. at
tempted to defraud the city out of $1,000 for
1900 bushels of oats, which were delivered
to the former Board of Public Safety for
the fire department. 1t was alleged by the
city that the oats were below the standard
contracted for, and City Controller Dunn
refused to pay the bill.
The investigation was prompted by Con-
trolIer Dunn with view to fridicting Rouse
for making false affidavit in his statement
as to the quality of the oats. Chief Coots,
of the fire department, and the inspector
of the Board of Trade testified before the
grand jury yesterday.
When Controller Dunn refused to pay the
bill Rouse brought suit against the city,
asking $1,000 damages. He alleged that the
feed was examined by William H. Long,
purchasing agent under the former admin
istration, and pronounced satisfactory The
feed was then distributed among the differ
ent engine houses and most of it has been
fed to the horses. He further alleged that
Dunn offered to settle the bill for 1900,
which they refused. After a careful con-
sideration of the facts in the case the grand
jury continued the investigation until this
afternoon, when verdict will probably be
reached.
