FARMER CHARGED
WITH MURDER

Colchester, Conn.,, Aug 31.-That
Gershon b. Marx, now held in the
Norwich county Jail, is the perpetra-
tor of series of cold blooded murders
is the belief of officials who yesterday
began a systematic search for bodies
on the Marx farm. Four murders and
an attempt to poison another man can,
1t is believed by these officials, be
traced to Marx.
The bodies of two of Marks alleged
victims, Joe Pavol and Joe Palm, have
been found. Marx is awaiting trial
charged with the murder of Pavol.
The two bodies for which the search
was begun yesterday are those of an
Is year old boy and a Hebrew peddler.
The man who it is alleged an attempt
was made to poison was the one who
discovered PavoIs body.

DECIDING BATTLE OF THE
WAR APPEARS TO BE ON

Berlin, Aug. 31.-A dispatch from
Liaoyang to the Lokal Anzeiger timed
1925 a. m. yesterday says:
what appears to be the deciding
battle began at a. m. Since then
the artillery has been laundering and
rife fire has been rolling necessarily.
The encircling heights resemble fire
emitting mountains. The Japanese
began the attack east of Liaoy ang.
along the Taitse river, but were re
pulsed.
''The firing is now specially heavy
south and southwest Of Liaoyang
One can no longer distinguish indi
vidual detonations. The Wybore
regiment, of which Emperor William
II is honorary chief, is deploying up-
on the battlefield. The Russian
army is full of confidence.
''The total strength Of the combat
ants engaged is estimated at over
100000 men. The battle will prob
ably continue for several days."

A GREAT CHARITY.
Mr.. RockefeIIer's Attempt to Save
Younu Children.

young GnIIuFSH.
New York Aug. 31.-WOrk has been
begun on the construction Of the $1O,-
600 900 memorial to little John Rookie
felier Mccormick of Chicago, who
passed away in his babyhood three
years ago. He was dearly beloved by
his grandfather, John D. Rockefeller,
and, because the grandson was the
victim of a common infant disease, the
grandfather determined to devote his
millions to the discovery of means to
prevent and to cure the disease. He
has already set aside $1,25O,0OO for the
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Re-
search. which will be the largest insti-
tuition of it's kind in the world, and 1t
lis understood he is planning ultimately
to devote eight or ten times that
amount to this great enterprise.
Now that work has actually begun
on the first laboratory and animal
house, some of the details OF the enter
prise are made public.
S. j. Murphy, who, as the almoner,
or manager, of all the Rockefeller char
tiles and benevolences, has represent
ed the magnate in planning the Rookie
Teller institute, says that work on the
buildings will be hurried SO as to have
them ready for occupancy in the
spring. He adds that Mr.. Rockefeller
is greatly interested in the work, and
has given a carte blanche order to
spare no necessary expense in fully
determining the value of animals as
means to ends in medical and surgical
research.
AS Mr.. Rockefeller's grandson was
a victim to summer complaint, the
institute will at once make study on
that and allied diseases. Early and
exhaustive experiments will be made
in seeking a remedy for dysentery. I'm
ORDER" said an eminent New York
physician who will be identified with
the new institution, that experiments
may be made with the greater accu-
racy, it is planned to have several
monkeys as patients as soon as the
buildings are ready for occupancy.
Special attention will be paid to milk
and water supplies, as it is believed
that the prime source of this disease
is in milk and water.
"In the center Of the building will
be large pool or tank of graded
depth, where the large animals will be
bathed. Provision is made for douche,
Turkish and other baths, one of the
early experiments being the water
cure for all sorts of skin or eruptive
affections"

STRIKE TO CONTINUE.
Idle Butchers at Chicago Receive Some
announcement


Chicago, Aug. 31.-A thousand stock
handlers employed at the stockyards
last night voted to join the strikers.
This IS the first step taken to extend
the strike to every trade affiliated with
the Is packing industries. The union
officials expect to call out the switch
men and other railroad men employed
at the yards.
Other developments of the stock
yards strike yesterday are as follows:
The strike leaders held meeting
and refused to declare the strike off,
after which President Donnelly of the
butchers union issued proclamation
and declared that Startling facts" are
about to be given the public.
The packers prepared to move meats
to Fulton and other markets, declared
that their business is 70 per cent of
normal and that they have over $4,000
men at work.
The packing house teamsters decid-
ed not to return to work so long as the
strike of the butchers is on.
About 200 Of the strikers resumed
work at the yards.
