SITTING EVIDENCE
Grand Jury at Bedford Not
Through With Schater
Case.
RUMOR NOT CONFIRMED
Officials Decline to Give Reliability
to Report That New Man Is
Under Suspicion.
RUMOR NOT CONFIRMED
No Sign OF Adjournment of the In.
quisitOrial Body and Investiga-
tiOn Is Thorough.

Bedford, Ind, July 16.-The grand
jury in the Schafer murder case con-
tinues to near the testimony of wit
nesses. There is no sign of adjourn
ment. The investigator is being con-
Quoted with great thoroughness, and
there is hope that when the grand
jury makes its final report to Judge
Wilson the mystery surrounding the
killing of the pretty Latin teacher will
be cleared away. William Cook, who
found the dead BODY in his cab shed,
was before the grand jury for long
time, and he gave The jury a definite
idea of the surroundings of the shed
where the body of the murdered girl
was found. Coroner Plummer was
closeted with the grand jury for sew
eral hours. The rumor that a new
man, of This city, is under suspicion,
is not confirmed by the officials.

GETTING TO WORK
ouatemaIan Ants Go Right After the
Cotton Boil WeeviI.

Washington, July 16.-O. F. Cook,
the discoverer Of the Guatemalan boil
weevil-eating ants, has wired the de-
partment Of agriculture from Texas
that the new ants are destroying cot
ton boil worms and are attacking SIM
liar injurious insects with even
even greater avidity than they do the
boil weevil. Another important fact
IL that the ants do not injure at all
the ladybird larvae, which are bene-
f1cial insects.
IL Mr.. Cook reports that the agricul-
tural value of the ants now depends
chiefly upon acclinatization and rap
idity Of propagation. These matters
are being investigated.

Fatal Fourth Of July Injuries.

Indianapolis, July 1.-two reports
of fatal lockjaw cases as result Of
Fourth of July celebrations have been
made to the coroner. Two boys have
died from this cause. William Holzer,
fourteen years old, injured himself
In the hand by the accidental dis
charge Of Flobert rifle. Tetanus or
lockjaw, resulted and he died in great
agony. The other case was that of
Herbert Smell, fifteen years old, who
was injured in the hand by the pre-
mature explosion of a cannon crack
er. In both cases the wounds were
dressed and the boys had, apparently,
fully recovered before the terrible dis
ease developed.

The date has not been definitely de-
termined, but it will be either the 18th
or 26th of August. These affairs have
proved very enjoyable, and are looked
forward to with much pleasure by
those who are fortunate enough to re-
political significance as many Of the
party leaders are represented. This
time invitations will probably be ex-
tended to all the candidates on the
state ticket as well as the state Of
ficials and others in position of party
leadership. The occasion is expected
to prove one of the most enjoyable Of
the kind yet held.

NEiGHBORS AT SEA
The Starbuck Mystery Has Developed
New Phase.

NEW HnaSSs
Greensboro, Ind, July 16-Greens-
boro people are more at sea over the
mystery surrounding the death OF
Mrs. William Starbuck and her baby
last Saturday night than at any time
since the tragedy became known.
The report that Coroner Wright says
he will render a verdict of suicide I'M
less the officers quickly produce evil
dence lnat will cnange his mind, has
created CONSERVATION among the Off
GERS and detectives who are hunting
down the supposed murderer or MUIR
derers.
Many people, however, do not be-
lieve that The theory of the coroner
is correct. Sheriff Christopher and
Detective Curry, who have been work
ing night and day on the mystery,
say they do not believe that the wo-
man first killed her child and then
jumped into The we'll. They say that
they have evidence which will con-
clusively show that the woman could
not possibly have received the wounds
which were found upon her face in
any other way than at the hands of
some aSsailant.
The accepted theory of large por-
ton of the people is that Mrs. Star
buck was seized with a sudden attack
of puerperal insanity, which either
caused a homicidal desire, or gave
her the hallucination that some mon
ster was after her child. She ran to
the telephone to call for help; then
she dropped the receiver threw open
the window, tore the mosquito bar
from it, and, imagining she saw this
monster, or perhaps a man outside,
turned back, caught up her child, ran
out of the south door and made for
the old well, the first place that came
to her frenzied mind, darted through
the gates, and when she reached the
well threw in the child and jumped
in after it, and that her shrieks and
screams were caused because she i'm
agined this monster that she raved
about had followed her.

SUICIDE COMPACT KEPT.

Davenport, Ia, July 15.-By put
ting arsenic into tumbler Of milk

carried out a double suicide that he
and Mrs. Minnie Garner planned last
Monday. Because she was in love with
Orth, but already married, Mrs. Gar
ner proposed a double suicide and
they took poison together. Death fol-

BIG CALL FOR SPEAKERS

Indiana Republicans Want Lots Of
oratory in This Campaign.
Indianapolis, July, 16.-It is not
very probable that Senator Fairbanks
will spend much time this campaign
making speeches in Indiana His
presence. will be missed by the Re-
publicans, as he has been one Of their
mainstays IN former campaigns But
1t Is realized by the party leaders that
he has wider field to cover this time
and therefore that they cannot rea-
sonably expect so much from him. AS
the vice presidential nominee he will
probably be sent for a tour of the
country on special train, Chair
man G. G. Lyons of the speakers bu-
reau OF the state committee said to-
day that it is not very probable that
q tour OF the state on a special train
will be arranged for him, but he will
make number of speeches in Indi-
ana 1t is very probable that he will
open the campaign here before start
ing on his big swing around the circle
Lyons said there is already an enor-
nous demand for speakers and that
he has had a surprising number of
calls for such men as Senator Fair
banks and Senator Beveridge, J.
Frank Hanly. John L. Griffiths and
others who have taken a very active
part in the Republican campaigns.
Lyons said it is very probable that
the speaking campaign will be opened
about the middle of September unless
there is change in the plans.
The old prejudice against Indianap-
oils is coming to the top since the
talk Of Harry 8. New for the United
States senate was started. 1t Is con-
coded that New is one of the most
popular men In the State and that he
will be a factor in the race If he en-
tiers, yet there Is already an under
current Of protest because he resides
in Indianapolis. One we'll known
state politician who was here today
remarked with fine sarcasm that New
should have the place SO that Indian
apolis might be credited with the two
senator's and the vice president. His
meaning was SO obviois that no ques-
tions were necessary. 1t simply in
dicated that there is a feeling that if
indianapolis gets one of the senators
and the vice president that it should
be satisfied without attempting to
"hog the whole thing" There is a
movement now to instruct the Marion
county members to vote for New, but
1t will probably not go through, as
Addison C. Harris and John l.. Crit
fiths, of this city, are also being con-
sidered as prospective candidates.
Arrangements are now being made
for the third annual basket dinner
Of the Republican editors Of Indiana
The daily palladium. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1904-1905, 1904-07-16

A spirited fight is going on here for
control of The Republican delegation
to the next legislature. The county
is entitled to three senators and seven
members Of the house, in addition to
being Joined with Hancock for a rep.
resentative and with Morgan for a
senator. Hence it is obvious that
there should be big contest for con-
troll, in view of the vacancy that will
arise in the senate if Senator Fair
banks is elected vice president, and
there Is no telling what will happen
in convention Of over 500 delegates
and with many influences at work.
The primaries will be held next Wed
nesday, and the convention on Thurs
day.
