The theory now advanced is that
Mrs. Guinness may have murdered
not only Jennie Olson, but also the
man and woman. The disappearance
of Jennie Olson as well as the cou-
pie, occurred in September, 1906,
while Budsburg was disposed of in
May, 1907. His body was nearer the
surface than the other three.
The mystery surrounding the watch
found on the person of Ray Lam
phere when he was arrested was
cleared today when ]. G.. Ramden
of Manfred, N. D., who came here
yesterday to investigate the disap-
pearance of his half brother, named
John Moe of Elbow Lake, Mimi,
identified the time piece as one own
by his brother when he left home.
The number of the watch corresponds
with the nmbers in Mr.. Noes pos
session.
Lamphere said that Mrs. Guinness
gave him the watch. Mr.. Ramden
is positive that his brother was muir
dered by Mrs, Guinness, though he
was not able to identify the remain
ing skeletons and SO will not be able
to provide proper burial for his
brother. The bodies of the seven
unidentified dead will be buried in
the potters field Christian service
will be conducted over them and a
small stone will be erected with an
inscription telling the circumstances
of Their death.
The body Of Jennie Olson has been
turned over to relatives. Ole Buds
burg's body was today shipped to 10
la, Wis.,, for burial.

Bremen, will carry $S,35O,OOO in
gold. OF this amount $4,000, 900 will
go to Germany and $3,85O,OOO to

hausts the assay ofncer's supply of

forced to send coin after this until
the government is able to secure a
new stock Of bars.

to sell above $4.87 for demand in

and the opinion prevailed that the
American banks should ship consid-
cradle more gold before the week

Oklahoma City. July s.-Messages

an outbreak of the Snake Indians

armed and refused to surrender their
arms WREN demand was made by
Sheriff Odom of Mcintosh county. Five
hundred frightened farmer folk have
taken refuge in Henrietta, according to
an officer there and the town Is being
guarded. Riders were sent out to
warn the country people.
One of the most serious phases of
the situation is that the Indians refuse
to make their desires definitely known.
In an impassioned address to his peo-
pie Crazy Snake said:
Don't give up your arms. Die If
you must, but drive the white man
from our lands"
Crazy Snake is being spurred on, it
is said, by negro half-bloods who ex-
pect to share in the spoils.
Acting Governor Bellamy, the report
said, has been asked to order troops to
the scene.

BONI STARTS FIGHT.
The Count VIII Try to Recover Con-
troll of His Children

Paris, July S.-Count Boni De Cas-
tellane. whose former wife was mar
ried yesterday in London to Prince
Helie de Sagan. the counts cousin,
has opened what promises to be a
sensational legal battle for the posses
sion of his three children. the Off
spring of his marriage with Miss Anna
Gould. The step taken by the count
which generally has been misunder-
stood is merely a preliminary skirm-
ish.
This was not a formal demand for
the custody of the children. but an
aftermath of the removal last week
by the count. of his son Jay from the
residence of his former wife at Ver-
sailles.
Maitre Bennett. counsel for the
count. petitioned the court to re-en-
dorse his clients rights to retain Jay
temporarily on account of the child s
illness and because of the insufficient
care he was receiving at Versailles
during the absence of his mother.
Maitre Bonnet told the correspon-
dent of the Associated Press that a
decided move would be made in a few
days when he would ask the court to
give the custody of all the children to
the count on the ground that the Prin-
cess De Sagan was not a suitable pro-
tector for them, insomuch as she is
under the complete domination and
control of Prince Helie De Sagan, who
is unworthy to hold the position of
father to the children.
"As proof that Madame Gould was
completely dominated by the Prince
De Sagan We will offer the action in
travelling in Italy the Riviera and to
England in company with the Prince
De Sagan before she was married to
him."
Maitre Bonnet declared:
1.-The cases will proceed as soon as
the Princess De Sagan returns and an
nounces her readiness to defend her
| interests"

suade others to do so. The plank also
advocates legislation to prevent the
issuance of injunctions without hear
ing and trial by jury in cases where
the alleged contempt was not commit
ted in the presence of the court or SO
near thereto as to obstruct the admin
istration of justice. Mr.. Fuller utiIiz-

remarks John Mitchell. the labor lead
er and prospective vice presidential
candidate, was called upon to address
the committee Mr. Mitchell said he

as almost to preclude him from such
impassioned discussion. While gener-
ally regarded law abiding citizen he
was at this moment precluded from
travelling in some of the states of the
Union. He could not go into some
portions of West Virginia without con-
fiicting with the order of the court.
Mitchell declared himself Demo-
crat and in general way urged the
committee to prepare such a platform
as could receive the support of labor.
Advice on the tariff was given the
committee by John H. Fowler of Penn
sylvania. who advocated the aboli-
ton of the tariff on raw material.
Ex-senator Harris presented a
plank looking to the regulation of
federal liquor licenses so as not to
interfere with state laws. He said IT
was not intended to take a position on
the question of prohibition but merely
to magnify the Importance of con-
forming to the state law

Mexico as separate states was advo-
Gated by Mr.. Stoneman of Arizona
