II You Would Keep in, Touch with J
THE MURDERL|sT GROWsI
Mrs. Guinness Believed to Be at the
Head or the Agent of Murder
Trust-Sheriff Has Theory.

Special to the Herald
La Porte, Ind, May 1.-THE sheriff
and his deputies are digging in all
soft places around the Guinness farm,
and it is believed still other bodies
will be dug up to furnish further evil
| dence against the woman. The sher-
iff says he believes the list of buried
bodies will exceed twenty. The evil
dence shows that the woman was at
the head or was the agent of "mur-
der trust" with headquarters at Chi
cago. 1t is the theory of the officers
that many of the bodies were shipped
to the Guinness woman for disposition.
The states attorney believes the wo-
man attracted the victims, made love
to them and finally disposed of them
when they were not suspecting any
thing. Mrs. Guinness weighed two
hundred and twenty-five pounds, and
could easily overcome the average
man.
The sheriff, acting on the theory
that the woman was not burned with
her house but has fled the country,
has telegraphed the New York author
tiles to watch for Mrs. Guinness. She
is believed to be trying to make her
escape to Norway
Six mems watches and one woman's
watch have been found in the ruins of
the Guinness home Circulars are be-
ing mailed out giving the number of
the cases in the hope that through
this means the bodies of the exhumed
victims may be identified. The coro-
ner declares that the bodies which
were killed some time ago the skulls
show signs of fractures. Those killed
later have no such indications, and
it is the belief of the officers that
they were asphyxiated. One of the
woman's letters written to one of her
supposed victims is produced and is
full Of endearing terms, urging the
lover to come to her and be happy
with her in one of the prettiest homes
in. Nnrthern- Indiana-. u

NEW YORK. Aug. Is, 100


In spite of the continuance of almost
unbarably oppressive weather condi-
tions the market commences to show
some vigorous signs of life. A number
of Western buyers have already made
their appearance and they are not back
ward in starting in to provide themselves
with supplies. They are evidently act
ing from personally acquired knowledge
that most OF the cigar factories are bare
of stock and that prices will hardly re-
cede in view of promising fall trade.
The first attention they paid as usual at
this time to the New England crop,
which, however, turned out last year a
great disappointment. It is therefore,
comparatively cheap. but may neverthe-
less prove a good investment for the
lower grades of the cigar industry. The
demand was also for good binder and
filler leaf and In these lines the market
is amply prepared to give full satisfac-
ton. Jobbers can buy to-day of the
1906 Wisconsin and Pennsylvania crop
at reasonable figures. The loss the
packer is pocketing on these crops will
prove the jobber's profit. Sumatra is
also sharing the attention of the jobber

that will help them recoup their losses

any means as dnll as it was feared it
would be, though at no time has it been

The months drought, added lateness
in setting plants, is causing serious ap-
prehension among growers and buyers.
There are quite number of valley crops
that promise good results, topping hav-
ing progressed and shedding will follow
in very few days But these are the
exceptions, and unless weather condi-
tions change we see no reason to predict
even an average crop for this section.
A large per cent OF the fields show un-
even growth, and practically no growth
at all beyond what the plants were when
transplanted. This is not rosy picture,
but as we see it, just plain recital of
conditions.
In one section, we learn, there has
beer an attempt to make purchase of
crops in the field and few acres have
been contracted for on Pleasant Ridge.
A number of strangers have been going
over the territory. local dealers abstain
ing from any attempt to buy. The high
est prices we have been appraised of
being not above eight cents. And right
here comes up anew the propriety and
good or i'll effects to be derived from dis
posing of crops before they are matured.
It cannot be denied that it is Jug

The man who gives contract or option
on his growing crop practically surrend-

to his own property. He is bound to
accept such treatment as the buyer may
determine. The Censor has no disposi-
tion to knock any interest, but it must

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, Wis, Aug. 81, 1908.

AzOOERAO1N, w 1Ss, aug. @1y 1OOOs
Chief interest this week is centered in
the report that the buying movement is
under way in the Vernon county dis
trict where buyers have been focking in
large numbers. At this writing it is
hard to say what headway has been
made in securing contracts though grow
ers are offered anywhere from to 10
cents. If farmers are willing to accept
the offers, there are buyers enough in
the field to clean up the district in short
order, but the chances are more than
even that this will not occur.
The harvest of the new cropis now
quite generally started in most sections
and souuder tobacco has seldom been
shielded in this state, for the leaf has so
far escaped hail. wind storms and grass.

proved wonderfully since the rains and
bid fair to make the most satisfactory
portion of the crop under favorable con-
ditions from this time on.
Nothing has developed in the cured
leaf markets that furnishes muck en-
couragement to holders of old tobacco.
The sale OF 1O0cs lot of '06 by local
dealer is reported but the price would
produce chill if given.
The shipments out of storage reach
925 cases from this market to all points
for the week past.

A late fall, with six weeks more OF

Only few samples of the new Pennsyl-

 The floor of the chamber was filled with deputies and peers while the gall leries were crowded with a brilliant audience.
 His majesty slowly mounted the tribune that had been especially erected for his use. His address which he read in strong and full tones, not unlike those of his father. was a pathetic and at the same time a practical and wig orous discourse calculated to win the sympathies of the people.
 He touched upon the tragedy of Feb urary 1, when his father and his brother were shot down, as the cruel disappearance of my father and brother" He called upon the country to concentrate all it's energies in supreme effort to attain the realiza- tion of the destinies of Portugal.
