Cured between Denver and Littleton
but was not discovered until the train
arrived in Denver at 2:1O u. N.
Three men were seen to leave the
train as it slowed up at Fifteenth St,
and are believed to be the robbers.
The express company claims a loss
of only 800. The robbers must have
been concealed in the first baggage
car until the train was a few miles
from Littleton, for Wright was seen
shortly before the arrival of the train
at that town. The car showed Wright
put up game fight before he was
killed. The disordered condition of

La Porte, Ind, May THE grim
story of the private grave yard at the
farm of Mrs. Bella Guinness, a mile
north of La Porte. is still in its early
chapters Today it is estimated that
the number of persons murdered at
her placer Iured there tnroIgh the
matrimonial bureau, is from II to Il.
The exhumation yesterday of four
= dismembered ,Sodies wrapped in bur
lap brings the total victims known
to have been murdered to nine, in
cluding the bodies supposed to be
those of Mrs. Guinness and her three
children. These were discovered af-
ter the fire which burned the house
on April 2S. The total deaths to be
investigated and accounted for is 13.
Additional light on the methods
! by which Mrs. Guinness caIsed the
deaths at her farm, was shed this
morning by A. K. Helgelein, a broth
er of Andrew Helgelein, of Mansfield,
s. D., whose dismembered corpse is
among the nine found Helgeiein told
the coroner that not only had his bro
ther been in communication with the
woman, but also she had written him
after the disappearance of Andrew,
attempting to induce him to visit her
saying: "Sell your brothers stock and
come here and we viii hunt for your
brother together" Rain may inter
fere with the further exhumation on
the farm today. but it is believed
more bodies will be found 1t is be-
lieved Mrs. Guinness established com
munication with her victims through
a matrimonial agency.

to be heard and it is thought that cleo
trio conditions were such last night
last night and this morning had a
similar experience. There was nothing
and are still such that wireless COM
munication is practically killed tenn
porarily.
The local wireless company yester-
day and this morning experienced diff
ficulty in getting messages through to
or from other local stations, and all
ON account of the atmospheric condi-
lions. One of the heaviest electric
storms ever experienced in these ISL
ands is interfering with electric thought
transference.
This morning BARRIERS Point was the
only station with which the wireless
headquarters could have any commune
iCation.
Doubtless the West Virginia has
been endeavoring to send a message to
the local Naval station in order to
declare at what time she expects to
reach her. or, perhaps, to report bad
will be delayed thereby, but no mes
sage has come through, nor is any
message likely to get through until
atmospheric conditions improve.
1t is possible that the Matson S. S.
Lurline, which at 10 o'clock this
morning sailed for San Francisco, may
be in communication by wireless with
the fleet in few hours, after she has
freed conditions of the land effects and
she may be able to get message to-
night to Kanuku from the fleet, the
West Virginia sending information Of
the fleets condition through cIe Mat
son boat, but, unless the weather
