TWO GUILTY OF LAND FRAUD Jury Out Seventy-five
 Hours. OTHER MEN ARE ACQUITTED
OTHER MEN ARE ACQUITTED
Disagreement Was First Reported
 by Men in Box.
Judge sent Them Back To Deliberate and Confidence of western Craft CTS Was shaken By the Re-
 suit.

Washington, June 22.-Guilty, Fred erick A. Hyde, Joost H. Schneider.
 Not giuity: John A. Benson, Henry P. Dimond.
 This was the verdict rendered this afternoon by jury in the criminal court here in the case of the trial of those four men, all westerners. one of them, Benson, a millionaire real es- tate operator for alleged conspiracy to defraud the government out of wall uabIe lands in the far west. The jury had been out almost aeventy.five hours.
 Benson and Dimond were acquitted on all of the forty-two counts in the indictment. Hyde and Schneider were convicted on all but ten of the counts. Benson and Dimond were immediately released from custody. Hyde's ball was increased under the Jury's verdict to s20.0o0 and Schneider's to si2,5o0.
 The fury had engaged in one of the most protracted deliberations over a verdict on record here in federal courts. The verdict was the second report the jury had made in the case, on the previous occasion at l1:22 o'clock this morning a disagreement being announced. Justice Stafford had then instructed them to again retire in an effort to reach common agree ment and in the intervening hours sev- eral of the jurors changed their votes with the resulting verdict. All the de- fendants had confidently expected dis agreement, or aequitt&i and had made plans for departing from the city.

HAD TO VIEW BODY
GIRL COULDN'T BELIEVE HER Lov.
 FIR DEAD.
Ordered That Remains Be Dfsanterrea fin Order that She Might Sat. isfy Herself That substi-
 tute Wasn't Buried.


 Chicago, H.. June 22.--It was dis closed today that to convince a fance that her sweetheart was dead and that the boSS of another man had not been substituted for him. the corpse of pr. Henry B. cragin, formerly of PhfIa- delphia. was recently disinterred at Rose Hill Cemetery. this city.
 Until Miss Elizabeth Burns. of Chi. cago, whom the physician was to mar ry had closely scrutinlzed the features. she would not give up the conviction that the man who had wooed and won her was living.
 In the physician's last illness neither realized the seriousness of his afflic- ton. Relatives took charge of the body soon after the death. Before Miss Burns saw the corpse 1t was buried The apparent suddenness of the death and burial convinced her that the body was not that of Dr. cragin. but of an- other instead.
 Parental objection to the impending marriage was suggested as a cause for the doctor to be spirited away.
 When Miss Burns finally. with the aid of a brother. who came here from New York, saw the body and realized that death had stolen her sweetheart, she became hysterical and Is still in a highly nervous state.

DIDN'T GET TO VOTE
ACTION ON ANTT-ERACING BILn
 POSTPONED.
Twenty-One Senators Could Not Be MarshaIIed By Louisiana Hefcrma- CTS Who to Save Themselves
 Adjourned.

Baton Rouge. La, June 22.--It was only by forcing an adjournment that the friends of the Locke anti-racing bill saved that measure from defeat in the Louisiana State Senate tonight. The measure will come up again when the body reconvenes at noon tomorrow.
 It will require twenty-one votes to get through the Senate the bill which Is designed to break up all forms Of race track gambling in Louisiana. When the Senate met at 8 o'clock to- night a hurried poll of the body by those who are leading the fight showed only twenty members present who could be relied on to vote for the pas- sage of the bill. So a motion to ad- journ was made and carried by vote of 20 to IT,
 The anti-raeing faction had been counting on the vote of Senator Set toon to make the requisite twenty-one. but this member is reported to have missed a train connection when on his way back to the state capitol after a visit home Sunday and as night ap- preached only a score of votes could be marshalled in favor of the measure. An automobile was sent out in quest of Senator Settoon. but. when 9 o'clock arrived and neither the Senator nor the automobile had put In an appearance. all hopes Of passing the bill tonight was given up and the motion to ad- journ was decided upon as the best way out of the tangle.
 The anti-racing people are still san guiue and say they will eventuallv succeed in getting the required twenty-one senators in the chamber. On the other hand. those who compose the race track faction have taken fresh hope now that they have again succeeded in thwarting the designs oG the reformers and declare they vii eventually kill the bill for good and all.
 An announcement late tonight by 2 J. Mclaughlin, Chairman of the New Orleans Anti-Race Track League. put an unusual phase upon the Illness oE Senator Smart whose absence was one of the causes for the Locke bills failure to pass. Senator Smart was taken vln~ lently m immediately after suppsr to- night and Mir. MeLaughlin's statanaent said that attending physicians thouKht the attack might be due to "same for- eign substance" which "resembled poln. on very much"

Commerce Commission Makes ImpOrf-
 ant Ruling for Rice Case.


 ant Ruling for Rice Case.
 Washington. June 22.-The Inter state Commerce Commission today an nounced Its decision In the case of Rice against the Georgia Railroad Com pany. holding in effect that the eondi- tions under which. coal is transported from Jellico, Tenn, to Augusta, Ga, are so dissimilar to the conditions un- der which coal is transported to Au- gusta from the Alabama fields as to warrant the railroad in charging moro for the haul from Jellico; also that water competition at Charleston re- lieves the railroad from~the charge of violation of the long and short haul clause. and finally that the railroad rates on coal from Jellico to Augusta are not unreasonable.
 Regarding the complaint that the reweighing of car loads shipments of coal Is unreasonable. the Commission sustains that contention and orders the railroad to correct its methods so as 1 per cent, with a minimum of 500 pounds is diclosed.
 In the case of the Rail and River Coal Company. against the Baltimore and Ohio. the Commission held that any regulation that withdraws from a ship per equal opportunity of the rates is unlawful and requires the railroad company to count the railway fuel cars and leased or private cars against the distributlve shares of available cars to which the operators are entitled on interstate shipments of coal

LOSS IS ONE MILLION
FIRE DESTROYS FART OF TOWN IN
 CANADA.
FiFemen are Taken By Special Trains to Three Rivers, Quebee--SeV- -eraI Churches In Ruins
 --NO Deaths.

Three Rivers, Quebec, June 22.- Famed by a high wind, a fire which broke out shortly before noon today in a stable was not checked until the greater part of the lower town, con- tanning the business section of the city. had been consumed.
 Then with the assistance of firemen summoned by special trains from Mon treal, Quebec, Sherbrooke and Grand Mere, 1t was held in check. Almost ev- cry building of any consequence in that section of the city was destroyed, in- cluding the postofice. the city hall, ev- cry hotel worthy of the name, with one exception, the fine building of the Hoeheiaga Bank and almost all of the leading stores. Over 800 buildings were burned.
 The narrow streets of the town and the lnfiammable nature of many of the buildings in the path of the fire rend- cred the task of the firemen an almost impossible one.
 Outside the town Is located the camp of the Sixth Military District. and soon after the fire started a thousand men were sent to help fight the flames. The local brigade was entirely ineffective when 1t came to coping with a con- migration and the soldiers rendered the best assistance they could. but their bucket brigades was not equal to the task. The fact that there was no efl- cient command also mltigatcd against their efforts and 1t waS not until nearly four hours after the lire had assumed threatening dimensions that organized effort by the fire fighters from the other cities was available.
 Among the buildings burned are the St. James Anglican Church. the oldest Anglican Church building in Canada; the Roman Catholic Parish Church. Drolet. la Londem and Company's big department store. the DuFrenz. Wind sor. Dominion and Richelieu Hotels. the telegraph offices and the Bell Telephone Company's exchange.
 The loss will be considerably over a million dollars and 1t is stated that the insurance companies will be hard hit.
 SoTfar no loss of life has been rec ported. but a woman and two children are reported to have been burned.
