4 WARM CAMPAIGN
IN STATE OF INDIANA
WlNp-uP COMES SATURDAY EVE
MING WITH PARADEs AND
RALLIES IN EVERY CITY
OF IMPORTANCE.
The Liquor Question.
Has Been the Great Issue of the State
Campaign BY the Republicans.
Democrats Charge Extrava-
sance In the RepubIica"
Administrator.

Special to the Herald.
indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 30.-The
warmest2 political battle Indiana has
seen in recent years will wind up to-
morrow night with parades and rallies
in every city and town throughout
the length and breadth of the state.
The great battle in Indiana this year
is for the election of the state ticket.
The presidential contest, of course,
has not been neglected, but the lead
ers here feel that the national ticket
will take care of itself. The main
fight is for cuntrol of the legislature.
If the republicans win, eighty OF the
niaety-two counties in the state may
exercise local option and James A.
Hemenway will be returned to the
United States senate. If the demo-
Gratis win, there will be no appreciate
change in the liquor situation. The
law enacted by the republican legisla-
ture provides for local option by coun-
ties, while the democrats advocate
local option by townships. Between
the two there is great difference in
the practical results, as it is generally
admitted that the township plan would
not bring about prohibition in any of
the larger cities and towns.
The republicans have made the liq-
uor question the great issue of their
campaign. The democrats, on the
other hand, have paid little attention
to the liquor issue, but have made
much of the alleged extravaganza in
the republican administration of the
states business. Both parties have
made a thorough canvass of the stu
alton during the present week, and,
according to the leaders. both are
pleased with the result. The officials
at the republican state headquarters
say that the returns make the pros
poets look brighter than four years
ago, when Indiana went republican
by large mapority. The democrats,
on the other hand, appear well salts
fed with the outlook and insist that
better showing for their ticket
could not be desired.

cHAuNCEY oLCoTT.

Chauncey Olcott, who will be seen at Polls tomorrow evening, can lay claim to being the only purely TO- mantle actor now before the Amer ican public. In the IA years he has been star and producer he has appeared only in romantic dramas. This seasons offering Is called "O'Neill of Derry and deals with the old walled town of Londonderry on the north coast of Ireland in the stirring days of Cromwell. The plot of the drama and it's development are said to be most exciting. Theo- dore Burt Sayre, author of Eileen Asthore," also wrote 'fO'Neill of Derry" and it is said to be his most ambitious effort. Since his first ap- pearance in drama, MT Olcott has appeared only in romantic plays and has never essayed character in modern dress. He is not content with achieving a success in one role but no matter how enthusiastic the reception of new play may be he at once lays plans for its successor. He has four sweet songs for the new play. The titles are: Michael Me Ginnity," "One Little, Sweet Little Girl,' Every Star Falls in Love With It's Mate" and "A Rose of Old Derry" Prices 25c, to s1.50. Seats now on sale. Telephone 1,0S4.

 -AlIeqiance to His People.


 Lisbon, May 7.-ManueI, the boy king of Portugal, solemnly took the oath of allegiance to his people and with all the traditional courtly observance was proclaimed the ruler of the nation.

THREE DIE IN FEUD FIGHT.
Virginia Moonshiners Kill Enemies
 From Ambush With Rifles.


 Danville, Va, May 7.-As the result of a bitter family feud which had caused several previous difficulties of a more or less serious nature three men were shot to death supposedly from ambush near Philpott, Henry county. The victims, who all belonged to one faction, were Samuel Shelton, aged twenty-five; Charles Dodson, aged thirty-five. and James Holly, aged nine teen.
 The following were arrested on the charge of having committed the mur- ders and released on bail for a pre- liminary hearing: William and Grover Massey. brothers. and Heresford and Thomas Spencer, brothers
 The feud existing between the Shel. ton and Dodson families on one side and the Massey and Spencer families on the other was brought to focus several days ago when some unknown parties cut up and destroyed a block. ade whisky dlstlllery operated by Sam. uel shelton. Shelton and his friends accused William Massey of the deed and started out with the ayowed in. tention of destroying blockade dis. tillery alleged to have been operated by Massey. Half a dozen men were in the party. and all were heavily arm ed. It is supposed that before they arrived at their destination and while on the plantation of Heresford Spen. cer the Spencers and Masseys, being warned. concealed themselves behind cluster of bushes on the road and opened fire with repeating rifles.

JACQUES
SECRET SERVICE. ."

One of the most striking scenes in Secret Service" which Polls
 Own Stock company is presenting at the Jacques this week is the war telegraph office scene. Captain Thorne, the Northern spy, is about to send false order to the confed- crate lines, which if carried out, will greatly weaken the defenses about Richmond. The southern secret service man suspects his game and watches from the yeranda. Just as Thorne begins to send the message he shoots Thorne in the hand. Thorne calmly binds handkerchief about the wound and when the southern says Do you know why didn't shoot to kill you" Thorne coolly re- plies Yes, because you are such a damned poor shot" The scene is very thrilling and wins several cur tain calls at each performance. 'Se- cret Service" differs from other plays of this sort because its au- thor. William Gillette, has Iaft much to the imagination of the audience. The play abounds in many genu- ous situations of strong melodra-  matic interest and elaborate expedi- ents of action and interest. The hu- nor of the piece is provided by a young vivacious southern girl played by Miss Louise Lablanc and is re- freshing and free from anything which will mar the action of the play. The piece is unusually effec- tive and expressing and does not fail to make its impression on those who witness it. The company is uncom- monly strong. David NJ. Hartford does an excellent piece of acting as Captain Thorne. the spy. and Miss Susan Van Duzer is charming and capable as Edith Varney. Next week the company will be seen in Men and Women" one of David Belascos early plays. Poli's popular prices.

 He has never been seen since that time Messengers sent from here to lola have elicited the fact that he never returned to that place.

DIGGING UP CORPSES
Guinness Woman's Farm Yields
 More Dead Bodies.
SHE MAY NOT HAVE PERlsHED
Doubt About HesdIess Remains Being Thoseef Woman Suspected of f4WhoIe- Murder-Death Came In Same Way to All Victims.

Murder-Death Came In Same Way
 to All Victims.
 Laporte, Ind, May Flour more bodies were found on the farm of Mrs Belle Guinness, near here. and it is be lieved still others will be uncovered Nine bodies have been unearthed, and there is now suspicion Mrs. Guin- ness may not have died in the fire which destroyed the farmhouse on April 2S. Doubt exists over the head less body of woman found in the ruins, and it is thought Mrs. Guinness may have had body brought here from Chicago and after firing the house made her own escape.
 In all there are fifteen deaths which may be traced to Mrs. Guinness. The bodies of two men, one girl and two small children were found first. Two of the bodies found later were those of man and woman, and two were so terribly dismembered and hacked as to make it difficult to determine the sex. This fact will not be known until the autopsy It is believed Mrs. Guinness fired the house and that if she did not deliberately wait for death in the flames that she was responsible for the death of the woman whose body may have been carried to the house to be taken for her own. In the flames the three small children of the woman were burned almost to cinders. This gives thirteen, and in addition the two husbands of the woman met sudden death The first, Max Sorensen, drop ped dead, supposedly from heart dis ease. His relatives alleged that he had been poisoned, but an order to exhume the body was not carried out. -.-
 Her Husbands Fate.
 Joseph Guinness. the second hus. band, died from injuries on the head. His wife said a meat grinder had fallen on him from a shelf. and the explanation was accepted by the au. thorities.
 Search will be made in the ruins of the house, as if is believed bodies were buried in the basement.
 An examination of the nine bodies shows that all the murders were wrought with short, heavy spike a,d that all the blows which. killed the nine persons were delivered from be. hind. Several small holes were found in the back of each skull.
 The seventh body was terribly man. gled. and coroner's physician said it appeared the murderer had hacked il fin unsuitable fury with an ax. The legs, arms and head were severed. and all most every bone was broken in several places. -ss a7. 's P .,3 ---..s'
 Parts of the body were hacked away and the skull was crushed shapeless The body was driven into the soft earth. as if by pounding, and the physician said the sex could be de- termined sonly at the autopsy. The victim died, it was said, about year ago.
 . Bodies ManoIed and Battered
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1908-05-07
Bodies MsnsIed and Battered.

Continued digging brought up two other bodies. one of them also man. gled and battered so that there was doubt about the sex, the other, the body of a woman about twenty-five years old. Both bodies were dismem' bered, like all the others. and the pieces were dropped into hole six feet deep. All four bodies were with In space eight feet square. and the nine bodies have been taken from a small corner of the yard.
 The entire yard will be dug over, and there are several low mounds, which seem to cover bodies. The sheriff has twelve men employed on the work
 The belief is gaining acceptance that the farm was clearing house. foi Chicago murderers. although there is no doubt that men and women lost their lives in the Guinness house. Nine trunks were delivered at the house from Chicago within eighteen months
 Two of the nine mutilated bodies were identified with reasonable cer tainty. Antone Olson of Chicago view ed the body supposed to be that oi Jennie Olson. sixteen years old. foster daughter of Mrs. Guinness. and pro nounced 1t to be that of his daughter. A sister of the girl. Mrs. Leo olandef of Chicago. confirmed the fathers iden. tification.
