STORIES UNTRUE.
Rev. ScheIl Denies Statement That He
Said Lamphere Helped Kill.

Baltimore, May 13.-Rev. Dr. f. A,
Schell of La Porte, Ind, in talking
again today about the Guinness farm
tragedy denied that he said that Ray
Lamphere helped to kill the Guinness
children but had no part in Staying
any men except Helgelein.
Il have made no statement regard
ing this or any detail of my inter-
view with Lamphere, except to say
that Lamphere's communications to
me were wholly privileged and unless
he shall himself make the statements
to Prosecuting Attorney Smith, will
maintain as an inviolabe secret"
DR.. Schel added that like many
others, he believed that Mrs. Guinness
was alive but that he had no knowl-
edge of the fact. Speaking further
concerning the case and some of the
persons connected herewith, DR..
Schel said:
Mrs Guinness, as | said yesterday.
was an attractive woman in her way.
She dressed richly and even, you might
say. in good taste, but her manner of
talking and her speech itself-her
vagaries of grammar-betrayed a low
origin.
"Lamphcre is a man who drinks hard
and has borne an unpleasant reputa-
ton. One, two or three occasions re-
Gently he has come into town with
roll of bills which he has generally
managed to get rid of over night
Sometime ago | constituted myself a
sort of civic league and went after
certain saloon keepers in the town who
vic tho law and | found
slot machine running in one of them
in which Lamphere had lost $50 a
night or two before They say he lost
it playing the slot machines. but the
suspicion is that he got drunk and was
relieved of hi; money.
'Lamphcre sent for me and told me
his story and that is how ] got mixed
up in the case Despite the advice of
his lawyers. I believe that he will tell
the truth when he goes on the witness
stand did not know personally any
of the supposed victims Of Mrs Gun
ness. ] had seen the man Helgelein,-
he was a big strapping fellow-but |
did not know him personally"
"Of course | know very well all the
lawyers connected with the case.
Prosecutor r. n. Smith is a member of
my church and leader of a large Bible
class Sheriff Shutter is also an at
tendant at my church. He is a Luth
cran but has been refused communion
at this church because he joined a
secret benefit organization known as
the Sons of Ben Hur. That may give
you an idea of some of the questions
that agitated our community"
The house in which Mrs. Guinness
lived, DR.. Schell said, had borne a bad
| rame for years. Three years ago when
Mrs. Guinness came from Boston and
| bought the house, people thought its
character would change. because at
| that time she was looked upon as en-
! tirely respectable. The place was a
rather imposing one for the neighbour
hood, the house being worth $1,000 or
| $4,000. and the farm containing Is
acres.

GAMBETTA's ROMANCE.
Interest In French Statesman Revived
BY Story Of Love Affair.

Paris May 13.-The question of re-
moving the body of Gambetta TO the
Pantheon is again being ag1tated the
memory of the man who was the soul
of the French defence in the war with
Germany is very dear to the French
people and annual pilgrimages are
made to the little house in Vile D'Av-
ray, where he died.
Renewed interest in Gambetta has
recently been revived by the publica-
ton of the story of his mysterious love
affair with Leonie Leon. Throughout
his life the strange figure OF this wo-
man was always in the background
but her identity was first revealed by
this volume written by Gambettas
confidential secretary. 1t is remark
able story of the pure attachment
outside the bonds of wedlock. or
great man for noble woman. The
letters to her which are publlsheo
Show that she was his greatest inspl-
ration and that to her tact and intui-
tive Judgment he gave much of the
credit for his political success.
She first attracted his attention in
the gallery of the Chamber of Depu-
ties. where for months she was never
absent when Gambetta spoke, but his
first effort to form her acquaintance
was in vain. At his first approach she
fed and he did not see her again for
four years.
At last they met and fell in love
with each other. He proposed marriage
but she refused, telling him that there
was q stain upon her name and under
the circumstances she felt that an al
lance might interfere with his career.
She, however, consented to become his
mistress and although Gambetta al
ways regarded her as his wife they
were never legally married. but a
| marriage was about to occur when he
sustained the fatal accident.

consumption of it's natural resources.

Vice President, the cabinet, justices of
the United States supreme court ana
members of both Houses of Congress.

of railway expansion; John Mitchell,
the labor leader; and DR.. /. c. White,
state geologist of West Virginia, and
