ORDERED TO RETURN PROPERTY.
Municipal Traction Company of CIeve-
land Is Hit.

Cleveland, o., Oct. 24.-Secretary
Henry Davis of the Cleveland Railway
Company Friday made a demand upon
President A. B. Du Pont of the Mu-
nicipal Traction Company that the
railway property be turned over to the
Cleveland Railway Company imme-
diately.
President Du Pont replied, saying
he would do nothing until after meet
ing of the Municipal directors, which
will be held at once.
Cleveland, o.. Oct. 24.-The fran
chise under which the Municipal
Traction Company is operating the
local street railway lines on three
cent fare basis, was defeated by
majority of $40 in the referendum
vote here Thursday. The total vote
cast was upwards of $4,000.
The defeat of the franchise may
mean that the railway property will
revert to it's original owners and that
the old rate of fare strife which lasted
seven years will be renewed. The
only alternative will be for city coun-
Gil at once to grant new franchise
which will save the property to the
Municipal Traction Company.

NOT A MIRACLE.
Just Plain Cause and Effect,

There are some quite remarkable
things happening every day, which
seem almost miraculous.
Some persons would not believe that
a man could suffer from coffee drink

Inconsistencies. And to find complete
relief in changing from coffee to Pos.
tum is well worth recording.
II used to be a great coffee drinker,
SO much so that it was killing me by
inches. My heart became so weak I
would fall and lie unconscious for an
hour at a time. The spells caught
me sometimes two or three times a.
day.
my friends, and even the doctor,
told me it was drinking coffee that
caused the trouble. l would not be-.
lieve it, and still drank coffee until +
could not leave my room.
"Then my doctor, who drinks Pos
tum himself, persuaded me to stop cof-
fee and try Postum. After much hest
tation concluded to try II. That was
eight months ago. Since then I have
had but few of those spells, none for
more than four months.
Il feel better, sleep better and am
better every way. l now drink moth
ing but Postum and touch no coffee,

THE MORBID
 BY THOUSANDS
ThrOnged the Roads to the
 Gunness Farm
Further Excavations of the Bloody Soil to Be Made Today.

LaPorte, May 10-All roads in La Porte county lead to the Guinness farm today, more than 15,0O0 sightseers wis iting that place of death before sun set. The investigation of the case by the authorities halted. The sheriff and other officials who went to the farm were compelled to become mere spec tatOrs. Several out of town persons here seeking information concerning missing relatives and some further in formation concerning the identity of the victims resulted from the inquiries.
 The most definite information came from Olaf Lindbe of Chicago. He said his brother Thomas worked for Mrs. Gunness three years ago, and the last letter which he had from him contained the information that Thomas intended to marry his employer. Olaf wrote the woman a little later and she replied that Thomas had gone to St. Louis.
 Sheriff Smulzer will continue his in vestigatiOns on the Gunness farm to- morrow. Tine first object of searching will be the heaps of ashes and other refuse in the cellar of the ruined house The ashes and cinders are to be carefully sifted and then sluiced, in an effort to discover the gold filings which are said to have been in Mrs. Gunness' teeth The floor of the eel lar may also be dug up and additional excavations may be made where the ten ghastly cadavers have been un- carthed.
