INDIClS MRS. GUINNESS.
Grand Jury Accuses Her of Murder Al.
 though She Is Believed Dead.


 Laporte, Ind, May 23.-In returning seven true bills against Ray Lamphere the Laporte county grand jury also in- dicted Mrs. Belle Guinness for the mur- der of Andrew Heigelein of Mansfield, s. D. No warrant was issued for Mrs. Guinness, as she was declared officially dead by the verdict of Coroner Mack, but in order to vote true bill against Lamphere as an accessory in the kill ing of Helgelein It was necessary to indict Mrs. Guinness as the principal Lamphere now stands before the bar of justice officially charged with arson, five murders and being an accessory in the Helgeiein murder
 Separate bills were returned against Lamphere for the murder in the first degree of Mrs. Belle Guinness and her three children-Philip Guinness, Myrtle Sorenson and Lucy Sorenson.
 Lamphere was not arraigned, and this will probably not be done until the cases are set for trial Bench war rants issued by Judge ]. c. Richter were served upon Lamphere in jail. T shall ask to have the cases set down for early trial this term" said Prosecu- tor Smith.
 The digging under the direction of Sheriff Snutzer resulted in the un- earthing of human skull, which. it was decided, belongs to one of the bodies dug up in the chicken yard two weeks ago. At that time three skele- tons were found in one hole, but there were only two skulls.

RAILROAD WAR
The Next Siep in The Merger Case May Moi Come Be-
 fore AHaust.

Boston, May 23.-Present indica- tions are that the next step of the federal government in its suit to prevent the merger of the Boston and Maine railroad with the New York, New Haven and Hartford sys- tenn and also to separate the New Haven road from it's street railways holdings in Massachusetts will not be taken before next August. Ex- actly what the next move of the government will be has not yet been decided inasmuch as nothing defi- mite can be settled upon as line of procedure until after the New Haven road has replied to the va rious counts of the bill in equity filed in the United States circuit court yesterday by United States District Attorney Asa P. French.
 The New York, New Haven and Hartford company does not have to enter an appearance in the federNl court until the next rule day. which comes the first week in July and the company is allowed 30 days after that time in which to file It's answer to the bill. Consequently hearings on the bill cannot begin be- fore August, nor will wi nesses De summoned before that time. AL though yesterdays bill prays for Q temporary injunction against the New Haven road it is not considered probable that any immediate mo- tion for an injunction will be made. IL is pointed out that the recent de- cision of the Massachusetts supreme court concerning the New Haven 5 control of Massachusetts trolley lines acts as an injunction on that phase of the case while the so-called Cole bill of the Massachusetts legislature prevents the New Haven road from voting or otherwise enjoying the ownership of it's 109,00O shares of Boston & Maine stock until after July i, thus effectually enjoining inl- mediate action on the proposed merg- CT.
 Boston & Maine officials were retl- cent to-day concerning the govern- ment's suit. President Lucius Futile was indisposed at his home and could not eb interviewed and in his absence no other Boston & Maine official cared to make any statement.

STORY OF A TRUCE.
Wall Street Believed Roosevelt Had
 Bargained for Support of Taft.

New York. May 23.-The filing of the government suit against the New Haven road took Wall' street by sur prise and caused a break in stocks. For several weeks there had been n persistent report in Wall street that truce had been arralgned between the administration and the powerful interests which have been promoting the bull movement in stocks by the terms of which support was to be given to the Taft candidacy.
 The fact that no new prosecutions have been begun this spring by the authorities at Washington increased Wall streets faith in the truth of the truce yarn. It hns been helping the big interests to advance the market i'm the full confidence that President Roosevelt favored a rise fin stock values on the theory that it would help in the restoration of business confidence and assist in the election of his candidate.

IN AN AUTOMOBILE
Winner of ihe Briarcliife Race and Ills Bride Will Spend
 Their Honeymoon.

Stamford, May 23.-John H. Ty- son, who won the recent Briarcliffe race sstarted this afternoon on his wedding trip in the car that won the race, and bestowed the trophy upon his bride as wedding present. The plan was to. travel some distance in the racing car and then to change to a smaller touring car, in which the couple will make their honeymoon journey, which is to include so- journ in Atlantic City. Their home is in Riverside, near here.
 The wedding of Miss Grace Ethel Starr, daughter of Commodore All fred Russell Starr of the Riverside Yacht club, to John H. Tyson, took place at 11:30 a. m. to-day at the home of the brides father, Brook ridge in Greenwich. It was attended by few outside of the immediate rela- tives. Rev Richard Golden, rector of the Episcopal church at Larch- mont, offiicated. There were no bridesmaids. The brides dress was of white silk, and she wore tulle veil. The couple stood, while the ceremony was being performed, un- der a canopy formed of pink roses, carnations and green plants. A wed- ding breakfast was served and in the afternoon the couple departed.
 Miss Starr, who like MT Tyson, is an enthusiastic motorist, was present at the Briarcilff race and saw the big car which was to be her first bridal chariot win the trophy that Tyson had intended for her wedding pres ent. She has ridden in it many times since.

TILT AT DINNER
Candidate Bryan and Ba Dker Forgsn Disagree at Chica-
 60 Banquet
WHAT CAUSED ROW

Chicago, May 23.-A spirited tit between William J. Bryan and Will liam B. Forgan, president of the First National bank of Chicago, was a feature last night at the dinner at the Bankers club of Chicago in the Auditorium annex. MT Bryan in tie course of an address to the bankers said:
 It appeared in the Walsh case here in Chicago that the law as to loaning by national banks is Glrec- tory only and that no penalty is at tached for the loan of more than 10 per cent of the banks capital and surplus to one individual.
 No penalty, at least except such as may be imposed in che discretion of the comptroller. And what is the situation? If bank loans more than the prescribed 10 per cent, it is notified not to do it again. If the bank continues to loan more than 10 per cent 1t is again notified not to do it. If 1t keeps on 1t keeps on being notified
 Am I not right?" A group of bankers and business men Tn the rear of the room laughed. This was too much for MT Forgan, who had shown several indications in earlier parts of the speech of not being ill accord with the speaker.
 But the law has been changed" :" said MT Forgan, who apparently did not hear MT Bryan use the words capital and surplus" In leading up to his point
 The law now forbids loaning 10 per cent on capital and sulplus."
 And is there any penalty?" do- manded MT Bryan in an aggressive voice.
 There is no penalty said MT Forgan, but the law is now en- forced"
 Mir Bryan leaned forward and ex- tended his arm into his fighting posi- tion. Will anyone tell me that the law was enforced in New York dur ing the panic?" he cried.
 He waited. There was no answer.
 T will stake my reputation, cried Mir Bryan, more yehemently than ever and speaking slowly, that tho law was not enforced in New York during the panic.'
 Another pause. The room was en- tirely quiet. Bankers looked at Mir Forgan. MT Forgan looked at the pink carnation before him. Mir Bryan regarded the chandelier.
 And l will say further" resumed MT Bryan, smilingly, that if the law had been enforced in New York during the panic the panic would have been great deal worse"
 Everybody laughed at that, in- cluding MT Forgan, and the atmos- phere became clear again.
 Mir Bryan then proceeded to un- fold his theory that the criminal law should be applied to bankers who infringe the 10 per cent provision.
