THE RIO CRANDE

CONTRACTS
Especial to The Sentinel. }

Denver, May 6.-The first move
looking toward the settlement of the
Denver & Rio Grande strike oc-
CURED last night when the company
made new contracts with a commit
tee representing the car repairers
and inspectors.
The contracts, which become eff
fective May / to December 81, and
are practically the same as the con-
tracts which were abrogated by the
railroad company ON March Is, were
signed by e. A. Welby, general su-
perintendent, and t. B. Purves, su-
perintendent of motive power, for
the company, and Frank l.. Rome
mus, j. H. Phelps. vice president,
and Oscar Boiling, for the car men.
Preparations have been made for
calling all of the car men out on
strike, but the signing of the con-
tracts has prevented this step.
The contracts of the car men were
abrogated at the same time as were
the contracts of the machinists, boil
ermakers and blacksmiths who are
now on strike. and the new attitude
of the company opens the way for
settlement of all troubles.

La Porte, Ind, May 6.-The dis
covery of the bodies at the Guinness
home has led an expressman to tell
of the delivery of many trunks to
the farm house during the last six
months, and this fact has caused the
police to work on the theory that
the place was clearing house OF
murders. They suspect that wealthy
persons after being lured to Chica-
go and killed, were packed in these
trunks and sent here to be buried.
Two of Mrs. Guinness husbands
died under suspicious circumstances,
both meeting violent deaths.
The first, Max Sorenson. was in
sured for sS,500, and the second,
Guinness, for $500.
This insurance was paid In both
cases to the widow.
Sorenson died several years ago,
while the family lived at Austin, Ill.
His death was said to have been due
to heart failure, but relatives said
that he had been poisoned. An in
quest was ordered some time after
the body had been buried but for
some reason the body was never dis
inferred by the authorities.
While a resident of Austin, Mrs.
Sorensons home was burned, and,
while some question as to the origin
of the fire arose, the insurance was
collected. r
