SEVERE BLOW TO
LAMPHER Theory
PROSECUTION NOW WILLING TO
SAY THAT THEY HAVE PROOF
HE VISITED THE GUINNESS
FARM HOUSE.

LA PORTE, Ind, May 21.-That
RAY Lamphere, held in Jail on sus-
picion of having caused the deaths
of Mrs. Guinness and others at the
Guinness farm, may have returned
to the home of Elizabeth Smith
after setting fire to the Guinness
house and then made another start
for the Wheatbrook farm. where he
was employed, is a new theory ad-
vanced by the state.
Representatives of the prosecu-
tion profess to have discovered EVIL
dence to show that not only was
Lamphere seen to go towards the
Guinness house at about $3.50 on the
morning Of April 28 but that he
was also seen to retrace his steps.
This was at about the time that
other witnesses will testify they saw
fire shooting from the Guinness
house.
This new theory is that after re-
turning to the Smith house Lam
phere made a fresh start for the
country about an hour after the first
departure, but that on his second
trip he took the Guenther road,
from which he could have seen the
fire.
If the state is able to fully sup
port this theory it will be blow
to Lamphere's defense. for the &C
cused is somewhat relying on an ALI
bi that will show that he went
north that morning on the Guen-
ther road about an hour after the
fire was started.
Mrs. H. Whittier of Toledo. O., ar
rived today to investigate whether
her daughter, who in 1902 attended
the University of Valparaiso. 10
miles west of La Porte, was among
Mrs. Guinness victims. The girl
disappeared from school after writ
ing her mother that she was going
on visit. She was never heard oi
afterwards.
