Editor Talks of Killing of Steinheil,

Paris-The declaration of Henry Rochefort, editor of the Patrie, that the recent murder of Adolphe Steinheil, an artist, and his mother-in- law, Mime. Japy, was political crime, has aroused a storm of comment and today Rochefort is being called on either to prove his assertion or re- tract.
 The police laugh at Rochefort's statement and say they are but part of his plan of opposing the Clemen- ceau government at every opportu- nifty. Rochefort asserts that Parisians are menaced by a sort of Mafia, and that the moment any citizen becomes possessed of informati0n of damag- ing character against the government he runs the risk of being murdered in short order

Accused Representative Says Men Who Voted True Bill Are

Norwalk, Ohio-As result of the grand jury investigation of the recent failure of the Ohio Trust Company, four prominent citizens are under indictment, including J. F. Lan- ing, republican congressman from the 14th Ohio district, and already renom- mated by the district convention.
 The others indicted are James G Gibbs, F. w. Christian and William Perrin. These charges are made against Laning:
 Inducing people to deposit money in the Ohio Trust Company by false statements.
 Appropriating stock owned by the sonal loans.
 Fraud in the lease of the Harry French property, Cleveland, to the Bond Building Company, which bor- rowed money on the property and finally sold all of its sG0O00 stock to the bank
 Laning charges that the grand jury was made up from his enemies and says he is innocent and will not re- sign from the ticket but will fight the charges to a finish.
 Other indictments probably will fol- low the inquiry now being made by the jurors into the failure of the Nor walk Savings Bank.
