of Cashier of KenOsha
Bank.

BOSTON, Mass July SO.-According to
the police. Harvey T. Wells, formerly
cashier of the First National bank, Ken
osha Wis. who was arrested here last
night, confessed today that he had taken
about 5000 from the bank. He gave As
the reason his desire to marry Miss Flor
ence e. Winniston, the daughter OF a
wealthy retired trader OF London, whom
he had met in Chicago. He stated, the po-
lice say, that for a time he took small
sums and in September, 1901 eloped with
Miss winston to New York. where they
were married. Mrs. Wells went TO England
and Wells returned TO Kenosha Shortly
afterwards. he is said to have told the
police, he took IS, 200 in a lump sum, left
his home joined his wife in England, and
together they went on a tour Of the British
Isles. Then they came to Montreal, when
their money gave out. Wells confessed to
his wife. and they resolved TO come to
Boston, get work and pay back the money
to the bank. They did this, buying out a
lodging house with money obtained by SELL
ing Mrs. Wells jewels, while Wells found
a position in Cambridge. Then the arrest
put an end to their dreams.
Mrs. Wells visited her husband in the
Tombs today and gave him pathetic assur-
auce that ahe would stand by him. Wells
says that ne will not oppose extradition,
but will go back TO Wisconsin and throw
| himself on the mercy Of the court

walton of PoIIsh Priest.

CHICAGO, July 3O.-with a parade of Do
900 men in uniform, the blare Of bands, the
thrill of fireworks, the glare of light, the
gayety of flags and bunting and gala at
tire, the pealng of church bells, the JOY of
feastlng, the excitement of oratory and
bursts OF song, neari, 1880 nan women
and children reveled last night IN one OF
the most remarkable festivals that Chicago
ever has seen.
Practically every one Of the thousands
of Chicago people of Polish descent was
actively, vociferously hllariously celebrat-
ing through the streets
Uniformed societies from every one of the
thirty-two Polish parishes in the city
formed a great prade and escorted from one
to another of the four churches of the prin-
cipal Polish district the cause of the DEM
onstration, the Rt. Rev. Paul Peter Rhode,
the new auxiliary bishop of Chicago, and
first Polish-American elevated to the epis-
copacy Of the Roman Catholic church. A
dramatic incident which marked his con-
secration was eagerly discussed last night
by the celebrators.
When the clergy at the cathedral, formed
in an impressive procession, rich with the
color of the vestments crucifixes and GRO
ziers, to leave the church the choir
through with the sacred ritual Of the conse-
Grafton, swung enthusiastically yet prayer
fully into the strains Of God Save Poland"
the national hymn of the Polish people.
Every Polish speaking person in the
cathedral, men and women, priests and
the bishop elect, took up the song. All Of
them were deeply touched and many wept.

MRS. GUINNESS WAS POISONED
Chicago Specialist Completes Anal
ysis of stomach of La Porte
Woman and Children.

LAPORTE, Ind, July 30-Coroner Mack
announced today that DR.. Walter Haines
of Rush Medical college, Chicago, who
analysed the stomach of Andrew Helgelien
of Aberdeen, s. d., the last victim of Mrs
Belle Guinness finding strychnine and
arsenic in fatal doses, has also found in
the stomachs of Mrs. Guinness and two
of the children arsenic and strychnine in
quantities sufficient to have caused death
Attorney Worden, who represented Lam
phere, charged with the Guinness murders
and with being an accomplice of Mrs. Gun
ness In the Helgelin death, declares that
the discovery shows that his client could
have had nothing to do with the death of
the woman and her children.
AS the result of the finding the lawyer
this afternoon announced that he would
at once prepare papers to go before the
circuit court and either ask for the re-
lease of Lamphere upon a writ of hab as
corpus or would ask for the reduction Of
bail.
The county officers who are working on
the Guinness case, this afternoon issued a
formal statement, in which they say:
The report of Dr. Haines that he found
arsenic and stryehnine in the bodies of
Mrs. Guinness and her two children, makes
1t absolutely a sure thing that MIS-. Gun
ness is dead, which position the public will
remember, has been maintained all the
time by the sheriff's office and the prose-
cutor's office. Whether Mrs Guinness killed
herself or not Is a mooted question. We
hope now that this report will set at rest
the wagging tongues of few who have
seen fit to declare that Mrs. Guinness is
still alive, for the seeming purpose of Gre
ating sentiment TO that effect Just what
effect this report may have upon tbs trial
of the case against Ray Lamphere, We are
unprepared to say at this time.

bryan ON HEARST PLATFORM
Declares Many PIRnIxs Are Similar to
Democratic Creed.

FAIRVIEW LINCOLN, Neb. July SO.-
Although the heat was most oppressive ut
Fairview this morning, Mr.. Bryan was
early In his office and at work. After read
ing the platform adopted by the independ-'
ence party in Chicago, he gave out the
following statement:
ut contains number of planks which
to the panks of the democratic platform.
For instance, It demands the election of
senators by the direct vote of the people,
as the democratic platform does its tariff
plank Is quite like our tariff plank, its
plank on the trusts. while opposing private
monopoly, is not specific as ours; its
railroad plank does not differ much from
ours; its plank on Asiatc immigration is
quite similar, and its labor plank, like
ours, contains a declaration in favor of
trial by jury and in regard to the exemp-
tion of labor organizations from the opera
tion of antitrust laws Like our platform.
1t condemns the extravaganza of the re-
publican party and demands greater econ
omy. 1t does not advocate however, the
establishment of a department of labor
with a secretary in the cabinet; It does not
oppose Imperialism. which has been used
to Justify the increase In our standing army,
and its plank as to publicity of campaign
ours"
No attempt will be made by Mr.. Bryan
